Chapter 042: Catch the Mouth
"You dare to bully my sister, what's wrong with me beating you?"
Chu Wulang originally planned to have a good talk with the third prince after returning to Beijing, but now that he had met, he didn't mind having a good talk with him early.
So when the third prince was holding his neck to find the field, he also began to be eager to try, Tao Yaoyao didn't want Chu Wulang to be jealous of the palace as soon as the third prince returned to Beijing, so he threatened the third prince, "If you don't leave, be careful what Miss Ben says in a fit of anger What shouldn't be said." β
"Tao Yaoyao, you dare."
The third prince threatened her.
Tao Yaoyao sneered, "I even gave up my life, what do the third prince think I don't dare?" She took two steps forward, looked at the third prince's somewhat mean face and said coldly, "I'm barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, but I don't know if the third prince dares to go out with me?" β
The third prince thinks she is crazy, he is her fiancΓ©, she offends him now, and she will wait for her to marry in the future to see how he cleans her up.
"Tao Yaoyao, you wait."
The third prince put down his cruel words, and then turned around and left.
Seeing this, Chu Wulang wanted to roll up his sleeves and beat people again, Tao Yaoyao grabbed him and asked happily, "It's not that you can come back at noon, why did you arrive several hours in advance?" β
Chu Wulang wrote a letter to Tao Yaoyao before he came back, and the letter said that he would come back about the day, but when Chu Jiajun was resting in the woods last night, he met a seriously ill old man, and in order to send him back to Beijing for treatment as soon as possible, he rushed back in advance.
"Fifth brother is so nice."
After Tao Yaoyao praised Chu Wulang, he began to ask about the old man's condition, and through his narration, Tao Yaoyao's face sank little by little.
"What's wrong?" After Chu Wulang sensed that something was wrong, he hurriedly asked, "But what did I say wrong?" β
"No, I just think the symptom you said is very similar to ...... Mercury poisoning. β
Mercury poisoning? It was the first time Chu Wulang had heard such symptoms, but he was more curious about when she would become a healer.
"When you write letters to me, you always mention the word injury, I was worried about you, so I looked for a book to read, but I didn't expect that I had some talent, so I learned quite well."
I see.
My sister is so nice to them.
"Fifth brother, you stretch out your hand, and I'll take your pulse."
Speaking of which, Tao Yaoyao saw the tired look on Chu Wulang's face, so she thought about conditioning his body, who knows a pulse, she blackened her face again.
Fifth brother poisoned?
Although the toxin is not yet obvious, she will definitely not make a mistake.
This is supposed to be a chronic poison, so there will be no symptoms at all, but once this poisoning occurs, the poisoned person will definitely die.
Who hated him so much that he was poisoned like this?
What about the rest of the Chu family, can they have the same symptoms?
Tao Yaoyao has watched a lot of costume TV series, and knows how much a general like the Chu family is afraid of His Majesty, and she can't care about what others do, but the Chu family is heartfelt and heartfelt to the original owner.
Moreover, the reason why she has lived so well for so many years is also because of the Chu family, once they have three longs and two shorts, she will definitely not be able to live the current day.
They were in a prosperous relationship, so she had to figure out her guesses as soon as possible.
"What's wrong?" Chu Wulang saw that she was slow to move, thinking that something had happened to her body, but he quickly coaxed her again, "Fifth brother has been as strong as a head horse since he was a child, and I will be fine if anyone has something." β
"If you don't believe me, I can give you a set of hoops right now."
In order to make her happy, Chu Wulang was about to go to boxing after speaking, Tao Yaoyao pulled his arm, poured him a cup of tea and handed it to him, "After driving for so long, hurry up and drink saliva, and then enter the palace." β
Chu Wulang should enter the palace immediately after returning to Beijing, and the news of his return has already been known to the third prince, if it is delayed by His Majesty again, I am afraid that it will be unnecessary trouble.
Chu Wulang also knew this truth, so after drinking tea, he left the Tao family with people.
After Tao Yaoyao watched him get on the horse, he immediately called Qiu Gui, "Help me go to Dingbei Wangfu to spread a word." β
Half an hour later, the Shangsi Teahouse
"My fifth brother was poisoned, did the prince already know?"
As soon as the king of Dingbei went to the army, he was in his grandfather's barracks, and then he made military exploits and had his own manpower, although he looked cold and unapproachable, but she could see that he was a cold-faced and warm-hearted person in the past few days.
At least those who are kind to him, he will not fall into the ground.
And it is impossible for her to go to the border to inquire about the affairs of the Chu family in person, he is her only clue.
Xie Lan didn't expect him to sense that something was wrong so quickly, but the stakes were high, and he didn't plan to tell her right now, just in case.
"I don't know what you're talking about."
Xie Lan played with the teacup, and glanced at the crowded street, "Remind you, when you came over just now, there were quite a few tails behind you." β
Tail?
The people of the Three Princes.
Tao Yaoyao was too anxious about the affairs of the Chu family, but he forgot about the trouble of the third prince.
However, Xie Lan shouldn't want to involve their rights and wrongs, so ......
"Thank you, Lord Wang."
"Thank me for what?" Xie Lan was puzzled, and after thinking of something, the smile in his eyes deepened, "Do you think that this king has already helped you deal with these people?" β
Isn't it?
Tao Yaoyao followed his line of sight, and soon spotted a sneaky figure across the street, and the man swooped away as she looked over.
Damn it.
"The prince likes to watch the excitement so much? Don't forget, the third prince doesn't like me, and he doesn't like you either, in addition, I told the third prince before, there was another wave of people around me that day, and you said that if the third prince knew that the other wave of people was the prince......"
"You won't say that." Xie Lan said very firmly, "Besides, even if you say it, this king doesn't admit it, do you have any evidence?" β
"You ......" is cheeky.
She was willing to be for this man and would only have something to do with cold-blooded ruthlessness, but she didn't expect it to be related to brazenness.
Doesn't it mean that people like him don't bother to do such things?
He's an exception.
After returning home, she slept, this sleep can be described as dark, and when she woke up, the sky outside had begun to darken, Qiu Gui heard the movement and came in to serve her.
"If the young lady can't afford it anymore, the slaves and maids will have to go to the doctor."
Tao Yaoyao saw that she had slept almost all day, and she also felt that she was amazing.
After getting up, he sat at the table and drank porridge, and asked Chu Wulang by the way, "Has the fifth brother been back?" β
"Nope." Qiu Gui shook his head, "Why don't the slaves go out and inquire?" β
"No need." Tao Yaoyao glanced at the sky, and saw that the hour was almost up, she hurried up to finish eating and pulled Qiu Gui to continue to arrange the organs, and after everything was done, she reminded Qiu Gui, "Don't sleep in our yard tonight, go to the front yard, don't come over if you hear any movement in the second half of the night, remember to find someone to report to the official immediately." β
Qiu Gui was not at ease, "Miss, what should you do if the slave is gone?" Otherwise, go with the slave and the maid. β
Tao Yaoyao is going to be a bait, if she leaves, these people will not come.
Probably because she slept too much during the day, Tao Yaoyao couldn't fall asleep after lying down, but she didn't want to get up, so she simply stopped the mortuary in bed.
Suddenly, there was a terrible meow from the yard, and she sat up sharply, then her eyes widened.
Here it comes.
The killers who came tonight were not the same wave last night, so after these people came, they were once again entangled by the mechanism and the poison outside for a while, and when Xie Lan's people came out, the fight in the courtyard entered a climax.
Qiu Gui couldn't sleep at all, but she was afraid of ruining Tao Yaoyao's plan, so she hid outside and listened carefully to the movement here, and after a terrible cry came from the yard, she ran to the door to find the little maid as soon as possible.
Who knew that the little guy didn't open the door for her at all and said that she was talking nonsense, Qiu Gui was an extremely timid person on weekdays, but now Tao Yaoyao's life was in her hands, for the sake of her master, she took advantage of the little girl's inattention, took out the dagger that Tao Yaoyao gave her, and scared the guards.
"If you don't open the door again, I'll kill you."
The guards saw that she was serious, so she was reluctant to open the door, who came coincidentally, as soon as Qiu Gui went out, she saw the guards guarding the night, so she didn't want to rush forward, "Our family has been assassinated, please save my young lady." β
The captain of the Xicheng city guard personally led the team to Tao Ranju to arrest people, and it was also at this time that the guards were sure that the assassins in the house were really bad, so they ran to find Tao Shi'an as soon as possible.
In fact, Tao Shi'an knew about the movement in the house last night, but Tao Yaoyao didn't say anything, so he pretended to be stupid. I didn't expect to come back tonight.
Who did this dead girl offend?
so that the other party will not stop if she does not kill her.
"Help, sir."
Tao Yaoyao waited until the guards came, quickly opened the door, rushed behind the captain, and then pointed to the killer who had died most of the dead in the courtyard and shouted, "My lord, these people are really scary, fortunately you are here, otherwise, I am afraid that my life will be lost tonight." β
The Assassins were still thinking about how the other wave of people had left, but just when they thought they had finally seized the opportunity to kill Tao Yaoyao, the Lieutenant of Xicheng rushed in with his men.
Now they panicked.
"Catch the mouth."
Although these guards have average martial arts, they have a large number of people, the assassins were originally twenty, eleven had died before, and now there are only nine left, no matter how high their martial arts are, they are not the opponents of so many people, so they quickly fell behind.
The Lieutenant was not idle during this time, he first glanced around, then walked around the courtyard, and only walked back after all the Assassins had been caught.
"Who are you, why did you assassinate the eldest lady of the Tao family?"
The assassin glanced at the lieutenant and sneered, "Be nosy, look for death." With that, the Assassin bit his tongue and killed himself, and the others followed suit. But in an instant, these people were all dead.
Rao was Tao Yaoyao, who had already seen this kind of big scene last night, and was still taken aback when he saw this scene.
