Chapter 158 Mother Can No Longer Protect You
Yan Xi was silent for a while.
He looked at the person inside the bed curtain, and his face lost all color.
"Take good care of her."
After saying that, he pushed the door and walked out.
That night, Chen Yuan walked out carrying a plate of blood. This was the first time she stepped out of the room after being locked up for so many days.
This is an abandoned house. Chen Yuan couldn't tell where it was. There were so many abandoned houses like this.
She quickened her pace and walked out, when a secret guard suddenly appeared in front of her and blocked her way.
Chen Yuan raised her face with a bloody face. Her face was covered in blood and her original appearance could not be seen at all.
She pointed to the room where she was locked up, then pointed to the copper basin and made a gesture as if drawing water.
The secret guard frowned and pointed her in a direction.
Shen Yuan lowered his head and quickened his pace.
Finally escaping.
Late at night, when Yan Xi closed his eyes, all he could think of was the image of Shen Yuan covered in blood.
He regretted it. Compared to that evil creature, he cared more about Xiao Yuan'er's health.
Wearing only his undershirt, he walked quickly towards Chen Yuan's room.
Mother Shen sat there with her head propped up, dozing off.
Hearing the noise, he stood up suddenly.
She was making too much noise, and Yan Xi couldn't help but frown and made a sighing gesture to her.
He walked to the bed, and at the moment when he pinched the bed curtain with his hand, he was pulled by Shen's mother.
Mother Shen held Yan Xi's hand and refused to give in.
Yan Xi said in a very low voice, "I only looked at Xiao Yuan'er once, just once."
Mother Shen's face was too tense, and Yan Xi frowned.
He suddenly pushed Mother Shen away and pulled open the bed curtain. Where was Shen Yuan lying on the bed?
It was clearly a mute girl who was in coma.
Yan Xi's expression suddenly changed. He raised his hand and pinched Mother Shen's neck, "Where's Xiao Yuan'er? Where did you hide her?"
A feeling of being teased filled his whole body.
He was furious, and the hand that was pinching Shen's mother's neck tightened inch by inch, "Where is the person!"
Mother Shen was almost choked to death. She looked at Yan Xi calmly and said, "Xi'er, stop it. Don't make the same mistake again. Nannan is gone. You will never find her again."
Yan Xi angrily threw her to the ground, "Come here, no matter what the cost, you must get her back!"
He can't lose Chen Yuan again, he can't!
Father Shen stumbled over and slapped Mother Shen hard.
"You foolish woman! Where did you hide the Saint? You deserve to die a hundred times for ruining His Highness's plans!"
Mother Shen stared at Father Shen coldly, "You are crazy! All of you are crazy! With Gu Huailing in Dajin, no one can overthrow it even after a hundred years. You are courting your own death!"
Father Shen's back was no longer hunched. He drew his knife and pointed it at Mother Shen, "Tell me where you hid the person?"
Mother Shen looked at the cold blade, and the faces of Shen Zhao and Shen Yuan appeared in her mind.
She couldn't allow herself to become a burden that threatened her children!
Zhao'er and daughter, please forgive your mother for not being able to take care of you and protect you anymore.
Mother Shen got up from the ground and rushed towards Father Shen!
"don't want!"
It was too late for Yan Xi to pull Mother Shen away.
The sword pierced Shen's mother's chest, and she fell to the ground, spitting out blood. She flopped twice on the shore like a fish and was no longer able to breathe.
Father Shen looked at the fallen Father Shen in disbelief.
Yan Xi grabbed Shen's father by the collar and gritted his teeth, "Who told you to kill her!"
Mother Chen is dead, and Xiao Yuan'er will never forgive him in this life!
Father Shen had never expected that a woman who had been gentle all her life would suddenly become so strong.
He looked at Mother Shen who was lying on the ground as if he had lost his mind.
Yan Xi clenched his fists and took a deep breath, "Bury him properly!"
He turned and walked out, his figure disappearing into the night.
After Chen Yuan escaped from the house, he ran all the way.
She finally recognized where she was. This was Yizhou. Yan Xi actually brought her to Yizhou!
Although Yizhou had mostly recovered, there were still not many people around late at night.
Chen Yuan ran quickly towards the capital. She needed a horse. Only with a horse could she escape faster!
She wasn't sure when Yan Xi would catch up, and she was still concerned about her mother's comfort.
She knew that Yan Xi would not kill her mother, he would keep her mother to threaten her.
There was a dull pain in her lower abdomen, and Shen Yuan gently stroked her stomach with her hand, "Child, you have to hold on. Once you see your father, we will be safe!"
The sound of horse hooves behind me was particularly irritating on this quiet road!
Yan Xi actually caught up with her, and Shen Yuan's heart was beating very fast.
Suddenly a hand stretched out in front of her. Shen Yuan raised her eyes and a handsome face appeared in front of her.
"Ma'am, why are you here?"
It was Ye Xingzhang. After the disaster in Yizhou, Gu Huailing transferred him here to be the prefect.
The terrain of Yizhou is complex and the situation is even more complicated. Gu Huailing's move is to train him.
Chen Yuan made a hushing gesture to Ye Xingzhang, who immediately nodded and helped him into the carriage.
In the distance, Yan Xi came with a group of secret guards, and everyone surrounded the carriage.
"Who's in the car? Get out!"
The secret guard drew his knife and pointed it at the carriage.
Yan Xi sat on the horse, staring at the carriage without blinking.
"Who dares to act so presumptuously in my Yizhou territory?"
A clear voice came from the carriage.
Ye Xingzhang lifted the car curtain and looked at Yan Xi in the darkness.
He narrowed his eyes and said, "I am Ye Xingzhang, the governor of Yizhou. Who are you?"
Yan Xi looked at him and said, "So it's the prefect. My wife and I had some conflicts and she ran away late at night. I came here specifically to look for her."
"I wonder if you have seen a woman?"
Ye Xingzhang frowned, "Since she's missing, follow me back to the government office and draw a picture of your wife. I'll send someone to help you find her."
Yan Xi smiled wryly, "That's not necessary, I'll go find someone else."
Ye Xingzhang said stubbornly, "Since the person is not found in my Yizhou territory, I have no choice but to help. You should come back to the government office with me."
Yan Xi narrowed his eyes and stepped aside to make way. "Thank you for your kindness, sir. But my wife is very shy. If everyone knew about this, she would be angry."
Ye Xingzhang nodded and said, "If you can't find anyone, you must come to the government office."
After saying that, he lowered the curtain, and his hands behind him were already clenched tightly together.
In the Yizhou prefecture, Ye Xingzhang looked at Chen Yuan's pale face and immediately wanted to call a doctor.
Chen Yuan shook her head at him. "No, Yan Xi is a suspicious person by nature. Asking for a doctor at this time will definitely arouse his suspicion. Sir Ye, do you have any way to contact him?"
Ye Xingzhang frowned, "Don't worry, Madam. I have a secret contact who is specifically contacting you."
Shen Yuan nodded with a tired look on his face.
Ye Xingzhang bowed respectfully to her, "Madam, please go to bed early. I will personally watch over you."
Shen Yuan nodded, "Thank you for your help, Master Ye."
She has no strength left now.
Ye Xingzhang retreated respectfully and stood guard outside the door himself.
The moonlight tonight is particularly cold.
He never thought that one day he would be separated from her by a door.
That's already good.
Ye Xingzhang looked at the moonlight, and a faint smile appeared on his handsome face.
The news quickly reached the capital, and upon receiving it, Gu Huailing immediately rushed to Yizhou overnight.
