Chapter 69 The Poor Cannon Fodder Who is a Master of Medicine and Poison 10
Gu Qian was still immersed in her own thoughts, but she didn't realize that someone was already staring at her.
From the moment Gu Qian entered the room, her beautiful face instantly attracted the attention of people around her. One of the obscene glances came from a fat man with greasy hair and powdered face in the corner.
He looked at Gu Qian secretly, with a malicious smile on his face.
The man signaled to the servants following him with his eyes, then stood up and left the teahouse.
Gu Qian looked at it for a while, felt it was boring, and walked out of the teahouse.
After she walked for a while, she had a keen sense that something was wrong, as if someone was following her.
Realizing that someone was quietly following her, she quickened her pace and walked deeper into the alley.
At this time, several figures blocked her way.
"Are you... from Xiaoyao Palace?" Gu Qian looked at the leader and seemed to have seen him around Xiao Yuanqi.
Xiao Ran nodded slightly, "I and my subordinates are here to protect the girl on the orders of the prince. We just showed up when we found a suspicious person following the girl."
"Thank you." Gu Qian breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why are those women walking so fast? Hurry up!"
Gu Qian vaguely heard the voice coming from behind, so she said to Xiao Ran: "You two should step aside first, let me see what they want to do."
"Yes!" Xiao Ran said and hid with his men.
Gu Qian turned and walked towards the direction of the sound, pretending not to notice them. The group of people quickly caught up with her and surrounded her.
"Little beauty, why are you running? Come and play with your brothers for a while!" The leading man said in a vulgar tone and reached out to touch Gu Qian's face.
Gu Qian quickly dodged to the side and looked at them coldly, "Who are you? How dare you tease a decent woman in broad daylight!"
"Haha, who are we? People you can't afford to offend! If you know what's best for you, just follow us, otherwise..." the man threatened.
"What else?" Gu Qian was not afraid at all, "I am not someone you can easily bully!"
"If you don't accept my toast, you'll have to drink for punishment! Come on!" The man gave an order and his men rushed forward one after another.
Gu Qian nimbly dodged the opponent's attack, then stretched out his hand and waved it forward, and a cloud of white smoke instantly spread out.
Just a moment later, she saw that group of people falling to the ground one after another, their bodies itching and in unbearable pain, and they were wailing.
Gu Qian clapped his hands proudly, looked at his own achievements, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Hmph, you guys think you can trap me? That's just wishful thinking!" Gu Qian said contemptuously.
At this time, the man who was leading the group was so frightened that his face turned pale and he turned around and tried to run away.
"Want to run? No way!" Gu Qian immediately rushed forward and grabbed the man by the collar, "Tell me clearly! Who sent you here?"
"You...you let me go! But I..." the man stammered.
"What are you?" Gu Qian stared at him sharply.
The man replied tremblingly: "I am a subordinate of the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion. If you dare to do anything to me, the eldest son will not let you go!"
Gu Qian sneered, "So he is the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion."
As he spoke, Gu Qian took out a bottle.
"I...it's none of my business!" the man said in horror when he saw Gu Qian's actions, with cold sweat on his forehead.
Looking at the woman's previous actions, you can tell that this is not a good thing.
However, at this moment, the man took advantage of Gu Qian's inattention and quietly took out a sharp dagger from his sleeve. With a flash of determination and ferocity in his eyes, he stabbed towards Gu Qian fiercely.
Xiao Ran had been observing everything in secret. When he saw the man take out the dagger, his heart tightened and he immediately rushed out from the dark. He was very fast, like lightning, and kicked the man's abdomen hard, knocking him to the ground.
"It seems that you are not willing to accept my toast and will have to drink the penalty." Looking at the actions of the man in front of her, Gu Qian gritted her teeth in anger.
If Xiao Ran hadn't come to her rescue in time, she would probably have been injured.
So she squatted down, pinched the man's chin, forced his mouth open, and quickly stuffed a pill into it.
The man wanted to resist, but because Xiao Ran's attack just now was too fierce, he was unable to move for a while.
He could only watch the pill enter his mouth and then swallow it. After a while, the man's body began to tremble and his face turned as pale as paper.
"This is the Heart-Eating Powder I specially made. I hope you like it." Gu Qian stood up and looked coldly at the man lying on the ground.
Heart-Eating Powder is a poison. Although it is not fatal, it can cause people to suffer extreme pain and make life worse than death.
Gu Qian stood up and warned in a cold tone: "Go back and tell your eldest son not to hit on me again, otherwise next time it won't be as easy as today.
After saying that, Gu Qian turned and left, leaving the man groaning in pain. Xiao Ran followed closely behind, and the two disappeared into the darkness together.
After saying that, Gu Qian turned and left, leaving the man groaning in pain.
Seeing this, Xiao Ran quickly caught up with Gu Qian.
Gu Qian turned to look at Xiao Ran: "Thanks to you this time, thank you."
"The prince has instructed us to ensure the girl's safety."
Xiao Ran said, "If you need any help in the future, just ask."
"Yeah." Gu Qian nodded, feeling more grateful towards Xiao Yuanqi.
"By the way, Xiao Ran, do you know anything about the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion? Could what he said just now be a lie?"
Xiao Ran thought for a moment and replied, "To answer your question, young lady, I have seen this person beside the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Wu Jianfeng, so he must not be lying."
"Oh? It seems that he is really the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion! Wu Jianfeng..." Gu Qian nodded thoughtfully.
Gu Qiancai is not that magnanimous. Since you have come to provoke me, you must pay the price.
Besides, she didn't think the prime minister would let her go, so it was better to strike first.
Xiao Ran looked at Gu Qian with some worry. He felt that Miss Gu would not easily forgive the young master of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
But the Prime Minister's Mansion is not easy to deal with. Miss Gu is the prince's savior, and there can't be any mistakes.
You'd better go back and tell the prince.
Under the escort of Xiao Ran and others, Gu Qian returned to Xiaoyao Palace.
She did not tell Yun Yi about this because she was afraid that he would worry and that he would impulsively want to avenge her.
She planned to visit the Prime Minister's residence at night and teach the lustful man a lesson.
At the same time, Xiao Ran was reporting to Xiao Yuanqi what happened today.
He described in detail how Gu Qian was molested and the conflict between them and the young master of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Sir, this is what happened. I feel that the young master of the Prime Minister's Mansion will not let this go, and..."
"I am also worried about Miss Gu. I think Miss Gu seems to have her own plan to report to the young master of the Prime Minister's Mansion."
“If something goes wrong with Miss Gu’s benefactor in the palace…” Xiao Ran frowned, a hint of uneasiness in his tone.
Xiao Yuanqi listened quietly to Xiao Ran's report, his face gradually becoming gloomy.
There were sparks of anger in his eyes, and his hands were clenched tightly with veins bulging, showing his inner unrest.
"I understand. From now on, whenever Miss Gu goes out, you must protect her safety." Xiao Yuanqi said in a low voice.
Prime Minister's Mansion...
Xiao Yuanqi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and laughed coldly: "I didn't want to touch you so quickly. Since you covet someone you shouldn't covet, don't blame me for being rude."
