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

Yan Ruyu wanted to give the little tiger to Zhuo Ge'er.

But the woman did not agree.

"How can this be so embarrassing? I've already troubled you two enough, it would be inappropriate to take anything more."

As they were talking, the carriage stopped.

The woman picked up Zhuo Ge'er and the lantern, then got off the car. She thanked Yinding again and turned to walk into the village.

Huo Changhe lifted the curtain with his fingers, leaving a tiny gap, and looked out.

"Liujiazhuang is a medium-sized village with about 300 people. Because it is close to Zhanyou City, many villagers go to the city to buy or sell."

Seeing that the woman had disappeared, Huo Changhe withdrew his gaze and saw Yan Ruyu playing with the cloth tiger.

"What's wrong?" Huo Changhe noticed that there was something wrong with her expression.

Yan Ruyu chuckled: "Originally, I wanted to give this tiger to the child. I put some fragrance on it so that I can follow the smell to find their residence."

Speaking of this, Huo Changhe recalled the time when he disguised himself as different people, but was always seen through by Yan Ruyu.

"But what?" he asked further.

"But, they didn't want it. They are very vigilant. Not only did they not want it," Yan Ruyu flicked her fingers, and a little bit of silver powder fell on the tiger, which sparkled slightly under the light.

Huo Changhe's face darkened slightly: "She poisoned me?"

"That's right," the space began to sound an alarm as Yan Ruyu took back the cloth tiger.

"She's afraid that we might reveal her whereabouts," Yan Ruyu said, playing with the tiger. "She doesn't even know who we are, but she wants to be on the safe side."

"This kind of poison is strong but slow in onset, so it will definitely kill you, but it won't be so intense that people will notice something is wrong."

"This is a master," Yan Ruyu smiled coolly in the candlelight, "Does the prince still remember her lantern?"

Huo Changhe nodded: "Remember."

Outside the car, Yinding also gave clear instructions to the secret guard accompanying him, asking him to find the woman and find out who she was.

Yan Ruyu ordered Yinding to drive back to the city.

"I'm afraid your Highness will be busy for a while," Yan Ruyu said, "We need to check the spice shop she mentioned. Although it's definitely not real, there must be something on Donghua Road."

Huo Changhe smiled lightly: "That's right. When a real master tells a lie, it's often a mixture of truth and lies, or even 70% truth and 30% lies. The shop is fake, but the road should be real."

"The complex fragrance on her body is also real," Yan Ruyu added, "It's a spice shop, but it must not be a small one without employees. It must be on Donghua Road."

Huo Changhe wrote it down: "Don't worry, I'll make the arrangements."

After returning to the mansion, he came to see the eldest lady to report his safety, and then returned to the courtyard.

Under the bright light, Yan Ruyu took out a drawing.

"Your Majesty, look."

Huo Changhe looked at it carefully, his eyes showing surprise: "Isn't this the pattern on the lantern? When was it drawn?"

Yan Ruyu took out another thing.

Huo Changhe narrowed his eyes slightly.

The box was smooth, with only the words "拾十三" written on it. When the box was opened, there were some patterns inside.

Comparing the two, the patterns are exactly the same.

This box was searched out by Beibei from Taohua's room. Huo Changhe was with the eldest lady at the time and did not see the pattern inside the box.

Now looking at it carefully, I can't help but be surprised.

"It seems that the woman should be related to Mr. Mo."

"I saw the lantern first and thought the pattern looked familiar. Then when I saw Zhuo Ge'er, who looked familiar, I suddenly remembered where I had seen the pattern before."

Yan Ruyu picked up the blueprint and said, "It seems that we took it for granted at the beginning. We thought that the Shen family had caught fire and someone heard the child crying at the scene, so we thought that the child died in the fire."

"Yu'er, do you still remember that old woman once mentioned that Yu also loves to make perfume?"

Yan Ruyu nodded and picked up the cloth tiger on the side: "He loves to make perfumes and has drawn those topographic maps. We were just suspicious before, but now we can be sure that Yu is also Mr. Mo's man."

"Could the sister mentioned by the woman tonight be her?" Huo Changhe pondered, "Could it be that Yu is not dead either? Yu was killed and burned in the governor's mansion, and we only saw the charred corpse."

But I couldn't see that face, was it?

Yan Ruyu frowned, feeling angry.

"If it's really her, Yu is really amazing. She actually faked her death twice."

The first person to die was the one who deceived the Jiang family, and now it happens again.

"It's not confirmed yet," Huo Changhe comforted, "Don't be angry about it, I'll check it out tomorrow."

Yan Ruyu looked at the wooden box with a worried heart. If Yu was still alive, hiding in the dark, she would be like a dangerous bomb that could explode at any time.

If Yu was just a scheming woman who ran away and lived in anonymity, that would be fine.

But Yu is not.

With Mr. Mo behind her, I don't know what he is planning. It's really hard to predict.

Seeing that she was worried, Huo Changhe gently took her in his arms and comforted her in a low voice.

"Don't worry too much. Let's not say we haven't confirmed it's her yet. Even if it is, if she fails once, she will fail again."

Yan Ruyu chuckled: "Your Majesty is very confident."

"of course."

Seeing her smile, Huo Changhe kissed her forehead gently: "Leave these things to me, you don't have to do everything yourself. You have worked hard these days, take a good rest for a few days."

Yan Ruyu did not comment.

Huo Changhe did what he said and arranged the personnel after breakfast the next morning.

He also planned to go to the governor's mansion, firstly to discuss the road construction, and secondly to go to the streets himself to see if he could find anything.

When he went out early in the morning, Yan Ruyu was in the yard, not going anywhere. She was writing and drawing, organizing the information she had collected in the past few days, and then looking at the map of the dilapidated manor where Xiang Guang and the others had lived before, thinking that it should be renovated.

The manor was very large. When Shen Huaixin was there, it was not renovated with great fanfare because they were afraid that he would discover Xiang Guang and the others' hiding place.

Now that Shen Huaixin is not here and Youcheng is not threatening, the manor should be put to use.

Yan Ruyu has always wanted to engage in infrastructure construction, so why not start from there and use it as a storage point to store goods and materials.

Look at the original map and draw a new one. The layout does not need to be changed, but other things should be redesigned to make it more convenient and practical.

While he was busy, Linlang came in quickly: "Master, Madam Sima is here."

Yan Ruyu was a little surprised, as she hadn't seen the old lady for some time.

The last time we moved, we invited her to a banquet, but the old lady wasn't there. She said she was guarding the tomb of the old prime minister.

The old couple had a deep affection for each other, and the old prime minister died on the way, so they could only be buried in one place. After they settled down in the northwest, they let their son bring the body back for burial.

Every year the old lady would guard his tomb for a period of time.

"Where are people?"

"I have already gone to the eldest lady's place. Please go over there as well."

Yan Ruyu nodded and asked Linlang to reply first. She changed her clothes and came right away.

He took out some fresh fruits, two jars of fruit wine, and some cupcakes of various flavors from the space, filled two full baskets, and took them to the eldest lady's yard.
