Shu Blossoms

Chapter 396 Miao'er's Death
A Wan and Miao Er looked at each other, "Could it be..."

When they were guessing, someone from outside ran in in a panic and passed them, but they didn't dare to go straight into the house and shouted outside the door: "My lord, there are troops outside besieging the villa!"

Awan and Miao'er were delighted, when they heard the door being opened, Awan pulled Miao'er, Miao'er hurriedly lowered his head to hide the joy in his eyes, Awan showed a shocked expression at the right time and said in a panic: "Ah Father, what's the matter?"

Zhang Ru took a scrutiny look at them, ignored the interrogation, and led them away directly.

Seeing them disappear, Miao'er grabbed A Wan and said in a low voice: "It must be Princess Danyang who rushed in, we have to take this opportunity to leave here quickly, we won't be able to run away when he remembers."

Zhang Ruo came outside and watched the guards of the villa resist desperately. Although he didn't see defeat for a while, he had an ominous premonition.

These soldiers charged bravely and cooperated tacitly. At first glance, they were not ordinary troops, even the city defense army in Jiankang City could not compare.

And he still has a lot of them on his own side. These guards in the villa are all newly recruited Jianghu people in the past two years. They are skilled but don't know how to cooperate.

"Send someone to rush out to see who is coming outside?" Zhang Ruo pondered for a while. At this moment, he already had a bad premonition in his heart, but he still had a little luck in his heart.

The people around him whispered: "I have already sent someone to check, it is Princess Danyang and Xiao Yucheng."

"It really is them!" Zhang Ru's face darkened but he wasn't surprised at all. He immediately made a decision, "Take our own people and leave, and let these Jianghu people fight for us to leave time."

He turned around and walked into the villa, suddenly remembered Awan, and said to his confidants: "Li Shu, you go and bring Awan, we meet in the secret passage."

Li Shu was puzzled, "My lord, we may not necessarily lose! Xiao Yucheng can't transfer troops without an edict. He is transferring troops without authorization. He must not dare to bring too many people. Why not fight hard!"

Zhang Ru reprimanded in a cold voice, "What are you fighting for? The villa is officially in the hands of Jia Jia, and the reason why I recruited Jianghu Rangers at the beginning was to distribute our own people in each branch, because the Jianghu Rangers They don’t know anything, and even if they are caught, nothing will happen, let alone us.”

"So, as long as my people and I don't get caught, the loss is just a sub-helm. Not only can they not catch the old man, but the old man will let them go around."

Zhang Ruo explained to him as he walked quickly, Li Shu showed a relaxed smile on his face, and he clasped his fists as he was about to leave, but was grabbed by Zhang Ruo, "In any case, we must catch Princess Zhaoyang, she is in our hands, Princess Danyang and Xiao Yucheng will be wary."

Li Shu nodded, and quickly ran to the backyard, but A Wan and Miao Er were nowhere to be seen at the place before he arrived.

He grabbed a few servants and ordered them to find Awan, and he went elsewhere to look for it himself.

A Wan and Miao Er originally wanted to run out secretly, but they didn't know the way, and they couldn't find the way out after stumbled for a long time. When they were in a hurry, they saw someone walking towards this side, looking around all the way as if they were looking for someone.

They reacted immediately, and Zhang Ru sent someone to arrest them.

In a panic, Miao Er saw a rather weird rockery behind them, and before she had time to think about it, she took Awan and hid there. The weeds are also relatively strong, and people squat down and hide inside, and it is difficult to find them if they do not search carefully.

She stuffed A Wan in, and then covered it up for her. A Wan sensed her intention and lowered her voice, "Miao Er, what are you doing?"

"Princess, I'm sorry, I can't leave brother anymore! Say sorry to Princess Danyang for me!"

She looked back and ran out with a smile, and Ah Wan heard someone shouting 'stop', followed by the sound of chasing.

Awan bit her lip and wet her eyes, not daring to cry, until the place was completely silent, only a little bit of fighting and painful cries could be heard in the distance.

She felt that her feet were a little numb, and wanted to get up and move her feet, but suddenly heard footsteps approaching, she was so frightened that she held her breath and dared not move any more.

The sound of footsteps getting closer was a bit chaotic, and it sounded like there should be quite a few people.

They stopped on the other side of the rockery, and Ah Wan trembled a little. She was afraid that these people were here to arrest her. If so many people searched here together, she would have nowhere to escape.

But after a long time those people didn't come over, instead there was no movement, and after a few moments, Ah Wan felt that the mountain behind her was trembling, accompanied by a dull rubbing sound.

Then she heard a shocking voice, but it was a voice she was familiar with.

"Has Li Shu not come yet?" This was Zhang Ru's voice, and then someone whispered back: "Master, Li Shu has not come."

Zhang Ru seemed to hesitate for a moment before making a decision, "It seems that the girl has escaped again, but it is not easy to escape from here. Let's go first, and Li Shu will come after me after I finish my work!"

Then there was another dull rubbing sound, and Ah Wan could no longer hear Zhang Ru's voice.

At this time, Ah Wan also understood that there was a secret passage under the rockery.

As soon as the screen changed, Miao Er led the searchers to run wildly all the way, and then ran back to the stone prison.

Dao Sheng was still sitting there cross-legged, and looked up at her ignorantly when he heard the voice.

Miao'er walked over with a smile, and said softly: "Ping'er, sister is back, sister said she would never leave you again!"

She took Daosheng's hand, and Daosheng followed quietly without struggling.

But before they reached the door, they were already blocked by people who came.

They made a way out, Li Shu walked in, Miao Er blocked Dao Sheng behind, and looked at her without fear.

"Where is Princess Zhaoyang?" Li Shu asked sullenly, Miao'er's life is not important, what they want is Princess Zhaoyang.

"I don't know. She left by herself. I'll come back to look for brother."

Miao'er said stubbornly, poking her neck.

"Without you, where would she be, a weak woman with no strength to restrain a chicken?"

Li Shu didn't believe it at all.

"It's her weak woman who makes you play around, how dare you look down on her?" Miao Er sneered.

"Is it only the kid behind you who can make you speak!" Li Shu was not angered by Miao'er's ridicule, but instead walked towards their sister and brother step by step, he wanted to catch Dao Sheng and force Miao'er to submit.

Miao'er pushed Daosheng back, causing him to stagger back and forth. She pulled out the jade hairpin from her head, fiddled with the jade stone to take it off, revealing the slender spiked dagger inside, and then took the initiative to meet him.

This is the means Zheng Wei gave her to save her life.

But Miao Er is still a young learner, and she is not Li Shu's opponent, so she was soon restrained.

Li Shu waved his hand lightly, and someone walked towards Daosheng, and Miao Er anxiously shouted, "Don't touch him!"

Then he struggled out with his arm twisted off, grabbed the hairpin dagger with his left hand and inserted it into his chest, looked at Li Shu with blood spitting out his mouth, and said calmly: "It's a pity that we don't have a sword, we can't take you away together!"
