Chapter 16: Fleur

A few days have passed, and since that time Yu Lingmo said that she could only go out five times a month, she really couldn't go out casually, and she would be stopped as soon as she arrived at the gate of the palace.

If she insisted on going out, those guards wouldn't be able to stop her, she didn't want to make too much trouble, she was a person who was particularly afraid of trouble now.

But let her stay in the palace all day, and she can't go out, and her business is not finished yet!

I don't know how the business of Yuecheng Inn is, but if there is a shopkeeper, there should be no problem, but she is not worried about this.

It's just that she wants to take a look, after all, it is the first time she has invested in business in her previous life and this life combined, so of course she cares more.

But she can't get out!

Whether to break through or go to Yu Lingmo, Ouyang Ning struggled for a long time, and finally decided to talk to Yu Lingmo again.

After figuring it out, he acted immediately, Ouyang Ningxin didn't know where he was, guessing that he should be in the study now, so he simply went directly to the study to find him, he had been there before, so he didn't ask the maid to take her there, and when he came to the door of the study, he just wanted to knock on the door, and there was a sound of talking inside.

"Lord Wang, the food in the army has been adulterated with an addictive ingredient recently, and I haven't found out what it is, and I don't know how harmful it is, Lord Wang, how to deal with this matter?" Han Lei reported the situation in the army to Yu Lingmo.

Han Lei is a capable general in Yu Lingmo's hands, a rare general, who has been by Yu Lingmo's side all these years, and can be regarded as a comrade-in-arms who was born and died together.

"How did the soldier react when he ate it?" Yu Lingmo asked aloud.

"Now the situation is not very serious, but if the ingredients are not mixed in the food, the soldiers are not in good spirits all day, some are still weak, they break out in a cold sweat, and some even drool and ...... Snot, but after eating it, I got up again, and at first I felt strange, so I investigated it, and then found out that the ingredients were mixed with something that was not there before, and now I haven't found out what it is. Han Lei paused: "Lord Wang, ...... worried"

"Don't make a noise about this in advance, investigate it as soon as possible, and then go to the army with you to see the situation." Yu Lingmo has always cared about soldiers, so this matter must be dealt with as soon as possible.

"You ...... first"

Squeak,

The door was pushed open from the outside, and seeing that it was Ouyang Ningxin, Yu Lingmo let down his guard, but he didn't let down his vigilance.

"What did you just hear?," the voice asked coldly.

"It's better not to hear anything! Otherwise......"

This matter is a military secret, the less people know about it, the better, if she is a spy, even if it is his princess, he will not show mercy.

"It's unfortunate that I heard it all" Ouyang Ningxin didn't care about his words, "Don't worry, I won't say it!" Ouyang Ningxin's expression was serious.

She knew the importance of military secrets, and if she accidentally leaked them, the consequences would be very serious, so she was not angry at Yu Lingmo's threat.

She came to him with the intention of asking him to allow her to leave the house in the future without anyone stopping her, but she didn't expect that when she heard such an important thing, she would not be killed, after all, she couldn't beat him, not to mention that there was a helper next to her who stared at her with dead eyes and armor since she came in.

However, she didn't plan to be hostile to him, Ouyang Ningxin didn't pay attention to Yu Lingmo anymore, but looked at Han Lei, who had been staring at her on the side.

"You just said that soldiers in the army ate something that is addictive?"

Ouyang Ningxin had just heard their conversation, and suddenly thought of someone.

According to the description of the man just now, the soldier's symptoms are somewhat similar to those of an addict, as far as she knows, the opium recorded in the history books of the previous life only gradually appeared in China in the Ming Dynasty, could it have appeared so early in the era of overhead?

Han Lei, who was asked, was stunned for a moment, who is this person, who was the person who overheard their conversation and was not killed by the prince, the key is still a woman, and the tone is still so calm to talk to the prince, and the courage is too big, you know, they don't dare to talk to that person in such a casual tone on weekdays, let alone a woman!

Now she's asking...... He?

Instead of...... Rajah?

But it's not him who is doing this!

Han Lei had no choice but to look at someone on the side, and sure enough, his face was even more ugly than before, but he received someone's eyes and asked him to repeat what he had just said, he must also be a person that the prince can trust!

So General Han repeated the previous words again.

Yu Lingmo must also believe in his heart that Ouyang Ningxin would not do anything that would cause him losses for the time being, after all, he helped him solve the refugee problem last time.

Not to mention, the method she said last time was even better than in previous years, and even the emperor readily approved the suggestion she said, and there are extra leftovers after the huge amount of money donated by those officials to solve the refugee problem, which was not enough in previous years, but this year it has been solved much more smoothly!

Therefore, Yu Lingmo now thinks that what Ouyang Ningxin said is worth listening to, since he saw the poems she wrote in the last poetry contest, he knows that her ability is far more than that.

It's not that he doesn't believe that his own people can solve it, but why don't he take a shortcut, anyway, she is also his person now, and he is not the kind of person who thinks that women should be married and raised at home, on the contrary, he believes that some women are no worse than men, just like his mother.

Ouyang Ningxin listened to Han Lei's words, and was even more sure that those soldiers should have ingested something containing opium, but she was very puzzled, opium should not be available in this era, even if it was an empty era.

The more Ouyang Ning thought about it, the more obvious the answer in his heart became.

"Is there a plant in your time called the poppy?"

"What do you call our time?" Han Lei was puzzled by Ouyang Ningxin's words.

Ouyang Ningxin realized that he had accidentally said something for a while, and hurriedly changed his words: "Ahem, I mean to say that you know the poppy, or is it called A Furong?" Or is it a broken intestine grass?" She remembered that in ancient times, poppies were not called poppies, and she was afraid that they would not know, so she simply said all the names she had seen in the book.

"Ah Hibiscus, I know this, it is said that Ah Hibiscus blooms very beautifully, and many rich people have planted it for ornamentation, but it can also be used as medicine, as for the poppy and broken intestine grass you are talking about, what is it?" It was Yu Lingmo who answered her this time.

"In other words, people nowadays only use it for ornamentation or medicine, and don't use it to make anything else?" Ouyang Ning paused, "Then do you know where you can plant in large quantities?"

"Because the growth environment of A Hibiscus is relatively picky, it mostly grows in sunny and moist soil, and does not like much rain, but likes moist places, it is difficult to find such a place in our Tianyu country, so it should be in Binhai Country to grow in large quantities, because it can be used as medicine, so some merchants will also ship it back from Binhai Country." Yu Lingmo has read a lot of books, so it's not surprising to know so much.

But Han Lei on the side didn't understand it at all, why did he feel like he didn't know anything!
