I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night

Chapter 154 - 154 Sneak Attack



After all, you know me. If I really wanted to, I could have ordered someone to take you guys down and lock you guys up at the city gate! At that time, no matter how brave Gu Erlang was, would he have been able to escape safely with you in front of everyone?!”

Lin Suisui, who had been holding back her anger, immediately fell silent.

That was true.

She looked up reluctantly at Pei Qian, who was busy cutting herbs. “Thank you for not capturing us.”

“You’re welcome.”

Pei Qian paused and almost cut his hand.

“According to your previous plan, after we reach the north, are you really planning to settle land and farm for a living?!”

Pei Qian composed himself and continued to cut the herbs in his hand as he spoke with Lin Suisui.

“I can treat people’s illnesses. My husband can hunt in the mountains to supplement our family’s income!” Lin Suisui pounded the medicine as she replied, “So no matter what, we can make a living!”

“Do you know why I suspected your identities at the city gate?!” After Pei Qian cut the herbs in his hand, he slowly put down the knife and patted the medicine crumbs in his hand. Then, he looked up at Lin Suisui with a faint smile. “I admit that your disguise is indeed very thorough. You even took into account the rough calluses on your hands!

However, you guys ignored the most important thing!

No matter how simple the luggage of the refugees who passed by was, they more or less had one or two farming tools without wooden handles! Even Mrs. Luo’s family, who were kicked out of their homes and is on good terms with you, had hoes and shovels!

You two are the only exception!”

Lin Suisui turned around and looked at Pei Qian in shock. “You thought there was a problem with us just because of that?!”

“That’s right. Do you know how important farming tools are to a family that depends on farming?! As a doctor, would you throw away your scalpels and needles?!

The refugees who chose to go to the north this time were basically farmers.

Because the Imperial Court had only promised to give them land, most people who had other ways to make a living wouldn’t leave their homes and take the huge risk of traveling thousands of miles to the north just because of the temptation of this land!

“Therefore, I was certain that your identities were extraordinary!”

Pei Qian told the truth.

“You’re indeed meticulous.” Lin Suisui lowered her eyes. She had indeed been careless! She had indeed prepared everything, but she had neglected this detail.

Moreover, she was unlucky enough to have encountered a creep like Pei Qian!

“Madam Liu, you’re welcome.” Pei Qian smiled and nodded. He wasn’t humble at all in the face of Lin Suisui’s praise. Seeing that Lin Suisui’s hostility towards him had decreased, he took the opportunity to ask, “So, Madam Liu, have you thought about what you’ll do when you reach your destination?!”

“Mr. Pei, have you forgotten that you helped us get a large sum of money previously?! With that sum of money, my husband and I don’t need to plan anything. We can buy a farm and a shop. Then, we can relax and collect rent for the rest of our lives!”

Lin Suisui had just suffered a loss. Now that there was an opportunity, she naturally had to seize it to counterattack.

Pei Qian didn’t expect to receive such an amusing answer. He stood where he was and stared at Lin Suisui for a long time. Then, he pointed at her before leaving without looking back.

Without Pei Qian disturbing her, Lin Suisui felt that she was working much faster.

Not long after Pei Qian left, Qian He came over. Not only did he bring the clean white cotton cloth that Lin Suisui had mentioned, but he also brought Mrs. Luo and a few other women who were good at needlework.

“Mr. Pei asked me to send these things to you. You can also order these people around. If you need anything else, you can immediately send someone to look for me. I’ll arrange it for you immediately!”

Qian He handed the things and people to Lin Suisui as he explained very politely.

“Thank you, Mr. Qian He.” Lin Suisui bowed to Qian He. Then, she arranged for Mrs. Luo and the others to deal with the thin cotton cloth.

These cotton cloths had to be cut into thin strips of suitable width. Next, they had to be placed in a soup pot and boiled. Then, they had to be dried and wrapped into a roll.

It wasn’t a complicated task. Lin Suisui only taught Mrs. Luo and the others twice before they understood.

Seeing this, Lin Suisui didn’t say anything else and continued to deal with the herbs.

At this moment, Lu Ze, Wu Liu, and the others had also successfully used the corpses of the northern barbarian scouts to lure the crazy wolves to the vicinity of the mountain bandit camp where the northern barbarians had stopped.

The appearance of the wolf pack attracted the attention of the northern barbarians in the village.

However, those people didn’t take it seriously.

After all, wolves were very common in the north. Even if there were more of them than usual, they might have been attracted by the crowd in the village. It wasn’t something to be afraid of!

After Lu Ze, Wu Liu, and the others hid halfway up the mountain not far from the village, they waited for nightfall vigilantly and patiently.

“Should we lean forward some more?” Wu Liu nudged Lu Ze and suggested to him in a low voice, “Our carriage is too far away to reach there! If we go over later, I’m afraid it’ll be too late.”

“Leave two people to watch the horses. The rest of you, move the things forward! Tell them to be careful and follow the route we investigated previously. Don’t be discovered by the patrolling soldiers over there.”

Lu Ze looked at the sky. He didn’t refuse Wu Liu’s suggestion.

With Lu Ze’s approval, Wu Liu and the others moved quickly. Soon, with Lu Ze, they successfully transported everything to the location they had investigated previously.

Next, they just had to wait for nightfall!

However, no one expected that the originally smooth-sailing arrangement would encounter a small accident before dark.

When he saw the two northern barbarian soldiers who suddenly appeared in front of everyone, Lu Ze’s expression darkened.
