The Concubine Strikes Back: The Marquis Insists on Me to Be His Wife

"Yes, the slave will leave."

"Please take good care of Nian'er, Madam. Come on, old Marquis, let's go out and take a look too!"

"Don't worry, I will take good care of Brother Nian." The old lady patted her chest and assured Su Qing.

Su Qing didn't say much, because she knew that if the Marquis' Mansion couldn't be saved, no one would survive.

Su Qing and the old marquis came to the front door together. She ordered people to bring a chair for the old marquis to sit on. She also asked everyone to extinguish a few torches.

"Knock knock knock..." There was a knock on the door.

Su Qing glanced at Xiao Chen and motioned for him to speak.

Xiao Chen understood Aunt Su's hint and nodded before speaking.

"Who is outside the door? Why are you knocking at the door in the middle of the night?"

"I am Eunuch Li from Prince Pingnan's side. I am here to take the old marquis and the old lady into the palace. It is not safe outside the palace now."

"The old marquis and the old lady have already gone to bed. Please go back and inform Prince Pingnan that it is late at night, so we will not bother the two elders for now."

"Who is talking inside the door? Could you be the master of the Marquis' Mansion?"

"I am the manager of the Marquis' Mansion. When the Marquis left, he told me that I would be in charge of all matters in the Marquis' Mansion."

"There is turmoil in the palace now. I advise the steward to be more sensible and quickly inform the old marquis to follow me into the palace for refuge."

Seeing this, Su Qing called Ru Hu.

"Ruhu, tell everyone to guard the corner gate and make sure no one gets in. Tell everyone to hold their swords tightly. If anyone comes in, kill them all. Don't let anyone go."

"Yes." Ru Hu hurried to instruct everyone.

Just as Su Qing was about to turn around, Xiao Yu ran over.

"Auntie, there's already fighting on the street. I think they're ready to break into the mansion. You should take the old marquis and his men to the newly renovated backyard to hide first!"

"It makes no difference where you hide."

"There is a secret room in the backyard. You and everyone can hide there first!"

"Really? Then quickly take Brother Nian, the old marquis, the old lady and the others there."

Wu Yanran quickly called out the old lady and Jiang Nian and took them to the backyard.

"Old Marquis, you should go too! Let's go~"

Su Qing also followed the old marquis to the secret room in the backyard and fed Jiang Nian some sleeping pills, hoping that he would be safe.

They were sent in, and Wu Yanran, Shuilian and Ling'er were called to follow, and the nanny beside the old lady was also brought in.

"Aunt, aren't you coming in?" Wu Yanran asked quickly when she saw Su Qing didn't come in.

"Don't worry about me, just get out of the way first."

"Qing'er, come in too. There are so many secret guards guarding here!"

"Don't worry, old madam. I will take good care of myself. I will definitely go out to guard. If... if they come in and see me, they may not continue searching. You guys go down quickly! Don't worry about me. Rumei, Ruxue, I leave everyone to you." After Su Qing finished speaking, she left without looking back.

Wu Yanran saw Su Qing leaving and jumped out, chasing in Su Qing's direction.

"Auntie, wait for me."

Su Qing turned around and saw that it was Wu Yanran.

"Why did you come out? Follow them down quickly."

"I want to follow you, Auntie. You gave me my life, and I want to die beside you. Please don't abandon Yanran."

"Okay, follow me!" Su Qing was actually quite touched. Regardless of life or death, it was good to have someone accompany her. This was the most touching thing that happened to her since she traveled here.

The two hurried to the front yard.

Su Qing was shocked by the scene in front of her. The scene was in chaos and a bloody fight had already begun.

"Auntie, let's run! Run to the backyard."

"No, let's go somewhere else."

Like a tiger, Leng Ze came in front of Su Qing and protected her.

"Aunt, be careful. Don't run around. Stay with us. We swear to protect you until our death."

Su Qing took out a dagger and gave it to Wu Yanran, asking her to hold it well and protect herself.
