Chapter 324 Strange Herb
It was still early, and it was still a long time before Mo Jinghao returned home. After Lou Xuanying handed the bag of herbs to Boss Wan and ordered him to send someone to deliver it to Mo Jinghao himself, she felt relieved and overwhelmed. The burden on my body was instantly lightened.

She hoped that the key could be handed back to the emperor as soon as possible, but she was not at ease with it.

After handing over the herbs, Lou Xuanying asked Wan Qiyue to leave to rest, while she went back to the study to study painting.

However, half an hour later, Tian'er knocked on the door of the study and sent her a message.

"Miss, the prince has returned to the mansion, and I want you to go to the hall."

After hearing this, Lou Xuanying stopped the brush in her hand, and quickly replied: "Understood, I'll be right there."

Having said that, she still calmly put an end to the four-faced painting she had in hand, and while she was writing, she thought for a while about what Mo Jinghao might force her to ask.

Finally, she put down her pen, walked out of the study with her hands behind her back, and just entered the hall, only to find that not only Mo Jinghao and Yue Chu were there, but also Huang Fuchen, who was so busy that he couldn't see anyone.

"Hey, the Minister of the Ministry of War, who is very busy, is also free to come. Is it okay for you to run away like this and let your father do his own work?"

Huangfuchen had heard too many hurtful words from her, and expressed that he was used to it, so he only cast a glance at her, and continued to drink the tea in his hand.

Afterwards, he slowly retorted: "Are you still in the mood to tease me? Don't you realize that Jing Hao's face is stinky?"

Lou Xuanying curled her lips, she noticed it as soon as she entered the hall, so she pretended not to see it and teased Huangfuchen instead.

"come over."

Mo Jinghao's voice was very calm, without any emotion, but in Lou Xuanying's ears, she knew it was just the calm before the storm.

She hesitated to step forward, stood two steps away from him, and faced him with the most sincere smile: "You... What do you want from me?"

"What do you think?" He glanced at her and patted the seat beside him to signal her to sit down and talk.

She immediately shook her head and looked at him obediently: "Stop sitting down, I did something wrong and if you want to criticize me, just say it."

"Oh? Tell me what's wrong with you yourself?" Mo Jinghao answered casually, took a sip from the wine glass on the table, and then played with the wine glass.

She looked at his expression carefully, and was guessing his mood at the moment, when Huangfuchen's gloating laughter came from beside her ear, she glared at him angrily, then looked back at Mo Jinghao soon, and replied fearlessly: "I don't think I did anything wrong. Why don't I sneak out of the mansion in disguise? Yueli is back, I just went to pick her up."

Seeing that he didn't reply for a long time, she added another sentence: "I can't stay in the mansion forever, I will suffocate to death."

"You turn around and forget the danger you have encountered?"

"I haven't forgotten, but I don't want to go anywhere like I'm in prison. If I'm taken away, it's confinement, and if I stay, it's the same. Is there a difference for me? I'd rather choose to be free for a while."

She knew that Mo Jinghao was afraid that she would be in danger, but she couldn't give in on the point of freedom.

Her temper is too noisy, it is impossible for her to stay in one place comfortably.

Mo Jinghao sighed, they probably couldn't argue over this matter in their lifetime.

"Okay, we'll discuss this matter later, you have to give us an explanation about the medicinal herbs?" He pointed to the big bag that Yue Chu had on hand.

Yue Chu opened the bundle, and inside were the sixteen kinds of rare medicinal herbs.

These medicinal herbs grow extremely fat, fresh and tender as if they were just picked, and one can find that each of their leaves is almost perfect upon closer inspection.

"Xuanying, where did you find these medicinal herbs? In just one day, you found all sixteen kinds of medicinal herbs at once."

Without blinking her eyes, Lou Xuanying replied with a smile, "Yueli sent it to me."

"Really? If I remember correctly, there are nearly seven or eight kinds of herbs here that are warm-loving, and they can't grow on Ice Snake Island at all." That's why they were so shocked when they opened the bag and saw these herbs .

"Lingyu City is full of merchants, buying and selling countless medicinal herbs. Even if some medicinal herbs cannot grow there, it is not ruled out that they can appear there, right?"

Her words are indeed reasonable if you don't go into it deeply, but if you go into it, there are many flaws.

Yue Chu held the snow ganoderma, fiddled with it left and right, and then said with a smile: "This growth is really good. If all the snow ganoderma grows like this, it probably won't have the title of 'immortal grass'."

He looked at Mo Jinghao, the initiative was in his hands, and it was up to him to believe her words or not.

"You don't care how long it grows, you can use it or not, the emperor is waiting for your medicine to cure the disease."

"Xuanying, if I ask you for a few more herbs, will you..."

"It's gone, Yue Liren is already here, no one has brought me medicine, don't count on me, I'm not a herb grower." Lou Xuanying interrupted Yue Chu without waiting for him to finish speaking, and also sent a A blank stare.

"Lou Xuanying, do you really think the three of us are so easy to fool? If you really treat us as friends, tell us the truth. What secrets are you hiding?" Huangfuchen also interjected. The secret hidden in Xuanying's body can be found out, but she seems to have no intention of telling them at all.

Lou Xuanying made a face at him, but still insisted that the herb was sent by Wan Qiyueli.

"Yuechu, I got the herbs, you should mix them out as soon as possible, Huangfu, you should go back to help your father, the situation is serious, and no mistakes can be tolerated." Mo Jinghao kept staring at Lou Xuanying, seeing her Attitude, it is impossible to ask anything for the time being, so I have to decide to take a long-term plan.

Huangfuchen and Yuechu nodded and left, Lou Xuanying stood cautiously, looking around in the hall, but never looked at Mo Jinghao.

"If there's nothing else, I want to leave..." She knew that he had been staring at her, but didn't he know that this would put a lot of pressure on her?

"Come and sit down." He poured a cup of tea and moved it to the side, and asked her to sit down with his eyes.

"No, what else do you want to tell me?"

"I won't ask you about the medicinal herbs. I will wait until the day you are willing to tell me the truth yourself."

Lou Xuanying lowered her head and frowned. She knew that they would not believe it, but she couldn't help it, she couldn't say it.

She hesitated for a while before slowly walking towards him and sitting down beside him.

After waiting for a while, she saw that Mo Jinghao took out something from his sleeve and put it on the table in front of her, so she asked lightly, "Know it?"

It was a token with the word "Ling" written on the upward side. She took the token and turned it over, but was stunned when she saw the words on it.

The word "Yi" is impressively written on the back of the token, and the base map is a dragon pattern.

"Yi... Junqian? Do you want to say that this token belongs to him? And what is this token?"
