027: King Yu’s token is here, who dares to block the way?

With that said, she took the handkerchief beside the bed and stuffed it into Chu Nanying's mouth to prevent her from biting her tongue when she twitched.

Chu Hanming was very angry, "How could it be poisonous? This is Beifeng Temple's Qi-nourishing Pill, which has the effect of bringing the dead back to life!"

Nan Li didn't talk nonsense and asked Yuan Bao to pour a glass of water and put the Qi Nourishing Pill into the water.

After the Qi-nourishing Pill was soaked in for a while, she used a silver needle to explore the water. The silver needle immediately turned black.

Chu Hanming's eyes widened in disbelief, and he murmured: "How could it be...how could it be poisonous? I spent a lot of money to buy it, and it was fine before...before..."

This was his only daughter, and now she was about to die because of his negligence. He was trembling all over and could not forgive himself at all.

The old lady was leaning on a cane and her heart ached slightly. She quickly took a heart-protecting pill.

She had a flash of inspiration and said: "Tongtong, you gave me this heart-protecting pill, so do you have any way to save Ying'er?"

"Don't worry, grandma." Nan Li said, and took out an acupuncture bag from the bag.

Even if Chu Nanying is young, the men have to withdraw and wait outside.

Nan Li untied Chu Nanying's clothes and injected a few needles into her chest to control the flow of toxins to her heart.

Then prick Chu Nanying's finger, and use the poisonous talisman to collect the poisonous blood on the fingertips, causing the poisonous blood to slowly flow down from the fingertips.

Poisonous blood dripped into the bowl.

During this process, Old Taijun and Mrs. Shen did not dare to speak, and even breathed softly, so as not to disturb Nan Li.

As the poisonous blood dripped, Chu Nanying's convulsions gradually subsided.

Nan Li took off the handkerchief from her mouth and gave her a Qingxinjiedu pill to purify and remove the remaining poison from her body.

After the needle was removed, Chu Nanying's complexion had improved a lot and was not as purple and blue as before.

When the dripping blood turned bright red, Nan Li applied some styptic powder to her fingertips.

"Seventh sister is fine, but her body is already weak. This poisoning has damaged her qi and blood again, so she will have to be taken care of more carefully in the future," Nan Li said.

The old lady and Mrs. Shen breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

Chu Hanming came in and saw that his daughter had escaped. He cried and laughed and couldn't help but thank Nan Li.

Nan Li asked: "Second uncle, can you show me those Qi-nourishing pills?"

Chu Hanming finally calmed down, nodded, and took out all the Qi-nourishing pills locked in the box.

"After all, I spent a lot of money to buy it. When I paid for it, I had it checked by a doctor. The doctor said it was fine."

The doctor was a trustworthy person, and he couldn't figure out what was wrong.

Nan Li poured out all the elixirs. After identifying them, he said: "So it turns out that the inner wall of the bottle is stained with poison. It will take a few days for it to show its effect."

That's why the doctor didn't find anything wrong at the time.

The brothers looked at each other, thinking that the poisoner really had evil and thoughtful intentions.

Things happened one after another in the house, and Chu Hanlin did not avoid his son, saying: "Li'er, do you think this matter has something to do with the previous evil spirits?"

Although the methods are different, the goal is the same, they all want to take the lives of the Chu family.

"You have to ask the person who sells Ershu's elixir." Nan Li said.

This is also the only clue now.

Chu Hanlin nodded solemnly and asked his second brother to show him the way. He led his soldiers to arrest the person.

Not long after, the two brothers came back, their expressions were not right.

"That vendor is dead." Chu Hanlin looked solemn, "The one who was poisoned and killed has been dead for two days."

He also went to Dali Temple to ask, and found out that the merchant was alone in Kyoto and his relatives were all in other places.

The clerks didn't know how the vendors obtained these Qi-nourishing pills. They only said that the vendors could obtain different types of pills from Beifeng Temple.

As for who the traders got it from and how they got it, they had no idea.

Mrs. Shen worriedly said: "Killing people and silencing them must be aimed at the Chu family."

"Don't panic, mother and madam, I'll go to Beifeng Temple to see if there are any other clues." Chu Hanlin said.

Nan Li also wanted to follow, but if she left, it would be easy for the secret warlock to take advantage of him, so she gave Chu Hanlin several talismans to defend himself.

After Chu Hanlin went out with his soldiers, Nan Li set up a talisman array in the house to prevent evil spirits from easily invading the house.

The people of Anyanghou Mansion have been quietly waiting for Chu Hanlin to return home these days, but they didn't expect Zhenbei Hou to come to the door at this time.

He met with the old lady and anxiously explained his purpose.

It turned out that Xie Beihan had been thinking about his brother's death and secretly pursued and arrested various warlocks and Taoists. He went out with a group of guards two days ago and never returned home.

Zhenbeihou sent several groups of people there, but all returned without success.

Helpless and worried, he thought of Nan Li and immediately looked for her.

Nan Li asked Xie Beihan's horoscope for the time of day, used five copper coins to divine it, and then said: "He is still alive."

Before Zhenbei Hou could laugh, Nan Li said again: "But we are not far from death."

The Marquis of Zhenbei didn't know whether he should cry or laugh. He wanted to kneel down to Nan Li and said, "Please Miss Sixth, please save Quan Zi. I only have one son left, so nothing can happen to him."

Nan Li remembered that she still needed a lot of arrow targets to practice archery, so she made a big offer: "To get out of danger, I want..."

As soon as she stretched out her hand, Zhenbei Hou nodded hurriedly: "Fifty thousand taels? No problem!"

"..." Nan Li actually wanted to say five thousand taels, but others said it was no problem, and she had no problem either.

When the time comes, she will replace the archery target with a stainless steel one.

The old lady knew that her granddaughter was very capable, but she was still worried and wanted her eldest grandson to accompany her for protection, "Tongtong, let your eldest brother go with you..."

"No need, I don't have time to take care of my elder brother." Nan Li learned from the divination that Xie Beihan was in danger, and if one more person followed him, he would be in more danger.

She told the Marquis of Zhenbei about her request, then hurried back to Yuerong Pavilion, prepared the talisman and seal, put the cloth bag on her back, and went out immediately.

The Marquis of Zhenbei had already prepared a sweaty horse and the sachet used by Xie Beihan according to her instructions.

Nan Li quickly mounted his horse, used the compass to find out Xie Beihan's direction, and then left the city through the west gate.

Unexpectedly, the west city gate was blocked today.

Princess Huiping was about to leave the city from here and go to the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple to worship Buddha. The honor guard and accompanying bodyguards were so large that they did not move even an inch for a long time.

I heard that the axle of the carriage in front is stuck and is being repaired.

Saving a life often takes just a moment.

Nan Li was too lazy to wait any longer and rode over directly.

When the chief guard saw someone trying to cross the eldest princess's carriage to leave the city, he angrily came out to stop him: "How dare you! The eldest princess hasn't left the city yet, how dare you cross over to the front?! Someone, capture her!"

After giving the order, several guards came out.

Nan Li didn't stop, he took out a red gold token and said loudly: "King Yu's token is here, who dares to block the way!"

The guards hadn't seen the golden token clearly yet, but Nan Li was so powerful that they all backed away, daring not to stop him.

The road ahead is clear.

Nan Li galloped past on horseback with a dashing figure. When the eldest princess Huiping raised the curtain and looked, the figure had turned into a black dot.
