Chapter 1188
The carriage was going to Xiao's house, Ruan Jing was afraid of being bumped into, so he ordered the driver to take a secluded alleyway.

Before reaching the back door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the carriage stopped suddenly. Ruan Jing leaned forward and slammed into the door unpreparedly. The pain made him stare at the door, and he was furious: "How did you drive the carriage? Be careful that I will arrest you"

Before he finished cursing, he heard a muffled sound, as if something had fallen to the ground.

Ruan Jing's heart tightened uncontrollably, he hurriedly opened the car door, and saw the coachman lying on the ground, not sure if he was dead or alive.

But in front of him, stood a masked man in black, his eyes were cold and cold, staring at him coldly.

Ruan Jing's face changed drastically, and he scolded in a flash: "You are so brave, in broad daylight, at the feet of the emperor, you openly committed murder, is there any law?"

"It's not as good as Lord Ruan carrying the princess on his back, joining forces with the Xiao family, and colluding with the King of Lingnan. If the princess knows that Lord Ruan is sharing her worries like this, what will happen?"

The man in black's voice was full of sarcasm, Ruan Jing's face lost all color, his voice trembled, and he stammered, "You, you, who sent you here? What do you want to do?"

If it wasn't for Ruan Jing's death, he had to go to a secluded place, and the man in black wouldn't have a chance to strike, so he didn't bother to talk nonsense to him now: "Hand over the things, otherwise, you will be the next to die."

Ruan Jing glanced at the coachman on the ground, and subconsciously squeezed his cuffs tightly. If he lost his things, he could ask Lingnan King to get them again. If his life was gone, he would lose everything.

After weighing several times, Ruan Jing gritted his teeth and took out the small box, handing it over tremblingly: "Here, here you are."

The man in black took it, opened it and took a look, then looked up at Ruan Jing.

Ruan Jing was so stared at that the blood in his body stopped, and he hurriedly said: "The black one is Jue Hun San, and the white one is the antidote."

The man in black put the box into his arms, and he didn't know how he got rid of it. He only heard a muffled sound, and the coachman faintly woke up.

The man in black was gone.

Ruan Jing's whole body went limp, and he sat slumped in the carriage, sweating all over his body, as if he had been fished out of cold water.

The coachman rubbed his sore neck, stood up from the ground, looked at Ruan Jing's expression, although he didn't know what happened, but he knew that it was definitely not a good thing, he pursed his lips, and whispered: "My lord, sir."

It took Ruan Jing a while to suppress the panic in his heart, and said hoarsely, "Go to the Prime Minister's Mansion."

"Yes." The coachman sat on the shaft of the carriage obediently, and drove the carriage towards Xiao's house.

The man in black was Chu Wei who was installed by Rong Jiu in the posthouse. When Ruan Jing was conspiring with the King of Lingnan, he hid on the roof not far away, so he could see the situation in the house clearly.

Chu Wei came from the palace, he could come and go freely in the palace, sneaked into the Zichen Palace silently, and presented a box: "Princess,"

"What is this?" Rong Jiu was curious, but when he opened it, his eyes changed slightly, and he asked in surprise, "Could it be the antidote for Jue Hun San?"

"The black one is Jue Hun San, and the white one is the antidote."

"Where did it come from?"

"Given by Ruan Jing," Chu Wei told Rong Jiu, "The Xiao family has already joined hands with the King of Lingnan, and my subordinates listened to Ruan Jing's intention. As long as someone else is killed by Jue Hun San, the King of Lingnan can be cleared of suspicion, but the Xiao family wants Jue Hun San, I'm afraid there are other intentions."

Rong Jiu's eyes were deeply focused, and she landed on the white antidote: "This Jue Hun San is to deal with the Yun Palace. The Xiao family will not give up so easily if they want the blueprint of the firearm."
