"Yes, Master."
Xunfeng and Moyu cupped their fists at the same time and replied respectfully.
Because Gu Ruoyun had moved out of Hundred Herb Hall, Ling Yu and Zuo Shangchen were left empty-handed. Zuo Shangchen didn't say much and turned to leave. However, Ling Yu wasn't so easily dismissed …
"I'll bring the Empress's decree and have Gu Ruoyun come out to receive it immediately!"
She raised her chin high, her drooling gaze falling upon the many precious herbs in Hundred Herb Hall.
If she could obtain this Hundred Herb Hall, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would definitely look at her in a different light. At that time, she would naturally become the Crown Prince's Imperial Concubine and the future Empress who would be the motherly model of the world.
"She's not in our Hundred Herb Hall, you've come to the wrong place."
Elder Yu's face darkened as he said expressionlessly.
"I don't care where she is. Get her to come out and see me immediately!" Ling Yu sneered. "Unless she wants to defy the Empress's decree! When that time comes, even your Hundred Herb Hall won't be able to protect her! In addition, Her Ladyship has also brought an edict. Hundred Herb Hall is guilty of harboring my grandfather's murderer and should be punished with death! However, the Empress is benevolent. As long as you hand over Hundred Herb Hall, she'll spare your lives. "
Of course, the last sentence was Ling Yu's own idea.
After all, she had been eyeing Hundred Herb Hall for a long time. How could she not take this opportunity to take Hundred Herb Hall into her own pocket? Even if the Empress blamed her in the end, she could still offer the precious herbs in Hundred Herb Hall to the Empress. This would definitely dispel the dissatisfaction in her heart.
Ling Yu's plan was indeed beautiful, but it was a pity that it wasn't so easy to put it into practice …
"Hehe," Elder Yu laughed coldly, "Little girl, you're still young, but your tone is very savage. This old man wants to see how you're going to take our lives today!"
He had lived for so many years, but this was the first time he had met such an arrogant little girl. Even if the Hundred Herb Hall now belonged to Gu Ruoyun, he was still a member of the Dongfang family. A mere Imperial Concubine's niece wanted to kill him?
Haha, this is really ridiculous!
"Old fart, you're just a merchant, how dare you go against the imperial power? My aunt is the current imperial concubine, why would she need to fear a small merchant like you? I advise you to hand over Hundred Herb Hall. Otherwise, you probably won't want to stay in Azure Dragon Country anymore. "
Ling Yu could see that Elder Yu held a high position in Hundred Herb Hall. Thus, he naturally treated him as the true mastermind behind Hundred Herb Hall! As for Gu Ruoyun, she didn't even think about it. She was just a little girl, she hadn't even been born when Hundred Herb Hall was established.
"Good, very good, haha!" Elder Yu was so angry that he laughed, his eyes spitting fire, "Today, I want to see just how you're going to make it impossible for me to stay in Azure Dragon Country!"
"Looks like you really refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit."
Ling Yu sneered. He waved his hand and said to the people behind him, "Men, capture this old fart and bring him to the Imperial Consort."
However, the moment he finished speaking, the old man's figure suddenly disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already in front of Ling Yu …
Before Ling Yu could react, Elder Yu's palm had already landed fiercely on her chest. With a 'puchi' sound, her entire body was sent flying. Following that, a voice filled with killing intent suddenly fell into her ears.
"Scram!!!"
The old man waved his sleeves, his old face filled with an icy coldness.
"Cough cough!" Ling Yu coughed out two mouthfuls of blood. Gritting her teeth, she spat out each word, "Old fart, just you wait, I definitely won't let you off!"
After saying this, she hurriedly stood up and hurriedly fled in the direction she had come from …
