Chapter 334 Please Accept My Sincere Gift

On the way back to the city, there were no more twists and turns until they entered the capital.

Everyone, including Li Xuan, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Once they were in the capital, they were much safer.

No one dared to attack the eunuchs in broad daylight in the capital.

The more orderly the place, the safer the eunuchs in flowery clothes were.

After all, the power behind them was the imperial power.

In the wilderness, you can pretend to be a bandit and wrestle with the eunuchs in flowery clothes.

But if you do the same in the capital, it would be tantamount to open rebellion.

Daxing is not weak enough to tolerate such arrogance.

After entering the capital, they came to Ping An Commercial Bank smoothly.

They did not go through the main gate, but went in from the back.

And when they arrived at Ping An Commercial Bank, someone naturally met them.

After they parked their horses, they untied the sacks one by one, and they fell to the ground with a dull sound.

The sacks were filled with the robbers they had captured alive earlier, as well as the masked man who attacked them last night.

All of them were drugged by the flower-clothed eunuchs and were all unconscious.

After untying all the sacks, the people from Ping An Commercial Bank took all the captives away and took good care of them.

Xu Lang took Li Xuan and two other fifth-rank flower-clothed eunuchs to report.

They came to a secret room in Ping An Commercial Bank, where they met Shang, who was dressed in plain clothes.

Shang, who was smiling, looked like an old accountant in the commercial bank.

When Shang saw Li Xuan stepping on Xu Lang's shoulders and coming in together, his smile became even bigger, and he nodded slightly to him as a greeting.

Li Xuan also meowed at Shang, then jumped onto a chair beside him and yawned loudly.

Next, the three fifth-rank flower-clothed eunuchs reported what happened. Li Xuan was too lazy to get involved, so he pretended to sleep and waited.

Starting with Xu Lang, he reported everything that happened along the way in detail. Shang, the chief steward, listened patiently without interrupting him, only occasionally asking for some details.

When Xu Lang finished speaking, the other two did the same.

But after hearing their report, Li Xuan couldn't help but end his sleep and opened his eyes again.

"General steward, we followed the order and completed the ambush near the Cross Hill Inn early yesterday morning."

After hearing this, Li Xuan tilted his head and felt a little confused about this time point.

"Yesterday morning?"

Yesterday morning, Li Xuan and Xu Lang had just finished fighting with the robbers and it was time to clean up the mess.

At that time, they had not yet come out of the mountainous area, which was when Xu Lang had just sent someone back to report the news.

In terms of time, the Ministry of Internal Affairs should not have received the news yet, so why did they send people to ambush near the inn so early?

Just when Li Xuan was confused, the two fifth-rank eunuchs in flowery clothes continued to report:

"There were a total of 17 people staying in the inn that day, and five of them were suspicious. They set fire during the night attack and then joined the battle in masks. They have been captured and brought back."

"In the evening, five other officials from Chang'an County arrived at the inn. Not long after Xu Lang and his men arrived, one of them secretly released a carrier pigeon."

As he spoke, one of them presented a portrait.

The portrait showed a young constable, who should be the one they said released the carrier pigeon.

Shang Zongguan took the portrait, took a closer look, and then asked:

"Didn't you alarm this person?"

The eunuch in flowery clothes immediately replied:

"This person did not participate in the night attack, and he worked in the Chang'an County Government, so only the portrait was drawn. At this moment, someone is watching his movements."

"Very good."

Shang Zongguan nodded with satisfaction, and then motioned for them to continue.

"We followed the carrier pigeons and found two masked men led by five-grade masters ten miles away. After receiving the news, they immediately took action and attacked the inn at night."

"There were no other commanders, and we didn't see them passing on the news."

After hearing this, Shang Zongguan pondered for a moment and asked:

"Are you sure you put everyone in the inn without missing anyone?"

The two five-grade flower-clothed eunuchs looked at each other first, then nodded silently together, and then dared to confirm to Shang Zongguan: "All the masked men who were ambushed ten miles away have come to the inn, and no one left the team on the way."

"During the battle, most of the masked men were killed or injured, and the rest, including the two five-grade masters who led the team, have been captured alive."

After listening to all the reports, Shang Zongguan closed his eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

And Li Xuan realized that the flower-clothed eunuchs last night did not arrive at the last minute, but had been prepared long ago to kill at the critical moment.

It seems that Manager Shang originally wanted to use Xu Lang and others as bait to catch a big fish.

But now it seems that the result is not very satisfactory.

"Forget it."

After a long time, Shang opened his eyes again and shook his head slightly.

"Take all the captives to the underground prison and interrogate them on the spot."

"The three of you have completed your mission. Take a rest and then follow me back to the palace."

"Yes, steward!"

After receiving the order, the three of them left the room immediately.

Now, only Li Xuan and Shang were left in the room.

After they were left alone, Shang relaxed, propped up his chin with one hand, looked at Li Xuan with interest, and said:

"Ah Xuan, is it fun to go out of the palace to investigate the case this time?"

Li Xuan rolled his eyes at Shang, thinking:

"Do you think I'm a child?"

He quickly moved to Shang's side, and then wrote on the back of Shang's hand with his tail:

"What's going on?"

"What's going on? It's obviously your personal experience, why are you asking me?" Shang couldn't help but joked.

"Meow~~~"

Li Xuan immediately opened his throat in dissatisfaction and shouted in the ear of Shang Zongguan.

"Ouch, it's fine."

"I won't tease you anymore, but you should quickly put away your magical powers."

Shang Zongguan covered the ear closest to Li Xuan and begged for mercy without sincerity.

After hearing this, Li Xuan stopped shouting, but stood up from the table and shook Shang Zongguan with his front paws, asking him to tell him what was going on.

"To be honest, it's nothing."

Shang Zongguan kept it a secret from the beginning. He took a sip of tea slowly, and then slowly said:

"After all, it's your first time to go out of the city to do business, Xuan. I can't rest assured, so I sent someone to pick you up early."

"On the way to pick you up, please help me keep an eye on some things."

Obviously, Shang Zongguan was explaining the content reported by the two fifth-rank flowery eunuchs earlier.

"This matter looks simple, but it is actually very tricky."

"As for where the trick is..."

Shang Zongguan glanced to the side to pay attention to Li Xuan's reaction.

Li Xuan was almost out of patience with Shang Zongguan's repeated official rhetoric.

Seeing Li Xuan's droopy face and unkind eyes, Shang Zongguan laughed and stopped teasing him, and went straight to the point.

"Until now, we still can't determine what the other party's purpose is?"

"Although the goods lost by Ping An Commercial Bank are valuable, they are not valuable enough to make people take such risks."

"I don't understand. If I don't understand the other party's true intention, I can only fall into a passive position."

Li Xuan found that Shang Zongguan was worried about this matter, and immediately wrote:

"Didn't we arrest so many people?"

"We can always interrogate something, right?"

The biggest gain of their trip was to capture the three fifth-grade masters.

The other minions may not know any useful clues, but these three people should still know something, right?

In response, Manager Shang just shook his head and smiled:

"They are just thugs who are out to fight for their lives. It's a pity that we didn't catch anyone who can use their brains this time."

"But Ah Xuan is right. They must have some valuable clues."

"Let's wait for a while. Someone will naturally bring good news later."

Manager Shang said confidently.

Hearing the meaning of those words, there are now people to serve those people.

Li Xuan couldn't help but shudder, feeling sad for the three fifth-grade masters.

You said it would fall into anyone else's hands, but it had to fall into the hands of the flowery eunuch.

Li Xuan also remembered something at this time. He came to the ground and shook his tail, and then took out all the goods he had rescued last night.

A large amount of goods immediately filled the room, and there was almost no place to stay.

"Huh?"

"Are these?"

Previously, Xu Lang's report mentioned that all the goods of Ping An Commercial Bank had been burned, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"Ah Xuan, it seems that you have done something again."

Manager Shang said with a smile:

"Perhaps these goods contain the purpose of the other party taking such a risk."

Manager Shang looked at the goods in front of him and said meaningfully, as if he had thought of something.

Li Xuan couldn't help grinning when Manager Shang praised him, and then rolled up a box from the pile of goods with his tail and handed it to Manager Shang.

Manager Shang didn't even open it, but he already knew it.

"Is this the Ziwu Twin Lotus?"

After saying that, Manager Shang opened the box and saw the Twin Lotus.

The Ziwu Twin Lotus is one black and one white, and there is a faint glow flowing in the stamens, which is very magical.

The appearance alone is completely worthy of the name of a natural treasure.

"Ah Xuan, this Ziwu Twin Lotus is a mutation, and I've seen it for the first time."

"As for its efficacy and how to take it, you have to find a professional to find out."

"It just so happens that Doctor Xue will go to Jingyang Palace for a follow-up visit these days. You can just ask him then."

"Doctor Xue is eager to learn about medicine, and he will definitely be interested in this Ziwu Twin Lotus.

"You don't have to ask him then, he will take the initiative to help you study the characteristics of this Ziwu Twin Lotus."

Shang Zongguan seemed to have a deep understanding of Doctor Xue.

"I can decide on this thing now, and it can be regarded as your reward for this mission, Xuan."

Shang Zongguan said, and closed the box and handed it to Li Xuan.

Li Xuan naturally would not refuse, and happily put the box containing the Ziwu Twin Lotus into his Dihong Bone Ring.

After getting this thing, Li Xuan's work was not in vain this time.

He is now a little impatient to return to the palace and ask Doctor Xue to help him see how to eat this Ziwu Twin Lotus to achieve the best effect.

Shang Zongguan saw that Li Xuan's eyes were narrowed into two slits, and he couldn't help but feel happy for him .

Manager Shang is also very clear about how difficult it is to cultivate both Yin and Yang.

Without the help of these external forces, it is unknown when it will take to cultivate Yin and Yang Qi.

Manager Shang is also very much looking forward to Li Xuan's future.

After all, although Manager Shang has lived for so many years, he has only heard of strong people with both Yin and Yang Qi in books and legends.

If a cat cultivates Yin and Yang Qi, Manager Shang really wants to see what it would be like.

Li Xuan had no interest in other goods.

Shang, the chief steward, immediately asked someone to come in and send these goods outside for safekeeping.

These goods were also important clues to the case. It was a blessing to be able to preserve so many of them during the night raid last night.

Next, Li Xuan had nothing to do.

The rest of the things would naturally be taken over by the professional eunuchs in flowery clothes brought by Shang, the chief steward.

Shang, the chief steward, was busy with his own work, while Li Xuan took a nap in the room to make up for the sleep he had not gotten in the past two days.

Although he did not feel too sleepy or tired, he was inevitably a little listless because he had broken his biological clock for two consecutive days.

Li Xuan took the opportunity now to take a break and replenish his state.

I don't know how long it took before Li Xuan was woken up by Shang, the chief steward, fiddling with his ears.

After Li Xuan opened his eyes, he yawned loudly, then stretched his body comfortably, stretching his body long.

"Ah Xuan, we should go back. "

Hearing this, Li Xuan got up from the table and shook his round head to make himself sober.

It seems that Shang Zongguan has finished his work, and I don't know if he asked the answer I want.

Seeing Li Xuan's curious look at him, Shang Zongguan just smiled and shook his head:

"Those people are just following orders, and they don't know why they are doing this."

"But one thing is certain, they are indeed rushing for this batch of goods."

"It's just that they were able to burn these goods so decisively in the end. It seems that there is something in it that the other party doesn't want others to get."

"As for what it is, there is no answer yet. "

It is not difficult to see that there is a little regret in the expression of Shang Zongguan.

Hearing this, Li Xuan couldn't help but start to recall what was in the previous goods.

But now thinking back, there seems to be nothing special in it.

Of course, except for the Ziwu Twin Lotus.

But these things are rare.

But the person who needs this thing the most in the world should be Li Xuan himself.

Others are actually not very useful.

Even though the Ziwu Twin Lotus is a rare yin and yang balanced natural treasure, the effect of eating it by others is very ordinary, at most it improves the physical condition and balances the yin and yang in the body.

But to achieve such an effect, there are many other cheaper medicinal materials.

There is no need to use such a mutated natural treasure.

Li Xuan also doesn't believe that there is anyone in the world besides him. Such a stubborn and confident person chose to practice both Yin and Yang.

I have never heard of any favored child of heaven who is so depressed.

It makes sense that there has been no strong human with both Yin and Yang attributes in all these years.

Li Xuan is so talented, but he has to practice so hard, let alone others.

If people can clearly see their progress every day, they can persist in many difficult things.

But not everyone can see their progress bar.

How many people gave up at the last moment before dawn and failed to fill in their last bit of progress.

How many people are constantly anxious in confusion because they don’t know where they are now because the road ahead is uncertain, and they consume a lot of their energy and time, making those things that they could have done become difficulties that they can never get through.

This is the difficulty of success.

Therefore, Li Xuan has an immeasurable advantage over other practitioners.

Although he also needs to study hard, he can see his progress every time, not to mention his characteristic of only progressing and not retreating.

Martial arts practice is like sailing against the current and against the will of heaven.

But Li Xuan is different. The resistance he encounters is far less than that of others.

But among the goods of Ping An Company, except for the special Ziwu Twin Lotus, the others are special products of various regions.

Of course, this also includes some famous calligraphy and paintings, ceramics and jades, etc., which are valuable goods that some caravans have found along the way.

As long as the special products of the region can be brought to the capital, they can earn a considerable difference in price.

But these famous calligraphy and paintings and ceramics and jades are a little different.

In fact, the price is about the same everywhere, mainly depending on personal vision.

The manager of the caravan feels that he has picked up a bargain and has enough funds in hand, so he will buy it.

Then after returning to the capital, find some buyers who like to collect these things.

As long as you don't make mistakes, you can earn a good hard work fee every time.

If you pick up a bargain on the way to the capital, you will earn more when you return to the capital.

"What do they want when they rob the caravan?"

Li Xuan thought hard for a while, but he really couldn't think of anything that would make him pay special attention.

"Okay, don't think about it."

Shang Zongguan rubbed Li Xuan's head, and seeing him thinking seriously, he couldn't help laughing.

"The remaining goods are still in our hands. If the things the other party wants are not burned, they will naturally come to us again."

"At that time, we may be able to grasp a little initiative."

"As long as we grasp the initiative, it will not be difficult to force the other party's flaws."

Shang Zongguan is experienced, and Li Xuan naturally believes his words.

"Ah Xuan, let's go back to the palace now."

"Those goods you poured out earlier, I have to trouble you to bring them back for me."

Li Xuan was stunned. He didn't expect Shang Zongguan to be so cautious.

Logically speaking, the people working under him now are all flower-dressed eunuchs from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who are his own direct descendants.

But looking at the appearance of Shang Zongguan, he actually trusts Li Xuan even more.

"Could it be that some of the flower-dressed eunuchs in the Ministry of Internal Affairs have second thoughts?"

Li Xuan swallowed his saliva and couldn't help thinking so.

This matter is not difficult for him, and Li Xuan naturally has no reason to refuse, so he nodded and agreed.

Following Shang Zongguan to the room where the goods are piled outside, Li Xuan can easily see that these goods have been carefully checked once.

Li Xuan shook his tail and easily put all the goods into the Emperor Hong Bone Ring.

Shang Zongguan is also ready, and the convoy that has completed the purchase can set off to return to the palace at any time.

Xu Lang and others have changed back into the clothes of the flower-dressed eunuchs and are sitting in the carriage.

"Ah Xuan, let's go." Shang Zongguan greeted Li Xuan and took him to a carriage.

This carriage happened to be driven by Xu Lang. After Shang got on the carriage, he gave the order to set off.

After receiving the order, the convoy slowly headed towards the palace.

Li Xuan had walked this road several times and had begun to become familiar with it.

The majestic imperial city became larger and larger in his vision. Soon they passed through the gate of the imperial city and stepped into the territory of the palace again.

Li Xuan first followed Shang to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and took out the goods in the Emperor Hong bone ring before being sent back to the gate of Jingyang Palace.

"Ah Xuan, stay at home honestly these days."

"A new round of the Imperial Garden Competition is about to begin. You must get a good result this time."

"You must work hard."

Shang said goodbye and left.

"There are only a few days left."

"It's just that this time, Chief Steward Shang actually took the initiative to remind me."

"It seems that there is something."

Li Xuan's eyes swam around, as if he smelled something unusual.

He thought about what Chief Steward Shang had said before, then turned around and meowed at the two eunuchs guarding the gate of Jingyang Palace, and casually greeted them.

The two eunuchs were stunned for a moment.

They naturally recognized Li Xuan.

The two eunuchs looked at each other, and then silently looked at Li Xuan together, with embarrassment on their faces.

Li Xuan was now standing at the gate of Jingyang Palace. With their eyesight, they naturally had to open the door for Li Xuan.

But the problem was that they couldn't push the gate of Jingyang Palace open by themselves, and at most they could only knock on the door for Li Xuan.

But Li Xuan never walked through the gate on weekdays, and now he suddenly stayed in front of the gate, which really made the two eunuchs at a loss as to what to do.

Li Xuan didn't actually want to go through the main gate, but was thinking about what Shang Zongguan had said to him before.

He felt that there must be something special about the Imperial Garden Competition next month, otherwise Shang Zongguan would not have reminded him specifically.

"Is Emperor Yongyuan going to do something fancy again?"

Li Xuan was quite looking forward to this.

Every time Emperor Yongyuan did something fancy, the reward was pretty good.

Just when the two flowery eunuchs were hesitating whether to knock on the door and inform Li Xuan, they saw Li Xuan suddenly jumped onto the wall of Jingyang Palace and then got in.

Seeing this, the two flowery eunuchs were relieved.

Otherwise, it would be weird for them to inform a cat.

After Li Xuan climbed into Jingyang Palace, it immediately became lively.

"Ah, Xuan is back!"

"Xuan, didn't you say you were only going to be out for two days?"

"Why are you back now?"

"Are you hungry, Xuan? Do you need me to prepare something delicious for you?"

"Yesterday the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent some dried fish. Do you want to try some?"

"Meow, meow..."

Listening to the noises in Jingyang Palace, the two eunuchs guarding the gate smiled at each other silently.

Because Jingyang Palace was a little quiet these two days, they felt a little bored guarding the gate.

But with Li Xuan's return, Jingyang Palace became lively again, and there were many more happy laughs.

People living in the palace are always lonely.

Listening to the sounds coming from Jingyang Palace, the two eunuchs in flowery clothes could not help but feel some envy.

"Hey, I heard there are a lot of wild cats in the Imperial Garden. Do you want to go and feed them when you have time?"

"We don't have any dried fish."

"Just go to the kitchen and get some."

"Well, let's talk about it after we get off work."

The two eunuchs in flowery clothes decided the matter in a few words, and then continued to stand guard at the door.

But for some reason, the time today was particularly slow.

...

In Jingyang Palace, Li Xuan lay in Princess Ankang's arms like a master, eating the dried fish that Yu'er brought to his mouth, while enjoying Princess Ankang's foot massage.

It's called a foot massage, but in fact, Princess Ankang was just pinching Li Xuan's paw pads for fun.

"Ah Xuan, where did you go to play this time? Did you cause trouble to the two stewards?"

Princess Ankang stroked the cat to her heart's content and asked questions that she cared about.

Li Xuan was always taken out to play by the two stewards from time to time, and Princess Ankang was naturally very envious.

She didn't envy leaving the palace, but she envied the two stewards for being able to go out of the palace with Li Xuan to play.

"Meow, woo! (I'm not going out of the palace to play, I'm going to do business!)"

Li Xuan explained dissatisfiedly.

What do you mean he caused trouble to the two stewards? He was obviously going to help, okay?

Li Xuan gave a severe criticism of Princess Ankang's malicious speculation.

"Why are you shouting so loudly?"

"You've been out of the palace for two days, haven't you become more capable?"

"See how I teach you a lesson!"

Princess Ankang said, grabbing two strands of Li Xuan's beard with her hands, gently pulling them, constantly changing Li Xuan's mouth shape, and then dubbing in a rough voice:

"Woo woo woo, I was wrong, I was wrong."

"Ah Xuan will never dare to be mean to the cutest and kindest Princess Ankang in the world again."

Li Xuan rolled his eyes speechlessly, feeling the orchid fragrance sprayed on his head by Princess Ankang, and decided not to bother with the child.

Princess Ankang and Yu'er were both laughing like two little hens.

Princess Ankang hadn't seen Li Xuan for two days, so she pulled his beard and pinched his ears, making him suffer endlessly.

Li Xuan could only silently endure the cuteness that shouldn't be there for his age.

But after Princess Ankang finished the dubbing game, she started to play a double act again.

After she laughed enough, she continued to talk on her own:

"Since you, a little kitty, apologize so sincerely, then I will give you a chance to atone for your sins, right?"

"Take out the gift you bought from outside the palace quickly, otherwise you, a little kitty, will not have a good ending."

After Princess Ankang finished speaking, she changed to a silly and silly voice again, and said in a rough voice:

"Woo woo woo, Ah Xuan knows he was wrong."

"I will offer you a gift of apology for your highness."

After speaking, Princess Ankang reached down with Li Xuan's two front paws, but could only reach his belly.

Yu'er, who was standing by, was very considerate. She grabbed Li Xuan's tail and put it on his belly, so that Li Xuan's front paws could reach the Emperor Hong bone ring on his tail.

"Ah, this..."

Li Xuan secretly said in his heart, "Oh no..." His eyes began to dodge, and he glanced at the distant sky with a guilty conscience.

"It's over. I forgot to buy a gift when I came back!"

He had taken a nap at Ping An Commercial Bank before, and got up and followed Shang Zongguan in the carriage back to the palace.

It was also Li Xuan's fault that he didn't get enough sleep these days and his mind was not clear. He actually forgot to buy a gift when he went home from a business trip.

Facing the expectant eyes of the two girls, Li Xuan moved his sight away guiltily.

Li Xuan's poor cat paws were weakly placed on the Emperor Hong bone ring, but he couldn't take anything out for a long time.

Princess Ankang shook her head and didn't move. She imitated the stone statue and urged Li Xuan in a bad tone: "Where is the gift?"

Yu'er also blinked her eyes and showed a confused look.

"Damn, this woman can't be spoiled too much!"

"Last time I just brought them candied haws, but now every time I leave the palace, they expect me to bring gifts back."

"What's the reason!?"

Li Xuan, who felt guilty, kept finding excuses for himself in his heart, hoping to make himself look more justified.

Seeing that Li Xuan didn't dare to look into her eyes, Princess Ankang's face was stern, and then she took half of the dried fish from the corner of Li Xuan's mouth, then turned Li Xuan's head, squinted her eyes, and asked in a gloomy tone:

"You didn't buy anything?"

Li Xuan immediately stared at her with a pair of innocent big eyes, showing a harmless smile, with a face full of "How could it be?"

"What about the gift?"

At this moment, even Yu'er's eyes looking at Li Xuan changed.

The disappointment that could not be concealed was simply heartbreaking.

Facing Princess Ankang's aggressive cat, Li Xuan had no choice but to shake his tail, took out something from the Emperor Hong bone ring, and held it on his cat's paws.

It was a plate of fragrant West Lake vinegar fish, with plump meat and crystal clear, obviously a rare delicacy in the world.

But in the face of such exquisite delicacies, Princess Ankang was indifferent and asked in a bad tone:

"Isn't this the leftovers you hid two days ago?"

Li Xuan's heart suddenly chilled. He didn't expect that Princess Ankang could see through the origin of this dish so easily.

"Ah Xuan!"

Princess Ankang gritted her teeth and called out Li Xuan's name, and a pair of jade hands were already pressing on Li Xuan's head.

Seeing that he was about to be ravaged by a cat, Li Xuan immediately showed a cat's paw and blocked Princess Ankang.

"Meow! (Wait!)"

Li Xuan honestly took back the plate of West Lake vinegar fish.

It seems that these things he took from Jingyang Palace can't be fooled.

Either Princess Ankang can recognize it, or Yu'er can recognize it.

But in his Emperor Hong bone ring, apart from these things, only that thing can be taken out to deal with the current severe situation.

Li Xuan did not collect this item from Jingyang Palace.

Princess Ankang and Yu'er should have seen it for the first time.

It should be reasonable to take this as a souvenir brought back by Li Xuan from outside the palace.

Li Xuan took a deep breath and planned to make a gamble to see if he could save the current situation.

His tail flicked again and took out an item from the Emperor Hong bone ring.

The item was not big, and Li Xuan's two cat paws could easily hold it, and the color was the same black as Li Xuan.

Li Xuan grinned immediately, showing a sincere fake smile, and then held it in his hand like offering a treasure.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

The next moment, a piercing scream exploded in Li Xuan's ears.

Li Xuan suddenly felt that his body was like flying in the clouds.

It turned out that Princess Ankang threw Li Xuan in her arms and ran away with Yu'er.

"Ah Xuan, you wait!!!"

Princess Ankang's angry voice came from afar.

"Hehehe~"

Li Xuan flew in the air for two and a half weeks, then landed steadily, smiled smugly, and put back the things he had taken out earlier.

He took all the materials in the Emperor Hong bone ring from Jingyang Palace, and could not fool the two girls at all.

Li Xuan had no choice but to take out the treasure at the bottom of the box: a dead big black rat.

This one was the largest in Li Xuan's collection, and naturally scared Princess Ankang and Yu'er to death.

If they just saw a dead rat, Princess Ankang and Yu'er would not be so scared. It was all Li Xuan's fault that he had bad intentions and pretended to take a gift and suddenly took out a big black rat, so the two were so scared.

Look, after Princess Ankang came to her senses, she came to catch Li Xuan.

"Ah Xuan, come here!"

Li Xuan was not stupid, so he would not wait for Princess Ankang to abuse him. He immediately circled in the yard.

Princess Ankang accelerated as fast as she could, but she could not outrun Li Xuan.

It wasn't long before she was out of breath and gasping for breath because of Li Xuan's running away.

At this time, Yu'er also followed them. Seeing them playing the cat and mouse game, she couldn't help but say:

"Ah Xuan, slow down."

"Don't let your highness fall."

"Meow! (If she doesn't chase, she won't fall, right?)"

Li Xuan expressed great dissatisfaction with Yu'er's partiality.

Yu'er seemed to understand and said with a smile: "You are naughty, playing tricks on us with a dead mouse."

After that, Yu'er ignored them and went to the kitchen to get some snacks and tea.

She thought that Princess Ankang and Ah Xuan would be tired after running, so they would definitely need something to eat and drink.

...

After a while, the three little ones gathered around the stone table again and ate snacks with tea.

"Ah Xuan, is this the gift you brought us?"

Princess Ankang looked at the things on the table, although she was full of disbelief, her eyes could not move away.

"I have never seen lotus flowers of this color, and they are twin lotus flowers of different colors, which is amazing!" Yu'er exclaimed on the side.

That's right, Li Xuan took out the Ziwu Twin Lotus again and fooled the two girls that it was a souvenir he brought.

After being deceived once, Princess Ankang naturally didn't believe it, but Yu'er didn't think much about it, just looked at the Ziwu Twin Lotus and marveled.

"Ah Xuan, can this lotus be planted again?"

Princess Ankang asked.

"Oh, that's right!"

After being asked by Princess Ankang, Li Xuan had an idea.

If this Ziwu Twin Lotus can be planted, then can Li Xuan grow more Ziwu Twin Lotus and mass-produce natural treasures with balanced yin and yang properties?

After all, Ziwu Twin Lotus is a natural treasure that has mutated, and there are still many questions about its characteristics.

If it can be planted, he will not lack natural treasures to eat in the future.

Li Xuan looked at Princess Ankang in surprise, then went up to hug her little face and kissed her fiercely.

"Oh, Ah Xuan, your mouth is full of snack residue."

Princess Ankang hid her head back, and although she said words of disgust, she couldn't suppress the corners of her mouth at all.

"It's really my good Ankang, everything he said is a good idea."

Li Xuan thought happily.

When Doctor Xue comes, Li Xuan will have to find him to study it carefully. If they can grow it, their Jingyang Palace will be prosperous in the future.

After Li Xuan showed the Ziwu Twin Lotus to Princess Ankang and Yu'er for a while, he put the box away again.

Princess Ankang asked with some dissatisfaction:

"Ah Xuan, didn't you say that this is a gift for me and Sister Yu'er?"

"Why is it put away now?"

Yu'er on the side just laughed.

They both know that Li Xuan forgot to buy a gift this time.

But if he didn't buy it, it's not a big deal.

It's just that seeing Li Xuan trying so hard to make up a lie, Princess Ankang and Yu'er both found it interesting.

Especially Princess Ankang, she took the opportunity to do something bad, so that Li Xuan kept making up his clumsy lie.

But Princess Ankang looked at Li Xuan's hard work, but she felt warm in her heart, and she didn't know which string was wrong.

...

Two days later.

Doctor Xue came for a "re-examination" as promised.

It's called a follow-up visit, but it's just a formality.

It's not time for Li Xuan to help Princess Ankang absorb the coldness in her body yet.

This matter has a relatively important research significance for Doctor Xue.

But his diagnosis and treatment always have to be a formality, so he would come to Jingyang Palace every few days to drink tea and pretend.

When Doctor Xue arrived, Li Xuan immediately took out the Ziwu Twin Lotus and asked him about the characteristics and effects of this thing.

Doctor Xue was also amazed when he saw the Ziwu Twin Lotus.

"Where did you get this thing?"

"I've never seen it before." Doctor Xue said, and took out some small things from his medicine box and began to study the Ziwu Twin Lotus. It was really the same as what the monk said, and Li Xuan didn't even need to ask him for help.

Before Li Xuan could tell the origin of the Ziwu Twin Lotus, Doctor Xue had already reached a preliminary conclusion.

"Interesting, a plant with balanced yin and yang properties that has been mutated."

"The energy contained in it is enough to be called a natural treasure."

"It's just that it's too young, and the energy contained in it is too little. If it can be kept in the original place for a few more years, it may be better."

Speaking of these words, Doctor Xue actually shook his head with some regret.

"Damn, professional."

Li Xuan hasn't said anything yet, and Doctor Xue has analyzed more information.

Speaking of which, Li Xuan only knows that this Ziwu Twin Lotus is a natural treasure with balanced yin and yang properties.

As for the rest, he knows nothing.

As a result, Doctor Xue looked at it for a while, studying the roots and stems, branches and leaves, and flowers, and now he even knows where the flower originally grew.

Seeing that Doctor Xue was so reliable, Li Xuan hurried forward and asked the question he was most curious about.

"Can this flower be planted?"

Doctor Xue looked at the handwriting written by Li Xuan on the paper and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, as if even he hadn't thought about this question.
