Chapter 172 Why pretend to be a weak woman?
Zhang Chao was shocked to see Luo Wang vomit blood and faint.
Fearing for the safety of Prince Luo, he did not hesitate to immediately drive the carriage and take Prince Luo back to the Prince Luo's residence.
Just as they arrived at the gate of the Prince Luo's Mansion, they encountered Wei Zhifeng, who was hurrying out.
He was shocked to see the unconscious King Luo:
"Zhang Chao, what's wrong with His Highness?"
"He fainted from the stress," Zhang Chao said briefly. He ordered someone to take the prince back to his room and also instructed someone to fetch the royal physician.
After giving all the instructions, Zhang Chao pulled Wei Zhifeng aside and gestured for him to look at the sky.
Only after being reminded did Wei Zhifeng notice three bright lights on the dark horizon in the distance.
His expression changed drastically instantly, and his voice trembled slightly:
"Don't tell me the granary is on fire!"
Before Zhang Chao could answer, the sound of horses' hooves approached from afar.
Before the troops arrived, their voices came first:
"Report! The grain warehouse has been maliciously set on fire."
……
The color drained from Wei Zhifeng's face instantly.
Although he knew the granary was definitely doomed, Wei Zhifeng still couldn't help but take two steps back when it was burned down by arson.
That's all grain! Enough to feed the entire population of Bao'an City for three months!
Even if this grain were given to the people as charity, it would be better than having it burned.
Who on earth could be so cruel?
No wonder the prince was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted.
Wei Zhifeng's face was very pale. For some reason, he had a feeling that all was lost.
Just then, someone rushed in to report.
A large number of people are coming this way, wanting to demand an explanation from the prince.
Zhang Chao and Wei Zhifeng were startled and quickly led their men into the Luo Prince's Mansion, then had the gate locked.
Zhang Chao looked at Wei Zhifeng with a very grim expression:
"The prince is currently unconscious, and there are civilians everywhere outside. What do you suggest we do now?"
He was like an ant on a hot pan, completely at a loss.
Wei Zhifeng pondered.
It took him a while to look up:
"Go and check on how the Prince is doing. If he's awake, bring him here immediately. I'll have my men hold him off here."
After Zhang Chao left, Wei Zhifeng immediately sent someone to invite Qian Xinglong to bring his troops over.
If anyone tries to force their way into the Prince Luo's residence, Qian Xinglong and the others can at least hold them off.
damn it!
Once everything was arranged, Wei Zhifeng angrily cursed.
Why did so many things suddenly erupt today?
Who exactly is pulling the strings behind all this?
They pressed forward relentlessly, catching them completely off guard.
Who is so capable as to have turned Bao'an City into this mess?
This chaos has destroyed most of the prince's plans over the years.
At that very moment, a fierce shouting sound came from afar.
Soon, loud banging came from outside the door.
coming.
Wei Zhifeng, his face dark, ordered his men to hold the door shut.
……
When the fire started, Song Qian and Han Yulong had already left the west gate and were heading towards the post station.
There was nothing they could do; they were both starving when they left the city.
They found a place to have a good meal before leaving the city.
Now, on the dark road, only the two of them were walking.
In the darkness, the branches swaying in the night wind terrified the two of them.
Han Yulong was scared.
Her body trembled, holding the lantern in one hand and nervously gripping Song Qian's arm with the other:
"Song Qian, I'm so scared."
"How about we go back to Bao'an City, stay at the inn for the night, and return to the post station tomorrow?"
"Enough with the nonsense." Song Qian was also terrified.
She nervously swallowed.
"Just keep your head down and don't look around aimlessly."
Have you forgotten that someone in Bao'an City wanted to kill us?
Han Yulong's voice was trembling with tears, "If I had known that Prince Luo was a man of his word, I would not have done this."
"It's too late to regret it now." Song Qian gritted her teeth, trying to calm herself down.
"Hurry up and go, hurry up, we won't be afraid when we get back to the post station."
As Song Qian spoke, she quickened her pace.
Han Yulong felt a little resentful towards Song Qian, who had just said she wouldn't eat anything and would just keep going.
But she insisted on eating her fill before going back.
They ate, and they ate very slowly, which is why they didn't leave the city until so late.
Despite her complaints, Han Yulong dared not say anything and could only follow in Song Qian's footsteps.
Just then, two men in black, wielding swords, rushed out of the darkness and thrust their swords at them.
The sword's blade gleamed eerily in the darkness, sending chills down the spines of anyone who saw it.
This scene completely terrified the two of them.
After regaining their senses, the two screamed in fright and rushed forward:
"Help!"
"Help! There's a thug!"
……
But how could these two weak women be a match for these two assassins?
They hadn't run far when they were caught up and kicked to the ground.
After the two women got up from the ground in a disheveled state, Song Qian saw that the man in black had already raised his sword to stab them. Without hesitation, she pushed Han Yulong towards the man in black and then rushed forward in a disheveled state.
"Help!"
Phew!
One of the men in black pierced Han Yulong's body with a sword.
"Ahhh!"
Han Yulong screamed in agony, glancing painfully at the long sword in front of her chest, while the lantern she was carrying fell to the ground.
next second!
Phew!
The man in black drew his sword, still dripping with blood, and chased after Song Qian again.
When Song Qian turned around and saw this scene, she screamed in fright, especially when she saw that the other party had already aimed his sword at her, her screams became even louder.
Han Yulong's body slowly fell to the ground and soon became still.
She was wrong.
She shouldn't have provoked the Xu family, she really shouldn't have...
Terrified, Song Qian was quickly caught by the assassin.
Just as the assassin was about to deliver the fatal blow, the voices of Liu Dongyang and his men came from ahead:
Who's calling for help?
Who's in front?
……
Upon hearing this, Song Qian was overjoyed and, while running forward in a disheveled state, shouted loudly:
"Help! I'm here!"
……
Someone's coming!
The two exchanged a glance, quickened their pace, and chased after Song Qian. As they caught up, one of them thrust his sword at Song Qian.
Song Qian was unable to dodge in time and was stabbed in the shoulder.
As she screamed, she fell awkwardly to the ground.
The man in black wanted to go up and deliver another blow, but it was too late, and he could only retreat.
Liu Dongyang and Zhou Peizhi, who arrived later, could only watch as the man in black disappeared into the darkness.
Upon seeing that it was Song Qian, the two looked at her with disdain and turned to leave.
They have no intention of saving women like this who only know how to harm others.
If they had known it was her, they definitely wouldn't have bothered.
"Save me, I don't want to die!" Song Qian cried out.
"Waaah, they stabbed me with a sword, it hurts so much, if you don't save me, I'll die."
And also, Han Yulong…
Woohoo!
Song Qian cried even louder, "She, she was stabbed with a sword, and we don't know how she is now."
Liu Dongyang and Zhou Peizhi felt a little reluctant, so they turned back.
"Shut up!"
Liu Dongyang glared at her, then told Zhou Peizhi to go find Han Yulong while he went to check on Song Qian's wound.
Upon discovering that her wound was bleeding profusely, he reluctantly took out some wound medicine from his pocket, carefully poured some onto her wound, and then pressed it firmly with his hand.
The wound medicine touched the wound, causing Song Qian to cry out in pain again.
But Liu Dongyang simply told her to shut up.
Zhou Peizhi, who had gone to find Han Yulong, returned and shook his head at Liu Dongyang:
"Pierced through the heart, completely dead."
Upon hearing this, Song Qian, who was trembling with pain, breathed a slight sigh of relief.
But she was too weak to speak at this moment; the pain from her wound made her almost faint.
"The person is already dead, should we take him back?" Liu Dongyang asked Zhou Peizhi.
Zhou Peizhi hesitated for a moment, then nodded:
"We're not far from the post station across the street. Let's take her back so that Madam Han can see her one last time."
Liu Dongyang nodded, "Respect for the dead is paramount."
Madam Han would probably want to see her one last time.
Seeing that the bleeding from the wound had stopped, Liu Dongyang released his grip and looked at Song Qian with an impatient expression, "Go by yourself!"
After saying that, he walked over and was about to help Zhou Peizhi lift Han Yulong's body.
Seeing that they weren't helping her up, but instead carrying Han Yulong's body, Song Qian looked displeased.
"She's already dead, why bother with her body?"
"Please help me back. I'm badly injured and can't walk."
"Can't leave?" Liu Dongyang sneered.
"If you can't leave, then stay here and walk back when you're healed and have the strength."
Why pretend to be a weak woman?
If you have the energy to spread rumors, you also have the energy to go back.
"Your injury won't kill you."
After saying that, he and Zhou Peizhi lifted Han Yulong's body and walked forward.
As for whether Song Qian leaves or not, he doesn't care at all.
Song Qian was so angry that she almost started cursing.
But knowing they wouldn't listen, he didn't dare say another word and could only clutch his wound and follow in a disheveled state.
She was also afraid that the two assassins who wanted to kill her might return.
When the group returned to the post station, their disheveled state caused quite a stir.
Lin Mo stood aside watching the show, her eyes filled with indifference.
All she could say was that Song Qian was incredibly lucky to have escaped such a disaster.
When asked by the crowd, Liu Dongyang gave a brief explanation.
They left the city late, and as they approached the post station, they happened to hear someone shouting for help, so they decided to intervene and rescue Song Qian.
Liu Dongyang looked at Madam Han, who sat expressionless beside Han Yulong's corpse, and shook his head:
"When we arrived, she had already been killed."
Because it was nearby, we brought her body back. My condolences.
As for Song Qian, she had already been escorted back to her own place by the Song family.
They also invited Dr. Mu to bandage her wounds.
Dr. Han seemed somewhat dazed. She shook her head and said in a hoarse voice:
"I haven't thanked you yet for bringing her body back to me, thank you!"
Madam Han nodded her thanks to them.
Liu Dongyang shook his head, offered a few words of comfort, and then went back inside.
Madam Han looked at Han Yulong lying on the ground and suddenly burst into tears.
Why won't she listen to me?
I've told her not to cause trouble, not to cause trouble, why won't she listen to me?
Madam Han had long anticipated that something would happen to her.
Who is the Prince of Luo? How could she not know?
That brat deserved it; she wouldn't listen to advice!
Although she resented her for not listening to her, Madam Han still lay on her body and wept bitterly.
This is, after all, the child she carried for ten months and gave birth to.
