Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 27
Chapter 027 Tied Up by Horse Bandits
Liu Shun asked, “But … why did we increase the price of Shanglu together with the other medicine halls and sell more?”
Shen Jishang Lu didn’t have much to do with Boss Xu. If he wanted to do business with Boss Xu, he had to buy Shang Lu from other pharmacies, and our Shang Lu’s prices were rising. Those people would definitely want to buy Shang Lu first when they saw that Shang Lu was selling well and the prices were rising. “Bai Junzhuo explained.
Liu Shun thought about it.
“Also, last night, I learned from Shen Rui that they only lacked 4,000 jin. They will probably be able to collect it in less than three days. When that time comes, we will resume the price of Shanglu.”
Liu Shun nodded, “Shen Ji will definitely be seriously injured this time.”
“That’s what they deserve.” Bai Junzhuo snorted coldly.
She, Bai Junzhuo, would never take the initiative to hurt anyone. Even if there was competition in business, it was still fair and square. But since Shen Ji had planted spies in the Bai Clan’s Medicine Hall, this account could not be ignored.
Bai Junzhuo did not finish handling the affairs of the Medicine Hall until the evening. He checked the accounts again before planning to leave the Medicine Hall.
The last group of clerks came out of the medicine hall together. Just as Bai Junzhuo was about to return to the manor, Mo Ying suddenly appeared and said, “Miss Bai, Master wants you to come over.”
Only then did Bai Junzhuo realize that he had been busy with the matters of the Medicine Hall and had forgotten who the true boss of the Bai Clan was.
“Let’s go.”
Probably because Bai Junzhuo was injured last night and had prepared a carriage, Mo Ying drove the carriage all the way to Yin Manor.
When they arrived at Yin Xun’s mansion, Mo Ying brought Bai Junzhuo to the courtyard.
Yin Xun stood with his hands behind his back, and in front of him were seven or eight men with wounds all over their bodies. Bai Junzhuo looked at them strangely, “What’s wrong?”
Yin Xun glanced at the people kneeling on the ground and looked at Bai Junzhuo. “Do you know who they are?”
Bai Junzhuo looked at them and shook his head. “I don’t know them. Even my parents probably won’t recognize their injuries.”
Yin Xun chuckled, his voice clearly carrying a trace of an oracle, “What, do you still think they’re pitiful?”
“Miss Bai, they were the ones who attacked you last night.” Mo Ying reminded from the side.
Bai Junzhuo’s expression changed drastically. He pulled a man’s hair and slapped him. He scolded, “You dare to bully me?! Speak! Who ordered you!”
Mo Ying and Yin Xun were both stunned. They didn’t expect Bai Junzhuo to behave like this at all. The man was originally beaten half to death by Mo Ying, but now he was slapped again and spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Of course, you don’t have to,” Bai Junzhuo shook his hand in disgust. “I know who tried to harm me.”
“Third Miss Bai, please spare me …” The capable person hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy. “It was Miss Bai who told us to harm you. It’s none of our business, and we didn’t succeed. Please spare us …”
Bai Junzhuo looked up at Yin Xun.
Yin Xun said indifferently, “I’m bullying you. If you say spare me, then spare me. If you say kill me, then kill me.”
When those people heard this, they kowtowed again and begged for mercy.
“Killed? That would be too easy for you!” Bai Junzhuo rolled his eyes and said, “From now on, you will be working hard in the Bai Clan’s Medicine Hall until I am satisfied. I will let you go. Otherwise, the life I gave you today will be taken back one day!”
Let them wander in front of Bai Juntao every day, reminding her of what she had done, and she would die from the diaphragm!
Hearing Bai Junzhuo say that he wouldn’t kill them, how could they dare to ask for anything else? They hurriedly kowtowed in agreement.
“Scram!” Under Bai Junzhuo’s command, those people ran out.
After the group of people left, Bai Junzhuo turned to look at Yin Xun and said, “Thank you.”
“No need,” Yin Xun said indifferently. “It was Mo Ying who found him, and he also beat him up. Thank him.”
Bai Junzhuo looked at Mo Ying again, only to see him scratching his head embarrassedly. Only then did she realize that ever since she had saved Lu Kang, Mo Ying had treated her exceptionally well. He was indeed a person who valued love and righteousness.
“Thank you, Mo Ying.” After thanking him, Bai Junzhuo asked Yin Xun, “Is there anything else Young Master wants me to do?”
Yin Xun thought for a moment and said, “Since I know that your eldest sister wants to harm you, what are you going to do next?”
“Don’t interfere!” Bai Junzhuo hurriedly said, “I have a way to deal with her. If you interfere, you might ruin my entire plan and provoke Grandma!”
Yin Xun glanced at Bai Junzhuo and said coldly, “Miss Bai, did you forget that when I helped the Bai Clan, you seemed to have sold yourself to me along with the Medicine Hall? You’re my man, so I can’t interfere in your affairs?”
“You …” Bai Jun gritted his teeth and asked, “Then does Young Master have anything else to do?”
Yin Xun lowered his eyes, pondered for a moment, and said to Mo Ying, “Go and see how Lu Kang’s injuries are.”
Mo Ying looked at Yin Xun strangely, but he didn’t ask any further as he walked towards Lu Kang’s courtyard.
“There’s nothing else. Let me send Miss Bai back to the manor.” Yin Xun slowly took a step forward and walked to Bai Junzhuo’s side.
“You? In person?” Bai Junzhuo suspected that he had heard wrongly.
“What?” Yin Xun’s pitch-black eyes shattered, and the corners of his mouth curved into a beautiful arc.
“Nothing much” Bai Junzhuo hurriedly moved his eyes away and said, “It’s my honor to have the Big Boss personally send me off.”
Yin Xun stopped talking. Bai Junzhuo followed him out of the manor. The two of them were extremely slow, unlike rushing home, but like walking. The moonlight was fine tonight, and the shadows of the two people on the ground were close together.
‘”Young Master Yin, if you have something to say to me, then hurry up and say it. If you don’t say it, I’ll be home soon.” Bai Junzhuo felt awkward and finally couldn’t help but say, “There’s nothing else to say along the way. The atmosphere is getting weirder and weirder, and Bai Junzhuo feels awkward in his heart.”
Yin Xun had always wanted to speak, but what he wanted to say was a secret that had been hidden for more than twenty years. He had been hesitating whether this seventeen-year-old girl was worth trusting or not.
He looked up at the sky. Tonight, it was half a month.
“You” Bai Junzhuo looked at his pale face and noticed something was wrong. He carefully asked, “Are you hypoglycemic? Why is your face so pale and your lips so pale?”
Yin Xun looked down at her, puzzled, “What is hypoglycemia?”
“This …”
Just as Bai Junzhuo was hesitating to explain, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from not far away.
Why are there horse hooves? Luoyang City has always had its own rules. In the future, you are not allowed to roam around the city on horseback.
Not long after, a burst of flames appeared in his field of vision. A large group of people rode their horses and rushed over.
Yin Xun reached out and hugged Bai Junzhuo’s waist. With a spin, he pushed her against the corner of the wall and pressed her into his embrace.
“Don’t say anything. It’s a horse bandit.” Yin Xun whispered in her ear.
Horse bandits! Bai Junzhuo remembered the news she had heard about this group of bandits a few days ago. Why had she always been unlucky when she wore it? Small probability incidents occurred frequently. It was simply as if she had been “lucky”.
Bai Junzhuo did not dare to move. She leaned against his chest and listened to his heartbeat unconsciously, but soon she noticed that there was something wrong with his heart rate.
She raised her head and asked curiously, “In an emergency, your heart should be beating faster. But why is your heart beating slower than a normal person’s?”
Yin Xun glanced at her and did not answer. He then looked at the bandits and said to himself, “Did this horse-like boat grow up eating grass? It actually let the bandits come to the city.”
Only then did Bai Junzhuo realize that this was not the time to discuss the man’s body in front of him. Those bandits could discover them at any time.
“There are so many people. We will definitely not be able to escape if we are discovered.” Bai Junzhuo also secretly glanced at it and whispered.
Yin Xun nodded, “Normally, it’s fine, but not tonight.”
Bai Junzhuo lowered his eyes and thought of a way to escape. Yin Xun suddenly said, “Let’s go back.”
Without giving Bai Junzhuo time to react, he pulled her back. Bai Junzhuo touched his hand and asked in surprise, “Why is your hand so cold?”
“Who’s over there?!” When the bandits who were robbing nearby heard the sound, the torch shone over.
Yin Xun frowned as he pulled out a soft sword that looked like a belt from his waist.
“Oh, there’s a pretty girl here.” The leader of the bandits held his chin and laughed lascivious as he walked towards Bai Junzhuo.
Just as Yin Xun was about to draw his sword, his heart suddenly ached. He supported his chest and knelt down. When Bai Jun Zhuo saw this, he said to the bandits, “He is a sick man, and I am a woman. You can take advantage of him!”
“Hahaha” The group of bandits laughed and said in the lead, “This girl is completely unclear about the situation. Can we, who are robbers, still be gentlemen?”
They walked to Bai Junzhuo’s side and were about to reach out when someone suddenly reported, “The big boss, the people from the government are here!”
“What?” The smile on the bandit leader’s face disappeared. He glanced at Bai Junzhuo and Yin Xun and said, “Let’s go. Bring them along!”
“Yes!” As he spoke, the group of bandits stuffed Bai Junzhuo and Yin Xun into the carriage.

Yin Manor, Mo Ying said to Lu Kang in confusion, “Why do you think Master wants me to come over to see you again? Other than taking care of things, I’ll stay with you the rest of the time, so I naturally know your injuries …”
Lu Kang smiled like a fox and said, “I want to create an opportunity to be alone with Miss Bai. If nothing unexpected happens, my hidden guard will also be dismissed.”
“What?” Mo Ying asked in surprise, “But tonight is the full moon, and Master is alone. Will he be in danger?”
Lu Kang shook his head. “With Master’s skill, even if the moon is full tonight, he can still protect himself.”
Mo Ying heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, but he suddenly raised his head and said, “Why does master want to be alone with Miss Bai? Could it be that master is talking to Miss Bai …”
Lu Kang raised his hand and gave him a shudder. “Is Yours Truly such a person who doesn’t care about the overall situation? Whether he has such thoughts towards Miss Bai or not, he won’t reveal them at this time. You should know that Yours Truly’s illness is a taboo. Other than the people whom Yours Truly trusts, you can’t let anyone else notice it at all!”
“Oh” Mo Ying scratched his head.
