Chapter 373 Why Are You Running Away?
When Nan Jiao entered, Murong Yan was sitting on the couch, and Su Qiluo was standing beside him with red eyes. She looked at his arm, which the imperial physician had already treated.
"This is an ointment I developed myself. It is very effective in healing wounds." Nan Jiao walked forward and placed the ointment on the table next to her.
"Thank you." Murong Yan looked at the bottle of ointment without any emotion in his heart.
Based on his understanding of her.
She just didn't want to owe anyone a favor, so she came to the East Palace to see him.
Nan Jiao found a place to sit down casually, "When did the Wei State send the brown bear to the Chu State?"
"Wei State brought them to celebrate my father's birthday three months ago. They were very good at performing and attracted a lot of people's praise, so Wei State gave them to Chu State." Murong Yan said.
"There's something wrong with Xiong." There was a hint of coldness in Nan Jiao's almond-shaped eyes.
From the previous inspection.
The bear must have been fed the medicine for more than three months, so if it wasn't the State of Chu, then it must have been the State of Wei!
Seven countries.
The State of Wei ranked sixth and was not very prominent. It was usually very low-key, did not participate in any wars, and was very well-behaved.
"What's the problem?" Murong Yan's expression turned serious. During this period of time, the three bears had been kept in a place in the back mountain of the garden.
There were never any problems and no one was hurt.
Nan Jiao looked at him sharply, "Prince, are you in Chu State researching and making medicine men?"
"No." Murong Yan said with certainty.
Nan Jiao stared at him without saying a word, wondering if he was lying.
Seeing her unwillingness to believe, Murong Yan's elegant and noble face turned a little angry, "I can assure you that there is no one who raises medicine in the Chu State."
"Maybe someone raised it secretly and you didn't know about it." Nan Jiao stroked her chin and said thoughtfully, although the bear was raised by Wei Guo.
It also does not completely mean that the medicine man has nothing to do with the State of Chu.
"Is the bear related to the medicine man?" Although Murong Yan had a guess in his mind, he still wanted to hear what she said.
"Medicine men are made by feeding them medicine. They have strong fighting and killing power. The fighting power of this bear is much stronger than the bears I have encountered before."
"I checked its body and found medicine in its body. It should be the same method used to treat the medicine man." Nan Jiao said coldly with no expression on her face.
Murong Yan's face turned pale, "I will investigate this matter thoroughly."
"The Beiqi City of Qin State is on the border with the Chu State. The villagers of a village were refined into medicine men. I always thought that they were medicine men raised by the Chu State." Nan Jiao did not hide this matter.
If it weren't for the State of Chu, the relationship between the two countries could have been eased.
After all, it was the people of Qin who were harmed.
"Chu State did not do such a thing." Murong Yan said firmly, at least he did not arrange for Chu State to raise medicine people.
"It's not that Chu is the best!" Nan Jiao said coldly.
Murong Yan pursed his lips and looked at her calmly, "Is this the reason you keep your distance from me?"
Nan Jiao rolled her eyes at him, "Yes, but the main reason is that I am the Princess of Jin, and I hope the Crown Prince will avoid suspicion and not affect my reputation."
"I didn't do anything out of line." Murong Yan said calmly.
"It's better to keep it this way, otherwise that day will be the day we become enemies." Nan Jiao warned. They had been together for a month.
If possible, she didn't want them to become mortal enemies.
As for if Qin and Chu go to war in the future, they will each defend their own country based on their own abilities.
Murong Yan: “…”
"I believe the murderer who let the bear out today is the Fifth Princess. There must be something wrong with her maid." Nan Jiao sneered bloodthirstyly.
"Do you believe what that servant said?" Murong Yan turned the jade ring on his thumb.
"A servant boy would certainly not dare to speak nonsense. Instead of suspecting a servant boy, it would be better for Your Highness to find out the truth as soon as possible." Nan Jiao said in a cold voice.
Murong Yan promised her: "I won't let you be bullied in vain."
Nan Jiao stood up and said, "I hope so. Take good care of yourself. I'm going back now."
"Your Highness, I will take my leave as well." Su Qiluo said.
Murong Yan waved his hands.
Nan Jiao left with Su Qiluo.
The two of them didn't speak all the way until they left the East Palace. Su Qiluo finally spoke, "Princess Jin, I really didn't know that the Fifth Princess would release a bear."
"I believe this has nothing to do with you." Nan Jiao raised her red lips.
"It was the Fifth Princess who asked me to take you to see the flowers, but I have no ill will towards you. Your Highness, I will not do anything to hurt you." Su Qiluo didn't want her to misunderstand.
I met Murong Xi that day.
She said that just to make her feel that she was on the same side as her.
Nan Jiao looked into her eyes and said, "I believe you."
Su Qiluo's heart moved slightly, her eyes were a little sad, and she chuckled, "You have to be careful of the Fifth Princess. She wants to drag me into dealing with you."
"It's indeed her!" Two sharp cold rays of light flashed from Nan Jiao's beautiful eyes.
"Anyway, you should be careful." Su Qiluo could only remind her that she couldn't help her openly because the fifth princess' mother was the favored Concubine Hua Gui.
The Hua family has been a family of court officials in the capital of the Chu State for a hundred years.
"Okay." Nan Jiao's face was cold and fierce.
After the two separated.
Nan Jiao quickly returned to Wutong Courtyard. The brown bear's body was still in the room, but Zhan Beiheng was not in the room. She searched the yard but couldn't find him.
Where did this bastard go!
Until the evening, after she came out of the shower, Zhan Beiheng had not come back.
Nan Jiao was getting a little impatient waiting. Although she knew nothing would happen to him, she still couldn't help but worry. After all, this was the capital of the Chu State.
Just as she was about to go out, she saw the man hurriedly walk in.
She rushed over quickly, punched him directly, and cursed with a cold face: "Asshole, I told you to wait for me obediently, why are you running around!"
Zhan Beiheng held her in his arms and lowered his head to press his cheek against hers. "I went out to do something and was delayed, so I came back so late."
Nan Jiao pushed him away and walked towards her room angrily.
Zhan Beiheng followed.
Nan Jiao turned around and looked at him, "You can live next door."
"No, we are husband and wife." Zhan Beiheng was not willing to sleep separately from her. Now that he was no longer affected by the life and death dragon, he was not afraid to sleep with her in his arms.
"You are a servant now!" Nan Jiao reminded him.
Zhan Beiheng suddenly picked her up and walked towards the big bed, "Then let the servant serve you."
Nan Jiao's mouth twitched slightly, "Don't even think about taking advantage of me!"
"I'll let you take advantage of me." Zhan Beiheng put her on the bed, leaned over and was about to kiss her.
"You stink!" Nan Jiao covered his mouth with her hand.
Zhan Beiheng smelled himself and indeed smelled a bit unpleasant, "I'm going to take a shower."
Nan Jiao said disdainfully, "Hurry up, there is hot water in the bathing area over there, go and take a shower."
She knew he would come back.
I asked someone to prepare hot water. I guess it was not very hot at this time, but there was nothing I could do. If I asked someone to bring water over again, it would arouse suspicion.
Zhan Beiheng kissed her on the cheek and said in a deep voice: "Wait for me to come back."
