The grass in the factory should be plucked

Chapter 398 Cave Mansion

Jifeng has a contract with Xie Changan, and Zhufeng has a contract with Jiang Li. Logically speaking, as long as the contract exists, they can communicate with them no matter where they are.

Unless these two peregrine falcons are unconscious or dead!

Xie Changan also sat up, frowning slightly: "Brother Shen, Ji Feng, and Zhu Feng have lost contact one after another, something must have happened! Why is there no news coming back?"

You should know that Shen Muchun did not go to Jiangnan alone. In addition to a team of factory guards accompanying him, there were also several fellow brothers from Ghost Doctor Valley.

He went there on the orders of the emperor, and the local government must have allocated personnel to cooperate with him. With so many people, how come no one noticed anything unusual?

"I'll go ask my foster father after daybreak whether the pigeon from the East Factory has returned."

Xie Changan stretched out his hand and took Jiang Li into his arms, "It's no use for you to worry now, go to sleep."

Jiang Li sighed: "How can I sleep? I guess we have to go to Jiangnan."

She thought about the small clothes that Cui Ai had made with needle and thread during the day, and when she happily told her that the child's nickname was "Man Ge'er", she became more and more anxious.

Brother Shen, please don't get into any trouble. My sister-in-law and Man'er are still waiting for you to come back!

"Should we notify Brother Diao and his wife to come over?" Xie Changan asked.

Jiang Li smiled and said, "No need to trouble Brother Diao this time, we have a more convenient and quicker way!"

"What method?" Xie Changan asked curiously.

Is there anything in the world that flies faster than an eagle?

"Dragon Palace!"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Don't forget, we have the Dragon King of the East China Sea and the Four Rivers Dragon Lords. The Dragon Palace is Dandan's portable cave. As long as we are in the waters under their control, we can be there in an instant with just a thought."

Xie Changan was overjoyed. That shabby Dragon Palace actually had such a wonderful use?

"With the Dragon Palace, we can also bring our loyalty with us."

Jiang Li decided to keep the twins with her. Prince Rui might not give up and might wait for an opportunity to counterattack. We must not let our guard down before he leaves Da Chu!

"I'll ask my father tomorrow about the exact location of Brother Shen and the others. Is it in Hangzhou Prefecture or Suzhou Prefecture?"

"it is good."

Xie Changan looked out the window. It was still pitch black. He kissed her gently and said, "It's still dark. Let's sleep a little longer."

"Yeah." Jiang Li buried her face in his arms and closed her eyes obediently.

After dawn, the two went to see Liao Wuyong.

"They are in Hangzhou Prefecture."

Liao Wuyong said, "The carrier pigeon has returned, and the factory guards there replied that everything is normal. It's just that Earl Ryan caught a cold and has been recuperating in his room these days. The people from Longmen Medical Bureau are busy with things outside."

"That is to say, Brother Shen hasn't shown up for a few days?" Jiang Li's eyes were stern, "Dad, Zhufeng has also lost contact!"

Liao Wuyong was shocked: "Then something must have happened!"

He paused, "Are you going there in person?"

"Yes. I will go to the palace to see His Majesty and hand over the follow-up matters of the peace talks to Minister Cui."

"Okay, Dad will go to the palace with you."

After the morning court session, Nangong Qinghe summoned Jiang Li and Cui Jue to the imperial study.

Nangong Qinghe smiled and said, "Ah Li, today in the court, all the officials praised you."

Prince Jing'an had a debate with the Mongolian and Jurchen envoys, and actually sold the red potato at a sky-high price that they could not even imagine!

The Mongols and Jurchens had to cede the Greater Khingan Range and Changbai Mountain to the Great Chu, and the Jurchens even opened up the navigation rights of the Heilongjiang River to the Great Chu!

All the officials in the court are old foxes who have been immersed in the political arena for a long time. Of course they know what this means.

With red potatoes, the Mongols and Jurchens could fill their stomachs in the winter, so they naturally would not come to the Chu to plunder again.

The common people trade and intermarry, and the Mongols and Jurchens are gradually eroded away by the world imperceptibly. One day, they will become part of the Great Chu!

"Given time, the Great Chu may be able to unify Mongolia and Jurchen without a single soldier!"

Nangong Qinghe was very happy, "I hope I can see this prosperity when I am in power!"

Cui Jue smiled and cupped his hands: "I congratulate Your Majesty in advance on unifying the country and creating a prosperous era for the Great Chu!"

Jiang Li had to interrupt them: "Your Majesty, I have something urgent to report!"

Nangong Qinghe was surprised: "What's the matter?"

Jiang Li then reported one by one that Shen Muchun, Ji Feng and Zhu Feng had all lost contact.

"No news from the East Factory either?" Nangong Qinghe frowned.

"The governor went to ask. The news from the East Factory is that everything is normal, but Earl Ryan caught a cold and has been recuperating in his room for the past few days. The Longmen Medical Bureau is busy with the outside affairs."

Everything is normal, but why are Jifeng and Zhufeng both lost contact?

Nangong Qinghe and Cui Jue both realized that something must have happened!

"Let the East Factory investigate as soon as possible!" Nangong Qinghe frowned.

"The pigeons are too slow to travel back and forth, so let me and Duke Dingguo make the trip," Jiang Li said.

"Before leaving, Brother Shen revealed to me that he suspected that the Xiaoyao Cream was made by his master, the Ghost Doctor Valley Master Chu Linfeng!"

Nangong Qinghe and Cui Jue were both shocked.

They all knew that Chu Linfeng, because of Chu Feixue's misfortune, had turned to Nangong Xihe and was controlled by his poisonous insect.

If the Xiaoyao ointment is related to Chu Linfeng, needless to say, the person behind the scenes is Nangong Xihe who is possessed by the soul-sucking insect!

To deal with this mirror monster, only Jiang Li and Xie Changan can take action.

"Ah Li, I'm going to trouble you and Xie Qing again."

Nangong Qinghe felt quite guilty. A'li had been running around all year round for his empire and had never had a moment of rest!

"I don't feel tired sharing your worries." Jiang Li said with a smile, "But, Lord Cui will have to trouble you with the follow-up matters of the peace talks."

Although a preliminary agreement has been reached with the Mongols and Jurchens, the contents of the treaty still need to be finalized item by item, which is a rather cumbersome task.

"With the foundation laid by the prince, subsequent matters will be much simpler." Cui Jue said with a smile.

After completing the handover with Cui Jue, Jiang Li returned to the mansion and asked Aunt Lian to help her and the twins pack their luggage.

"Going to Jiangnan again? But riding on a eagle?"

Aunt Lian frowned slightly. Although it was already March, the wind was very strong in the sky, so she had to bring them thicker clothes.

Jiang Li quietly leaned over to Aunt Lian's ear and said, "Aunt, I actually got a fairy treasure in the East China Sea. It's a portable cave."

"Portable cave?" Aunt Lian was shocked. "What do you mean?"

Jiang Li chuckled and said, "It means exactly what it says. I can carry this immortal cave with me wherever I go."

"It's now at the bottom of our lake. It's a pity that you can't swim, otherwise I could take you to see it. I put a lot of colorful corals in it. It's so beautiful!"

Aunt Lian suddenly understood. No wonder the twins kept telling her that the stone trees, red, green, and blue, were so beautiful!

It turned out to be coral!

"I can put Bulibusi in that cave and take it with me." Jiang Li said with a smile.

The girl actually has such a great opportunity!

Aunt Lian also knew that "it's a crime to possess a treasure", so she quickly hushed and whispered, "Girl, you have to keep this treasure well, and don't let anyone know! The eldest lady and the eldest master must also warn them not to let it slip!"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Yeah, I know. Don't worry, aunt, no one else can take this treasure away."

The Dragon Palace was never hers. She just shared the magic weapon with Dandan through the life contract.
