Chapter 123 First
No one was surprised, it wasn't a life-and-death struggle, and no one used their housekeeping skills. Even if the comparison between Poplar and the poison guard seems to be extremely dangerous, only Poplar himself knows that he only used three points of skill, but the final outcome must be that he will win.
With the slash of the sword, the dead poisonous guard's stomach flowed out of the rotten internal organs. And in those soups and waters, a dark green arrow shone a strange green light in the sunlight.
"It's really an ice arrow, but unfortunately there is no way to present it to the emperor."
"Your emperor is really a bad taste, what's so good about a broken arrow that is about to melt away? It's better to find a master of poison and see what poison ingredients are in the ice arrows. It was Miss Qinglian who spoke, which made several young ladies look at her strangely.
"Talkative, you don't leave after the competition, what are you doing here? Waiting for the reward! The head of the guard said fiercely.
The tone of the head of the guard was extremely impatient, and he always felt that something was wrong in the ears of several young ladies. When she walked back, Bai Wan'er, who had no heart for the city, couldn't help asking.
"Miss Qinglian, you know the head of the guard."
"Yes, I used to know him, but he forgot me. That year, when my master and I were wandering, we were besieged by the enemy, and he was the one who saved us. Qinglian's participation in the five-year election this time is also the master's order to repay the life-saving grace of the year. Not just for someone, but to serve the court of the Great Yan Kingdom. ”
"What is serving the court, it is almost the same as hilarious palace." The vernal equinox laughed.
"I was able to go home today, but now I don't know how it will change." Miss Jinyan was worried.
By the time the five of them returned to Fengyi Palace, all the young ladies had already gathered in the courtyard. Seeing the poplars, they came back to see it, and the old lady who had been speaking for the queen was quite impatient to announce the results of the primary election.
"Ladies, this is the first time that someone has died in the five-year election. And it was the emperor's personal guards who died, and the emperor and queen were dealing with this matter. The comprehensive evaluation has also been suspended for the time being, and the specific ranking will be sent to your respective homes at a later date. The eliminated young lady will go back together tonight, waiting for the royal summons to enter the palace at any time. Your days with your parents are numbered, cherish them. When you enter the palace, you are a royal person, and you can enjoy endless glory and wealth. The old lady's words were full of anger. When the relationship is dead, the emperor's personal guards are considered dead. What are the three young ladies who made it before? Many people regret participating in this five-year election.
"Mama, how can we go back when it's so late? My family lives in an outer city, can I walk back? A eliminated young lady said angrily.
"It's your own business how you get back. When you enter the palace and become a palace maid, you will go more when you walk. I thought it was a daughter. I cherish the days when I was favored in front of my parents. ”
"Mama, the queen mother said it, and sent them to the palace gate in a soft sedan chair. There was such a big thing in the palace, and dozens of carriages had been parked outside. They should all be here to pick you up. The slave maid conveyed another sentence to the queen's mother, the secret of the five-year election is as much as you have heard before. What has happened these days, I hope you are rotten in your stomach. Don't talk too much and get your family in trouble. In fact, the palace maids don't say much, and the young ladies who participated in the election don't dare to go back and talk nonsense. Needless to say, those who were eliminated were disgraced to them. The rankings that have not been eliminated have not yet been determined, let alone said. The five-year election was like a deterrent, and through these young ladies shocked those families. Only loyalty to the court is the foundation for the continued prosperity of the family.
There is a new understanding of the five-year general election. When the ladies were sent to the palace gate, they saw a long queue of carriages outside the palace gate. The palace gates closed, and a call rang out outside the restricted area. The father and mother call the daughter, and the maid calls the young lady. There was another small commotion.
Bai Yang and Bai Wan'er supported Bai Huan and also saw the carriage of the White Palace. Concubine Bai Ping and a few maids and women are waving to this side.
"Sister, let's go home with my sister. Who dares to underestimate your sister will never agree. My sister has a big yard by herself, and it is also convenient for my sister to detoxify Bai Huan'er. Bai Wan'er said very expectantly.
"Bai Wan'er, thank you. I once swore that I would never set foot in the Bai family in this life and this life. Cousin, I heard that you have set up your own door, you can take Huan'er in. Bai Huan'er also looked at Poplar and said. At this moment, a very ordinary carriage rushed left and right and came to Poplar.
"Miss Dongjia, you better go back to the shop and have a look first." Shiraishi, who was driving the car, said with a wink.
"Something happened in the shop?" Poplar asked.
"Miss Dongjia, the customers who often come to buy snacks, heard that you won the first place in the general election, and they all gathered in the shop and refused to leave. If the hostess's lady doesn't go over and show her face. There's no way we're going to close. Shiraishi said smartly.
"First, the rankings haven't been announced yet, how do you know?"
"Miss Dongjia, word has spread on the street, you have passed all the way and finally defeated the palace guards. Miss Host, you better go back to the shop and have a look. ”
"What kind of shop to go back, she should go back to the White Palace." At this time, Concubine Bai Ping finally squeezed through the crowd and cut off Bai Shi's words.
"Mother, why are you here in person? The shop is the foundation of her daughter's life, and it is not the same to return home early and late. Sister Wan'er, you and your mother should go back to Baifu first. I also told my dad that I would take my brother and brother back before the final election. After Bai Yang finished speaking, he helped Bai Huan'er and got into the carriage of the shop, but found a man covered in blood lying in the carriage.
Bai Yang and Bai Huan'er were both shocked, what happened to this person? The two men glanced at each other and quickly tightened the curtain of the carriage. Shiraishi also drove the carriage to overtake the luxurious carriages, and when he came to the streets of the forbidden area, there were no more carriages in front of him.
This kung fu poplar also gave the man covered in blood a preliminary examination of the wound. He had been hit by at least five arrows, and although none of them were fatal, if he bled like this, he would not be far from death.
"Baihuan, look outside for me, I'll stop the bleeding for him first." Poplar commanded. In fact, Bai Shi had already given Bai Yang the wind when he drove outside, she just didn't want Bai Huan to see her trick from her sleeve.
"The carriages were lined up for inspection." Suddenly, I remembered the voice of the guard.
"Brother Guard, we are the carriage of Ganfu, and we are here to pick up my young lady back. Also checked? ”
"What's the matter? The assassin who assassinated the palace guards has not yet been caught. Who knows if it will be hidden in one of your carriages. Horse-drawn carriages in any province must be inspected. Get off the bus! ”
The sound of the guards inspecting the carriage was heard in front, mixed with the screams of the maids. You can see how violent the guards who checked the carriage were.
"Miss Dongjia, there are still 4 carriages ahead of us, and it will be our turn." Shiraishi reminded the carriage.
"Baihuan, he has already dealt with it, and now he can only wronged you." Now Poplar has no good way, so he can only act at the opportunity.
"Cousin, do you want me to lie in the car? The sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes are not so particular, he is the chivalrous man who assassinated the poison guards. Baihuan saw that Poplar completely covered the man with silk, and he understood Poplar's intentions. Said willingly.
"Miss Bai, you saved my life again. If my son leaves now, it will definitely not affect you. The wounded man came to his senses and said when he saw Poplar.
"It's you. You shot the arrows in the palace, and you are also a cat with nine lives. ”
"Miss Bai, my son just wants to take a good look at what is so bad about the five-year election of Dayan Kingdom? But he discovered the big secret, and one shot an arrow without controlling it. I didn't expect that there were a few masters in this Great Yan Kingdom, and my son accidentally capsized the boat. ”
"Miss Dongjia, there are only two carriages ahead." Shiraishi reminded again.
"Chivalry, cousin, this is not the time to chatter. Childe, you should be wronged, Miss Ben is also poisoned and weak. I can only really hold you down. Bai Huan said as he pulled the other strand and covered himself tightly, exposing only one head outside. The injured son was separated by a silk quilt. The two men lay down on the side of the carriage.
"Stop and be checked. Where did the raged carriage come in? The people in the carriage get down! The inspecting guard yelled outside.
"How do you speak, do carriages also need waist plates?" Poplar lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at a few fierce guards outside and asked.
"White, it's Miss Bai. We were just doing our business, and the guard you were trying to do was killed by an arrow. The Assassins have not been caught yet. There is an order that none of the cars and people passing through the streets of the restricted area will be let go of the inspection. Please don't embarrass us errand boys, Miss Bai.
"Oh, see, that squire died a miserable death. All the internal organs were corroded by poison and turned into soup and water. I heard that he was the most powerful poison master in the palace. In the end, he died on the poison, which can be regarded as a fallen leaf and returned to his roots. Poplar said sarcastically, and the man also stepped out of the carriage and lifted the curtain of the carriage.
"Why don't the people lying inside come down?"
"She can't get down, she was poisoned in the palace and now she can't stand up. Fortunately, Miss Ben carried the antidote with her, which saved her life temporarily. I don't know if I can save it. Or a few big brothers got in the car and carried her down. ”
"What does it smell like?" One of the guards asked.
"What else do you ask, Miss Ben was originally a senior apprentice in front of the old man Qingshan, and she wanted to serve the court with her kung fu. Unexpectedly, he was poisoned before the five-year election ended. If Miss Ben is alive, she will definitely show my master and ask the court for an explanation. Miss Ben just can't stand up now, otherwise I will kill one to relieve the hatred in my heart. Bai Huan reluctantly raised his head and complained to the guards outside the car.
"Bai, Miss Bai, you won the first place in the competition, but this carriage is really shabby. There really wasn't an assassin hiding in the car. ”
"Didn't you see that? There was only one lady in my car who was the apprentice of the old man Aoyama and happened to be my cousin of Poplar. Miss Ben is trying to go back to help her cousin detoxify, so that she can make friends with the famous old man in Qingshan. Check it out and we're in a hurry. Bai Xiang was really anxious. For she saw in the distance a few more guards running on horseback. I am afraid of long nights and dreams, and it is difficult to get out.
"Let's go, next carriage." One of the guards waved his hand and said, squeezing his eyes at Poplar. Poplar didn't have time to analyze the meaning of this, and the most important thing was to get out of here now. Shiraishi also waved the horsewhip smartly, and ran away with the carriage. Instead of getting into the carriage this time, Poplar jumped on the wheel and sat with Shiraishi.
"Miss Dongjia, shall we go to the shop or go back to your house?"
