The two of them were only concerned about Su Rou behind them, and didn't notice that there was a dead tree in front of them that was broken by the rain.

They both tripped over the dead log and fell face first into the mud.

In an instant, Su Rou came to them.

The rain wet her hair and slid down her cheeks.

The dagger in Su Rou's hand slashed their necks cleanly and efficiently.

"Why are you running? I've already left Jingzhou City to chase you. It's very troublesome."

The forest suddenly became quiet, and the blood on the ground mixed with the rain and mud.

Su Rou shook off the blood on the dagger. The necks of the two men were cut off by her knife, and their bodies were still struggling on the ground.

She glanced around and thought that only a god could save them.

The forest gradually became quiet, with only the sound of rain hitting the leaves.

She turned around to go back, but suddenly stopped.

She glanced around, "No wonder they were running in this direction. They were trying to lure me out. If they don't come out, I'll leave."

A lot of masked men appeared densely in the woods.

Su Rou looked at them.

And Su Rou was surrounded in the middle.

so many people……

It was beyond her expectation.

"Since you are from the Central Plains, you must have been sent by Yuan Wenfu or that old man from the Southern Kingdom?"

She wiped the rain off her face with her sleeve, and there was no trace of calmness on her fair face.

On her way from the South to Jingzhou, she was ambushed several times, probably because the fake Su Rou spread the news that she was still alive.

She found the Yuan family's badge on the dead bodies.

In fact, if you think about it this way, Su Rou feels that it can be explained.

The Yuan family or that old guy has formed an alliance with the eastern part of the desert.

But the eastern part of the desert wants to take over the southern country, so it is unlikely that it was done by the old man from the southern country.

It could only be the Yuan family.

but……

It seems like she has no grudge against Yuan Wenfu...

Is he worried that she will help Yuan Wen take back the Yuan family?

Su Rou sighed secretly. Yuan Wen was still unconscious when she left. She was worried that Yuan Wen would be implicated, so she never recognized Yuan Wen.

Now it seems that her decision not to help Yuan Wen deal with Yuan Wenfu when she left was wrong.

In a matter of seconds, all the masked men who had surrounded her fell to the ground.

"you you……"

I held back just now, there is still one person alive on the ground.

Su Rou walked towards him and said, "I'll let you go back and tell your master that if Yuan Wen loses a hair, I'll chop off a finger. Also, let him take the position of the head of the Yuan family first, and I'll go back and help Yuan Wen get it back. If you want to use the lives of the Su family as a threat, that's fine. If anyone in the Su family loses a hair, I'll take their life. I'll find him even if he runs to the ends of the earth."

After seeing Su Rou kill so many of them in an instant by herself, all that was left in his heart was fear, and he had no mind to think about anything else.

The man was frightened and burst into tears. He staggered to his feet and shouted, "Help... Help!"

Su Rou watched the man stand up and run away.

His expression was extremely cold.

Gradually, footsteps were heard in the distance, and an old woman came with a large group of people.

When they saw the corpses all over the ground, they gasped.

The old woman was the first to break the silence, "Girl, don't get wet in the rain. We have to go back."

Su Rou stretched her shoulders and said, "Let's go back and pack up. We have to prepare to go to the desert."

The old woman was stunned for a moment, "Girl, why don't you wait until Prince Yu comes before going?"

Su Rou lowered her eyes, "I want to rescue my father as soon as possible."

The old woman looked at Su Rou's lonely back, a trace of heartache in her eyes.

The governor's mansion was as quiet as a haunted house.

Su Rou stood under the eaves and looked quietly at the yard in front of her.

In the past, with the girls from Hongluan Tower as a backdrop, this place was as lively as a big family.

but now……

The yard was quiet, with only the sound of raindrops hitting the eaves.

There was a noise behind her, but Su Rou didn't turn around. Her voice was cold and indifferent. "It's raining, go back to the house."

The madam grabbed the door threshold and leaned against it. Compared with the winter, her already old face now looked more vicissitudes of life.

The madam was wearing a piece of clothing and her hair was all gray. She slowly moved to Su Rou's side, holding on to the wall.

The madam stretched out her hand towards her tremblingly, but when her hand was halfway out and about to touch Su Rou, the madam stopped again.

The madam hung her head helplessly, feeling like a candle in the wind. It would be better not to burden her any further.

The madam felt a warm hand on her hand, looked up, and found that it was Su Rou looking at her.

Su Rou supported the madam and came to the eaves of the corridor, "Why don't you listen..."

There was more helplessness in her words.

Just like at that time, she wanted to take Hongluanlou to the South.

If only they had gone back with her...

While she and Gong Yu were not in Jingzhou, the eastern part of the desert launched another attack and sent troops to attack Jingzhou, which Lord Lu could not resist.

It would be too late to transfer troops from the south to provide support.

After Jingzhou fell, the desert people ruled this place for a while.

They bullied the women and children in the city and captured the girls from Hongluan Tower.

They were imprisoned and tortured every day, and even the elderly brothel owner was not spared.

The lower body of the madam...

The root of the disease has already been left.

Although the girls in Hongluan Tower are prostitutes, they sell their art instead of their bodies...

A Tian is still so young...

They threw him into the wolves and tore him apart, leaving not even a complete body behind...

Within a month of her arrival here, she relied on the old woman's wanted criminal friends to take back Jingzhou and became the new governor of Jingzhou.

The madam's voice was hoarse, "Arou... I don't want to be a burden to you, just throw me out."

Su Rou said, "I will send someone to take you to the South Country. There will be people to take care of you there. Last time I abandoned you and left by myself, but I won't do that this time."

She was the one who made them become like this.

The madam had burst into tears without knowing when, "Arou..."

Su Rou said, "Go to the South, everything will be fine."

The old woman looked at Su Rou and the madam from afar, her eyes full of worry.

"Miss Su, everything is almost ready. We can set off as soon as the rain stops."

Su Rou asked, "Have you found any desert people who are familiar with the desert terrain?"

"I found it. It was a merchant in the city who didn't have time to escape."

Su Rou said, "Have you confirmed your identity?"

"It has been confirmed. He is indeed a businessman."

This time the preparations are foolproof and there will be no problems.

It was a month later when they arrived in Mobei.

Most of the team members were untrained fugitives. Su Rou was originally worried that they would not be able to withstand the desert weather and would complain about it.

But the good thing is...

These people just felt it was hot, and no one said they wanted to leave.

Su Rou said to the old woman, "I remember you once said that your poison and medical skills were learned from the witch doctors of the desert."

The old woman wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve and said, "That's the girl."

Su Rou asked, "Which tribe?"

The old woman choked and said, "I..."

Seeing that the old woman seemed hesitant to speak, Su Rou did not make things difficult for her.

"It just occurred to me to ask."

Su Rou was riding on a camel, looking at the golden sand in front of her.

"Come to think of it, isn't Mobei the territory of the Northern Barbarian King Andrei?"

The old woman replied, "That's right."

Su Rou continued, "Did Andrei surrender to the East?"

No way? !

She had seen Andre's abilities, and this question brought up a problem she had been worried about all the way.

If we save these people, can we successfully find our father among the people in the east?

"There are rumors coming from the desert. I heard that the Northern Barbarian King is the next king recognized by the current Desert King and intends to marry his daughter to the Northern Barbarian King. During this period, the Northern Barbarian King led his tribe to the royal territory, and the Eastern Region took advantage of the opportunity to invade and occupy the northern desert as well."

Su Rou frowned. How could such a rumor spread from the desert, a place like this, to Jingzhou?

Su Rou said, "Did Andre ever think about taking back his territory? He just let Mobei be taken away by the East."

The old woman said, "I think... he's already been recognized by the Desert King, so a little bit of territory in the northern desert wouldn't bother him, right? Anyway, the entire desert will be his from now on."

Su Rou: “…”

The last time I saw Andre and the Nineteenth Princess, Andre's attitude towards the Nineteenth Princess was indifferent.

"Swoosh" an arrow shot towards Su Rou's face.

The dagger in Su Rou's hand cut the arrow in half.

In Su Rou's team, the deputy shouted to warn the people at the back, "There's an ambush!"

She has done Andre and the Nineteenth Princess a favor, so they will probably invite her to the banquet when they get married.
