Chapter 365 She Has Morals, But Not Many
"Fifth Princess, I may not be able to take you there." The monk said apologetically.
"Why can't you take me with you?" Murong Xi was furious. Wuliang Temple was a temple exclusively for the royal family of Chu State, and she was the fifth princess.
Why can the prince go but she can't?
"That is the important place of Wuliang Temple. No one else can go there except the Emperor and the Crown Prince." The monk said solemnly.
"Why can the Princess of Jin, an outsider from Qin, go?" There was a sinister coldness in Murong Xi's eyes.
The monk pursed his lips and said, "She was brought in by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Murong Xi: "..."
So she, the fifth princess of the Chu State, is not even as good as an outsider.
Next second.
She took her maid to look for it. They had to find the Bodhi tree and pick the Bodhi roots in advance.
As she was walking.
I saw Murong Yan and Jiang Nanjiao walking out from a distance.
"Crown Prince, where have you been? I've been looking for you." Murong Xi ran towards them with a well-behaved and gentle smile.
"Have you finished praying?" Murong Yan's voice was as cold as thousand-year-old ice.
Murong Xi nodded, "Brother Crown Prince, I heard that the Bodhi root is about to mature. My mother is ill and needs the Bodhi root as medicine. Can you give it to me?"
"No, it belongs to Princess Jin." Murong Yan refused without hesitation.
"How could it belong to Princess Jin? Isn't it a treasure of our Chu royal family?" Murong Xi's beautiful eyes widened in shock.
"The prince used the Bodhi root as a prize for a medical competition. I came to Chu specifically to get the Bodhi root." Nan Jiao said clearly.
She guessed that she was here for the sake of Bodhi root.
It seems that Luo Jinshuang came to Chu State to look for her.
She really doesn't give up!
Murong Xi looked at Murong Yan, "Brother Crown Prince, how can you use Bodhi root as a prize for a medical competition?"
"Why not? Father agrees. If you have any opinions, you can go and tell him." Murong Yan's eyes were cold and arrogant, and his tone was harsh and frightening.
Murong Xi took a deep breath.
I didn't expect that he had already obtained the consent of his father. No wonder he dared to be so arrogant!
"I see." Murong Xi looked as if he understood, and then looked at Nan Jiao: "Princess Jin, when you get the Bodhi root, can you give me some?"
"No." Nan Jiao refused coldly.
"My mother is in poor health and urgently needs Bodhi roots." Murong Xi said pitifully.
"Does this have anything to do with me?" Nan Jiao asked in a cold voice.
Murong Xi was stunned. She didn't expect her to say such a cold-blooded thing. "You are a doctor. Are you going to watch someone die without saving him? Isn't it said that doctors have a kind heart?"
Nan Jiao raised her eyebrows.
This is an attempt to morally blackmail her, but she is totally wrong.
She has morals, but not many.
After all, not everyone can make her moral.
Murong Yan looked at Nan Jiao with a loving gaze, his face expressionless, wanting to know how she would respond to Murong Xi.
"There is only one Bodhi root. I want it to save people, so of course I can't share it with you." Nan Jiao said righteously.
"Can't you split it in half?"
"It will be ineffective if we separate them. Do you want me to stop treating my patient? The princess of Chu State shouldn't be so selfish and cruel, right?" Nan Jiao said with a harmless smile.
Murong Xi choked, and her mind raced, "The fact that Princess Jin was able to win the medical competition shows that you are a very good doctor. Can you please help my mother?"
"There are many powerful doctors in this medical competition. Luo Jinshuang, the apprentice of the island owner on the south bank of Penglai Island, is good. You can ask her to treat your mother."
Nan Jiao said with a half-smile that she was too lazy to help her, as she might end up framing her.
"My mother was seriously ill before and it was Miss Luo who treated her. I asked her to come this time, but she said she was helpless. Can you help me?" Murong Xi pleaded eagerly.
"I'm busy." Nan Jiao said, and strode out of the temple, not giving her any face at all.
Murong Yan looked at the woman's arrogant back, and curled the corners of his mouth silently. She was indeed still the same as before, doing whatever she wanted.
She will not heal anyone who makes her unhappy.
Murong Xi looked at Nan Jiao's receding back and almost tore the handkerchief in his hand into pieces. A trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and there was a coldness that was piercing to the bone.
…
Chu State, capital.
Nan Jiao was walking around alone. After leaving the palace, she asked Murong Yan to do his thing and she went back by herself. She had seen Bodhi root before.
The fruit skin has just turned yellow. It will not be fully ripe until it turns as golden as the leaves. I don’t know how many more days it will take.
She was anxious.
I don't want to stay in the capital of Chu for too long.
I just wanted to get my stuff and leave.
She didn't know what was going on with her grandfather, whether he had successfully seized the mine. She couldn't ask Murong Yan about it, as she thought he also wanted to seize the mine.
Walking.
She sensed a vague murderous aura.
Nan Jiao's face darkened, and she pretended not to notice and continued walking leisurely. When she felt someone approaching from behind, she turned around and stabbed fiercely with the dagger in her hand.
"You..." The middle-aged man's eyes widened and he looked at her in disbelief.
Nan Jiao pulled out the dagger with force.
With a bang.
The middle-aged man fell to the ground.
Nan Jiao slowly wiped the blood off the dagger with a handkerchief and sneered, "I lost my memory for four years, not that my strength declined for four years!"
The people around screamed in all kinds of ways after seeing the murder.
"How could you kill someone in the street?" someone in the crowd angrily accused.
Right after.
Others voiced accusations.
Nan Jiao glanced at them with a casual look, "Please help me report it to the authorities."
Everyone: “…”
She killed someone and even dared to report it to the police!
A moment later.
People from the Dali Temple are here.
"I heard that you killed someone in the street. Why did you kill someone?" Xu Yanzhi, the Junior Official of the Dali Temple, looked at Nan Jiao. Judging from her attire and demeanor, she must be someone with a high status.
Nan Jiao sneered: "I am the Princess of Jin of Qin State. I also want to know why he wants to kill me. Is this how you treat guests in Chu State?"
Xu Yanzhi's eyes widened slightly.
Some time ago, the news that the Princess of Qin was the leader of the Shura Sect was widely circulated, and it had spread almost throughout the capitals of the seven kingdoms.
Later.
Nan Jiao followed Xu Yanzhi to the Dali Temple, and the autopsy was completed quickly. It turned out that the middle-aged man was a martial artist and was not an ordinary citizen.
Xu Yanzhi walked towards Nan Jiao who was sitting leisurely. She was indeed the devil girl. Look at her calm look, she was something that no ordinary woman could compare to.
"Princess Jin, he really deserves to die. He actually wanted to destroy the relationship between Qin and Chu." Xu Yanzhi said with a smile. If she died in the capital of Chu.
The Qin State will certainly ask for an explanation.
"Can I go now?" Nan Jiao stood up.
"Okay, I'll send someone to escort you back." Xu Yanzhi naturally wouldn't stop her. It seemed that he had to report the matter quickly.
"Thank you." Nan Jiao stood up and walked outside, her eyes full of sternness.
…
The night is as cool as water.
Just as Nan Jiao was about to go to bed, she felt someone approaching the window. She reached out and grabbed the dagger under the pillow. It was really endless.
