Chapter 150 So that’s it
When Shen Yiyi heard Shang Zhanchen say there was an assassin, she lost all her sleepiness and instantly became alert.
She tried to struggle out of the man's arms to apply the powder, but he held her hand tightly again.
"Why did you catch me?" She frowned in dissatisfaction.
This guy stopped me from taking the powder. If they come in to kill me, it would be dangerous.
Seeing the woman in his arms struggling, Shang Zhanchen tightened his arms again and pressed her head into his arms again.
"Be careful!" Then he kicked the small table in front of him.
Shen Yiyi only heard a "clang" sound and didn't know what happened. She subconsciously snuggled into the man's arms again and pulled the man's sleeve.
"My medicine powder is right next to the quilt. Give it to Xiao Jiang and the others."
Hearing the noise outside, he knew the fight must be intense, so he thought of asking Xiaoguai to take the medicine powder out quickly so that he could help Xiaojiang, Hanchun and the others.
As I was thinking about it, a man's deep voice came from above my head.
"They should be able to handle it." Shang Zhanchen curled the corners of his mouth and looked at Shen Yiyi who didn't even dare to raise her head in his arms.
This means I’m scared!
When Shen Yiyi heard that Xiao Jiang and the others could handle it, she was about to stick her head out to take a look.
But before she could raise her head, the man pressed her head into his arms again.
"Don't move, or you'll be in danger."
Shang Zhanchen curled the corners of his mouth and pressed Shen Yiyi's head into his arms again. Holding the softness in his arms, he subconsciously tightened his grip.
He obviously hated women and didn't like women to get close to him, but at this moment he actually felt that kind of heat.
It wasn't like anyone was plotting against me, it just felt like I was drugged.
In addition, Shen Yiyi in his arms was not obedient and kept arching his body, which made the feeling of heat even more obvious.
This feeling made him very uncomfortable. Fearing that he would lose control, he threw another stone outside.
The sound of fighting soon stopped, and Jiang Zuo's voice was heard again.
"Miss, are you all okay?"
"Hmm?" Shen Yiyi looked up and listened with her ears perked up.
"No movement." She craned her neck to look at the man.
Although the light in the carriage was dim, the outline of the man's face could still be seen.
"Yeah." Shang Zhanchen agreed and quickly let go of Shen Yiyi.
If he held her for a while longer, he really couldn't guarantee that he could control herself. After feeling relieved, Shen Yiyi hurried to the door of the carriage.
He looked outside and thought it should be safe, so he jumped down carefully.
"What happened just now?" She came to Jiang Zuo.
Although the light was dim, I could still see that the things in front of me were probably quite messy, so I checked them carefully again.
It seems that no one is injured. He looked at Jiang You and the others and didn't feel that they were outnumbered.
Who were they fighting with just now? The fight was so intense that I thought a lot of people would die.
After hearing what the Crown Princess said, Jiang Zuo pointed to the forest in front.
"A dozen assassins came just now, but we drove them away."
"Assassin!" Shen Yiyi frowned.
Following the direction of Jiang Zuo's finger, he looked into the woods ahead, then looked at Jiang You and the others.
She thought these people were going to attack them, but it seemed different from what she expected.
"Yes, Miss, more than a dozen people came just now. Fortunately, Boss Jiang found us, otherwise we would have suffered a loss today."
As Jiang Zuo spoke, he pointed at Jiang You who was standing beside him, still with a grateful look on his face.
To those who don’t know, it seems as if Jiang You is really their savior.
"Oh, thank you so much." Shen Yiyi curled the corners of her mouth and looked at the secret guards around Jiang You.
"Are any of you injured? If so, I can help you take care of it."
As she spoke, she leaned over to look at the secret guards. It sounded like the fight was so intense, so there must be quite a few injured.
Since we have wrongly blamed them and they have helped us, it would be bad to do nothing. It would be okay to help treat the wound.
“Um… No thanks, thank you Miss Shen, no one is injured here.”
"No one is injured!" Shen Yiyi was stunned.
He looked carefully at the secret guards in front of him and found this a bit strange.
With so many assassins coming and fighting so fiercely, how could there be no injuries?
Seeing that the Crown Princess was suspicious again, Jiang Zuo gave Jiang You a wink, and Jiang You grinned again.
"We are all trained, those thieves can't hurt us." After saying that, he waved to the brothers behind him.
"Take inventory and see if any of our things are missing."
Then, the secret guards took the torches and shone them on each carriage one by one, until they came to the front carriage loaded with boxes.
He simply opened the lids on top, revealing the glittering gold inside, which made Shen Yiyi stunned.
"……………………"
Oh my goodness! So much gold!
Judging from the visual, there are at least a dozen large boxes in this car. If they are filled with these big gold ingots, it would cost a lot of money.
He looked at Jiang You again. He thought, how big a business must he have to carry so much gold with him when he goes out?
Moreover, she felt that it was unnecessary and could just exchange it for silver notes, and it would not be safe to keep them on her.
I was wondering in my heart, and Jiang Zuo beside me asked with a surprised look on his face.
"Boss Jiang, why do you carry so much gold on the road? Aren't you afraid it's unsafe?"
After hearing what Jiang Zuo said, Shen Yiyi also looked at Jiang You. She was also confused at the moment.
"Since we are all going the same way, I will not hide anything from you. We are the escort officers of the imperial court.
These are military pay and rations, and we are going to send them to the Lingnan border to the garrison troops."
Jiang You looked at Shen Yiyi and Jiang Zuo. He was not lying to the Crown Princess. These military pay and rations were indeed to be transported to the Lingnan border to the garrison there.
Originally, the master was escorting him personally, but in order to be able to travel with the Crown Princess, he allowed me to follow secretly.
I have to say that the master is smart. In this way, the master can not only accompany the Crown Princess, but also escort her personally.
The most important thing is that I can also stay with my master openly. Killing three birds with one sword is simply perfect.
After hearing what he said, Shen Yiyi nodded.
"Oh, I see."
It was a misunderstanding that made me think they were going to attack me, but it turned out they were transporting military pay and rations.
Fortunately, the powder was not scattered, otherwise we would have to detoxify them one by one, and it would take who knows how much time.
Now he was completely relieved. He said hello and returned to the carriage. Shang Zhanchen found it funny to see the woman looking relieved.
However, after this torment from those guys, there were some benefits. At least the military pay and rations could be carried by him openly.
Seeing that the Crown Princess believed it this time, Jiang You also breathed a sigh of relief.
"……………………"
This time, the Crown Princess should not think about poisoning them.
