After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom

Lu Qi came over on horseback.

"Jiang Yongcheng, today is the day you die."

Lu Qi held a long knife in his hand, his face full of frost.

Jiang Yongcheng knew he couldn't escape, so he staggered to his feet and asked sternly, "Who are you?!"

"Who are we? You'll know when you meet my master!"

Lu Qi raised his knife and swung it down. With a flash of cold light, a bloody arm fell to the ground.

"what--!!!"

Marquis Yong'an screamed miserably, fell to the ground, and curled up in pain.

Lu Qi walked over and picked up the silver bills with a face value of ten thousand taels on the ground. He grabbed the neck of Yong'an Hou with one hand and dragged him up from the ground.

Not far from the woods was a road leading to the capital, where a gray carriage was parked.

Lu Chen and Lu Xuan stood beside the car with their men, their eyes fixed in the direction of Congyun Town.

"Da da da......"

The sound of horse hooves gradually came, and everyone's expressions became frightened and they immediately became defensive.

When they saw who was coming, Lu Chen and Lu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Qi reined in his horse and threw the Yong'an Marquis, who was about to faint on the horse, to the ground.

“Yes, it’s you!!”

When Yong'an Hou saw Lu Chen and his companions, his pupils suddenly widened.

He originally thought it was the Third Prince's man, but he never imagined it would be the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, which always prided itself on being upright.

"How dare you! Even if I'm not a marquis or nobleman, I'm still the prince's uncle. How dare you do this to me!"

His face was pale, and blood was still gushing from his broken arm. After he finished speaking, he felt his vision go dark.

Jiang Momo lifted the curtain and got off the carriage first, and Bai Youyou also got off the carriage.

The weather in early winter was a bit chilly. She wore a black cloak and walked slowly to the front of Marquis Yong'an, looking down at him with grim eyes.

"Jiang Yongcheng, last August, you sent people to the border and leaked the secret to the barbarians, causing my fifth cousin to die. You won't forget this, right?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Yong'an Hou met her murderous eyes and couldn't help but shrink back. "I'm in the capital, how can I know the military secrets!"

Bai Youyou sneered, "Do you think you did it perfectly? You don't know the military secrets, but Bai Yaoyao knows the future. It was Bai Yaoyao who gave you the news, and you sent someone to deliver the message to the barbarians."

Yong'an Hou's eyes flickered and his face turned pale instantly, but he still refused to admit it. "I don't know what you are talking about."

He had already destroyed the evidence, and the barbarians had only passed on the message verbally. He didn't believe that the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion could find any evidence.

Bai Youyou saw through his thoughts at a glance, "Don't you think I can't do anything to you if you destroy the evidence?"

Marquis Yong'an covered his wound with his hands, veins bulging on his forehead. Looking at the people surrounding him, he squirmed back in fear.

"If you don't want others to know, then you better not do it yourself." Bai Youyou's eyes were filled with more hatred, "Today, I will avenge my fifth cousin!"

"You dare to kill me? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not let you and the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion go!" Marquis Yong'an shouted in a timid manner.

Lu Chen took a step forward and said, "Humph, ever since you killed my fifth brother, my Zhenguo Mansion has been irreconcilable with you and the Crown Prince!"

He pulled out the dagger from his waist and slowly squatted down, "You colluded with bandits and betrayed your country, you deserve to die!"

After saying this, he stabbed the Marquis of Yong'an in the heart without hesitation.

"Hey!"

The sound of a sharp weapon entering flesh was heard, and Marquis Yong'an fell to the ground with his eyes wide open, and died.

Everyone looked at the corpse of Marquis Yong'an with mixed feelings.

They fought desperately to defend the country's borders, and did not die at the hands of the enemy, but died at the hands of their own people. How could they not hate it!

Lu Chen stood up, looked towards the border, and murmured, "Fifth brother, rest in peace."

"The prince's men should be here soon. Throw the body to feed the dogs!" Lu Xuan swung his sword and slashed again. He ordered Lu Chen who was standing beside him, "Xiao Qi, take Youyou and the others back first. I'll go check on Lu San and the others."

Lu Qi responded and helped Bai Youyou onto the carriage. Nanny Jiang also hurriedly followed.

Just as the carriage had gone a few feet away, a noise was heard from behind.

The prince's men came on horseback.

Seeing the miserable condition of Marquis Yong'an, they all looked horrified.

"How dare you kill people in public!"

Lu Xuan sneered, "People? People who collaborate with the enemy and betray their country deserve to be put to death!"

He casually made a sword flower and uttered a word from his thin lips, "Kill!!!"

Anyone who belongs to the prince will not be able to leave here today!

"Madam Jiang, please protect Youyou."

Lu Chen gave instructions and joined the battle with his sword in hand.

"Qiang Qiang Qiang——"

Inside the carriage, Bai Youyou clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging deep into her palms.

Jiang Momo held her hand lovingly and comforted her softly, "Young Miss, don't be nervous. With the Sixth Young Master and the others here, nothing will happen."

Bai Youyou nodded slightly, but her eyes were still filled with worry: "I'm afraid that what happened today will become common in the future. As long as the imperial power remains, the Zhenguo Mansion will never have peace."

Jiang Momo sighed, "Let's take it one step at a time. There's no rush."

Outside, the sound of swords clashing could be heard constantly.

Lu Xuan's swordsmanship was sharp and unstoppable, and Lu Chen was also brave and fearless.

Although the prince had a large number of troops, they could not withstand their desperate fighting and were immediately defeated.

Just then, a cloud of dust rose in the distance.

"Someone is coming!" Lu Qi frowned.

Lu Xuan gritted his teeth and said, "Quick battle, quick decision!"

Bai Youyou in the carriage lifted a corner of the curtain and said calmly after seeing this scene: "Drive towards those people. We will stop them first and relieve their pressure."

The driver was shocked: "This is too dangerous."

Bai Youyou said resolutely: "Go, this is an order!"

The driver had no choice but to do as he was told.

The coachman drove the carriage to the middle of the road. Bai Youyou got off the carriage, followed by Jiang Momo and Lu Qi.

I saw that the group of people coming from the opposite side were wearing official uniforms, and the leader was Lord Zhao.

Lord Zhao dismounted and saluted when he saw this: "Miss Bai?"

Bai Youyou raised her eyes slightly and asked with a smile: "Master Zhao, what a coincidence."

Zhao Qingming glanced at the crowd in the distance and said meaningfully, "I heard that there was something unusual going on here, so I came to check it out."

At this time, Lu Xuan and Lu Chen, who had dealt with the prince's men, also came over.

Lu Xuan bowed and said, "Your Excellency has arrived at the right time. These people are assassins who intended to kill the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo. They have been executed on the spot."

Zhao Qingming's expression changed, "Do you have any evidence?"

Lu Xuan put away the sword that was still dripping with blood, and smiled harmlessly, "They killed people when they blocked the road, which is enough to prove it."

Zhao Qingming asked someone to check, and when his subordinates came back to report, they said it was a man in black and his origins were unknown.

He frowned, "I still need to verify the facts."

"Master Zhao, just investigate thoroughly. If necessary, you can send someone to pass on the message. I will fully cooperate with you."

Lu Xuan's smile did not diminish.

These are the killers secretly hired by the prince. They usually help him do many evil things. The prince will not easily bring this matter to light.
