Chapter 34: Your Majesty, please return to Northern Frontier as soon as possible
"Does it have mine too?" Mu Jiuchen looked at the other purse in Jiang Li's hand in amazement, his eyes full of disbelief. The purse was embroidered with exquisite green bamboo patterns, which was exactly his favorite style.
At this moment, Mu Jiuchen was extremely excited. He stared at the purse with his eyes wide open, as if he was afraid that it would suddenly disappear. This extreme reaction surprised Jiang Li. She really didn't expect that such a small and exquisite purse could cause such a huge emotional fluctuation in the regent.
Jiang Li couldn't help but look at the powerful man in front of her curiously, trying to find the answer from his face. However, apart from extreme excitement and joy, she didn't notice anything else unusual.
"Thank you, thank you!" Mu Jiuchen's face was full of joy, and his voice was full of excitement. He stretched out his trembling hand and eagerly took the exquisite purse from the other party. It seemed that it was not just an ordinary purse, but a rare treasure. He held it carefully, fearing that it would be damaged or lost if he was not careful. There was a gleam in his eyes, full of love and cherishment for this purse.
"Your Highness, this is just a purse for warding off evil spirits for the Dragon Boat Festival. I hope Your Highness can help bring my second brother's purse to him as well. I wonder when Your Highness will return to Northern Frontier?" It is already the end of March, and there is only more than a month left until the Dragon Boat Festival.
In addition, there was another thing that made Jiang Li quite worried, that was the upcoming food epidemic. According to the information she had, the disaster would break out in about two and a half months. Although she knew that everyone would be able to successfully overcome this difficulty in the end, it was foreseeable that there would inevitably be a considerable number of casualties during this period, and the situation would probably be very serious. Thinking of this, Jiang Li's mood became heavier.
Mu Jiuchen looked at Jiang Li's sudden change of expression. He didn't know what she was thinking. The God of War, who was never afraid of the enemy, was now so cautious.
"Miss Jiang, what's wrong with you? Is there anything difficult for you?" Mu Jiuchen looked at the person in front of him who suddenly fell silent, frowned slightly, and asked with worry in his eyes.
Hearing Mu Jiuchen's question, Jiang Li couldn't help biting her lips, and she was secretly conflicted. She really didn't know how to answer this question. On the one hand, she was worried that Mu Jiuchen might not believe her after she said it; on the other hand, she remembered the promise she made to her eldest brother and third brother - never mention that matter to any outsiders again.
For a moment, all kinds of thoughts flooded into Jiang Li's mind, making him feel torn and indecisive.
"Your Majesty, you must return to Northern Frontier before the Dragon Boat Festival!" Jiang Li looked worried, but he did not dare to say too much. He knew that the current situation was urgent and time was running out. Only by letting Mu Jiuchen return to Northern Frontier as soon as possible could the situation be stabilized.
The Northern Frontier is an important border area, which is related to the safety of the country. As a prince guarding one side, Mu Jiuchen's prestige and strength are unmatched. As long as he is in charge of the Northern Frontier, the Jin Kingdom will be afraid and dare not easily invade. Therefore, Jiang Li secretly prayed in his heart, hoping that Mu Jiuchen could return soon to ensure the stability of the border.
"Oh, Miss Jiang, don't worry, I will definitely deliver your second brother's Dragon Boat Festival purse before the Dragon Boat Festival." Mu Jiuchen thought Jiang Li was worried about those clothes.
After hearing what Mu Jiuchen said, Jiang Li knew that he had misunderstood, and Jiang Li finally couldn't help himself.
"Your Majesty, do you believe me?" Jiang Li looked at Mu Jiuchen firmly and asked softly.
"Believe it." Mu Jiuchen answered without hesitation. His short and powerful words were like a spring breeze blowing through Jiang Li's heart, making her feel a little warm and encouraged.
After receiving a positive answer, Jiang Li no longer had any reservations and decided to tell all the information she knew. However, out of caution, she did not reveal too many details and only told Mu Jiuchen the general situation: "Your Majesty, as far as I know, the Jin Kingdom has been acting strangely recently. They are ambitious and ready to attack our border. Not only that, they may also use all kinds of despicable means to achieve their goals, including threatening the food safety of the army and the citizens of the border city. Please be vigilant!"
At this point, Jiang Li's tone became more serious, and her eyes revealed deep worry. She knew that the upcoming war was full of variables and dangers, and the slightest carelessness could lead to catastrophic consequences. Therefore, she sincerely hoped that Mu Jiuchen would pay attention to these issues and take appropriate measures to deal with them.
The more Mu Jiuchen listened, the more he frowned. He thought to himself, "Jiang Li is just a girl in seclusion. How could she know these confidential matters? I think her father and brother would definitely not tell her about these military spies..." However, Mu Jiuchen was not suspicious of Jiang Li. He was just very curious about the source of Jiang Li's information. After all, these things are out of reach and difficult to touch for ordinary people! Who revealed such important information to Jiang Li? And how did she know it? Countless questions came to his mind, causing Mu Jiuchen to fall into deep thought.
After Jiang Li finished speaking, she looked at Mu Jiuchen with some trepidation. She was afraid that Mu Jiuchen would not believe her or even doubt her. She was unsure, after all, the two of them were not very familiar with each other.
