Pampered Consort of the Fragrant Orchard - Chapter 83.4
Chapter 83.4 This Lord Is From Yan Luo Hall! (4)
The curtains were put down. Du Xiao Li retracted the embroidery needle in her hand again.
“Uncle Luo! Why are you stopping me!” Du Ke Xin angrily shouted towards Luo Fu. “I don’t care who’s your master, but I must kill this slut!”
Luo Fu looked to Du Ke Xin with somewhat of a headache, and helplessly said, “Miss, sorry!”
With that said, Luo Fu had Du Ke Xin knocked unconscious.
“Miss!” Xiang Yu saw Du Ke Xin get knocked unconscious and rushed over to have Du Ke Xin snatched over. She cautiously looked to Luo Fu, “Who exactly are you people? Why did you knock miss unconscious?”
Luo Fu didn’t have that much patience towards Xiang Yu and coldly said, “Who we are, you don’t need to worry about. Right now, take your miss and leave immediately!”
Xiang Yu studied the situation before her, knowing that Du Ke Xin’s plan of wanting to kill Du Xiao Li won’t work, so she could only nod her head and support Du Ke Xin onto the horse, before getting on herself.
“You send Ke Xin back, use that small path.” Luo Fu instructed a person behind him.
“Yes.” With that said, that person got on the horse that Xiang Yu came on.
Inside the carriage, Du Xiao Li heard the sound of horses leaving outside, learning that Du Ke Xin left. She looked to the incense burner on the cushion. The incense inside was the poison that she’d just switched out. It was even the one that she raked in from Bai Ning Yuan last time, definitely can let Du Ke Xin never wake up again after falling unconscious!
When Bai Ning Yuan was researching this poison, it was also out of bad intentions. If men were to smell this poison, they will lose consciousness within a quarter of an hour. For women, it will kick into effect the first time they fall asleep. Moreover, the antidote for this was also very mean. It was unusually bitter and smelly, and after eating, one’s body will stink for ten days to half a month. If the poison isn’t taken care of within seven days, then that person will forever sink into a coma, never to wake up again.
Of course, that was the antidote developed by Bai Ning Yuan. His original intention was to mess with people, so that’s why he had the antidote made like that. She’d once studied this poison before. The antidote although is somewhat bitter, it won’t be smelly.
Right now, whenever she went out, she would always carry silver needles and some poison on her. Only this one was able to knock someone unconscious, thus she had the antidote shared with the others, and after eating the antidote, she had the poison thrown into the incense burner.
Originally she wanted to use it against the kidnappers, but unexpectedly, it was used on Du Ke Xin!
Earlier, Du Ke Xin entered the carriage to kill her, and inadvertently got poisoned. Then, she also got knocked unconscious by Luo Fu. Although the person was sent back, but after returning, don’t think about waking up either.
Seeing Du Ke Xin get taken away, Luo Fu waved his hand and said, “Have the people in the carriage brought out! We need to evacuate quickly.”
“Yes.”
Two people came before the horse carriage and jumped on top, wanting to enter to bring Du Xiao Li and them out. As soon as the carriage curtains were pulled open, both of them got kicked and rolled down from the carriage in a sorry state.
“What happened?”
Luo Fu and the others swiftly reacted, having the horse carriage surrounded.
“Boss, the people inside are awake!” The two that got kicked held their stomach in pain.
“Awake?”
The carriage curtains were pulled open once again. Xia Yuan and Ying Ge came out from inside and jumped to the two sides of the carriage, pulling open the carriage curtains for Du Xiao Li, letting her come out.
When Luo Fu saw the three of them, his expression sunk, “You all didn’t lose consciousness?”
“We did lose consciousness, but we woke up.” Du Xiao Li said.
At this time, Yin Yue Xuan, who’d already left, secretly returned, hiding atop a large tree, watching the situation below. Although Du Xiao Li said once he has brought them to the meeting place, she will have the antidote sent to Feng Xue Lou afterwards. This way, he will be able to complete the mission, and she will also be able to learn who wants to kidnap her.
But he really didn’t feel reassured at all! If she were to accidentally kick the bucket, then wouldn’t he also have to drop dead too? That’s why, after leaving, he decided to return, planning on helping out when Du Xiao Li is in danger. Seeing the three still completely calm, despite being surrounded by the men in black, he inwardly praised their composure.
Luo Fu didn’t expect that Du Xiao Li and them would actually wake up. Thinking that they previously didn’t have the slightest movement, he guessed that they must have just woken up. “Hmph, even if you all are awake, the result is still the same. Have them tied up!”
Hearing their boss’s order, three people went forward, wanting to have them tied up. Unexpectedly, as soon as they approached, they each received a kick, flying far far away.
“You all know martial arts?!” Luo Fu looked to Du Xiao Li in shock. In the information they received previously, it didn’t say that Du Xiao Li and her servant girls knew martial arts. He thought that the three of them were just ordinary girls, so even if they were awake, it wouldn’t matter, because he would still be able to take them away. Unexpectedly, all three knew martial arts, and moreover, to be able to send a grown man flying in one kick, their martial arts weren’t weak!
Yin Yue Xuan was watching the situation the whole time. Seeing Xia Yuan have the person before her sent flying, he instinctively reached out and touched the wound on his neck.
This girl appeared quiet and gentle, but was really vicious inside!
“Who sent you all here?” Although it was no use knowing, Ying Ge still asked.
“Go up together, quickly catch them and leave.” Luo Fu ordered.
He’d been living in the capital the entire time, so naturally he knew about the relationship between Du Xiao Li and Han Ming Yi, and was also aware of Han Ming Yi’s ability. Although the people of Yan Luo Hall were efficient, he still can’t guarantee that Han Ming Yi won’t discover Du Xiao Li’s disappearance, and then chase after them following the clues.
That man can’t be treated as an average person!
“Having gone missing for this long, father must be worried. You all move quickly, we need to return quickly, else we can’t enter the city once they sky darkens.” Du Xiao Li calmly said.
“I haven’t properly fought with anyone in a long time. These hands are already itching.” Ying Ge said and then charged forward with Xia Yuan, clashing with the people that charged towards them.
This can be considered their first time fighting with someone since coming to the capital. In the past, the would occasionally spar once in a while, but ever since coming to the capital, they’ve been continuously busy. It has already been so long since they were last this satisfied.
Ying Ge held a sword in hand, Xia Yuan took down the white silk around her waist, and Du Xiao Li held a silver needle in hand. The three handled the ten some people with ease, and very soon, quite a few men in black collapsed.
“With their martial arts this good, no wonder they said they didn’t need my help.” Yin Yue Xuan watched the three effortlessly deal with the enemy, and muttered, “Didn’t expect that woman to be that vicious, yet was this good at wielding the white silk. Quick, fierce, and accurate, and even carried a kind of aesthetic, much better looking than that little girl’s killing in one stab of the needle.”
If someone was present, then they would definitely make fun of his words. To say the other party had a sense of aesthetic in killing, even having a look of appreciation on the face, was this person’s brain really functioning normally?
Luo Fu didn’t expect that Du Xiao Li and them would be this good at martial arts, especially Du Xiao Li, nearly having all his people killed off. He furiously shouted and flew towards Du Xiao Li.
Du Xiao Li saw Luo Fu, and shot an embroidery needle towards him, yet it was deflected by his palm, stabbing into a tree branch to the side, as he rapidly closed in towards her……….
T/N: Regular chapter will probably be reduced to twice a week for month of August. I have to take on extra freelance work to help pay bills, so I won’t have as much time to work on cnovel translations.
