After Chu Li finished speaking, several people in the hall dispersed to deal with important matters.

Huaying went to the courtyard first, and after taking Xiao Mu'er away from Qiqi, she used the invisible space to go to Prince Ning's Mansion in Xiyuan Kingdom.

...

When Mu Yunjin woke up, it was only four o'clock, the sky outside was a little bright, she turned her body, and found that she was the only one in the room.

Standing up to light the candles in the house, Mu Yunjin put on some clothes, walked to the door, opened the door, and there was no one in the yard.

Seeing this, Mu Yunjin frowned, guessing that Chu Li had already gone to Nanting Kingdom while she was asleep.

Just as she was thinking, a ray of light suddenly appeared in the room, and then Huaying's figure appeared in Mu Yunjin's room, holding the sleeping little Mu'er in her arms.

"Master..." Seeing Mu Yunjin standing at the door, Huaying called her softly.

Mu Yunjin was taken aback, and turned around.

"His Royal Highness King Ning and Huang Yan went to Donglin Country and Beiming Country respectively to see if there was any clue to buy the Heshan Lianren. An Guoshi went to Zhangzhou City to find his brother Bai to see if there was any clues to buy Heshan Lianren. Besides lotus, is there any other medicine to replace it?" Huaying told Mu Yunjin about Chu Li's whereabouts.

Mu Yunjin approached, and when she heard Huaying's words, she understood. While hugging little Mu'er and putting her on the bed, she said, "This plague in Gushan City may cause a headache for a long time."

"Yes, I heard that the master was injured last night?" Hua Ying looked at Mu Yunjin's left arm.

"It's okay, it's just a small injury." Mu Yunjin shook her left hand lightly, and found that it was nothing serious.

Huaying heard this and nodded, "Before I left, His Royal Highness King Ning entrusted me with a message that the master should stay in the mansion for two days and not wander around, lest the wound burst again."

"He looks at me like a child, did I make him so worried?" Mu Yunjin curled her lips.

Hua Ying chuckled, "In front of His Highness King Ning, the master is indeed more confused than usual."

"Oh?" Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows.

"The main reason is that I trust the other party too much, so when the other party is around, I always let go of my defenses, so I get hurt easily." Huaying checked Mu Yunjin's wound, and saw that the outside wound was well bandaged, so she went Also relieved.

Mu Yunjin pursed her lips and chuckled, and couldn't help teasing, "So in front of Huang Yan, are you also like this?"

Huaying blushed suddenly, lowered her eyes, "Master, don't make fun of me."

"I'll freshen up first, let's go eat something together later." Mu Yunjin said, then walked to the closet and chose a piece of clothing to change into.

...

In the early morning, Nanny Shen was busy in the mansion. Although Chu Li and Mu Yunjin were not at home, she still had to follow the rules and order someone to clean the mansion inside and out every day.

Only when cleaning the Liquan Pavilion, she would either clean it herself, or watch carefully from the sidelines. In short, she would not let any maidservant go in to clean it alone.

Just now when she came to Liquan Pavilion with a broom, she saw Mu Yunjin and Huaying pushing the door and coming out of the room, which startled her.

"Oh, princess, when did you come back? Why doesn't this maidservant know at all." Shen Momo was a little confused, put down the broom in her hand, and approached Mu Yunjin.

Mu Yunjin smiled at Nanny Shen, raised the corners of her lips, "I came back at midnight last night."

"So that's the case, what about His Highness and Xiao Shizi, did they come back together?" Mother Shen asked again.

"Little Mu'er fell asleep inside, and His Highness hasn't come back yet." Mu Yunjin said.

Shen Momo nodded knowingly, "Princess, please sit here for a while, and this servant will let the kitchen get some food."

After finishing speaking, Nanny Shen ran out of Liquan Pavilion.

Mu Yunjin and Huaying were sitting in the yard waiting, thinking of Fengxiu Mountain last night, Mu Yunjin looked at Huaying, "After breakfast, I want to go to Fengxiu Mountain to have a look."

Huaying nodded, "The sneak attacker stayed in the mountain last night, maybe he left some clues."

"I think so too. I mainly want to see if there are other ways to go up this mountain other than the normal way up the mountain, and to avoid the eyes and ears of the guards on the mountain." Mu Yunjin said leisurely.

While the two were chatting, Nanny Shen quickly brought the breakfast, and after putting the meals on the table one by one, Nanny Shen stood aside.

Mu Yunjin took a bowl of red bean porridge, ate it slowly, took a few mouthfuls, and looked at Madam Shen beside her, "Mama, has anything interesting happened in the past few days?"

"Interesting thing?" Shen Momo heard the words and thought about it carefully, "It's nothing interesting, but when I went out yesterday, I met the proprietress of a pharmacy, chatted a little bit, and heard something quite interesting. "

"What are you talking about?" Mu Yunjin's eyes flickered when she heard the word pharmacy, and she became interested.

Sister Shen smiled lightly, "When I was wandering around, my servant saw her walking out of a jewelry store with a rosy face yesterday, so my servant went up to her and asked her what happened. She was so happy."

"The proprietress said that the most expensive kind of medicinal material sold in her store is rarely bought by anyone. Yesterday, a buyer appeared and bought all the medicinal materials in one go. She earned nearly two hundred taels just yesterday. Yinzi, to make her happy, went straight out to buy jewelry and rouge."

Hearing this, Mu Yunjin and Huaying looked at each other, put down the spoon in their hands, and looked at Nanny Shen, "Then this is really strange, did the proprietress say what kind of person that buyer is?"

"Coincidentally, the servant girl was also curious at the time, who was so rich and paid two hundred taels of silver when they made a move. I asked the proprietress, and the proprietress said that he was a tall man, but judging from the accent, it seemed that he was not from the local area." Mother Shen road.

After finishing the words, he sighed again, "It seems that this person came from another place and was in a hurry to ask for medicine. Otherwise, he wouldn't have spent such a high price."

Mu Yunjin lowered her eyes and let her thoughts go blank. Up to now, she has come to two conclusions.

Men, not locals.

After thinking for a while, Mu Yunjin suddenly thought of a key point, "Nurse, which pharmacy is the proprietress of the pharmacy you're talking about?"

"That Wang Sheng medicine shop in the city." Shen Momo replied.

After finishing speaking, Mu Yunjin and Huaying stood up and said, "Let's go out for a while."

Then there was no sign of the two of them.

On the way out of the mansion, Mu Yunjin pursed her lips, clasped her hands together, and walked hurriedly, "Two hundred taels of silver is not a small amount, maybe from that silver, we can find some keys."

...

After a cup of tea, the two appeared at Wang Sheng Medicine Shop.

The proprietress was sitting in the shop eating melon seeds, when she raised her eyes and saw Mu Yunjin entering the door, she was startled and quickly stood up to greet her.

"Princess Ning, why are you here?" the proprietress said enthusiastically.

Mu Yunjin looked at the proprietress, raised the corners of her lips, pulled her to a corner, and lowered her voice, "I heard that someone bought two hundred taels of Heshan lotus from you yesterday?"

"That's right, this He Shan Lian, didn't His Royal Highness King Ning come to ask about it last night? It was also His Highness Ning Wang who was received by my husband." The proprietress thought that Mu Yunjin also came to buy He Shan Lian, and was a little surprised.

"I just want to ask some details, nothing else." Mu Yunjin smiled slightly.

The proprietress understood, "Then what does Princess Ning want to ask?"

"When that person came to buy Heshan lotus yesterday, did he give two hundred taels of silver or a bank note?" Mu Yunjin asked.

"It's all silver, and it's all broken silver. I ordered a big bag of broken silver for a long time yesterday." The proprietress said while gesturing the size of the bag of broken silver. Some sore arms.

When Mu Yunjin heard this answer, she frowned slightly, thinking that the man was too thoughtful, and even changed the silver into broken silver in advance.

"Can you show me the broken silver?" Mu Yunjin looked at the proprietress.

The proprietress was stunned for a moment, with a troubled expression on her face, "There are too many pieces of silver. I went to the bank yesterday evening to exchange it into bank notes for deposit, but there were a little more scattered pieces of silver. I threw them into the money box." , mixed with other pieces of silver, I don’t know which ones were given by that person.”

After finishing speaking, the proprietress tugged on La Mu Yunjin's sleeve, and asked timidly, "Princess Ning, you questioned me so carefully, could something serious happen? Or is it that the money given by that person is not clean?"

The proprietress became more and more frightened as she thought about it, and without waiting for Mu Yunjin to open her mouth to look at the money box, she went directly behind the counter and opened the box containing the money, "Princess Ning, it's all here."

Mu Yunjin approached and flipped through the broken silver coins inside. Most of these broken silver coins looked the same, and there was no way to tell the difference. After flipping through a few times, Mu Yunjin closed the money box.

"Listen to you, the buyer's accent is not local?" Mu Yunjin looked at the proprietress.

"Yeah, he doesn't look like a local, but I can't tell where he is from. He even wore a gauze cap on his head. I didn't even see his appearance clearly." The proprietress said honestly.

Mu Yunjin saw that she couldn't find any clues here, so she didn't intend to continue asking. After thanking the proprietress, she and Huaying walked out of the medicine shop.

"Princess Ning, is something going to happen?" The proprietress only felt panicked in her heart.

"No, I just heard that he bought all the Heshan lotus, and I just want to buy some from him." Mu Yunjin made up an excuse.

The proprietress finally felt relieved when she heard this, thinking that Chu Li and Mu Yunjin must be in urgent need of this medicinal material when they came to inquire about Heshanlian in turn, and she comforted her, "Although the medicinal material Heshanlian is rare and precious, There are still some in most places. Some time ago, my husband said that when he went to play near Qingzhou, he saw a large area of ​​wild Heshan lotus. Take the guts to pick it."

"Qingzhou?" A trace of surprise flashed across Mu Yunjin's face.

"That's right, it's that miserable place in Qingzhou. My husband-in-law also said that Heshan lotus, a good thing, grew in the wrong place, and it was all wasted." The proprietress sighed, and just thinking about it, she felt that she had lost a lot of money. Silver taels.

Mu Yunjin finally felt that this trip was not in vain. Before leaving, she asked the proprietress one last question, "You didn't tell the buyer yesterday about the Heshan lotus in Qingzhou, did you?"

"Of course not, otherwise I will do business in the future." The proprietress chuckled lightly.

"Okay, remember to keep this matter secret." When Mu Yunjin finished speaking, she took out a string of pearl chains from her sleeve and handed it to the proprietress.

Seeing the fineness of the pearl, the landlady's eyes lit up, she quickly put away the chain, and thanked her repeatedly, thinking in her heart, she has been really lucky for the past two days...
