Chapter 219: The Women of Prince Kang's Mansion



This time, Shang Yuanshan didn't say anything and directly fired the hidden weapon from his sleeve, which made Lu Mubai retreat repeatedly.

Shang Yuanshan knew that he was real now and there was no way to keep the great wizard for interrogation. Moreover, with Lu Mubai here, it would be difficult for him to kill the great wizard, but he also didn't want Lu Mubai to take him away so easily.

Shang Yuanshan fired several hidden weapons again, originally aiming at Lu Mubai, but actually shooting towards Jiang Binqing.

Several hidden weapons shot at Jiang Binqing, who was in unconsciousness, causing his body to tremble a few times, but he was still unconscious and did not wake up.

Seeing this, Lu Mubai didn't bother to argue any further. He jumped up, picked up Jiang Binqing from the ground, and left the mansion under the protection of the man in black behind him.

Shang Yuanshan led his men to chase after him, but did not fight to the death. Seeing that Lu Mubai had almost run away, he ordered everyone to retreat.

Shang Yangyang ran to Shang Yuanshan. "Dad, you are not hurt, right?"

"We are sorry to worry about you, but Daddy is fine."

"Daddy is awesome."

After hearing this, Shang Yuanshan's fatigue instantly disappeared.

Inside the Prince Kang's Palace

Lu Mubai looked at Jiang Binqing, who was still unconscious on the bed with bruises all over his body.

"Go call the court doctor."

A moment later, the court doctor arrived. After checking Jiang Binqing's pulse, he frowned. "Your Highness, this young master has suffered serious internal injuries and seems to have been poisoned."

"Poisoned?" Lu Mubai thought of Shang Yuanshan's last few hidden weapons, and handed them to the court doctor. "Take a look, is this the poison on the hidden weapon?"

The court doctor took the hidden weapon and examined it for a while, then nodded. "These poisons are fatal on contact with blood. It seems that this young master took the antidote beforehand, otherwise he would have died long ago."

Lu Mubai nodded. "Go get the medicine."

"Yes." The court doctor withdrew and went to get medicine for Jiang Binqing.

Wang Liang came running outside. "Your Majesty, Lord Shang is leading people with the portrait of the great wizard to arrest people on the street."

Lu Mubai frowned. He didn't expect that the great wizard didn't help him take over the Marquis' Mansion, and he was seriously injured in the end and is now wanted.

"The whole government is on high alert."

"yes."

Lu Mubai cast a vicious gaze at the bed. He stood there thinking for a long time, but finally stopped the murderous intent in his heart.

"I hope you can be useful." Lu Mubai turned around and left the room where Jiang Binqing was.

Two hours later, the unconscious Jiang Binqing woke up with a burst of pain. The moment he sat up, he felt something sliding down his throat, and he was choking.

"What is that?" Jiang Binqing endured the pain in his body and got down from the ground. He went to the table and poured himself a glass of water and drank it all in one gulp.

He found that the place he was in seemed to be the guest room arranged for him by Lu Mubai.

The servant guarding outside heard the sound and pushed the door open. "Mr. Jiang, you're awake. I'll have someone bring the medicine over right away."

Jiang Binqing nodded.

Soon a servant brought the medicine. Jiang Binqing put the medicine bowl under his nose and smelled it. He knew that this was medicine that could cure his internal injuries.

He drank the medicine in one gulp. "Ask your prince to come over."

"Little one, I'll pass the message on right away."

A moment later, Lu Mubai came. He sat directly opposite Jiang Binqing without saying a word.

Jiang Binqing: "You saved me?"

"Um."

Jiang Binqing nodded. "Okay, I owe you a favor. From now on, if you need anything that doesn't require leverage, I will definitely help you."

"Then I won't be polite. I will definitely trouble the great wizard if I have any problems in the future."

Seeing Lu Mubai being so straightforward, Jiang Binqing nodded with satisfaction.

Lu Mubai asked the question in his heart: "Great Wizard, how could you be seriously injured by Shang Yuanshan?"

Jiang Binqing was furious when he thought of this. He didn't believe that a child had hurt him, but gave a reasonable explanation for the incident. "My poison had no effect on them, and the people behind them had seriously injured me."

Lu Mubai: "Can the great wizard see that person?"

Jiang Binqing shook his head: "No, that man attacked from the dark. His internal strength is very strong. You and I are no match for him."

Lu Mubai frowned. If he did as Jiang Binqing said, how would he take action against the Marquis' Mansion in the future? How would he ascend to the throne if the Marquis' Mansion did not get rid of him?

Lu Mubai suddenly remembered something: "But that's not right. When I brought people to rescue you, that person didn't make a move."

Jiang Binqing lowered his head and thought for a moment before analyzing, "Could it be that this person has some restrictions on what he can do?"

Lu Mubai nodded after hearing this. "It's very likely."

"Your Highness, something bad has happened." Wang Liang ran in from outside.

Lu Mubai asked coldly: "What's wrong?"

"Lord Shang is leading his men to search every household for someone, and they will soon be at the palace."

Lu Mubai frowned. He didn't expect Shang Yuanshan to move so quickly.

Jiang Binqing: "It looks like Shang Yuanshan won't give up until he catches me."

Lu Mubai looked at Wang Liang: "Is the city gate closed?"

Wang Liang replied: "No, the city gates are only under martial law, and everyone entering and leaving needs to have their identity checked."

"Please King Kang, take me out of the city."

"Great wizard, you are injured."

Jiang Binqing looked out the window: "It doesn't matter. I can't leave Southern Xinjiang for too long. I should go back."

Lu Mubai stood up and walked out: "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

"Thank you, King Kang."

A moment later, several carriages left from the back door of Prince Kang's Mansion. At the same time, Shang Yuanshan had brought his men to Prince Kang's Mansion.

Shang Yuanshan led his men into the palace.

Lu Mubai walked out and said, "Lord Shang, this is the second time you have brought people to my house. What can I do for you, Lord Shang?"

"Today, the Marquis' Mansion encountered an assassin. This person is good at using poisonous insects. I suspect he is a spy sent by the Southern Border Kingdom. So after reporting to the emperor, I received orders to search the entire capital. I also ask King Kang to cooperate."

Lu Mubai suddenly realized: "So that's how it is. I heard that today is not the day when the Shang prince and the daughter of the Shen family are getting married? How did they get assassinated? Is the mansion okay?"

"It was discovered in time, so it's nothing serious."

"That's good, that's good. My Lord, please quickly bring people to help me check the palace. What do you think I should do if this person from Southern Xinjiang also wants to assassinate me? My Lord, you must catch him as soon as possible."

"Don't worry, Your Highness." Shang Yuanshan led people to search the palace. When they searched Lu Mubai's study, he found that Lu Mubai behind him looked a little nervous.

Shang Yuanshan curiously picked up a book from the bookshelf and said casually: "King Kang, you still like to read these books."

Lu Mubai stepped forward and took the book from Shang Yuanshan. "Just killing time when I'm bored."

"Very good, very good." After searching the study, Shang Yuanshan led his men out of Lu Mubai's yard and continued searching the palace.

When the palace was almost searched, Shang Yuanshan pointed to the courtyard that people had been deliberately avoiding. "Prince Kang has only left that courtyard unchecked."

Lu Mubai: "That courtyard is not very convenient. There are the women of the palace over there. It will be inconvenient for you, Lord Shang, to go in."

Shang Yuanshan raised his lips when he heard this. "Don't worry, King Kang. I have thought it through very carefully. In order not to miss any possibility and to avoid ruining the reputation of the ladies of the various mansions, I specially brought a group of female officials out of the palace.

Since they are the women of Prince Kang's palace, let them search them."
