Chapter 300 Do you want to kill me to silence me?

"Are you the son of the Regent of the Northern Desert?"

Yi Lan couldn't help but be surprised when Gao Junning revealed his identity.

Recently, she had been busy at Su Liluo's pharmacy. Su Liluo often gave her some strange medicines to study, and they were all medicines she had never seen before.

This greatly piqued her interest, so she lost all interest in anything else.

She carefully considered Gao Junning's words. If, as he said, Su Liluo could be arrested without implicating her, and he could then hand Su Liluo over to her for disposal, that seemed like a good option.

The strength of the Northern Desert people should not be underestimated. They certainly have many experts who can capture Su Liluo. If Su Liluo commits a crime, they can simply say they are there to avenge her when they capture her, and the Emperor of Liang will not send anyone to rescue her.

As for the crown prince, he certainly wouldn't dare to openly search for him.

Looking at it this way, it seems that their chances of winning are quite high.

Yi Lan's heart began to waver.

"Of course, if you don't believe me, you can investigate it yourself. You can also consider the cooperation I mentioned to you today for a few days. If you've made up your mind, then go to the entrance of the Regent's Palace where we are temporarily staying and place a bouquet of white flowers."

Gao Junning nodded.

He had just seen the wavering in Yi Lan's eyes, and he knew that this woman would agree.

Sure enough, a few days later, Yi Lan did investigate Gao Junning and found that his identity was real. She then pondered for a long time.

Ultimately, she decided to agree to Gao Junning's request and take the risk.

After all, this was no small matter for Gao Junning; failure would be a major issue between the two countries.

She thought that Gao Junning must have been absolutely certain of success to dare to take on this task.

Seven days later.

A large crowd had gathered in front of what used to be the most bustling pharmacy in the imperial city.

One of the open spaces contained numerous corpses with bluish-purple faces and gruesome deaths.

"Luo Xuantang, your medicine killed my son! I don't care, you have to give me an explanation today! My son has only taken the medicine I bought from you these past few days, besides his own porridge!"

"Waaah, my mother too. It wasn't a serious illness, but I trusted Luo Xuantang's medicine. I thought it was cheap and effective, so I came here to buy medicine. I never expected that she would die after taking it!"

“We don’t care who your backers are, your medicine killed our loved ones, so you have to pay with your lives and go to jail!”

......

In an instant, wails filled the air at the entrance of the pharmacy, and many people were clamoring for justice.

The area was surrounded by a large crowd of people, who were pointing and discussing the Luoxuan Hall.

The servants of Luo Xuantang stood at the door, trying their best to explain, their foreheads covered in beads of sweat, but no one believed them.

Many people were furious as they looked at the corpses lying on the ground.

"Why hasn't the boss arrived yet? Have you sent someone to inform him?"

Seeing that the people were becoming increasingly agitated and the crowd was growing larger, while Su Liluo was still nowhere to be seen, the steward of Luoxuan Hall anxiously inquired of the servant beside him.

"Manager, we've already sent someone to inform them, but the owner lives quite a distance away, so it will take them some time to get here!"

The servant answered just as anxiously.

Seeing so many people making a scene here, especially the corpses lying at the entrance, they were terrified.

These people were the ones who bought medicine from their store yesterday and the day before. They didn't remember buying any special medicine or selling any poison. So how did so many people die?

When Su Liluo received the news, she was so shocked that she dropped the teacup in her hand.

"Quickly, have someone prepare a car and head to Luoxuan Hall immediately!"

After being stunned for a moment, she immediately had a car prepared and rushed to the pharmacy.

"What exactly happened?"

After getting off the carriage, Su Liluo pushed through the crowd and went straight to the entrance of the pharmacy.

When she saw the corpses lying in front of her pharmacy, her expression changed drastically.

“These people…”

"Boss, you've finally arrived! These are the people who bought medicine from our pharmacy yesterday. After taking our medicine, they all died the next day. Now they all say there's something wrong with our medicine!"

When the manager of Luoxuan Hall saw Su Liluo coming over, he immediately went over to explain as if he had seen a savior.

At this moment, the people also noticed Su Liluo and began pointing at her and cursing her indiscriminately.

"So you're the owner of Luo Xuantang? I never imagined that such a young woman could have killed so many people. You have such a vicious heart!"

"I was praising the owner of Luoxuan Hall just a while ago, saying she must be kind-hearted and like a Buddha or Bodhisattva. I never imagined she would be so vicious, killing so many people!"

"My daughter had just come of age and was about to get married, but now you've killed her! You little woman, I demand you pay for my daughter's life!"

"So she's the owner here! She's the one who killed our family members! Let's all take her to the authorities! We're going to sue her and have the authorities chop off her head!"

As they talked, some of them started rushing towards Su Liluo.

"How dare you! All of you, stand back!"

Just as the common people were about to encounter Su Liluo, Ye Lin and her guards, who were secretly protecting Su Liluo, all came out to protect her.

"What do you want? Are you trying to kill us to cover your tracks? You've killed so many people, and now you want to threaten us with knives? Where is justice?!"

"Report to the authorities! Everyone, hurry and report to the authorities! We can't let these bad people get away!"

"Yes, we can't let her get away. She definitely wants to make a lot of money off us and then run away. The medicines in her pharmacy are probably all problematic!"

Someone in the crowd started it, and everyone's emotions were stirred up again.

The people were initially a little scared when they saw the guards draw their swords, but now they were in complete chaos.

"Your Highness, why don't you leave first? The situation here is not good."

Ye Lin frowned as she looked at the unruly crowd and said to Su Liluo.

If this stalemate continues, it's hard to guarantee that the people won't do something impulsive.

Although they were responsible for protecting the Crown Princess's safety, they could not indiscriminately slaughter ordinary people, especially those who were residents of the Great Liang Imperial City.

Su Liluo naturally realized this as well, but he still sighed at Ye Lin.

"I'm afraid we can't leave now. Look over there, the government officials are already here."

Following Su Liluo's gaze, Ye Lin saw that on the other side of the crowd, several men dressed in government and military uniforms were walking towards them with serious expressions.
