Chapter 475: Salvation
Wen Can hurriedly changed carriages, "Hurry up and catch up."
"Wait." Wen An, the long-servant, took out a box of beards and eyebrows. "You need to dress up, otherwise it will be easy to be ambushed. We often enter the Gu family's Zhongyi Building for the first time. The people under Prince Rong must have seen it."
Wen Can quickly picked out the best-looking beard and put it on his face. "Alright, hurry up and go, as fast as you can! Take the shortcut around the small road."
“Da da da…”
The sound of hurried horse hooves could be heard.
Asu looked up and saw a masked man with a distinguished demeanor galloping towards him on horseback, followed by a dozen murderous guards with swords.
Asu hurriedly asked the people below to restrain their breathing.
If they misunderstand that we are here to kill them, we may not have a chance of winning if we fight.
After passing Huguo Temple, Tang Tian rode forward and whispered to Song Mingen, "There was no ambush just now."
"Well, let's hurry up."
Song Mingen was extremely anxious, worried that Song Yu would be discovered.
I can't wait to be by her side to protect her!
With the Mu family's carriage as cover, Song Yu and his group had no obstruction.
However, the closer you get to the capital, the more vehicles and pedestrians there are on the road.
At each ambush point, there were officers and soldiers wearing patrol battalion uniforms checking the vehicles coming in and out.
Yunyan was not sure at first whether they were real patrol camp officers and soldiers, but when the carriage approached, she caught a glimpse of a familiar face.
Those are the guards in the front yard of Prince Rong’s mansion!
Fortunately, they saw that it was the Mu Mansion's carriage and that Madam Xu was very fierce, so they let it go.
Chen Chao was hiding eight miles south of Dujiahuazhuang. Two miles further south were Prince Rong's men who were disguised as patrol battalion officers and soldiers.
It can be said that he is in the dark, while Prince Rong's people are in the light.
Xiao Fei brought twenty guards to keep watch outside the flower manor. Chen Chao got the news immediately and made some arrangements.
When the Mu family's convoy arrived, Prince Rong's men looked at each other. Like Asu, they were not afraid of the Mu family and stepped forward to conduct a thorough investigation.
The result is nothing!
That's not right!
Prince Mu’s men have sent people to guard the flower farm, how could there be nothing there?
The old driver of the Mu family was so angry that his throat was smoking. "I told you to check it, why don't you get out of the way!"
"Feel sorry!"
When the old driver saw them make way, he quickly drove away.
When the Mu family members were out of sight, Prince Rong's men went into the woods, took off their patrol battalion uniforms to reveal their nightgowns, and quietly followed the Mu family convoy.
Tang Cong, who was the last one to leave, quickly noticed a scent in the woods not far behind him.
"Brother Feng, there's someone in the woods behind."
Zhang Feng didn't look back. He quickly approached the first truck and pretended to adjust the cover. He whispered to Song Yu, "There are people coming up from the woods on both sides behind us. They must be the people from the patrol camp."
Song Yu pondered for a moment, "Are we almost at the Flower Manor?"
"yes."
"Did Prince Mu go to the Du Mansion that day?"
"Yes, miss."
Hearing this, Song Yu was certain that Mu Jingxing must have sent someone to Huazhuang to keep an eye on Du Zhihuan.
The people lying in ambush nearby naturally got the news.
They didn't notice her along the way.
By now he should have realized that she might have asked the Mu family to pass the message into the city.
"Let everyone be alert. If a fight breaks out, you must find a way to escape back to the capital and move the box here."
Zhang Feng was worried that Song Yu would suffocate to death, so he left a small gap and threw a few dried vegetables in it.
Chen Chao frowned when he saw the Mu family's carriage coming, and then an expression of "as expected" appeared on his face.
He took out the glass telescope from his arms and carefully observed the appearance of the Mu family servant.
He didn't notice the appearance of the person in the portrait for a while. When he saw Zhang Feng with pockmarks on his face, Chen Chao turned the mirror barrel to magnify the pockmarks on Zhang Feng's face and observe them carefully.
He soon discovered the flaw: the skin under his earlobe was whiter than his cheeks. Chen Chao was sure that the pockmarks on his face were painted on.
Chen Chao retracted the telescope and gestured to the first wave of people below, "Intercept the Mu family's truck for me!"
A group of men in black rushed out from the woods on both sides with swords in hand and surrounded the Mu family. The men in black in the woods on both sides behind them also surrounded them!
"You... who are you?" Nanny Xu was suddenly frightened when she saw so many men in black with murderous eyes surrounding her, but she still pretended to be calm. "Get out of the way! No matter which bandits you are from, I urge you to give up your thoughts of robbing the Mu family, otherwise my young master will personally lead a team to wipe you out..."
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Before Aunt Xu could finish her words, the sound of swords and sabers was heard outside.
Yunyan was about to climb out of the carriage with a sword in hand.
A sharp sword flew in from the rear window, carrying murderous intent and heading straight for Yunyan's vest.
"Be careful!" Aunt Xu shouted in shock.
Yunyan lunged sideways at Madam Xu and pinned her down, "Get down there and don't move!"
Yunyan quickly climbed out of the carriage through the rear window with a sword in hand.
At this time, several men in black were lying on the ground.
Yunyan thought to herself that this was not good. Their manpower, including the Mu family members, was less than twenty people.
Facing more than forty men in black, they clearly had no advantage.
Yunyan only had time to look at the truck where Song Yu was hiding after she had knocked down seven or eight people.
On both sides of the truck, while Zhang Feng and Asi were fighting with the men in black with swords, several people flew down from the trees and the men in black raised their swords to cut open the cloth covering the truck.
The food in the truck was shaken and flew out.
"Ah! Bastards! You damn bunch! These are my master's ingredients!" The old driver was heartbroken, and with his bloodshot eyes he slashed at the three men in black.
Yunyan wiped the black-clad man in front of her with a knife and stepped forward to help.
Just when there were only more than ten men in black left, suddenly twenty or so men in black came from the front, back, left and right.
Zhang Feng, Asi, Yunyan and others were a little overwhelmed, and they were all injured.
Four servants of the Mu family were injured and fell down.
The old driver was quite skilled in martial arts and held on.
Even so, they could not stop the men in black from hacking up the two trucks.
Song Yu listened to the sounds outside and felt the truck shaking, as if it would fall apart at any moment.
what to do?
She's about to be found!
She would really be hacked to death at the bottom of the box, her flesh and blood chopped to pieces.
It might be even more miserable than dying in the previous life!
She doesn't want to die yet!
Woo…I want to cry.
Why is the enemy so powerful?
She really didn't want to die like this.
When Song Yu was feeling desperate, the sound of wooden boards splitting was heard, and the weight on his body was relieved.
Song Yu subconsciously held his breath and peeked at the sky outside through the crack.
The sound of swords and knives outside continued, and it seemed that it was about to get dark.
She felt even more desperate, her head felt dizzy, and she had difficulty breathing.
When he lost consciousness, a man in black, stabbed by a sword and spitting blood, lay on the wooden board, blocking the gap and the light. The narrow bottom of the box was instantly shrouded in darkness, and Song Yu completely lost consciousness.
"Brother Feng, you go first." Ah Si pulled away the man in black who was lying on the truck, "Hurry back and get some reinforcements. Let our prince bring some people. Being robbed is a small matter, but not giving face to our Mu family is a big deal!"
"No one can escape!" Chen Chao rode over, followed by a group of men in black holding bows and arrows.
Zhang Feng looked at the man wearing a black mask on horseback and felt for a moment that he looked familiar.
"Since I dare to rob the Mu family, I must not let the Mu family know! Come on, shoot them all with arrows, leaving no one alive!"
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
"Brother Feng!" Tang Cong slashed the sharp arrows shot at Zhang Feng with his sword. "We will cover you, you quickly escape. Have you forgotten what the young lady told you? Even if you die, you can't let them succeed!"
Zhang Feng glanced at the truck. If he left, he could divert the attention of the man in black.
"good."
Zhang Feng deflected the incoming arrow and fled towards the northeast.
"Quick! Shoot him before he gets away!"
While shouting, Chen Chao raised the crossbow in his hand and aimed at the fast-moving Zhang Feng.
At the same time, in the crumbling carriage, Madam Xu, who was lying on the bottom of the carriage with a deathly pale face, was filled with remorse!
I have really boarded Song Yu's pirate ship and will die here with her!
But it's too late to say anything now, she can't die here.
Her grandson hasn't been born yet.
She can't die! She has to pretend to be dead!
He looked up at the arrow shot at the carriage.
If you are ruthless, you will bleed if you pretend to be dead!
Nanny Xu reached out for the nearest arrow.
Bang!
A man in black was nailed to the carriage by Yunyan's sword
The carriage shook, forcing Madam Xu to hit her lower back against the small table, and the drawer under the table was knocked open.
Nanny Xu subconsciously looked over and caught a glimpse of what was inside.
Aunt Xu was overjoyed!
He quickly picked it up and climbed to the window.
With a loud bang, a golden peony bloomed beautifully in the air!
Chen Chao thought to himself that this was not good!
"Quick, fire attack!"
A group of men in black quickly changed to arrows with torches, but before they could fire.
“Whoosh!”
A sharp arrow came through the air and pierced Chen Chao's left shoulder.
Chen Chao looked at the person who came in horror.
The person who came was Song Mingen. Song Mingen raised his voice and shouted: "You are so bold! You are so lawless that you dare to rob people at the foot of the imperial city! When I encounter you, I have to intervene. Come on! Capture him alive!"
Tang Cong and others who were about to collapse suddenly became full of fighting spirit as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
Xiao Fei, who was guarding near the flower farm, was a little dazed when he saw the gorgeous golden peony in the sky in the distance.
Isn’t this the golden peony that can only be sent out as a signal flare by their Mu family?
Who is in danger?
"Oh! Not good!" Xiao Fei came back to his senses, "Leave two people to watch over them, and the rest of you, hurry up and follow me to rescue them!"
