Fortunately, Que'er was grabbed by Nanny Deng in time and escaped.
Aunt Deng was so angry that she cursed: "Don't let me catch these damn bastards, or I will kill them!"
Li Qingluo: "Que'er, are you injured?"
Que'er said with lingering fear: "Miss, I am fine. Let's hurry up and leave all this aside. Drive——"
The carriage was running so fast that it was about to fly, splashing muddy snow and sand all over the ground.
Li Qingluo and her group's carriage quickly fled back to the camp.
There were only six carriages that escaped back with Li Qingluo and the others!
Among them were Liu Qingzhu and his servant who climbed onto the carriage of the Cui sisters.
After they got off the carriage one after another, their faces were unhappy, but since it was a matter of life and death, the Cui sisters did not drive her out of the carriage at that time, which was considered to be kind-hearted.
As for the rest, no one knows where they fell, let alone whether they have been caught.
There was no time to care about so many things at this moment. There was a tall and large wooden thorn gate at the entrance of the horse farm. As long as it was pushed up to block the entrance, these rebels could be temporarily stopped.
Li Qingluo brought Que'er and Nanny Deng to the wooden gate. The three of them, master and servant, tried to push it. Fortunately, there were rollers underneath, so it was not too heavy.
As soon as they exerted force, all the other women, servants and even slaves followed them.
Everyone put in their best efforts, gritted their teeth, and worked together to quickly push the gate up.
Nanny Deng ordered several servants to lower the iron chain so that it could not be easily pushed from the outside.
However, it is still not enough.
Li Qingluo looked at the haystack and firewood beside him.
"Burn a wall of fire, quick!"
At this time, no one dared to doubt her anymore, but was thankful that there was someone who could take charge of the situation.
With everyone adding fuel, the flames grew higher, and soon a wall of fire started burning not far behind the gate.
If they dared to jump on the horses, they would definitely jump onto this wall of fire first.
Therefore, it can at least hold out for half an hour.
As long as we can delay the time, reinforcements will definitely come from Prince Su's side.
After Li Qingluo felt so confident, she asked them to continue adding firewood, and she turned around to look for weapons that could be used. Fortunately, there were some old tents that had not been dismantled, and she could still find something inside.
When she went out riding today, she really didn't expect such a situation to happen, otherwise she would definitely bring a bow and arrow.
Fortunately, she still had a dagger and a hidden arrow on her.
Li Qingluo found another sword behind an old couch. She took it out and took a look, and found that it was rusty.
But it’s better to have it than not to have it.
When she came out of the tent with a sword in her hand, she scared the other girls.
"You, what are you going to do?"
"You grew up in the countryside. Even if you're the daughter of a general, you can't possibly be good at wielding a sword, right?"
"Yes, yes, don't try to be so brave now. Just keep thinking of a solution. Where should we hide?"
"Those rebels are about to arrive. When the firewood is burned out, are we just going to be arrested?"
Liu Qingzhu shouted, "No! Your Majesty, Your Majesty will definitely come to save us!"
Cui Jiuniang sneered, "Waiting for your prince? Even His Royal Highness Prince Su couldn't stop these traitors, and there's no news of Princess Qinyu. Do you think there's any prince who can save you today?"
Liu Qingzhu's face turned pale as she tried to refute: "No, my family..."
Li Qingluo: "This place is surrounded by mountains on three sides. Where can we run to? This is our stronghold. I advise everyone to prepare to fight to the death and protect yourselves."
The women were so frightened that their faces turned pale.
Cui Jiuniang and Cui Shiyiniang had the same expression.
Some people even cried out loud.
However, Nanping, Cui Jiuniang and the others quickly accepted the current situation and hurriedly followed Li Qingluo to find weapons.
However, before anyone could find anything, the sound of horse hooves was heard outside.
In an instant, they all hid in the old tent again.
"Wow! These girls are so clever! They can even build fire walls and open gates to stop us!"
"Hahaha... stop us? Ladies, you'd better come out and surrender quickly. Let us catch you. How long can you stop us? We've already caught all the other girls. No one escaped, even those who went up the mountain or down the river."
"If anyone disobeys, they will be killed—"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
The old tent was filled with suppressed and panicked cries.
But outside, they were still shouting, "Ladies, if you don't listen to me, when the firewood is burned out, we'll go in and you won't have any good results! Do you hear me?!"
"Why don't you get out of here quickly——"
Some people actually wanted to go out, but were stopped by Li Qingluo.
"Do you want to die?"
After Li Qingluo pushed the man away, he opened a gap in the old tent and looked outside.
Outside the towering wall of fire, those masked men in black riding on tall horses kept spinning in place, looking like they were almost out of patience.
If only I had a bow and arrow at this time.
Just as Li Qingluo was thinking about this, a bow and arrow suddenly stretched out from out of thin air in front of her!
Nan Ping pointed at Liu Qingzhu and said, "Sister Luo'er, she just found it under a bed, along with three arrows, and she actually wanted to hide it from you!"
Liu Qingzhu said confidently, "I, I also wanted to keep it for self-defense, why did she snatch it away?"
Nan Ping sneered: "Do you know how to use it? Although Madam Zhu grew up in the general's mansion, I'm afraid she has never even touched a bow and arrow once!"
