Chapter 52 The Killer Attacks
It can be said that except for the three children, everyone else has a lot of them.
If nothing unexpected happens, their family should be the richest in this team.
They don’t know yet that no one can be richer than Xia Xing’er.
Xia Xing'er is now richer than the emperor. All the dog emperor's wealth is in her hands.
Xia Chengsheng was clear-headed. He glanced at the official outside the door and said in a low voice, "You have to buy it!"
"This post station must be related to these officials. At least half of the money from selling things should have gone into the officials' pockets. Everyone else is buying. If we don't buy, it will be too conspicuous."
"Besides, our things need to be brought out clearly so that we can take them out without arousing suspicion."
One is to give the officials face, and the other is to have better food on the road.
"Buy some that seem useful."
After listening to his father's words, Xia Qingyun knew what to do.
He bought a small cart, two simple tents, some pots and pans, and a few water bags.
The things here are ridiculously expensive. Just these things cost three hundred and forty-five taels of silver.
A mechanical voice rang out in Xia Xing'er's mind: "Host, there is an ambush at this post station."
From the moment Xia Xing'er entered the post station, she noticed someone in the dark, but she didn't know whether it was an enemy or a friend.
Now listening to the system reminder, it seems that these people are enemies, but I don’t know why they haven’t taken action yet.
I wonder who their target is?
Xuanyuan Yi?
Lin Yuanfeng?
Ye Hangyu?
Or their Xia family?
Xia Xing'er asked the system in her mind: "System, can you tell how many people there are?"
Decency: "There are thirty people on the other side."
Wow, there are quite a lot of them. I just wonder how skilled they are?
Let’s wait and see. If they really come to find their Xia family, then she can stretch her muscles.
When Xia Xing'er was in Meishan, she would feel uncomfortable if she didn't fight twice a day.
Since I came back from Meishan, I haven't moved or exercised my muscles for more than four years, including one year of studying etiquette and three years in the General's Mansion.
Now there are people who are willing to die and he has to satisfy them.
When the system saw its host like this, it silently lit a candle for those thirty people in its heart - wish them good luck!
At this moment, Yang was heard asking the postmaster for medicine.
"Sir, please give me some medicine to reduce my fever. My son is dying. Please, have mercy on me!"
As he said this, he knelt down in front of the postmaster and kowtowed continuously.
The postmaster glanced at Xia Qingluo who was standing next to Yang, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. "Of course I have. Since you love your son so much, I'll give you this medicine today. I'll also give you a bottle of medicine for external injuries, and a bowl of ginger soup for each of you."
"You all wait in the lobby. I'll go give the kitchen instructions."
When everyone heard that there was ginger soup to drink, they were overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly.
The postmaster waved his hand, and soon hot ginger soup was brought in.
Xia Xing'er started with the ginger soup, but she didn't drink it in a hurry.
The other members of the Xia family saw that Xia Xing'er didn't drink, so they followed suit.
Xia Xing'er asked the system in her mind: "System, see if there is anything wrong with this ginger soup."
The system's mechanical voice rang in Xia Xing'er's mind: "Host, this ginger soup has been spiked with knockout drugs."
When Xia Xing'er heard what the system said, she thought to herself that it was indeed true.
You are really being too nice to me for no reason. You are either a traitor or a thief. You are not deceiving me!
As soon as the people from the Dong family got the ginger soup, they couldn't wait to drink it, not caring about the burn.
They had eaten a cold, hard steamed bun all day yesterday, so now they would drink a bowl of boiled water even if they were offered it.
Within a quarter of an hour after drinking a bowl of ginger soup, some people fell to the ground one after another.
Soon, a large group of people collapsed in the hall. The Xia family members looked at each other and fell to the ground.
Zhang San, who was outside the door, heard the noise inside the house. He turned around and saw everyone falling down.
He was startled and wanted to rush in, but Wang Xiaoer beside him grabbed his arm and said, "Let's not get involved in things like this, so we can live longer."
Seeing that Zhang San was still trying to open his arms, she continued, "Think about your family. Do you want to go back alive to see them? What will happen to them if something happens to you?"
In this situation, it is obvious that someone wants to kill Prince Zhennan. For people like them, going up would be suicide. All they can do now is to protect themselves.
Besides, when they set out, someone from their superiors had told them not to stop anyone from trying to assassinate Prince Zhennan.
If Prince Zhennan was unlucky and got killed, it was his own bad fate and had nothing to do with them.
Wang Xiaoer thought coldly.
Zhang San held the hilt of the knife tightly with his hand, and a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes.
His eyes looked towards the carriage of the palace, and a trace of powerlessness flashed across his eyes.
Liuyun and Liuxing stood beside the carriage, looking around coldly, and said in a cold voice: "Since you are here, please show yourself and don't hide."
As soon as Liuxing finished speaking, more than thirty men in black clothes, with their faces covered and swords in their hands, appeared in the post station.
Xuanyuan Yi looked at these people from the carriage with a gloomy face. He was really his good royal brother. He really didn't want him to be alive!
Do you really want to eradicate him completely because you are afraid of his counterattack?
The chair under my butt seems to be unstable, and I am always worried that others will notice me.
Noble Concubine Xi was trembling as she held Nanny Fang's hand. She had never seen such a situation in all her years.
And these people are coming for them. Are they all going to die here today?
The man in black was well-trained. After appearing, he didn't waste any words. His target was very clear. He went straight to hack at the carriage of Prince Zhennan.
"Liuxing, protect the prince and the princess dowager."
After Liuxing finished speaking, he rushed out with his sword raised.
He kicked away the knife that was rushing towards him and rushed into the group of people in black and started fighting.
Although Liuxing was agile, he gradually began to feel exhausted amidst the dense clashing of swords and sabers.
The wound on the back of his hand was bleeding, staining his sleeve red, dripping onto the cold stone slab, and instantly swallowed by the night.
Immediately afterwards, a man in black took advantage of his unpreparedness and pounced from the side and rear. With a flash of cold light, another deep wound that could be seen to the bone was added to Liuxing's leg. He staggered and almost couldn't stand.
"Meteor!" Xuanyuan Yi's voice rang out from the carriage, undeniably resolute. "Liuyun, go help him!"
Liuyun gripped his sword tightly, his eyes shifting between Xuanyuan Yi and the men in black who were closing in on him.
His reason told him that he could not go, as his responsibility was to protect the prince and the queen dowager.
When the meteor falls, they will still come to kill you, and then the prince and his men will be in danger.
Finally, she met Xuanyuan Yi's determined gaze. Although she was extremely reluctant, she knew that the overall situation was more important at the moment.
He took a deep breath and whispered to Xuanyuan Yi, "Your Majesty, you and the Concubine Dowager must be careful."
After saying that, his figure flashed and he rushed towards the battlefield like an arrow from a bow. His sword shone like a dragon and he instantly joined the melee. He stood back to back with Meteor, jointly resisting attacks from all directions.
