Chapter 161: Beauty Trap



He found himself lying in a thatched hut.

Just as I was about to stand up, my lower body and legs felt unbearable pain, and cold sweat broke out on my forehead.

Seeing his knees wrapped in thick white cloth, he lay down with difficulty.

A tall figure appeared in the thatched hut, carrying a basin of water.

Seeing him wake up, the woman came to the bed anxiously, took out a handkerchief, wiped his sweat, and told him how she saved him.

"Just call me Lingyu. I found you at the foot of the mountain while I was fishing."

"Your legs must have been broken when you fell from the cliff above."

Lingyu has bright and deep eyes, a high nose bridge, fair skin and a slim figure.

Her chest was high, and as she moved closer, those two soft lumps seemed about to jump out.

Seeing this in the eyes of the hot-blooded Tao Zipeng, his body stiffened and his face turned red.

He clenched his hands into fists at his sides, and used his great self-control to prevent his nose from bleeding.

If Tao Yuwei were here, she would be shocked and horrified.

The situation that her cousin, who she had been thinking about all the time, would bring a woman back to Beijing had changed.

The woman mentioned in the original plot is now guarding her eldest brother's bed.

She must have exclaimed what a beautiful woman trap.

"I've already bandaged you. If you want to treat your leg, you'll need to rush to the county town. This place is remote, so I'll try to get you into town tomorrow."

Lingyu put down the basin, sat down beside the bed, picked up the handkerchief and naturally and generously helped Tao Zipeng wipe the sweat off his forehead.

She bent down to wash the towel, then helped him wipe his face and hands.

Tao Zipeng's ears turned red as if dripping blood.

"It's okay... You don't have to do this."

This girl was a little too enthusiastic.

He dodged.

Lingyu had no choice but to stop and walked out of the thatched hut with the basin.

Not far from the house is a small lake.

Near the edge of the lake, the ground was covered with small stones.

Located on the edge of the pebbles, close to the mountains, and at the top of the mountains, is the official road.

Tao Zipeng fell from the official road above.

It was his bad luck that he didn't fall into the lake, but fell onto some pebbles out of thin air.

Fortunately, there was a big tree trunk at the foot of the mountain that temporarily caught him while he was falling, giving him a chance to cushion his fall.

Otherwise, he would have been crippled.

Lingyu poured out the water in the basin, but did not choose to go into the house. Instead, he walked to a distance from the thatched hut and looked around cautiously.

After finding no suspicious person, she looked up at the sky...

On another mountain path high in the mountains.

A group of fast horses came galloping over. They were dressed in plain clothes and held big swords in their hands.

Yan Qingci, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards who was in charge of searching for Tao Zipeng's cousins, rode at full speed all night and finally arrived at the place where Tao Zipeng and his cousins were ambushed.

"Everyone, carefully search for General Tao and Young Master Wu. We must find them."

Yan Qingci and the others had no time to rest. At a command, everyone dispersed and started looking for people.

At this moment, in the General's Mansion in the capital.

"Princess Anle, how did you know in advance that someone would harm Imperial Physician Cao?"

At Xiao Lichen's suggestion, Heiyan asked Tao Yuwei question after question. In the end, she had lost her patience.

"This princess guessed it."

[Of course, I'm just guessing based on the actual situation. I'm not a know-it-all.]

Seeing that she was already very impatient, Xiao Lichen glanced at Hei Yan.

Hei Yan finally stopped asking her questions.

It was at this time that a Xiaoyu Guard rode hurriedly to the gate of the General's Mansion.

He jumped off his horse, holding a long sword in his hand, and rushed into the mansion anxiously.

"Your Excellency, I just received news from the Heavenly Prison that Concubine Huo has died of poisoning."

The visitor stopped outside the pavilion and bowed.

"What? Concubine Huo died of poisoning?"

Tao Yuwei stood up suddenly from the stone stool in shock, slammed her hands on the stone table, and her eyes widened.
