Wei Qing had eaten her fill and was preparing to go to the palace when a gust of wind blew past him.
”Smelly old man, you're finally back.”
Chen Yang was even more haggard than before. Seeing the pastries on the table, he grabbed it and started to eat without any care for his image.
Wei Qing stared at him without blinking, as if he was running out of a refugee camp.
Chen Yang ate a few pieces of pastries, drank two more sips of tea, rubbed his stomach and burped.
”Did something happen at the border?”
Otherwise, the old man wouldn't have taken so long to get back to the capital.
Chen Yang looked at her intently, ”You have always been clever, you little girl. If your brother was half as clever as you, he wouldn't have turned the situation into such a serious mess.”
Thinking that Tian Sisi could seduce Ming Yuan Hou, Wei Qing's heart suddenly jumped. Could it be that Long Xiaotian had also sent a spy to the border to seduce her big brother?
Just thinking about it, Wei Qing felt chills down her spine.
”Tell me, what happened?”
If Long Xiaotian's men were to really succeed, and her brother sold out the northern military secrets, wouldn't that implicate the entire Prime Minister's Residence?
If that was really the case, she had to immediately enter the palace and obtain the Death-Free Token from the empress dowager.
Chen Yang sighed heavily.
Wei Qing had already exhausted all of her patience and grabbed Chen Yang's collar: ”Stupid old man, don't intentionally keep us guessing!”
This was a matter of life and death. There was no time to lose.
Chen Yang never thought that Wei Qing would actually be so disrespectful, but, this girl's temper really suited her appetite.
He brushed away Wei Qing's hands and told her about the strange things that happened at the border.
”Isn't it just opium poppy?” After hearing all of Chen Yang's descriptions, Wei Qing said with a frown.
”Not exactly opium poppy.” Chen Yang rubbed his forehead, ”I've been busy recently detoxifying the soldiers at the border, I'm really tired.”
”What else is there, if not all poppies?” Wei Qing's face became serious.
”The poppy is addictive, but there seems to be another element in the Immortal Deity Powder that can cause one to lose all rationality in an instant. It's full of attack power.”
Hearing that, the word ”zombie” suddenly flashed past Wei Qing's mind.
Long Xiaotian seemed to be playing a big game of chess right now, not only against the Northern Kingdom, but also the other three nations.
If something like this happened in the northern borders, then it was hard to guarantee that the other borders wouldn't react in the same way.
”Little girl, do you have any good ideas?”
Chen Yang stayed up all night, but still couldn't think of a good way to cure it. Thinking about Wei Qing's medical skills, he decided to go back to the capital to try his luck.
Originally, Wei Qing wanted to ask Chen Yang if there was any way to get rid of the Gu worm, but suddenly encountering such a troublesome situation, she decided to forget about it for now.
”Master, I feel that this matter needs to be considered carefully, so I will send someone to the palace to call Ah Qian back, we can discuss it properly.”
”Ah Qian...” Chen Yang looked at Wei Qing with interest.
Wei Qing frowned, ”Is there a problem?”
”You finally understand your own heart?” Chen Yang asked with a serious face.
Wei Qing laughed with a blush, ”If you still can't understand, I'm afraid you will really be called two-handed!”
”It's fine. Men can have four concubines, but women can't.”
Wei Qing laughed even more speechlessly, ”Master, do you have 250 kilograms of feces in your head? If not, why are your words so stinky?”
