Chapter 90: Inhumanity (1st update)
There were still a few hours until Yinshi, and many people began to look for a place to rest for a while.
Nalanjing visited a medical clinic, bought a lot of medicinal materials from them, and started preparing poison.
All the poisons made at home have been used up.
With her current skills, she must mix some poison to defend herself.
Su Shirong asked the secret guard to huddle in Qin Shouzheng's concubine's room on his behalf.
He started at Yinshi in the early morning, there were still a few hours left, and he still had things to do.
He asked the two secret guards who were fighting with Su Zimo today to take him back to see Su Zimo.
Su Zimo already knew that the relationship between father and son was at loggerheads, but he did not expect that it would reach the point of death between you and me.
However, this was far less impactful than Su Zhi's raising of a private army.
According to the laws of the imperial court, supporting private armies and conspiring to treason are capital crimes that implicate the nine clans.
How dare he, how dare he?
Seeing the anger on his face, Su Shirong breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
He was also worried that Su Zimo would protect Su Zhi because he was from the Su family. Obviously Su Zimo understood the seriousness of the matter better, how could he make fun of the fate of the entire Su family just for the sake of thin family ties.
—
Time was tight, and Nalanjing couldn't mix too complicated a poison, so he made some more Ruanjin Powder.
After Su Shirong came back from Su Mansion, his eyes lit up when he saw Nalanjing making medicine: "Mrs. Rong, is this the Ruanjin Powder that Shi Qin mentioned?"
Nalanjing looked at Su Shirong blankly: "Liu Yan and I bought a pack, Shiqin should not have it~"
Sure enough, Su Shirong's eyes lit up instantly, "Miss Rong, can you have some extra tendons and sell them to me?"
Superfluous?
Nalanjing took out ten packs of white powder medicine: "Is this enough, sir?"
Although Su Shirong had never seen the efficacy of Ruanjin Powder, he had heard that a pack of medicine could kill five or six masters. With these medicines on his body, even if his martial arts was not high, he could protect himself at critical moments.
Su Shirong took the ten packs of Ruanjin Powder and looked at him gratefully: "Thank you so much, Miss Rong, for your help. I'll give it to you how much this powder costs."
Su Shirong was not a greedy person. It was not easy for Nalanjing to spend money to buy these medicinal materials in the middle of the night. He was sweating profusely from pounding the medicines and it was extremely hard. He must pay.
Nalanjing felt that the bandage on her chest was a little tight, and she broke into a sweat while applying the medicine. She wished she could tear it off now. At this time, she wiped the sweat from her forehead and said in a weak tone: "I sold it to Liu Yan for one hundred taels."
"One pack, sir, since you want it, then let's consider it..." It's a little cheaper, after all, I asked for ten packs, so I took the quantity.
Miss Rong wants to say, forget it?
Absolutely not! Su Shirong quickly interrupted her: "Miss Rong has set the price, how can she change it at will?"
Nalanjing: "???"
Seeing that she was too weak to speak, Su Shirong sighed: "I know very well that Miss Rong and Brother Rong are people who value love and righteousness. They risked their lives to help Brother Zhou and I punish dissidents and fought side by side with us.
He doesn’t distinguish between you and me, so naturally he doesn’t want to take my money.”
Nalanjing's weak breathing was stagnant. When did she mean this?
The bandage was too tight, so she took a deep breath: "Young Master..."
Su Shirong said quickly: "Miss, please take a rest first. You are sweating profusely and are very tired. I will collect this medicine first. Ten packs of medicine are one thousand taels. I happened to have so many banknotes with me."
He took out a brocade bag with excellent embroidery work from his sleeve and gave it to Nalanjing.
Nalanjing: "..."
Nalanjing finally understood the feelings of Rong Yu and Rong Qiansuan Su Shiqin.
Carrying a thousand taels with you is like throwing away a few pieces of silver at will. This is really inhumane.
Su Shirong left with Ruanjinsan. He wanted to discuss the details of tomorrow morning's battle with the secret guards below.
The matter was of great importance, and for the sake of the lives and property of thousands of soldiers and the safety of the people in the city, he had to be extremely cautious.
Nalanjing felt uncomfortable with the strangulation, so he simply stopped and got up and went to the equipment store.
The equipment warehouse was very large, and even though the lights were on, it was still dim.
Rong Xuan was dismantling the trap when he heard the sound and his clear eyes met hers.
Nalanjing was still wearing the same men's clothes, and smelled slightly of alcohol. His long hair was tied back, and a beautiful and unimpaired face appeared in front of him.
Rong Xuan's clear eyes flashed with warmth, she could always play with his heartstrings easily and make him excited.
Nalanjing came up and helped him dismantle the trap.
The Crown Princess of Da Chen had spent several years in the military, and she knew all the equipment used to defend and siege the city.
Southern Chu's national strength was not as good as that of Da Chen, and it relied on Da Chen for survival, so its equipment naturally lagged far behind.
Rong Xuan seems to have done a lot of research. He dismantled the organs and reorganized them, and the power was actually much stronger.
Nalanjing occasionally made a few remarks inadvertently, and he understood it instantly and did a good job.
What they modified were common mechanisms used to defend the city, such as transmitters and tiger drops.
The transmitter is six feet long, and its biggest feature is that it can rotate left and right and fire crossbows. Rong Xuan and Nalanjing replaced its gears to make it easier for the operator to control the push.
.
The tiger drop is a mechanism to hinder the enemy's attack. It sharpens the wooden stakes and then buries them deep in the fortresses along the way. When the private cavalry invades, what they face is: there are crossbows on them to kill people.
The horse has sharp wooden thorns piercing its legs.
With such a two-pronged approach, the private army will naturally be wary.
As for the real power, it also depends on the combat detection ability of the private army.
However, since they are private armies and killers, they have always relied on martial arts, and they have always despised the regular army's formation strength as useless. In addition, there is no defense for the soldiers and horses of the city. Due to multiple reasons, it is the soldiers and horses of the city that have the best chance of winning.
.
As for other equipment, time was limited, so I selected some and asked the soldiers to move to the tower and deploy them in advance before departure.
The movement should not be too loud, otherwise it will alert the private troops on the outskirts of the city and easily alert others, making people suspicious.
A moment before Yin hour in the early morning, Rong Xuan and the county magistrate began to go to Zhao Mansion.
Zhou Gu and Li Wei began to prepare their troops and headed for the camp outside the city.
The three thousand soldiers and horses did not know Rong Xuan's plan. They believed in military orders like mountains.
Li Wei had the government seal and the token of defense in his hand. He was Qin Shouzheng's confidant. Li Wei usually led the troops in training, and no one questioned his orders.
As for Qin Shouzheng's other three cronies, Li Wei took Su Shirong's secret guards and killed them secretly in advance to avoid causing trouble.
Zhao Mansion!
Zhao Tongzhi always felt that everything was not going well in recent days. The people he sent out to assassinate Su Shirong and Zhou Gu never came back. He always felt that there was a big hand secretly targeting them.
Is it Mr. Suhou?
Su Zhi is his second uncle, so he has no reason to do this. Even if he has some brotherhood with Su Shirong, Su Zhi's future is bright. Su Shirong has not yet entered the official career and has no prospects. Which is more important or less important? The Su family should know better than anyone else what to do.
Do.
