After the indigenous heroine was reborn, she went crazy and reorganized the plot line

"City Lord, isn't the thing you asked me to bring meant for Doctor Rong?"

The guard was holding a brocade box in his hand and asked Yan Liang in confusion.

Yan Liang sat on the chair and looked at the teacup on the table. The tea in it had already gone cold.

"I'll definitely be able to give it to her later, there's no rush."

The guards could not ask about their master's affairs any more and could only lower their heads in silence.

-

Over there, Rong Su left the City Lord's Mansion and followed the guards to the mica mine.

Because the mine was behind the city, some distance away, the guards went to find a carriage.

Just as she was about to get on the carriage, she heard Gu Yuer calling her.

"Sister Rong! Sister Rong! Where are you going?"

I stopped and turned around to see the siblings Gu Yun and Gu Yuer walking out of a shop selling pens, ink, paper and inkstone.

Gu Yun saw the carriage and Yan Liang's guards, and seemed to realize something. He looked at her and asked, "Is the city lord looking for Asu to do something?"

Rong Su felt that this was nothing to hide, so she told them the truth: "I'm going to visit the mica mine."

When he heard Rong Su was going to the mine, Gu Yun frowned and said with some worry: "There is copper mica in the mine, so the poisonous gas must be heavy."

Hearing his concern, Rong Su naturally understood the situation at the mine and had already prepared something to deal with it.

"Don't worry, I have my own medicine that can temporarily prevent the poison gas."

Although he knew she was prepared, Gu Yun still felt a little worried. After thinking for a moment, he suggested, "Can I go with you?"

Rong Su was stunned for a moment, then looked at the things in their hands. Just as she was about to say something, Gu Yuer seemed to realize something and immediately snatched the things from Gu Yun's hands. She said with a smile, "Hehe, then brother, you can escort Sister Rong. I can carry the things back myself!"

As she said this, she ran away.

Gu Yun and Rong Su looked at each other, and he smiled helplessly.

In fact, the carriage was large enough to accommodate one more person, so Rong Su did not refuse Gu Yun's kindness.

The two of them got on the carriage, and the guards began to drive the carriage towards the mine.

They sat together inside, not talking to each other, and were very quiet.

Rong Su pulled out a bottle of medicine from her sleeve, opened it, and handed a pill to him: "This is a pill that can temporarily delay the poison from invading your body."

Gu Yun didn't hesitate, took it and put it in his mouth: "Thank you."

Seeing his trust, Rong Su felt a little teasing: "Gu Yun is not afraid. What if my pills are not something that can temporarily relieve the poison? What will you do?"

The other party didn't seem to care about her teasing. He smiled lightly and then looked at her with some difficult to hide emotions in his eyes.

"Whatever Ah Su gives me, whether it's poison or medicine, I probably won't hesitate and will accept it all."

After hearing this, Rong Su calmed down and looked at him for a long time. His eyes were full of affection, forcing her to look away and look elsewhere. She suddenly felt that she shouldn't have said this.

Seeing that she was silent, Gu Yun's eyes flashed with disappointment, but the disappointment did not last too long. He felt that some things could not be rushed and had to be done step by step.

At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped, the curtain was lifted, Shen Peiqing jumped onto the carriage and sat in it by himself.

Seeing this, Rong Su frowned. The guard driving the carriage hurriedly explained to her, "I've already told Master Shen, but he seems to insist on going with you. Doctor Rong. Then this."

Looking at Shen Peiqing, he crossed his arms, closed his eyes, and looked like no one could drive him away.

Rong Su held his forehead in his hand, speechless, and waved to the guard: "Forget it, you can continue driving."

The guard looked apologetic and turned around to continue driving, and the carriage continued to move forward.

The carriage was silent for a while. Gu Yun looked at Rong Su, then at Shen Peiqing. After weighing the pros and cons, he said to Shen Peiqing slowly, "Brother Shen. What a coincidence! Are you out on business?"

Shen Peiqing opened his eyes and looked at Gu Yun, saying calmly, "Almost. I see your carriage is going to the mine, right?"

Just as Gu Yun was about to speak, Rong Su stared at Shen Peiqing coldly: "Since you know we are going to do something, why did you come up? You have so much free time, you might as well practice your skills more."

These words were a bit stinging and most people who heard them would feel uncomfortable, but Shen Peiqing had become accustomed to Rong Su's cold treatment.

He remained calm and unmoved. "Don't worry about that. I'll practice as needed. You went to the mine simply to understand the situation there and to find a solution to the poisonous gas emitted by the copper mica."

After hearing his words, Rong Su narrowed her eyes slightly. This guy is quite smart. She did not respond.

Seeing that she didn't reply, Shen Peiqing didn't get anxious. He spoke slowly and calmly, "I'm going with you, not because I'm worried about you. I've read a lot over the years and know a lot. I'm also curious about what kind of jade copper mica is and why it has the ability to emit poisonous gas, so I thought I'd go and take a look."

Oh, it seems like he's just someone who's eager to watch the fun. Rong Su glanced at him speechlessly and pretended to ignore him: "Whatever."

If he wants to go, let him go, as long as he doesn't get in the way.

Seeing that Rong Su did not chase him away, a smile flashed across Shen Peiqing's eyes without him even noticing it.

Gu Yun inadvertently saw it. He lowered his eyes slightly, and when he raised them again, he said to Rong Su with a faint smile, "A Su, since Brother Shen is going, there is poisonous gas in the mine, why don't you give Brother Shen a portion of the pills you just gave me?"

Having almost forgotten about this, Rong Su took out another pill and handed one to Shen Peiqing.

Shen Peiqing took it, took a look at it, and swallowed it without any hesitation.

However, Rong Su didn't say anything, so Shen Peiqing naturally couldn't doubt her, otherwise he wouldn't be willing to let her treat him.

Rong Su's idea was not the same as Gu Yun's. Gu Yun looked at Shen Peiqing and took Rong Su's things without hesitation, and Rong Su did not wonder why Shen Peiqing did not hesitate. There seemed to be an invisible tacit understanding between them that others could not explain.

Thinking of this, Gu Yun felt a trace of jealousy in his heart that he was not even aware of.

After about a quarter of an hour, the carriage finally stopped.

The three of them got off the carriage one after another.

After getting off the carriage, I saw a cave in front of me that was taller than the three-story restaurant.

The outside of the cave was surrounded by a thorny fence, and there were several guards guarding it not far away.

The cave was like an airtight prison, not even a bug could get in.

It is very closely guarded.

After sighing, the guard parked the carriage, walked over to Rong Su, and began to introduce: "This cave is where copper mica is mined. I will take you in now."

The guard had already taken her pills before, so Rong Su let him lead the way.

As they walked over, several guards saw them. The guard who led them greeted the guards and released the token, and they entered unhindered.

She actually remembered the guard who led the way. He was the guard who had previously detained Yin Niang and then ran back to report to Yan Liang. However, she forgot to ask his name.

"Brother guard, I forgot to ask your name." Rong Su finally asked.

The guard slapped his forehead and said with a smile, "It's my fault. I forgot to introduce myself to you all. My name is Xiao Si. I am the second-class guard beside the city lord."

After remembering his name, Rong Su asked, "When did you discover this copper mica?"

Xiao Si pondered for a moment, then replied while guiding them, "It was discovered about a month ago by an old miner. The copper mica was exceptional in color, appearance, and hardness. When it was unearthed and the craftsmen created the first jade artifact, the dignitaries of the Three Continents heard the news and sent people to see it."

"Later, the city lord saw that jade articles and ornaments made of copper mica were very popular, so he signed sales contracts with many nobles in the state capital. Unfortunately, who could have known that this situation would occur now."

Xiao Si sighed, with a hint of regret and sorrow on his face.

Soon, they reached the depths of the cave, where a strong, pungent smell filled the air.

If he hadn't taken the pills she had prepared in advance, he might have collapsed from the poison by now.

Under the light, you can see some emerald green stones embedded between the stones with the naked eye.

She walked closer, squatted down, took out a handkerchief, and touched it through the handkerchief.

These brightly colored stones are copper mica, no wonder they are named mica. Their shapes are similar to mica-style blocks, but their colors are bright.

"No wonder this kind of stone is so popular among nobles. The crystal transparency is more thorough than that of ordinary jade." Shen Peiqing looked at the stones and spoke in a calm voice.

As the former Crown Prince of Beizhou, Shen Peiqing has naturally seen many precious jades. To receive such praise from him, it can be seen that this copper mica is indeed a good thing.

Xiao Si also agreed with Shen Peiqing's words and nodded repeatedly: "That's right, I was also very surprised when I saw it for the first time. I have never seen such beautiful and crystal clear jade. However, the disadvantage is that it emits poisonous gas."

Rong Su looked around the mine. It was closed and poorly ventilated. In this case, the jade itself would emit poisonous gas, which was indeed fatal to humans.

"If there is something that can absorb the poisonous gas emitted by jade, perhaps it will be better for the miners." Gu Yun pondered for a moment and put forward his own idea.

Absorbing poisonous gas? Rong Su pondered for a moment. When she was a child, she also loved reading various miscellaneous books, and she could always glimpse some strange and bizarre things in them.

In her memory, she seemed to have seen something that seemed to be able to absorb poison gas, but she couldn't remember it at the moment.

While deep in thought, Shen Peiqing seemed to have an idea, and said, "There's a kind of charcoal wood. I remember seeing it in a strange picture book. It has the ability to absorb poisonous gases. It was discovered by a tourist who was sightseeing. He was amazed at its ability to absorb poisonous gases and named it live charcoal because it can breathe like a human."

After hearing this, Rong Su looked at Shen Peiqing. It seemed that he had also read the picture book.

After hearing this, Xiao Si became excited: "Is there really such a magical thing? Then, Master Shen, do you know where to find it?"

Shen Peiqing looked at the copper mica, walked back and forth a few steps, thought, and then said: "Live charcoal also grows on the mountain. As for where, I don't remember it being written in detail in the picture book."

Just when he thought there was hope, Xiao Si was disappointed when he heard that Shen Peiqing had no way to tell him where the live charcoal was. He drooped his face and sighed, "Alas. So, it's all hopeless. Is the mica destined to remain buried in this mine forever, never to see the light of day?"

Seeing Xiao Si's pity for Yun Mu's inability to display her beauty, Rong Su said calmly, "Since we know that live charcoal can absorb poison gas, and that live charcoal does exist, we'll definitely find it if we look carefully. It's not a good idea to lose heart before we even start looking for it. You should report this matter to the City Lord and let him make the decision."

After hearing Rong Su's words of comfort, Xiao Si's discouragement disappeared. "Doctor Rong is absolutely right. Now that we have a solution, it depends on human effort. We need to do our best, and the final result will depend on fate."

Seeing that he listened, Rong Su smiled and nodded.

Then they left the mine. Since they had made up their minds, they couldn't stay any longer. After all, if they stayed here for a moment longer, they might be in danger of poisoning.

In the carriage, there was no expression on Shen Peiqing's handsome face, but his tone was teasing.

"Those who don't know how to comfort others have made a lot of progress now."

He said this in an obscure way, but Rong Su could hear that he was mocking her for not knowing how to comfort people in the past, but knowing how to do it now.

This guy always finds fault with her at any time and in any place. Rong Su is used to it, but that doesn't mean she can let him do it every time.

"Anyone can be comforted, except for one person. I absolutely won't spend this kind of effort on him."

The words were not very straightforward, but those who should understand could understand them. Shen Peiqing clenched his fists, his eyes slightly colder, and then he pulled down his thin lips and sneered: "Doctor Rong is really good at telling people what to say and telling them what to say."

If you like to say such sarcastic words, then why not accompany me to the end? She grinned at Shen Peiqing: "Who is a human and who is a ghost? I know it clearly in my heart."

"You!" Shen Peiqing was the first to fail and glared at her angrily.

Gu Yun watched them sarcastically mocking each other. They were clearly being hostile to each other, but he felt very uncomfortable in his heart. He felt a sense of alienation as if he could not get between them no matter what.

Soon, when they returned to the door of Huimenxuan, Xiao Si went back to report the matter of the live charcoal to Yan Liang, and they naturally had to do what they should do first.

Rong Su and Gu Yun would still go together to plant herbs.

Shen Peiqing, who had already entered the gate of Huimenxuan, couldn't help but turn around to look at the couple walking together.

He looked for a while before slowly turning around and going in.

-

The field where herbs are grown is just behind Huimenxuan Mountain. It’s not far away and it takes about half an hour to walk there.

On the road, they walked side by side, looking at each other without saying a word. From time to time, passers-by would see them and stop to greet them.

When they were almost at the back of the mountain, Gu Yun said in a calm tone, "A Su and Brother Shen seem to be on much better terms than before."

After hearing this, Rong Su frowned, thinking that Gu Yun might have seen it wrong. How could she have a good relationship with Shen Peiqing?

"How can I have a good relationship with him? When he and I meet, it's like water meeting fire. They are incompatible."

Gu Yun glanced at her sideways, and seeing her expression was indifferent, he withdrew his gaze and said softly, "Maybe I'm wrong."

"That's right." Rong Su nodded in agreement without thinking too much.

The two began to divide the work and cooperate with each other to do the planting work.
