"What? Am I poisoned?"

Jiang Nuan's voice was not deliberately lowered. After she heard it, she could no longer maintain her pitiful expression, and her whole face looked a little ferocious.

"Yes, if I guess correctly, someone else should have sent you here. The fragrance on your body is a kind of spice on the surface, but it is actually a kind of poison. This kind of spice is extremely rare. If nothing else, the spice that person gave you should not be much."

These words made her fall into deep thought. There really wasn't much of this spice, and the man repeatedly emphasized that it must be used when hooking up with Jiang Yunsheng. She was a little confused at first, but she finally guessed that the target liked this smell.

I didn't expect it to be poison!

"Miss, I'm still young! I don't want to die! Please save me!"

Her request for help now was much more sincere than before. After all, her life and fortune were really at stake now.

However, Jiang Nuan shook his head and said:

"You don't have to struggle, there is no cure for this poison."

After hearing this, the light in her eyes suddenly dimmed.

At this time, Jiang Nuan pointed in the direction where her accomplice was hiding and continued:

"Not only you, but also your accomplice. He has been with you for so long and has been deeply poisoned. There is no cure for him."

In order to avoid cheating, he stayed a little far away and couldn't hear Jiang Nuan their conversation at all.

After Jiang Nuan pointed out the location of her accomplices, she knew that their plans this time were all within their control.

Devastated, she simply stopped struggling and walked directly in front of her accomplices.

"What are you doing! Why did you come here like this? Have you forgotten our plan?"

The man said angrily.

He has already squandered all the money he got from the scam last time, and now he is counting on her to make a fortune today!

The woman conveyed to him what Jiang Nuan just said.

"No, it's impossible. It must be a lie. I don't believe it!"

The man shook his head, unwilling to believe this.

But he recalled that when he woke up this morning, he really felt uncomfortable all over his body. At that time, he thought it was the sequelae of a hangover. Now that he knew this, he felt that nothing was right.

This thing can't be true, can it?

"It's all your fault. You could have been poisoned yourself, but now you actually hurt me. If I had known I should have strangled you to death!"

The fear of death exposed his true colors.

The woman looked at his strange appearance and was immediately stunned.

He used to be gentle and caring towards her, why did he suddenly change like this now?

"Md, the more I look at you, the more annoyed I become."

As he said that, the man even wanted to make a move on her.

The woman quickly ran towards Jiang Nuan and the others.

However, as she ran, she felt unbalanced.

"It's all your fault. If it weren't for you, how could that group of people poison me? No, we will die together!"

Since she was about to die, she might as well take someone as a backer.

Before she could reach her, she was shot in the chest by an arrow from the guard holding a bow and arrow.

After seeing the man behind him, he turned around and tried to escape, but was still killed with an arrow.

Jiang Yunsheng looked at the bodies of the two people, without any fluctuation in his heart.

"Since they are both dead, let's burn them both together so as not to harm other people."

After all, they are both poisonous, so this is the best way to deal with them.

After dealing with them, Jiang Nuan thought of another more serious problem.

[Guagua, if I remember correctly, the Ran County you mentioned is now the base camp of the Jing Kingdom. Can we still go there? If we go like this, wouldn't it be a sheep entering the tiger's mouth?]

[Yes, the people from the Jing Kingdom have already laid out the trap and are waiting for you to pass by!]

Guagua followed the woman's clues and found some clues, so he told Jiang Nuan.

"Imperial Father, they seem to have been arranged by someone. Now someone is eyeing us, and this is the closest to Ran County. I suspect they are inside Ran County. Should we bypass Ran County and go directly to the next place?"

Jiang Nuan was a little undecided, so he simply asked Jiang Yunsheng directly.

"No, even if we bypass this place, they can still wait for us at the next place. There is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days. Taking advantage of this time to catch them all is the best option."

Jiang Yunsheng shook his head and said.

Escape is not his style, not to mention that with Nuan Nuan around, he can clearly understand what those people are doing behind his back, so there is no need to escape.

"Jiang Yi, replace your men and guards."

Jiang Yunsheng ordered.

Soon, the guards underwent a major change, and now almost all of them are unfamiliar faces.

These people are Shadow Guards who were secretly trained by the royal family. Under the guidance of Jiang Nuan's inner voice, they have changed a wave, and those who remain are all trustworthy people.

Not only that, Jiang Yunsheng has already sent someone with his token to notify the military camp stationed nearby.

After making these preparations, Jiang Yunsheng stood on the carriage, looked in the direction of Ran County, and said:

"Let's go!"

Jiang Nuan is also more inclined to deal with them directly, but she can't reveal her true feelings. Seeing that Imperial Father is prepared, she feels relieved.

The next day, the outline of the Ran County city wall began to slowly appear in front of her eyes.

As the distance got closer, she saw two groups of soldiers guarding the city wall, and she quickly asked Guagua:

[Guagua, see if they have any problems?]

[Host, they are just ordinary soldiers, there is no problem.]

Guagua replied.

Jiang Nuan nodded, it seems that the ambush is not here at the city wall.

[But there is a person on the city wall quietly looking at you, probably to see if the honey trap ahead has succeeded.]

Following Guagua's words, Jiang Nuan looked towards the city wall. Thanks to her good eyesight, she could see the figure that was almost integrated with the city wall.

[Host, I discovered that they are planning to attack the inn at night. Although they all know that they are assassinating the emperor, they are planning to disguise themselves as robbers and steal money.]

That person's status in the Jing Kingdom is not very low, and Guagua learned about their plan for tonight from him.

[Okay, I understand, please Guagua, please read more.]

After successfully entering the city, the carriage drove towards the inn.

Guagua complained to Jiang Nuan while looking at the people on the road:

[This is truly a base camp! Almost one-third of the vendors we met on the road were undercover agents of the Jing Kingdom.]

Jiang Nuan looked at these people and knew what they were doing.

When we arrived at the inn, the waiter greeted us warmly and asked what we wanted to eat.

I almost ate dry food along the way. Fortunately, Jiang Nuan had space and could open a small stove, so it wasn't very painful.

After a while, the food was brought up. When Jiang Nuan was about to use his chopsticks, Guagua said quickly:

[Host, don't eat it, there's something wrong with this dish!]
