They didn't understand the internal affairs of the Northern Jin Dynasty, but under the current situation, it was best for them to return to Zhenbeiguan first.
"This is our attitude, and we need them to see it clearly." Liu Yunxiang said.
Qin Fei nodded, "And it's actually not safe to stay here."
Indeed, if Tan Luoruo wants to destroy the alliance between the two countries, it is indeed dangerous for them to stay here. With this in mind, the group of people packed up their things and were about to leave early the next morning, but were stopped by Yi Cheng.
"Elder Princess, Your Highness Prince Qing, you can't leave."
"Why?" Liu Yunxiang asked.
"Everyone outside the post house was surrounded by personal guards brought by Tan Chief Fu. As for why, I don't know why."
Liu Yunxiang asked Feng Zheng to check at the door. Sure enough, there were people from Tan Luo guarding the door, and the guards were very tight.
Liu Yunxiang and Qin Fei went to talk to Tan Luo to reason. When they entered his hospital, they first smelled a strong medicinal smell. Then they came to the hall and saw a doctor in a white robe taking Tan Luo's pulse.
Tan Luo still had a bad expression on his face, his brows were furrowed tightly, and when he saw the two of them coming in, his eyes became even more gloomy.
"I heard that you two are going back to Zhenbeiguan?"

Liu Yunxiang paused, "Yes, since the negotiation failed, we should go back."
"You two just left like this?"
"if not?"
After Liu Yunxiang finished speaking, Tan Luo suddenly began to gasp, his face was blue and his breathing was not smooth. The doctor hurriedly pricked several acupuncture points with silver needles, and Tan Luo slowly recovered.
"Chief Assistant, this is not an ordinary typhoid fever, but poisoning." The doctor said.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yunxiang turned to look at Qin Fei, who coughed dryly.
It is indeed difficult to distinguish the poison he administered, but it was targeted at an ordinary doctor. If he had some skills, he could still tell, and obviously this doctor in front of him was the one.
Tan Luo didn't trust them, and perhaps had some suspicions about his illness, so he asked a famous local doctor to diagnose his pulse.
"It turns out it's poisoning, cough." Tan Luo said and looked at Qin Fei, "Prince Qing, you didn't diagnose it before?"
Qin Feishi laughed dryly, "I also make mistakes sometimes, there is nothing surprising about this."
Tan Luo snorted and looked at the doctor again, "Doctor Bai, what kind of poison is this? Can you cure it?"
The doctor looked troubled, "I have never seen this kind of poison. As for how to detoxify it, it is indeed not something that can be researched in a short while. However, the poison in the first assistant is chronic, so it is not that critical."
Tan Luo lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then looked at Qin Fei, "Prince Qing, can you cure me of this poison?"
Qin Feishi pretended to step forward to check Tan Luo's pulse, then thought hard for a while and said, "This poison is not easy to cure."
"Isn't it easy to understand?" Tan Luo snorted, "By the way, why are you two here?"
Liu Yunxiang pursed his lips. Tan Luo's meaning was very clear. He would not let them go until he was detoxified.
"Tan Shoufu, if I want to leave this inn, I don't need your consent, right?"
"Elder Princess, this is in Beijin. If I recognize you as the eldest princess of Beijin, you are. If I don't recognize you, you will still be the Crown Princess of Da Rong. Oh, by the way, the title given to you by the emperor, but the emperor is far away In Jin'an, can he still grow wings and fly over to protect you?"
Liu Yunxiang narrowed his eyes, "Disobeying the emperor's order, you are committing the following crime!"
"Princess, I have done many of the following crimes, including this one!"
With that said, Tan Luo retracted his arm and said coldly: "The person who poisoned me must have an antidote. I will only give you two three days. I believe I can get the antidote by then!"
Back in the west courtyard where they lived, Qin Fei gritted his teeth angrily and said, "If I had known I would poison him, I would have asked him to see the Lord of Hell immediately!"
Liu Yunxiang let out a long sigh, "If he dies, the Northern Jin Dynasty will definitely suspect us. If the negotiations fail, conflicts may arise."
"Then I'll detoxify him?"
"He can suffer this loss in vain. I'm afraid that after the poison is cured, he will have to settle the score with his wife."
"What should we do?"
Liu Yunxiang didn't know what to do for a while, but since they had three days, they could think about it again.
That night, Liu Yunxiang was about to change her clothes and rest. She saw the fire outside the window. She hurriedly put on her clothes again. Just as she was about to call Zijin to ask what was going on, the tenth princess ran in first.
“There’s a fire in the front yard!”
"on fire?"
Liu Yunxiang hurriedly followed the tenth princess out, and Qin Feishi also came out, looking ahead. Liu Yunxiang walked to him and looked at the place where the fire was. The fire was very strong, swallowing up the surroundings like a fire dragon, and he was afraid that it would burn over soon.
"The fire started in the courtyard where Tan Luo lived." Qin Fei said.
Liu Yunxiang's eyes widened, "It's him!"
"This fire is unusual."
Liu Yunxiang frowned, it was indeed too unusual.
At this time, Feng Zheng and Zi Jin ran back from outside, saying that the fire in the front yard was very big, but Tan Luo still escaped, but now he was surrounded by a group of men in black, and the two parties were fighting.
Liu Yunxiang breathed out, it turned out that someone wanted to kill Tan Luo.
"All the guards outside the posthouse went to the front yard to protect Tan Luo. I just walked around and found that the other doors were locked. Only the west door was open and there was no one guarding the outside." Feng Zheng said.
The west gate is just outside their courtyard. It is locked during the day and is guarded by guards outside.
"Then we can take advantage of this opportunity to escape," Zijin said.
It was indeed a good time, but Liu Yunxiang always felt that something was wrong. But the fire was almost burning, so she didn't allow her to think too much. The group simply packed up and fled to the west gate.
As expected, the door was wide open. They ran outside and saw two guards at the door, but they were already dead, stabbed to death with swords.
"It feels like someone is helping us secretly." Princess Ten said.
Liu Yunxiang stopped because of the tenth princess's words.
"Sister-in-law Seven, what's wrong?"
Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "No, the other party is not helping us."
Qin Feishi answered: "The other party wants to frame us!"
Liu Yunxiang turned his head and looked inside. He did not hesitate to set fire to the post house. This was not enough. He also sent a group of men in black, who were bound to kill Tan Luo. But Tan Luo is the chief minister and the head of the civil service. His death will definitely cause turmoil in the Northern Jin Dynasty, so someone needs to take the blame.
"We failed to negotiate during the day, and Tan Luo ordered us to besieged. He was killed at night. Everyone would suspect that we were responsible."
"Especially because we escaped, this crime is even more confirmed."
Liu Yunxiang and Qin Feishi looked at each other. There was no need to discuss this time. Qin Feishi returned immediately with Feng Zheng.
"Girl, where are we going?"
"We'll just wait outside the inn."
They walked around from the west gate to the front. As soon as they got there, Pei Xuan and other envoys ran out under the escort of guards.
"Princess, I'm relieved to see you're fine," Pei Xuan said.
Liu Yunxiang tilted his head and glanced back, "Where is Tan Shoufu?"
"There was a fire in his courtyard, and a group of men in black took advantage of the chaos to kill and get in. I'm afraid it's more serious than bad."
Liu Yunxiang looked at Pei Xuan and felt that he was a little too calm.
