Chapter 113 Anyone who dares to take advantage of the young lady will be killed!
"Outside the city, in the hills behind Sanliting, hurry up and help the young lady!" Lianxin said excitedly, "The third and fourth young masters have been captured!"
"Let's go." Jin Wen and Jin Wu looked at each other and immediately ran out. He Changqing caught up with them and said, "I know the way!"
Seeing them all chasing after her, Lianxin breathed a sigh of relief. She took the hairpin and planned to run to the county government office. After taking two steps, her feet felt a sharp pain. Lianxin gritted her teeth, limped, and walked quickly!
Lianxin limped and jumped as she walked through the streets of Lancang County.
"Cross this street and you will reach the county government office." Lianxin said as she ran. She looked at the streets and alleys in front of her. At this moment, she was concentrating on the alley across the street and did not notice the carriage rushing towards her.
"ah……"
Lianxin was knocked to the ground by an oncoming carriage.
"Why did you suddenly jump out from here? Are you trying to kill yourself?" Guo Sheng jumped off the carriage and hurried forward. Looking at Lian Xin lying on the ground, unable to get up, he asked, "Are you okay?"
"No, it's okay." Lianxin shook her head, struggled to get up and staggered towards the alley ahead.
Guo Sheng saw that her hand was scratched and bleeding, so he walked up to her and said, "Hey, your hand is bleeding."
"It's okay." Lianxin wiped the blood off her dress and continued walking into the alley.
Guo Sheng looked at Lianxin's face in disbelief. Is this girl stupid?
Wait, why does her face look so familiar?
"You, are you the maidservant beside Miss Xiao?" Guo Sheng asked, staring at Lianxin's increasingly familiar face.
Lianxin's steps forward paused.
Guo Sheng asked confidently, "You are the maidservant beside Miss Xiao Jiuyue. What's your name, Lian?"
"Who are you?" Lianxin looked at Guo Sheng warily.
"Third Master, Jiutou Mountain." Guo Sheng mentioned Jiutou Mountain. It was they who protected it all the way to Hongdu.
"Third Prince!" Lian Xin looked back at the carriage and happened to see the carriage curtain lifted. Lian Xin felt like she had seen a savior. She rushed forward like an arrow: "Your Highness, please save my young lady!"
…
Sanli Pavilion outside the city.
"Miss, be careful." Manager Jin held a sword in his hand and saw that there was no one at Sanliting. This was the direction out of the city, with vast fields on one side and high mountains on the other.
"Today, even if it's a sea of fire and a mountain of swords, I will go." Xiao Jiuyue looked up at the towering mountain. She lifted her skirt and climbed up the moss-covered steps.
Chief Steward Jin stood behind Xiao Jiuyue, looking around warily. "This is all densely forested, on the top of the mountain, on the slopes behind, there's always the possibility of a sneak attack."
"The other party's target is me. They won't take action until they see me." Xiao Jiuyue walked calmly to the top of the hill. Standing on the top of the hill, she could clearly see that there was a dilapidated temple in the dense forest!
"Miss, please stand behind me later." Manager Jin said in a low voice.
Xiao Jiuyue lowered her eyes, pulled out a porcelain vase from her sleeve, and asked casually, "How many people can Chief Steward Jin handle at the same time?"
Manager Jin pondered for a moment before replying, "Three."
"Okay." Xiao Jiuyue nodded slightly: "Wait, follow my instructions."
As they reached the ruined temple, Xiao Jiuyue could clearly hear Xiao Jiayuan's crisp voice: "Don't even think about using me to harm my sister. Even if I die, I won't let you succeed!"
Although Xiao Jiayuan's voice was childish, the firmness in his words revealed his willingness to face death head-on!
"Boy, even if you die a thousand times, you still can't protect your sister." A man's sneering voice sounded, and his voice seemed to be mocking Xiao Jiayuan's arrogance.
"My sister is very powerful and my family has many guards. I will give you money." There was a slight tremor in Xiao Jiayuan's voice, as if he could sense his fear.
"Money? How much money can you have?" The man stared at Xiao Jiayuan's fair face and his eyes fell on his body in ordinary clothes.
"A lot." Xiao Jiayuan said, and then added: "One hundred taels."
The man sneered: "Do you know how much one hundred taels is?"
"As long as you let me go, my sister will give you one hundred taels." Xiao Jiayuan ignored the man's sneer and insisted.
"Brother, stop talking nonsense to a kid." Another male voice sounded, and he stuffed a piece of sackcloth directly into Xiao Jiayuan's mouth. The sound of Xiao Jiayuan struggling was heard.
Xiao Jiuyue heard this and said directly: "As long as you release my brother, I will not only give you 100 taels, but also give you an extra 100 taels!"
"Xiao, here comes a woman named Xiao, she's so pretty!" A pockmarked man shouted excitedly. Soon, seven or eight men surrounded her, staring at Xiao Jiuyue's face and commenting on her.
The greedy look made Xiao Jiuyue's eyes sink slightly. Manager Jin drew his sword and blocked in front of Xiao Jiuyue. With lightning speed, he attacked the pockmarked man who spoke first and cut off his hand!
Blood splattered and splashed onto Manager Jin's face. His cold face was filled with murderous intent: "Anyone who dares to attack the young lady will be killed."
"Ah..." The pockmarked man who had just pointed at Xiao Jiuyue was now covering his broken hand and screaming in pain.
"Don't move!" The man put the knife directly on Xiao Jiayuan's neck and shouted loudly. Looking at the pockmarked face with a broken hand, his face darkened. The men who were laughing just now all picked up their weapons, looking ferocious and ready to attack.
"Mmmm!" Xiao Jiayuan had a cloth stuffed in his mouth and shook his head at her frantically with red eyes.
"Sister, hurry up!" Xiao Jiachen, who had been silent all the time, yelled at Xiao Jiuyue, his clear eyes full of worry.
"Don't be afraid." Xiao Jiuyue comforted with a smile, his eyes falling on the scratches on Xiao Jiayuan and Xiao Jiachen's faces, his eyes slightly cold.
Xiao Jiuyue raised her eyes and looked at the seven of them. She stepped forward. Manager Jin, standing beside her, protected her with a sword. She looked calm, as if she wasn't afraid at all. She stepped forward and said, "I'll give you double what they gave you. Otherwise, you won't get any benefit at all!"
"Every industry has its own rules." The man was tempted for a moment.
Xiao Jiuyue smiled and said, "I can be your hostage. As long as you capture me, won't the mission be completed? Then, I'll give you money. If you lure the person who wants to capture me here, you can get double the money!"
"One hundred taels will become two hundred taels, and two hundred taels will become four hundred taels!" Xiao Jiuyue's voice was full of bewitching words. "Two kids, you caught them but they won't give you money, right?"
"Brother, I can't believe this!" Ma Zi rolled on the ground screaming in pain and shouted at the man.
"If we really fight, you're no match for us!" Xiao Jiuyue pursed her red lips. "Butler Jin, your swordsmanship is so superb that even the Emperor's guards in the prosperous Shengjing are inferior to him. Do you think you can handle a bunch of you little minions?"
"Before arresting my brother, you didn't even ask clearly about my father. He was the Minister of Revenue, a second-rank official, and even the emperor had met him." Xiao Jiuyue's voice was firm, like a sledgehammer, hitting them one by one, breaking down their psychological defenses.
Imperial Guards, Minister of Revenue, Second-Rank Official, Emperor, these words, to them, are something they have only heard from storytellers!
