Hearing a sound breaking through the air, Gu Beichen's expression instantly changed. He subconsciously protected An Ruowan in his arms, only to find that the arrow in the dark was not aimed at An Ruowan, but landed directly on it. On the sedan chair.
This sudden incident also frightened everyone. Zhao Mingkang didn't care about any rules and immediately got off the horse and opened the carriage curtain.
Fortunately, Song Li was not sitting still at this moment, and the arrow only scratched her clothes. Seeing the worry in Zhao Mingkang's eyes, Song Li did not forget to raise the corners of her lips and smile at him.
However, this smile did not last long, and another sound broke through the air, causing Zhao Mingkang to quickly pull Song Li's arm to protect her behind him.
An Ruowan, who noticed what was going on, also poked her head out from behind Gu Beichen. Without her opening a word, Gu Beichen waved his hand and asked Qingfeng to protect Song Li's safety.
Seeing this, An Ruowan did not hesitate to let Bai Yu join in.
Not long after, the man in black appeared from nowhere and could no longer move forward.
Maybe they didn't expect that there would be these people in the small town government mansion today.
Hearing the noise coming from outside the palace gate, Concubine Qiong couldn't help but raise her lips, "It seems that besides me, there are people who are planning to take her life!"
As she spoke, she came to the door of the mansion. After seeing clearly what happened, the smile on her face became even wider.
Soon the man in black saw that he could not get close to the target, so he could only give an order to retreat.
Qingfeng threw his sword out and hit one of them in the back, but did not hurt his life.
Seeing this, An Ruowan immediately broke away from Gu Beichen's arms and stuffed the pills in his hand into the man's mouth, "Wouldn't it be a pity to let you die so easily?"
When the man in black saw that An Ruowan dared to come to him unprepared, and he could feel that An Ruowan didn't know martial arts at all, a fierce look flashed across his eyes.
But before he could make any move, an indescribable pain suddenly came from his abdomen, and he could no longer control himself and curled up.
"You, what did you do to me!"
In the face of life and death, even they cannot remain calm.
Seeing that he still had hope of living, An Ruowan raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "This kind of thing cannot be talked about."
After the words fell, An Ruowan stood up and returned to Gu Beichen's side.
Seeing that the man in black was captured alive and had not yet been poisoned, Concubine Qiong silently said in her heart, "Trash."
“I really don’t know who paid these people to hire them, and how dare they do such a thing.”
Hearing this, An Ruowan turned around and said, "It turns out that the imperial concubine is still here. She just said those words in the palace. Now that something like this has happened, I couldn't help but have a bold idea."
No need to wait for An Ruowan to finish speaking, Concubine Qiong seemed to have guessed what she wanted to say.
"What nonsense are you talking about? If this matter was really done by me, how could you still be here?"
"Of course it's to get rid of suspicion."
An Ruowan answered without thinking, but Concubine Qiong sneered.
"Who did this? We will know it after we take him down and interrogate him strictly."
Gu Beichen said, but focused on An Ruowan.
An Ruowan also raised the corners of her mouth in cooperation.
Seeing this, Concubine Qiong was a little confused, "If you take people down, torture them and prepare to slander me, who knows what is going on!"
Now that she said that, An Ruowan asked.
"Then what do you think, noble concubine?"
"Just try it here!"
Concubine Qiong blurted out without thinking, and saw An Ruowan coming to the man, "Okay, if you tell the truth, I will give you the antidote, but if you are stubborn, even if I want to help you, then It’s also powerless.”
The figure on the ground had already lost his temper from the pain. Hearing An Ruowan's words, he couldn't wait to nod his head, indicating that he could speak.
It's just that now he can only cry out in pain, and can't speak at all.
Seeing this, An Ruowan didn't say anything nonsense. She raised her hand and tapped his neck twice. As expected, the expression on his face softened a bit.
"yes……"
Before the man spoke, he looked at Concubine Qiong aside with some hesitation.
When she noticed his gaze, Concubine Qiong's eyes flashed with surprise, "What are you looking at me for?"
Hearing this, the man quickly looked away, "Yes, it was the Second Prince who asked us to come."
As soon as these words came out, Concubine Qiong seemed to have just realized why the man looked at her just now.
"How can you talk nonsense in front of Prince Rong? Believe it or not, I will tear your mouth apart!"
In desperation, Concubine Qiong pulled Gu Beichen aside, her eyes filled with anger.
"It's really the guards around the second prince who came to look for us."
Concubine Qiong was relieved now, because she knew very well that Gu Qishen couldn't get up yet. As long as she didn't see Gu Qishen with her own eyes, there would definitely be room for easing the matter.
"It seems that Prince Rong needs to inquire carefully about this matter, so as not to unjustly accuse a good person."
Concubine Qiong did not want to interfere too much in this matter, lest they bite back when the matter comes to the emperor.
After saying these words, Concubine Qiong said nothing more and walked straight towards the palace gate.
"Take it down."
Before the testimony of the man in black could be confirmed, Gu Beichen waved his hand and Qingfeng took the man out.
"There is no need to delay your happy day because of this matter."
An Ruowan also stood up at this time, finally bringing everyone back to their senses, and quickly helped Song Li into another spare sedan, and then quickly packed everything up, as if the thrilling thing just now had never happened. .
"Get up the sedan!"
With a sound, the newlyweds finally walked forward.
An Ruowan looked at their backs and smiled even more.
After they disappeared, An Ruowan raised his head and looked at Gu Beichen, "I wonder who the prince thinks was responsible for what happened just now."
Hearing An Ruowan speak without warning, Gu Beichen lowered his eyes and looked in front of him, "Of course it's Gu Qishen."
"However, he will not be punished for this matter again."
Indeed, Gu Qishen is still lying on the bed now. Even if the emperor knew about this, I'm afraid it would be impossible to punish Gu Qishen again.
"If you're to blame, it's because we reacted too quickly. Now that my cousin is safe and sound, this matter is really difficult to handle."
Having said that, An Ruowan's lips evoked a smile.
It was night, everything was quiet, the cold wind blew outside the window, and there was only a rustling sound.
Gu Qishen was lying beside the bed, listening to the report from his servant that Song Li was safe and sound. He suddenly became angry and threw everything he could throw at him. However, he accidentally touched the wound, which made him grimace in pain.
"Get off!"
After the servants exited, Gu Qishen was the only one left in the room. It seemed that because the window was open, he shivered unconsciously.
