The Regent Princess has run away again

When they arrived at the clothing store, Bai Nuolan was experienced enough that even though he was very interested, he did not show it obviously.

"How do you wear this? It looks great," Kanan pointed to the ready-made clothes hanging on the side, her face showing uncontrollable excitement.

"That's a skirt. Miss Kankan, would you like to try it?"

"Is it really possible?"

Xue Zhiyu smiled and nodded, then walked in and asked the shopkeeper beside her, "Can you bring me that skirt?"

The owner of this store is a middle-aged woman in her forties, and you can tell at first glance that she is a shrewd businesswoman.

"Of course, no problem. The fitting room is on the second floor. I'll have someone take this lady up there."

"sorry to bother you."

Kanan took the skirt handed to her by a woman next to her, subconsciously glanced at Bai Nuolan, and when she saw the other party nod, she followed her upstairs.

Xue Zhiyu couldn't help but joked, "Miss Bai, I think Miss Qianqian and you have a very good relationship."

Bai Nuolan glanced at the second floor and shook his head, "I'm sorry to make you laugh, Princess. This is her first time in Yan Country and her manners may be a little lacking. I hope you don't mind."

"How could that be? Miss Xianxian has a very likable personality. I really want to go to the Western Regions. Why don't you tell me about it, Miss Bai?"

Xue Zhiyu was really curious about what the Western Regions were like in this era. Was it any different from what she had learned in history books?

Bai Nuolan pursed her lips, hesitated for a while, and then opened her red lips and said, "The strength of the Western Region is not as strong as that of Yan Country. It mainly has goods exchanges with Yan Country. And do you know the Mandragora Sect?"

Seeing Xue Zhiyu's puzzled expression, Bai Nuolan continued, "The Mandragora sect is now expanding. It was originally just a small sect in the Western Regions, but now everyone from the emperor to the common people believes in the Mandragora sect. The Mandragora sect can communicate with the gods of heaven and earth and has the ability to predict the future. But no one has ever seen the true face of the leader of the Mandragora sect. Some say it's a woman, while others say it's a man. In short, there have been various versions since its inception."

From Bai Nuolan's reverent tone, it could be heard that this sect must have a high status in the Western Regions. Xue Zhiyu frowned and had no impression of this Mandragora sect.

After changing her clothes, Xianxian ran down excitedly, looking left and right in front of the two people, "How about it? This skirt is very beautiful."

"As long as you like it, Miss Xianxian, this is a gift for you. I hope you can have fun in Yan Country."

Bai Nuolan, who had been keeping an eye on Xue Zhiyu, saw that she reacted calmly, and the suspicion in his heart disappeared. Although she looked very similar to that person, if it was that person, how could he not react when he heard about the Mandala Sect?

She didn't come to Yan Country just for the tour. Now Mandala is divided internally, and some people even want to embezzle the entire sect for their own use. She will not let Mandala fall into the hands of outsiders.

Qianqian didn't think too much about it. She walked forward and pulled Bai Nuolan, "Nuolan, change with me too. These clothes are much more interesting than ours."

"Yes, Miss Bai, you should also change your clothes," Xue Zhiyu also echoed a few words.

"Okay, I appreciate your kindness, my lady. If I come to the Western Regions in the future, I will definitely do my best to be a good host."

Bai Nuolan also felt that her clothes were indeed a little different. She glanced at all the clothes and pointed at the dark green winding white plum cicada wing gauze that was placed in the most conspicuous place. The shopkeeper next to her hurriedly took the clothes over, and the two of them went upstairs to change.

Soon, Bai Nuolan came down, and for a moment she astonished the woman who was originally choosing other clothes. Her eyes, as lazy as a Persian cat, were now extremely cold. She stood on the stairs and looked down at the people below without any emotion. The dark green Baimei cicada wing gauze added a bit of charm to her originally exotic appearance.

With every step, the bells on the ankles would collide with each other, making a crisp sound.

"A beautiful lady is a good match for a gentleman. What an exotic beauty."

A man in a khaki robe walked in, fanning himself. The guards behind him pushed aside the people who were watching as if they were protecting something precious.

The women who were originally choosing clothes turned their heads and covered their faces with their sleeves when they saw the man's face was as pale as paper.

The man in khaki clothes walked to the stairs, looked up at the woman upstairs, his eyes full of greed, "Beauty, are you willing to go back with me? I promise that you will never have to worry about food and clothing in this life."

Xue Zhiyu frowned. Isn't this Cai Wenfan, a distant relative of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue Cai Jinzhong? Moreover, he is a notorious bully in this area. He relies on his status to often rape women. He is simply a scum.

Bai Nuolan's cold eyes didn't even glance at Cai Wenfan, and he walked straight down, bypassing him and walking to Xue Zhiyu's side, "Princess, what do you think of this outfit?"

Xue Zhiyu was stunned for a moment, glanced at Cai Wenfan's face which had turned the color of pig liver, and almost couldn't help laughing, "Well, this one suits you very well."

Cai Wenfan felt embarrassed when he saw Bai Nuolan ignored him. Seeing Xue Zhiyu who was talking to her, he sneered, "Isn't this the famous princess some time ago? Why, your old lover can't satisfy you, so you come out to find a wild man? I heard that fifty taels of silver can let you spend the night with the princess. I don't think anyone would want to touch a slut even if they pay ten taels of silver."

Xiao Qiu, who was standing at the back, couldn't help it, so she walked up and pushed Cai Wenfan, "Why are you so foul-mouthed? No wonder no one dares to marry you. I'm afraid that ordinary girls would be more scared if they met you than if they saw a ghost."

"Oh, you little bitch, it's true that like master, like servant. Tear her mouth apart for me!" Cai Wenfan's face suddenly twisted and he spoke to the servant behind him.

Xue Zhiyu pulled Xiaoqiu behind her and calmly took out a silver needle and some medicine powder from her sleeve. "You knew I was a princess, but you were so rude. Not only did you not salute me, but you also slandered me. It seems that I have to teach you a lesson on behalf of the Minister of Revenue, otherwise the Great Yan Kingdom will lose face sooner or later."

As soon as he finished speaking, before he could see clearly, Xue Zhiyu took out a silver needle and stabbed several servants who were about to pounce on him. Before Cai Wenfan could react, a pill was stuffed into his mouth.

Cai Wenfan's eyes suddenly widened, and he held his throat, wanting to say something but no sound came out. He could only babble and gesture.

Originally, Xue Zhiyu wanted to do an experiment to see if these pills were really effective. Now, she had a test subject. It seemed that the one just now was a mute pill. She could just put a label on it when she got back.

The servants who wanted to pounce on him suddenly rolled on the ground because of the itch, scratching themselves all over. Their bodies began to turn red, but they were still unconscious.

"Don't worry, Mr. Cai. This is a new pill I made. I think your voice will be restored in a day or two. As for whether there will be any adverse reactions, I can't guarantee it. But if you dare to talk nonsense again, I can't guarantee that I will let you try other pills later."

Xue Zhiyu curled her lips, thought for a moment, and spoke slowly, as if it was just an insignificant conversation about today's weather.

Cai Wenfan was so scared that he kept waving his hands and glared at Xue Zhiyu unwillingly. He even ignored the servants on the ground and ran away with the one or two remaining ones.

Qianqian looked at Xue Zhiyu in admiration, "The princess is so powerful. What kind of pill was that just now? It's even more powerful than our wizards."

"It's just a simple pill."

After taking the two of them for another stroll, Bai Nuolan saw that it was almost time, so he said goodbye to Kankan and left.

Only Xiaoqiu and her servant were left. As the sun was setting, Xue Zhiyu remembered that she had an appointment. She didn't know what Qin Yuming wanted to discuss.

"Miss, where are you going later?" Xiaoqiu asked after hailing a carriage.

"Let's go to the Pharmacy."

"Okay lady."

.........

The carriage soon arrived at the Pharmacy. The two men got off the carriage and explained their purpose. The person at the door then took them to the Qingzhi Room where they had been last time to wait.

"Ms. Xue finally remembered Qin. Qin thought that Miss Xue had forgotten about this matter."

"Boss Qin, you're joking. I can forget anything but this. If it weren't for Boss Qin, it would be a question whether I could open this medicine shop in Chengdu." Xue Zhiyu chose a place to sit down, and when she looked up, she saw a beautiful guy like a demon walking in.

Qin Yuming changed his black robe into a royal blue brocade robe. His beautiful outline was still as handsome as ever, but he still looked heroic. His jet-black hair was tied up high, and an obsidian jade pendant hung from his belt. His eyes were as black and translucent as the jade pendant, and his depth was unfathomable.

"Your Highness, you are joking. This is just a small pharmacy. How can I not cooperate with your words?" Qin Yuming sat opposite her and picked up the teapot on the table to pour her a cup of tea.

Xue Zhiyu didn't want to beat around the bush with him anymore and got straight to the point, "I don't know if the boss wants to talk to me about something important?"

"It's not a big deal. I need you to do me a favor and go to a place where I can absolutely guarantee your personal safety."

"Where?"

"It's not convenient to tell you now. I hope the princess can leave it to Qin in a few days."

Xue Zhiyu put down the teacup and pushed it forward. "The boss really thinks highly of me. I wonder what conditions the boss has to say this?"

Qin Yuming looked at Xiaoqiu behind him. Xue Zhiyu understood and asked Xiaoqiu to go out first and close the door.

After the door was closed, Qin Yuming said, "As far as I know, the Imperial Concubine has asked you to take a dancer from the Western Regions with her. On the surface, it's just a normal shopping trip, but in fact, she is the Imperial Concubine's spy. I have a way to prevent the Imperial Concubine from obtaining any information about you."

This condition was indeed very tempting, but Xue Zhiyu did not agree immediately. Her intuition told her that Qin Yuming was in great danger, and if she wanted to save her life, she should stay away from him.

Qin Yuming had no intention of urging her and drank his tea leisurely.

After a mental struggle, Xue Zhiyu filtered what she wanted to say in her mind, and then said, "Okay, but you must ensure my personal safety, otherwise..."

"Of course, since Qin took her away, he will be brought back in one piece."

After the discussion, Xue Zhiyu didn't want to stay any longer, so she declined Qin Yuming's invitation and left Ji Pharmacy with Xiaoqiu.

Beitian, who was standing behind her, was still worried. After all, the next few days would be a critical time and there couldn't be any mistakes. How could the boss choose her?

"Boss, we have many people who know medicine and poison. What's so special about Princess Kangle?"

"I think the other side already knows about our people. It will be disadvantageous to us if we send them again. So I need a stranger to go with me."
