Chi Qingqing didn't say what came next, but both of them understood.
It's good to befriend Mengyao, but if you can get close to the Crown Prince, who would want to curry favor with the Crown Princess?
No matter how powerful the Crown Princess is, she still has to live at the mercy of the Crown Prince.
Neither of them are the type to stay put, so it's normal for them to have ulterior motives.
If Mengyao knew, she would probably regret it to death.
"By the way, Sister Qingqing, what do you think Han Luoxue is doing?"
"It hasn't been long since the New Year, could she have run away again?"
If they come all this way only to find nothing, then it would be a huge loss.
"She probably won't go out, right?"
The two exchanged a glance, but Chi Qingqing was quicker to think: "It's okay. If she's not here, our family will just arrest her relatives."
"Hmph, let's see if she comes to rescue them later."
Yu Xiaoxiao nodded hurriedly, praising Chi Qingqing for being smart and thoughtful.
When the carriage arrived at Wuling Town, it was already late, so the two decided to stay there for the night.
"This town seems pretty good." It looks quite lively, almost comparable to the capital city.
There are quite a few people doing business, and several shops have opened.
"Shopkeeper, you seem to be doing quite well." Yu Xiao smiled innocently and greeted the shopkeeper.
"Young lady, are you from out of town?"
"Yes, we've just arrived in your town."
"Haha, we're living a good life here. Do you know, young lady, that everyone in our town has enough to eat?"
Under normal circumstances, the two of them would have scoffed at such words, but in this day and age, there are very few places that can do this.
"Because there's a very capable person in our town."
The shopkeeper proudly raised his head, which made the two even more curious:
"A capable person?"
"Yes, it's Miss Han."
Upon hearing the name "Miss Han," the two exchanged a glance:
"Is the Miss Han you're talking about Han Luoxue?"
"Yes, so you two have also heard of Miss Han."
"Ahem, I've met her twice." Yu Xiao smiled awkwardly, not expecting Han Luoxue to be so famous.
"Then you are lucky. Miss Han is a Bodhisattva reincarnated. If it weren't for her, we probably would have starved to death long ago."
The shopkeeper wanted to say something more about Han Luoxue, but the two of them were no longer in the mood to listen.
What skills does that woman possess?
Why do so many people like her?
Chi Qingqing clenched her fists, wishing she could kill that bitch Han Luoxue right now.
Damn it.
She cheated them out of so many embroidery products.
"Wow, I didn't know she was so famous."
Yu Xiaoxiao was also very upset. In Beijing, she looked down on Han Luoxue, that country bumpkin.
"So what if she's famous? We'll go find her tomorrow."
Chi Qingqing's eyes were cold. The people she brought also needed to rest, otherwise she would go and settle accounts with Han Luoxue tonight.
"Let me find out if she's home."
It just so happens that he is famous; otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy to find out about someone.
...
Under the cover of darkness, everyone in Han Mingyuan's family was fast asleep. Han Luoxue had been sleeping even more lately, probably because the child was getting older.
Doctor Xu said that her child was very healthy, and Han Luoxue jokingly asked if it was twins.
Doctor Xu rolled his eyes at him: "One child is enough. You should be content."
Han Luoxue, well, she's overthinking it.
She just thought it would be nice to have two children at once. If it's a boy and a girl, they can keep each other company, and there's no need to have a second child later.
To avoid suffering once.
At that moment, several dark figures quietly approached from outside the courtyard.
The leader glanced at the courtyard wall, which was as tall as a person; it was far too easy for them.
"We'll go in in a bit. Capture the young girls alive, and the rest of them..."
He made a throat-slitting gesture, and everyone nodded.
Five or six men in black separated, their agile bodies leaping nimbly into the courtyard like monkeys in the mountains.
The yard was pitch black at this time, and everyone was already fast asleep.
The men in black were delighted; using these experts to deal with villagers who couldn't even kill a chicken was a waste of their talents.
Not far from the courtyard, a carriage was parked in the shadows.
"Sister Qingqing, do you think they will succeed?"
"Hmph, don't worry about my men. Even if there are ten families, let alone one family of peasants, they won't be able to escape."
"I'll make Han Luoxue beg for mercy at my feet in a moment!"
"Woof woof woof woof..."
Just as the two were talking, they suddenly heard a continuous barking of dogs.
The two were stunned. Did Han Luoxue keep dogs at home? At this time, most families were struggling to get enough to eat. Was Han Luoxue out of her mind? She even had food to feed animals.
"Useless, utterly useless."
They didn't even think to deal with the dog first.
The dog's barking could wake even a sleeping pig.
However, what the two were unaware of was that Han Mingyuan's courtyard was actually quite lively at that moment.
Five Tibetan mastiffs and six men in black were now rolling around together.
These men in black are supposed to be skilled in martial arts, and ordinary dogs shouldn't be able to do anything to them.
But these dogs in front of us are no ordinary dogs.
They didn't make a sound when they heard someone coming in, but after everyone had entered, they pounced on them frantically.
The men in black were skilled in martial arts, but they were wolfhounds, which were inherently fierce. They had also been trained by several tiger cubs in the space, so their speed was even more incredible.
Ordinary wolves are no match for them, and these men in black, although skilled, are...
They weren't killers, and they were still struggling against these black dogs.
The barking of the dog also woke up the people who were sleeping soundly in the room.
Han Luoxue tried to get up, but Han Yuchen grabbed her shoulder.
"Xue'er, you go back to sleep, I'll go out and take a look."
Be careful.
Although Han Yuchen had gone out, Han Luoxue was still worried, so she got up and went to the door to look outside.
Han Yuchen's lips twitched violently when he saw the people fighting in the yard.
This guy doesn't look like a professional killer at all.
It seems they're not here to kill me.
If the Crown Prince had sent someone to hunt him down, he wouldn't have chosen such a rookie.
Who could it be? Han Yuchen pondered. But for now, he needed to deal with these people first.
These black dogs wouldn't harm anyone without their master's command. But the men in black showed no restraint; a faint smell of blood filled the air, and two of the dogs were already injured.
Han Yuchen's gaze turned cold. He picked up his bow and arrow and shot a shot at one of the men in black.
Han Yuchen was already a skilled archer. In the past few years in Hutouya Village, although he hadn't touched a battlefield bow, he made his own hunting bow and arrows, and usually hit the target every time.
Moreover, the man in black was being harassed by dogs, so even if he heard the wind, he couldn't move much.
With a piercing scream, a man in black staggered as the arrow struck him squarely in the chest. Though he didn't die instantly, the pain sent a cold sweat through him, rendering him unable to fight.
Han Yuchen no longer hesitated, drew his bow and nocked an arrow, the second, the third, the fourth...
