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

Chapter 1548 Do you think you are qualified to hold me hostage?

Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe looked at each other and understood each other.

Huo Changhe stopped and did not look back.

"What treasure? You are trying to deceive me with such words?"

"I didn't lie to you, Your Majesty. What I said is true. I have a cowhide map with me. The location of the treasure map is recorded on the cowhide map."

Huo Changhe chuckled: "According to what you said, you haven't even found the treasure map yet, and you dare to bring it to me and tell me that you have treasure?"

Zhao Hongzhu was afraid that Huo Changhe would not listen, so he quickly said, "Your Majesty, I know this sounds ridiculous, but every word I say is true. Why did I settle in Wujiazhuang? Why did I choose Sun Dong's family? It's all because of that forest."

Yan Ruyu listened calmly. What she said didn't sound fake.

"Where is the picture?"

"In the pocket of my undergarment."

Huo Changhe rolled his eyes silently, making Yan Ruyu want to laugh. She turned and stood in front of Zhao Hongzhu.

Zhao Hongzhu was sitting on the ground, tied up tightly.

Yan Ruyu swung the dagger and cut the rope.

"where?"

"I'll get it myself," Zhao Hongzhu stretched his arms and legs, reached inside, and took the cowhide drawing.

Yan Ruyu's attention was all on her hands, in case she took out something else.

At that moment, Zhao Hongzhu opened his mouth and exhaled a puff of smoke, which hit Yan Ruyu's face.

Yan Ruyu's body swayed and she felt a little dizzy.

A cold light flashed in Zhao Hongzhu's hand, and it pressed against her neck.

Huo Changhe was shocked and angry: "Let her go!"

Zhao Hongzhu chuckled: "Let her go? Then how can I leave? Prince, you are indeed smart, and your princess is not bad, but she is still far behind you."

"I admire you very much. If we didn't have a deep hatred before, I might consider marrying you. Even now, if I want to get married in the future, I want to find a man like you."

Huo Changhe said with disgust: "Don't try to disgust me."

Zhao Hongzhu stopped smiling and said, "If the prince wants to save your princess, please prepare a car and 30,000 taels of silver for me."

"Thirty thousand?"

"Yes, if the prince feels that you, the princess, are not worth thirty thousand, a little less is fine," Zhao Hongzhu laughed proudly, whispering in Yan Ruyu's ear, "Look, when it comes to the critical moment, the man wants the money instead of you."

Yan Ruyu stroked her head with her hand and slightly closed her eyes.

"So, the treasure map you mentioned was purely to deceive me? Who told you to do this? Mr. Mo?"

Zhao Hongzhu was puzzled: "What Mr. Mo? Of course what I said is true, but I will not give it to you."

"It was you who brought about the destruction of the Red Lotus Sect that we had worked so hard to establish. The treasure is our only hope of reviving the sect. How could I give it to you?"

"You haven't even found a map yet, and you're still talking about reinstating the sect." Huo Changhe said in a contemptuous tone, "Quickly release the princess, and I can still let you go."

Zhao Hongzhu put the knife against Yan Ruyu's neck and said, "I should be the one to say this. If Your Majesty does not want the princess to be buried with me, then hurry up and prepare according to my instructions."

Yan Ruyu said slowly, "You don't have any bullshit pictures on you, right?"

"Of course not, of course there is."

"The cowhide map is still in Wujiazhuang, right?"

"I said no, it's on me!"

"Because we went there suddenly, you had a lot of things left unpacked. You wanted to deceive us, and then you would come back and rob Wujiazhuang and kill the father and son of the Sun family, right?"

Zhao Hongzhu paused and gritted his teeth, "Yes, that's right, they deserve to die. I spared their lives out of kindness, but they turned their backs on me. They dared to treat me like this, I will make them pay the price."

As soon as Zhao Hongzhu finished speaking, he suddenly felt that his breath was not enough and he was a little breathless. He was full of strength just now, but now his arms were numb and his body was as soft as noodles.

Yan Ruyu flicked her finger and pushed her dagger away.

Huo Changhe hurried over and protected Yan Ruyu.

Although he knew she would be fine, he was still frightened. If Yan Ruyu hadn't just glanced at him and told him not to worry, he would have almost killed Zhao Hongzhu immediately.

Zhao Hongzhu fell to the ground, Yan Ruyu leaned over and looked at her: "You can still hide a sharp blade on your body, which is also a skill of yours."

"Someone is coming."

The secret guard appeared, and Huo Changhe ordered: "Go to the Sun family in Wujiazhuang and find a cowhide map."

"Yes."

Zhao Hongzhu looked at Huo Changhe unwillingly: "No, no, that map is mine, it's ours!"

Yan Ruyu held her knife and said, "You can't even save your own life, what else do you have?"

Zhao Hongzhu panted, "I want to revive the Red Lotus Sect... We will definitely be able to occupy the northwest and become an independent country. We will definitely be able to do so."

"You are just dreaming," Huo Changhe said coldly, "You are just a church that has some evil intentions and you want to rule the world. It's really a foolish dream."

Zhao Hongzhu collapsed to the ground, unable to move, staring at Yan Ruyu: "What did you use on me? What's wrong with me..."

"Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you fight a hundred battles without danger. But you dared to hold me hostage without even knowing what I can do."

"Ordinary poisons are useless to this princess, but the poison of this princess is something that ordinary people like you cannot resist."

Zhao Hongzhu's eyes widened and she gritted her teeth and said, "Poisonous woman..."

"You can scold me as much as you want," Yan Ruyu said without caring, "swearing a few times won't cure your poison. Getting angry will only make the poison spread faster."

Zhao Hongzhu immediately shut up and dared not curse anymore.

Yan Ruyu chuckled: "Sure enough, you are still afraid of death."

After dealing with Zhao Hongzhu, Yan Ruyu returned to her own courtyard and wrote down everything related to the incident.

Judging from Zhao Hongzhu's reaction, they have nothing to do with Mr. Mo and should not be from the same group.

What magical powers does the Goddess of the Sky Eye have and whether her ability to predict the future is true or false remains to be confirmed in the next step.

It depends on whether the abbot of the Taoist temple dares to come and talk face to face, and then we will know everything.

The people who went to Wujiazhuang came back soon and indeed found a cowhide map.

Yan Ruyu took out the map she had obtained from "Water Flow and Governance" and compared it with the map, and found that they were different.

There is absolutely no similarity.

In other words, this cowhide map has nothing to do with the previous ones.

It seems that it is just as Zhao Hongzhu said, she does not have a ready-made treasure map in her hand, only a cowhide map that records where the treasure is.

Yan Ruyu was actually not very interested in this. What treasure map? It might just be a huge trap.

She is not short of money now, so she is not in a hurry to get a treasure map. She will put it aside for now and work on it later.

If there really is a trap, the person who set it up should be anxious.

As dusk approached, the little Taoist priest was carried back to the temple.

The door of the Taoist temple was half closed and was kicked open by someone, almost flying away.

The abbot was resting with his eyes closed in the house, and was startled when he heard the noise.
