Noble Lady

Chapter 433 The mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole follows behind

Walk out the door.

Xue Chenyu slowly exhaled a breath of foul air.

Yumei was already waiting for her at the door and whispered, "Miss, Sister Qiuhua is back and is waiting to see you."

Xue Chenyu nodded and said, "Tell them to prepare the car. We'll be going out soon."

Yumei nodded quickly.

In the room.

Qiu Hua saw Xue Chenyu coming back and quickly stood up. "Miss, according to your instructions, we have prepared the staff."

"Then let's go pick up my father."

Qiuhua nodded.

Xue Chenyu only took Qiuhua with her and went out.

At the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, she was stopped as expected, but as soon as she showed her token, all the guards knelt on the ground.

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

Xue Chenyu put away the token and said, "No need to be polite. I want to go out. I hope you won't stop me."

"We dare not!" The guards said almost in unison.

"In that case, I'll be leaving. If you're worried, you can follow me."

The guards all said in unison, "We dare not."

Xue Chenyu put away the token and walked out of the mansion with Qiuhua as if nothing had happened.

But the guards were also worried.

Didn’t His Majesty personally issue an edict to confer the title of Marquis of Wu’an on the mansion? Why did he hand over such an important token to Miss Xue?

Then they couldn't ask His Majesty, so they could only continue to guard the gate honestly.

Soon, the carriage was pulled out.

Zhang Yaozu used the excuse of going to the toilet and disappeared in a flash.

Xue Chenyu got on the carriage and just sat down when she heard Qiu Hua say, "Miss, you've taken the bait."

She saw the man acting sneakily.

Xue Chenyu nodded, "Be careful, there must not be any mistakes again."

"Don't worry, young lady. Everything has been arranged." Qiuhua said.

Xue Chenyu didn't say anything more and leaned against the carriage, closing her eyes to rest.

The carriage sped towards the outside of the city, but it seemed unfortunate today.

First, they encountered a wedding procession, and then after waiting for a long time, they found that they could not pass ahead. The driver got off the car to inquire about it, only to find out that there was another funeral procession ahead.

Happy events should give way to sad events, so we can only let sad events pass first.

The funeral is full of crying and music, and it won't end in a short time. The funeral procession has to pass before the wedding can begin.

Then their carriages could pass only after the other people stuck in the traffic ahead left.

"Girl, what do you think?"

"Let's take a detour." Xue Chenyu said helplessly, "I'm in a hurry."

Qiuhua nodded.

They had no choice but to take a detour. Just as they arrived at the market, they heard that a bullock cart loaded with goods in front of them accidentally knocked over a street stall.

The strange little vendor pulling an ox cart set up his stall in the middle of the road. The vendor blamed the driver of the ox cart for not being smart enough and not tying the ox properly.

They were both rude to each other, with very harsh words, bringing up several generations of their ancestors, and neither of them was willing to give in, and the argument was endless.

Of course, the road was also blocked by them.

There were several carriages ahead, and many pedestrians were stuck and unable to pass.

It was a busy city right now, with many people either going to the market or wanting to purchase things for His Highness. The traffic ahead was so congested that they had no choice but to take a detour.

It is most convenient for pedestrians. They can just go into the alley and go around it in a few turns.

But for those like Xue Chenyu who were riding in a carriage, it was not so easy to take a detour. They could only go through the alley and take another road.

Seeing that the crowd in front took a long time to evacuate, Xue Chenyu was in a hurry and had to ask the driver to take a detour.

As the carriage passed through the alley, a pile of bamboo poles used for building a scaffold fell to the side.

Like falling from the sky.

The carriage couldn't dodge in time and was hit by the poop.

The driver just managed to jump out of the car and avoid it.

Before he could come to his senses, he was surrounded by a group of masked men in black clothes and black scarves.

The people in the carriage asked unhappily, "What happened? Why is there such a big commotion?"

"You, who are you and what do you want to do?" The driver was so scared that he stuttered and patted the carriage. "Young lady, please don't get off the carriage. There are a group of bad guys outside."

The car suddenly became quiet.

The men in black exchanged glances with each other and further tightened the circle around the carriage.

"Who are you outside? You know this is the emperor's territory. I'm the daughter of a marquis. If anything goes wrong with me, you won't be able to escape!"

The person in the carriage did not show up, but his words were righteous.

The man in black sneered at this, "I'm afraid you won't live to see that moment. Being able to drag the daughter of the Marquis's mansion into our care is a lifetime of accomplishment!"

As he spoke, the man in black suddenly burst into laughter for no apparent reason.

The driver reacted, "You are Han Hongyue's men, right? It's not enough that you killed my Marquis. Now you want to kill people to silence them?!"

"You, a coachman, talk a lot. People like you should meet the King of Hell early." One of the men in black impatiently chopped at him with a knife.

Unexpectedly, the seemingly ordinary rickshaw driver dodged it so nimbly.

The man in black slashed again, and the driver barely dodged it again.

Only then did he realize that he had been tricked.

"Oh no! It's a trap! Retreat quickly!" he shouted.

Before he finished speaking, a rain of arrows fell from the sky.

The man in black dodged left and right and blocked with his knife, but the sound of "clang clang clang" continued, accompanied by the sound of feather arrows penetrating into flesh and blood.

then.

The rain of arrows stopped.

Just when they thought they were saved, several fishing nets fell from the sky.

Seeing that more than a dozen men in black were about to be caught in the fishing net, they hurriedly raised their knives to chop, but were bounced back with a "clang", and the knives were knocked out, and their knives were bleeding violently.

The "fishing net" that fell from the sky completely covered them.

It was only then that the men in black realized that the so-called "fishing net" covering them was not an ordinary fishing net at all, but was made of iron rings.

The interlocking rings weighed hundreds of pounds, and when they fell down, the taller ones were the first to be hit, with blood coming out of their heads, mouths, and broken spines, and they could not even stand.

After just two waves, those who were lucky enough not to be hit by arrows were also hit by the fishing nets and were half-dead. These dozen or so men in black had no chance of escaping.

A petite figure got out of the carriage, crossed her arms, and said with a cold smile, "You guys are so stupid. You just dug a trap and fell for it."

The man in black only realized it was a trap at this point, but it was too late.

The driver also came out from under the carriage and saluted the young girl who got off. "Greetings, Miss Xue Er."

"You're welcome, Chief Yao, thank you for your cooperation." Xue Luoyan waved her hand, very happy, "My sister should have left the city by now."

“The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. But my sister is the hunter.”

Xue Luoyan's eyes were full of pride.

Yao, the escort leader, bowed to Xue Luoyan and said, "Ms. Xue's strategy is truly admirable. Miss Xue's second daughter is also very courageous and has a bright future."

"Of course. His Majesty himself said that he wanted me to be the first female general of the Great Sheng Dynasty."

at this time.

A wail rang out from the man in black who was caught in the fishing net. "Brother, we've fallen into a trap!"

"Shut up! Can't I see it myself? Do I need you to tell me?" The man called the eldest brother punched him again in frustration.

They didn't expect that the trap had been planned for a long time and they had been on guard day and night until this opportunity, but it turned out to be a trap set by others.

He didn't even dare to imagine how miserable their fate would be after their true identities were revealed.
