The Path of the Pharmacist's Favorite Concubine

Chapter 171
As soon as the six ice needles came out, they pierced the big hole on the chest of the man in black with lightning speed. The speed of her ice needles was so fast that the man in black subconsciously dodged before he could see what it was. But he couldn't escape, and fell to the ground with a muffled grunt on the spot.

The ice needle whizzed past and was invincible, the six men in black were killed by the ice needle, four of them were killed, two needles went empty, and the last two were taken down by Li Tong and a group of guards.

"Clean up the scene."

Huilan retracted the ice needle with a wave of her hand, her body shook, and she knelt down in pain, covering her head.

"Lan'er, how are you doing?"

"Help me back to my room, I have a headache."

Huilan covered her head and snorted in pain.

Li Chengze hurriedly helped her into the room and laid her down, poured a glass of water, Huilan took a pill and took it.

"Is it because I can't use ice needles, and my spiritual consciousness is consumed too much? It's all my fault."

Li Chengze's face darkened with anger.

"It doesn't matter, it will be fine in a while. It's still a little bit reluctant. I'm just afraid... I'll get better after a night of sleep. It's much better than last time."

Huilan smiled at him after taking the medicine.

"Don't use it in the future, promise me, okay, I will bring more people when I go out in the future so that you won't worry, and you don't want me to be scared, I can't help you at all, it really makes me anxious."

Li Chengze was helpless and distressed.

"Okay, it's okay, you go and see them, I'll be fine after a while."

Huilan hugged the soul-nourishing wood and closed her eyes to rest for a while.

"You sleep for a while, call me if you need anything, I'll be right outside the door."

Li Chengze sighed, her situation was rather troublesome, and the doctor didn't do anything about it, which made him helpless and anxious.

The battle didn't last long, and it wasn't even midnight, so Li Chengze asked to check all the men in black.

"Your Highness, there is still one alive. I took out the poison from his teeth, but the injury is serious and needs to be healed, otherwise he won't be able to bear the severe punishment."

Li Tong came to report.

"Have you checked everything carefully? Take out all the poison from the victim's body, check the hair, teeth, and shoe soles carefully. Internal injury or external injury?"

"There are both internal and external injuries. It seems to be poisoned. It is a chronic poison. I heard that these killers are controlled by Gu insects. I am not sure if they are like this.

There is chronic poison on the body and the injury is relatively serious. If the injury is aggravated, if it is not treated, it will die, and we will not be able to ask anything. "

Li Chengze entered the room, avoiding Li Tong's eyes, took out the medicine bottle from the storage bag, went out and gave it to Li Tong, "Give it to him, it doesn't need to be completely cured, as long as he doesn't die, the powder is for trauma, take a pill That's fine, it should be able to suppress his poison."

"Yes, I'll go right now."

"Wait, let someone wipe his body to prevent him from hiding poison or committing suicide by biting his tongue."

Li Chengze reminded him cautiously.

Li Tong smiled, "Don't worry, Your Highness, I can't do this kind of thing here, just watch me. I will definitely pry his mouth open."

"Well, let's go. The others will search it and take it to the yamen. We're docking after dawn, so don't worry about it now."

"Yes."

After Li Chengze finished explaining, he went back to his room to guard Huilan. After taking the medicine, she was much better, and her head didn't hurt anymore. Her soul didn't get better. If she used her consciousness a little more, she would get a headache. There was nothing to do about it. It takes time to adjust slowly, and there is no need to rush.

"Is it better? I think your complexion is still not good."

Li Chengze leaned on the bedside, hugged her and kissed her, he sighed in pain, holding his breath.

"It's okay, I'm much better, but I can't use my spiritual sense, and I'm a bit reluctant to use the ice needle, it's my impatience."

"Where is your fault? I dragged you down. If it wasn't for my safety, you could run away by yourself."

Li Chengze sighed heavily, and vowed to find out who was behind the scenes.

Huilan took out a few bottles of medicine and handed them to Li Chengze, "Go and distribute the medicine to them. Let me express my condolences. They will help you to block the knife. You can't delay at this time. You can go now. Give them the bottle of Huang Jingdan as well." Make a reward."

"It's not in a hurry at this moment."

He was worried about Huilan and didn't want to leave.

"Go, I'm fine, it's just that the headache won't kill me, it's okay, I won't be in pain anymore."

Huilan insisted on making the most of the hard-won opportunities.

"Okay, I'll go right away, you can lie down and don't move."

Li Chengze had no choice but to take the medicine bottle and go out to condolences to the injured imperial guards. This is indeed a critical time to buy people's hearts.

Seeing Li Chengze go and return, Li Tong hurried over, "Does your Highness have anything to say?"

"It's okay. I see that the brothers are injured. I'm afraid your medicine is not good enough. I have the medicine prepared by Mrs. Xi herself, as well as Huang Jingdan. Today you are fighting to the death for the orphan. I see it in my eyes and keep it in my heart. Gu is very grateful. This is to reward you, it can replenish energy and blood so that you can get well sooner."

"Thank you, Your Highness, brothers, Your Highness came to see us and brought us medicine."

Li Tong hurriedly yelled at his brothers.

The injured soldiers sat on the ground and saluted, "Thank you, Your Highness."

"No, you were injured because of orphans, Cao Heng. When you go back, remember to reward each soldier with 100 taels of silver, and those who are injured will get 50 taels more. The orphans will pay for their medicines. Give everyone something to eat."

"Yes, my subordinates, remember, you can rest assured that you will not treat your brother badly."

Li Chengze handed the medicine to Li Tong, and told him how to take it. Huang Jingdan was available for both trauma and internal injuries, as well as for supplementing qi and blood. Li Tong knew it was better than the royal medicine as soon as he heard it. It's cheap, and the medicines used are all imperial medicines, which are already the best medicines, and other guards can't afford such good medicines.

"Brothers, Mrs. Xi's medicine is very good, come here, give medicine to the wounded."

Li Tong is overjoyed, hurry up and give everyone medicine, so that they can get better soon.

Li Chengze comforted everyone before returning to the room. The survivor was still in a coma and it would take some time for him to wake up.

Huilan fell into a deep sleep, and Li Chengze sat beside her with his eyes slightly closed, thinking about something.

They didn't return to the shore until dawn. Li Tong went back to the inn first with the survivors. Cao Heng took care of the rest. Sun Bin led the team to escort Li Chengze and the two back.

"When someone wakes up, remember to notify me."

Huilan explained something before returning to the house.

Sun Bin glanced at Li Chengze, not daring to agree immediately.

Seeing the crown prince nodded, Sun Bin cupped his fists and saluted, "Yes."

After returning to the house and changing clothes and washing up, Huilan felt more comfortable, "Zelang, I think this is very strange, I suspect that this assassination has something to do with your brother, fish in troubled waters."

"It's very likely that they did it. The salt merchants and local officials don't have the ability to ask such a powerful expert to assassinate me. If they have this ability, they would have been an official in Beijing long ago. There is no need to hide in Yangzhou."

Li Chengze sneered, with a cold light in his eyes, this matter must not be let go.
