After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom
Chapter 258 12 After eating, I guarantee that even a sow can still look charming
"Don't disbelieve me, you will see the result in a few days."
Bai Yanlang straightened his back, grinned with a mouthful of white teeth, and his eyes were filled with complacency.
The prince personally tested...
Old Mrs. Qiao lowered her eyes and pondered.
A few days ago, the third brother sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that he might be transferred back to the capital to work next year, and also said that Prince Rong intended to join the prince.
If Bai Yaoyao really had that ability——
Old Mrs. Qiao's expression eased a little. She stood up and walked into the inner room, took out five silver bills with a face value of one hundred taels from her dressing table and walked in front of Bai Yanlang.
"I asked Youyou to extort six thousand taels from me last time, and I don't have much savings on hand, so you can take these and use them first."
Bai Yanlang took the banknote and left Songtao Garden with a smile on his face. Lu Qi also took advantage of the cover of night and quietly returned to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
Bai Youyou was still concentrating on modifying the design when the window creaked. She looked up and saw Lu Qi standing in front of her.
"What's the news?"
"Your ex-father is daydreaming about getting promoted and getting rich. Also, Bai Yaoyao asked the girl next to her, Bi Tao, to buy Chun Feng San on the black market. I don't know who she is targeting."
"Spring Breeze?"
"It's like men taking the medicine makes them want women, and women taking the medicine makes them want men."
Lu Qi explained without any emotion. Bai Youyou's mouth twitched when she heard it. "You don't need to explain it so bluntly. You are still a little girl."
Lu Qi rolled his eyes and said, "I don't know what your ex-father whispered to Old Mrs. Qiao. I can't find out. But your father also said something like the crown prince personally tested it, so Old Mrs. Qiao didn't need to doubt it."
The prince tested it himself? No doubt?
Bai Youyou frowned.
She was so shocked when she read the book that she basically just glanced over it and couldn't remember any of the specific details.
What exactly did Bai Yaoyao ask the prince to do?
After thinking for a long time, Bai Youyou couldn't remember anything. He rubbed his swollen temples and said, "Go and keep an eye on it. Come back and tell me if anything happens."
Lu Qi was a man of few words. By the time Bai Youyou finished speaking, he had already jumped out of the window.
The night wind blew in from the window, and the sky in the east slowly turned pale. Lu Chen did not return home until the sun rose in the cold dew.
The servant told him that Bai Youyou came to see him last night, so he changed his clothes and went to Bai Youyou's yard.
"Did you come to see me yesterday for something?"
Bai Youyou yawned with confused eyes, "Lu Qi got some information yesterday, and I was going to tell you. If you weren't there, I would have gone to Jingzhao Yin to tell Uncle Xu."
"Is it about a missing child case?"
Lu Chen lifted up his robe and sat on the chair. Lu came in with breakfast, and when she saw him, she hurriedly asked Cuizhu to prepare more bowls and chopsticks.
"Ah."
Bai Youyou picked up the porridge on the table and took a sip before saying, "Lu Qi found out yesterday that my ex-father had sent people to the North City to look for Pai Huazi a few days ago. I think it must be related to this matter."
"What tricks is he planning to come up with?"
Mrs. Lu didn't hear the key point in Bai Youyou's words, but Lu Chen did, "Are you saying that before this case happened, he sent people to investigate in North City?"
"Yeah." Bai Youyou nodded. "Lu Qi also found out yesterday that Bai Yaoyao ordered people to buy Chunfeng Powder on the black market. I don't know who she is planning to harm. It just so happens that I have nothing to do today, so I will go to the black market to take a look."
"Be careful when you go to the black market. It's very chaotic there."
Mrs. Lu was worried about a little girl like her going to a place where all kinds of people gather, so she told her, "Lu Qi is not with you, so take a guard with you when you go out."
"Don't worry, aunt. I'll go with Youyou later."
Bai Youyou and Lu Chen quickly ate a few mouthfuls of food and hurried out of the house.
The black market in North City is still as bustling as before.
The long street was lined with stalls of all kinds on both sides, with all kinds of dazzling items placed on the ground.
The sounds of hawking and talking are endless.
"Seventh cousin, do you know where to buy Chunfengsan on the black market?"
"I know, I'll take you there."
Lu Chen turned around and led her towards a small alley on the side.
The ground was covered with black, smelly mud and a disgusting odor of urine.
Bai Youyou covered her nose with her sleeves and followed Lu Chen through the long alley. After twists and turns, it took nearly half an hour to finally arrive at a dilapidated house that looked shabby.
In the yard, a thin old man was sweeping the excess grass on the ground with a broom. When he saw them, he showed his yellow teeth.
"My two friends, do you have sows at home that need to be paired?"
Sow pairing?
Bai Youyou wanted to laugh, but she suppressed her laughter and asked, "Do you have Spring Breeze Powder?"
The old man narrowed his eyes and smiled brightly, "What Chunfengsan? I only sell medicine for sow mating."
Lu Chen squinted at him and said, "Stop pretending. We were introduced by Liu Laosan."
After being introduced by an acquaintance, the old man quickly put down the broom in his hand, his face full of wrinkles, "Sir, how many pounds are you going to order? Don't worry about my medicine. Take one or two, and I guarantee that you will still look charming even when you look at a sow."
Lu Chen was afraid that he would say something dirty, so he said coldly: "A small bag will do."
"Haha, wait, I'll go get you some medicine."
The old man dragged his crippled leg into the house, and after a while, he came out with a small yellow paper bag.
"Five taels of silver, cash on one hand and goods on the other, no credit!"
Bai Youyou took out a piece of silver from the white purse at her waist and put it in his palm. The old man happily handed the paper bag to her.
"First time is better than second time. Next time you buy medicine, come to me and I'll give you a discount."
Lu Chen frowned, took Bai Youyou's hand, turned around and walked to the other side.
The old man stood there, looking at their backs, weighing the silver in his hand.
After selling two packs of Chunfengsan in a row in one day, he pouted and tutted twice, dragging out his tone: "Spring is here, everything is reviving~"
The sun slowly rose overhead, and Lu Chen took Bai Youyou and walked along a farther but cleaner alley.
Two strong men in shorts passed by them carrying a sack.
Lu Chen sniffed his nose and smelled a faint smell of blood. He suddenly stopped and strode over to stop the man, "Stop!"
The two men glared at each other, and immediately showed their fierceness, "You little bastard, I advise you not to cause trouble!"
"Put him down!"
Lu Chen was not threatened and raised his hand to grab the sack on the man's shoulder.
"You brat, you're looking for death!"
One of the men with a fat face swung his fist and hit Lu Chen in the face.
But before the fist reached him, Lu Chen grabbed the wrist and exerted force. With a "crack", the man let out a shrill scream!
The man carrying the sack kept backing away. He caught a glimpse of Bai Youyou standing nearby and immediately dropped the sack on his shoulder and rushed towards Bai Youyou.
Only a fool would stand there and let someone hold him hostage. Bai Youyou ran away.
Lu Chen threw away the big man with a broken wrist, flew up, and kicked the man on the back of the head.
"boom!"
When Bai Youyou turned around, the man was sliding down the wall like mud.
Lu Chen ignored the two men and strode to the sack and untied the rope.
When they saw the man clearly, Bai Youyou and Lu Chen were both shocked.
