The Path of the Pharmacist's Favorite Concubine

Chapter 161
After eating and seeing the sun was still early, Huilan planned to go to the shop to see if there was anything interesting.

First went to the jewelry store, the shopkeeper warmly received them, and took out all the treasures of the shop, she chose a few pieces, all of which were intricately crafted and exquisitely crafted, but also novel and beautiful, looking fresh.

I bought two complete sets of head and face jewelry. The workmanship and patterns are very exquisite and beautiful. I plan to keep them and bring them back to my sister-in-law. I have a good impression of Zhang's daughter.

I went to the antique store again and bought a few good calligraphy, paintings and books, so I can enjoy them when I am bored.

I went around a lot and bought some miscellaneous gadgets. It's time to go back after seeing the weather.

Get in the car, "Go back."

"Yes."

The sky was getting dark and Huilan was resting in the carriage, the night was getting darker, and she thought that it would be good to go out and visit the night market when she was free. Yangzhou is prosperous, and there are quite a lot of interesting places. The storytelling is very good today.

Suddenly the carriage stopped, and Sun Bin yelled, "Who is it? There are assassins protecting Madam."

Huilan opened her eyes, and Dingxiang trembled with fright, this was the first time she encountered such a situation.

Sighing, she patted Ding Xiang, "Don't be afraid that I'm here, you hide in the carriage and don't go out."

Seeing that she was about to go out, she hurriedly stopped her, "Miss, what are you going to do, don't go out, it's dangerous."

"Don't be afraid, I know martial arts, I can protect myself, stay here and don't go out."

Huilan calmed her fear and got out of the carriage.

Standing beside the carriage, he didn't rush to do anything, but observed the situation.

In this very long official road alley, there were four men in black assassinating him. This official road is very spacious and it is the only way for the post station.

The four men in black are not too many, so Sun Bin and the imperial guards can take care of them. Huilan subconsciously raised her head to look around the roof, and keenly noticed a man running fast on the beam with an arrow barrel on his back .

She got into the carriage and took out a longbow, pulled out an arrow, drew the bow and shot the arrow, the man on the roof fell to the ground with a muffled grunt, and rolled off the roof.

The man in black attacked the imperial guards more and more fiercely, trying to kill Huilan.

Looking at this posture, it seems that she must complete the task. She is very strange, she is not famous, she is just a harem woman, why she wants to kill me like crazy, it is really strange.

"Quick battle, no survivors, these people are dead soldiers."

Sun Binde ordered to intensify the attack, and Huilan raised an arrow to shoot to help them kill the enemy quickly.

Her arrows are very accurate, and there is no chance of survival after being hit by an arrow, which greatly boosts morale and makes the Imperial Guards calmer and calmer.

After all, the imperial guards came from elite soldiers and good generals, and they were skilled in martial arts. They quickly killed all the assassins. Sun Bin knelt down on one knee, "Mrs. Hui, they are all dead soldiers. There is poison in their teeth. They are all dead."

"Take it back and report to His Highness."

"Yes."

"Today, if you have meritorious protection, I will reward you with a Huang Jing Pill."

Huilan got into the carriage and threw out a porcelain bottle, which was filled with Huang Jing Dan, which is used by martial arts practitioners to replenish qi and blood and strengthen internal strength.

Don't underestimate this kind of medicine, monks who have too many traumas also take it to replenish qi and blood, not all martial arts practitioners can afford it, it is very expensive.

Sun Bin opened it and sniffed it, then grinned at the imperial guard behind him with a big smile.

"Thank you ma'am."

"Thank you ma'am."

"This is what you deserve. It's best to eat it when you break through. If you feel that you can't keep it, eat it quickly. Be careful not to be taken away."

"Yes."

"Go back."

The carriage started up again, leaving two guards to deal with the corpse, and Huilan took the first step.

Ding Xiang didn't go out, knowing that she couldn't help but show up and cause trouble, but she was still very scared, and she kept shaking while tugging at her arm.

"Miss, are you okay, why did they kill you?"

"I'm not too sure, I have to go back and ask His Highness."

After entering the gate of the inn, Li Chengze hurried over wearing a black brocade flying crane cloak, and personally carried her off the carriage.

"Lan'er, are you injured? Are you scared? I got the news a little too late and hurried back. Where's the assassin?"

"Ze Lang, don't worry, I'm fine, I still have the ability to protect myself, I'll ask someone to bring the assassin back, you can check if there are any clues, there is also an archer, there are five people in total, it's just why they want to kill me , I am not famous as a harem girl."

Li Chengze's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and a dark and cold storm gathered in his star pupils.

"I'm afraid they will kill you to threaten me, stop checking the salt tax, or hope that I will just let it go. They gave me a lot of bank notes before, and hope that I will make a difference. I can pay the job and they can keep their official position. I make deals."

"That's how it is. I dare not touch you for fear of causing the emperor's wrath. The death of a crown prince is a turmoil for the country. They cannot bear the charge of this crime, but the death of a crown prince and concubine Ji is no big deal. At most, it can only give the Ding family some comfort. You can't seek justice for a concubine Ji, it's a good idea to shake the mountain and shake the tiger."

Huilan nodded and gave her evaluation.

"You're stupid, who can help you? Don't worry, I will definitely give you justice. This matter must not be let go. Anyone who dares to touch me will seek death!"

Li Chengze gritted his teeth angrily, he lost all his face, the dignified prince couldn't protect his own woman, let Huilan be assassinated, this is a little bit capable and able to protect himself, if it is another woman who can't fight, wait for death.

"Okay, catch the prisoner and remember to tell me that I am useful. I haven't tested a new drug for a long time. Animals and humans have different medicinal properties."

Huilan touched his face and smiled grinningly, but the meaning behind her words made people shudder.

"Okay, it's up to you."

Li Chengze hugged her and prepared to go back to the house.

Huilan tugged at his lapel before saying, "Zelang, today Sun Bin and a few brothers from the imperial guards will protect me to the death so that I will be safe and sound. Don't forget to reward them."

"Okay, their goodness is indispensable. I will take you back to rest first, and Ding Xiang will let someone boil water for your master to bathe."

"Yes."

Ding Xiang trotted to the kitchen to order, and then made some supper for the masters to eat.

Li Chengze carried her all the way back to the yard, put her on the chair, held her for a long time without speaking, just hugged her tightly in his arms, his arms trembling slightly.

Huilan frowned, she felt Li Chengze was afraid, trembling in panic.

"I'm fine. Although I have lost my previous cultivation, I still have the power to protect myself. Don't worry about me, I'm not that fragile."

"Lan'er, you have to protect yourself. I... I was terrified when I got the news. It's the first time I've grown up so scared. The queen poisoned me, my father was afraid, and my brother was plotting against the wall. I've never been afraid."

Li Chengze's voice was a little hoarse, with more tiredness and anger.

When she got the news and came out of the banquet, she almost fell down. She was very flustered. She was afraid that something might happen to Huilan. She didn't know when she had already put this cunning woman who was used to playing tricks, acting like a baby, and foolishly on the top of her heart.

The love didn't know where it started, and it went deeper and deeper, and he sank deeper than he thought.
