"Hold this in your hand."

Ye Qingluo placed a small stone in Ye Beimo's hand. This thing could block the medicinal properties brought by the smoke.

When the smoke cleared, all the assassins present, including those from Chu Beiyu's side, collapsed to the ground, losing the ability to resist.

The leading black-clad assassin struggled to get up and looked at Ye Qingluo in disbelief.

"What did you do to us?"

"Oh, you can still move, but using your internal energy to resist will only cause you to suffer serious damage."

Ye Qingluo didn't expect that the leader could still get up from the ground, which shows how deep his internal strength is. Besides him, Chu Beiyu was also able to move.

However, no matter how strong one's internal strength is, it will be blocked when it comes into contact with the smoke she creates, but the length of time will vary.

"Tell me, who ordered you to come here to steal the beauty serum?"

Ye Qingluo looked at the black-clad leader who was about to lose his balance and asked in a cold voice.

"Humph, if you want to kill me, then kill me. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"

The leader in black used his inner strength to resist the effects of the smoke, but his attitude remained arrogant.

"Even if I die, I will not betray the person behind this."

"You are indeed a man of integrity, but you have ruined Huichuntang like this. Wouldn't it be too easy for you to die?"

"I wonder if you have ever heard of the phrase 'life is worse than death'."

Ye Qingluo raised the corners of his lips and said in a faint voice.

"what……"

The black-clad assassins who were hit by the smoke were unable to move, and they felt as if their bodies were being eaten by thousands of insects and ants.

Apart from them, the rest of the guards were the same.

Ye Qingluo glanced at Ye Beimo beside him and handed him a small bag of stones.

"Your Highness, there are many people here. Put the stones in the bag in the hands of those who are affected by the smoke, and their situation will naturally be solved. I will go to save Cuizhu."

The people on both sides were not evenly distributed, and this was all she could think of.

"Okay." Ye Beimo responded lightly and walked towards Yunzhou.

At this time, Ye Qingluo also came to Cuizhu, first dissolved the medicinal properties of her and Li Er, and then asked the two of them to scatter the stones.

In a short while, everyone except the assassin in black recovered.

The guards surrounded the assassins, and at this moment several figures flew out of the warehouse and headed straight towards Ye Qingluo.

"Madam, be careful!" Cuizhu, who was the first to notice it, almost exclaimed.

When the long sword was about to stab Ye Qingluo, Ye Beimo rushed towards Ye Qingluo, and while leading him away, he slapped the assassin away with a palm.

Cuizhu and the others breathed a sigh of relief. The assassin fell to the ground. Seeing that his attack failed, he aimed at the remaining stone in Li Er's hand and handed it to the leader in black.

"not good!"

Ye Qingluo had just made a move when he saw the black-clothed leader, who had been removed from the effects of the drug, turned and left, his eyes finally falling on Su Wan.

"My Lord, save me."

Things happened so quickly that no one saw how Su Wan was held hostage by the black-clad leader.

Chu Beiyu said angrily, "Let her go!"

"Marquis Pingyuan, if you want your woman to be safe and sound within one day, take the beauty serum to the ruined temple outside the city to exchange it, otherwise you will have to wait for her body to be collected!"

After the black-clad leader said this, he took Su Wan away using Qinggong.

"Wan'er..."

Yun Zhou came to Ye Beimo's side and said, "Your Highness, how should we deal with these assassins?"

"Send him to the Dali Temple for interrogation."

"Yes!"

After Yun Zhou responded, he and the guards who came with him took these people away.

Only after all these people were taken away did Li Er and Cui Zhu both breathe a sigh of relief.

Things finally calmed down.

"You are hurt?"

Only then did Ye Qingluo notice that there was a long cut on Ye Beimo's clothes on his left arm, and blood was seeping out.

She looked around. After the fight just now, the surroundings were in a mess and there was no place to rest.

"Wait for me outside. I'll take care of your wound first."

Ye Beimo nodded slightly, his eyes full of indifference as he passed by Chu Beiyu.

Until Ye Beimo's figure completely disappeared in the backyard, Chu Beiyu, who was standing there, seemed to have found an outlet for all his dissatisfaction. He rushed over aggressively and started questioning harshly.

"Ye Qingluo, what is your relationship with the Regent?"

Facing Chu Beiyu's questioning, Ye Qingluo looked calm, "My Lord, what do you think?"

Chu Beiyu was stunned, and his anger grew stronger, "Ye! Qing! Luo!"

"How dare you betray me!"

"Tsk, what's the point of talking about betrayal? Chu Beiyu, you have to understand clearly before this, there is no relationship between you and me."

"Besides, as a doctor, I treat all illnesses equally. Instead of spending your time pondering the relationship between me and the Regent, you might as well think about how to save Su Wan."

"The day goes by very quickly."

"How dare you say that." Veins bulged on Chu Beiyu's forehead, and he wanted to strangle Ye Qingluo to death.

"If it weren't for the beauty serum you made, how could I have provoked these assassins? That person would not have taken Wan'er away when I was not prepared!"

"Ye Qingluo, you have to take the main responsibility in this matter. Hand over the beauty serum."

Ye Qingluo had a look of contempt on his face, and was not afraid at all even though Chu Beiyu in front of him looked like he wanted to eat someone.

"My Lord, you just said that the assassin took advantage of your unpreparedness and Su Wan was captured."

"In other words, you are useless. What does it have to do with me?"

"You... use strong words to make sense."

Chu Beiyu clenched his fists so hard that they made a crackling sound. He finally realized that Ye Qingluo had a very powerful mouth.

He couldn't win the argument with words alone.

He tried to calm himself down, "So what do you want me to do in exchange for the beauty serum?"

Seeing Chu Beiyu's helpless look, Ye Qingluo chuckled. It must be said that from a certain perspective, Chu Beiyu was really amazing. He could endure even when he was so angry.

"I do have this beauty serum, but if you want it, you have to exchange it for something."

"I knew you did it on purpose. Wan'er is from the same mansion as you, and she often praises you in front of my mother and me."

"I didn't expect that you could be so cold-blooded when she is in trouble now."

"Or do you feel that I married Wan'er as my equal wife, which made you unhappy, and you want to take this opportunity to take revenge."

"Ye Qingluo, you are so vicious."

"Whatever you say, this beauty serum is sold here by a miracle doctor. Every bottle is recorded. The imperial concubine in the palace asked me for it some time ago, so I kept a few bottles."

"My Lord, if you are willing to exchange it with silver, the item will be yours. If you are not willing to part with it, I am sorry. I can only send it to the palace. If you want it, go and ask for it. I don't know if your good Wan'er can survive this period of time."

Expecting her to generously save someone who is always thinking about plotting against you is in danger? It's just a dream!
