Chapter 79: Assassination
After getting off the boat, Rong Zhi saw that Li Sheng's face was as usual, and the little doubt that he had originally pressed down surfaced.
However, when he saw the plate of intact green plum candied fruit, he already understood why Li Shengxun was still pale, but he did not have a rash, but he still couldn't help but ask more, "In order to have a medicinal effect, more coptis was added to the medicinal soup, which was very bitter, so someone prepared candied fruit for the lady, why didn't the lady use it?" β
Li Shengxing listened to Rong Zhi's words of concern, but in her heart she thought about how to beat people, she smiled softly, "The concubine can't eat green plums since she was a child, and every time she eats it, she will feel unwell and have a rash on her face, so she hasn't taken it." β
Rong Zhi pretended not to know, "Is that so?" Fortunately, the lady has not eaten it, otherwise there will be three long and two short, and Rong will have trouble sleeping. However, the lady can't use green plum preserves, and she should also call someone out to say that it's right to change the plate. β
Li Shengxing shook his head, "Lang Jun sent someone to boil medicine for his concubine, which is already a nuisance, how can he trouble again?" It's just a little bitter, and there's nothing you can't drink. β
"The lady is too polite." Rong Zhi sighed, relieved, and had mixed feelings in his heart.
Because Li Shengxi's car driver and groom were on the other side, Rong Zhi took on the important task of sending Li Shengzheng home.
Because there is a difference between men and women, and there is only one carriage, Rongzhi sits outside again and serves as a coachman.
Although Li Shengxi was not seasick, she was not much better after being tossed by Rong Zhi, and finally got off the boat, she didn't want to say anything, and closed her eyes in the carriage to recuperate.
It's just that God doesn't seem to want her to be at peace.
Rong Zhi is about to have lunch with Li Sheng, so tossed down, when he returned to Qingquan Villa, it was already close to evening, and it happened to rain again at this time, and the sky darkened little by little.
Li Shengzheng is vigilant, the enemy helps her pull the car, she can't sleep no matter what, although she is in the car, but the movement of the body is clear. So, when the car stopped, she felt it almost instantly.
"What's wrong? Rong Langjun? Li Shengxing asked suspiciously, just about to open the car door, but was stopped by the person outside the door, she couldn't push the car door.
"Don't come out." Rong Zhi looked at the people in the rain with gloomy faces, they were dressed as ordinary mountain people, holding various swords and soldiers in their hands, and their eyes were gloomy and sharp. At first glance, it looks like a bandit, but Rong Zhi vaguely feels that it won't be so simple.
Li Shengxun and Liujin, who were sitting in the carriage, glanced at each other, both puzzled.
Li Shengxi cautiously lifted a corner of the car curtain, and met a pair of fierce eyes.
It's for her.
The moment he saw those eyes, this thought popped up in Li Shengxi's heart.
Those eyes flashed with murderous intent and fierce light, not only for her, but also for her.
Li Shengxian lowered the curtain and asked in a hurry, "What's the situation?" β
"There's a thief out there." Li Sheng's voice was worried, as if she was extremely scared, but her expression was extremely calm, she touched the ring in her hand, and silently spit out the word "kill".
Rujin frowned.
"Temptation?" She asked in a low voice.
Li Shengxing shook his head, this is not in line with Rong Zhi's style.
Rong Zhi is a person who is unwilling to hurt the innocent, and he will not easily kill until her identity is confirmed.
Rong Zhi outside the car didn't know what the two of them were planning, he saw that the comer was not good, and he had already found a short dagger in his sleeve, but he put his hand behind his back, so no one knew.
He smiled and looked at the group of people in front of him, "What is the matter with you?" β
The group of people didn't tolerate nonsense, and killed directly towards the carriage. Rong Zhi's eyebrows froze, and he hurriedly took out a short dagger and fought with the comer.
In all fairness, Rongzhi's martial arts are extremely high, and it is not difficult to deal with these people, but that group of people is not weak, and their goal is not Rongzhi. In other words, not only Rongzhi, but also the carriage behind Rongzhi.
He has to take care of the carriage, and there is only one person, so it is inevitable that he will be a little lacking. Rong Zhi was glad for a while that because of today's temptation, Li Sheng's people were still on the other side of the Wanjiang River, otherwise, he would not be able to protect many people with his own strength.
The carriage shook violently, and from time to time a woman's exclamations were heard. But the two people in the carriage, who should have panicked, were calmer than the other.
Li Sheng dragged the wall of the carriage to death, and gently lifted a corner of the curtain of the carriage, staring carefully at the situation outside.
Every move of that group of people was a killing move, but it was not difficult to see that although they were ruthless in attacking Rong Zhi, their main purpose was to come for the carriage.
Li Shengxi pulled his ring from time to time to secretly help Rong Zhi.
However, Rong Zhi was restrained by the carriage, and Li Shengxi was also restrained by the carriage, and neither of them had any way to do their best, and for a while, it was still the group of "bandits" who had the upper hand.
In order to prevent the group of people from attacking Li Sheng in the carriage, Rong Zhi stood on the roof of the carriage after snatching a person's long knife. All of a sudden, the small carriage seemed to have turned into a ring, and Rong Zhi became the one who guarded it.
However, the group of bandits were no ordinary bandits, and when they saw that they could not move the carriage for a while, they stabbed the horses cruelly.
With a violent neigh, the horse lifted its hooves, and the whole carriage fell to the ground with a bang, Rong Zhi was startled and hurriedly jumped off the carriage.
And Li Shengxi and Liujin in the carriage also rolled out of the door.
Rong Zhi hurriedly abandoned the knife on the ground, pulled up the two of them left and right, he protected the person behind him, and was about to pick up the knife soldiers who fell to the ground, but he had already lost the opportunity, and the other party was sent with a knife head-on.
"Rong Langβ"
Li Shengzheng exclaimed, Rong Zhi hurriedly got up, but his arm was still slashed.
Rong Zhi looked at Li Shengxing, "I'll restrain them, and the two ladies will run quickly." β
Li Shengxing shook his head, but Liujin was a little incredulous.
"Let's go, the two of you staying here will only distract Rong." Although this is not a good thing to hear, it is true, and if he is alone, it will not be difficult to deal with them.
Li Shengxing was still hesitant, she looked at Liujin, Liujin understood, and immediately pulled Li Shengxing and ran.
This group of people was originally here for Li Sheng's attack, and how could they let Li Sheng's attack go as they wanted.
He hurriedly caught up, Rong Zhi blocked and picked up the knife at the same time, Li Shengxi didn't run two steps, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Rong Zhi covered in injuries.
He wielded a knife like a flower, but after killing two people, he was stabbed again. His body trembled, and he barely managed to stabilize his body with the sword on his side, but at this moment he was completely at a disadvantage.
The group of thieves left one or two to deal with Rong Zhi, and the rest of the people rushed towards Li Sheng.
Li Shengxun kept her eyes calm, flicked the ring in her hand, and after stunned Rong Zhi and the two people on Rong Zhi's side, she casually picked up a branch.
Now, it's time for her to strike.
