On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Chapter 1806: Escape

Xu Congshan arrived fifteen minutes earlier than the agreed time.

With his eyes slightly closed and holding a knife, he waited under a tree.

Arrive early and occupy the advantageous terrain.

Hearing the sound of horse hooves, he opened his eyes and hid behind a tree.

Observe secretly.

Two horses and two men arrived.

Xu Congshan sneered silently, if he had known that this person would not be honest, he would have come alone.

However, he was well prepared.

Looking up at the tree, I saw several hidden arrows already hidden there.

The horses stopped, the two men dismounted, looked behind the tree and said, "Xu Congshan, come out."

Xu Congshan walked out slowly and looked at the two of them.

"I'm here," one of the men in black stepped forward, "Have you brought the money?"

Xu Congshan asked: "Tell me first, what did the Su family say?"

"Your life, of course."

Xu Congshan chuckled: "What if I gave you money and you still don't let me go?"

"Don't worry about this. When I go back, I will say that you are dead, and the matter of the Su family will be over."

"But I want to know why you did this in the first place." The man in black raised another finger. "If you can solve my doubts, I'll pay one hundred taels less."

Xu Congshan's face showed a strong disgust. "What else could it be? The Su family relied on their wealth to collude with the government to harm my parents and kill my entire family. Not only that, they even spared the Wen family."

"Ah Lian saw her parents being murdered with her own eyes. If she hadn't been pushed under the bed by Aunt Wen, she would have died long ago."

"Even so, she was terribly frightened. For a whole year, she refused to speak and was as dazed as an idiot."

"I have filed a complaint and provided evidence, but the government refused to arrest anyone. If I hadn't accidentally learned that the Su family had already used money, there would have been no progress in this matter, and I would still be waiting foolishly."

"I waited and waited, but what I waited for was the assassins from the Su family again and again."

Xu Congshan sneered, slowly drew his knife, and stroked the blade with his fingers: "If I don't fight back, will I wait for them to kill me and eventually die under their knife?"

"My life is my life, my whole family's life is my life, the Wen family's life is my life, and I can't let A-Lian get into trouble again."

"Since the government doesn't care, I have no choice but to do it myself and massacre the Su family. But I didn't expect that someone slipped through the net and asked you to come to me."

The faint knife light reflected in Xu Congshan's eyes: "Could it be that if the Su family kills our two families, they can be considered innocent, but if I kill the Su family, I will definitely die?"

"Why?"

The tip of the knife pointed at the man in black: "I have said everything I need to say. I don't have any money. Since you are working for the Su family, don't blame me for being rude."

As Xu Yin fell, Xu Congshan flew over and stabbed him. The man in black dodged sideways and fought with him.

It wasn't two against one, the other one was just watching.

After this fight, Xu Congshan was shocked to find that he was no match for the man in black.

He could feel that even though the man in black had not used his full strength, he was still able to defeat him.

Xu Congshan struggled hard and looked for an opportunity to retreat towards the tree.

The man in black seemed not to notice and followed him while fighting.

The other man in black stood still.

Just when Xu Congshan was about to launch a hidden arrow, another man in black suddenly spoke.

"Xu Congshan," she raised her hand, "look what this is?"

Under the moonlight, the object in the black-clothed man's hand was clearly visible.

It was a sachet, half-worn, with a style and pattern that he was very familiar with.

Xu Congshan's eyes widened, and he could no longer trigger the mechanism.

"What did you do to A-Lian?"

The man in black said, "It's up to you what to do with her."

"Xu Congshan, you brought Wen Xiaolian to Shencheng just because of the Su family?"

"Or...hiding something else."

Xu Congshan was furious: "I warn you, if you dare to touch a hair of A Lian..."

"This warning is useless," the man in black interrupted him calmly, "You might as well answer my question and tell me if you are hiding anything else."

"Tell the truth, and tell it as soon as possible. Her life is in your hands."

Xu Congshan gritted his teeth and said, "No, it's only about the Su family. If the government had been willing to make a fair judgment, I would not have touched the Su family."

"But, they colluded with each other, so it's not my fault. I can't let the two families die in vain."

The man in black who was fighting with him said, "Tell me the name and position of the official who colluded with the Su family."

Xu Congshan had nothing to hide, so he told the truth.

"If not, why did you secretly lie in the bushes outside the camp that night?"

Xu Congshan was puzzled: "What do you mean by bushes outside the camp? I have never been there."

"Really?" The man in black played with the sachet. "Are you sure?"

Xu Congshan said anxiously, "I am sure that if I say even one word falsely, I will be struck by lightning from heaven."

"Where is A-Lian? Let her go, and come to me if you have any problems."

The man in black gently pulled off the black cloth and threw the sachet to him.

Xu Congshan first took the sachet, then looked at the man in black, and was surprised: "You..."

Looking at the man in black who was fighting with him, he also pulled off the black cloth, revealing his true face.

Xu Congshan was stunned for a moment, then quickly dropped the knife and saluted.

"Greetings, Your Majesty, Princess."

Only then did he understand why he couldn't win. This was the Prince of Zhennan, how could he defeat him?

Huo Changhe looked at the top of his head and said, "I will send someone to verify what you said."

Xu Congshan didn't dare to look up: "Every word I said is true."

"If the government had not colluded with the Su family, I would have nowhere to turn to... My family of four, the Wen couple, a total of six people, all died because of the Su family's young master's lust for A Lian."

Yan Ruyu thought that if this was true, it should have caused quite a stir in the local area and should not be difficult to investigate.

Adding the names of the officials, if it is true, then what Xu Congshan said can be confirmed.

The reason why he said he didn't know where his hometown was was to conceal this old case and cover up the fact of murder.

It turned out to be the case.

Yan Ruyu felt a little sad, but also a little relieved.

Fortunately, Xu Congshan is not a mountain, otherwise, Wen Xiaolian would be too pitiful.

"My Lord, Princess, A-Lian..."

"She's fine," Yan Ruyu said, "She's still in Doctor Sun's medicine shop."

Xu Congshan was stunned. He didn't expect that she also knew about this.

Yan Ruyu said, "You met this princess last night at your home."

If she hadn't said it, Xu Congshan wouldn't have dared to think about it that way. But after she said it, he suddenly realized.

"I am short-sighted and didn't know you were the princess. I'm sorry for the offense. Please forgive me."

"No need to be polite," Yan Ruyu said, "Xu Congshan, this princess has something to ask you, tell the truth."

"If what you say is helpful to this princess, after the prince verifies that what you say is true, he will treat you leniently."

"If there is any falsehood..."

Xu Congshan kowtowed and said, "Princess, please tell me, I will never say a single word falsely."

Yan Ruyu nodded and asked, "I want to ask you, where did you go that night, and why are there dead grass leaves on your boots?"
