Chapter 72 Encountering an Assassin on the Way to Linzhou
After realizing its miraculous effects, the masters of each family hurriedly sent their servants to inquire about the origin of the medicinal food shop. After a thorough investigation, they learned that it was actually a new shop that opened today!
Some servants didn't care about the difference between the new store and the old store and ran to buy a large bottle of medicinal wine. Those who hesitated for a while and were a step slower were told that the medicinal wine with the same effect had been sold out. If they wanted to buy it, they had to make a reservation first and could only pick it up two months later.
Neither intimidation nor inducement was of any use, and in the end they had no choice but to grit their teeth and pay the deposit, then return dejectedly to be scolded by their own master to vent their hatred.
As a result, the medicinal food shop became completely famous in Lingao County. It became a household name through word of mouth, and masters from various families came to inquire about it, wanting to take a peek at how this magical medicinal wine was brewed.
------------------------------------------------
On the official road from Lingao County to Linzhou City
A group of people and horses galloped at full speed. They were in a hurry to get on the road and had no time to appreciate the surrounding scenery. Even when they came across a teahouse on the way, they had no intention of stopping to rest. They only wanted to reach the imperial city as soon as possible.
"Mr. Gu, Mr. Shen, we have been galloping for a long time since early morning. Should we find a place to rest for a while?" Lin Qiuer asked while riding her horse.
At first, she thought riding a horse was fun, but gradually, both sides of her thighs began to feel numb, and then the pain came back. She couldn't help but frown, feeling a little tired.
When Shen Xiangming heard Lin Qiuer's shout, he turned around and found that Lin Qiuer and the people from Nalan Village were already five or six horses behind them.
He sighed and had to give up his original plan. "There is a teahouse about 300 meters ahead. Let's stop there and rest for a while."
"This is Miss Qiu'er's first time riding a horse. It's too tiring for her to follow us on the journey like this. Lord Shen, let's take a rest every two hours for the rest of the journey." Gu Anqing saw that Lin Qiu'er was feeling uncomfortable, so he said to Shen Xiangming.
"Rest every two hours?" Before Shen Xiangming could say anything, Ye Anlan was already shouting, "Are you still traveling like this? You are here to travel, right? We are all from the Inspection Office, and every time we travel, we wait until the horses are tired before we stop to rest."
Lin Nanyue didn't like the way Ye Anlan yelled at Xiaomei. He thought he could compare with Xiaomei? Xiaomei was a girl.
"You're not going to die, so why are you in such a hurry?"
"How can you curse? Can you have some manners?"
Liuzi has a good relationship with Ye Anlan, and ever since he joined the Censorate, Liuzi has always been working with Ye Anlan. When he heard Lin Nanyue's harsh words, he began to criticize her.
"We brothers and sisters are somewhat well-mannered, but not much. What's the matter? Do you want to fight?" Lin Qiu'er was of course unhappy to be despised by others. What's more, when her fourth brother spoke up to defend her and was scolded as unmannered, she became even angrier.
Gu Anqing naturally stood on the side of Lin Qiu'er and her two siblings, and spoke up to defend them, "Fighting is not a good idea. But if you want to fight, it's not impossible."
Shen Xiangming looked at the two incompatible people, his temples buzzing, "It's just a small matter, can't we discuss it when we take a rest in the teahouse in front?" After saying that, he glared at Ye Anlan.
When Shen Xiangming spoke, the people in the Censorate naturally did not dare to disobey, but Lin Qiuer had no such concerns.
"After you recruit people to the Censorate, don't you teach them the ways of the world? It's easy for them to be beaten outside. Or do you intend to be beaten? Do you want me to do it for you?" After Lin Qiu'er finished speaking, she gave Shen Xiangming a kind smile.
Ye Anlan, Liuzi and other people from the Censorate had witnessed Lin Qiuer's heroic feat of killing a man with a single punch in the Nalan Mountains, so they shuddered when they heard the word "beat".
They noticed that there was indeed anger flashing in Lin Qiuer's eyes, and she seemed to really want to beat herself to death.
"People from the Censorate, unless they are superiors, outsiders cannot attack them at will." Shen Xiangming explained that he was not angry because of Ye Anlan's impulsiveness, but wanted to take the opportunity to win over Lin Qiuer, "If you join the Censorate, you can beat them up if you want."
Ye Anlan and Liuzi looked at each other. They didn’t expect that their leader would “sell out” them so directly.
“You…” Lin Qiu’er was about to refute something, but suddenly her eyes fixed and she looked into the distance with a cold light flashing. She immediately warned loudly, “Scatter quickly, there is an assassin!”
Before he finished speaking, the cold light had already flown closer.
Gu Anqing and Lin Nanyue were on both sides of Lin Qiuer. When they heard that there was an assassin, they immediately flew over to protect her.
However, Lin Qiuer did not wait for rescue as they wished.
She first swung the long knife in her hand to knock away the flying knife, then exerted force on her hand to bring the long knife back with the knife chain. Then she jumped up and landed lightly on the horse's back, looking up and quickly scanning the number and distribution of the assassins in front of her.
"Six people on the left and seven on the right. I'll go to the left." She said decisively, and then flew to the left.
As soon as she moved, Lin Nanye, Lin Nanyue, Gu Anqing, Chang Qing and others rushed to the left without any pause, and the Gu family guards followed closely behind.
Shen Xiangming stayed where he was, guarding the account books and witnesses on horseback. The mute and the monkey stood back to back behind him, forming a barrier.
Ye Anlan, Liuzi and others flew to the right without waiting for Shen Xiangming's instructions.
For a moment, there were sounds of clashing blades, chasing, and screaming.
Compared with the fierce battle on the right, when Lin Qiuer rushed to the left, she knew that the third and fourth brothers would definitely follow. She did not stop, and made a gesture of outflanking with both hands.
The two brothers Lin Nanye and Lin Nanyue were in sync with each other and separated tacitly, turning to both sides to encircle the enemy.
Gu Anqing followed Lin Qiu'er in front of him. He noticed her gesture and understood immediately. The three siblings separated, and Lin Qiu'er rushed towards the assassin like a flash of lightning.
Gu Anqing was not to be outdone and quickly issued an order using the Gu Family Army's gestures. With a wave of his hand, the guards behind him quickly took action. The others were divided into two teams of two, following behind Lin Nanye and Lin Nanyue and quickly outflanking them.
Gu Anqing continued to follow Lin Qiuer's steps without hesitation, watching Lin Qiuer's heroic feat of killing one person with one knife.
