Following Nangong Zheng’s order, the DaWei soldiers stormed around the NanChu soldiers, and all the Nangong Family’s hidden guards surrounded Su Rong and the other hidden guards.
Su Rong had been injured at the back, and Zhou Gu was still feverish, the medicine had not yet taken effect in such a short time. Ye Guixue, Yin Yue, and others were also injured, and Fen Ling, who had been stabbed with a knife and a sword trying to save Zhou Gu, was now being guarded by others.
Nangong Zheng will not let Su Rong leave, and neither will the Crown Prince of Dawei, Yuan Zhao. Not only will the Poison Doctor Sect not let Su Rong go, but they also won’t let Zhou Gu, who killed their beloved Hongying, go.
Thus, the most people were surrounded, intending to kill Su Rong and Zhou Gu. The guards protecting Su Rong and Zhou Gu were falling one by one.
Su Rong felt that her death was inevitable today. After she swung out her sword, she abruptly pushed Zhou Gu towards Ye Guixue, commanding him harshly, "Ye Guixue, you take Zhou Gu and leave. Then, avenge me for today."
Ye Guixue was shocked, he held Zhou Gu, and looked at Su Rong with horror.
Without even looking at the two men, Su Rong shouted, "This is an order!", and then roared, "Everyone listens to my orders, protect Ye Guixue and Zhou Gu and leave!"
Upon her orders, the hidden guards instantly moved to protect Ye Guixue and Zhou Gu.
Ye Guixue gritted his teeth and pulled Zhou Gu away.
Zhou Gu was furious, "Su Rong, I refuse, I won’t leave."
Ye Guixue spoke calmly and quietly in his ear, "Zhou Gu, if the princess does not leave today, if you want to die with her, first heal your wounds and avenge the vengeance of today."
Not only did Su Rong understand, but also Nangong Zheng, Yuan Zhao, and Ye Guixue all realized that she wouldn’t be able to leave. Zhou Gu naturally understood, his eyes reddened, and he was silent.
She is the Nanchu princess. If she didn’t leave Su Rong today, they would fight to the death until no one could leave.
Those blocking Zhou Gu were mostly people from the Poison Doctor Sect. Yin Yue and other hidden guards desperately protected him, successfully opening a way out and helping the two of them to leave.
Of course, Su Rong was also not willing to wait for Nangong Zheng to kill her. With her sword, she fought to the death with Nangong Zheng and others. She has now given up all hope, and even if she dies here today, she also wants to kill Nangong Zheng.
Xie Yuan joined Su Rong by her side, together with her.
Upon seeing Xie Yuan, Su Rong felt guilty. She had let the guards protect Ye Guixue and Zhou Gu, but she had not thought about Xie Yuan.
Xie Yuan was carefree, "I’ve watched you grow up, I will accompany you to ask for your mother’s forgiveness in the underworld, telling her that I didn’t take good care of you."
Su Rong replied, "My mother won’t blame you, you’ve done a good job, it’s me who’s incompetent."
She underestimated not only the Nangong Family but also underestimated the national power and military power of Dawei, so that the big talk she once had in front of Yan Huisheng about wanting to devour Dawei has become a joke with her death today and her defeat at the Heiya Pass.
She was not much better than the rebel Zhang Ping.
"No, your mother originally wanted you to marry peacefully into the Duke’s residence, it was me..."
"No, it was my own decision, it has nothing to do with you." Su Rong shook her head.
As they were talking, Xie Yuan couldn’t avoid it and was stabbed with a sword. Su Rong swung out a sword, killed that person, and held Xie Yuan. At the same time, she was also chopped on the shoulder. Fen Ling rushed over and killed the person, but was also stabbed with a sword. The three of them all staggered at the same time.
Fen Ling, covered in blood, still had the mood to smile, "Sister, it’s okay, on the way to the underworld, I and the master will accompany you."
Then, he raised his brows, "Today, the three of us, even in death, we must kill..."
He didn’t say Nangong Zheng’s name but, after steadying himself, he was the first to attack Nangong Zheng, ignoring the swords falling on him.
Su Rong also had the same idea, together with Xie Yuan, they attacked Nangong Zheng with Fen Ling. The three of them no longer avoided others and directly targeted Nangong Zheng.
Nangong Zheng was soon stabbed with a sword, and the guards protected him one after another. For a moment, being outnumbered, Nangong Zheng briefly fell into passivity.
But this passivity was indeed brief. Soon, the three of them were stabbed with swords, and Nangong Zheng was protected by people. He couldn’t be killed.
Su Rong was discouraged and thought, forget it, Nangong Zheng was destined to survive. If he couldn’t be killed, then so be it!
Just when she had no strength to dodge and was waiting for a sword to stab her in the heart, suddenly a series of darts were thrown. In an instant, they knocked down the swords and daggers of the Nangong Family’s hidden guards on the other side. Immediately after, a young man’s voice rang out, "Hey, it’s the first time I’ve seen what a battlefield looks like." As soon as his words fell, he arrived nearby, holding up Su Rong’s bleeding arm with a small hand, and said another sentence, "Sister-in-law, I’m here to save you!" Then he murmured in shock and excitement, "Oh, luckily I made it in time, otherwise what would my cousin do?"
Su Rong stopped and turned to look at the person holding her arm, a young boy, no more than a teenager, handsome and tender, with a hint of youthful heroism between his brows. He seemed not at all afraid of the blood and gore of the battlefield, but his young face seemed very excited, with his eyes shining bright.
As soon as he held onto her, a large number of people arrived with him, composed of strong men in black outfits who were obviously guards, as well as men and women of all ages wielding a variety of strange looking weapons.
These people, about one to two thousand in number, took the upper hand in an instant, pushing back Nangong Zheng, the hidden guards of the DaWei Crown Prince, and the people of the Poison Doctor Sect, with bodies falling one after another.
Seeing the situation going south, Nangong Zheng immediately ordered, "Retreat!"
At this time, at the rear of DaWei, Crown Prince Yuan Zhao stopped playing the qin and looked at the battlefield, where the situation had been turned around in an instant, and also immediately ordered, "Signal the retreat!"
The people of DaWei retreated, and a clear voice from this side ordered, "Destroy the two siege cannons!"
Su Rong followed the sound and saw a teenage boy, a little older than the boy who was holding her arm. He was also dressed in a tough outfit, but the color was green and brown, made of a luxurious material, clearly distinguishing him from those in black.
Su Rong, having narrowly escaped death, felt completely drained and her body went limp as if to fall.
The young boy barely managed to hold her up, exclaimed, "Sis, sis! Hang in there!"
Supported by his firm grasp, Su Rong asked him, "You call me sister-in-law? Who are you?" 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Cui Yanjin promptly replied: "Sister-in-law, my name is Cui Yanjin, I am from the Qinghe Cui family."
Oh, Su Rong understood. It turned out to be the nephew from the Duchess’s hometown.
She really didn’t expect it, that she would be rescued by someone from the Qinghe Cui family. She asked Cui Yanjin, "Who is that person? Your older brother?"
Cui Yanjin nodded repeatedly, "Yeah, yeah, he’s my cousin, Cui Xingzhi."
