The Prince of Runan and the old lady were all shocked. "Was it Li Ruo who harmed you?"
But Zhang Shuer could only call out Li Ruo's name in terror, unable to say anything else.
"It must be her!" The Prince of Runan paced back and forth. "I must kill her to avenge Shu'er and Fei'er!"
When Zhang Fei, the one-eyed man, heard that his sister had woken up, he ran over and said, "Shu'er, it's your second brother, Shu'er."
Zhang Yun also came. Her two older brothers doted on their younger sister. They were both happy and heartbroken. Although she had woken up, she couldn't walk or lift her hands, making her practically useless.
Zhang Shuer tried to grab her brother's sleeve, but found that she couldn't get any strength in her hand. She screamed, "No, no! I don't want to!"
She tried to get out of bed, almost rolling off, when something occurred to her and she went completely mad, screaming, "Li Ruo, it's her! It's her! Husband, where's my husband?"
The old lady glanced at everyone, not wanting her granddaughter to suffer any more setbacks, and said, "He's fine."
Zhang Fei's face was extremely sinister. "Shu'er, you wait. Sooner or later, we will make that Li Ruo suffer a thousand times more pain than you."
Suddenly, a soldier ran over and said, "Your Highness, Huaqing Temple has been attacked. I heard it was by wealthy and wicked people."
Everyone was startled.
Is the wealthy the wrong people?
The Prince of Runan hurriedly went out.
Sure enough, looking from the pagoda, Huaqing Temple was ablaze with flames and billowing smoke. "Why would the Fuyou Wrong Gang come here to attack?"
Judging from their attack route, if Huaqing Temple is captured, they might be next.
"Yun'er, take the guards and come with me to take a look."
With the incident at Huaqing Temple, the Prince of Runan was in a state of panic. The old lady comforted her granddaughter, told people to take good care of her, and then hurriedly went to the front hall.
Not long after she left, the two maids in the side room suddenly cried out "Ah!" and collapsed instantly.
As Zhang Shu'er lay on the bed, she turned her head and saw a man slowly walking towards her.
"you--"
She was knocked unconscious before she could even call out the name.
It had been less than half an hour since she woke up.
The man carried her on his back and walked outside.
"Did you know? The second young lady has woken up."
"Seriously, they're incredibly lucky to be alive."
Hearing the two maids talking, Li Ruo, hiding in the darkness, frowned. "Ha, she's really lucky to be alive. It seems the Prince's mansion still has too many thousand-year-old ginseng roots."
She quietly headed towards the side room, and with a wave of her hand, she was about to pack her things when the system beeped and issued a warning.
Someone's there!
At the same time, Li Ruo also sensed it. She looked to the side and saw a masked man around the corner carrying someone on his back. He was a little far away and couldn't see clearly, but his eyes were definitely looking at her.
Even from such a distance, Li Ruo could still feel the intense resentment in those eyes.
Her heart skipped a beat, and as she was about to run over, the person turned and disappeared.
"Oh no! Oh no! The Second Miss is missing!"
The maids who had been gossiping earlier gasped in surprise, and the guards from all corners immediately rushed over. Li Ruo knew that the matter was beyond repair, so she slipped away and ran.
As he ran, he wondered, "Where is Zhang Shu'er?"
So, the person carrying that person was Zhang Shu'er?
Who would do that!
When a name flashed through her mind, Li Ruo felt a chill run down her spine and took two quicker steps.
The road down was chaotic, because Qinghua Mountain was home not only to the Prince of Runan and the Prince of Jiangning, but also to many wealthy families and ordinary people.
This actually made it easier for Li Ruo to escape.
Because she was wearing the uniform of the Prince of Jiangning's guards, no one stopped her, and Li Ruo ran away alone.
Xu Dafu and Chen He, along with their men, also charged up, and nearly slashed at Li Ruo with their swords.
"It's me! Dafu!"
Xu Dafu got goosebumps from the address. "Boss, could you have been a little later?"
Chen He and Yang Huahua cried tears of joy, "Sister, you're alright!"
"Go away, how could anything happen to me?" Li Ruo shouted, "Brothers, once we've killed enough, let's get back to the ship."
The Prince of Runan's men have arrived.
I wonder if they will join forces. This is their home turf, and those civilians could be targeting anyone, so it's a bit dangerous.
However, everyone knew how powerful the Fuyou Cuobang was, so they wouldn't rashly pursue them.
This is why Li Ruo took the risk of bringing the newly subdued Fu You Cuo Gang into battle.
"We'll stay on the water and stall them for two days. Once news of our attack on Qinghua Mountain reaches the ears of the Prince of Jiangning, he will surely return with his troops to save the mountain."
As expected, Yang Huan dared not pursue them. Firstly, the Fuyou Gang was highly skilled in naval warfare, and he could not act rashly. Secondly, he feared that the Prince of Runan might be waiting in the wings.
Seeing that Fu Youcuo had retreated to the water and that the situation was still unclear, the Prince of Runan knew he could not possibly pursue him.
"What exactly happened with this wealthy and powerful gang? Where is the Prince of Jiangning? How could you be no match for a small gang?"
Yang Huan said to the Prince of Runan, "This wealthy man has colluded with Li Ruo, as Your Highness knows. That woman is involved in kerosene and rockets. Even Young Master Zhang has suffered at his hands. I am no match for Young Master Zhang, so it is not surprising that I am no match for him."
"What? Li Ruo is here too!" Great, he was just about to go and settle accounts with her.
Yang Huan's eyes flashed. Sure enough, the Prince of Runan was jealous of Li Ruo. "Your Highness, this woman is cunning and somewhat sinister. Why don't we go to your Huaning Temple to discuss this further?"
"Okay, where is your prince?"
"Alas, the temple was somewhat damaged by Li Ruo's kerosene. The prince has ordered people to clean and repair it, and I will take care of the affairs outside."
Yang Huan wanted the Prince of Runan's help, but he was also afraid that the old fox would take the opportunity to devour them.
