God-given peasant wife's good fortune

Chapter 741 Lost Use Value

[-]

Ruth learned that Su Kefang had returned to Mudcastle City, and found the palace at noon the next day.

"Second princess, why did you come back?" Lu Si said hastily as soon as he entered the hall, walking up to Su Ke without even sitting down.

"Lu Si, speak slowly if you have something to say." Ge Yan said.

Before Ruth came over, no matter how she asked, she refused to say that there was something urgent, and Ge Yan didn't know what Ruth was anxious about?
"This matter cannot be delayed!"

Ruth seemed to have forgotten that Su Kefang didn't understand Duwa Mandarin at all, so he said a lot to Su Kefang, which made Su Kefang feel confused.

"Sister, what did Ruth say?" Su Kefang could see that Ruth was in a hurry.

"She said that two of the herbs you gave her last time were dead, and the rest were half-dead. She wanted you to see if there was any way to revive those herbs?" Only then did Ge Yan know why Ruth The few times I came to the palace, I didn't tell her about it, because only Fang'er knew about saving herbs.

After Ge Yan finished his statement, he asked with concern: "Fang'er, are you sure you can save those herbs?"

The reason why they were able to win over Ruth was all because of those herbs. If those herbs couldn't save him, Ruth might turn his back on it. This was what Ge Yan was really worried about.

Su Kefang pondered for a while, glanced at Xiang Zirun, and said with Ge Yan: "I'll go back to the house and get ready, and go over with her to have a look."

Hearing that Su Kefang was willing to go back and watch with him, Luth stabilized his mood and sat on a chair beside him, waiting for Su Kefang.

Su Kefang and Xiang Zirun quickly returned to the hall, and upon seeing them, Lu Si stood up and said, "Let's go."

Ge Yan originally wanted to go out, and wanted Barry to act as an interpreter, but he was worried that Barry's mouth would accidentally leak the secret, so he first went to Lu Si's house with Su Kefang and Xiang Zirun.

A few blocks away from Lu Si's courtyard, Lu Si reined in his horse fiercely, silently gestured to Su Kefang and the others for a pause, and Shuang Zhi patrolled the surroundings vigilantly.

"What's wrong?" Su Kefang frowned.

With her vigilance and keen hearing, if there is an ambush, it is impossible to hide it from her.

"I don't know." Ge Yan also tensed up and looked around.

Xiang Zirun glanced at Lu Si suspiciously, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

He, his wife, and the hidden guards around him didn't notice anything unusual. Did this Ruth play tricks or did he really notice something abnormal around him?

"Go and have a look." Ge Yan ordered to a female guard beside her.

"Wait a moment!"

As soon as Ge Yan finished speaking, Lu Si called urgently, but it was too late, the female guard had already walked forward, but just a few steps away, they saw several hidden arrows shooting at them in unison.

"careful!"

Xiang Zirun yelled, and flew towards his daughter-in-law, took her into his arms to protect her, and at the same time drew out the soft sword at his waist to sweep away the flying arrows in the dark.

The faces of Lu Si and Ge Yan, who were also on horseback, also changed drastically. Ge Yan drew his sword and knocked out the stabbing arrows coming towards him, while Lu Si was very good at making poison, but he knew how to use fists and kicks. Jumping off the horse, he wanted to use the horse's body to block the arrow.

"There are organs on the ground!"

The moment Ruth's feet landed on the ground, Xiang Zirun suddenly noticed the clue and shouted.

In the blink of an eye, a black shadow flew out and lifted Ruth's back collar.

Ruth was startled, killing intent was revealed in his eyes, and he was about to flick between his two fingers, when he suddenly found that the ground, which was intact a second ago, suddenly collapsed, and what he saw was a row of black knife points.

Ruth's expression froze, and then he realized that the black shadow who had mentioned him had saved his life, and his heart was filled with surprise.

"It's one of our own!" Ge Yan had time to explain to Lu Si after all the arrows in the back fell.

Ruth didn't understand what Xiang Zirun was yelling just now, seeing the black shadow put himself on the floor next to the mechanism and then left instantly, and the faces of Xiang Zirun and the others didn't change, so he vaguely guessed that The black shadow might belong to the palace or Xiang Zirun.

Xiang Zirun stared at the sharp knife point in the dense forest in that mechanism, narrowed his deep eagle-like eyes slightly, and said, "How did you notice the strangeness just now?"

Xiang Zirun was asking Lu Si, if he hadn't been on guard just now, all of them would have been killed by the knife point.

Even if Xiang Zirun didn't ask, Ge Yan would.

Ruth's face was very ugly: "Since I agreed to the conditions of the second princess, various assassinations and assassinations have continued. If I am not vigilant enough, ten lives may not be enough to die."

Ruth offended a lot of people in this line of work. The reason why only a few people attacked her before was because many people behind her thought that she was still valuable and would not allow anyone to hurt her. Later, she reached an agreement with Su Kefang. The agreement has lost its use value for those people, and of course they will no longer care about her life and death, and some of them even personally tried to get rid of her.

Of course, there are also remnants of the previous dynasty.

In fact, Ruth guessed that such a day would come when she agreed to Su Kefang's request, so she took precautions and escaped no less than dozens of plots during this period.

She will be very careful every time she goes out of the house. The reason why she noticed something strange earlier than Su Kefang and others this time is because the alley she walks is rarely visited by people on weekdays except for the holidays. A few very concealed silk threads were drawn in the middle of the alley, and the ground was also marked. If one or two people passed by, these silk threads could not all be taken away.

Ruth rode at the front just now. As soon as she entered the alley, she found that all the silk threads she had pulled in the alley were gone, and the marks on the ground had also changed. She thought it was an ambush in the alley, but she didn't expect that the other party actually In this short period of time, the trap was set up in the alley. Presumably, the other party had noticed that she used this alley every time she went in and out, and made preparations in advance.

Soon, the hidden guard sent by Xiang Zirun to check appeared again: "Master, there is no ambush."

"It seems that the other party is still afraid of Ruth." Xiang Zirun pulled the corner of his lower lip contemptuously.

The other party is obviously a coward, and he ran away after setting up a trap. If the other party was brave enough and cruel enough, Ruth would be peeled off even if he didn't die this time. If the other party knew what kind of opportunity they missed, I don't know. Will you feel so regretful that your intestines will turn green?

Su Kefang frowned and looked at Lu Si with a dignified face, and asked, "Lu Si, it seems that the other party is afraid of your poison. Are you sure that you can avoid their plots every time?"

Fortunately, Xiang Zirun, who is familiar with the mechanism, was there this time, otherwise Ruth might have died just now!

Ge Yan asked Lu Si the exact words of Su Kefang, then pursed her lips and looked at her, waiting for her answer.

She had previously proposed to let Ruth move into the palace, but Ruth did not agree. This time, she brushed shoulders with death. I wonder if she will change her mind?
