This person is Yan Rongyan, who is a deputy general in the palace. He has something to do today, so he happened to come to the prison here when he heard someone calling for help.
Who would have expected that as soon as he opened the door, he would see a female officer wielding a knife at an unarmed female prisoner. He didn't care who was right or wrong. The officer could not lynch prisoners indiscriminately.
He waved his knife to block the sharp knife of the female government officer, and asked calmly: "What happened?"
"She wanted to kill me, but the poison couldn't kill me just now, so she chased me with a knife." Yan Ruocheng immediately told the story of the incident to the strong man who protected her.
After Yan Rongyan learned about it, he seriously asked the female yamen official: "Who are you? Which yamen do you belong to?"
The maid secretly took out the sky stone powder from her sleeve, threw it into Yan Rongyan's eyes, "Be careful!" Yan Ruocheng stepped forward quickly and tried to push Yan Rongyan away.
However, Yan Rongyan was too strong. She was like an ant pushing a boulder, not moving at all. Yan Rongyan's eyes were still sprinkled with sky stone powder, and she couldn't open her eyes for a while.
The female liaison officer slashed at Yan Ruocheng again, "Wow!" Yan Ruocheng eagerly picked up Yan Rongyan's big knife to block it. Yan Rongyan followed her hand, took the handle of his own knife, and swung the knife to block it a few times by hearing.
After attacking, he hugged Yan Ruocheng and rushed directly towards the door.
Yan Ruocheng was pushed out by his arms. He couldn't see the road himself, so when he was walking in the middle, the person next to him bumped into the wall. There were also female cadres who were chasing after him.
The two of them ran out of the prison passage recklessly. Yan Ruozhen was hit in the face and suffered from two nosebleeds. She couldn't care so much, so she pulled this big and brave brother to escape. She could have run away by herself, but she was afraid that the female officer would do it.
Even if you want to kill this man, you have to drag him along with you.
"What's the situation? Why is there no one guarding outside?" Yan Ruocheng thought that if he ran far away, there would be other people and he could ask for help. Who would have thought that after running for a while, he didn't see anyone.
"This is an old prison managed by the Right Officials Department. There are basically no repeat offenders here, and there is no need for anyone to guard it at ordinary times." Yan Rongyan explained.
"Then what should we do? You can't see her, she's chasing after her!"
"You run away first, I'll block her here."
Before they could finish speaking, several men in black jumped out from the outer wall, came with knives and were about to attack them.
"Brother, I think this time we have a narrow escape. Here are some masked men with knives."
"What did you do that caused you to be killed?"
"I'm just writing a medical prescription. The enemy is hiding, and I am hiding. I don't know why they sent people to kill me and there are so many people."
"You hide behind me and run away when you get the chance."
Yan Rongyan understood that things were not simple, and people must be protected first.
The female officer raised her sword and ordered to attack, and the man in black attacked quickly. Yan Rongyan was blind, one against ten, the white blades met each other, the swords were shining and the swords were shadowing.
Yan Ruozhen took the opportunity to escape like an arrow, and shouted: "I'm over here. If you want to kill me, just chase me! Idiot!" Although Yan Rongyan was protecting her, she could never hurt others like this.
.So if you want to escape, you must lure away all the killers and avoid hurting the innocent Yan Rongyan.
Thanks to her words of "food!", the man in black chased faster, and she was surrounded before she even reached the courtyard gate.
She was out of breath and panting. She had no strength to run anymore. She looked around in fear. Could it be that today was the day she died.
The female officer swung her sword and stabbed him straight at him. Yan Ruocheng took a few steps back and was unable to avoid it. At this time, the door opened and an arrow was shot.
The flying arrow missed Yan Ruocheng by the side of her hair and hit the female Yamen servant's arm, causing her to retreat.
Huang Chenling stood outside the door with a bow and arrow in hand and ordered: "Shoot them to death!"
The archers set up a formation, followed the command, and shot accurately at the man in black. The female officer led the man in black to escape.
Yan Ruozhen stood and did not dare to move. Arrows kept flying past her. She was afraid that she would be hit by arrows if she moved.
People have fled far away.
Huang Chenling walked to Yan Ruocheng and said, "Are you stupid? If I say shoot them to death, you should get down immediately and don't block my archer from shooting. Fortunately, my archer skills are very good.
, won’t shoot you.”
Yan Ruozhen then fell to the ground with weak legs, and said with an aggrieved tone: "The villain is afraid that he will be shot if he moves..."
"Are you okay?" Seeing that she was very frightened, Huang Chenling's tone became gentler.
"Ah? Is something wrong? I wonder if he is okay? The villain needs to find someone!" Yan Ruocheng relaxed and suddenly thought of the strong man just now, got up quickly, and ran away.
"Hey, who are you looking for?" Huang Chenling also ran after her.
Yan Rongyan groped along the corridor. Yan Ruozhen had successfully lured everyone away just now. He was not injured at all and was rushing to see if she had been killed.
"Brother! Big brother! Are you okay? As long as you're okay...well!" Yan Ruocheng ran over so quickly that he hit the stone ladder with his foot and flew towards Yan Rongyan. Yan Rongyan stood there
Not sure, she jumped straight into his chest.
Huang Chenling watched this scene happen from behind, feeling a little unhappy in his heart.
"Brother, I'll take you to clean your eyes. You need to clean them quickly." Yan Ruozhen hurriedly held Yan Rongyan's arm.
She seemed to have forgotten Huang Chenling's existence. This made Huang Chenling's eyebrows twitch, making her even more unhappy.
"Vice General Yan, why are you here?" Huang Chenling asked.
When Yan Rongyan heard Huang Chenling's voice, he immediately knelt down and saluted respectfully: "See, the second prince, the last general, was busy with something just now. He was passing by here and accidentally saw this prisoner being chased, so he took action to stop him."
"I'll explain it later. Let's take him back to clean his eyes first. His eyes are stained with sky stone powder. If he doesn't clean them, it will be very serious. Second Prince, let's leave quickly." Yan Ruocheng said worriedly.
"Okay, go back first." Huang Chenling said, hiding her displeasure.
In Yuehua Palace. This is the name of Huang Chenling's residence in the palace.
In the side hall, Yan Ruocheng helped Yan Rongyan clean his eyes repeatedly with water. Fortunately, the sky stone powder was mixed with a large amount of cornstarch, so it only took two or three days to apply the medicine and he would be back to his original state.
Yan Ruozhen carefully applied medicine to Yan Rongyan's eyes and bandaged them with white cloth.
"General Yan, your eyes will recover after two or three days of applying medicine." She learned from Huang Chenling that Yan Rongyan was the deputy general in the palace.
"Well, thank you for bandaging it for me." Yan Rongyan said politely.
"Don't, don't thank me. It was the general who saved me today, so I should be the one to say thank you." Yan Ruocheng said more politely.
"Hey, it's okay. I didn't do anything. In the end, it was you who lured the killer away."
"You were chasing me in the first place, so of course you can't hurt innocent people."
Huang Chenling was sitting opposite, listening to their conversation, her face darkened. He had just arrived in time to save her, and she knew how to thank the passing deputy general in her eyes.
"Cough! Cough!" He said deliberately.
"Second Prince, the general is about to go back and report, please take your leave first!" Yan Rongyan heard Huang Chenling's expulsion order and immediately stood up to leave.
"Hey, General, you can't see the road now, let me take you back." Yan Ruozhen took the initiative to support Yan Rongyan.
"Deputy Yan will be sent back by my bodyguards. You don't have to worry about it. I have something else to tell you." Huang Chenling couldn't help but speak out.
The guards helped Yan Rongyan out.
"Go and close the door before we talk." Huang Chenling pointed to the door and said.
Yan Ruocheng obeyed and walked to close the door.
"Those who want to kill you today may be related to the counterfeit medicine." Huang Chenling poured a cup of tea and took a sip.
"What does killing villains have to do with counterfeit medicine?" Yan Ruozhen asked in confusion.
"Of course I want all the charges to be thrown at you, or you have offended someone, and that person has to kill you." Huang Chenling analyzed several reasons and told her.
"Then there is no need to use so many people. The villain has no power, so it would be too much to mobilize the troops. Unless this person already knows that the second prince will come to save the villain. In this case, it is possible that the second prince knows someone.
"Yan Ruozhen said the biggest possibility.
"Yes. I think so too." Huang Chenling agreed with her statement.
"Scare! Wouldn't that villain have changed the target of assassination? Why?" After Yan Ruozhen finished speaking, he realized later and became worried and scared.
"Hey, you know how to be afraid now." Huang Chenling smiled at her.
"The villain is very innocent. He just wrote a medical prescription and was about to be assassinated. Second Prince, have you caught the mastermind about the counterfeit medicine?" Yan Ruozhen asked.
"If you can't catch him, can you come out? That's nonsense. He is caught. He is just a scapegoat. It is impossible for him to get the fake medicine to buy it. Without the authority of the powerful people in the palace, it would be impossible.
Do you think there is really no one to guard the place that has been replaced with herbs? The Ministry of Civil Affairs sent people to guard it," Huang Chenling explained.
"Then Second Prince, how do you plan to pursue it?"
"Whatever we were still pursuing, the case has been closed. This is how the matter comes to an end."
"What will the villain do in the future? Who knows when he will be assassinated? Doesn't the villain live in fear every day?"
"You are so courageous. What are you afraid of? The killer dared to distract him. There is still time to worry about hurting innocent people." Huang Chenling thought of her conversation with Yan Rongyan. She mentioned that she would distract the killer so that Yan Rongyan would not be hurt.
. Thinking of this, he felt an indescribable suffocation in his heart.
"How can a villain be so bold? Second Prince, you should send some people to protect the villain." Yan Ruozhen lay down at the table and showed his starry eyes to him, asking for help shamelessly.
"Should you tell your master? I have no obligation to do so." Huang Chenling deliberately disobeyed her.
"Second Prince, just agree. If I go back and tell you, no one will believe that with my status, there will be a large group of people chasing me. It's such a fantasy." Yan Ruocheng got down from the table.
Get on the ground, hold his calf and say.
She has changed a lot in the past two months. The biggest change is that she has become thicker-skinned. But she is only used by Huang Chenling.
"Stop pulling my legs. When did you become such a scoundrel? If you don't let me go, I will go out and be whipped."
"Just let it go, you stingy guy!"
Then, the sound of playful chasing came from inside the door.
