“Although they are from the Great Zhou, they are disloyal. For the throne, they are willing to harm loyal officials and even you! They are more despicable than soldiers from enemy countries! It is only right to fight them with our weapons!” Ye Qingxue said firmly.
Yun Zhuo's eyelashes trembled, as if she had instantly come to her senses and felt an overwhelming sense of self-loathing.
We've come this far, bloodshed is inevitable.
Sometimes, those who are of the same kind are not the same kind!
"Let's move out." Yun Zhuo's voice was hoarse, filled with layers of murderous intent. As soon as he finished speaking, he had already walked away from Ye Qingxue.
Ye Qingxue immediately followed: "While the people on the other side are fighting, let's hurry up and find that little palace maid!"
Yun Zhuo hummed in agreement and moved with lightning speed, as if he couldn't wait to capture the little palace maid in the next instant!
The four men, including Zhuang Xin, followed closely behind them, not daring to fall behind even an inch.
However, given the vastness of the mountain stream and the immense difficulty they faced in finding a mere palace maid amidst it all, it was incredibly challenging!
They quickly came up with a plan: to find a suitable hiding place. With two wolves leading the way, their journey was not difficult.
However, after the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, they had gained nothing. Ye Qingxue, however, keenly sensed a change in the air and suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Yun Zhuo, who was beside him, made the same gesture.
Zhuang Xin and the others behind him stopped immediately.
Ye Qingxue said, "This is bad. We've been tracked by Shen Jiefeng's men. He must have discovered that you're no longer in the bamboo grove across the way."
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, like a bowstring stretched to its limit.
Ye Qingxue shoved Yun Zhuo, "Take your people and run!"
Under the cover of night, Yun Zhuo almost stumbled, but Zhuang Xin and the others quickly protected him and separated him from Ye Qingxue.
Bai Qi, who was walking with Hui Qi, quickly ran back to Ye Qingxue's side. Ye Qingxue said, "You guys keep going forward. I'll meet up with you in a quarter of an hour at most!"
She had her back to Yun Zhuo at this moment and could not see Yun Zhuo's movements, but she could hear that Yun Zhuo was not moving.
Ye Qingxue said solemnly, "If we stay here, we'll all die together. With Bai Qi guarding me, he can help me escape!"
Yun Zhuo took a deep breath: "Okay, see you in a quarter of an hour!"
Grey Seven continued to lead the way, while Zhuang Xin and the remaining three guards protected Yun Zhuo as they continued forward!
No sooner had they left than a dozen guards from the Palace Guard rushed up from behind and to the sides, wielding swords that gleamed menacingly.
Ye Qingxue's lips curled into a cold smile as she watched them form a circle and slowly approach, trapping her and Bai Qi in the middle.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Qingxue was already within range of their swords and knives. She gripped the whip at her waist with one hand, ready to draw it at any moment.
The guards were also constantly on guard against the long whip at her waist.
"Take this!" Ye Qingxue shouted coldly, making a move to draw the whip, but instead she raised her left hand and scattered a handful of powder, creating a "mist" around her!
They took care of all the guards!
They were so focused on guarding against her whip that they never expected her to use this move. They inadvertently inhaled the powder and tried to rush forward with their swords, but their bodies went limp and they fell to the ground!
Ye Qingxue stopped and quickly led Bai Qi in the direction Yun Zhuo had left.
She got this poison from the acacia tree, just in case, and now she's using it.
After the guards collapsed, they did not immediately lose consciousness. They could only watch as she fled with a wolf and disappeared in the blink of an eye, which infuriated them greatly!
"My lord, that figure looks very familiar!" Shen Jiefeng, who was not far away, heard the person next to him say this as he watched this scene.
"Like the eldest daughter of the Ye family, my fiancée, is that right?" Shen Jiefeng asked, his voice extremely cold.
The man nodded with difficulty.
Shen Jiefeng said coldly, "Catch her later. I want to see if this person is really Ye Qingxue. How dare she harbor the deposed crown prince!"
If that person was Ye Qingxue, then she really had a lot of nerve; it was quite unexpected for him!
A cold, bloodthirsty glint flashed in Shen Jiefeng's eyes.
Meanwhile, Ye Qingxue had caught up with Yun Zhuo and the others as quickly as possible. They had agreed to meet in a quarter of an hour, but Yun Zhuo hadn't gone far. When he saw her catching up, he immediately turned around to greet her.
Ye Qingxue said urgently, "I've put out some poison, and it's knocked them all out. Let's go! There are definitely more people behind us!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Zhuang Xin said, "It seems there are people ahead!"
Yun Zhuo and Ye Qingxue immediately looked over and saw a petite figure trying to dodge. Everyone held their breath, afraid of disturbing the figure.
The other party was alone and was trying to hide in the shadows of the trees. Even from a distance, Ye Qingxue could sense the other party's fear.
Could it be... that this person is the little palace maid who served Consort Li? Are they really going to find her?
