Koi Fleeing Famine: I Picked Up a Chief Assistant as a Husband

Chapter 112
Lu Nanzhi returned to Chunfeng Building, and while cooking, she was still thinking about what the second prince said, and accidentally cut her finger, blood flowed out immediately, and the pain from her finger brought her back to her senses.

She didn't pay attention either, she just wrapped the wound with a cloth strip and continued to work.

Seeing this action, the guy standing by was stunned. He scratched his head and said with a smile, "Miss Lu, she is really different from other girls. If it was other girls, she would definitely cry."

Lu Nanzhi smiled lightly, "It's not normal to cut the dishes with your hands. I'm used to it, so naturally I don't think it's a big deal."

"That's right. I've never seen a woman as capable as Miss Lu." After the man finished speaking, he turned to get busy.

Lu Nanzhi processed all the ingredients and made a few new dishes before turning around and leaving the kitchen for the Red Dressing Pavilion.

Xu Beiting had just prepared the spices, when he went out, he saw the distraught Lu Nanzhi, and walked towards her.

"Miss Lu, you are back."

Lu Nanzhi came back to his senses when he heard the voice, and looked up at the person walking by.

"This is the spice I just mixed. How do you smell it?" Xu Beiting opened the small box and handed it over.

The scent of the fragrance burst into his nostrils instantly, Lu Nanzhi asked with a smile: "Did you put sweet-scented osmanthus here?"

"Miss Lu's sense of smell is really good, you can smell it even if I put in a little." Xu Beiting knew that she had a good sense of smell, but he didn't expect her to have such a keen sense of smell.

"Maybe I'm naturally sensitive to smells." Lu Nanzhi explained with a smile, and returned the box in his hand, and the two chatted and walked.

On the other side, Jun Moyu was walking along the quiet path with the team, when suddenly a gust of cold wind blew, the guard couldn't help shivering, looked up and wondered around, "Why is there a sudden wind?"

As soon as the words fell, many black-clothed masked men appeared from the woods in front of them, rushing towards them with their knives raised!
"There are assassins—protect Your Highness!" The guards shouted loudly, and the team suddenly became a mess, everyone drew their swords to guard, but those masked men were very skilled, and they had already approached in the blink of an eye, and everyone resisted desperately to barely block them .

Jun Moyu's face darkened, it seemed that the other party had been prepared for a long time, and even investigated her whereabouts clearly, and ambushed here waiting for her!
The guard also found something wrong, lowered his head and thought for a while and said: "Your Highness, since the other party dares to attack, there must be something to rely on. Now the most important thing is to leave here before making plans, otherwise... I'm afraid the whole army will be wiped out."

"Retreat." Jun Moyu had no choice but to leave in a hurry with the guards, and all the official money was snatched by the men in black.

"Your Highness, you are injured." The guard supported him and found that his right arm was dripping with blood.

Jun Moyu shook her head to show that she was fine.

"What is the origin of these people? Why did they rob and kill us? Could it be someone sent by the palace?" The guard asked in confusion.

"Apart from her, who else would wish us to die." Jun Moyu raised her brows lightly, this matter was far from being as simple as it appeared on the surface.

"Your Highness, what should we do now?" the guard asked.

Jun Moyu turned her eyes slightly, pondered for a moment and said, "Go to the village ahead to find a place to stay, and we must find a way to find the official bank."

The official bank must be retrieved first, if there is no official bank, how can they use it to help the victims, if Fenghuang finds out about this, he will definitely be furious.

It's no wonder that when his father ordered him to go to Jinzhou to rescue the victims, Concubine Song didn't stop him, let alone recommend the second prince to go. It turned out that a trap was set here.

"But Your Highness, your injury needs treatment." The guard said eagerly.

"Don't worry, I won't die." Jun Moyu said lightly, then closed his eyes and rested his mind. Although his wound was deep, it was very shallow. As long as he bandaged it in time to stop the bleeding, his life would be safe for the time being.

"Your Highness—" the guard hesitated to speak.

A group of people came to the village and found a dilapidated yard to settle down. The guards found a pile of firewood and lit it in the room. The warm breath dispelled the cold on their bodies.

When Lu Nanzhi learned that the fifth prince was seriously injured and missing, she was very worried, which made her unable to sit still.

When Xu Beiting saw the person leaving with the package, his heart skipped a beat, and he hurried after her, grabbed her and asked, "Miss Lu, where are you going?"

"I have something to go out of town! I'll leave the Red Dressing Pavilion to you!" Lu Nanzhi patted his hand, as if entrusting him with a heavy responsibility.

A look of surprise flashed across Xu Beiting's eyes, he quickly shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I'll embarrass this important task."

"I believe you can." Lu Nanzhi broke free from his hand and ran out quickly.

"Miss Lu..." Xu Beiting looked at Yuan Zuo's back, and slowly lowered his raised hand, why did she believe in herself so much!

The sky is getting brighter, and the morning sun shines through the gaps in the trees and shines on the roof, causing golden ripples.

Jun Moyu, who hadn't slept all night, leaned against the window sill and looked out the window.

Suddenly, he frowned, as if there were footsteps coming, he looked at the door defensively.

There was a sound of "squeak", and a head poked in from outside the door, showing a smile when it saw Jun Moyu.

Jun Moyu narrowed her eyes and stared at the other party for a long time before she recognized it was Lu Nanzhi, but at the moment she was wearing a black dress and her face was covered with a black cloth.

"What are you doing here?" Jun Moyu looked at her vigilantly. Lu Nanzhi's appearance was really unexpected, but it was more of speculation and suspicion.

After all, they came here out of helplessness, how did Lu Nanzhi know, which made him suspicious.

Lu Nanzhi didn't answer him, but pushed the door open with a smile and walked in, taking off the black cloth on his face.

"Your Highness really made it easy for me to find it. If it wasn't for that sachet, I really wouldn't be able to find it here."

Only then did Jun Moyu remember the sachet she had given her before leaving, took it out and put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed it, there was indeed a light fragrance.

"Your Highness doesn't welcome me?" Lu Nanzhi stood by the table, looking at the furnishings in the room, his eyes swept over the wound beside him, and he couldn't help frowning.

"Just tell me what you're here for, don't beat around the bush." ​​Jun Moyu said indifferently.

Hearing this, Lu Nanzhi pursed his lips and smiled, "Of course I'm here to help His Highness, and I'll take a look at where Lan Ze is by the way."

Hearing her words, Jun Moyu couldn't help frowning, "I'm not telling you, wait in peace in the capital, and my highness will definitely bring Shen Lanze back safely."

He never expected that Lu Nanzhi would follow, holding the sachet in his hand, he couldn't help but secretly thought: Could it be that she had such an idea a long time ago, and that's why she specially gave this sachet, just to find him?
Lu Nanzhi casually sat on the chair next to him, crossed his arms and looked at him triumphantly, "I don't believe His Highness's words, unless I see with my own eyes that he is safe and sound."

Jun Moyu rubbed her forehead helplessly. This woman is even more difficult to deal with than Shen Lanze. They really are a match made in heaven, and they are not so easy to fool.
