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

Yan Ruyu waved her hand when she heard this, and Linlang immediately turned around and went out to look for Yu where she currently lived.

"Wait," Yan Ruyu instructed, "Search the small house where she used to live. Ask Beibei to bring a few people with you. If you meet Shen Wenqi, don't get into a conflict with him for the time being."

"Yes."

Yan Ruyu guessed that Shen Wenqi must be extremely upset right now, thinking only about his money and not caring about these things, and he must not be at home at the moment.

But it's better to be careful.

Jiang Tangli couldn't help but said, "I'll go too."

She followed him, leaving only Yan Ruyu and Mrs. Zhao in the front hall.

Although things calmed down for a while, Mrs. Zhao's heart became even more unstable.

The young princess in front of me was truly amazing. Just by standing there, her legs were shaking in her trousers.

Yan Ruyu drank her tea slowly, the look in the corner of her eyes becoming increasingly deep.

"You were planning to sell Miss Jiang to a brothel before. Were you just saying it to scare her, or did you really plan to do so?"

Mrs. Zhao pursed her dry lips and said, "I...I just wanted to scare her. I dare not really sell her."

"Don't dare?" Yan Ruyu put down the teacup, "If you dare to lie now, you are really bold."

The teacup made a soft sound, and Mrs. Zhao's heart was trembling.

"Princess, I am indeed planning to sell her. I know a brothel owner, and she said that if I bring a virgin girl to sell, she can give me a good price. I dare not kill her, so I thought that this would be a way to leave her alive."

"A way to survive," Yan Ruyu's voice was icy, "Do you want such a way to survive?"

Mrs. Zhao kowtowed repeatedly: "Princess, I know I was wrong, and I will never do it again!"

"Which brothel, who is the madam, how did you meet, and how did you negotiate? Tell me everything in detail!"

Mrs. Zhao dared not hide anything anymore: "The man wearing the black cloak ordered me to trick people and kill them. I didn't dare to do that. But when I went to buy rouge for Madam Yu, I met the madam of Chunwan Tower. She was also buying rouge. I heard her tell her eunuchs to teach the new girl a lesson, and I became interested."

"At first, she didn't believe the old slave because she had never met him and had no dealings with him. Later, when she saw that the old slave had a lot of silver and was dressed elegantly, she reluctantly became interested in him."

"But she was very cautious and didn't agree to buy someone. After two more appointments for tea, she finally agreed."

Mrs. Zhao knelt down and took two steps: "Princess, every word I said is true. I would never dare to deceive you."

Yan Ruyu asked again, "How many days have you been gone? Didn't Yu ask you when you came back?"

"I asked. I had thought of a reason before I went. I said my grandson was sick and my daughter-in-law sent someone to send a message. I went back to give him money to buy medicine and find a doctor."

"Yu's personality is average. She is gentle and considerate to Sima Shen, but she is actually a bit mean and stingy behind the scenes. However, she was in a good mood that day, so she agreed and gave me some money."

"I think maybe it's because she said her grandson was sick and she has Zhuo Ge'er herself, so she softened her heart."

"Besides Shen Wenqi, who else does Yu usually associate with?"

Mrs. Zhao thought about it carefully and said, "I have never seen this before. She doesn't know anyone and doesn't go out much. At most, she buys rouge and drinks tea."

"I am usually very careful because I live close to her and I am afraid of running into Madam Shen. I still think they are very brave."

"Right under Mrs. Shen's nose, it's really..."

She glanced at Yan Ruyu stealthily, intending to take the opportunity to express that she was also dissatisfied with Yu Shi and wanted to flatter her. Unexpectedly, when she looked up, she met Yan Ruyu's cold and slightly sarcastic gaze.

That look seemed to see through everything, including the thoughts in her mind, and she swallowed her words back.

There was nothing to ask for the time being, Yan Ruyu waved her hand, and Mrs. Zhao was taken away.

She secretly sorted out the questions that Mrs. Zhao had just answered and sorted out the context of the matter.

Just as he was thinking about it, Yinding came in quickly.

"Princess, we found a person. To be exact, a corpse."

Yan Ruyu's eyes were slightly stern: "Whose body is it?"

"After identification, it was confirmed that it was another person who delivered the letter to Miss Jiang. He has been dead for many days."

Yan Ruyu frowned slightly. One of the two people in charge of delivering letters under Jiang Ruhuan, Old Wu, said he was sick, but in fact he was poisoned and had been rescued by her.

As for the other one, he said he was out shopping, but he has not been seen since. I suspected that they were betraying each other, but now it seems...

One was poisoned and the other was killed, they must have both been loyal.

Seeing that the truth was about to be exposed, Shen Wenqi ordered the assassination.

"Go and tell Miss Jiang what she plans to do, and follow her instructions."

"Yes." Yinding turned around and did it.

Yan Ruyu sighed quietly in her heart, thinking of Huo Changhe, and didn't know how things were going.

……

With a loud bang, a big hole was broken in the wall in front of him, revealing a dark room inside.

Xiao Chiye was stunned. He didn't expect there was a dark room behind this, and he didn't expect that the things Huo Changhe brought were so powerful.

"Your Majesty, this..."

Huo Changhe's face darkened slightly. After the dust settled, he led his men into the dark room, with Xiao Chiye following closely behind him.

He wanted to raise the torch, but Huo Changhe stopped him: "No."

"I don't know what's in the dark room, whether it's something flammable, don't start a fire easily."

This was what Yan Ruyu specifically told Huo Changhe before he left.

Some dark rooms or dark wells may not be visited for a long time and may change, producing flammable and explosive gases, or toxic gases, which may easily lead to danger.

Huo Changhe remembered it.

"Well, it's so dark inside..." Xiao Chiye pressed his hand on the hilt of the knife, "I will lead the way and go in to take a look."

Huo Changhe took out the prepared solar headlight and put it on his head: "No need, just follow me."

The lights came on, illuminating the darkness with incredible clarity, and Xiao Chiye's eyes widened again.

The people brought by Huo Changhe were not surprised - they also had small flashlights, but not as big as the prince's, and they could not be worn on the head like the prince's.

But it is also a rare treasure, and it was given by the princess.

Entering the dark room, I found it very shabby and simple, as if the owner had left in a hurry. There were a few pieces of clothes and a pair of boots scattered on the ground.

On the dusty table lay an unsheathed sword and a painting.

There are faint words on the wall, the color is dark red and mottled, but if you look closely, you can still make out the words.

The light above Huo Changhe's head shone at the words one by one.

Xiao Chiye's heart was pounding, his lips were dry and trembling slightly as he read out each word.

Red Lotus Sect.

Xiao Chiye's face turned pale: "This! Your Majesty, I have failed in my duty!"

Huo Changhe waved his hand, interrupted him, walked to the desk and looked at the painting on the table.
