As soon as Nero saw Bai Ruozhu, the wrinkled face that was smiling was almost squeezed into a chrysanthemum, and he said respectfully: "The master and the son are worthy of being capable people, even the monarch treats you as a guest, but the little one is with the right master." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Bai Ruozhu glanced at him and said, "Don't talk about these nice things, how are the things that you are asked to do?"

"How dare I delay, Boss Jacob's side has negotiated, just wait for you to make a decision, otherwise we will bring the goods over now?" Nero asked.

Bai Ruozhu thought that he might be very busy in the future, it was better to choose a day than to hit the day, and it would be best to meet each other today.

She then instructed Jian Qi to arrange for the two to bring the goods, and followed Nero to the boss Jacob he contacted.

Jacob was the owner of a ready-to-wear shop, and he supplied nobles and people with noble status in the Western Regions, so he often bought some fine clothes that were shipped from the Danliang Kingdom.

Bai Ruozhu arrived at Jacob's shop, and soon saw Jacob himself, a businessman who was as fat as Jin Wanliang, and he also had a feeling of being full of fat, but he looked much more shrewd than Jin Wanliang.

The two sides said hello and exchanged a few words, and then negotiated the price and cleared the payment.

"If Madame Bai comes to Gaochang City to do business in the future, don't forget my Jacob. The fat on Boss Jacob's smiling face trembled, it was rare for him to meet such a refreshing businessman as Bai Ruozhu, although it didn't make much profit, but it saved him trouble.

"If I don't come in the future, I'll arrange for Nero to come over for me, and Boss Jacob won't bully my men. Bai Ruozhu said with a smile, she did plan to let Nero be in charge of the running business in the future, and the profit of this running business was really a lot.

"Well said, well said. Jacob laughed.

Suddenly, Jian Qi's face turned grim next to him, and he whispered, "Master, someone is coming, as if they want to surround us." ”

Jacob's face changed, "How could it be? Who would dare to be so arrogant in broad daylight?"

Bai Ruozhu glared at him, could it be that this guy reported the message to the people in the temple?

Jacob was startled by Bai Ruozhu's eye knife, and hurriedly said, "I didn't know you would come in advance, so I can't do anything in this time, right?"

Bai Ruozhu ignored him, because at this moment, people outside had already rushed in.

What appeared were men in black and masked people, in fact, if you looked closely, you could see that it was the temple's moves, and they just didn't want to do it too clearly.

And the number of assassins far exceeds the people brought by Bai Ruozhu, it's not that she is careless, but this is the territory of the temple, she just brings all the secret guards, and if the temple wants to assassinate her, it can also arrange more troops.

This is also the reason why she agreed to the king's proposal to live in the palace temporarily, at least there are many guards inside and outside the palace, and the temple is not good to directly attack the palace in the name of unjustification.

But no matter how much she thought about it, she didn't expect the temple to come to assassinate her with such fanfare in broad daylight, otherwise she wouldn't dare to come to this business.

"Madam, I'll escort you away!" Jian Qi said in a deep voice, and the other two guards who were originally delivering the goods showed a resolute look in their eyes, they were ready to sacrifice, and planned to desperately protect Bai Ruozhu to escape.

Bai Ruozhu twitched fiercely in her heart, these secret guards are her henchmen, since her master gave her people, she has been following her loyally, even if she sometimes unreliable asked them to do some chores, they have no complaints, and even protected her from danger several times, although they are not as often as Jian Qi to serve, but she has long regarded them as friends and even family.

How could she bear to watch them die for her now?

A cold color flashed in Bai Ruozhu's eyes, she shook off Jian Qi's hand and said, "I'm not leaving, if you want to go, let's go together, since you came with me, I won't let anyone die here!"

Nero trembled with fright, and cried when he heard this, but fortunately he didn't know that what Bai Ruozhu said didn't include him at all.

Jian Qi was a little anxious, but he couldn't bear to send his secret guards to death, maybe he could really fight? He hurriedly put a signal outside, and the other secret guards would come immediately after receiving the signal, as long as they could hold on for a quarter of an hour.

Thinking of this, he clenched the sword in his hand, even if he fought to the death, he would not let her suffer the slightest injury.

At this moment, Bai Ruozhu had already raised his hand and sprinkled powder into the air, Jacob reacted quickly, hurriedly covered his mouth and nose, and shouted: "Madam Bai, why am I having some difficulty breathing, I really didn't hurt you, you have to believe me!"

Bai Ruozhu snorted coldly, "If it really doesn't hurt me, I will naturally help you detoxify later." ”

The fine powder spread throughout the room, and the assassin who rushed in first collapsed without a few blows to Jian Qisan.

The assassin was not slow to react, and someone shouted, "Get out of here, it's poisonous!"

The other people who were not poisoned retreated one after another, and Bai Ruozhu immediately shouted: "Go and close the doors and windows, everyone hides under the table!"

They can't get into the house, and the next step is definitely to use a long-range attack.

Sure enough, just when everyone was just hiding, there was a sound of arrows whizzing through the air outside the house, and one arrow after another hit the doors and windows, and some arrows pierced through the window paper and shot into the house.

Jacob was pulled under the table by Bai Ruozhu, followed by an arrow that fell to the place where he was originally lying, his legs and stomach trembled with fright, and he said vigorously: "Thank you Madame Bai for saving your life, thank you Madame Bai for saving your life......"

"Shut up, be quiet for me!" Bai Ruozhu snorted violently, and the frightened Jacob and Nero were both agitated, and neither of them dared to come out.

Bai Ruozhu pricked up her ears, she was listening to the situation outside, so as to respond to the changes outside in time.

"Oh no, they lit fire and shot arrows. Bai Ruozhu said quickly, this is to burn them alive.

"Madam, we can't wait, we'll escort you out!" said one of the guards anxiously.

Bai Ruozhu squatted under the table and pressed his shoulder, "Don't move, let's stand up and wait for rescue." ”

As he spoke, a flaming arrow shot in, and the frightened Jacob screamed again and again, seeing that he was very fat, but when he screamed, he was like a woman, Bai Ruozhu glared at him fiercely, and said, "Don't hinder me from listening to the situation outside, otherwise I will be thrown out as an arrow target!"

Jacob hurriedly reached out and covered his mouth, covering back the scream that he almost blurted out.

At this time, there was another scream in the house, and Jacob looked at Bai Ruozhu pitifully, meaning that this time it was really not him.

Bai Ruozhu saw that the holy guard who had been poisoned and unconscious before was shot by an arrow with fire, and his body quickly caught fire, but because of the poisoning, he couldn't move, so he could only endure the spread of flames on his body, and what was waiting for him was the fate of being burned alive......
