Seeing that he had been exposed, the man stopped pretending and glared at Su Yiting fiercely: "Kill me or torture me, it's up to you. I know nothing."
After saying that, he shut his mouth and didn't say another word.
"Fifth Brother, no need to ask anymore, I know who sent them." Su Ruojin's voice came from inside the carriage.
"Waaah!"
Before the man could react, a bloody gash appeared on his neck.
He fell to the ground, his eyes wide open.
Su Yiting took out a handkerchief to wipe his sword, then got into the carriage: "Little sister, are you alright?"
Su Ruojin shook her head: "Fifth Brother, I'm fine. Tell the carriage to go faster. I'm worried about Grandmother. These people must have been sent by Zhao Tingsong."
I had just arrived in Yunqi and the only person I had ever met was Zhao Tingsong. I was assassinated right after meeting him. What a coincidence!
As for why Zhao Tingsong wanted to kill him, it was most likely related to his grandmother.
Thinking of this, Su Ruojin's worry deepened.
As the carriage drove away, Zhao Tingsong emerged from behind a tree in the distance, his face ashen, and stumbled out of the woods.
He originally planned to get the jade pendant as soon as Su Ruojin was arrested or killed.
He never expected that the dozen or so guards sent to him by the Third Prince would be dealt with so easily.
Zhao Tingsong was relieved that he was far away and hadn't been discovered, but how was he going to explain this to the Third Prince?
Who exactly is this Su Ruojin, and why were her guards able to so easily wipe out the people sent by the Third Prince?
After running for a while, Zhao Tingsong stopped, panting heavily, and looked back at the direction where the carriage had disappeared, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
Su Ruojin, do you think you'll see those two old geezers once you get to the manor?
How naive!
The carriage stopped at the entrance of Yunquan Villa.
Su Ruojin stepped forward and knocked on the door. An elderly woman opened the door and looked at them warily.
“This old lady, I am Madam Zhao’s granddaughter. I want to see my grandmother,” Su Ruojin said.
Granny Cao looked Su Ruojin up and down and said with disdain in her eyes, "The old lady is unwell and will not receive guests."
After saying that, he was about to close the door.
Su Ruojin stepped forward and pushed the door open. Cao Mama was caught off guard and almost fell to the ground. She grabbed the door frame to steady herself.
"What do you want? How dare you trespass on our Zhao family's manor?"
Su Ruojin looked directly into Granny Cao's eyes and said, word by word, "I said, I, want, to, see, my, grandmother!"
When Granny Cao met Su Ruojin's eyes, she felt that her gaze was as sharp as an eagle's, piercing with a cold light, and she stammered instantly: "You, you just wait!"
Granny Cao staggered as she ran towards the villa.
Su Ruojin and Su Yiting ignored them and went straight inside.
The villa is filled with small bridges, flowing water, pavilions, and towers, and is teeming with all kinds of rare flowers and plants. It truly lives up to its reputation as the estate of the richest man in Yunqi.
Zhao Tingsong was right about one thing: this kind of environment is indeed suitable for patients to recuperate.
After running for a while, Granny Cao stopped and hid behind a rockery. She turned back to look at the group that had entered the courtyard, a strange smile creeping onto her lips: "Did you really think Yunquan Manor was so easy to get into?"
She gently patted a stone on the artificial hill.
The next second, Su Ruojin felt a blur before her eyes and found herself standing alone in a bamboo forest.
Fifth Brother and the guards have all disappeared.
Around her, on the lush green bamboo, there were strips of green bamboo shoots, each about two fingers thick, some of which were flicking their tongues as they crawled toward her.
not good!
This Yunquan Manor is actually equipped with a formation.
She underestimated the Zhao family's strength.
Su Ruojin took a few steps before realizing that this was the Bagua Illusion Array.
