Chapter 401 Convinced by Her
"Princess, the poisonous smoke from these grasses is really strong. These people were clearly covered with scarves, but they still fainted all of a sudden."
Qingyi came over and talked to Fu Zhaoning.
Fu Zhaoning glanced at the masks covering the faces of the secret guards and said, "These can't protect against poisonous fumes. They will still be inhaled. After you have packed up, come over and let me take a look, just in case."
See if they will be poisoned or injured.
Detoxification pills are not 100% guaranteed to be effective.
"Thank you, Princess."
After dealing with these people, Fu Zhaoning took their pulses.
Xiao Lanyuan led them to repair the broken stone bridge.
After Fu Zhaoning checked everyone, he watched them work.
Although Xiao Lanyuan did not do the work himself, he first checked all the scattered stone slabs and stone pillars, looked at the various traces left on them, marked their locations, and directed them to build the bridge.
"This piece of stone slab is a bit cracked. Find another one to replace it. Also, the original location of the stone pier is a bit loose. Go down to the river first to level the bottom and move it a little bit."
Fu Zhaoning sat on a rock nearby and watched them work.
Fortunately, this is just a very simple stone slab bridge without any carvings, and the river is narrow, so it only needs to be stable and has no special shape, otherwise they would not have been able to build it.
But it is just a bridge after all, and many people are basically at a loss as to where to start when they see it.
Some people find that the structures they build are not stable and they can only use them as is.
Under Xiao Lanyuan's command, the bridge was rebuilt in an hour, making it wider and more stable than before.
The carriage drove on as if it were a flat road, steady and stable.
"How are you going to deal with these people?" Fu Zhaoning looked at the secret guards.
There are about twenty people, all of whom are the emperor's subordinates. No one knows how Xiao Lanyuan will deal with them.
We can't just deal with all of these people like the Queen's Gui Xiaozhuang, right? If we attack the Emperor's people, it is very likely that the Emperor will be furious and do whatever he wants.
They can accuse you of rebellion at any time.
"Let them sleep here until they wake up naturally."
Xiao Lanyuan also glanced at those people.
He knew that these people were the secret guards hired by the emperor. If they were all killed, the emperor would vomit blood and then bite him madly in rage.
If we let them all fend for themselves here now, they will be seriously injured. When the emperor finds out, he will have no choice but to swallow his anger.
"Sleep until you wake up naturally?"
Fu Zhaoning couldn't help but want to laugh. This statement seemed a bit immoral to use here.
"You've worked hard, take a rest, the journey ahead should be much smoother."
Xiao Lanyuan handed her a soft pillow.
"Aren't you going back to your carriage?" Fu Zhaoning actually wanted to go into the pharmacy, but she couldn't go in because Xiao Lanyuan was sitting there.
Xiao Lanyuan looked at her and said, "No."
Huh?
This made her a little confused.
Didn't you avoid her before? Why did you change your mind now?
"You sleep for a while, we will go to Beijing soon." Xiao Lanyuan said again.
They are about to enter the capital, so are they going to pretend to be a loving couple again?
Fu Zhaoning was too lazy to say more. Since she couldn't enter the pharmacy, she just hugged her soft pillow and started to sleep.
Xiao Lanyuan looked at her for a long time, then leaned aside and closed his eyes.
The rest of the journey was much calmer.
When they were getting closer to the capital, more people gathered around, and some of them were there to investigate. Knowing that they could not hide it from Prince Jun, they did not hide anything.
Some were even bold enough to come up and say hello.
"Where is Prince Jun coming back from? He has been away from Beijing for several months."
Xiao Lanyuan heard the question in the carriage and remained silent.
"Who?" Fu Zhaoning asked him in a low voice.
"From the sound of his voice, it's the eldest son of Wang Ge's family." Xiao Lanyuan also answered in a low voice.
When Fu Zhaoning heard the name Wang Ge Lao, something suddenly flashed through his memory.
Mr. Wang is an old man who doesn't cultivate himself.
Miss Fu had heard that Xiao Yanjing had gone to a certain mountain temple, and she wanted to follow him, thinking that burning incense in that mountain temple was very effective, and hoped that the Buddha would bless her grandfather to recover soon.
But she was deceived by those playboys who followed Xiao Yanjing. When she was halfway there, she met a few people and asked them about it. After realizing that she was deceived, she immediately turned around and prepared to go back.
It was raining at that time.
A carriage drove up from behind, and the people in the carriage asked her to take a ride.
The person in the carriage is Lord Wang.
Fu Zhaoning didn't know him at that time and thought he was an old man who looked kind, but she also knew to avoid suspicion, so she said she could just sit outside with the driver.
As a result, Lord Wang insisted on letting her get into the carriage.
In the carriage, he kept looking at her, and after a while he actually said to her, if Prince Xiao doesn't want to marry you, you can also consider following me, I can at least ensure that you will have food and clothing.
Ugh!
When Miss Fu heard this, she kicked him, stopped the carriage, and jumped out and ran away.
Now when he heard the name of Lord Wang, this memory suddenly came to his mind and Fu Zhaoning's face turned dark.
"Is Lord Wang's son the same as him?" Fu Zhaoning asked.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Lanyuan's eyes narrowed slightly. But he still answered without leaving any trace, "Although not as shameless as Lord Wang, but not much better. The chances of good bamboo shoots growing out of bad bamboo are not high."
"Understood."
It’s not a good thing.
They were resting near a tea stall beside the official road, but they just let the horses eat some grass and take a rest; no one got off the carriage.
It was at this time that this Wang Dalang came over.
"Prince Jun is in the carriage, right? Prince Jun, why don't you answer? I just came here to say hello to Prince Jun."
Qing Yi came back with some tea and was about to chase the man away when Fu Zhaoning's voice was heard from the carriage.
"Who the hell do you think you are? Just because you come over to say hello, we have to answer you? Do you know how noisy you are? Your voice is like sharpening a knife, very unpleasant."
Wang Dalang did not expect that a female voice was heard in the carriage, but he immediately realized that the voice should be Princess Jun Fu Zhaoning.
He was a little annoyed for a moment.
Because in the eyes of these people, Fu Zhaoning was nothing before, just an ant. Even though she is now Princess Jun, he still feels very unhappy when he hears her say this about him.
So Wang Dalang just responded coldly.
"I'm talking to Prince Jun!"
"Who are you in the royal family?"
"My father is Lord Wang."
"Oh, your father is from the royal family?"
"My father is the prime minister of the current dynasty!" Wang Dalang was so angry that his mind was not clear.
"Is the son of the current cabinet minister so great? You stopped Prince Jun's carriage and asked him to come out and answer all your questions?" Fu Zhaoning laughed sarcastically, "You are just saying hello. If you don't know better, you might think you want Prince Jun to get off the carriage and salute you."
