"It's poison. It's too toxic. We can't keep it." Just after she finished speaking, the white porcelain bottle began to shake violently. Jiang Xue pinched the lid, and soon the movement in the porcelain bottle became smaller. Jiang Xue then put the bottle in the medicine box.

"Here, feed this medicine to him. I'll apply some medicine on him. He'll be fine when he wakes up." Jiang Xue said.

Lin Yiyi took it and fed the medicine. After Jiang Xue bandaged Wang Ziyan's wound, she packed up the medicine box and looked at Lin Yiyi and said, "Take good care of him these few days and don't worry about other things, okay?"

"But King Cheng..."

"Don't worry, we are here."

Lin Yiyi lowered her eyes, nodded and said, "Okay."

Jiang Xue glanced at Wang Ziyan, and then whispered to Lin Yiyi, "Gu Yu has already dealt with Wang Zijun, you don't have to worry about him doing anything."

"Gu Yu killed Wang Zijun?"

"Yes." Jiang Xue nodded and said, "However, I think the main reason why Gu Yu wanted to kill him is because he captured you."

Lin Yiyi looked depressed, with her head slightly lowered, and asked, "Is he not injured?"

"No, you saw it just now, he's full of energy." Jiang Xue said.

"Please help me tell him not to do this again in the future." Lin Yiyi said softly.

Jiang Xue nodded and said, "I'm afraid it's useless to tell him. With his temper, let him be."

"But...."

"Gu Yu is very sensible in what he does. He knows that you are married and will not overstep the line."

Lin Yiyi also knew that Gu Yu had a stubborn temper, so she had to tell Jiang Xue: "Then tell him to be more careful in the future."

"Don't worry." Jiang Xue patted Lin Yiyi's shoulder gently and said softly, "Take good care of him."

"kindness."

When Jiang Xue came out of the house, Mu Feng stepped forward and asked, "How is the young marquis?"

"It's okay now. Just rest for a few days."

"That's good." Mu Feng said softly.

Gu Yu, who was standing nearby, heard that Wang Ziyan was fine, and said calmly, "I'll go get busy first." Then he turned and left.

Mu Feng called out "Hello", but Gu Yu ignored him.

Jiang Xue looked at Mu Feng and said, "Okay, stop calling him."

Mu Feng's eyes turned slightly, and he said, "Okay."

As evening approached, the weather was still gloomy and the wind was bitingly cold.

Cheng Wangfu.

Mu Qi walked into the room with a serious expression, bowed to Li Lingxuan respectfully and said, "Your Highness, I have already found out that the person who killed Wang Zijun was Gu Yu, a young master from the black market. I also found the token of Qingyun Hall in the corner of Baoyue Tower."

"Bring it here." Li Lingxuan said lazily while sitting on a chair.

"Yes." Mu Qi said and stepped forward and placed the token in Li Lingxuan's hand.

"Qingyun Hall? Gu Yu?" Li Lingxuan looked at the token and slowly uttered these words. Then he threw the token on the table beside him and looked at Mu Qi and said, "He can't be from Qingyun Hall."

"Your Majesty, I have already sent someone to investigate. Gu Yu stayed in Pei Mansion for a period of time when he was young."

"Oh?" Li Lingxuan's eyes turned slightly, and then he thought of Pei Zhijin. Old man Pei was killed because he discovered his conspiracy. He was also wondering why people from the Pei family appeared near Qingyun Hall.

As he thought about it, the corners of his mouth rose, and his eyes turned slightly, as if he had thought of something, "Oh, so that's it."

"Your Highness, do you want to send someone to capture Gu Yu?" Mu Qi asked.

Li Lingxuan looked at Mu Qi and said, "I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to catch the people in the black market."

"Then your subordinate..."

Before Mu Qi finished speaking, Li Lingxuan said, "Bring Jiang Xue here, and we'll get the intelligence collection."

Mu Qi frowned slightly after hearing this, and paused for a moment before saying, "Your Majesty, Miss Jiang is secretly protected by someone. It may be difficult to bring Miss Jiang here."

"Didn't Pei Zhijin go out of town to suppress the bandits?" Li Lingxuan looked at Mu Qi fiercely and continued, "If the news of Pei Zhijin's death spreads to the capital, do you think Jiang Xue will lose her composure?"

"I'll do it right away." Mu Qi bowed respectfully and walked out quickly.

night.

At the foot of the barren mountain outside the city.

Pei Zhijin was reading the letter from Gu Yu in the tent when Wen Chuan walked in quickly. "Sir, I have sent people to guard the foot of the mountain. If there is any movement, our people will immediately send out a signal."

"Yes." Pei Zhijin put the letter aside, and Wen Yu walked in from outside, "Sir, the things given by the two ladies are ready."

"kindness."

Wen Yu continued, "Sir, do you think that thing is really that powerful?"

Pei Zhijin raised his eyes and looked at Wen Yu, saying, "Why don't you try?"

"No, if you want to try it, you should try it on those bandits."

Wenchuan rolled his eyes at Wenyu.

Wen Yu looked at Wen Chuan and said, "Don't you agree, Chuan'er?"

Wenchuan didn't say anything. He looked at Pei Zhijin and said, "I'll go on night patrol." Then he turned and left.

"Chuan'er, why are you leaving?" Wen Yu shouted loudly, and smiled at Pei Zhijin and said, "Sir, I will also go on night patrol."

Then he ran out after Wenchuan.

Outside the tent, the cold wind made the flames rise high. Wen Yu followed closely behind Wen Chuan, "Chuan'er, we two brothers haven't seen each other for a long time. Why are you so unenthusiastic when we meet?"

Wenchuan walked forward, his feet making rustling sounds on the stones. Seeing that Wenchuan didn't say anything, Wenyu took two quick steps to block Wenchuan, "Chuan'er?"

Wen Chuan frowned slightly, looked at Wen Yu and said, "It's a dark and windy night, so we need to be on our guard."

"Are you afraid they'll attack at night?"

As soon as Wen Yu finished speaking, a sharp arrow flew through the grass and shot towards the two of them.

"careful!"

Wenchuan's eyes were sharp as he quickly pushed Wen Yu away, and the two of them rolled down the hillside together.

Then several more sharp arrows shot towards him.

The two men rolled into the bushes in a panic, and Wenchuan immediately took out a flare from his arms and released it.

A brilliant firework bloomed in the dark night sky. Pei Zhijin heard the noise and immediately ran out of the tent.

There was already chaos outside. One of his men ran up to Pei Zhijin and said anxiously, "Sir, there is a night attack."

Pei Zhijin looked serious and ordered: "Take a team with me to take a look, and the rest of you should keep watch."

"Yes."

Pei Zhijin ran quickly towards where the fireworks were scattered.

Wenchuan and Wenyu have already fought with those bandits.

When Pei Zhijin arrived, the bandits attacked him one after another.

"Master, be careful!" Wenchuan and Wenyu shouted to Pei Zhijin anxiously.

Pei Zhijin drew the sword from his waist and dodged quickly, then kicked the bandit in front of him with a sharp look.

Then they quickly entered into a fight.

The next day.

As soon as the sky was getting light, it began to snow. Jiang Xue had not slept well the previous night, so as soon as the sun rose, she got up and opened the window, letting in the cold wind.
