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

Huo Changhe holds military power and is most familiar with the art of war. He knows how many military commanders he has to deal with and how many details he has to examine in a year.

He struck cruelly, killing two people in an instant.

The remaining three people's psychological defenses collapsed immediately.

When Huo Changhe walked toward them again with a bleeding knife, the three of them held their breaths and their lips couldn't stop trembling.

"No, don't kill me!"

"My lord, don't kill me!"

Huo Changhe's footsteps paused, and his voice sounded like ice beads falling to the ground: "Do you recognize me?"

"Recognize, recognize, we are the people of the city guard."

Huo Changhe didn't ask, they just did it, and this sentence was like adding hot oil to the fire.

The sword swung again and killed another one.

The remaining two were trembling all over and couldn't speak fully. They struggled to kneel down and kept kowtowing.

The smell of blood filled the tip of their noses, especially clear in the cold snow, and they did not dare to look at the three pairs of wide-open eyes.

"My lord, have mercy on me! I also obey orders."

"Whose orders are you taking?" Yan Ruyu asked.

"It's the order from Ambassador Shen Cheng. Your Majesty, as soldiers, we only obey military orders. There is really nothing we can do."

"As a soldier, you have the nerve to mention the word soldier! The city defense army protects the people, and what are you doing!"

The two of them were speechless, their faces were blue and white, their foreheads were touching the ground, and their brains almost froze at the cold touch.

All he could say was admitting his mistake and begging for mercy.

Yan Ruyu stepped forward and gently held Huo Changhe's fingertips.

"Besides you, who else also takes this order?"

The two of them didn't dare to say they didn't know, they frowned and thought: "A total of five teams were sent out, and we are one of them. As for where they went, we didn't dare to ask more. The Shen Cheng envoy has always requested that everyone should do their own thing, and no more people are allowed. ask."

"However," one of them said quickly, fearing that he would be killed, "I know that there is a cousin of mine in one of the teams."

Yan Ruyu asked again: "What military order did you get?"

"..." The two of them lowered their heads, feeling unable to speak.

Seeing Huo Changhe's blood-stained boot tips walking into them, he was excited and said quickly: "Yes... it means, let us kill people, seize food, and massacre villages."

Huo Changhe felt like there was an angry dragon hidden in his chest, struggling to rush out, wishing he could tear them into pieces.

"Your Majesty, take them back first," Yan Ruyu whispered, "keep them as witnesses and have them sign and sign."

Huo Changhe also had the same intention. Although he was angry, he did not lose his mind. Only a witness could testify against Shen Huaixin, lest Shen Huaixin deny it.

Yan Ruyu handed two pills to Li Jingyao: "Brother, please let them take it."

Li Jingyao took it. The pills were small and white, and had no smell. He didn't know what they were made of.

The two people didn't want to eat, knowing that it was definitely not good food, but they couldn't help but not eat. Li Jingyao directly removed their mandibles and threw the pills into their mouths.

The bitter and astringent taste filled the mouth. The two frowned and wanted to curl their lips, but couldn't move their jaws.

Just leave it like this, so as not to let them leak the news.

Huo Changhe asked Li Jingyao: "Do you have any other place to stay here?"

"Nothing."

"Okay, I'll take you to see Wen Zhiyan. Your people can be placed there, wherever you want."

Li Jingyao thought for a moment: "I'll go see Zhiyan first, and then I'll join you. I'm a stranger, so I might be able to help."

Now that he is here and involved, there is no reason to stand by and watch. The couple helped his water village a lot before.

"Then I'm not polite," Huo Changhe said with cupped hands, "To the outside world, you are Yu'er's adopted brother. Due to family troubles, you were rescued by Yu'er. In order to repay your kindness, you are regarded as your adopted sister."

Li Jingyao: "..." Before, he was wondering why Yan Ruyu called him brother, but Huo Changhe didn't say anything, so he was waiting here.

He is a sworn brother, not a cousin, which means there is absolutely no suspicion of gossip or love between men and women.

Anyone who has some conscience and some sense of shame should remember the great grace of saving his life and not touch his adopted sister's thoughts.

Li Jingyao smiled helplessly: "Follow the prince's arrangements."

Yan Ruyu didn't understand the mystery and didn't pay attention to these details. She watched Li Jingyao call his men in and put the two men on their horses.

They left the small village and headed straight towards the manor where Guang and the others were.

Yan Ruyu looked back and saw that the winter sun shone lazily on the small village. The village was quiet and peaceful. The villagers must have had no idea that they had escaped a disaster.

……

At the same time, in the city.

A group of beggars lined up and came forward one by one to receive roast chicken and steamed buns.

Each person has a portion, and after receiving it, he respectfully calls out: "Brother Biao."

Abbot Sangbiao put on his old cotton jacket and trousers again. They looked old, but in fact they were very warm inside. He had big felt shoes on his feet, which made him comfortable and light.

The old beggar who helped before was also free this time, helping him stabilize order and lay hands on others.

"Today is the first day. I will post for five days in a row until I break the fifth day. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I will post another day."

The abbot was so generous that the beggars cheered.

"Brother Biao, we will hang out with you from now on!"

"That's right, Brother Biao, take us to beg for food!"

"We listen to you!"

"You ask us to go to Dongcheng, but we will never go to West Street."

The abbot stroked his beard and smiled: "I really have something that I want to ask you for help with."

"Brother Biao, you said, as long as we can do it."

The abbot took out two paintings from his arms and handed them to the old beggar: "Pass them around so they can see them and engrave the people in these paintings in their minds."

After the beggars finished circulating, the abbot waved, and they immediately gathered around.

"Help me find the people in this painting. It is said that they are near Dongcheng, but they are cunning and may not be only in Dongcheng."

"They have a grudge against me for killing my father and seizing my wife. I came here from somewhere else just to find them! Brothers, just feel free to look for them. I keep my word. I'll cover the food for these days!"

"If anyone can help me find it, I'll let him eat meat buns for a year."

The beggars' eyes were lit up. They felt the same hatred for him and cheered for Meat Bun.

"Brother Biao, don't worry, we will do our best to find you!"

"Turn over Youcheng, and we will find it for you too."

The abbot pressed his hand down and whispered: "You must act secretly and don't make any noise. If the news is leaked and alerted, I will not be able to avenge you, and you may be in danger."

Everyone's expressions immediately became solemn.

"Brother Biao, don't worry," the old beggar said with cupped hands, "these people I found are all my people. They are smart, quick-thinking, and strict with their mouths. They will never say anything that shouldn't be said."

Everyone else nodded: "Yes, Uncle Gan'er is right."

The old beggar had a bamboo pole wrapped in starch in his hand. He had used it for many years, so many beggars called him "Uncle pole."

The abbot saluted them: "Okay, then I will rely on you."
