Chapter 246
Mrs. Cui's words reminded Cui Quan: King Chu was once the God of War. Even though King Chu has no military power now, he is still feared.
"Okay, I agree to your request."
Cui Quan shouted to the man in black and ordered Zeng Ming: "Do as they say, prepare carriages and horses, and a token to leave the city."
"Don't mess with these things." Mrs. Cui reminded Zeng Ming.
Seeing Cui Quan and Cui Yongzong looking at her, Mrs. Cui explained: "These assassins are desperadoes at first glance. If we mess with these things and anger them, Yuanniang will be in danger."
Cui Quan nodded slightly and thought her words made sense, so he told Zeng Ming: "Don't do anything, just give them what they want."
"Yes." Zeng Ming took the order and left.
Mrs. Cui reminded again: "Father, today's matter is related to the reputation of Duke Jingguo. It is not appropriate to leak the news. You see..."
Cui Quan looked over with an unkind look: "As an eldest aunt, you really care about Yuan Niang."
These words are full of doubt and sarcasm. If you don't answer well, you will be unable to move forward in the future.
Mrs. Cui lowered her eyebrows and said slowly: "I am from the Duke of Jingguo's palace, and I should consider everything I do for the sake of the Duke of Jingguo."
Cui Quan was very satisfied with Mrs. Cui's attitude. He said loudly: "Listen to me. Today's events are not allowed to be spread. Anyone who talks too much will be severely punished."
Everyone accepted the order: "Yes."
Mrs. Cui was satisfied, and in this way Cui Hengyue's reputation could be preserved.
Song Zhuoxing and others were also very satisfied with Cui Quan's decision.
Cui Hengyue's expression was indifferent, and it was hard to tell what she was thinking.
"Prepare."
After Song Zhuoxing reminded his companions in a low voice, he stepped forward and shouted to the archers in front of him: "Stay back."
The archer was at a loss and looked at Cui Quan for help.
Cui Quan immediately grimaced: "I have already prepared the carriage as you said, what else do you want to do?"
Song Zhuoxing: "Let them all step back. I am leaving the house now. After I leave the house, I want to see what I just said.
"If it were a moment later, I would kill your granddaughter."
Cui Quan's face darkened.
This guy is so cunning. Originally he wanted to use the excuse of preparing the carriage to delay, but now it seems he has no chance.
"Tell them to move faster."
Cui Quan asked the guards around him to convey the order, and shouted to the people in the yard: "You all retreat."
Everyone stepped back, still staring at the four men in black.
Cui Yongzong ordered the people around him: "Send the order and lock the doors of each room and courtyard. No one is allowed to leave the courtyard without my order."
The guards took the order and left.
Cui Quanze whispered to Liu Yang: "Go to the patrol camp immediately and ask Cui Minxing to transfer the nearby soldiers and let them out of the city.
"Also, arrange for people to leave the city and catch them as soon as they let Yuanniang go.
"Remember, you must leave one alive, do you understand?"
Liu Yang nodded heavily: "Understood."
Then he turned and left.
Cui Quan looked at the men in black holding Cui Hengyue hostage, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.
No one in this life can threaten him. Today, he will let these young people take a good look at what will happen to those who threaten him.
"Everyone, stay back and walk faster."
Song Zhuoxing suddenly quickened his pace, forcing the guards of Duke Jingguo's Mansion to also quicken their steps and retreat.
Cui Hengyue whispered: "The closest to Jinglan Garden is the side door on the east side. Turn right after exiting the courtyard."
Song Zhuoxing silently noted that after leaving Jinglan Garden, he turned onto the road on the right.
He shouted to Cui Quan: "Let them drive the carriage to the east side gate."
Cui Quan said nothing with a cold face.
Cui Yongzong glanced at his father, and then ordered the guards: "Ask Zeng Ming to drive the carriage and horses to the east side gate."
"Yes." The guard trotted away.
Cui Hengyue observed the surroundings calmly and whispered to Song Zhuoxing: "Go left at the fork in front of the road, go straight, and go right at the second intersection..."
With Cui Hengyue guiding them, Song Zhuoxing and others quickly arrived outside the east door.
"Go and check things." Song Zhuoxing ordered Qingbai.
So Qingbai walked to the carriage and inspected it carefully.
Cui Yongzong couldn't help but look at his wife: "You are so good at predicting things, you know they will check."
Mrs. Cui kept her eyes on Cui Hengyue and her tone remained indifferent: "Although they are desperadoes, they act very cautiously.
"Alang is so smart, it's impossible that he didn't notice it. I was just saying a few words."
Cui Yongzong did not answer and continued to stare at the men in black.
After checking the carriage, Qingbai checked the horses again, and finally took the four exit tokens from the guards, looked at them carefully, and then walked to Song Zhuoxing.
"Everything is fine."
After Song Zhuoxing heard this, he winked at Runzhu: "Get in the carriage."
Runzhu escorted Cui Hengyue onto the carriage, followed closely by Su Biwen.
"You go and ride a horse, and another horse will hold you." After Song Zhuoxing said to Qingbai, he jumped into the carriage.
Standing on the shaft of the carriage, Song Zhuoxing looked at Cui Quan: "Don't send anyone to follow us. After we leave the city, I will let your granddaughter go when we reach a safe place.
"If I find out that you sent someone to follow us, I will chop off your granddaughter's hands and feet."
Cui Quan had a cold face and gritted his teeth and said: "If my granddaughter loses even one hair, I will cut them into pieces with a thousand knives."
"Oh--"
Song Zhuoxing sneered: "Dong Jingguo, whether your granddaughter will end well or not depends entirely on you."
After saying this, he got into the carriage and told Runzhu: "Go and catch the carriage."
So Runzhu sat on the carriage shaft, picked up the whip, and waved his hand:
"drive--"
The carriage galloped away, followed by Qingbai's horse.
"My lord, I'll go after him." Bai Qi walked out of the door after treating his wounds and said to the carriage that was driving away.
This is the first time he has failed, and he is not willing to accept it. He must catch those men in black and cut them into pieces.
Mrs. Cui shouted: "You can't chase me. If you anger those crazy people and hurt Yuan Niang, I will only ask you."
"..."
Bai Qi did not dare to refute and called out in a low voice: "Master Guo——"
Cui Quan turned around and walked in: "Send someone to the palace and tell me that I am not feeling well today and will not attend the court meeting."
...
In the fast-moving carriage, Su Biwen looked at Song Zhuoxing: "How is it? Is anyone following us?"
Song Zhuoxing stared outside through the car window: "At present, no one is following us."
"That's good." Su Biwen breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as his body relaxed, the wounds on his body felt particularly painful. He couldn't help but let out a low cry: "Hiss--"
Cui Hengyue glanced at him, then raised her hands, took out a medicine bottle from her arms, and threw it over: "This is the medicine Zhen Jiu gave me, take one to relieve the pain.
"Eating three pills will restore your strength for a quarter of an hour."
Su Biwen picked up the medicine bottle and looked at Cui Hengyue's hand: "Let me help you untie the rope. The injury on your neck also needs to be treated."
After saying that, he put down the medicine bottle and leaned over to help Cui Hengyue untie the rope from his hand.
