After I disguised myself as a man, I became everyone's white moonlight

Who would have thought that once they entered the abandoned house, cooked the meal, and everyone ate, they suddenly discovered... there was something wrong with the food, and one after another, people were infected.

People who practice martial arts like Tang Yuhuai have better physical constitutions than Rong Jinfeng and others. They can hold on after eating a little, and it turns out they have a backup plan.

A team of dozens of men in black suddenly broke in. They were skilled in swordsmanship and killed anyone they saw in an attempt to take away all the herbs and food.

The scene was very chaotic at the time, and many of the officers and soldiers who were hit were killed before they had time to resist. Tang Yuhuai led his men to force back the men in black, but during the battle between the two sides, they still managed to steal four carts of medicinal materials.

Tang Yuhuai led his men to chase after them. He wanted to snatch the herbs back. He also instructed the imperial physician to go to Yunzhou City immediately after treating Rong Jinfeng and others.

As a result, no one expected that when the imperial physician was preparing the antidote for everyone, the bandits from Qingshan Peak broke in, arrested them all, stole their belongings, and tied them up and imprisoned them.

This situation was obviously designed in advance, waiting for the moment when they relax.

There were too many things to carry along the way, including food and medicinal herbs. Tang Yuhuai and Rong Jinfeng were worried about accidents on the road, so they were extremely careful. As expected, they encountered three assassination attempts.

Tang Yuhuai successfully repelled the first three assassination attempts, so although they were always on guard, they were not to the point of being paranoid.

The final attack, the combination of bandits and assassins, was something they had never expected.

Tang Yuhuai asked them to remove the muscle softening powder and set off at night, just in case.

But I didn't expect that they had a backup plan this time.

Rong Jinfeng sighed, "Now that I think about it, the previous few times were just performances for us. This last time is the highlight of their plan!"

Yu Huaxuan and the other three people standing nearby also lowered their heads in shame. They had been careful all the way, but still fell into the trap. It would be embarrassing to tell others about this.

Chu Xi's attention was on Rong Jinfeng's other question, "You said that the people who attacked you were a group of men in black, all holding swords, with superb swordsmanship?"

Rong Jinfeng nodded, "Those people are well-trained, they look like death warriors, but they don't seem to be completely like that."

This description quickly reminded Chu Xi of the time he was assassinated. Could it be that it was the Nalan family who assassinated Rong Jinfeng and his group this time?

"This group of people made such an elaborate plan just to force you to flee in panic and not care about other things, so that the bandits from Qingshan Peak can appear." Chu Xi raised his eyebrows.

Now we can figure out that the Nalan clan and the bandits must have colluded in advance. Why would the bandits take such a risk? Could they also be the Seventh Prince's men?

Rong Jinfeng suddenly remembered this important matter, "Oh right, everything happened too suddenly last night. After we were kidnapped, the Ninth Princess was also discovered by them. I wonder where those bandits took the princess?"

Chu Xi's eyelids jumped and he almost forgot about this matter.

"Why did you let her come along?"

Rong Jinfeng silently glanced at the young man squatting on the other side of the fence. The young man only had two pieces of clothes left, and the rough clothes that the bandit threw to him was put aside by him.

With his picturesque eyebrows and handsome face, everyone who sees him can't help but praise him as a handsome man.

Chu Xi received Rong Jinfeng's gaze and suddenly remembered what Zhou Yichen said a few days ago...

She probably understood why Rong Jinfeng looked at her when he heard her question. The look in his eyes clearly told her that the Ninth Princess came for you.

Headache.

This princess is really bold. A woman with fine clothes and delicious food dares to sneak into such a team.

Although Rong Jinfeng guessed what Princess Liangfenjiu was thinking, he kept his mouth shut. He would never talk about anything concerning a woman's reputation.

Even though the Ninth Princess was of noble status, there was no guarantee that others would not leak the matter if they heard it.

"The most important thing now is the safety of Her Royal Highness the Princess. This group of bandits kills and robs people, and even doesn't care about the imperial court. I'm afraid that if the princess falls into their hands..." Rong Jinfeng hesitated to speak.

Even though he didn't finish the rest of the words, Chu Xi could understand the meaning.

She didn't know what the bottom line of the bandits was. She only knew that in troubled times, women were the most vulnerable. In wars, women would be taken as spoils of war and not cherished...

Although these bandits are also from the Great Zhou, it is best not to hold too high hopes for their humanity. These people don't even take the imperial court seriously, so how could they let go of a delicate and beautiful woman?

"Do you know any other news about the princess?"

Upon hearing this, an imperial physician who had almost no presence said weakly, "I was tied up at the back last night, and I heard someone say... that they wanted to give the princess to the boss!"

Rong Jinfeng's expression changed slightly.

Lord Yu and the other two were also quite frightened. This was the Ninth Princess, and His Majesty was usually quite fond of her.

If something really happened, they would not let them off easily...

Rong Jinfeng didn't like this kind of thing. He received a gentleman's education, and such behavior was really shameful.

It would have been fine if he had plotted against them, but he even spared no effort towards weak women, bullying and occupying them. This greatly touched his bottom line.

Rong Jinfeng looked at Chu Xi. He was the best martial artist here and the only one who could move.

"Qibai, can you think of a way..."

Chu Xi squatted on the ground, raised his hand to stop him from continuing, and turned his head with a gloomy look in the direction of the bend.

"Someone is coming." she said suddenly.

After saying that, she quickly sat down on the bed, picked up the straw beside her and folded it silently, as if she was in a trance, doing nothing to kill time.

It was as if the person who had spoken to Rong Jinfeng before was not her.

There are not many people with truly great martial arts skills in the mountain stronghold, and only the boss needs Chu Xi to be on guard against him. The others are at best pawns.

This was why she could fearlessly talk directly to Rong Jinfeng and the others about the kidnapping.

But this person was different. He walked lightly and had some martial arts skills.

For this reason, when the other party was ten meters away from the cell, Chu Xi interrupted Rong Jinfeng and others without saying a word and distanced herself from them.

Her current persona is that of a rich... but not stupid, flexible, and fearful young man. She cannot let them find out that she knows Rong Jinfeng and the others.

With Chu Xi's reminder, Rong Jinfeng and the others were half dead, some lying on the ground, and some leaning against the wall.

This was what the Third In Command saw when he came in. He glanced at them without surprise and paid no more attention to them. It seemed that in his eyes, these court officials were not as good as a rich young man.

"Come out." The third in command opened the lock of Chu Xi's cell.

Chu Xi threw down the straw in his hand and said, "This cell of yours really smells bad, and the lighting is not good. Can you give me a better place to stay?"

She started bargaining again and pushed further.
