Chapter 128 A Woman in Black Appears in the Woods
Xiao Yujing gathered his troops and led the officers and soldiers back into the city. When the people who had wanted to riot saw them leave, their anxious hearts finally relaxed.
It was because of this relaxation that many people saw the bodies of their loved ones on the ground, ran forward with red eyes and started crying.
Jiang Nanyuan and Yue Li also checked the people on the ground. Some of them were confirmed dead, while some were not yet dead. Jiang Nanyuan and Yue Li treated their wounds together. No matter how serious the injuries were, with Jiang Nanyuan's life-saving pills, their lives were temporarily saved.
Li Wei also took a few guards and members of the Lin family to drag those who were confirmed dead on the ground into the woods and bury them.
It took two hours for everyone to finish the work. When everyone was done and just sat down to rest, some of the people who were still there knelt down in front of Li Wei and Xiao Yuchen.
"Thank you both for saving us."
They saw what happened just now. Although they didn't know what Xiao Yuchen's identity was, it was always right for them to call him "sir". They couldn't imagine why an sir who was so kind to the people would be a criminal.
"Ahem, everyone, listen to me." Li Wei stood up and stretched out his hand for everyone to be quiet. He had just made it clear that he would stand on Xiao Yuchen's side in the future. Thinking of what Xiao Yuchen would do in the future, he also wanted to say something good about him.
After hearing Li Wei's words, everyone looked towards him, and remained silent, waiting to see what he was going to say.
"The person in front of you is the Ninth Prince. The food and herbs you have eaten these days were brought back by the Ninth Prince. If you want to express your gratitude, thank the Ninth Prince."
After Li Wei said this, many people who had not knelt down before now knelt down towards Xiao Yuchen, "Thank you, Ninth Prince." Everyone knelt down and kowtowed to Xiao Yuchen to express their gratitude.
At that time, Xiao Yujing also entered the city with a large army. When Sun Qifa learned the news, he had already been waiting at the city gate with the yamen runners. When Xiao Yujing saw Sun Qifa, he immediately asked him about Jiang Nanfeng's situation.
Ever since Sun Qifa had his penis cut off last time, he has been recuperating in the mansion. He has no idea about what is happening outside, and he doesn't even care. He is completely unaware of Jiang Nanfeng's disappearance.
He had no answer to Xiao Yujing's words. He caught a glimpse of his murderous eyes and wiped the sweat from his forehead guiltily.
He hesitated, not knowing what to say.
"Second Prince, I know." At this moment, a voice came from behind the crowd, and Xiao Yujing turned his head and looked behind him.
Li Qiang squeezed through the crowd and raised his hand, "Second Prince, Jiang Nanfeng is missing. Not only him, but also his two younger brothers and his mother have all disappeared."
During the previous fight, Li Qiang had been hiding in the corner. Later, when the second prince left, he immediately followed the second prince.
When he heard his question, he just happened to know the answer, so he squeezed over regardless.
Xiao Yujing looked at Li Qiang and saw that he was wearing the official uniform of a prisoner escort. His cold gaze fell on him, "Oh? Why did they disappear?"
When Li Qiang heard Xiao Yujing's question, he immediately told the second prince what happened that day. When everyone heard that he had suddenly mutated and disappeared, they all showed contempt on their faces.
Because in their hearts, they felt that what Li Qiang said was too fake. If they wanted to get close to the second prince, they had to find a reliable reason. This reason was not true at all when they thought about it carefully.
Seeing that everyone was a little bit unconvinced, Li Qiang immediately added, "Second Prince, I was not the only one who saw what happened that day. If you don't believe me, you can ask Luo Yurou. She also saw it with her own eyes. What she said can't be false."
Xiao Yujing thought so too. This time he came here to help Luo Feng bring Luo Yurou back.
He winked at the soldier beside him. The soldier received Xiao Yujing's wink, nodded, and immediately went to bring Luo Yurou over.
Seeing Xiao Yujing, Luo Yurou couldn't help crying.
Xiao Yujing asked her about Jiang Nanfeng, and when he saw that what she said was the same as what Li Qiang said, he believed it.
"I'll take her away. You go back and watch over them. If they behave in any unusual way, report it immediately."
Hearing Xiao Yujing's order, Li Qiang immediately agreed. The Second Prince ordered him to keep an eye on Xiao Yuchen and the others. Wasn't that considered a way of using him? Maybe he could even give him an official position in the future.
Li Qiang walked back, thinking happily.
After returning to the place, he kept his eyes on Li Wei and the others, thinking that if they did anything unreasonable, he would tell the second prince immediately.
That night, after everyone fell asleep, Li Wei opened his eyes and looked around. Seeing that almost everyone was asleep, he headed towards the woods.
When he reached the depths of the forest, he saw someone waiting for him there. He immediately went down to his side and bowed, "Ninth Prince."
"Well, can your confidants in the Imperial Guard of the Capital be trusted?"
"Trustworthy." Li Wei was confident about the soldiers he brought with him. Even if they betrayed the emperor, they would definitely not betray him.
When Xiao Yuchen heard the news, the corners of his mouth curled up and he took a few steps closer to Li Wei. "Send a message back to them. If Xiao Yujing wants to recruit them, ask them to agree first and report back if there is any news in time."
Xiao Yujing was definitely going to file a complaint when he returned this time. Li Wei's position as the commander of the Imperial Guards was likely to be lost. But it didn't matter. The soldiers of the Imperial Guards were all selected by him personally. As long as he said they were trustworthy, then they were truly trustworthy.
"Yes, does the Ninth Prince have any other instructions?"
Xiao Yuchen shook his head. This time he came to tell him this matter. After everything was said, he asked Li Wei to leave first. After he left for a while, just as he was about to leave, he heard the sound of leaves rustling in the woods.
Is there anyone in the woods?
When Xiao Yuchen heard the sound, he immediately became alert and looked towards the source of the sound.
After a while, a woman in black appeared in front of him.
Xiao Yuchen looked at the man carefully. He didn't recognize him. "Who are you? Why are you here?"
The woman in black chuckled when she heard what Xiao Yuchen said, and then replied in a very charming voice: "Don't be angry, young master, it doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I can cure the poison in your body. How about we make a deal?
I'll help you get rid of the poison in your body, how about you promise me one thing?"
Xiao Yuchen frowned slightly. She could tell at a glance that he was poisoned. Suddenly, a person's name appeared in his mind.
Could it be that she is Amuyi?
