166 Dried anchovies
In addition to snacks, there was also some medicine. Ning Yue poured them out and filled ordinary small glass bottles before stuffing them with wooden corks.
Ning Yue carefully labeled the glass bottles.
After preparing everything, Ning Yue left the space and called Balang over.
“Balang, write a few words for Sister.” Ning Yue took out a small clay jar of dried anchovies to tempt Balang.
Jiang Ying waited outside for half an hour before he saw Ning Yue holding a wooden box with difficulty. He hurriedly went forward to help. “What’s inside?”
“It’s some food and utilities. There are labels on the bottles. Use it according to the amount you need.”
Ning Yue nagged at Jiang Ying for a long time. Jiang Ying felt that she was sweet after hearing this.
Look, he would only returned to the capital for a few days, but Ning Yue was so worried.
If Ning Yue knew what Jiang Ying was thinking, she would probably knock his head.
After Jiang Ying finished talking to Ning Yue, he rushed to the capital.
He wanted to go tomorrow, but the person the crown prince had sent to deliver the letter said that he should set off immediately when he saw this letter.
Alright, there was no way to delay it.
As soon as Jiang Ying’s carriage entered the capital, the crown prince immediately sent someone to send him into the palace.
He had yet to return to the residence to rest and tidy up. The crown prince was in such a hurry. What had happened?
Seeing Jiang Ying’s arrival, the crown prince placed a letter in front of him.
“Take a look first,” the crown prince said.
Seeing this letter, Jiang Ying was a little speechless. This letter said that the Emperor of Russia had already arrived at the Great Yun Nation earlier, but he had gone to Laifu Village first to investigate the little princess that the late Emperor of Russia had lost.
This information confused Jiang Ying.
“The lost princess of the late emperor of Russia? What do you mean?” Jiang Ying asked.
He understood what the lost little princess meant. What he didn’t understand was why the Emperor of Rakshasa had gone to Laifu Village to investigate this matter. Could it be that this matter had something to do with Laifu Village?
“It’s what you think.” The crown prince did not beat around the bush with Jiang Ying. “He said that after the late emperor of Russia investigated Laifu Village, he lost the clues. This time, he happened to visit the Great Yun Nation, so he planned to investigate personally.”
Jiang Ying’s frown deepened. “I suspect that’s just an excuse. He must have other motives.”
“I thought so too. When he came to the capital, he said that he wanted to enter the palace to see Father. I think he has something to do,” the crown prince said.
Originally, the emperor had said that the crown prince should be in charge of managing the country. However, the emperor of Russia was unwilling. He said that he wanted to see the emperor of the Great Yun Nation no matter what, but his dear father was still nowhere to be seen. He had no choice but to call Jiang Ying over first.
“I…”
Jiang Ying was about to say something when someone knocked on the door.
The eunuch hurriedly walked to the Crown Prince’s side and whispered, “Your Highness, the Emperor of Russia is here. He wants to see you.”
“Let him in,” the crown prince said helplessly.
Every day, the Emperor of Russia would enter the palace at this time and tell him that he wanted to see his father. Every time he did not see his father, the other party was not angry and left.
However, the Emperor of Russia was famous. The Crown Prince was worried that if he did not see the Emperor again, he would anger this Bloodthirsty Emperor. At that time, the two countries would become enemies.
The Crown Prince did not understand. What was it that he had to see his father for? Could he not resolve it?
As soon as he entered, the crown prince did not say anything and got someone to take out the snacks Ning Yue had given him.
When Yuan Hui heard that the emperor was not around, he was about to leave when he saw the eunuch bring a plate of snacks over.
He wanted to tell the crown prince that there was no need. He would come again next time, but when he saw what was on the plate, his eyes widened and his mind seemed to go blank for a moment.
The eunuch placed the plate on the table beside Yuan Hui. Yuan Hui picked up the Mala dried anchovies with trembling hands and ate them.
As he ate, the Crown Prince and Jiang Ying watched silently.
Yuan Hui didn’t look away until the plate was finished. He looked at the Crown Prince. “Crown Prince, where did this come from?”
Eh? Finally, he didn’t say that he would go back first and come back tomorrow?
The crown prince responded energetically. “My relative gave this to me.”
He did not sell Ning Yue out immediately.
