A dream ends life

Yu Cai has always known that Su Ci is not simple.

The person who can achieve mutual benefit with the Grand Princess shows her value.

Unexpectedly, Su Ci was even more powerful than she imagined.

She had said everything she needed to say, and there was no need for her to stay. She left without a word.

Qing Mo snorted coldly. These Beiyan people are only too smart for their own good. A shepherd wants to play tricks on others. Why is he so shameless?

Su Ci was someone that her prince wanted to protect. If they were easily tricked by these shepherds, they would have no chance of survival.

Not long after Yu Cai left, there was movement outside again.

This time the guard reported in a serious tone, "Master, there is a team heading this way. It is still five miles away."

Team? Whose team?

"Do you know who is leading the team?"

The guard shook his head: "It's too dark to see clearly, should we leave here?"

Su Ci said: "Leave, leave now!"

The army is at your doorstep, why don't you run away and wait to be caught?

The guard nodded, "Please pack up and we will leave immediately."

Su Ci stood up and wrapped the plush cloak around himself, "Let's go!"

Guard... so fast?

Su Ci raised an eyebrow, "You're not leaving?"

Guards, go, go, go! Go now!

Su Ci looked at Qingyou and Qingmo again: "You..."

They both said in unison: "We don't have anything to clean up."

Su Ci nodded: "Then let's go."

The carriage was brought out and the three of them got into it.

The guards protected the carriage in the middle and left the courtyard.

Run wildly in the opposite direction!

In the carriage, Qingyou asked Su Ci: "Miss, do you know who is coming?"

Su Ci shook his head: "I don't know."

The two of them... Didn't they run a little hastily? Don't you want to confirm it?

Su Ci: What good intentions could someone have when he dispatches an army in the middle of the night? Just run.

The carriage ran for about ten miles, and dust was flying in the distance behind it, which vaguely looked like rising mist.

The guard said: "Oh no, they are chasing us, hurry up and leave!"

The carriage was slower than the horse, and the entire team was slowed down.

The head of the guard calmly ordered: "We will split into two groups. One group will go ahead to protect the carriage, and the other group will stay behind to divert the pursuers."

Everyone thought this was a good idea, so they quickly decided whether the two teams would stay or go.

Su Ci said coldly in the carriage: "We can't go separately."

No one understands.

"We're falling into their trap if we go our separate ways."

It was the dead of night, and if anyone really wanted to catch her, anyone with a bit of brains would first send someone with good skills to ambush the courtyard.

Who would send out a large army to capture people all of a sudden? Aren’t they just afraid of catching people and letting them run away?

The people under her command are all highly skilled in martial arts. If their strength is weakened by half, it would be much easier to encounter a real ambush.

By then she won't be able to escape.

A figure rushed down the hillside ahead, and the guards were on high alert.

Only when I got closer did I see clearly that this was Yu Qia who had just left. How did she get here?

Yu Cai also saw clearly that it was Su Ci's carriage.

Arriving in front of the carriage, he said, "Miss Su, don't go any further. There is an ambush at the corner of the mountain road ahead."

She originally wanted to take a shortcut back, but unexpectedly she found a group of people lying in ambush there.

Qingyou and Qingmo both looked serious, "Miss, it's a good thing we didn't go our separate ways."

If they were really separated, half of them would face those in ambush, and the other half would be entangled by the pursuers behind them. At that time, they would be helpless.

Su Ci lifted the curtain of the car and looked around, frowning. There was an ambush in front and pursuers on both sides. Were they going to force her up the mountain?

Mountain?

Over this mountain is the one that trapped Yu Luohan.

What would happen if they accidentally went in?

Either they were trapped inside and could never come out, or they could break the formation and let her, Yu Luohan and the other two out.

Oh, she knows who is coming?

Unexpectedly, Yu Luohan still had a trick up his sleeve.

He had already made the worst-case scenario plan. As long as he encountered any accident, this army would be his life-saving talisman.

The other party wanted her to enter the formation and force her to release Yu Luohan.

The head of the guard asked, "Master, what should we do now?"

The pursuers behind him are almost there.

Su Ci asked Yu Cai: "Do you know how many people are in ambush?"

Yu Qia thought back and said, "About a hundred people."

Su Ci nodded, "That's fine, we'll take that road."

ah? What?

Yu Cai was a little confused. Did she hear it wrong?

Su Ci nodded at her and said quickly, "You heard it right, that's it, everyone hurry up and leave."

Her subordinates are all experts, so she still has a chance of winning against a hundred or so soldiers.

The guards did not hesitate, as they seemed to have no other choice, as the pursuers behind them had seen the figure.

It is best to rush over as fast as possible.

The group of people protected the carriage and sped up the procession. Yu Qia thought about it and decided not to follow them, instead disappearing into the night.

She has her mission, and there is no need for her to die here. She has already done her best by delivering a letter to Su Ci, and she will not put herself in danger.

After Su Ci knew her choice, he was not dissatisfied. A gentleman does not stand on a dangerous wall, and Yu Qia had no obligation to help her.

The group soon arrived at the corner of the mountain.

The people on the opposite side didn't say anything. After shooting a few arrows, they came out and fought head-on.

They are indeed soldiers from the military camp, and their fighting style is different from that of these gangsters.

The guards were all top-notch masters. One of them could easily deal with two or three people, and they gained the upper hand in a blink of an eye.

The pursuers behind him also caught up.

The guard raised the whip and was about to drive the carriage away, but was stopped by Su Ci.

Su Ci looked down at the growing number of people below and locked onto a figure among them.

She was familiar with that figure, it was Yu An!

Yu Luohan's confidant, he follows him around when nothing is going on, and acts as his right-hand man when something is going on.

There is no doubt about Yu An's loyalty to Luo Han. Su Ci watched the team getting closer.

Yu An really thought highly of her. How many people were dispatched? It looked like a huge crowd, at least 800 if not 1,000.

The head of the guard whispered, "There are too many people, let's go first."

They were not afraid, but they were afraid that they would not be able to take care of Su Ci. The most important thing was to send Su Ci away first.

Su Ci waved her hand. Yu An mobilized so many people just for her. It would be a pity if she left!

Yu An also saw Su Ci from afar. Under the cold moonlight, the light flickered. Su Ci looked down at him, which was creepy.

Su Ci whispered instructions to Qingyou Qingmo.

The two men pulled out a flat box made of rough wood from the compartment in the floor of the carriage.

Qingyou weighed it in her hand and found it quite heavy. If she hadn't been a martial artist, she wouldn't have been able to hold it.

Put it in front of Su Ci.

Su Ci gently opened it, revealing black pellets. The box was not big, and the pellets were arranged in three rows, placed in grooves of appropriate size, six in each row, for a total of three rows.

Looking at the increasing number of soldiers gathering below, his face turned cold.
