Chapter 173 Escape
"Run!" Su Qianqian grabbed Qin Yuzhuo, who was still staring at the man in black, and shouted in a low voice, then jumped off the carriage and ran towards the city gate.
"Three thousand taels!" Prince Ping's subordinates tried their best to stop the men in black and shouted, "We have finally caught him alive, we can't let him be killed!"
Most of these men in black were injured at this time, and Prince Ping and his subordinates were brave and courageous, so they were unable to kill their companions in a short time.
He found Su Qianqian and Qin Yuzhuo running towards the city gate, with a strange-looking dog following behind them. He was so angry that he gnashed his teeth.
A little scholar and a little girl are so difficult to deal with. I don’t know why these two people from Daliang are trying to protect them with their lives. Is it really for those thousands of taels of silver?
Su Qianqian could not be allowed to escape, so the leading man in black blew another whistle and sent three of them to continue rushing towards the fallen person, while the rest went to chase Su Qianqian.
Su Qianqian rolled up her robe and tucked it around her waist, then started running. A group of people were coming in this direction from the opposite road, and Su Qianqian recognized that the person in front was Qin Hanzhang.
Hope ignited in her heart, she gritted her teeth, didn't look behind, and just ran desperately. There was no need to worry about Qin Yuzhuo, as she had better physical strength than her. However, they were all injured to some extent from the bumpy ride in the carriage, and they felt pain all over their bodies when they ran.
But at this time the men in black were about to catch up. Prince Ping gritted his teeth to stop them, but one of the men in black still found a gap and stabbed Su Qianqian with his long knife.
Qin Yuzhuo discovered this and wanted to stop it. But he couldn't stop it with his bare hands, so he had to rush over and try to protect Su Qianqian with his body, but he was blocked by a body...
Prince Ping used himself to block the long knife of the man in black, and at the same time his sword stabbed into the chest of the man in black.
For a moment, Prince Ping himself didn't understand what he was doing? Is it worth it for the sake of a great Qi people?
But at that moment he couldn't help but stand in front of Su Qianqian.
Blood flowed down Prince Ping's arm. He was glad that he was wearing a black robe, so the blood could not be seen on the robe.
But the other four men in black pounced on him again. They naturally saw Qin Hanzhang and just wanted to exchange their lives for Su Qianqian's completion of the mission.
Prince Ping used all his strength to block several blows, and just when he was about to stand behind Su Qianqian again and take the unstoppable blow...
"Ah...", a beast roared through the sky, and all the men in black stopped moving, their eyes blank.
Su Qianqian was surprised to find that she, Qin Yuzhuo, and Qin Hanzhang and his group who had rushed over were all able to move, even Prince Ping and his subordinates were able to move freely.
Only the men in black stood there at a loss as to what to do.
Qin Hanzhang's horse galloped forward, and he jumped down to catch the staggering Su Qianqian.
"Are you hurt?" Qin Hanzhang's voice was low and slightly trembling.
Su Qianqian shook her head and quickly signaled him to deal with those men in black.
Prince Ping and his subordinates were finally able to take a breath and sat down on the ground exhausted. However, the two of them couldn't help but look towards the peak: Such a little guy turned out to be a divine beast?
The men in black regained consciousness at this time, but had been controlled by Qin Hanzhang's guards. However, they then fell to the ground with determined eyes, black blood flowing from their mouths and noses.
They are all death warriors.
"This young master is of noble status, yet he actually sent 15 assassins to kill him. Young master, you should give him a little more reward."
Prince Ping's face became even paler, and he sat on the ground, leaning on his sword.
"Don't worry, envoy Daliang. Anything that can be solved with money is not a big deal."
Su Qianqian deliberately did not reveal his identity.
"You are also seriously injured. I have the best medicine here. Use it quickly. If anything happens to you, I can't afford it."
Su Qianqian took out a bottle of hemostatic medicine from her body, walked over and squatted, opened it and was about to sprinkle it on Prince Ping's wound.
"I'll do it." Qin Hanzhang suddenly reached out from behind and took the medicine.
"I dare not trouble you, my Lord."
Prince Ping smiled indifferently, took the medicine bottle, capped it, put it in his arms, stood up from the ground under the eager gaze of his subordinates, and dusted off his dusty robe.
"Thank you, Master Su. Meng Qi is waiting for the reward in the Honglu Temple. Master, please make sure we are treated clearly and don't treat us unfairly for serving you."
Pingjun Wang Chao Qin Hanzhang bowed, turned around, and rode away on horseback with his subordinates.
[He wouldn’t die on the road, he was seriously injured. 】Su Qianqian muttered to herself.
[No, it seems like he is willing to get hurt for you and will definitely insist on living. 】
The system's tone was relaxed at this time.
"The man was stabbed by Yuzhuo with a needle dipped in a paralyzing drug. He was stuffed with a cloth first. When he wakes up, he will not swallow the poison and commit suicide. Perhaps he can get some information from him."
Su Qianqian pointed at the man in black lying beside the carriage.
Qin Hanzhang nodded with a gloomy face, ordered his subordinates to do the work, but he pulled up Su Qianqian's hand.
"He's injured like this, and he still cares about others..."
Qin Hanzhang's eyes were filled with heartache.
"Third brother, look at me..." Qin Yuzhuo stretched out his hand as well. Although his injuries were not as serious as Su Qianqian's, they were also covered with scars. However, people who practice martial arts can tolerate more pain.
"You are used to being hurt. How can she compare to you? Get in the car and go back home."
Qin Hanzhang helped Su Qianqian get into the car and followed beside her on horseback.
The driver, who had saved his life, then remembered to check the horse, and found that there were tiny steel needles piercing the flesh under its hooves.
No wonder it ran away in panic at first, but when it calmed down it didn't dare to run anymore.
"There's something wrong with that melon too." Su Qianqian said.
A basket of melons are rolling over, it is impossible for all of them to escape, as long as one melon full of needles is stepped on, the goal will be achieved.
They changed horses and left a few guards to deal with the corpses, while the others took the captured living people and escorted the carriage back to Xijing with Qin Hanzhang.
"Tao Ren Su, Run Ren Su, do you want us to run away quickly?"
Su Qianqian came to her senses at this time, but it was too late.
"Ah? How did the Daliang people know that we would be assassinated? Could it be that they... that's not right, if that was the case, why would they try so hard to save us?
The wounds on their bodies were not fake. If they had any other intentions in performing a self-torture tactic, they could have just made a gesture and left. Why would they have to sacrifice the lives of 15 people? It is not easy to train these assassins. ”
Qin Yuzhuo is not stupid when he talks about this.
"It's definitely not them, but we are really ashamed of ourselves that they were able to receive such important news. It seems that the person who sent the peach kernel cake did mean to remind us."
Su Qianqian analyzed.
"Is it that cuckolded brother?" Qin Yuzhuo blurted out, then remembered that this was what the system said, and quickly blinked and looked at Su Qianqian.
"How do you know that the general was cuckolded?"
[It turns out that the concept of green hat existed at this time.] 】Su Qianqian said in her heart.
"Ah, that's what the fifth young lady from Xu Jinglue's house mentioned. It turns out that the third sister-in-law also knows about it."
Qin Yuzhuo quickly made up for it, frowned and asked:
"But who is it, why did they want to assassinate us, and why did Prince Ping chase after you, stop your horse, and risk his life to save you?"
