Mu Yunjin was momentarily at a loss for words, and stared at Hong Ling in a daze.

She never thought that the reason why Rong Jiu was poisoned was because of her...

When Beiming was in the country, it was no wonder that Rong Min was not seen at that time. It turned out that he had set his mind on Rong Jiu.

These people are really meticulous in their calculations.

Mu Yunjin clenched her fingers tightly, inexplicably feeling an invisible sense of oppression, almost making her breathless.

"Princess Ning, I can't help telling you all this because I have nothing else to do. If His Highness dies from poison, then the second prince will easily become emperor. The second prince is vicious by nature. If he proclaims himself emperor, it must be the disaster of Donglin Kingdom..." Hong Ling said.

After finishing speaking, she knelt down in front of Mu Yunjin with a thud, and lowered her eyes, "Princess Ning, please!"

"Get up first." Mu Yunjin frowned, bent down and reached out to support Hong Ling.

"If you don't promise me, I won't get up." Hong Ling choked up.

Mu Yunjin didn't know what to say, Chu Li's person was on the left, and Rong Jiu was on the right. If she found the Star Grass, she would bring it to Rong Jiu, but how would she explain it to Xu Heyu?

But if she didn't give it to Rong Jiu, Rong Jiu would die from poison, and she felt that she was carrying another life on her body.

"I'll talk about it when I find the star grass." Mu Yunjin squinted at Hongling. At this juncture, he couldn't find the star grass, so what he said was empty.

After saying that, without waiting for Hong Ling to give her a response, she walked out of the alley.

...

When they returned to the City Lord's Mansion, everyone was sorting out the medicinal materials in the hall.

Mu Yunjin walked in with a sullen face, walked to Qiqi's side, and began to arrange the medicinal materials without saying a word.

On the side, Chu Li didn't see her after waking up early in the morning. Later, when he came back and heard what Hua Ying said, he knew that she went to see Rong Jiu at the inn last night.

Seeing Mu Yunjin walking back in low spirits at this moment, when the sarcasm came to her lips, she forcibly held back.

"Princess, have you had your breakfast?" Qing Meng looked at Mu Yunjin with concern in her eyes.

Mu Yunjin nodded, "I've eaten."

"I've prepared the Anshen Soup, let me bring it to you now." Qingmeng said.

When mentioning Anshen Tang, Mu Yunjin subconsciously glanced at Chu Li, and seeing that he was lowering his eyes, he didn't even look at himself.

Seeing this, Mu Yunjin sighed slightly.

Qingmeng quickly brought over the Anshen Decoction. Mu Yunjin was holding the medicine bowl, and before she could drink it, she heard Qiqi next to her say, "Now the common medicinal materials are almost prepared, only the uncommon Cliff Grass, September Sky and Star Grass are left."

Hearing the star grass, the corners of Mu Yunjin's eyes twitched, and after pursing her lips, she drank the calming soup in the medicine bowl first.

The bitter taste filled her throat, causing her to stick out her tongue.

"Master, your medicinal soup is very bitter, right? It has a pungent medicinal smell." Qiqi looked at Mu Yunjin and frowned.

As soon as the words came out, everyone's attention was on Mu Yunjin again.

Mu Yunjin twitched the corner of her mouth, "Fortunately, it's not very bitter."

Hearing this, Chu Li glanced at her indifferently, with a cold face, and thought in his heart, this is because he is so happy to meet other men, doesn't he even feel the pain of the medicine?

Thinking of this, Chu Li's eyes darkened even more.

"Cliff grass, September sky, star grass, we have to find a way to find them first, these are very rare, I don't know where to start." Qingmeng said.

"Heavenly Star Herb King has it." Chu Li said suddenly, with a calm tone.

As soon as these words came out, Mu Yunjin's heart tightened, her eyes showed surprise, and she looked at Chu Li in disbelief, "Where do you have the Stargrass?"

"Yeah." Chu Li didn't want to talk to her, so he hummed lightly.

But Mu Yunjin didn't feel Chu Li's mood was inappropriate, and asked, "Why do you have Gastrodia sativa in your place? Isn't it very rare?"

"Is it surprising that there are rare things here?" Chu Li asked back, with a hint of arrogance in his tone.

Mu Yunjin immediately closed her mouth, well, it's really not surprising.

After thinking about it, Mu Yunjin asked again, "Then how many Star Grass do you have?"

If there are two plants in Chu Li's place, then all problems will be solved...

"One." Chu Lidan said.

Hearing this, Mu Yunjin's face darkened like a discouraged ball, it seemed that she really thought it was too beautiful.

Seeing this, Huaying at the side also sighed softly. In the next few days, the master may be worried again.

"In the afternoon, we can go to find Cliff Grass and September Sky first." Qiqi said.

The rest nodded in response.

...

After lunch, everyone started to search for Cliff Grass and September Sky.

Because the medicinal materials were rare, they were divided into several groups on this trip. Qiqi and Lei Yan were in one group, Huaying and Huang Yan were in one group, and Qingmeng and Xiumei stayed in the house to look after Xu Heyu.

Mu Yunjin was assigned to a group with Chu Li.

After leaving the city lord's mansion, Mu Yunjin and Chu Li didn't talk to each other, they just walked on their own, until they reached the suburbs, and Mu Yunjin found that she followed Chu Li to the foot of the mountain where black lotus was once raised.

Speaking of Hei Lian, she still feels confused.

"Have you been to this place?" Before Chu Li was about to go up the mountain, he suddenly turned his head and asked Mu Yunjin.

Mu Yunjin nodded, "Come here, you just raised Heilian here."

"Sure enough, there is nothing you don't know." Chu Li laughed at himself, how much did he like her before, that he told her so many secret things about himself.

On the way back to the City Lord's Mansion last night, it proved once again that she even knew about her blindfold.

When Mu Yunjin heard Chu Li's words, she gave him a weird look, "You told me yourself, and it's not what I want to know."

"..." Chu Li was speechless.

After going up the mountain, the cold wind on the mountain made Mu Yunjin gather the cloak tightly around her body. Fortunately, Huang Yan helped her get a thick cloak, otherwise she would have been frozen to death in the past few days.

"There are medicinal herbs on this mountain?" Mu Yunjin asked while walking.

Chu Li glanced at her, saw her huddled into a ball, and frowned, "Are you cold?"

"Nonsense..." Mu Yunjin blurted out.

After finishing speaking, he realized that what he said was inappropriate, so he immediately changed the topic and smiled bitterly, "It's a good thing, it's not cold."

He trembled a little when he heard her speak, Chu Li took a step closer to her, and stretched out his hand to her...

Waving her hand in mid-air, Mu Yunjin thought that Chu Li was going to attack her, so she quickly took two steps back and glared at him angrily, "You won't deliberately trick me into going up the mountain to kill me, right?"

Speaking of this, Mu Yunjin thought of the decree of the gods again, which is now carried with her.

"I want to kill you, but I still need to lure you up the mountain?" Chu Li looked at her speechlessly, what was going on in this woman's mind.

After finishing the words, he had already approached her, stretched out his hand to hold her shoulder, put the hat on her cloak on her, and stretched out his hand to fasten the buttons of the cloak a little more.

After completing this series of actions, Chu Li let go of her and continued to walk up the mountain.

Mu Yunjin was stunned for a while, then secretly laughed out loud, taking advantage of Chu Li in front of her not noticing, she stepped up to catch up.

Because of the cold weather, the mountain is now bare and there is no fresh green to be seen.

"There are herbs on this mountain?" Mu Yunjin asked Chu Li again.

Chu Li looked at her sideways, and found that she was even more petite after being wrapped in a cloak, only showing a small white face facing him.

Inexplicably shaking his mind, he felt an urge to hold her in his arms.

"The star grass is here." Chu Li answered her.

Star Grass...

Mu Yunjin's eyebrows flashed, she bit her lips, and a feeling that made her extremely entangled emerged again, Chu Li didn't tell her that the Star Grass was here, but if she told her, she was afraid that she would suddenly have a convulsion...

No, no, she can't do such a wicked thing.

All the way to the top of the mountain, Mu Yunjin looked around, only to realize that the top of the mountain is full of flowers and plants. Compared with the depression halfway up the mountain, this place seems to be in another world, with lush flowers and plants, fresh and sweet.

She remembered that Chu Li had set up a formation seal on this mountain, and no one else could set foot here except him.

"This is the Celestial Star Grass." Chu Li walked to a place and squatted down.

Mu Yunjin hurried over and squatted down, her gaze fell on a small orange flower with four petals in front of her, "Is this the one?"

"En." Chu Li nodded.

Mu Yunjin felt a little strange, seeing that the little orange flower was petite and ordinary, it didn't look like a rare species at all.

"Is there really only one plant here?" After Mu Yunjin asked, she looked around and found that there were many similar flowers here, but none of them were exactly the same.

Chu Li glanced at her and frowned, "Who else wants it?"

When she was in the City Lord's Mansion just now, she also asked the same question. He had already clearly answered that there was only one plant. He remembered that her expression was a little frustrated.

Now, she asked again, and her eyes were full of expectation.

"No one, I just asked out of curiosity, don't you think it's a pity that there is only one such rare thing." Mu Yunjin made up a nonsense excuse.

"If it's not a single plant, then it's not rare." Chu Li replied, knowing that Mu Yunjin must be hiding something at this moment.

Chu Li stood up, and took out another blueprint from his sleeve, which had patterns of cliff grass and September sky drawn on it.

"See if there are these two things here." Chu Li handed the blueprint to Mu Yunjin.

Mu Yunjin took it, glanced at the picture above, nodded, and didn't rush to get entangled in the Sky Star Grass, and began to search around.

...

The mountain was cold and windy, and even though there was the sun, it still couldn't resist the chill.

The cold wind was blowing, coupled with the scent of flowers, after smelling it for a long time, the disgusting feeling in Mu Yunjin's stomach came up again, she covered her mouth, walked aside, and retched.

Chu Li heard the sound of retching coming from behind, looked back at Mu Yunjin, and saw that she was squatting aside and retching like the previous two days.

Seeing this, Chu Li frowned and approached her.

"What's wrong with you?" Chu Li asked.

Mu Yunjin was taken aback when she heard Chu Li's voice, took a few deep breaths, and shook her head, "I'm fine, don't worry about me."

"Did you suffer from some chronic illness?"
