Who put the yellow robe on me?

Jiang Chen's four bodyguards, holding the prescriptions given by Zhang Qinghe of the Imperial Hospital, went to various pharmacies in the four directions of east, south, west and north of the capital to check the medicine purchase records.

Jiang Chen thought, if his guess was correct, then Mr. Transcriber's fainting was not a coincidence.

Although it is not yet known who leaked this folk recipe, if we can find out who bought the herbs according to this recipe, we can follow up further based on this clue.

Deng Yunde came to a pharmacy at the south gate of the capital and asked the owner if anyone had purchased similar medicinal materials.

This was the last pharmacy he was looking for in the south of the city, and he knew that his hope was extremely slim.

The owner of the drug store looked through the medicine purchase records and found that someone had bought three doses of this medicine more than ten days ago.

"Sir! There are actually people who buy this kind of medicine!" The shopkeeper took out the medicine purchase record and showed it to Deng Yunde.

Deng Yunde was ecstatic: "Boss, can you remember who bought these medicines?"

The owner of the medicine shop frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I've long forgotten what he looked like. However, here is his name."

As he spoke, he flipped through the notebook.

Deng Yunde opened the record book and saw the name of the person who bought the medicine.

At this moment, a burst of urgent cries for help suddenly came from outside the pharmacy.

Deng Yunde frowned and quickly ran out of the pharmacy. He saw two masked men chasing a man. This man was none other than Qin Yiliang, whom the four of them had protected in the ruined temple.

Deng Yunde rushed over without hesitation and quickly drove away the two masked men.

With his agility and sharp moves, he quickly subdued a masked man.

Seeing this, the other masked man looked at Deng Yunde coldly, quickly performed a set of exquisite sword techniques, and finally used a "luring the enemy into a trap" move, jumped backwards, and then the two quickly fled the scene.

Deng Yunde sheathed his sword and turned to check on Qin Yiliang. He had been stabbed several times, bleeding profusely. He was pale, shaky, and eventually collapsed to the ground.

Deng Yunde hurriedly helped Qin Yiliang up and shouted to the nearby pharmacy: "Quick! Help!"

The doctor at the pharmacy heard the shout and immediately ran out. Seeing Qin Yiliang's injuries, he hurriedly said, "This young man's injuries are serious and require immediate treatment. Young Master! Help him into the pharmacy!"

Deng Yunde helped Qin Yiliang into the pharmacy, and the doctor quickly arranged the equipment and medicines needed for treatment.

The doctor wiped the blood off Qin Yiliang's body with a clean cloth, carefully cleaned the wound, and then began to suture and bandage it.

Deng Yunde watched nervously from the side and asked, "Doctor, how is Mr. Qin's injury?"

The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Thank goodness he received timely treatment, otherwise his injuries would have worsened and he might not be able to survive. Now he needs to rest and avoid further stimulation."

After a while, Qin Yiliang gradually regained consciousness, his eyes somewhat confused. Upon seeing Deng Yunde, he weakly said, "Thank you, Brother Deng, for saving me. Otherwise, I would have been in great danger."

Deng Yunde said in a deep voice: "Mr. Qin, you don't have to be polite. What exactly happened?"

Qin Yiliang said in a trembling voice: "Someone wants to kill us, Brother Deng, go save Brother Luo!"

Deng Yunde's heart tightened, but Qin Yiliang in front of him was seriously injured and it was inconvenient for him to act alone. However, if he did not stay by Qin Yiliang's side, he might be ambushed again.

Deng Yunde then found a guard at the south gate of the city and said, "Hurry up and go to the east of the city to find Dianzhang and tell him to bring the prince to Yinghe Pharmacy."

Soon after, Jiang Chen, Dian Zhang and others quickly rushed to the soldiers' camp. When Jiang Chen saw Qin Yiliang, he asked with concern, "What happened?"

Qin Yiliang was still in shock, gasping for breath as he said, "The ruined temple was attacked. Less than an hour after the guards left, a group of assassins in black came to assassinate us."

Qin Yiliang continued, "Feng Liyan and Han Qingsong fought desperately, buying us time to escape. Feng Liyan blocked most of the assassins, while Han Qingsong escorted Luo Shihua and me to escape."

After hearing this, Jiang Chen frowned and asked, "What's the situation of the ruined temple?"

Qin Yiliang said in a low voice: "There are countless casualties in the ruined temple. Feng Liyan and Han Qingsong are still alive and dead, and Luo Shihua is nowhere to be found."

Dianzhang clenched his fists, a trace of anger flashing in his eyes: "These people are really lawless. They dare to commit murder in the capital."

Jiang Chen said calmly: "We must act immediately. We can't let these killers continue to act with impunity."

He turned to Deng Yunde and said, "Come with me back to the ruined temple to check the situation. Zhou Liangwei, you and your men will continue to guard Qin Yiliang. Dianzhang, you and Xu Ningce will continue to search for Luo Shihua's whereabouts in the city."

"Yes!" Everyone obeyed the order and acted separately.

……

Dian Zhang and Xu Ningce were frantically searching for Luo Shihua in the city. Time was running out and they knew that every moment was related to Luo Shihua's life or death.

Suddenly, Xu Ningce saw two men in black who looked exactly like the ones Qin Yiliang described. Dianzhang pulled Xu Ningce behind a tree.

Xu Ningce whispered, "Brother Dian, should we..." After that, Xu Ningce made a beheading gesture.

Dian Zhang calmly shook his head. "No, Brother Xu. They don't know how many assassins there are. We can't alert them! Let's follow them first and see if we can find Brother Luo."

The two men quietly followed the man in black, keeping a certain distance to ensure that they would not be discovered.

The man in black frantically searched the city, seemingly looking for someone as well. Dian Zhang and Xu Ningce exchanged glances and continued to follow him in tacit understanding.

Just then, a man in black came over and whispered a few words to the other two men in black. Then the three of them walked straight towards Tianxiang Pavilion.

Dianzhang and Xu Ningce looked at each other, and both understood that they might be going to find Luo Shihua, so they immediately followed them.

Three men in black walked up to the entrance of Tianxiang Pavilion and attacked a scholar standing there. Dianzhang and Xu Ningce immediately drew their swords and rushed forward to stop the men in black from attacking.

"Stop!" Dian Zhang shouted angrily, quickly drawing his sword to engage the man in black. Xu Ningce also joined the battle without hesitation, and the two of them worked together to repel the three assassins.

During the fierce fight, one of the assassins was hit by Dianzhang. With a fierce look on his face, he immediately bit the poison hidden in his back teeth and died of the poison. The other two assassins saw that the situation was not good and quickly retreated, disappearing at the end of the street.

Dian Zhang and Xu Ningce gasped for breath and turned to look at the scholar who was being attacked. Who else could it be but Luo Shihua? Luo Shihua's face was pale, his body was trembling slightly, and his eyes were filled with despair.

Luo Shihua closed his eyes and said weakly, "Kill me!"

Dianzhang hurried forward and held Luo Shihua's shoulders: "Brother Luo, open your eyes, it's us."

"Ah!?" Luo Shihua opened his eyes and was extremely excited when he saw Luo Shihua and the other person.

Tears glistened in his eyes, and his voice choked: "Brother Dian, Brother Xu, you are finally here!"

Dianzhang gently patted Luo Shihua's shoulder and said soothingly, "Brother Luo, you are safe. Let's leave here quickly. His Highness is waiting for us in the ruined temple. It's not safe here."

On the way, Dian Zhang asked Luo Shihua what happened, and Luo Shihua sighed...
