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

Chapter 1710 Returning like an arrow

Yinding was extremely happy to see the starling come back.

Yan Ruyu took the letter and found it thick and did not seem to be sent by a carrier pigeon.

"Are Zhao Liang and the others back?"

"Yes, they brought the letter back."

Yan Ruyu unfolded the letter and realized that Huo Changhe had captured Yao Xiaochen, the person who made and poisoned the drug outside the Great Wall.

He was not a wicked person, but he was blinded by hatred. His grandfather Yao Mengchen was abducted by people from the tribe outside the Great Wall and was cruelly tortured to death. He went through untold hardships, but all he found was a tattered and incomplete skeleton of his grandfather, and he had not even been buried.

Yao Xiaochen already felt deeply guilty and regretful for not reconciling with his grandfather after a previous quarrel. When he saw his grandfather's corpse, he was even more sad and determined to avenge his grandfather.

He changed his name and adopted a local blind woman as his stepmother. He integrated into the lives of the locals and, except for his face, was no different from the locals.

Changing his appearance was not a difficult matter for him. He had an excellent skill in using poisons, so changing skin color and deepening eye sockets were no problem at all.

Many years passed, and the old woman died. He inherited everything from her. If it were not for the deep hatred in his heart, he would have thought that he was a person from outside the Great Wall.

The opportunity for revenge finally came. Someone in the tribe was sick, and the original doctor was old and his medical skills were average. Now he could not treat any diseases.

Yao Xiaochen volunteered to help get the medicine and gradually took over the old doctor's job of treating patients. After a while, everyone found that this young man's medical skills were better than the old doctor's.

The old doctor was also helpless and gave everything in his medicine box to Yao Xiaochen.

At this point, Yao Xiaochen completely replaced the old doctor and became the new doctor in the tribe, and was highly respected by everyone.

They also often gave Yao Xiaochen gifts to show their gratitude.

But Yao Xiaochen's desire for revenge had never been shaken. Looking at the smiling faces of these people, he felt they were extremely hypocritical. The more they smiled, the more he thought of his grandfather who had died tragically.

Unconsciously, he had gained a high reputation in the tribe. After all, every family had a sick person, and they were all saved by him.

At this time, his plan of revenge began to be slowly implemented.

A poisonous technique reappeared in the tribe, stirring up trouble.

A large number of people in the tribe fell ill, and after Yao Xiaochen's "day and night rescue", a small number of them were able to recover.

No one doubted his medical skills, but they hated the viciousness of the hostile tribe. If he hadn't taken action, the entire tribe would probably have died.

Yao Xiaochen watched a large number of people die, and not only did no one doubt him, but instead believed that he was a savior hero.

Yan Ruyu flipped through the letter and felt a sigh in her heart. Even through Huo Changhe's letter, she could feel Yao Xiaochen's hatred.

The grandfather who had depended on him since childhood, who taught him skills and how to identify various herbs and who showed him all his love, died tragically outside the Great Wall. It is hard to imagine how Yao Xiaochen felt when he saw his grandfather's skeleton.

Yan Ruyu thought of her grandfather, whose whereabouts were still unknown. She had no idea where he was or what kind of person he had become.

if……

She shuddered and suppressed the thought.

No, never.

But she couldn't help but wonder, if it were her, would she be willing to let it go?

not necessarily.

Yan Ruyu felt mixed emotions but had no answer.

Continuing to read the letter, Huo Changhe wrote in it that Yao Xiaochen had never heard of Mr. Mo, but he had met a few people from the Central Plains who had mentioned to him that they could provide him with medicinal materials.

He politely declined, but those people went to see the chief, and the chief must have agreed.

Yao Xiaochen did not try to stop him. After all, the matter was under his control. Others thought it was an epidemic, which was exactly what he wanted.

As for how those people from the Central Plains spread the matter and raised the price of medicine after returning to the interior, he had no idea.

Yan Ruyu frowned slightly. Huo Changhe said in the letter that through Yao Xiaochen's description, it can be confirmed that among those Central Plains people, there is a ghost hand. He asked Yao Xiaochen to secretly look at the ghost hand through the window, and Yao Xiaochen confirmed it.

Sure enough, those people from Central Plains were Mr. Mo’s men.

He wanted to use this incident to stir up a bloody storm in Shanghai.

Fortunately, everything was done in time and was nipped in the bud.

The matter is basically over. Catching Mr. Mo is a long-term task. Being able to catch the ghost hand this time is already a huge gain. After some more finishing touches, Huo Changhe will return.

Yan Ruyu raised the corners of her lips unconsciously, finally she was coming back.

However, I should also write a letter to Princess Mingzhao, telling her that the matter has been resolved, and that she can return if she wants, but if she doesn't want to return, she can go traveling.

Wen Zhiyan is also on his way back and will be back in Youcheng soon.

Thus, this matter can finally come to an end.

Yan Ruyu picked up her pen and sent a letter to Huo Changhe by carrier pigeon, telling him to wait for him to come back and that she had good news for him.

……

When Huo Changhe received the letter, he had just said goodbye to Xiao Chiye, who was reluctant to leave.

"Your Majesty, I am reluctant to let you go. You are the only one who can rule this great city..."

Huo Changhe patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't say that again. Just work hard. I'll be in Youcheng. Just keep in touch."

Xiao Chiye also knew that if Huo Changhe stayed here for too long, he would get into unnecessary trouble. If someone saw this and reported it to the court, it would only lead to disaster.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will govern Shencheng well and will not let you down. After this incident, I know that there are still many things that cannot be concluded by common sense. I will be more careful."

Huo Changhe nodded: "Okay, then please pay more attention to what I told you before."

Xiao Chiye said solemnly: "I don't dare to worry about the trouble. It is my duty to find the old prince. Don't worry, I will always pay attention and report any news to you immediately."

Huo Changhe left without letting him see him off.

That night, he took Doctor Cao and others to bid farewell to Cai Jili and Miss Cao.

Miss Cao also wrote a letter to Yan Ruyu and prepared a lot of things. If Huo Changhe hadn't wanted to travel light, she would have prepared a whole car.

"Don't worry, Miss Cao. I will definitely hand these over to the princess. She will be happy to see them."

Miss Cao blushed: "Your Highness, you are joking. How can these vulgar things compare to the things the princess gave me? They are just a small token of my appreciation."

"The thought is what matters most. Moreover, you two saved Army Doctor Cao this time, which was a great help. I will remember this in my heart."

"See you later, farewell."

Huo Changhe jumped on his horse and rode away.

He was so eager to go home that he wished he could go back to Youcheng and see Yan Ruyu immediately.

I think she must have lost a lot of weight these days.

Yan Ruyu was still sleeping when she suddenly heard a vibration in the space.

As soon as the call was connected, I heard the abbot's urgent voice: "Ruyu, that guy named Qiu has left the city."

Yan Ruyu immediately opened her eyes: "Qiukeshi? Where is he going?"
