C253 guesswork (1/2)

Hua Rong dismounted from her horse when she was five kilometers away.

She quietly ran back to her room. She didn't go through the main entrance, she was like an agile leopard cat, quietly jumping over the wall and entering the room. Standing at the door for a while, he didn't feel anything out of the ordinary. It was almost dawn. She was about to push open the door and enter when she suddenly felt a chill in her body. Two weapons and spears were coming at her from both sides.

Even though she was prepared, she was still surprised. Miao Liu and the other two really had someone behind them. Otherwise, why would they suddenly 'wake up' and send people to assassinate them before they left the city?

King Qin was right.

She drew her bow to resist and shouted, ”Someone come!”

However, the servants outside the door showed no signs of movement. They must have been killed long ago.

She did not dare to stay and kept retreating. However, the person who came seemed to have made up his mind to kill her. Seven or eight shadows came out from the dark, all covered by Black.

She repelled the attacks of the two as she panicked, but remained calm as she shouted, ”How dare a scoundrel act so arrogantly? I am the bestowed upon me by the empress dowager, are you waiting for me to rebel?”

One of them sneered, ”You better not be long-winded when death is at hand …”

The sound was like that of an old crow, shocking her. She was about to speak again, but was forced into a corner by the two sabers. She could only force herself to keep her mind, in order to protect herself.

Another slash came, and her heart went cold. She only wanted to think, if I really lose my life here today, I won't even be able to see my husband and son again.

His heart turned cold and he could even feel the blade graze against his skin. The oppressive feeling quickly disappeared as a long spear came at them and knocked them out. Then, a hand wrapped tightly around her waist.

Although it was dark, that figure didn't need to be identified. Naturally, he knew who it was. She was about to open her mouth to speak, but instead of saying anything, she stuck her body against his chest, turned around in an instant and brandished her bow. His long spear was pierced by thorns, and then two more fell.

Further ahead, there was a checkpoint that Miao Liu had specially set up. Hua Rong lowered her voice: ”About the card, what do we do?”

”I know, if it doesn't work, then I'll force my way in.”

However, it was still difficult to force his way through. Furthermore, the sky had already begun to brighten. As the two of them continued forward, the checkpoint in front of them suddenly released a crackling sound. A stink bomb exploded in the air and instantly, chaos broke out. Even a large section of the nearby wall was blown apart.

When the soldiers guarding the city saw this unforeseen event, they all rushed forward. The two of them took the opportunity to gallop past the city gates, but when the soldiers returned, they could only hear the sound of wind blowing. They even said to themselves strangely, ”Someone just went out?”

”I didn't see it.” Today's matter is weird. Everyone, be careful. ”

Hua Rong was sitting in front, with her head leaning on her familiar chest, her entire body was drenched in sweat. The wind blew past, and her heart was exceptionally cold, but her voice was choked with emotions: ”Peng Gao, why are you back?”

Yue Pengju hugged his wife happily. That night, he ran all the way home, afraid of alerting the enemy, not even daring to bring a guard along. Relying on his horse's pace, he came home alone, disguised as a horse.

”I'm afraid you're in danger. ”After the meeting yesterday, I took advantage of the night to rush back. I sent a signal outside, but you're nowhere to be seen. I'll wait for you for a while …”

At that time, he would be kidnapped by the King Qin and he would naturally no longer be seen.

She didn't want to bring up this matter, she could only laugh, ”Pengju, if you hadn't arrived today, I would have been in danger.”

”However, I have to thank King Qin. The stink cannon was definitely fired by him just now. If it wasn't for him, we wouldn't have been able to escape. ”

At this moment, she didn't want to talk about the King Qin anymore, and every time he did something, she would feel more guilty towards him. Yue Pengju didn't notice anything strange about his wife. He only held her tightly and asked: ”Feng Da, are you cold?”

She shrank into her husband's embrace, who immediately untied his coarse and thick robe and wrapped it around her. Swiftly riding on horseback, he galloped towards Jiangping.

In order to not attract attention, Yue Pengju returned to his residence first. He did his work normally, while Hua Rong stayed behind and was slightly delayed. Lv Yihao, Han Zhongliang, Zhang Jun and the others had a discussion with him, but did not know that he had made a night raid, so they rushed back.

After a while, the soldier reported, ”Mrs. Guo has arrived.”

Yue Pengju also pretended to be happy and immediately stood up and prepared to go out to welcome them. Hearing that Hua Rong had come over, Lv Yihao and the others all went to welcome him. Yue Pengju immediately said: ”My lord, there is no need to be like this, my wife is here to see you, I do not dare to ask of you.”

Lv Yihao said in a serious tone: ”Madam is righteous, if you take the risk yourself, lower official will welcome you.” Actually, all of them were confused, why did Hua Rong become the ”Mrs. Guo” just by going back?

Everyone welcomed Hua Rong and she was already seated in the hall.
