His hair was dry, and he lifted his foot to remove the charcoal basin beside him.

"Smoke?"

He called softly, but received no response, only to realize that she had fallen asleep.

He leaned over, looked down at Xin Nianyan's sleeping face from above, lowered his head and dropped a kiss between her eyebrows.

"Good work."

In the past few days of high-intensity consultations, he was distressed just by looking at it, and he was afraid that he was tired.

He sighed inaudibly, lightly hooked Xin Nianyan's legs, picked her up horizontally, and walked to the bed. 

Qin Han's movements were very light, for fear of waking up Xin Nianyan, he pulled the quilt over and covered her before getting up and exiting and closing the door.

Xin Nianyan slept until night before waking up.

When she opened her eyes, it was pitch black all around, and looking at the surrounding environment through the moonlight, it was also completely unfamiliar, she frowned and rolled over, and for a while she couldn't tell whether she was dreaming or not.

"Shi Wu?" She spoke.

Shi Wu, who was guarding outside the door, hurriedly responded when he heard this.

"Childe woke up?"

With that, he pushed the door open and came in and lit the lamp for her.

"Why am I asleep here, lord?"

"Lord Wang is waiting for you downstairs, and Mr. Ning is also there."

Xin Nianyan was stunned for a moment, then began to dress and freshen up, cleaned up in a moment, and went downstairs to the inn lobby.

The hall was lit with lights, and there were soldiers guarding the door outside, Qin Han and Ning Wuji were sitting opposite each other, and there were many files and old books piled up on the table.

"Yanyan, are you awake?"

Qin Han raised his eyes and looked over, "Are you hungry, I'll let the kitchen warm up the dinner and serve it to you?" ”

Xin Nianyan nodded, walked to the table and smiled at him, "Thank you, Lord Wang." ”

This man is a little too caring, it's really heartwarming!

"Heh, sleep when you eat, eat when you wake up, what do you raise her for?"

Ning Wuji flipped through the book and glanced at her obliquely, and sneered.

Xin Nianyan just bent down and picked up an old dossier, and when he heard this, the corners of his eyebrows couldn't help jumping twice, and he really wanted to put the book in his hand on his head.

After repeated forbearance, he grinded his teeth and smiled, "Yes, there are always people who are willing to care if I am hungry or not, whether I sleep well or not, and Hanlu is afraid that I will worry about whether I will have enough food and clothing at the border every day." ”

One sentence hit the bull's-eye, Ning Wuji's face turned dark, "You ......"

"Okay, okay, let's get down to business."

Seeing that his right-hand arm was about to be pinched, Ning Wuji hurriedly stopped the two with a smile.

Ning Wuji snorted, "You can't speak if you don't mention Hanlu, do you?" ”

Xin Nianyan shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly, "It's useful." ”

Take a pinch~

Shi Wu had already brought dinner, and Xin Nianyan began to eat.

"Mr. Ning, can you gain something today?"

She took a sip of the warm Hu soup and asked.

"Yes, there is a Liuchuan River in Yecheng, and there is a highly poisonous flower inhabited nearby, called Liuchuan Lotus."

Ning Wuji nodded.

Xin Nianyan paused, "Didn't you go to investigate the pathogen, how did you study the poison?" ”

After thinking about it, I felt relieved, this person likes poison for a day or two, and it is not surprising that he was attracted away after checking it.

Ning Wuji picked up a warm hu cake and stuffed it into her mouth, and then continued.

"I searched through all the county records and related records of the county guard, and found that it only grows by the Liuchuan River by the habits and toxicity of this poisonous flower."

Xin Nianyan bit the cake in his mouth, reached out and pinched it, and said inarticulately.

"Then what's the matter, you are happy to see Hunting, and you want to go to Liuchuan River to dig two plants?"

Ning Wuji laughed, "I really made you right." ”

Qin Han was stunned for a moment, and looked at him in astonishment, "You want to go to Yecheng?" ”

Xin Nianyan swallowed the food in his mouth, "I said it casually, don't take it seriously!" ”

"I'm serious, I didn't talk about it casually." Ning Wuji pushed out the piece of paper mixed in the file and handed it to Xin Nianyan.

"This is what I found out in the afternoon, and I have been infected with this flower toxin."

Xin Nianyan took it and took a look, and found that every disease mentioned above was consistent with the raging epidemic.

There have been two or three cases of a person who has a high fever and delirium, which is the same for all people who have the plague.

Xin Nianyan's expression gradually became solemn, and the cakes in his hands were no longer fragrant.

"According to the people of Xuansha City, the place where the Yecheng County guards killed and burned the corpses is near the Liuchuan River."

Ning Wuji continued to speak.

"It seems that this Ye City really has to go there."

Xin Nianyan put down the notes in his hand and turned his gaze to Qin Han.

"If the origin of the plague is really related to this, then it is indeed necessary to go to the Liuchuan River to find out the pathogen and develop an antidote in a targeted manner to completely solve the plague."

Qin Han frowned, "Let's go, you stay in the barracks." ”

Xin Nianyan shook his head, "The dragons can't be leaderless, you are the commander of the army, you can't leave the army, I'll just go with Mr. Ning." ”

Qin Han's tone was stunned, Xin Nianyan was not unreasonable, but he really couldn't rest assured that he wanted him to let her go to the enemy camp alone.

"The prince disappeared in Yecheng, I can't let you go."

Xin Nianyan raised his eyebrows, "The prince is stupid and stupid, you compare me with him?" ”

Hearing this, Ning Wuji coughed lowly, and it was a little funny to open his eyes.

Xin Nianyan also reacted, and it seemed unreasonable for him to scold his nephew for being stupid in front of his uncle.

Qin Han also laughed, reached out and pinched Xin Nianyan's cheek, "Your mouth is really unforgiving." ”

Naturally, he didn't blame Xin Nianyan, but a little warmth rose in his heart.

There are no people here and right, so she is so open-mouthed, which means that she has classified herself as one of the people she can fully trust.

"I mean, since the crown prince is missing in Yecheng, it just so happens that we can still look for him."

Xin Nianyan cleared Qingsang and changed his words.

"It's my responsibility to find the prince, how can I let you do this on your behalf?"

Qin Han didn't agree with her statement, so he knocked on the table with his fingers, and thought twice before he spoke.

"I will send an order tomorrow to summon Qiu Xuanji back to guard Xuansha City, and then lead a team of elite soldiers to visit Ye City with the two of you in disguise."

"What about the soldiers of Qianlin Pass?" Xin Nianyan asked.

"It's okay, originally there was only one commander in the army, and Qianlin Pass was backed by Pingcheng and adjacent to Xuansha City, so it was stable and peaceful."

At this time, the strength of the two countries has been sharply reduced, and no one will sneak attack the military camp of Xuansha City, let alone bypass Xuansha City to fight Qianlin Pass.

"The old man is not in good health now, and this million-strong master always needs someone to command."

Qin Han himself can't live outside the Saiwai for a long time, so he can only hope for the proud protégé of the old prince, General Qiu.

"Okay, just according to what the prince said."

Xin Nianyan nodded, looked at Ning Wuji, Ning Wuji bowed, "It's good that you decide." ”

In fact, his main purpose was to see the true face of the Liuchuan Lotus......

He can't say this, he just knows it.
