The other servants and warriors drew their swords and slashed straight at Xiao Yanchu.

"Protect the Prince!" An Yi shouted, and the soldiers of Da Chu dismounted and drew their swords to confront the warriors of the Shogunate.

Su Ruojin and Yan Luo retreated to the side under the protection of Huanzhi and Huanqing.

Su Ruojin looked at the sky, picked up a leaf from the ground and threw it into the air, a smile playing on her lips.

She yelled, "Everyone put on masks!"

Su Ruojin spoke the language of Da Chu, which the Yamato people couldn't understand. They only saw the Da Chu people who were fighting them suddenly take out masks and put them on for no apparent reason, which they found very strange.

Do all these people from the Great Chu wear masks when they fight?

Even Xiao Yanchu, who was facing off against Deyi Kangren, took out a mask and put it on.

Before Tokuyoshi Yasuhito could even react to what this meant, he saw the shogunate's samurai suddenly slow down.

On the battlefield, a moment's slowness is tantamount to revealing a weakness, and one will be instantly killed or knocked unconscious by the people of Chu.

One by one, the people of the shogunate were slowly falling down.

Deyi Kangren looked up at Su Ruojin in horror, only to see that she had somehow gotten up and was standing on the high wall of the courtyard, holding a medicine bottle in her hand.

Powder appeared to be floating out of the mouth of the medicine bottle.

Deyi Xinwu, who had been protected from the beginning, also saw this scene. He finally understood why these people from Da Chu were wearing masks and hurriedly shouted, "She's using poison! Quickly cover your mouth and nose!"

But it was too late; the shogunate's people had all inhaled some of the powder.

Those closer to Su Ruojin inhaled more of the powder, and their bodies froze for a moment—that one moment was enough to kill them on the spot.

Those who were further away inhaled less of the powder and only felt slightly dizzy, their movements were somewhat affected, and they were immediately knocked to the ground and passed out.

Soon, the situation on the battlefield reversed.

Seeing that things were not going well, Tokugi Shingo immediately shouted, "Retreat! Retreat back to the mansion first!"

Deyi Kangren also saw this unexpected turn of events, and his men were filled with fear; morale was low.

He gritted his teeth and, under the protection of the servants, returned to the mansion.

Everything happened outside the shogunate gates, and it would have been easy for Tokugi Yasuhito's men to retreat back inside.

Soon, apart from the dead and unconscious samurai and servants, the rest of the shogunate staff retreated back to the shogunate.

Then the door was tightly closed.

Looking at the tightly closed gate, Xiao Yanchu calmly ordered, "An Yi, take stock of our casualties and treat the wounded."

"yes!"

Xiao Yanchu leaped onto the wall and stood with Su Ruojin on the high wall, looking at the mess at the entrance of the shogunate.

"Is there enough time?"

"That should be enough."

*

Upon entering the shogunate, Tokuyoshi Yasuhito threw down his long sword, kicked over the table, and kept cursing, "Bastard!"

Tokugi Yasuhito never imagined that he would be beaten so badly at the gates of his own shogunate that he would have to retreat back inside.

Compared to Tokugi Yasuhito's fury, Tokugi Shingo was much calmer.

He advised, "General, don't panic. This time we underestimated the enemy and overlooked Su Ruojin's medical skills. We didn't expect her to be able to use poison on the battlefield."

"Su Ruojin, that despicable and shameless woman!" At this moment, Deyi Kangren had completely given up the idea of ​​taking Su Ruojin as a concubine; he only wanted to kill her.

"General, she can only use the same move once at most. Once we are on guard, this move will fail."

Hearing his uncle's words, Deyi Kangren gradually calmed down.

Yes, the people of Da Chu were fine when they wore masks before, so if his people wear masks next time, what can Su Ruojin do to them?

"General, don't forget, the Princess of Great Chu and the Crown Prince are still in our hands."

Deyi Kangren's eyes turned fierce. "Men, bring the Princess of Da Chu here. I want to see if Su Ruojin still wants her younger sister's life!"

He would make Su Ruojin kneel before him and beg for mercy!
