After dressing up as the wife of the hero of the imperial examination, I ran away

Shi Lan, who hadn't seen him for a long time, came to talk to Su Xiaomu in a panic. It was the first time that Su Xiaomu saw such a flustered expression on Shi Lan's face for so long.

"What happened? Could it be the Fucheng..."

Su Xiaomu couldn't help guessing in her heart that if it was Fucheng, she really didn't know how to do it well.

After all, Fucheng was her base camp, a place where no accidents could happen and she couldn't be implicated.

"It's not Fucheng." Shi Lan suppressed her panic, making her face look more relaxed, "It's the fruit seedlings we planted in the suburbs of Beijing. It's only been a month since they were planted. Originally, spring should be the time for the fruit seedlings to grow vigorously. I didn't expect that the fruit growers there suddenly came to me today and said that the roots of many fruit seedlings in the field have turned black. Many of the fruit seedlings are about to wither. The remaining ones don't seem to be in good condition."

Last time, Su Xiaomu handed over most of the business in the capital to Shi Lan's management, and this seedling was just planted a few days ago.

Su Xiaomu wanted to develop fruit wine business in the capital, so she bought a lot of land in the suburbs of Beijing, thinking that since this business was not busy, she would start by planting fruit trees, so as to control the raw materials. If fruit wine production was unsuccessful, selling fruit was another way out.

It's just that she didn't expect that not long after the fruit tree was planted, there was a big problem that she needed to pay attention to in planting.

Su Xiaomu frowned and screamed inwardly.

There should be no problems with the fruit seedlings now, otherwise her fruit wine business in the capital would not be able to continue.

The last time she entered the palace, all the dignitaries were drinking her fruit wine.

Although I don't know what method Lou Qi used to send the fruit wine into the palace, but seeing that everyone liked it so much, Su Xiaomu knew in his heart that this was another way for him to do business.

Perhaps if the fruit wine is brewed well, it can become an opportunity for her to become an imperial merchant.

Therefore, even if Su Xiaomu knew in her heart that Lin Yuemei might have plotted against her, she still had to go and see her fruit trees today.

Su Xiaomu is a very realistic person. It's okay to hurt her, but you can't use hurting her as a reason to hurt her way of making money.

So Su Xiaomu didn't care too much about it, and didn't care about other things, and took Shi Lan directly to the suburbs of Beijing.

The carriage was rickety, Su Xiaomu and Shi Lan bumped all the way, and finally arrived at the field of fruit trees an hour later.

As soon as the carriage stopped, before Su Xiaomu had time to get out of the carriage, he keenly heard the sound of intensive footsteps coming from outside the carriage, accompanied by the sound of drawing a knife.

Su Xiaomu panicked for a while, then she calmly lifted the curtain, looked outside, and found a group of men in black standing straight in front of the carriage, blocking their way.

This should be the person Lin Yuemei sent to assassinate her, and it was really on time.

I had just arrived in the suburbs of Beijing, and I hadn't taken a single extra step before I was besieged by them here.

The coachman who drove the carriage was originally experienced. Since Su Xiaomu arrived in the capital, he drove the carriage nine times out of ten times every time he went out.

Although this coachman is not very old, he used to serve in the family of high-ranking officials and dignitaries, so he has seen the world seriously.

So when I saw someone being assassinated this time, I panicked for a while, and then I calmed down and squeezed the reins in my hand, as if I was looking for a suitable opportunity to drive the carriage out of the encirclement.

"In public, you dare to do such a rebellious thing. Aren't you afraid that the strict law will affect the lives of your parents and relatives?"

Da Chen's laws are not strict, but one of them is very interesting.

Ordinary murderers and arsonists refer to people who kill people with definite reasons. If they meet the moral and ethical reasons, they can avoid the death penalty, be exiled for three thousand miles, or be imprisoned for more than ten years. After all, there is a chance to save a life.

But if it is murder and arson for no reason, or hurting people's lives for money and white things, not only will you die, but you will also implicate the three clans.

In the future, the younger generations will not be able to take the imperial examination, and their parents will also be in danger of being imprisoned.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, when there are conflicts among the people, at most they will fight each other, and they will never hurt other people's lives.

But after Su Xiaomu finished speaking, the killer standing in the front just laughed it off.

The corners of his lips under the mask curled up sarcastically: "A person who has nothing to worry about is just a bad life."

After finishing speaking, the killer raised the knife in his hand, and was about to chop straight in front of Su Xiaomu.

To be honest, it's impossible not to panic, Su Xiaomu doesn't know martial arts, so she is almost powerless in the face of such a life-threatening situation.

But just as she held her breath and was about to jump into the carriage to escape, Shunde Shunyi, who was sitting next to her in the carriage, broke through the carriage door and got out.

Su Xiaomu's eyes were sharp, and he vaguely saw a cold light flashing through their sleeves.

It seems that today's life can probably be saved.

At this moment in Su Xiaomu's heart, he felt infinite trust towards these two little girls.

The killers undoubtedly have some strength, and the counterattack sent by Lin Yuemei is absolutely impossible to be a person with only three-legged cat skills.

But Shunde Shunyi looked like someone not easy to mess with. After some scuffling, Su Xiaomu could only see blood gushing and flesh foam flying in front of her. In a short quarter of an hour, more than a dozen lives died in front of her.

More than a dozen pairs of eyes were unwilling to look at Su Xiaomu before they died. Those dark eyes stared straight at Su Xiaomu, as if they wanted to remember Su Xiaomu's face at the last moment of death.

Suddenly staring at these dead killers, Su Xiaomu couldn't help being startled, then she staggered back with a pale complexion, and was supported by Shi Lan, who had quick eyesight and quick hands.

"Miss..."

"I'm fine, let's... go to the carriage to rest for a while."

The horrible smell of blood lingered on the tip of her nose all the time. Su Xiaomu swore that this was the first time she came to this world and felt that the air smelled so disgusting, which made her completely unable to control the desire to vomit.

"Then I will help the lady to rest."

Shi Lan herself was also taken aback. She thought she was going to die here today, and she still felt infinite regret and pain in her heart. If she had known that coming here would bring them a catastrophe, she would never have called the lady over.

Su Niangzi is such a good person, how can she give her life here?
Shi Lan felt both fear and regret in her heart, but luckily the lady had two maids who knew martial arts by her side, otherwise they would have had a really hard time today.

Shunde and Shunyi moved very quickly, and their methods of killing people were also extremely neat.

Almost in the blink of an eye, he could end the life of a killer in front of him.
