During the survival of many tribes, the villagers close to the river were still able to accept outsiders, and the transaction was very smooth.

But the deeper you go into the mountains, the more tense the atmosphere becomes.

When Ning Xi decided to enter the mountain, he met Liang Yuanchu's suspicious gaze.

He looked at her with a smirk, not knowing what he was thinking.

If it weren't for the prime minister of Yongzhou, he really thought that Miss Ning's posture was opening up a trade route to the deep mountains of Penglai!

What kind of fox character is Cheng Guiyi, how could he send someone here just for trade.

However, he is still unsure of the identity of this Miss Ning, even if the Ning family is the current national surname.

Ning Xi glanced at Liang Yuanchu lightly, and no one could figure out her thoughts with an expressionless appearance.

……

Yongzhou, in the capital.

"Prime Minister!"

"There are a few small works mixed in the palace, and they have been taken down."

The young and handsome prime minister didn't raise his head, and was busy reading the folds, but the blue and black under his eyes were a little heavy, which showed that he was too tired during this time.

He pursed his thin lips lightly, "Is the review complete?" ”

"It's all been reviewed."

"It's someone sent from the state side, and they want to find out the news of the queen."

The red pen in Cheng Guiyi's hand was stunned, and a drop of ink fainted.

"Stand down."

Cheng Qi looked at Cheng Guiyi, and stopped talking, since he came back from the queen and told the prime minister all about the queen, the prime minister was in a bad mood.

also blamed him for talking too much, why did he mention Wei Yi and the queen.

Cheng Guiyi saw that Cheng Qi hadn't left yet, and frowned, "What's the matter?" ”

"Master, take care of your health." When Cheng Qi went out, he sighed in his heart.

If the prime minister is so busy, no matter how young and tough his body is, he can't withstand it.

What's more, the soldiers and horses of Bingzhou are menacing, even if there is still a long distance from Yongzhou, once the war starts.

I hope the prime minister can hold on.

……

On Ning Xi's side, he quickly determined the route into the deep mountains with the local villagers.

The mountain road is difficult to walk, coupled with the lack of adaptation to the water and soil, the tiredness on Ning Xi's face cannot be concealed at all.

The queen's body is already delicate, where has she suffered like this, but in the eyes of outsiders, she is still strong.

Wei Yi naturally kept noticing Ning Xi's situation, in addition to him and Qin Wu, Qin Wu sighed and glanced at him.

He immediately stepped forward and held the queen, who was a little unsteady in her steps.

Ning Xi leaned towards him, walked with strength, and soon heard his soft words.

"Miss, I'll help you go first."

Ning Xi nodded, glanced at Wei Yi, and walked such a long way, he was not weak at all, and his body was too strong.

Wei Yi caught her gaze, "Are you in trouble?" ”

"Wei Yi, if only I could be as powerful as you." Ning Xi's tone was mixed with a little envy.

When Wei Yi heard her gaze, a ridiculous thought suddenly popped up.

If the queen had followed him to practice martial arts since childhood, it would not be impossible.

He looked thoughtful, which made Ning Xi quite curious, "What are you thinking?" ”

Wei Yi was a little weak-hearted, and hurriedly came back to his senses, "I'm thinking, you don't need to be like me, but if you want to make your body a little stronger, if you want, I want to take you to practice some kung fu to strengthen your body." ”

I thought the queen would refuse, but I didn't expect her to respond with a smile, "Okay." ”

It was not so easy to enter the deep mountains of Penglai, so Ning Xi personally formulated the route according to the coordinates given by the system and the guidance of the villagers.

Supplies along the way need to pass through several tribes, not to mention, she came in the name of trade, so she has to make a show.

There are many insects and snakes in the deep mountains, and there are many miasma, even if Ning Xi changes her dress into long pants and clothes, she still gets hit.

She felt her face and neck itching.

Wei Yi frowned when he saw the red scratches on her neck, "Miss, are you okay?" ”

Ning Xi didn't expect this, and was uncomfortable all over, "It's not very comfortable." ”

"If you bear with me, there is still a day's walk before the next tribal village."

Ning Xi nodded casually, and the buzzing of mosquitoes everywhere in her ears made her feel irritable.

Wei Yi observed the surroundings more carefully along the way, collected a lot of citronella grass that repellent mosquitoes and itching, and mashed it with a bamboo tube for the queen to prepare.

Towards evening, the villagers who led the way took them to the thatched huts they had built to hunt in the past to spend the night.

The best room was still assigned to Ning Xi according to the convention, with Qin Wu here, Wei Yi couldn't share a room with her like they were together.

He handed the mashed lemongrass juice to Ning Xi, "Miss, apply the medicinal juice to the itchy area before going to bed, and you can rest early." ”

As he spoke, he placed the bamboo tube containing lemongrass juice on the small bamboo table in the thatched house.

Ning Xi looked at Wei Yi, who ran under the big tree outside the thatched hut to prepare for the vigil, and raised his chin, "The back of my neck was also bitten by mosquitoes, how can I apply it alone?" ”

When Wei Yi heard this, he didn't know what he thought, and her ears turned red inexplicably when she said it.

When he followed the queen into the thatched house, he seemed to be targeted by Qin Wu, and the unnaturalness in his heart was even worse.

"Oh, I'm sorry for you." Ning Xi handed him the bamboo tube, and then lay down on the bed.

The bed had already asked Qin Wu to bring someone over to lay out the bedding, and outside, the queen couldn't be bitter no matter what.

She lay on the bed, pulled some collars, and her white neck revealed a small red bag.

Wei Yi's heart tingled, it was his negligence, if he had prepared mosquito repellent medicine earlier, maybe the queen would not have suffered these crimes.

He is a rough man, he has lived in the grassland since he was a child, and when he grows up, he spends all day in the barracks, he knows too little about women, and the queen is too delicate.

Bitterness and depression stirred in her heart, and now it was too late for anything, so she had to give her a good dose of medicine and let her rest earlier.

Ning Xi felt that his neck was cold, there was no pain and itching, he felt a lot more comfortable, and after walking for so long, he couldn't help but fall asleep when Wei Yi was applying the medicine.

Early the next morning, Ning Xi opened her eyes and thought that Wei Yi had slipped away in order to avoid suspicion, but she didn't expect him to rest in front of her bed with his sword in his arms.

"Are you awake? How does it feel, itchy or not? Wei Yi was very alert, and Ning Xi opened his eyes when he moved a little.

Ning Xi turned sideways to him, "You check?" ”

Wei Yi really checked it carefully, and the red envelopes had faded a lot, but there were still some traces.

Ning Xi turned over and looked at him on his stomach, "Wei Yi, I'm still so itchy." ”

Wei Yi pursed his lips, so guilty that he wanted to pay for his life, and he didn't want the queen to be hurt in the slightest.

Ning Xi chuckled in his heart, no, this man is too careless.

She stretched out her hand and took his big hand and asked, "Wei Yi, what's wrong?" ”

Wei Yi felt guilty that he couldn't take care of the queen well, and he was ashamed to take the queen to the end of the world, if such a thing happened, he couldn't forgive himself at all.

"It's fine." He shook his head.
