Chapter 125 The concubine who died young in the novel "The Emperor Takes His Minister's Wi
In Peach Willow Town, Liu Chutang, who had been completely calm, suddenly stood up, her expression not looking good.
"Nanyi, let's go."
Liu Chutang beckoned to Nan Yi beside her and quickly set off.
Nan Yi asked, somewhat puzzled, "Where are we going?"
Liu Chutang gritted her teeth and said, "Go after them."
Damn it, she finally found someone she liked, why is she going to marry him?
They don't even know where they're going to get married yet?! Is that even acceptable?!
"So, we're not going to look for the emperor's women then?"
Nan Yi has always been outspoken; she asks questions directly.
His question made Liu Chutang pause in her tracks.
In fact, the main reason the two of them came to Taoliu Town was because they had reconnected with their business partner through the destroyed bookstore and followed the clues all the way to Taoliu Town.
I just didn't expect this kind of mistake to happen halfway through.
Liu Chutang frowned, pondered for a moment, and then decisively said, "I suspect she is the emperor's woman we are looking for."
There are just too many coincidences.
In Peach Willow Town, in that mysterious courtyard, there were so many guards with considerable strength, and that man with an extraordinary aura—all of them seemed to be their partners.
Moreover, if the woman whom the emperor insisted on searching for, and whose husband even got involved, was the one she fell in love with at first sight and even suspected that she was under a spell, then this makes sense.
Even she felt an instant connection, so she didn't believe those men could be so easygoing.
Liu Chutang's words surprised Nan Yi somewhat. "That makes sense."
"Then, Miss, let's go after them now."
Even though there are only two of them, it doesn't matter. Let's pursue them first and then see what happens later.
Liu Chutang and Nan Yi followed Le Yan and her group at a distance.
Because of the Gu worms' concealment, their presence was not strong, and Xiao Lanyi's people were completely unaware that they were being followed.
On the carriage, Leyan felt tired and dizzy.
She doesn't get carsick, so she doesn't think she'll get carriage sickness either.
However, she underestimated the roads in this ancient world. The rugged, bumpy dirt roads kept her bouncing around in the carriage, and there wasn't a moment of peace.
The shaking was so bad, she even suspected her buttocks were going to split into four pieces.
But she can't ride a horse, even though she can ride one, but that was in her previous two lives.
I've never ridden a horse before, and riding one isn't exactly a pleasant experience.
By then, her buttocks will be split into four pieces, and her thighs will be chafed raw.
Le Yan became increasingly numb as she stumbled around. She was now thinking that if she had the chance, she would definitely tell Emperor Kangning to have all the roads repaired!
No wonder every ancient romance novel I read used to have a scene about road repair. Is it really just simple road repair?
No!
This is the path I'm building to my own happiness in life!
Le Yan looked utterly dejected, but that didn't stop her from having a lot of random thoughts running through her mind.
Xiao Lanyi held her, lifted her chin with some concern, and asked carefully, "Qingqing, is the carriage uncomfortable? How about I take you horseback riding?"
Le Yan slowly shook her head at this, "No need, riding a horse is just as good."
Feeling uncomfortable doesn't depend on whether you're riding a horse or a carriage; it only depends on where you feel uncomfortable.
She pursed her lips and asked sincerely, "How much further is it?"
If it's too far, she probably won't go.
Xiao Lanyi lifted the carriage curtain and looked out, estimating the distance before replying, "We'll be there soon. We'll arrive in another hour."
One hour, two hours.
Le Yan suddenly raised her hand and grabbed Xiao Lanyi, pleading with great expectation, "Please, give me a chop to the neck and knock me out!"
She'd rather feel dizzy than be jostled around.
At this moment, she was especially grateful that when Xiao Lanyi took her away from the palace, she had given her a direct chop to the neck.
That hand chop was so good; it saved her from suffering.
She could take another stab now!
Xiao Lanyi was stunned when she heard this, not expecting that she would make such a request.
Seeing her repeatedly pulling his hand towards his neck, he quickly pulled his hand back and said disapprovingly, "Qingqing, a person's neck is very fragile. You can't just tell me to knock you out like that."
"Then why did you chop me up last time?" Le Yan's almond-shaped eyes widened into dead fish eyes as she fiercely rebuked him.
Xiao Lanyi didn't try to deny it, but said with deep regret, "I'm sorry, I had no choice at the time. I didn't have any sleeping pills on me, and I was afraid you would struggle and not come with me, so I just knocked you out."
This has become something he deeply regrets. If he could do it all over again, he would definitely prepare sleeping pills before entering the palace.
Le Yan ignored everything he said; her mind was entirely focused on the sleeping pill.
Her eyes lit up at the mention of sleeping pills. "Then you can't knock me out. You have to use sleeping pills to knock me out."
"I don't mind!"
As long as she travels without being aware of anything, and doesn't suffer any mishaps, that's fine.
If she keeps bouncing around like this for another hour, she'll become a madwoman.
Le Yan's expression was resolute, not allowing Xiao Lanyi any refusal.
Fearing he wouldn't give her the drug, she added a harsher threat: "If you don't listen to me, I'll have to seriously consider whether or not I want to marry you."
What's the use of a man who won't even listen to her?
Le Yan's face clearly conveyed this meaning, causing Xiao Lanyi to fall silent.
He gritted his teeth before reluctantly agreeing: "Okay, but I have to use the drug, and not too much."
He was afraid that if she talked too much, she might accidentally faint for three days and three nights.
Le Yan naturally had no objections. She wasn't a medication expert, so she had to listen to Xiao Lanyi about how to use the medicine.
Seeing her nod, Xiao Lanyi pressed a corner, revealing a small box. He took out a small bottle of medicinal powder from the box.
He poured a little tea onto his fingertip, dipped it in the tea, and dangled it near Le Yan's nose. Le Yan immediately saw stars, became dazed for a moment, and then fell into a coma.
Xiao Lanyi quickly caught the fallen Le Yan, looking at her with a mixture of helplessness and amusement.
This was the first time he had ever encountered someone who actively asked to be drugged.
As expected, she was the one and only Qingqing he had.
He's just different from ordinary people!
