Chapter 43 Would a great hero give such a disgusting look?

Give me an extra thousand taels of silver?

The bandits were immediately tempted. They lived a life of constant danger, and if they dared to take another risk, they could earn an extra thousand taels of silver.

Why not?

Moreover, this young lady is here to help.

So they immediately agreed.

After disguising themselves, the bandits' leader led two henchmen down the mountain with Su Wanshi.

At this time, after the Su family reported the incident to the authorities, the government officials quickly dispatched people to search everywhere.

Su Liluo and the others first went to an inn to stay.

The inn wasn't crowded, and Su Liluo and her companions were having lunch at a window seat on the second floor.

Although this is a small county town outside the imperial city, the conditions here are not too bad.

Su Liluo and her group ordered a large table of delicacies and plenty of fresh fruit, and ate there with great enjoyment.

Jiang Qinshu, on the other hand, had no appetite at all. Ever since Su Wanshi disappeared, she had been unable to eat or sleep properly.

Seeing Su Liluo eating so heartily, she was furious!

But seeing Jiang Qinshu's appearance only made Su Liluo feel more and more pleased.

"Second Aunt, come on, have something to eat. It's been a whole night, you should try to think more positively."

Su Liluo smiled, seemingly offering Jiang Qinshu words of comfort.

Jiang Qinshu said, holding her breath, "I'm not like the Crown Princess, who is heartless and has no appetite."

"How dare you! You've insulted the Crown Princess! Apologize now!"

Upon seeing this, Ranmei suddenly shouted at Jiang Qinshu.

Jiang Qinshu was furious at this moment and had no idea about hierarchy.

Especially when she saw that the person yelling at her was a maid from her own household.

He immediately cursed, "You little bitch, you're just a servant from our Su family, how dare you bully others like this!"

"How dare you! Who did you call a little bitch!"

At this moment, Su Liluo spoke.

Jiang Qinshu replied without hesitation, "That little bitch insulted her! How dare that stinking maid lecture me!"

"Oh, so it was that little bitch who called Ranmei that? Then Ranmei shouldn't take it to heart, since she herself called herself a little bitch."

Su Liluo chuckled, and Ranmei, who was originally angry, couldn't help but cover her mouth and burst out laughing.

Jiang Qinshu finally realized what was happening, and was so angry she could hardly breathe: "You...you..."

Just as she was about to continue her tirade, Su Xuanlang's joyful voice suddenly came from outside.

"Mother, Wanshi is back! She's alright!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qinshu immediately ran out.

Su Liluo also glanced outside in surprise. How did she manage to escape back here?

Su Wanshi followed behind Su Xuanlang, her face clean and without a trace of dishevelment, with three strange men following behind her.

However, Su Liluo felt that the face looked vaguely familiar, but she still couldn't remember where it was.

Jiang Qinshu grabbed Su Wanshi and burst into tears.

"Waaah, my Wanshi, your second aunt was so worried about you! Are you alright? How did it go? Did you catch those bandits? I'm going to tear them to pieces!"

Su Wanshi comforted Jiang Qinshu: "Second Aunt, don't worry, I'm fine. I met some kind heroes on the way, they rescued me and brought me back."

A kind-hearted hero?

Su Liluo, who overheard this, raised an eyebrow. Someone really is that kind? What a coincidence?

She looked at Su Wanshi again, just as Su Wanshi was looking at Su Liluo.

"Your Highness, are you alright?"

Even though she was the one who had been kidnapped, she still asked Su Liluo with concern.

At this moment, the three men behind her also glanced at Su Liluo.

The group's eyes lit up; she was much prettier than Su Wanshi!

Su Liluo also noticed the men staring at her and instantly felt unwell.

Would a group of heroes who save lives give such disgusting looks?

At the same time, Xiao Ye, who was beside him, also sensed these things.

He yelled at the men, "What are you looking at!"

Although the three men did not know that this was the Crown Prince, they involuntarily lowered their heads upon hearing his majestic voice.

Xiao Ye possessed an innate nobility and disdain.

Su Wanshi quickly explained, "Your Highness, please don't misunderstand. They are the heroes who saved me. I really owe my return to them."

"Oh, really?"

Su Liluo said with great interest.

Su Wanshi was a little nervous, but she still tried to remain calm and said, "The place they are going happens to be the same as ours. To thank them for saving our lives, I want them to travel with us."

"It's only right. Wanshi and the others saved you, so we should thank them properly."

At this moment, Jiang Qinshu quickly spoke up.

Seeing that Su Wanshi was safe and sound, she was overjoyed and felt that bringing a few people along was not out of the question.

Su Liluo didn't say much after hearing this, but turned around and glanced at Xiao Ye. The two seemed to have similar thoughts.

It seems Su Wanshi is courting disaster again!

However, that's not good either. If she doesn't cause trouble, what excuse will I have to deal with her?

So they said nothing.

The Su family paid hush money to the county officials, asking them not to reveal that Su Wanshi had been found after her disappearance.

Then they arranged for the three bandits in disguise to stay at the inn, planning to set off with them the next day.

late at night.

The night was dark and the wind was high; the inn was quiet except for the occasional chirping of insects nearby.

Once Su Wanshi was sure that there were no guards around Su Liluo, only two maids keeping watch outside the door, she ordered the three bandits to begin their operation.

At this moment, Su Liluo and Xiao Ye are living separately. To outsiders, it is normal that Xiao Ye is disabled and the two do not live together.

Su Liluo was sleeping in the room when suddenly a wisp of smoke blew in through the window.

She accidentally inhaled a little bit and felt dizzy, but at the same time, she felt a little strange.

I wasn't sleepy at all just now, so why do I suddenly feel so sleepy?

"Master, someone has drugged you with sleeping gas!"

Just as she was about to fall asleep, she heard the voice of the artifact spirit in her consciousness.

Su Liluo barely managed to muster her last shred of consciousness before saying, "Quickly give me the antidote!"

Immediately, a small brown ball appeared in her palm.

She quickly took the medicine, and her mind finally cleared up.

Following the faint light, she saw three tall, imposing figures push open the door and enter, while the maid outside had already fainted on the ground.

The three men cautiously approached Su Liluo, preparing to carry her on their backs.

Suddenly, the woman on the bed sat up.

"What's going on? You—"

The bandit was taken aback, and before he could finish speaking, he was struck in the chest.

"Help! There's an assassin!"

Su Lilu shouted.

Xiao Ye, who was staying in the next room, hadn't been able to sleep. Upon hearing the cry for help, he immediately called out to Ye Han, who was hiding in the shadows.

"Go quickly and protect the Crown Princess!"

On the other side, seeing that their plan had been exposed, the three bandits decided to go all the way and went up to forcibly take Su Liluo away.
