In a remote alley in Huzhou City, a young girl stopped at a street corner and carefully looked around. Then she hurried into the alley, stopped in front of a remote wooden door, and raised her hand to knock.

“Knock knock!”

There was a knock on the door and a deep voice came from inside.

"The king of heaven covers the tiger of earth."

The girl whispered back, "Chicken stewed with mushrooms."

As soon as he finished speaking, the gate opened and a burly man appeared behind the gate. He looked at both sides of the alley and then stepped aside to let the girl in.

In the yard, a beautiful woman wearing a loose gauze skirt and with a slightly bulging belly immediately stood up and turned to look at the girl.

When the girl saw the woman standing up, she quickly walked over and supported her: "Miss, you are still pregnant, please be gentle."

The woman shook her head and said calmly, "My husband is still in the tiger's den, I really can't take care of this child... Juan'er, is there any news?"

"Yes." The maid named Juan'er nodded and whispered, "There is a man named Min Taizhang in the Ministry of Personnel of the rebel army. He spread the news that the rebel leader wants to reward all officials, so he needs a batch of good cloth to make official uniforms..."

"Very good!"

The woman's tone was delighted, but her face remained calm: "Juan'er, I can't be involved in this matter. You go to the Liu family and borrow their cloth shop's name to take over this order. Send a batch of cloth in. We will disguise ourselves and follow them. Maybe we can sneak into Hangzhou."

Juan'er nodded, and then asked with a worried look on her face: "Miss, do you really want to go back to find your uncle?"

Su Tan'er glanced at her and said firmly, "Wherever my husband is, I will be there!"

"Don't worry, Miss Juan'er, I will send your young lady to Hangzhou City safely..."

A calm voice came from behind the master and servant.

Su Tan'er turned around and saw a tall woman walking out from the room.

The woman had a sallow complexion and a slightly long face, and looked like a country girl in her thirties. However, from her calm eyes that were filled with spiritual energy, one could still see her extraordinary demeanor.

She must have changed her appearance!

Su Tan'er knew it very well, but she did not point it out. Instead, she bowed earnestly and said, "Then I'll leave it to Miss Lu!"

Miss Lu nodded and was about to turn around and leave when she suddenly heard a noise coming from outside the alley.

"……who?"

The burly man waiting at the gate spoke vigilantly.

But Miss Lu said nothing. She bent her knees slightly, leaped up like an eagle, and landed in the alley.

Then, the sound of fierce fighting was heard in the alley.

Su Tan'er and her maid Juan'er suddenly became a little nervous. The man waiting at the door gritted his teeth, grabbed the wooden stick beside him, rushed to Su Tan'er, protected the two of them, and looked at the gate vigilantly.

"Guardian Geng, aren't you going to help Miss Lu?"

“…” Guardian Geng whispered, “Miss, Miss Lu is very skilled in martial arts, far better than me. She is such a master that I can fight her. Even if I rush out, it will be useless. I might even drag Miss Lu down.”

At this point, Guardian Geng paused and whispered, "Miss, let's leave through the secret passage as soon as possible, just in case..."

“Bang!”

Before he could finish his words, a figure broke through the gate like a cannonball and flew into the yard along with the scattered wood chips.

The man rolled several times in the air, and rolled several more times after landing. Then he stood up, holding two swords, and looked at the three figures outside the courtyard gate with a vigilant and solemn expression.

"...Ms. Lu?!"

Guardian Geng looked astonished, as if he had not expected that the person eavesdropping outside the alley could not even defeat Miss Lu.

Su Tan'er frowned slightly, forced herself to suppress the fear in her heart, grabbed Juan'er's arm, and looked towards the door.

I saw three unfamiliar figures standing outside the courtyard gate. The man on the left was tall, handsome, and had a stern expression. He held a jet-black iron spear in his hand, with the tip of the spear pointing slightly at the ground, flashing a cold edge.

It was the person who had just fought with Miss Lu.

The man on the right has a handsome face and a lazy temperament. His right hand is lightly placed on his waist, and he seems a little absent-minded.

As for the man in the middle, he is the most handsome of the three.

The man was holding a white folding fan in his hand and was looking helplessly at Miss Lu in the yard.

"Girl, I told you a long time ago that the three of us brothers just happened to pass by and didn't mean to eavesdrop. You didn't believe me and insisted on fighting us. Look, now something bad has happened, right?"

"…Who are you?"

Miss Lu looked alert and stern. She moved her steps slightly and stood in front of Su Tan'er and the other two.

The handsome young man in white shirt smiled slightly, put away his folding fan, and said with a bow, "My name is Zuo Yu, and I am known as the God-shaking Sword in the martial arts world. The two beside me are my sworn brothers, Li Yun, the 'Liaoyuan Spear', and Ye Zixun, the 'Thunderbolt'. I wonder if you have heard of them, young lady?"

After these words were spoken, Su Tan'er and others who were not familiar with the martial arts world were somewhat surprised at Zuo Yu's title of 'Shocking God Sword'.

But Miss Lu's expression became strange.

"So it's you..."

"Yes, it is at——"

"... the 'Blood Prince' Zuo Yu who has recently gained fame in the martial arts world."

The smug smile on Zuo Yu's face froze instantly, and she rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "Don't talk nonsense, young lady. I don't know who the Blood Prince is!"

"hey-hey!"

Ye Zixun next to him chuckled and poked Zuo Yu in the waist with his elbow.

"Just admit it. The name of Blood Prince is much more famous than your Shocking God Sword!"

“…”

Looking at the two people playing and joking at the door, Miss Lu frowned and said in a deep voice: "I heard that you three brothers went all the way south and destroyed a total of 18 mountain strongholds and killed dozens of bandits who defected to Fang La... Is this true?"

Zuo Yu's face straightened and he said, "Of course!"

Miss Lu fell silent, and suddenly asked, "Are you the court's lackeys?"

Hearing Miss Lu's words, Zuo Yu and Ye Zixun looked at each other and smiled.

"With all the treacherous officials and incompetent rulers in the court, do you think they are worthy of our brothers' service?"

Zuo Yu smiled and shook his head, as if he had heard something extremely funny.

Li Yun, who was standing next to him, moved his spear to his side and said in a cold voice, "Although Fang La is a local tyrant, his subordinates are of mixed quality. After breaking into the city, he allowed his soldiers to burn, kill and loot. We are targeting Fang La's army for the innocent people who died tragically at their hands, not for the court."

After hearing Li Yun's explanation, Miss Lu nodded slightly, and the hostility in her eyes faded a little.

Su Tan'er frowned slightly and stared at Zuo Yu who was in the lead.

For some reason, she seemed to be able to see a shadow of her husband Ning Yi in this person...

At this moment, Zuo Yu suddenly took a step forward and stepped into the yard, and Li Yun and Ye Zixun beside him also walked into the yard.

"…What do you want to do?"

Miss Lu stood in front of Guardian Geng, holding two swords in her hands, looking at the three people with a stern expression.

Zuo Yu smiled and looked past Miss Lu to Su Tan'er behind her.

"Miss Su!" Zuo Yu cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Although we didn't mean to hear your conversation, I did hear it. If I'm not mistaken, are you planning to sneak into Hangzhou with the caravan?"

"What's it got to do with you!"

Miss Lu replied coldly.

Su Tan'er called her softly, then looked at Zuo Yu seriously and said, "So what?"

Zuo Yu smiled and said, "What a coincidence. We also have the same idea. Miss Su... can you help me?"

Su Tan'er frowned slightly and asked softly, "Master Zuo, I am going to Hangzhou for my husband who is trapped in the city. I wonder what you three want to do?"

"Assassinate Fang La."

Zuo Yu said lightly.

Perhaps it was because Zuo Yu said it too lightly and acted too relaxed, Su Tan'er was slightly startled when she heard it, and then a complex emotion arose in her heart, she couldn't tell whether it was shock or absurdity.

"You...want to assassinate Fang La?"

Juan'er's eyes widened, and she expressed Su Tan'er's inner doubts with some difficulty: "Just the three of you?"

Zuo Yu smiled slightly and turned to look at Miss Lu: "Isn't that enough?"

Miss Lu frowned, recalling the fight with Li Yun just now.

The powerful blows made her palms numb and her arms sore.

This kind of spearmanship that perfectly combines skill and strength is something she has never seen before in her life. Not to mention her deceased master, even the world's number one grandmaster, 'Iron Arm' Zhou Tong, is probably no better than this!

After a moment of hesitation, Miss Lu pointed her knife at Li Yun and said in a deep voice, "If the three of you brothers can all have the strength of this man, and then find a suitable place and time in Hangzhou City to assassinate him together, you should have a 90% chance of success."

...Ninety percent?!

Hearing Miss Lu's words, Guardian Geng and Su Tan'er were both a little surprised.

Zuo Yuze was still a little dissatisfied, and shook his head and said, "I think it's 100%."

Miss Lu did not comment, but frowned and asked, "When did masters like you appear in the world?"

Zuo Yu smiled and said, "There are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers in China, and there are countless hidden masters. How can you count them all, young lady?"

After saying that, Zuo Yu turned to look at Su Tan'er: "Miss Su, what do you think?"

Su Tan'er looked at him deeply and nodded, "Okay, I can take you to sneak into Hangzhou, but you can't do anything reckless, at least you can't implicate me and my husband, otherwise, even if I die here, I will not take you into Hangzhou."

Zuo Yu smiled and said, "Don't worry, young lady. I will lie in wait for a while and wait until you and your husband leave Hangzhou before I take action against Fang La."

Su Tan'er nodded solemnly: "Then it's a deal."

Zuo Yu smiled and said, "It's a deal!"

…

…

Su Tan'er is indeed a heroine who can take charge of the Su family. She is decisive and efficient in doing things, and is as good as men in strategizing.

Within a few days, Su Tan'er remotely controlled Juan'er to place the order, and in the name of Huzhou Liu's Cloth Shop, she collected a batch of high-quality cloth in the city, formed a fleet, and headed for Hangzhou.

Before setting off, Su Tan'er forcibly dyed the mounts of Zuo Yu and the other two brown because they were too eye-catching.

The prince charming, who was dressed in white gold and extremely handsome, turned into an ordinary peasant.

"I'm so sorry for wronging you!"

On the official road to Hangzhou, Zuo Yu rode on horseback, patting the brown horse's head in front of him and expressing his emotion.
