The man nodded. Then, he continued to stare at her.
"If you want it, you can go and pick it yourself.”Bai Liuyue frowned. She was very dissatisfied with this person's sudden appearance.
Not only did he suddenly appear behind her, but he also wanted her Heartbreak Grass. Where did this weirdo come from?
"Dirty." Just as Bai Liuyue was lampooning, she heard the man's voice again. This time, there was one less word than before!
Bai Liuyue was truly dumbfounded. She didn't understand what he meant at all!
However, she didn't say anything, and this person kept staring at her. She couldn't come out of the thorns. What if he suddenly attacked her?
The Heartbreak Grass was hard to find. She couldn't tell if this person knew kung fu, but from the fact that this person could appear behind her silently, it meant that his kung fu wasn't weak. If the Heartbreak Grass was snatched by him, wouldn't she have to continue searching?
It was already afternoon. What if some wild beast appeared in the valley?
The more Bai Liuyue thought about it, the more she felt that she couldn't give the Heartbreak Grass to this weirdo.
Bai Liuyue looked up at him and said,""I can't give you the Heartbreak Grass. As for what you said, I don't quite understand. Can you move away from here first? You're blocking my way out."
Bai Liuyue's attitude was firm.
When the man heard this, a trace of light flashed across his lazy red phoenix eyes. He looked at her again. There was a trace of strangeness. "This place is too dirty, I don't want to go in. But I need the Heartbreak Grass."
This time, the man explained clearly. However, it was better not to explain at all!
Bai Liuyue's mouth twitched as she looked at the man. Was he a germaphobe?
"I also need the Heartbreak Grass. I'm in a hurry, so I can't give it to you.”Bai Liuyue's attitude softened a little. She looked at the man, hoping to leave safely without fighting.
The man was a little disappointed when he heard that Bai Liuyue was unwilling to give him the Heartbreak Grass. Then, he slowly took out a bag of silver and looked at Bai Liuyue.""Buy it."
As the saying goes, a snake strikes seven inches. Although this person didn't know Bai Liuyue, he had to admit that he had chosen the right method.
Bai Liuyue, who had been thinking of leaving by force, gave up the idea when she saw the bag of silver. She used a knife to cut through the thorns, stood up, and walked toward the man. She smiled innocently and said,""Give me the silver first."
The man was shocked by Bai Liuyue's sudden change and did not react in time. However, Bai Liuyue had already snatched the silver.
Seeing that she had suddenly snatched something, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed across the man's eyes.
However, in the next second, he felt something in his hand. When he took a closer look, he realized that it was Heartbreak Grass.
"Two stalks. You gave me about a hundred taels of silver, so I can only give you two stalks of Heartbreak Grass. I have use for the rest." Bai Liuyue's tone was very calm. As soon as she finished speaking, she stepped on the thorns and left.
The man stood rooted to the ground in a daze. He looked at the rotten thorns and then at the Heartbreak Grass in his hand. Without saying anything, he walked in the opposite direction of Bai Liuyue.
A hundred taels of silver was not much for a wealthy family, but it was too much for ordinary people. Bai Liuyue put the silver away and looked at the remaining three stalks of Heartbreak Grass in her hand. She thought that it should be enough.
After returning to the manor, Bai Liuyue didn't delay and immediately returned to her room.
He found a jar and crushed the Gut Severing Grass. Then, he went to the medicinal herb warehouse in the palace to find some commonly used medicinal herbs and left.
Because Bai Liuyue was the princess consort, as long as it wasn't an important herb, she could make the decision. Moreover, the old butler was in charge of the medicinal herb warehouse in the prince's mansion, so Bai Liuyue was not stopped.
After receiving the herbs, Bai Liuyue placed them into the jar according to the order and sealed them.
The medicine would be ready in three days.
It was not her first time making this medicine, so she was fast. However, she did not expect the Heartbreak Grass to be so difficult to find.
Three Gut Severing Grass would only last for about five days. It was still far from enough to completely remove the poison in Bai Ling's body.
Bai Liuyue placed the jar in front of the window. Then, he went to rest.
At the same time, Ye Wujue also heard the report from the secret guards.
Because Bai Liuyue had discovered the secret guards from before, the secret guards were also very shrewd. This time, the secret guards who followed Bai Liuyue were the best at tracking people in the entire residence.
"You said the princess went to the Hundred Grass Valley?" In Ye Wujue's study, Ye Wujue asked his secret guard in surprise.
"Yes, Your Highness. This subordinate could clearly see that it was the Hundred Herbs Valley.”The secret guard said respectfully.
"How did she know about that place? Who else went with her?" Ye Wujue frowned.
"No, but…the princess consort met a strange man there. I don't know who he is. However, he was dressed in red and had a mole at the corner of his eye. This subordinate thinks, could it be…"
Before the secret guard could finish his sentence, Ye Wujue suddenly stood up. His expression was ugly.
"From today onwards, you will protect the princess consort. Once that man appears again, report it immediately!”Ye Wujue's attitude was extremely serious. When the secret guard heard this, he did not dare to be negligent and could only agree.
The secret guard quickly retreated. However, Ye Wujue's expression was very ugly.
At this time, it was already sunset. Ye Wujue walked to the window and looked at the setting sun. His gaze turned cold and he said thoughtfully,"It seems that this king has underestimated wangfei. He could even enter a place like the Hundred Herbs Valley. Moreover, he was able to survive after meeting that person. Ha! How interesting." There was a hint of excitement in Ye Wujue's tone.
However, it was only for a moment before Ye Wujue's expression returned to normal. "Red Lotus, from today onwards, you will be the princess 'personal maid." Go find her and tell her that this is the only request this king has for her.”
As Ye Wujue's voice fell, a woman dressed in black on the beam nodded respectfully and then floated away.
Time passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, three days had slipped through his fingers.
In these three days, other than Ye Wujue suddenly sending her a personal maid, there was basically no disturbance. And just as she had expected, the assassination attempt had been suppressed by Ye Wujue.
Ye Wujue didn't want this matter to spread. He didn't even invite a doctor. As for how the poison was cured, Bai Liuyue was not sure.
"Princess Consort." Outside the door, the woman's cold voice sounded. It was respectful but distant.
This woman was Hong Lian, Bai Liuyue's personal maid that Ye Wujue had sent to her.
Although Bai Liuyue didn't really want this servant girl, she had no choice but to agree since it was a request from Ye Wujue. She took the initiative to make a deal with Ye Wujue so that she could be free in the future.
Ye Wujue had indeed given her freedom. At least, he allowed her to go out.
In ancient times, even a princess consort was usually not allowed to leave the residence unless there was something special. Therefore, under such circumstances, there was nothing wrong with agreeing to Ye Wujue's conditions.
Inside the house, Bai Liuyue was sleeping soundly. When Hong Lian, who was outside the door, saw that Bai Liuyue was not opening the door, she frowned and continued to say,""Wangfei, today is the engagement banquet of the Bai family's second young miss and the crown prince. We should go to the Bai family. His Highness is already waiting for you outside."
