3 Years of "Martyrdom", Hundreds of Coffins Lead the Way on the Day the Marquis's Wife Divorces Her Husband

In her previous life, Shen Ningyuan was deeply devoted to her husband. Not only was she willing to live as a widow for him, but she also used her dowry to support his in-laws. However, this only re...

Chapter 114: Assassination

Seeing Shen Haobai’s reaction, Shen Potian’s face suddenly darkened.

"What? Haven't you found her yet?" Shen Potian asked.

Shen Haobai choked, but thinking of what Shen Ningyuan had told him, he still answered Shen Potian's question with a stiff upper lip, "Father, the people I arranged to look for my cousin have searched the area around the Marquis' Mansion, but they haven't found my cousin."

"Not in the Marquis' Mansion?" Shen Potian's heart skipped a beat. "Where could he have gone?"

"It's also possible that my cousin was not feeling well and went back to her sister's villa?" Shen Haobai made up an excuse.

Shen Potian nodded, “It’s possible. You can arrange for someone to go to the other courtyard to check and ensure the safety of your cousin.”

"Yes, Father."

After Shen Haobai responded, Shen Potian jumped on the horse.

After getting on the horse, Shen Potian suddenly said again: “On the way back to the Marquis’ Mansion, pay more attention to your sister. I always feel that something will happen today.”

“I know.” Shen Haobai said in a deep voice: “Even if Daddy doesn’t say it, I will pay attention to it.”

There was a funeral at the Marquis's Mansion, and his mother asked him and his father to come over just to protect Shen Ningyuan.

"Well, let's go."

Shen Potian rode away on his horse, and Shen Haobai also jumped on the horse.

Controlling the horse, he kept up with the pace of the team.

At this time, Shen Ningyuan was sitting in the carriage, thinking in his mind, what exactly was Xie Wanzhou going to do after arranging the manpower?

At the same time, Xie Wanzhou and Luo Ziyuan were also not far away, following the team on their way back.

Luo Ziyuan asked impatiently: "When will Xie Yumin take action?"

Xie Wanzhou shook his head, "I don't know."

"He is your brother. You have raised him for so many years. Don't you know him very well?"

Xie Wanzhou rolled his eyes at him and said unhappily, "Luo Ziyuan, do you really have to be so sarcastic when talking to me?"

"Sometimes, I really want to tear your mouth apart." Xie Wanzhou said angrily, "It's like you haven't brushed your teeth for three hundred years. The moment you open your mouth, it makes me feel sick."

“Xie Wanzhou, you are a venomous snake yourself, and you don’t allow me to say something yin and yang?”

"But you have to choose the time. We are doing serious business now!" Xie Wanzhou said coldly.

"I haven't started yet..."

Before he could finish his words, a scream was heard from the team.

"ah--"

"There's an assassin!"

Xie Wanzhou and Luo Ziyuan's expressions changed instantly and they looked in the direction of the team.

A group of men in black emerged from the darkness and rushed towards the crowd.

Basically, they would chop down anyone they saw and not let anyone live.

"Xie Yumin has gone crazy!" Luo Ziyuan exclaimed on the spot. "The funeral procession is full of dignitaries from the capital. Isn't he afraid of retaliation in the future by killing people like this?"

Xie Wanzhou's voice was icy: "He is a madman."

"Ahhh..." Luo Ziyuan howled angrily, "You're already crazy enough, but I didn't expect Xie Yumin, this lunatic, is even crazier than you! Forget it, I don't want to say anything more. Stopping this lunatic is more important!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Ziyuan raised his hand and the men behind him flew out.

In the blink of an eye, he was fighting with this group of assassins who attacked anyone they saw.

The sounds of fighting, killing, and screaming suddenly filled the air, alarming the people in front of the team.

Everyone who heard the noise looked behind them and saw a group of assassins hacking at anyone they saw. They were so scared that they immediately ran away.

The originally neat team scattered in an instant.

Even the coachman was so frightened that he dropped the reins and ran for his life.

The scene suddenly became chaotic, with only a few carriages left standing.

The incident happened so suddenly that Shen Ningyuan couldn't help but be shocked.

Could it be that Xie Wanzhou’s plan was to arrange an assassination?

Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan was about to lift the curtain without saying a word.

Lan Yin stopped her in fear: "Miss, don't go out, it's very dangerous outside!"

Shen Ningyuan shook her head: "It's okay, I'll just see what's going on outside."

After saying that, Shen Ningyuan lifted the curtain and was about to observe the situation outside.

Unexpectedly, an arrow shot directly towards her face.

Shen Ningyuan's expression paused.

The arrow was aimed at her!

"Miss!"

Lan Yin exclaimed, and without any hesitation, she pushed Shen Ningyuan away and used her body to block her.

"Lan Yin!"

The incident happened so suddenly that Shen Ningyuan staggered after being pushed and had no time to stop it.

Just when the arrow was about to hit Lan Yin.

A long sword came from the side and deflected the arrow with the sword blade.

Shen Ningyuan looked up and saw Shen Potian riding a horse, looking down at her condescendingly.

“Daddy!”

Shen Potian did not respond and threw three swords on the carriage.

He said seriously, "Yuan'er, now is not the time to cry for help. You have some martial arts skills, so take those two girls with you and protect yourselves with your swords. These assassins are obviously coming for us. Dad and your eldest brother may not be able to protect you!"

"Okay, I got it!"

After Shen Potian and Shen Ningyuan finished their instructions, they turned around and went to deal with the other men in black.

At this moment, Shen Ningyuan didn't care about the danger in his heart.

Without any hesitation, he picked up the three swords thrown by Shen Potian and handed one to Lan Yin and Lu Ying respectively.

The two men took the swords fearfully, and Shen Ningyuan instructed in a deep voice: "You two, hide in the carriage with your swords, keep your bodies low, and if an assassin enters the carriage, immediately cut at the neck, do you hear me?"

After saying that, Shen Ningyuan jumped out of the carriage.

"Miss, what about you?" Lan Yin asked fearfully.
