Chapter 77 Jiang Yunzheng counterattacks Shi Jingtao, and Shi Jingtao is slowly dragged into the water

Jiang Yunzheng noticed something unusual almost the moment she got on the car.

She took a small pill from her sleeve and swallowed it without changing her expression.

Before getting on the car, Wuyou returned the small dagger that Jiang Yunzheng always carried with her. No weapons were allowed into the palace, except for military officers with special permission from His Majesty.

She looked at the interior structure of the carriage, which was made of elm, a commonly used wood. She touched the small table embedded in the wall of the carriage. It felt smooth and she could vaguely feel tiny particles, which quickly disappeared and melted between her fingers.

Song Wanyun's tofu pudding shop is located in Yonglefang. The route Wuyou drives is the latest newly built road leading to Yonglefang. It is the shortest distance, but because it was recently built, there are not many pedestrians passing by.

Murder and kidnapping are very suitable on this road.

Jiang Yunzheng was still thinking to herself, but at this moment, the horse suddenly neighed, the carriage slowed down, and the horse circled around anxiously, unwilling to move forward.

Wu Yu quickly realized something was wrong, "Madam?"

Jiang Yunzheng said in a steady voice, "I'm fine. If you can't make it in time later, go find mother first. I have something on me that will help me get away."

The only person who could have forced Qin Xiulian to leave the house and used Song Wanyun to seduce Jiang Yunzheng was someone other than the people in the Shi Mansion.

Is it Shi Jingtao or Shi Xiaoya?

Wuyue frowned: "Young Madam..."

Suddenly, there were extremely fast footsteps coming from the surroundings.

Jiang Yunzheng held the dagger in his sleeve with an indifferent expression.

Wu You was the first to rush out with a sword in hand. Seeing this, the people around her fled. Jiang Yunzheng heard the noise outside and judged that there were no less than ten people. Wu You stood in front of the carriage. She was alone and could not resist, and soon blood appeared on her body.

Jiang Yunzheng pressed his right hand against the wooden window.

A sword tip pierced through the curtain and entered the wooden window, the blade swaying inside.

Jiang Yunzheng's eyes turned cold, and he stabbed the man with the dagger in his right hand with all his strength. The man screamed, and Jiang Yunzheng did not stop, and quickly slashed the dagger along the lines of the tendons in his right hand.

The man finally let go, and the sword fell into the carriage with a clang.

Jiang Yunzheng then drew out the dagger.

Now she holds a sword and a dagger in her hands.

She lifted the curtain and saw about fourteen or fifteen men in black outside. Wuyou's right hand was injured.

Jiang Yunzheng doesn't know martial arts, and going out rashly will only add pressure to Wu Yutu.

The horse in front was still neighing, causing the carriage to shake.

Whenever Jiang Yunzheng went out, she would put three pills in her sleeves: an antidote to all poisons, a resurrection pill, and a poison.

Jiang Yunzheng took out another poison pill and rubbed it on the sword one by one. The remaining pills were just enough to smear on the dagger. She lifted the curtain and yelled at Wuyou: "Catch it."

Wuyou steadied his right hand and held his original sword in his left hand. With two swords in hand, Wuyou's attack speed became much faster.

The assassin leader laughed at this and said, "A stinky woman, I don't believe we can't handle it. Brothers, catch the woman in the carriage, and there's a reward of one thousand taels."

They were all desperate criminals, all heading towards the carriage.

Wuyue yelled, "Young Madam!"

Jiang Yunzheng sneered, waiting for this moment.

She bent down and rushed out of the carriage, jumping onto the horse. Fortunately, the dagger cut through iron like mud. With a cut at the reins, the rope connecting the carriage broke. Jiang Yunzheng stabbed the dagger into the horse's butt and yelled at Wuyou: "Run!"

Without the assassin by her side, Wu Yu could easily escape on her own.

All the assassins will only go to capture Jiang Yunzheng.

At this time, Jiang Yunzheng had already ridden his horse forward.

Wu You saw that the situation was not good, but fortunately there was a carriage and horse shop nearby. She was just coming out after buying a horse when she saw Qi Yanyu coming with his men.

Qi Yanyu's eyes widened: "Wuyu, where is your young mistress?"

Wu Yu only regretted that her martial arts skills were not good enough. Her eyes were red. "The assassin is chasing her. I will go there now!"

Qi Yanyu quickly asked someone to ride over with her on horseback. She was worried that there were not enough people, so she prepared to go back to the Duke's Mansion to ask for reinforcements.

Wuyou plus Qi Yanyu's five guards... should be enough, right?

Qi Yanyu was still worried, so she rode another horse back to the Duke's Mansion and met Qi Yunshen at the door of the mansion.

Qi Yanyu dismounted, panting: "Brother! Go and save Sister Jiang! There are assassins chasing her!"

Qi Yunshen was dressed in black, his thin face looking even more stern. He frowned slightly and said, "Explain clearly."

Qi Yanyu told everything that happened at the palace gate just now.

Qi Yunshen's expression remained unchanged, he glanced at Qingying.

Qingying immediately bowed: "Yes."

Before Qi Yunshen left, he said to Qi Yanyu, "Mother and Second Aunt will stay at the mansion tomorrow, so don't go out."

Qi Yanyu didn't doubt him and waved to Qi Yunshen, "Then I'll take Zhenzhen to have dinner with mother tonight."

Qi Yunshen nodded and rode away.

On the other side, Jiang Yunzheng ran out of Yonglefang, which was the bank of the Grand Canal in Beijing. This place was rarely visited, and it was not easy to hide.

Jiang Yunzheng pursed her lips and jumped off the horse. She stabbed the dagger into the horse's butt again, and the horse continued to gallop forward.

Jiang Yunzheng stabbed the dagger into his waist and jumped straight into the water.

It is still autumn now, and the river bank is covered with tall reeds. Jiang Yunzheng hides in the water.

Soon the figures of the assassins appeared on the river bank.

Jiang Yunzheng did not alert the enemy. Soon a carriage drove to the riverside, and Shi Jingtao and his servant got out of the carriage.

Shi Jingtao was furious: "Where are the people?!"

The assassin leader was extremely ashamed, "Master Shi, that bitch stole the horse and ran away!"

Shi Jingtao sneered, "Keep looking for it! That woman planted Yangchunxue. If it falls into the hands of others, I will skin you alive!"

Since the assassins had not received the money yet, they naturally coaxed Shi Jingtao not to be anxious.

The servant also turned pale and dared not speak, and went with the assassins to look for the person, while Shi Jingtao kept pacing.

The court's arrangements for the new Jinshi will be announced in the next few days. Ishida has found a vacant magistrate position in Shu for Shi Jingtao.

Shi Jingtao wanted to take this opportunity to take Jiang Yunzheng away.

From then on, the sky was high and the birds flew freely, and no one could recognize who Jiang Yunzheng was.

Shi Jingtao forced himself to calm down.

But at this moment, he heard the sound of water behind him. Before he could look closely, his belt seemed to be hooked by something and he was dragged straight into the water.
