Chapter 414 No Way Out
It is definitely not possible to force their way in. If they are outnumbered, they will just be hitting their eggs against rocks. There is no need to take such a risk.
What's more.
Xian'an City is a metropolis with such a large area that as long as they hide well, the enemy may not be able to find them all at once. They just need to wait for rescue.
"Let's wait in the city first." Zhan Beiheng also thought so. The Black Iron Cavalry should be here soon, but it would be a bit troublesome for them to go to Xian'an City.
After all, Yingze City was also conquered by the Huangfu family.
"Eat breakfast and don't worry too much. Everything will work out when the time comes." Nan Jiao had a bright and cheerful smile on her face. Worrying wouldn't solve the problem anyway.
Jinzhi and Baihu were infected by her smile.
The sect leader is always so optimistic and never panics when encountering anything. Anyway, they are together at this moment, and there will always be a way to leave.
After breakfast.
Nan Jiao and Zhan Beiheng planned to go out and see what the situation was, and see if there was any good way to leave.
Someone saw their appearance yesterday.
At this time, all of them had their appearance changed and had a new face, even Yoyo Baoer had a new face.
"Look around the yard to see if there are any hiding places. If guards come to search, leave immediately. Remember to leave separately and leave a mark."
Nan Jiao did not forget to remind him before she went out.
It looks like the Huangfu family will search the entire city today, and they will probably find this place.
"Yes." Baihu and Jinzhi said firmly.
Nan Jiao felt reassured about them, so she left with Zhan Beiheng. Both of them were wearing clothes that were not ordinary, but not too luxurious either.
On to the street.
There were people everywhere, the people were talking, the guards were coming and going, everyone was looking, and every shop was searched.
As they walked, they arrived at the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.
I saw that a white cloth had been hung at the gate of the mansion, and people kept entering the mansion. There were several rows of guards with weapons at the gate.
"Let's go." Nan Jiao curled her lips slightly. This was Huangfu Xiong's own fault. If he had just been content to be the Marquis of Zhenbei, he would never have ended up like this.
Zhan Beiheng held her hand, and just as they were about to leave, they saw a middle-aged man in a military uniform coming out.
He knows.
It was Qi Yi. They had once fought together on the battlefield against the State of Wei.
I didn't expect that he would choose to rebel with the Huangfu family.
At that time he admired him and thought he was talented and would be a good general.
"Know him?" Nan Jiao sensed his mood change.
"His name is Qi Yi, and he is a general of the northern military camp." Zhan Beiheng said in a calm voice.
Nan Jiao looked at the other person. He was about forty years old, with a dignified appearance. He had the majesty of a leader, and was followed by ten soldiers.
"Can we start with him?"
"You can try, but it looks like it's going to be difficult to get close to him." There was an unshakable coldness in Zhan Beiheng's dark eyes, and his gaze was as sharp as a knife.
Nan Jiao looked sad, "Then let's start with his family. His family should be in Xian'an City."
Zhan Beiheng turned to look at her and said, "Let's go to Qi's house."
Nan Jiao nodded.
Because the two of them had disguised themselves before and had seen a lot of things, they were calm and composed at this moment. They didn't feel nervous at all and walked casually on the street.
When they encountered the guards for inspection, they were very cooperative.
The two quickly found the Qi family.
There were guards all outside the Qi family's house, and the security was very strict. It seemed that something happened in the Marquis' Mansion, and Qi Yi was afraid that his family would be in trouble, so he sent soldiers to guard it.
"Let's try it at night." Nan Jiao's lips curled up. Although the place is heavily guarded, there is definitely a chance.
"Yeah." Zhan Beiheng took her away, as it was too conspicuous during the day.
On the way back, the two of them strolled leisurely and bought a lot of food, just like they were out for fun.
When they get near where they live.
Seeing the guards searching every house, the two of them had to stop immediately.
"Looks like we need to go for a walk and come back later." Nan Jiao said. She wasn't too worried about Yoyo Baoer because Jinzhi and the others knew what to do.
Maybe they have already dispersed.
“Ahem…”
Suddenly, a cough was heard behind them.
Nan Jiao turned around and saw Jinzhi standing there holding Youyou. The others were not there. It seemed that they had all dispersed, which was good.
Otherwise, two children together would definitely arouse suspicion.
Jinzhi did not walk towards them, but made a gesture and took Youyou away. They had just been checked by the guards.
Now is a good time to go out for a walk.
Yoyo told Baoer that they wanted to make drugs.
Nan Jiao didn't stop them when she saw them leaving. It was indeed not suitable for them all to stay together now, and it would be best for them to separate.
…
After nightfall.
Xian'an City is unusually quiet.
Because of a rain in the afternoon, the fire in the mountains outside the city was completely extinguished.
The lights in the Zhenbei Marquis's Mansion were bright.
Many people were burning paper in the mourning hall.
Huangfu Xin was wearing white mourning clothes. She walked out of the mourning hall and saw Huangfu Ming and Huangfu Yue walking in from outside.
"Daddy, big brother, haven't you found them yet?"
"No, and we don't know where they are hiding. They must have changed their appearance and dressed up." Huangfu Yue said coldly with a sinister look.
There are so many people in Xian'an City, including men and women, young and old, it is difficult to find them.
"As long as the city gates on both sides are guarded well, they can't get out and we will find them sooner or later." Huangfu Ming had a gloomy face. It would just take some time.
Huangfu Xin gritted her teeth secretly and said coldly: "I have a way that will definitely lead them out."
Huangfu Ming looked at her, "What can we do?"
"Catch some five-year-old children in the city and tie them up under the city wall. If they don't show up, we will kill them all one by one." There was a crazy light in Huangfu Xin's eyes.
"This..." Huangfu Ming frowned. Isn't this a bit too cruel? Moreover, they are taking the children of innocent people.
"Dad, Xin'er's suggestion is very good. We won't be able to rest in peace until we kill them. They are just a few children of the common people." Huangfu Yue agreed very much.
Huangfu Xin looked at Huangfu Ming and said ruthlessly: "We have no way out."
She was just too soft-hearted before.
Unexpectedly, those two bastards kept pretending to be good in front of her, and asked that bitch to take care of them, and finally let the three of them join forces.
Otherwise, my grandfather would definitely not have died.
She feels guilty!
Now, she no longer cares about anything else and only wants to kill Prince Jin and Princess Jin at all costs.
Huangfu Ming pursed his lips.
The Huangfu family wanted to rebel, but they had always been good to the people of Xian'an City. After all, they needed their support. If they did this now, the people would definitely curse them.
"Dad, this is the best way. It is said that the King of Jin loves his people and likes to fight for justice. The Princess of Jin likes to help the weak and support the strong. They will definitely come out."
Huangfu Xin's eyes were as sharp as a poisonous snake, and there was a cold sneer on the corner of his mouth.
If they don't come out.
She would kill those children a thousand times.
If they still don't come out, she will continue to kill the helpless civilians tomorrow to see how long they can endure.
