God's Daughter, Queen of Miraculous Medicine

The next morning, the sun shone through the clouds, casting a faint golden glow. Gong Tao, wearing a plain long gown, walked towards the military camp alone with firm steps.

From a distance, the majestic military camp looks like an indestructible fortress, inspiring awe.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the military camp, two fully armed and tall soldiers immediately stepped forward to block his way.

One of the soldiers shouted, "Stop! This is a military camp, no one is allowed to approach!"

Seeing this, Gong Tao hurriedly took out his official seal from his bosom, handed it forward respectfully, and explained hastily: "Sir, please be flexible. This is my official seal. I have something important to discuss and need to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in person."

The soldier took the official seal, examined it carefully, and said with no expression on his face, "Wait here for a moment."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the military camp with neat and powerful steps, leaving Gong Tao waiting anxiously there.

After a while, the soldier arrived where Jun Moyuan was.

Jun Moyuan was seen sitting upright in the tent, flipping through a military book in his hands, with a focused and serious expression.

The soldier knelt on one knee, clasped his fists in salute, and then said, "Your Highness, there is a man outside the camp who wants to see you. I think it is the head of the Ministry of Revenue."

Jun Moyuan put down the military book in his hand, nodded slightly, and ordered: "Let him in."

With a serious expression, Gong Tao followed the soldier leading the way in front of him, passed through layers of tents, and finally arrived in front of the main tent.

He took a deep breath, calmed himself, and then walked in with slightly heavy steps.

As soon as he entered the tent, he saw Jun Moyuan sitting at the top with a dignified look. He did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and said loudly: "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Jun Moyuan waved his hand expressionlessly, and said calmly: "No need to be polite. Tell me, what is the reason you came to see me this time?"

Gong Tao stood up, his face full of anxiety. He hesitated for a moment, then mustered up the courage to speak: "Your Highness, I came here this time because the military rations were robbed!"

Hearing this, Jun Moyuan's originally calm face instantly became serious. He narrowed his deep and sharp eyes slightly, stared at Gong Tao closely, and said in a deep voice: "Oh? Everyone else has died, why are you the only one who can come back alive? Is there any other hidden story behind this?"

Gong Tao was shocked, but still replied calmly: "Your Highness, please understand! I was responsible for escorting this batch of military rations, but unexpectedly I encountered a group of vicious robbers on the way. I led everyone to fight desperately, but the other side was large in number and well-trained. We were outnumbered and eventually wiped out..." At this point, Gong Tao couldn't help but choked up and his eyes turned red.

However, Jun Moyuan was not moved by this. He snorted coldly and asked again: "Even so, why were you the only one who was lucky enough to escape? Could it be that the robbers would let you go?"

Gong Tao hurriedly defended himself, "Your Highness, please calm down! The battle was extremely brutal at the time, and I thought I was doomed. But somehow, I was rescued by a kind-hearted person after I fell unconscious. After recuperation for a period of time, my injuries have improved a little. As soon as I was able to move, I rushed to report this to you, Your Highness!"

Jun Moyuan still stared at Gong Tao, not missing any slight changes in his expression, and asked coldly: "Then do you have any evidence to prove that what you just said was not false?"

Gong Tao reported the situation to Jun Moyuan with a pale face: "Your Highness, during the fight, I accidentally saw a token dropped by the thieves. I just picked up the token and before I had time to take a closer look, I was stabbed by their people. What happened afterwards, I really don't know anything!"

Jun Moyuan's face was as gloomy as water. He reached out to take the token and examined it carefully with a sharp gaze.

The token was completely black, and engraved with the identity token of the guards of Prince Yu's Palace.

After a long while, he slowly raised his head and looked at Gong Tao who was kneeling on the ground, and said coldly: "Even so, it cannot completely clear your suspicion."

Upon hearing this, Gong Tao's face turned pale as paper. He fell heavily to his knees with a plop, his forehead pressed tightly against the ground, and cried out in a sobbing voice: "Your Highness, please understand! I am loyal to the court, as the sun and the moon can attest! Even if I have the courage of heaven, I will never dare to betray you!"

Jun Moyuan frowned slightly and asked again: "So, did you see clearly what this token looks like?"

Gong Tao shook his head quickly and replied tremblingly: "Your Highness, after I was rescued, I was very worried that someone would find this token and bring about a fatal disaster, so I never dared to take it out to look at it."

After hearing this, Jun Moyuan couldn't help but fall into deep thought. The camp was silent for a while, with only the occasional shouts of soldiers training outside.

After a long while, he finally broke the silence and said, "Gong Tao, please leave for now. This matter is of great importance. I will investigate it thoroughly and will not let any suspicious person go. If you are really innocent, you will not be implicated; but if there is really a hidden story... humph!"

Gong Tao felt as if he had been pardoned. He kowtowed to express his gratitude and then crawled out of the tent.

After Gong Tao left, Jun Moyuan sat alone at the desk, staring at the token in his hand, thinking to himself: The robbery of military rations now seems more and more confusing, and there seems to be a huge conspiracy behind it.
