Chapter 40 Pei Nanxing is willing to go to the Central Plains...
Hearing this, Niannian looked obediently at Grandpa Fu, her big eyes blinking, and asked softly, "Grandpa, is it okay?"
She must be right, right?
Old Master Fu forced a smile, trying his best to appear serious, but the smile in his eyes was impossible to hide.
He stretched out his right hand, raised five fingers, and began to recite: "First, donate five truckloads of things: vitamin supplements, anti-inflammatory drugs, liniments for sprains and bruises, Nan Yun Bai Yao (a traditional Chinese medicine), gauze, disinfectant, and band-aids..."
He rattled off a long list of medicine names, and Niannian nodded obediently beside him for each name, as if she were learning some important knowledge.
Xu Junyan, however, felt something was amiss as he listened. His eyes narrowed as he muttered to himself, "This isn't just a donation of ordinary medicine; it's clearly support for the front lines!"
He had donated a lot of medicine before, but most of them were routine medicines, such as children's pagoda-shaped sugar tablets, calcium tablets, and vitamin supplements.
But the medicines that Old Master Fu requested this time were clearly not something an ordinary person would think of.
Especially when he heard "gauze, hemostatic patch, Nanyun Baiyao", Xu Junyan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and look at Grandpa Fu with a puzzled expression.
Old Master Fu felt a little guilty under Xu Junyan's questioning gaze, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across his face, but he quickly regained his composure.
Xu Junyan glared at him and said impatiently, "You... are you going to support the front lines?"
Old Master Fu raised an eyebrow and retorted sarcastically, "Why are you talking so much? Don't you want the antique anymore?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Junyan was stunned, his face turning extremely ugly. He stared wide-eyed at Old Master Fu, as if he wanted to devour him alive.
However, Old Master Fu remained unmoved, still smiling faintly, his eyes revealing a sense of smugness.
After a moment of silence, Xu Junyan suddenly slammed his hand on the table and shouted, "Yes! Yes! Yes! You're always using my weakness to blackmail me. Fine, I'll donate in a bit. Give me an address!"
After saying that, he turned and left angrily, leaving behind a smug-looking old man Fu and an innocent-looking Nian Nian.
Alright!!!
The plan to get something for nothing was a great success. All that's left is for Pei Yunjing to bring over a few antiques!
Old Master Fu secretly made his calculations, then shouted at Xu Junyan's receding figure, "Just send it directly to the Fu family! I'll personally deliver the antiques in a few days!!"
Hearing this, Xu Junyan's anger intensified. Sure enough, no one gets up early for nothing!
In fact, he recognized the red jade pendant around Niannian's neck at a glance; it was a treasure from the long-extinct Guangling Dynasty.
Just half a month ago, an auction house he had been following sold a red jade thumb ring, also from the Guangling Dynasty, for a high price of 300 million yuan.
Antiques from this era are not easy to collect!
If he really wanted those antiques, he would have chased Old Man Fu away long ago. But now that he thinks about it, exchanging some medicine for a few antiques from the Guangling Dynasty is an absolute steal!
Forget it, let's just give it away!
With that in mind, Xu Junyan took out his phone to arrange the donation of medicine...
……
Not long after Old Master Fu and Niannian arrived at the Fu family home, five trucks loaded with medicines gradually drove into the Fu family manor.
Niannian skipped and hopped back to her room, excitedly calling out Pei Yunjing's name.
Upon hearing the sound, Pei Yunjing hurried over and saw Niannian standing in front of the bronze mirror, her little face flushed, tightly clutching a thick stack of medicine prescriptions in her hand.
She blinked her big eyes and said to Pei Yunjing in a childish voice, "Brother Yunjing, Grandpa told me that if we're going to fight a war, we not only need powerful weapons, but we also need to prepare plenty of medicine!"
Those weapons and sturdy armor won't be finished for another seven days, but these medicines can be sent to you right away! So please step back a little while longer!
After saying that, Niannian sent the prescription over and then waved cutely at Pei Yunjing.
Immediately afterwards, she turned around and waved her little hand downstairs, and the conveyor belt by the window seemed to receive a command and slowly started to start.
Box after box of medicine moved forward along the conveyor belt and was continuously fed into the bronze mirror.
Pei Yunjing carefully took the prescription from Niannian and his eyes widened in surprise.
This thick stack of papers is densely covered with the names of various medicines, and each medicine even comes with a detailed illustrated instruction manual, making it easy to understand at a glance.
At this moment, Pei Yunjing was overjoyed. He gazed at Nian Nian's serious face in the mirror, and an indescribable feeling of emotion welled up in his heart.
In his eyes, Nian Nian at this moment was simply a god who descended from the sky to save him from his dire straits!
With this batch of precious medicines, all that's left is to obtain the Emperor's permission to complete everything.
At first, Pei Yunjing did not want to report this matter to his father, but he was worried that it would become a handle for others to blackmail him in the future.
Therefore, after careful consideration, he finally decided to inform his father of the plan by carrier pigeon to ensure that all actions would be legitimate and without any worries.

------
Time flies like an arrow; before we knew it, five days had passed in the blink of an eye.
Within the imperial palace of the capital, majestic and magnificent, resplendent in gold and jade, stands the solemn and dignified Zichen Hall, deep within this grand palace.
At this moment, the Zichen Palace was completely silent. Pei Chuan sat on the dragon throne, clutching the letter he had just received. His brows were furrowed, forming a deep furrow.
The letter brought shocking news—Aruhan's influence had quietly spread to the Central Plains, and they were even attempting to kidnap Yun Jing as a hostage!
This was undoubtedly a blatant provocation against Pei Chuan's authority, and it was like a slap in the face!
However, if a large-scale military operation is launched rashly and a large number of elite troops are sent to the Central Plains to defend it, how should other battlefields respond?
While Yun Jing's proposed strategy was feasible, it was difficult for him to contend with Aruhan's powerful forces on his own.
Pei Chuan raised his head, his gaze slowly sweeping over the ministers standing in the hall, and then revealed the contents of the letter without reservation.
His voice was deep and powerful, echoing throughout the hall: "So, regarding this matter, I wonder if any of my beloved ministers here are willing to step forward and go to the Central Plains to resolve this crisis?"
After saying this, his gaze began to sweep over the assembled officials, carefully observing each person's reaction.
Just as everyone was silent, suddenly, Pei Nanxing walked out of the queue with steady steps.
He arrived at the palace gate, bowed to Pei Chuan, and said loudly, "Your Majesty, I am willing to go to the Central Plains to lend Yun Jing a helping hand!"
His gaze was unwavering, revealing his confidence and decisiveness.
