Chapter 135 What's Wrong with Him?
"My dears, stay at home. We will be back soon and your father will come to see you soon." Nan Jiao said while looking at the two children.
Baoer and Youyou nodded obediently.
After letting Mo Li and Mo Ran take care of the children, Nan Jiao took Gu Feng, Jiang Yu and the people from Miaojiang to the holy mountain.
The Holy Mountain is some distance away from the palace where the Miao King lives, but not too far. It is just behind the palace. You can smell all kinds of scents before you get close.
Has a floral scent.
Smells like medicine.
There are other weird flavors.
After entering the holy mountain, Nan Jiao concentrated on looking for the flying frost grass and wood tail flower. Jiang Yu followed her closely, not daring to stay too far away from her.
"Why are you so close to me?" Nan Jiao frowned and looked at him.
"I, I will help you find herbs!" Jiang Yu said with his chest straightened.
Nan Jiao said with a wry smile, "You didn't even ask me what the herb is, how can you help me find it?"
Jiang Yu's face was filled with embarrassment, and he almost blushed.
"The frost grass is purple, with long, thin leaves, and the wood tail flower is a velvety strip, as long as a finger. Do you remember that?"
"I'll remember that." Jiang Yu said.
"Go find it."
Jiang Yu: “…”
Are you going to separate from him?
He didn't dare to walk alone. After all, he didn't know anything about poison. There were poisonous spiders and insects crawling around on the ground. He regretted coming to Miaojiang.
This is really not a place for people to stay!
Gu Feng looked at them and continued to look for two medicinal herbs.
When the sun is about to set.
The three of them found Flying Frost Grass and Wood Tail Flower. Nan Jiao also picked some other rare and precious medicinal herbs. Anyway, they didn't forbid her to pick other things.
Zhan Beiheng had agreed to the five-year treaty, so she couldn't suffer too much.
Arrived at the exit of the holy mountain.
Nan Jiao looked at the empty road, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable in her heart. She didn't know what she was expecting, as she and Zhan Beiheng had no feelings for each other.
He doesn't need to be with her all the time.
She shouldn't depend on him.
After thinking about this, she calmed down and walked quickly towards the palace.
After Nan Jiao arrived at her residence, Zhan Beiheng had not returned yet. She was a little surprised. What was the matter he mentioned? Why had he not returned for so long?
She asked Gu Feng to help her prepare the herbs and then went straight outside.
Although it was her first time to visit the palace where the Miao King lived, she memorized all the routes she had walked today and she did not go to look for Xiao Fusheng.
Instead, he went to the temple.
There were guards at the entrance of the temple. Nan Jiao asked someone to go in and report that she had something to discuss with the high priest.
The guard came out quickly and motioned for her to go in.
Nan Jiao raised her eyebrows, feeling a little surprised. She didn't expect the other party would agree to let her in.
After all, this is the holy temple of Miaojiang.
Looking at the patterns on the wall, she still felt uncomfortable, but she had to suppress it because she had to go in to see the high priest.
"Princess Jin is here to see Prince Jin?"
Xiao Yan personally went to the door of the hall to greet her and looked at the woman with a smile in his eyes.
Nan Jiao did not answer him, but carefully looked at this ancient and mysterious hall, with a very strange feeling in her heart.
This feeling made her very uncomfortable and she wanted to leave as soon as possible.
But she couldn't leave yet.
"No, I'm here to see you, the High Priest." Nan Jiao looked into his eyes and said.
"Looking for me?" Xiao Yan asked in surprise.
Nan Jiao pursed her red lips and asked, "Is the poison of the Jin prince very difficult to cure?"
"Why do you ask?" Xiao Yan smiled and motioned her to follow him in. He took her to the inner hall.
"Can you really cure his snake poison?" Nan Jiao frowned.
The reason she asked this was that she felt Zhan Beiheng was a little strange.
Although there is no emotion between the two.
But when they were in Kitazaki Castle, he always insisted on following her wherever she went. If she hadn't threatened him, he wouldn't have stayed in the general's mansion to recuperate.
But we arrived in Miaojiang.
After he met the high priest, she said she wanted to go to the holy mountain to get medicine to cure her sobbing throat, but he was unmoved.
He said he had something to do, but he hasn't returned yet.
She had to wonder.
Have to think more.
"I can assure Princess Jin that as long as Prince Jin cooperates with my treatment, he will be fine. But if he doesn't, the snake poison will break out." Xiao Yan said solemnly.
"Really?" Nan Jiao didn't know whether she should believe him.
"I can swear to God." Xiao Yan said seriously, because he really did not lie. As long as Zhan Beiheng was not tempted, he would be fine.
Nan Jiao frowned as she saw how serious he was.
Is she overthinking?
What's wrong with him that he suddenly changes his style of behavior?
"Prince Jin is not with you?" Nan Jiao asked.
"He should be discussing things with King Miao. Has Princess Jin collected the necessary herbs?" Xiao Yan's eyes were bright and it seemed that she had.
"Thank you, I got the herbs I wanted and picked some others. I hope the high priest won't mind?" Nan Jiao said with a harmless smile.
Xiao Yan's mouth twitched slightly, "Just pick it, the Miao King won't care."
Nan Jiao smiled, "If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
"Wait." Xiao Yan called her.
Nan Jiao looked at him.
"Is the Princess of Jin from the capital of Qin?" Xiao Yan pretended to be curious. He wanted to know her origins. Shouldn't she have been born in Miaojiang?
"Why does the high priest suddenly ask this?" Nan Jiao said with a faint smile.
Xiao Yan stroked his beard and said, "It is well known that the King of Jin is the God of War of Qin. Everyone knows this. Everyone will be interested in the princess he married."
"I am the fifth daughter of General Jiang's mansion in the capital. I have a bad reputation. The marriage was arranged by the retired emperor, otherwise I would not have married him." Nan Jiao said in a calm voice.
"So she's a lady from a general's mansion. It seems that the Princess of Jin is also knowledgeable in martial arts and is a good match for the Prince of Jin." Xiao Yan said with a smile on his face, but he was surprised in his heart.
Is she really the daughter of the general's mansion?
How come people from Miaojiang are in the General's Mansion?
Her life and death dragon is a good proof that she has Miao blood flowing in her body, otherwise she would not have been born with the life and death dragon.
Only those who have had skin-to-skin contact with her can have the dragonfly enter their body.
If they want to completely free themselves from the evil, they can only choose one life and one death.
"We are not a match." Nan Jiao said indifferently. Although they got along pretty well after they reached an agreement some time ago, they were just pretty good.
"I think you two are a good match. Do you want me to take you to see Prince Jin?" Xiao Yan said enthusiastically.
Nan Jiao smiled at him, "The high priest is so enthusiastic towards every outsider? Your behavior makes me suspect that you have other intentions."
She said it very directly.
Xiao Yan listened to her words, and the corner of his mouth twitched. "It seems that Princess Jin is a sensitive and suspicious person. Not everyone can make me passionate. I have a crush on you."
"Is the medicine for King Jin ready?" Nan Jiao asked.
"It may take several days. Princess Jin, you can play here for a few days." Xiao Yan hoped that she could stay in Miaojiang for more time.
As for the identity of the Holy Maiden of Miao.
He didn't want to tell her now unless she broke up with Zhan Beiheng.
