Chapter 72. Suicide for Love



Who on earth had suddenly captured her? And he was able to quietly eliminate her guards without making any sound. This person must not be an ordinary person.

There was no time to panic now. The carriage was going further and further off the track. At first the girls were still chatting and laughing, but later they all realized that something was wrong.

Yurong whispered, "Don't make any noise now. I want to see what they want to do."

Li Rui and Xue Bai had never seen such a scene before. Although they were maids, they grew up in a wealthy family like the Yu Wei family. Even in a remote place like Qingzhou, they lived in the government office and had never encountered any danger.

But seeing Yurong so calm, they also calmed down a little.

"Grandma, will we be okay?" The eldest master is so kind to the grandma, he will definitely find a way to rescue her.

Especially Li Rui trusted Wei Xuanning the most and knew for sure that he would come to save them.

Anyway, as long as they ask for something, they will get out alive.

But Yurong frowned: "They want to kill us, and even throw our bodies into the wild, so as to shock the whole Qingzhou." Since ancient times, people die for money and birds die for food. I believe that future officials will not dare to act rashly.

Although the means are extreme, they are extremely effective.

Several maids were anxious, and Xuebai was so scared that she couldn't help asking: "Then what shall we do today——"

"Maybe we will meet King Yan today." This is nothing strange. Yurong even thinks that these people have chosen a very good day. Who would have thought that they would be robbed silently after having been robbed countless times.

She has always been calm about death because she can always turn misfortune into fortune.

Bi Tao looked at Yu Rong deeply, and pushed her, saying, "Miss, run away quickly. I'll push you out from the back, and you just run quickly. His carriage is moving so fast, and one person missing won't be able to find anything."

She had grown up with Yurong since she was a child, and watched her become the current Mrs. Wei step by step. Her death would not be a big deal, but the young lady had just given birth to a child, and she couldn't die like this.

Yu Rong did not expect that Bitao would jump out at this moment. In her previous life, Bitao had betrothed a servant before she entered the palace. Her servants were all rewards from Princess Han.

I didn't expect this girl to be so loyal.

She smiled and said, "It's okay. The horses' hooves are neighing all around. We are already surrounded. Even if I get off the carriage, I can't escape. It's better to wait and see."

"Miss, you have a good idea."

"Hey, don't worry." Yurong looked at Bitao and patted her hand soothingly.

Bitao, who was always calm and generous, actually blushed, not for anything else, but because of Yurong's demeanor. Although she was not a man, she could give everyone a sense of security.

The carriage is still running, seemingly without end...

Suddenly, the carriage stopped and several maids were trembling.

There were about seven or eight people outside, all dressed in black. They looked at each other and thought that the Artemisia annua bushes here were a perfect place to kill someone and hide the body.

It was not to kill the master again, or to threaten Wei Xuan Ning, but a warning.

One death.

They nodded to each other, opened the curtain and prepared to kill.

"What? Grandma has been kidnapped." Wei Xuanning was reading in the study after sending Yurong off. After a while, someone came to report that there were several corpses lying on the street, and they were all Wei family guards.

He was about to leave immediately, but was stopped by Xu Gong, "Master, your body is worth thousands of gold, how can you do this for a woman?"

In the Wei family, Wei Xuanning's life is more important than anyone else's. This is what Wei Xiang said. Sometimes even the old lady is not as good as Wei Xuanning. How could they let him take risks?

But Wei Xuanning said, "If it weren't for Yurong on our way here, I would have died long ago."

Mr. Xu hurriedly said, "Why bother you to save the grandmother? I will arrange it for you. We, the Wei family, have brought a lot of guards."

"No, I'll go."

There should be no one in the world who would be more dedicated to saving Yurong than him. Those servants already had a prejudice against the Yang family's daughter, and they even resented him for being suppressed by the emperor. If Yurong was gone, they might even think it would be better!

"Mr. Xu, don't hold me back."

After all, he was young and tall, so if he wanted to go out, Xu Gong couldn't stop him. But he couldn't hide his worry, so he quickly ordered the guards to follow him.

Only if he goes out, will these masters working in the open and in secret truly cooperate. Wei Xuanning couldn't wait to ride his horse forward, not daring to delay for a moment.

The traces along the way were easy to find, because these people just wanted to let Wei Xuanning know that no official had the final say here.

Just like during the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the literati had the final say and profit was everything.

Wei Xuanning had never been so panicked before. His wife, who was smiling in the morning, might be killed by a thief.

He had never been so distraught before, and all he wanted was to find Yurong.

"Young Master, look ahead, that's the carriage that Grandma is riding in today."

Wei Xuanning hurriedly ran off the horse. There were seven or eight men in black lying on the ground. Their eyes were all pierced by silver needles. They died in a horrible way. The guards carefully lifted the lid of the carriage, but found that there was no one inside.

There were only a bunch of green poles nearby, and the subordinates said, "Young Master, we can go and look for it. Since ancient times, the sons of wealthy families have never been allowed to sit in the hall, so you must not put yourself in danger."

"No, I'm going to go find Yurong. I'm sure she'll be fine."

These people in black were dead, not to mention Yurong. Wei Xuanning seemed to feel like he was about to cry. If Yurong was gone, what would he do? If he had known, he would not have come to Qingzhou.

He was truly filled with regret. If anything really happened to Yurong, he would dig the murderer out even if he had to dig deep into the ground.

Today he was wearing a snow-white suit. He usually cared a lot about his clothes, but now he didn't care about anything and just kept running around here. The juice of the green pole was spilling on him, but he didn't care at all.

"Master, there seem to be footprints here."

Wei Xuanning was very happy when he saw the series of messy footsteps. He liked Yurong's feet and knew her size. Her feet were small, so their feet were especially small when they stepped on the ground.

"Rongrong, Rongrong, where are you?" he shouted as he walked.

Yurong was already lying on the ground exhausted. She had just escaped from her confinement after giving birth. She used her hidden weapon in a panic, and ran here desperately for fear of being caught.

Bi Tao worriedly asked, "Miss, is your stomach okay?"

"Bitao, it hurts." Yurong couldn't help but want to cry.

"Miss, let me rub it for you."

"Rongrong, Rongrong..."

Yurong seemed to hear a voice approaching from far away. She stood up and said to Bitao in surprise, "It's Brother Xuanning, it's Brother Xuanning, he's here."

Bitao also breathed a sigh of relief.

Walking towards the sound, the sunlight just happened to shine on her body. Wei Xuanning ran over like crazy and hugged her tightly, "I'm glad you're okay, I'm glad you're okay. If it were a little bit, I would not be able to see you."

She seemed more important than she thought.

After hugging Yurong, Wei Xuanning refused to let go. He asked his personal bodyguard to hurry up, while he personally accompanied Yurong in the carriage.

"Were you the one in black just now?"

Yurong nodded, "My father is the confidant of the Empress and has been protecting her all year round, so I often put hidden weapons on my sleeves. Along the way, I pretended not to know, so that the group of people thought I was a weak woman, and then they put hidden weapons on me one by one."

She didn’t know how long she had practiced in her previous life before she could protect herself.

Even the personal maid may not know about these hidden weapons. It is safest if you know all the details yourself.

"There were eight people. How did you release them? It's so amazing." Wei Xuanning praised her in an attempt to calm her down.

It seems that we cannot take it slowly in this broken place of Qingzhou, and we must use thunder and lightning methods. While praising him, he was thinking in his mind.

Yurong had a stomachache, but when he rubbed her and praised her, she said shyly, "I was thinking about how sad Brother Xuan Ning would be if I died, so I have to do everything I can to protect myself."

When she said this, Wei Xuanning felt his heart break. "It's my fault. I didn't protect you. Don't worry, I will protect you in the future."

In the past, he always thought that people who committed suicide for love were stupid, especially stupid. Life is so good, why would they die for a woman or a man? But now he probably understands that the person who watched the sun and moon with you and shared the wind and thunder with you is gone, so what is the point of your living?

"Be good, you will arrive in no time. With me here, you don't have to worry about anything."

Yurong had been very worried just now, but now that all her worries were shared by someone, she fell into a deep sleep instantly.

She seemed to be very strong mentally and could always sleep through it, as if she encountered this kind of thing often. But how could she, a woman in a well-off family, encounter such a thing?

Forget it. No matter what her background is, he must protect her well.

Mr. Xu heaved a sigh of relief when he received the news that Wei Xuanning had returned safely. He said to Lord Lin, the leader of the Wei family guards standing beside him, "That's good, that's good."

Lord Lin couldn't help but ask Mr. Xu in confusion: "The eldest son asked me to protect the eldest grandmother as I protected him in the future. Look at this..."

I once remembered that when the eldest son went out with Miss Gao and the eldest daughter, whenever they encountered danger, the eldest son would go alone. Usually in such a situation, the first thing the eldest son would say would be "Protect me, retreat first." Why did he insist on protecting the eldest lady today?

But it is obvious that the grandmother does not need anyone's protection. Those eight people today were all masters, but they were killed with just one needle. The poison was applied by Yu Lanhua from the Western Regions. There is no antidote for this poison, but it can kill people in one move.

Chief Lin felt that the eldest lady was clearly a very powerful person, but she acted very weak in front of the eldest son. The eldest son was such a smart person, yet he couldn't see through her.

But no matter what, they still have to obey the orders of the eldest master.

Xu Gong was helpless, "Forget it, I will do as the eldest master says in the future."

If you continue to protect him and retreat first as you did before, ignoring the girl from the Yang family, I'm afraid he will kill you first.
