On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Chapter 1663 The fate of not cooperating with this princess

Zhang Mao looked at Yan Ruyu as if she were a killing god, so how could he dare to lie?

"No, there is no epidemic."

Yan Ruyu breathed a sigh of relief, but remained calm on the surface: "Who is the person who came with you?"

"They are all good fighters. I don't know them. The Black Cloak sent them to follow me and told them to do my bidding."

Zhang Mao was just an ordinary person, lazy and greedy, with high expectations but poor skills. He never thought that there would be someone who would listen to his orders in this life.

This job not only makes a lot of money, but also allows me to satisfy my desire to be a manager, which is really good.

He didn't think at that time that there was a risk of getting several holes in his body.

"I've told you everything I know. Please forgive me." Zhang Mao's nose was running down his face. "I promise to do a good job in the future and never..."

Linlang blocked his mouth again: "Master, what should we do?"

Yan Ruyu guessed that Zhang Mao was just a small figure and probably knew nothing.

However, since he is already involved, we cannot let him go so easily.

"Send him to the government office and put him in jail. We'll talk about it after this matter is settled."

"Yes."

When Zhang Mao heard this, he cried out in pain, but his mouth was blocked and he could not shout out.

Yan Ruyu walked out of the woods, and the other three were caught. One of them tried to escape but was beaten to death.

The other two, having seen one die, became relatively honest.

Yan Ruyu got straight to the point: "Zhang Mao is dead. This is the consequence of not cooperating."

"Who are you? Tell the truth."

The two looked at each other and had no intention of hiding anything.

"We used to be bodyguards, working in an escort agency. The agency closed down a few days ago, so we started looking for work everywhere."

"Ordinary people? Escorts?" Yan Ruyu sneered, "Do you think I believe it?"

Yinding stepped forward and stabbed one of them in the shoulder.

He cried out in pain: "I am telling the truth. Someone paid for us to come here, and I still have banknotes."

They searched his body for silver ingots and found a silver note worth one hundred taels.

Yan Ruyu glanced at him and asked, "Who is looking for you?"

"He was a man wearing a black cloak, with no visible face. He was generous and paid off our gambling debts for us, and gave us a hundred taels of silver."

"He told us that we just had to follow Zhang Mao to Youcheng and escort a batch of medicinal herbs back, and that we didn't have to worry about anything else."

"We think this is a much easier job than being a bodyguard, and the distance is also shorter."

Who could have thought that something like this would go wrong and that I would get caught.

Both of them are regretting their decision now.

"Regarding the black cloak, think about everything related to him, every detail, think clearly, and tell it all, no matter how big or small."

The two looked at each other, and Yan Ruyu ordered: "Let them separate and speak separately. Whoever speaks more will live."

Their eyes suddenly widened in shock.

Before they could react, they were taken to two sides and interrogated separately.

Yan Ruyu actually didn't have much hope, she just wanted to see if these two people were lying.

What she is more worried about now is that this incident seems to be a signal, which is not good.

This shows that those behind the scenes are not only targeting Shencheng, but also Youcheng.

Yan Ruyu frowned and thought, looking in the direction of Shencheng, not knowing what the situation was like on Huo Changhe's side.

Shencheng, in a small courtyard.

Mr. Mo stirred the small casserole, and the bloody smell inside became lighter.

"how is the situation?"

The man in the black cloak opposite him whispered, "The situation in the city appears calm on the surface, but there are undercurrents surging inside. We must not be careless."

Mr. Mo raised his eyes and looked at him: "Of course, Huo Changhe is extraordinary, how can we underestimate him?"

"Is the scapegoat ready?" he asked again.

The black cloak nodded: "It's ready."

"That's good. The situation outside the Great Wall has already begun to take shape. No one can stop it. Even Huo Changhe can only watch and sigh."

"However, in order to protect you, a scapegoat must be prepared and no clues can be revealed."

"Sir, that's a good idea," the man in the black cloak bowed his head, "Please give me some elixirs to ensure that the people here are safe and sound."

Mr. Mo said nonchalantly, "Why are you in such a hurry? I'll give it to you sooner or later. Hasn't the epidemic come in yet?"

"Sir," the man in the black cloak clenched his hands silently, "once Huo Changhe arrives, the situation will change. I need to take precautions as soon as possible. So, please give me medicine as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too late."

"It's okay to hurt innocent people, but the problem is that if my people also fall ill, there will be no one to do the work, which will be troublesome."

Mr. Mo paused and chuckled, "Well, I'll give it to you sooner or later. You can go get it with the little boy later."

"Thank you sir."

The man in the black cloak stood up to leave, and Mr. Mo said, "Those bodies must be disposed of as soon as possible, so that the government won't find out anything."

The black cloak nodded: "Okay."

The man in the black cloak left, and Mr. Mo scooped out a spoonful of medicine and put it under his nose to smell it.

"Inferior people deserve inferior medicine."

After meeting Military Doctor Cao, Huo Changhe finally felt a little relieved.

Now, except for the three secret guards, the whereabouts of everyone else have been found.

Come to think of it, it has never been as tragic as this time.

Death is death, injury is injury.

They are also forced to hide and cannot show their faces.

When he returned to his residence, the secret guard came to greet him.

"Your Majesty."

"Any news?"

"Not yet," the secret guard shook his head, his expression unable to hide his anxiety.

These secret guards are experts in all aspects and can usually complete difficult tasks alone. But this time, three of them disappeared together, which is really rare.

Huo Changhe frowned noticeably, and said in a relaxed tone: "Don't worry, maybe there is something else that got in the way, or maybe he is lurking in the dark."

Seeing him relaxed, the secret guard also breathed a sigh of relief: "Your Majesty is right."

"If something unexpected happens to us, we will also hide for a day or two."

Huo Changhe nodded and said, "I have good news for you. I have seen Doctor Cao, Feng Shao, and Quan Dao. Quan Dao's injuries are a bit serious, but his life is not in danger."

"Doctor Cao is safe and sound, everything is fine."

This was really good news and everyone was happy.

"That's great, it's really great!"

As he was speaking, someone shouted, "My Lord, Su Wen is awake."

Huo Changhe hurried to the bedside, and Su Wen was about to struggle.

"Don't move, just lie still, how do you feel?"

Su Wen looked ashamed: "Your Majesty, it is my fault..."

"I know everything. You are already doing very well. Now it is important to recover from your injuries. Also, Doctor Cao is fine. Don't blame yourself."

Su Wen's expression eased a little: "That's good."

Thinking of Mu Wu again, her eyes turned red: "Mu Wu, he..."

"I will avenge Mu Wu and give you an explanation!"

Su Wen nodded: "Your Majesty, I have something important to say."

"What's the matter?"

"Regarding those strange living dead, I have made an important discovery."
