On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

The person lying in the carriage was Jiang Tangli.

Yan Ruyu immediately got on the carriage, and Qi Dongqiang followed.

Jiang Tangli was covered with a quilt. Yan Ruyu gently lifted it up, her movements so gentle that she didn't even dare to stir up a breeze.

She didn't know how Jiang Tangli was injured, but looking at her pale face and the smell of blood in the carriage, she could tell that Jiang Tangli must have been seriously injured.

Yan Ruyu was mentally prepared, but when she saw Jiang Tangli's injuries, she still frowned.

There were three holes on her left shoulder, each thicker than a finger, with blood oozing out. The blood was slightly black and red, and had a peculiar fishy smell.

The wound was not bandaged or treated with medicine, but acupuncture points should have been pressed to prevent excessive bleeding.

There is a wound on the chest, which has been bandaged and the condition of the wound cannot be seen.

There were two bloody wounds on her calves, with the skin and flesh rolled up. The blood oozing from the wounds was the same as the hole on her shoulder, black and red, with a unique fishy smell.

There was a black and purple circle on the ankle, as if it had been pinched hard.

Yan Ruyu felt a blockage in her throat and she lightly touched the bloody hole on her shoulder with her fingers. The space immediately issued a warning, and it was indeed poisonous.

Qi Dongqiang said quickly and in a low voice: "I found her on a forest road thirty miles outside Youcheng. If I hadn't arrived in time, she would have..."

Qi Dongqiang said in an annoyed tone: "If I had come a little earlier, maybe she wouldn't have been injured so badly. Sister, can you cure her?"

"I treated the sword wound on the chest, but I didn't dare to do anything with the shoulder and calf. I think these injuries are unusual."

Yan Ruyu nodded: "You did the right thing."

This is not the time or the mood to discuss the specific situation.

Just at this moment, Huo Changhe came out and was stunned when he saw An Cizhou.

"Your Highness," Yan Ruyu got off the carriage, "Jiang Tangli is in the carriage, and she is seriously injured. I have to treat her. The situation is urgent, so I will borrow Cao's mansion first."

Yan Ruyu's mind raced. Not only would it take time to bring people back home, but Jiang Tangli would also have to endure another bumpy ride.

Moreover, no one knows where the person who hurt her came from. The palace is a big target and someone might be watching it. The governor's mansion is also guarded, so it's just right.

"Okay, you ask the carriage to go to the back door and I will open it myself." Huo Changhe agreed immediately.

Yan Ruyu said to Linlang, "Linlang, go and whisper to Madam Cao that she wants to borrow a small courtyard. A quiet and secluded place would be best."

"Yes."

The three parties acted simultaneously.

Mrs. Cao was efficient. Not only did she arrange the courtyard, she also arranged for her trusted maids to serve at the gate of the courtyard.

Yan Ruyu didn't have time to be polite with her. She brought Jiang Tangli into the house and quickly arranged for the detoxification.

Not knowing what the poison was, they first boiled water with red fruits to keep them alive, and then quickly tested the composition of the poison to prepare an antidote.

The others were in the outer room obeying orders, while Yan Ruyu was busy alone in the room.

After more than an hour, the water in the blood basin finally turned from black to red, and Jiang Tangli's pale face also had a little blood color.

Yan Ruyu breathed a sigh of relief and bandaged the bloody hole on her shoulder.

Then bandage the calf.

While bandaging her calf, Yan Ruyu suddenly paused.

She felt that she had seen such a wound somewhere before.

Where is it?

At this time, the voice of Governor Cao was heard from outside. The banquet had ended and the guests left one after another.

Originally, this was just an excuse that Yan Ruyu used to meet Madam Shen. Now that she has met him, they can go their separate ways.

When Yan Ruyu heard the voice of Governor Cao, she suddenly remembered where she had seen such a wound.

She bandaged Jiang Tangli's wound and went to the outer room.

Just then, Governor Cao came into the room, and Yan Ruyu asked, "Lord Cao, has Zhu'er's body been sent away?"

"He was sent away two days ago," said Governor Cao. "He was put in a fine coffin. Don't worry, Princess."

Yan Ruyu sighed slightly. It was not that she was worried about this, but she wanted to take another look at Zhu'er's body.

Madam Cao asked, "Princess, is there anything else you need?"

Yan Ruyu came back to her senses: "Not for now, Madam, keep this matter secret for now, don't tell anyone."

Madam Cao and Governor Cao looked at each other and nodded seriously.

Huo Changhe said to Yan Ruyu: "Yu'er, I will go back to the mansion and arrange for a few people to come over."

"Alright."

Huo Changhe left to go about his business, and Linlang went to the corridor in the yard to wait.

The Cao couple had been troubled for too long, so Yan Ruyu asked them to go and rest.

As Governor Cao turned to leave, Yan Ruyu said, "Oh, by the way, Lord Cao, that Mr. An... is my distant relative. Please arrange for him to stay for a while."

Governor Cao nodded in agreement without saying a word and treated An Cizhou as a distinguished guest.

Everyone else had left, leaving only Yan Ruyu and Qi Dongqiang in the room.

Qi Dongqiang also rested for a while, changed clothes, ate something, and felt much better.

Yan Ruyu asked, "Why are you here?"

Qi Dongqiang sighed, "Isn't it because of An Cizhou? He wants to come to the northwest secretly, and he can't make a big fuss, so he can't bring too many people, but they are afraid that he will get hurt on the way. The An family wrote to my father, asking me to help."

"I don't hold an official position, but my kung fu is not bad. I've been to the northwest before, so I know the way. I'm the perfect person for you."

Qi Dongqiang spoke clearly and frankly, with a clear gaze.

Yan Ruyu thought to herself, silly girl, is it difficult to find someone who has no official position, good kung fu, and has been to the northwest? With the strength of the An family, let alone one, even a thousand or eight hundred can be easily found.

"Then why did An Cizhou come to the northwest? You just said, secretly?"

Qi Dongqiang nodded: "Yes, he said that the Sixth Prince Yong Wang asked him to come."

Yan Ruyu was surprised: "Prince Yong?"

"That's right," Qi Dongqiang did not hide it. "According to him, the situation in the capital is very strange and there may be big changes. The emperor is seriously ill and the prince is unkind. I'm afraid..."

Qi Dongqiang didn't say anything else. Their eyes met and they understood each other.

Yan Ruyu frowned. If the emperor died, it would be good for Prince Yong to ascend the throne. However, Prince Yong had been suppressed in the past few years, and it was only in the past six months or so that he began to emerge.

Even the title of Prince Yong was only conferred in the past year, and that was because the emperor wanted to restrain the crown prince.

Prince Yong was weak, and even the court officials did not consider him a suitable candidate. In such a short period of time, he was unable to win over anyone.

Why should he fight the prince?

Yan Ruyu was not optimistic about Prince Yong's situation.

It would be even worse if the prince ascended the throne.

The prince had been dissatisfied with Huo Changhe before, and if he were to hold power one day, he would probably become even more dissatisfied.

However, Yan Ruyu was not afraid. The emperor was far away and he could not fly over to him.

But Huo Changhe had served the country and the people, stationed in Shencheng for so long, and fought in countless battles, big and small. Why should he suffer such humiliation?

Whether you are afraid or not is one thing, but whether you can endure it and whether you should endure it is another.

Yan Ruyu suppressed her emotions and asked, "What's the situation with Jiang Tangli?"
