Rebirth is not a dream.

The masked man in black got on Su Yue's carriage. He put a knife to Su Yue's neck and whispered, "Go to Tongtuofang quickly..." His voice was low and urgent, as if carrying an irresistible force. At the same time, a trace of determination flashed in Su Yue's eyes. She quickly winked at Taozi, who understood and lifted the curtain of the carriage. At this moment, Su Yue took the opportunity to pick up the dagger in Qiuzhu's hand and threw it at the horse's butt without hesitation.

The horse suddenly felt pain and neighed. Its body shook violently and then it began to gallop wildly. The hooves flew, the wheels rolled, and the whole carriage seemed to be pushed forward by a huge force.

The driver was so panicked by the frightened horse that he abandoned the carriage and ran away! Taozi was caught off guard and rushed forward, hitting the carriage hard. She felt a sharp pain in her arm, as if it had been broken.

At the same time, Qiu Zhu also fell forward due to the huge inertia, but she tried her best to stabilize her body and protected Su Yue tightly with both hands. However, the man in black never expected that this seemingly weak lady would be so bold and resolute that she dared to stab Ma's buttocks with a dagger! This was completely beyond his expectations.

Although the dagger accidentally scratched Su Yue, Su Yue also managed to break free from the control of the man in black. To make matters worse, the frightened horse attracted the attention of the city guards. Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more difficult, the man in black had no choice but to jump out of the roof of the car and ran away into the night.

Taozi tightly grasped the broken wall of the carriage, her face full of fear, and shouted in panic: "Miss! It's not good! The horse is frightened! There are so many people in front!" Taozi shouted while yelling at the crowd in front of her at the top of her lungs: "Quick, quick, quick! Get out of the way! The horse is frightened! Get out of the way quickly! Quick, quick, quick..."

Su Yue also clung to the carriage wall tightly. Her face was as pale as paper, and her eyes were full of fear and helplessness. She had never expected that things would develop into this. Her heart was full of regret and self-blame. However, she knew nothing about driving and had no idea how to stop the running carriage. At this moment, she could only watch the crowd in the night and pray that no one would get hurt.

Qiu Zhu rolled to the side of the cart anxiously, holding the reins tightly with both hands, and tried his best to steady the frightened horse. However, the horse jumped wildly due to the severe pain and was completely out of control.

Seeing that the carriage was about to rush towards the crowd, the situation was extremely critical! At this critical moment, a figure rushed out like lightning. He was holding a sharp sword, his posture was agile, and his sword skills were extremely sharp. In an instant, the sword flashed and fiercely stabbed the vital part of the frightened horse.

With a scream, the frightened horse collapsed to the ground, raising a cloud of dust. The carriage also stopped due to inertia, avoiding a terrible disaster.

Taozi staggered and was about to fall off the carriage! At the critical moment, Qiu Zhu, who was standing by, quickly supported her and avoided an accident. At this time, Su Yue stared at the horse that had already died on the ground and the shocking blood on the ground with a pale face, her mind was blank.

The three finally came to their senses, and were surprised to find that the person who had just saved them was actually the Fourth Prince Yuan Kun! He strode to the front of the carriage and asked with concern: "Are you all right? Is Madam Su okay?" Su Yue nodded gratefully, and said with a trembling voice: "Thank you, Fourth Prince... If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid we..."

Before she finished speaking, Su Yue's eyes fell on the broken carriage again. Looking at the blood all over the ground and the panicked people around her, a sense of sadness arose from the bottom of her heart. She suddenly felt so powerless, as if no matter what she did, she could not change the tragic scene in front of her. This feeling made her want to cry, but she didn't know how to vent her inner pain and helplessness.

Pei Cheng, the commander of Nancheng, rushed over and saw the Fourth Prince. He hurried forward and saluted: "Greetings, Fourth Prince!" The Fourth Prince nodded slightly and said, "Commander Pei, no need to be polite." Pei Cheng stood up, his eyes fell on Su Yue, and asked: "May I ask why this lady scared the horse?"

Hearing this, Su Yue's heart tightened, her face became paler, she leaned against Qiu Zhu weakly, unable to speak. Tao Zi, who was standing by, also stuttered a little. She tried to calm herself down and explained, "Just now... just now a man in black suddenly rushed into the carriage, holding a sharp blade, directly against... against us... Then, for some reason, the horses were frightened and the carriage lost control..."

Upon hearing this, the soldiers looked at each other and one of them said, "That was really thrilling! Are you injured? Do you need our help?" Su Yue shook her head slightly to express her gratitude, "Thank you for your concern. We are fine." Her voice was weak, as if it could be blown away by the wind.

At this time, the Fourth Prince interrupted and said, "In that case, I'll take you back. The night in the capital is not peaceful." Su Yue looked back and forth between the Fourth Prince and the soldiers in the distance. After a moment, she opened her red lips and said slowly, "Thank you for your concern, Fourth Prince. But this place is not far from my Su Garden. If there is nothing else important, please send someone to the An Ning Marquis' Mansion to tell them that I am fine. I will rest in Su Garden tonight."

Upon hearing this, the Fourth Prince nodded his understanding. He also knew that it would be difficult for him to escape at this moment, so he readily responded, "That's fine. I'll arrange for someone to send a carriage to ensure the girl's safe return home." After that, he turned around and whispered a few words to the attendant beside him. The man took the order and left. A moment later, a beautifully decorated carriage slowly drove over.

With Qiu Zhu's help, Su Yue got on the carriage with some difficulty. After Su Yue nodded to thank the Fourth Prince, the carriage slowly drove towards Su Garden.

Taozi looked at Su Yue with a worried look on her face and asked softly, "Miss, are you okay?" Su Yue had just fallen off the carriage and didn't feel anything unusual at first, but at this moment, she felt unbearable pain all over her body, especially the injury on her ankle seemed to be more serious. She closed her eyes tightly, too lazy to speak, and just waved to Taozi to indicate that she was fine.

Qiu Zhu leaned over to the car window and looked out, then turned back and said, "There are a lot of soldiers outside. It looks like something happened in the city."

Su Yue was not interested in this. She responded indifferently: "That has nothing to do with us. Don't pay attention to it. Just take care of ourselves."

Taozi was still a little hesitant and continued to ask, "But, Miss, is it really okay for us not to go back to the Marquis' Mansion tonight?"

Su Yue seemed a little impatient and said, "We have experienced a near-death experience tonight, so how can we have the leisure to care about those irrelevant things!"
