Song of Peach Blossoms: Alluring Princess

Chapter 47
The winter night was bitterly cold, especially on the water. Ai Xiang picked up the fire in the brazier and yawned.

Su Tiange sat under the oil lamp and read a book. The book was placed by Shen Yu on the carriage, and it recorded strange people and strange things and strange things in the mountains and fields.There are also Shen Yu's comments on it, explaining which ones are credible and which ones are fabricated by later generations.Su Tiange flipped through the pages for a while, straining his ears to listen to the situation outside, but there was no other sound except the whistling wind.

After the two got on the boat, Fang Zhongping didn't know how to get the boatman to leave the boat and go away in the boat.So now there are only the three of them wearing it, but judging from Fang Zhongping's state of madness today, she and Ai Xiang are not his opponents.

There are several rooms on the boat, and the bilge is a large storage space, which Ai Xiang said is full of sundries.I don't know where Fang Zhongping is at the moment, if he is hiding in the corner like a ghost watching them two.

"Girl, would you like to sleep for a while?"

"Come up and sleep." Su Tiange patted the bed beside him. Ai Xiang originally refused, but she couldn't hold back Su Tiange's insistence, so she lay on her side, and soon fell into a deep sleep.Su Tiange listened to Ai Xiang's breathing and closed the book.After listening carefully by the door, I went back to bed and lay down to sleep.

When I woke up the next day, the golden light from the rising sun on the water shone on the window paper again, making it look warm.Su Tiange carefully got out of bed and took down the organ she had placed by the door, a few pieces of wood and a crossbow made of silk thread. In addition, she arranged several embroidery needles on the silk thread.She learned this mechanism from Shen Yu's annotations, plus her experience in Simen Lane, so it was easy to do.

The wood had fallen to the ground, and the silk thread was pulled out of the door along with the embroidery needles. Su Tiange stretched out his hand to pull the silk thread back, and two needles were missing.She carefully put away her things, and then went out the door calmly.I didn't see Fang Zhongping after standing on the bow of the boat for a while, thinking that the acupuncture point felt uncomfortable, he might be healing.

The wind blew all night, and the painting boat had deviated from its original position and drifted towards the opposite bank.A few dead trees on the shore are full of twisted branches. Behind the dead trees, there is smoke rising from the chimneys, like smoke and fog, and the morning light shines through them, transpiring like haze.Su Tiange looked at the scene in front of him, and suddenly remembered Uncle Gui's words, "Apricot blossoms are beautiful in the West Lake in the slight rain, so those few trees must be apricot blossom trees."

Su Tiange took a closer look at the village, somehow felt that he had stayed in such a village in his memory, the old house of the Su family!She remembered that the Su family's old house was here, so it seems that the pharmacopoeia should be in the old house.

"Are you ready to get something?" Fang Zhongping's voice came from behind, with a sinister feeling.

"How do you know about the Su Family Pharmacopoeia? Uncle Gui never told you." Su Tiange turned around and looked at him.

"Hangcheng's Chen family and Fang's family have always been friends. I have been to Hangzhou several times, and I learned from the Chen family that the reason why the Su family was able to monopolize a part of the medicinal material business was because of the Su family's Pharmacopoeia. Later, I learned from the Chen family Li rescued Uncle Gui, so he concluded that Uncle Gui must have known the whereabouts of the Su family's Pharmacopoeia, so he was imprisoned by the Chen family. I rescued him, but he was still on guard against me. Is it you or me who finally brought down the Fang family? What a difference it made to him."

"I still say the same thing, we are all the same in bringing down the Fang family. If I find the Su family's pharmacopoeia, I can extract a copy for you." Su Tiange's words are true, and she can tell that Fang Zhongping He must have been sick or poisoned by some kind of poison, so he wanted to find the Su Family Pharmacopoeia to save his life.

"Hahaha, you are really good at deceiving people." Fang Zhongping didn't continue, but turned and entered the cabin.Su Tiange gathered his cloak, Fang Zhongping came out after a while, and Ai Xiang stood behind him, looking flustered.

"I know what you're thinking, but even if you don't care about my life, don't you care about this girl's life?"

"What did you do?" Su Tiange beckoned Ai Xiang to come over, looked up and down carefully, and nothing unusual happened.

"It's nothing, I just fed her some medicine, which happened to be the same as the poison in my body." Probably because he felt the sun was dazzling, Fang Zhongping looked at Su Tiange and Su Tiange from the corner of his eyes with drooping corners of his eyes.

"Okay, I'll take you there now." Su Tiange supported Ai Xiang, then turned around and pointed to the smoking place on the other side, "It's right there, the old house of the Su family."

"Very good." Fang Zhongping happily walked through the cabin and began to row the boat to the shore.

"Girl, the servant is useless. He stuffed the pill into the servant's mouth before the servant woke up, and threatened to kill the girl immediately if the servant didn't take it." Ai Xiang recovered from her panic and cried.

"It's okay, it's okay." Su Tiange patted Ai Xiang's back, looking at the dead trees getting closer and closer, with a slightly cold expression.

Wow, the boat docked, the extremely fast water slapped the river bank and was pushed back to hit the bottom of the boat, Fang Zhongping fastened the rope, "This girl stays on the boat, you come with me to get things." What else did Ai Xiang say? , was stopped by Su Tiange, she patted the back of Ai Xiang's hand, jumped off the boat, and walked towards the place where the cooking smoke rose.

There are very few pedestrians along the way, and when you meet them, you will look hurried, and the time you pass by will not give you time to talk.The two entered the village, and finally ran into an old man at the gate of a courtyard. After asking the location of the Su family's old house, the two walked towards the middle of the village.Occasionally startled the domestic dog on the side of the road, followed by a barking noise.

Fang Zhongping frowned, and stared at the dog, and the two looked at each other as the dog ran away.

"I remember that the Su family has an unwritten rule. Except for the Su family, no one can understand the Su family's classics about medicinal materials, and no one can cultivate the magical herbs recorded in them."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't mean anything. A smart person like Second Young Master should be able to understand that without me, even if you have no pharmacopoeia, you can only watch it die."

"Go!" Fang Zhongping urged Su Tiange, frowning impatiently.

Seeing the old house getting closer, Su Tiange twisted his palms.There is an alley ahead, if she rushes in and escapes, what are her chances of winning?

She was thinking about how to escape when, hey, an arrow shot from the roof on the right side, piercing Fang Zhongping who was following behind.

Seeing this, Su Tiange hurriedly took two steps. Fang Zhongping turned sideways and saw that Su Tiange was about to run, so he rushed over to catch Su Tiange's cloak.There was a clang, the sound of a knife being unsheathed, and then two men jumped down from the wall, one left and one right, and stopped Fang Zhongping.

what!Fang Zhongping frantically drew out his dagger and fought with the two of them, watching Su Tiange disappear into the alley.

Su Tiange ran for a certain distance in the alley, saw that the exit was not far away, but saw a piece of clothes, someone!

"Young master, my hall master has invited you." The owner of the corner of the clothes came out, and it turned out to be the woman who sang in the teahouse yesterday.

"What can I do?" Su Tiange slowed down and walked towards the woman.

"My lord needs help with a little matter." The woman was probably convinced that Su Tian's singer was powerless, so her expression was indifferent, as relaxed as inviting friends to drink tea.

"What are you going to do with that person?"

"Of course I tied it up and threw it into the lake to feed the fish." The woman smiled as she watched Su Tiange approach and was about to turn around, but a breeze blew, the tip of her nose was filled with fragrance, and then she felt a needle in her waist.The tingling pain made her frown, and she reached out to grab Su Tiange, but found that she couldn't use any strength.

Immediately afterwards, a black man in front of him became unconscious.
