Chapter 122 A Trip to the Military Camp
Yang Jianwu and Puyang Xuan stayed at the Medicine King's Hall for two days before bidding farewell to the old physician and leaving. Even the fastest phantom was still a horse, not as fast as Xiaobai's flight. To ensure they could rejoin the escort team on time, they couldn't linger.
Before leaving, Yang Jianwu left Chang Qing copies of "The Complete Collection of Poisonous Herbs" and "The Classic of Herbs". Since she had become his master, she couldn't just leave him without teaching him anything. Chang Qing was very perceptive, and he would surely achieve some success by studying on his own. She would then give him some pointers.
Chang Qing took the two books, and after flipping through a few pages, his excitement was indescribable. Pu Yangxuan curiously leaned over to take a look. He wasn't interested in the "Compendium of Herbs," but he was captivated by the food incompatibilities chapter in the "Compendium of Poisons." He kept pestering Yang Jianwu to have a copy as well.
"Sword Dance, could you also send me a copy of 'The Complete Guide to Poison'?"
"there is none left……"
"Sword Dance, may I borrow yours to take a look?"
“Mine is a unique copy, one of a kind, I’m afraid it will get damaged…”
"Sword Dance, I can copy it myself, can you please not refuse..."
“Puyang Xuan, I’ve finally realized that you can turn into a chatterbox every time you want to achieve your goal!”
Puyang Xuan looked puzzled. "What is a chatterbox?"
Yang Jianwu stared at the sky speechlessly...
The two kept each other company, bickering and teasing each other, so they weren't lonely. When they came to a field, Yang Jianwu slowed down, and Puyang Xuan slowed down as well.
"Sword Dance, what are you looking at?"
Puyang Xuan followed Yang Jianwu's gaze and saw several children from ordinary families picking things up in the fields, which were probably leftover grains or wild vegetables.
"Puyang Xuan, do you know where the crabs at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet came from?"
Yang Jianwu's gaze never left the children, and worry flashed in her eyes.
Puyang Xuan didn't understand what Yang Jianwu wanted to ask, so he answered truthfully.
"I don't know, didn't you specially ask someone to deliver it?"
Yang Jianwu shook his head, "Those were secretly planted in the crops of Hanling County by the people of Nanyue, but my subordinates just happened to discover it!"
"How could such a thing happen!"
Although Puyang Xuan was an assassin, he also loved Dongli at the national level, and he was very angry when he heard about Nan Yue's actions.
"If it hadn't been discovered in time, the harvest near Hanlingjun would have been reduced. With reports going up through the ranks of government and imperial orders being issued step by step, by the time the court's support arrived, at least half the people would have already lost heart..."
"Sword Dance..."
Puyang Xuan clearly sensed the sorrow emanating from Yang Jianwu, but he didn't know how to comfort her.
"Actually, you've gotten your revenge. They sent crabs that destroyed the crops, but you turned them into a feast. Not only did you not lose any grain, you even made a small profit. If the emperor of Nanyue knew about this, he'd probably be furious!"
Yang Jianwu realized that the poisoning incident in Lucheng was also the work of Nan Yue, along with the previous Gu worms! Her disgust for Nan Yue rose even higher!
Were these events simply a coincidence that she encountered them, or were they destined to be resolved by her?
Thinking of the excellent seed inside the red jade inlaid with silver bracelet, Luo Qi, who was unable to open the bracelet due to his injury, originally intended to keep it as a memento, but unexpectedly the bracelet recognized him as its owner and opened it.
Her arrival here may not have been accidental; fate had already made arrangements.
She can't change the status quo on her own. Mo Ye is a good choice. He will have more leverage, which will be a guarantee no matter what position he holds in the future!
"Puyang Xuan, let's go to the military camp!"
"Military camp?"
"Yes, go to the military camp and find Mo Ye!"
Pu Yangxuan felt a little annoyed. "Why are you looking for him? Aren't you supposed to meet up with your uncle first?"
Yang Jianwu gave him a disdainful look. "Of course I have something to ask him. Also, Ta Xue is his prized horse. I forcibly borrowed it from him back then, so I have to return it to him."
Pu Yangxuan's mind immediately started working, and his tone carried a hint of smugness, "Yes, yes, yes, we should return what we borrow from others in time. Later, we can ride the Phantom together to find Uncle, and you can have an easier time."
"Hehe~ I appreciate you thinking of me!"
Damn it, you're sneaking up on me in this roundabout way. Don't think I don't know what you're up to!
Ever since she learned of Puyang Xuan's feelings, Yang Jianwu has always tried to keep her distance from him, but he is shameless and keeps trying to get closer to her!
After learning the formations, Han Zhao did not go to Yunzhi with Prince Ning, but returned to the military camp to begin simple formation training.
When Yang Jianwu and Puyang Xuan arrived at the military camp, Han Zhao had just finished a day of training. Hong Nan and Hong Bei, upon hearing that Yang Jianwu had arrived, also came to greet her along with Han Zhao.
Now, in their eyes, Miss Yang is even more formidable than Prince Ning. Although they know such comparisons are somewhat inappropriate, Miss Yang has just too many admirable qualities! They even envy Hong Dian for being able to stay by Miss Yang's side...
"Miss Yang, you must be tired from your journey. Please come with me to the camp to rest. I will arrange for someone to set up your tent right away. It will be the same place you stayed last time. Is that alright with you?"
"Commander Han, you're too kind. Just arrange it as you see fit."
Han Zhao noticed Puyang Xuan. He had seen Luo Li, a guard by Miss Yang's side, back in General Yang Boshan's camp.
"Miss Han, who is this young man? This is a military camp, and outsiders are not allowed to enter!"
"Oh, that……"
“I am Miss’s bodyguard. I was on a mission before, so we haven’t met. If it’s inconvenient for me to go in, I can stand guard outside the military camp. This time, I’m here to escort Miss to meet up with Yang Jianjun. If Miss doesn’t leave, I can’t leave either.”
Puyang Xuan was worried that Yang Jianwu would send him away first, so he quickly took over the conversation. He had followed her as a guard in the Medicine King Hall before, and no one had mentioned it. However, this identity was permitted, and it was quite convenient to use now.
Upon hearing that he was Yang Jianwu's personal guard, Han Zhao had no reason not to let him in. "Since you are Miss Yang's guard, you are certainly allowed to enter. I will have someone arrange for you to stay in a tent near Miss Yang's."
Puyang Xuan refused with a smile, "No need for such trouble. I'll be wherever Miss is. She's resting inside the tent, and I'll be guarding outside!"
"Uh..." Yang Jianwu was a little startled. What was wrong with this guy now?!
Puyang Xuan smiled at Yang Jianwu without offering any further explanation.
This is Prince Ning's military camp. If Jianwu arrives, someone will definitely notify Moye. No matter where he stays, he can't always follow Jianwu. But now it's different. Even if Moye comes, he can still guard Jianwu's door to prevent them from meeting in private, and he can even show off in front of Moye! Brilliant! Brilliant!
