Exiled 3,000 miles away? Don't worry, Madam has space.

Zhou Ping's face paused, and he bit his lip slightly. "We found out that it was the poison king Du Fengzi who was behind this. I heard that Du Fengzi only acts on his own accord and has no principles. I'm afraid this plague is the same."

"Really?" Xie Xu chuckled and said slowly, "It seems that County Magistrate Zhou has not yet investigated more."

Zhou Ping's pupils dilated, and he looked straight at Xie Xu: "Master Xie, if you have any news, please tell me. I will thank you for your kindness on behalf of the people of Hongcheng."

Xie Xu shook his head: "In fact, if County Magistrate Zhou sends someone to investigate, he will find that Crazy Du and Mr. Huang have a good relationship."

Now that Xie Xu mentioned this, Zhou Ping instantly understood what was going on.

No wonder Crazy Du bought the herbs so quickly, it turned out that it was Mr. Huang who was behind it.

Thinking of this, Zhou Ping became furious and slapped the wooden table.

"How abominable! Mr. Huang doesn't care about the lives of the people of Hongcheng!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Shitou hurried back from outside and brought some bad news.

"Some people say that Mr. Huang got a prescription for curing the plague from a miracle doctor by chance. Now it's spreading like wildfire, and many people are running to the clinic and the Huang Mansion to ask for it."

Xie Xu, Dongfang Yu and Liu Yueshi looked at each other and realized that Crazy Du and Member Huang were out recruiting.

Zhou Ping was stunned for a moment, then he quickly thought of the reason and gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, am I just going to sit here and wait for death?"

"No." Xie Xu shook his head and said calmly, "Let the people from Mingyue Villa go to the Huang Mansion to 'buy' enough medicinal materials for seven days. When the time comes, it will be fine as long as County Magistrate Zhou doesn't pursue it."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ping paused for a moment, then understood what Xie Xu meant. He looked determined, as if he was ready to give it his all: "Okay, let's do as Master Xie says!"

night.

Four figures appeared outside the Huang Mansion, namely Dongfang Yu, Liu Yueshi, Bai Yuer and Ye Qinglin.

The four of them were wearing night clothes and had a very clear division of labor. Dongfang Yu was responsible for diverting the attention of the Huang family's thugs and Du Fengzi, while Bai Yuer and Ye Qinglin were responsible for buying the medicinal herbs that Huang Yuanwai had deliberately hoarded.

"Dongfang Yu and I will go and lure away the people from the Huang Mansion, while Bai Yu'er and Sister Lin will go buy herbs." Liu Yueshi took out a map and said, "This is where I asked someone to find out where the herbs are stored in the Huang Mansion. But you guys should be careful, because I'm afraid that Crazy Du is cheating and deliberately letting me get the map."

Liu Yueshi knew Crazy Du's temperament and thought this was possible. Ye Qinglin and the others nodded in agreement and said they would be more careful.

Afterwards, Liu Yueshi and Dongfang Yu took action, while Bai Yuer and Ye Qinglin listened to the noise inside outside the wall.

Seeing that the noise here was getting smaller and smaller, Bai Yuer knew it was time to take action.

"Sister-in-law, I'll take you in."

As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Yuer put her arm around Ye Qinglin's slender waist, lightly stepped on the tiptoes, and the two of them crossed the wall and entered the Huang Mansion.

After taking a look at the map in her hand, Ye Qinglin pointed to the location on the left. The two of them bent over and walked over quietly.

Just as they were about to reach the warehouse where the medicinal herbs were stored, a figure suddenly appeared and blocked their way.

Seeing the old man in gray, Ye Qinglin's eyes lit up and she called out softly, "Uncle."

When the old man in gray heard the voice, his hazy eyes froze and he stared at Ye Qinglin with a complicated look.

"Don't go over there, there's an ambush inside, and the herbs you want are not here."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qinglin and Bai Yuer looked at each other and said at the same time: "Then do you know where it is?"

The old man in gray did not answer, but turned and walked to the side. Ye Qinglin and Bai Yuer thought about it and hurriedly followed him.

After turning left and right at the Huang Mansion, the old man in gray finally stopped.

Seeing the woodshed in front of her, Bai Yuer's eyes widened and she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Mr. Huang is amazing! Who would have thought that he would hide the herbs here?"

Ye Qinglin nodded slightly, agreeing with Bai Yuer's statement.

"Hurry up and go in." The old man in gray looked at Ye Qinglin with stern eyes and urged.

Ye Qinglin nodded, pushed open the door of the woodshed and walked in. Bai Yuer wanted to go in, but was stopped by the old man in gray: "You stay outside."

Bai Yuer opened her mouth to refute, but then she thought of something, pursed her lips and said nothing, and stood guard at the door with the old man in gray.

As soon as Ye Qinglin entered, she was stunned to see the woodshed piled high with medicinal herbs. They were all the herbs used in the prescriptions.

She waved her hand, put all the herbs into the space, and then put down the fifty taels of silver that Zhou Ping gave her.

The prescription that Ye Qinglin took out used some cheap medicinal materials, so the money for a prescription was not much, so everyone estimated that it would cost about fifty taels.

"Uncle, Yu'er, I have 'bought' the herbs." Ye Qinglin opened the door and said to the two people outside.

Hearing the voice, the old man in gray looked at Ye Qinglin deeply, then turned around and walked away quickly.

Ye Qinglin pursed her lips and sighed helplessly.

Bai Yuer frowned and blurted out, "This old man is quite strange."

"Maybe he still can't let go of what happened in the past." Ye Qinglin pursed her lips and watched the figure of the gray-clothed old man disappear into the darkness, and immediately returned to the topic: "Okay, let's go quickly."

Bai Yuer nodded slightly, and used her lightness skills to take Ye Qinglin away.

The two did not wait for Dongfang Yu and Liu Yueshi. They had agreed beforehand that they would "buy" the herbs and leave immediately back to the inn.

At this time, in Xie Xu's room, Chen and others looked at the closed door with worried expressions.

After a while, there was a knock on the door, followed by a familiar and crisp voice.

"Mother, Third Sister-in-law, Xie Xu, Yu'er and I are back."

Upon hearing this, Chen and the others felt relieved. Xie Ling reacted the fastest and went to open the door immediately.

Seeing that Ye Qinglin and Bai Yuer were safe and sound, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and asked a few questions about what happened.

Seeing that Xie Xu's eyes never left Ye Qinglin, Chen and others knew that the couple had something to talk about in private, so they quickly went out.

Seeing Xie Xu sitting quietly on the bed, staring at her without saying a word, Ye Qinglin quickly stepped forward and smiled sweetly at him: "I'm fine now, right? Besides, I'm not the unarmed Ye Qinglin before. I'm a strong man now!"

As she spoke, Ye Qinglin deliberately showed her fist and tapped Xie Xu's forehead.

"Xie Xu, you don't have to worry so much."

Xie Xu sighed helplessly, and rubbed the back of Ye Qinglin's hand with his slender fingers: "How can I not worry? You are more than three months pregnant, and you sneaked into the Huang Mansion with your brothers. What if something goes wrong?

If you weren't the only one who could collect all the herbs without anyone noticing, I really wouldn't want you to take the risk."

When saying this, in addition to worry, Xie Xu felt more self-blame and guilt.

If he was able to do nothing, why would he let Ye Qinglin take the risk herself!

Knowing what Xie Xu was thinking, Ye Qinglin took off her shoes and sat next to Xie Xu, leaning on his shoulders, hugging his waist, and comforting him: "Xie Xu, you have to believe me, I am not a weak woman now, I can stand shoulder to shoulder with you!"

Ye Qinglin's voice was soft and her eyes were firm, which made Xie Xu immersed in it and also pulled him out of his negative emotions.
