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

Chapter 1905 Murder and Silence

Yan Ruyu had two questions in her mind.

"How did they come up with the idea of going to Youcheng to ask the prince for help? A few common people would tremble when they saw the county magistrate. How could they dare to see the prince?"

"Besides, how do they know that the prince can take care of these things now?"

Huo Changhe nodded: "It is indeed suspicious. If they are doing this intentionally, wanting to test me, or to observe the situation in Youcheng, there must be someone behind this."

"Yes, so I told the abbot not to take them to the palace, but to stay in the government office and let Changxu talk to them."

In the governor's office, even if those people came with a purpose, they did not dare to act rashly.

"Yu'er has thought it through, this is what should happen."

Huo Changhe breathed a sigh of relief, but was secretly worried, wondering who it was.

But for now, we can only wait patiently for news.

He glanced in the direction of Rongzhou and saw the outline of Rongzhou City and the towering city gate. Although it was not as big as Youcheng and Shencheng, it was not small either.

At this moment, I am like a silent beast in the night, and I don’t know what I will encounter on this trip to Rongzhou.

Hu San in front of him also breathed a sigh of relief: "Almost there, less than a mile to go."

Yan Ruyu asked, "So what if we're here? Can you tell the city gates to open?"

At this hour, the city gates were closed.

Hu San looked back at her. They were about to arrive in Rongzhou, which was his territory. He was relaxed and talked more.

"Don't worry about that. We naturally have ways to open the city gates. Not to mention that they haven't been closed for long, we can open them even in the middle of the night!"

Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe looked at each other, anger in their eyes.

As he spoke, his speed quickened, and his heart, returning to Rongzhou, was as fast as an arrow shot from a bow.

He had not run far when a few horses came towards him. When they got close, instead of giving way, they blocked his way.

Yan Ruyu looked up and saw a group of four people, riding tall horses. The knights on horseback were dressed in black, with their faces covered by black cloths. The swords in their hands were unsheathed, flashing with a cold light.

She secretly thought that this was not good. It didn't seem like they were here to pick someone up, but rather to kill someone.

Huo Changhe, Wu Liang and Sun Qing also became alert and stood up from the carriage.

Hu San pulled the reins and asked, "Who are you?"

"What to do?"

The leading man in black opened his hand, and something fell from his hand.

Yan Ruyu was relatively far away, and when the thing swayed, it looked like a jade pendant.

It should be a keepsake of some kind.

Sure enough, when Hu San saw it, his tense body relaxed.

"Ah, so it's one of our own. Are you here to pick us up?"

The man in black said nothing and just beckoned him with his finger.

Hu San was puzzled, but he did as he was told, thinking that maybe there was some news that Yan Ruyu and the others must not hear.

He dismounted and walked up to the man in black without any guard.

"What……"

Before he could utter the word "thing", he saw a stream of blood spurting out.

His throat felt sore and cold, and he looked down in disbelief. Blood was actually spurting out from his own neck.

He raised his hand to cover the wound, slowly fell to the ground, twitched a few times, and then died. Blood silently gushed out and soaked into the ground.

Not to mention Wei Liu and others, even Yan Ruyu was quite surprised.

Wei Liu's smile froze, and he was so frightened that he shouted loudly. Just as he shouted, the man in black urged his horse on, came close to him, and hacked him to death with a knife. The other men were not spared either.

In the blink of an eye, they all turned into corpses.

Huo Changhe and his companions did not hide now. They directly removed the ropes on their bodies, jumped off the carriage, and prepared for a fight.

However, before they could make a move, the man in black turned his horse's head and ran away.

Just, ran away.

Yan Ruyu was puzzled and looked at Huo Changhe in confusion.

Huo Changhe shook his head: "It's not me, I didn't arrange anyone."

Yan Ruyu actually knew that if it was someone arranged by Huo Changhe, he would not kill him.

Besides, if they are willing to surrender and follow us, we can enter the city and directly attack the interior.

Now that Hu San and Wei Liuyi are dead, everything is gone.

They are now blind again and know very little about Rongzhou.

All the bumpy ride along the way was in vain.

But now that things have come to this, everyone is dead, and there is nothing else to say.

Wu Liang and Sun Qing were also confused.

"My Lord, my Princess, what should we do now?"

Yan Ruyu asked Huo Changhe, "Your Majesty, should we go into the city or stay overnight outside?"

If they want to enter the city, they can do so now, but they haven't figured out the background of those people yet, and they might be waiting for them to enter the city.

Or maybe watching them from somewhere.

There are risks whether you are in the city or outside.

Huo Changhe said without hesitation: "Then we'll stay outside the city. Not here. Let's go outside the main city gate."

Wu Liang and Sun Qing also wanted to live outside, where they could live in tents.

Yan Ruyu did not expose their thoughts and nodded in agreement.

The bodies of several people were loaded onto a horse-drawn carriage and taken to a nearby woods for burial. The flatbed cart was placed in the woods and the horses were taken away.

Yan Ruyu asked Wu Liang and Sun Qing to wait outside, and she also put the flatbed cart into the space, maybe it could be used somewhere.

They rode to the main gate.

After changing direction, the men in black went straight back to the city and waited near the city gate.

After waiting for a long time, no one came.

One of them said, "Why hasn't anyone come yet? Are they scared?"

"That shouldn't be the case, right? Didn't the master say that these guys are difficult to deal with and their identities are unknown. Don't underestimate them and avoid provoking them if you can."

"Then why haven't you come yet? Is this city gate still open?"

The order they received was to kill Hu San and his men to silence them, and as for Yan Ruyu and his men, not to touch them, because they would definitely follow them after being released. They would wait here for them to enter the city, and then their mission would be completed.

But no one came after waiting for a long time.

The man in black couldn't help but say, "Let's go and take a look."

When they got closer, they saw that the corpse, the carriage, and Yan Ruyu and the others were all gone.

Only the blood on the ground proved that what had just happened had happened.

Several people looked at each other.

……

Huo Changhe found a good place. There was a piece of land along the river outside the city. There was nothing planted in the land, but there were wild grasses growing there. The grass was quite short, and it was unknown what kind it was. It was soft like a carpet.

There are also several rows of trees outside, which is perfect for camping.

There are trees to provide shade, and the sound of water to help you sleep.

The three men excitedly set up the tent and hung up a small flashlight to use as a light. To avoid being watched, they did not build a fire to cook, but with Yan Ruyu around, they had no reason to worry about food.

Before the two of them went out, Song Ping had already reminded them that whatever the princess did was normal and they should not make a fuss about anything that happened to her.

Anyway, if the princess gives you something, you eat it; if the princess gives you something, you use it; if the princess gives you something, you obey her orders.

The main point is that one should be diligent, eat more and work harder.

They were given two bowls of instant noodles with plenty of toppings.

There are ham and braised eggs in it.

There is also a roast chicken and a pot of cold fruit tea.

The two of them sat in the tent, enjoying the night view and eating delicious food, which was really a great pleasure in life.

Huo Changhe had the right to choose the flavor of instant noodles, which were accompanied by small seafood, and he drank two cans of beer.

The four of them ate and drank happily, while the man in black returned to the city to report, feeling depressed.
