Nan Xiao rested here for three days, and the royal ladies came every day to inquire about his welfare.

Their group did not stay in this small village for long, and they set off again three days later.

Fortunately, it is not far from the capital.

As soon as Nanfeng received the news of their assassination, she sent out her own elite troops to continue escorting them. This time, the people she selected were all carefully selected by her. They were several levels higher than before, so even if there were

Assassins are not afraid either.

Their group had already left the city. If they rushed back because they were attacked by assassins, not to mention the food supplies for the victims in the disaster-stricken areas would be delayed, and even the royal family would be criticized.

A royal daughter, can’t she even bear this little turmoil?

A few people packed up and set off in separate groups. Before Nan Xiao got on the carriage, she saw the old man standing in front of the door, staring at her.

To be precise, he was staring at the jade pendant hanging on her waist.

Nan Xiao now had to pay attention to this jade pendant.

She was just about to get off the carriage and have a few words with her grandfather when a big hand suddenly came over, accurately grasped her wrist, and pulled her into the carriage.

The carriage was driving smoothly.

Nan Xiao just fell into Shen Tingzhou's arms, the tip of her nose touched the tip of his nose, and his breathing was entangled with each other.

"Anan, is it beautiful outside? What were you looking at just now?"

Shen Tingzhou's eyes were dark and unclear, and there was a faint smile on the corners of his lips. He couldn't help but tighten his arms around her waist, tightening his grip.

His thin lips kissed her cheek, and finally he took the round and small earlobe in his mouth, nibbling it gently with a strong warning.

Nan Xiao couldn't help but tighten her fingers on his white robe, and raised her eyes to glance at him gently.

There was a gentle smile in Shen Tingzhou's voice, "Don't look, I don't allow you to look at other men, not even a gray-haired old man, Anan...obey me."

"Okay, okay, I won't watch, I won't watch. When will you get rid of your jealous habit?"

Nan Xiao was speechless and helpless, and retaliated by poking his cheek with her finger.

One after another, it becomes a small, soft ball that is quite easy to poke.

Shen Tingzhou snorted softly from his nose and noticed her troublesome hand, with worry in his eyes.

"Show me your hands."

Nan Xiao lifted up her sleeves and saw that her fair arms had suffered several stab wounds, and the scars on them had faint traces of scabs, which could be considered as healing very quickly.

"Thanks to the ointment my grandpa gave me, I apply it every day and the effect is very good."

She knows medicine, so she naturally knows that it must be very laborious for the old man to develop such a thing.

But this man was very generous and gave her several bottles.

Nan Xiao had nothing to repay. He happened to have a few gold bars with him, so he gave them all to the old man.

The old man took it over without too many excuses.

Shen Tingzhou snorted softly and turned his face to one side, "Humph, grandpa, grandpa again, grandpa again, why do you always have so many grandpas?"

A smile flashed in Nan Xiao's eyes, and she turned his face back again. He paused for a short time before turning his head again.

Several times, one after another.

Nan Xiao gritted her teeth, suppressed the urge to hit him, and pulled his face back again, this time messing up his face with her hands.

"There are so many grandpas, but you are the only one who has this handsome and lovable husband. Don't you think so? Hmm? My little husband?"

"Um."

Shen Tingzhou was finally coaxed and felt happy, with the corners of his lips slightly raised.

However, before he was happy for a few seconds, his smile dropped and he looked at her seriously: "Anan, even if you have scars, you are still the most beautiful in my heart."

Nan Xiao raised her eyebrows. Could it be that he had been worried that he would leave scars and become less confident?

However, she doesn't.

The ointment given by the old man also had the effect of removing scars, but now she did not dare to mention the old man again.

Nan Xiao suddenly remembered something and pulled off the jade pendant from his waist.

"By the way, I saw you were very interested in this jade pendant last time. Is there anything special about this jade pendant?"

Shen Tingzhou took the jade pendant, twisted it gently a few times, and finally broke it hard, and the jade pendant was divided into two halves.

Nan Xiao raised her eyebrows slightly.

Is there such a mystery hidden in this little jade pendant?

The jade pendant, which was divided into two halves, was turned over in his hands and quickly merged together.

However, it did not turn into the previous jade pendant, but instead turned into a small piece of token, which was perfectly integrated with no cracks visible.

The front of the token is engraved with a large Chinese character "Jun", while the back has a line of poetry and a seal engraved on it.

Shen Tingzhou said: "I once heard someone mention that twenty years ago, a prime minister of Nanli Kingdom founded an organization, which claimed to be able to know the affairs of the world, and contained hidden secrets to make everyone in the world full. Food crops, a powerful army, medical classics containing the flesh and bones of the living dead, and the most powerful combat weapons in the world."

Nan Xiao chuckled, "It sounds like it has been exaggerated, but if this kind of organization really exists, there must be many people coveting it. By the way, what is the most powerful combat weapon?"

She had seen many medical books with such titles as the flesh and bones of the living dead, but in fact they were useless and had nothing to do with medical skills at all.

She is still interested in this combat weapon.

"Gunpowder, the prime minister once used this thing to directly blow up several mountains, opened a road, and built canals, which allowed trade between the north and the south and made the people rich. Only then did Nanli Kingdom, a small and borderland land, become increasingly prosperous. The annexation of other small countries around it has made Nanli Kingdom its dominant position today. If this thing is used on the battlefield, its power cannot be underestimated."

The interest in Nan Xiao's eyes became more and more intense, "What about this Prime Minister?"

Shen Tingzhou looked at the token and said calmly: "He is dead. The gunpowder developed by him and that organization was coveted by many forces. He has been being hunted. When he was desperate, he used all the gunpowder. Lit up, those pretenders, that institution, and him, almost everything was blown into a pile of black soil, as if it had never appeared."

"So, this token is probably the prime minister's thing?"

Nan Xiao is not stupid, so we can make inferences based on what he said.

Shen Tingzhou nodded: "Yes, that person's name is Shen Jun. He is the eldest son of the Shen family of the Nanli Kingdom's hairpin family. He disguised himself as a woman and sneaked into the court to serve as an official. With his extraordinary talent and wisdom, he only used Within a year, he sat in the position of prime minister."

Nan Xiao looked at the token carefully.

Since that person is dead, why did this token appear in the hands of King Xiaoyao?

Could it be that the two of them are old friends?

Then why did King Xiaoyao give this to her?

Or is it that King Xiaoyao didn't know the origin of this thing at all, and just regarded it as an ordinary jade pendant and gave it to her casually?

"Little one, then why do you know this?"
