In the rebirth, the abandoned wife of a noble family turned black

Chapter 289 Rebellion
Jiang Ruanxi seemed to understand the look in her eyes and explained helplessly, "What are you thinking about? I asked those people to protect us in case of any unexpected situation."

After all, there is no way that the Jiang family will let me go now.

Yu Shui scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Go quickly." Jiang Ruanxi didn't blame her.

Rainwater nodded.

After the rain went away, he didn't appear in front of Jiang Ruanxi for several days.

Jiang Ruanxi was a little worried about her, but since she couldn't go out, she didn't know what the situation was outside.

Five days later, it was just getting dark. In the past, when it was getting dark, there would be the sound of night watchmen beating, but today it was unusually quiet. The only sound was the barking of dogs outside.

Jiang Ruanxi felt very uneasy and had a bad feeling.

Her heart beat faster and faster, and she stood up and paced around the living room.

Because Wei Chang was demoted, the palace maids and eunuchs were all dismissed, and now she was left alone in the huge mansion. Although she was living a new life, it would be a lie to say that she was not afraid.

The sound of the burning charcoal fire in the house was particularly loud today.

Her eyelids were heavy, but she always felt uneasy and her heart was beating very fast. She always felt that something bad was going to happen.

It made her afraid to go to sleep.

Suddenly, flames shot up into the sky outside.

After a while, there was the sound of swords clashing.

Jiang Ruanxi's whole body trembled with fear, and she took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

Before she could calm down, the sound of swords and sabers outside seemed to have died down, but soon began to sound again, even more intense than before.

Jiang Ruanxi calmed down and her mind became much clearer after that.

The people outside should be coming for her, but who exactly wants to kill her?

Is it the Jiang family or someone else?
Also, the first group just now should have encountered the officers and soldiers sent by Emperor Qin to look after her.

But when she heard the second noise just now, she wondered who might have come to help her. Now she couldn't care about anything else.

She ran towards the room.

She seemed to have heard Wei Chang say that he had dug a tunnel inside the room that led to outside the city, and there was also a secret room.

Now, as long as she could get to the room, there would be a glimmer of hope of survival.

Jiang Ruanxi prayed that the people outside could hold out a little longer while walking quickly towards the room.

When she was walking through the long corridor, someone grabbed her wrist. Her heart jumped into her throat. She raised her hand and hit her wrist hard.

Just as her hand was about to touch that hand, a familiar voice came from behind her.

"Ma'am, I am."

Jiang Ruanxi turned her head and saw that his face was covered in blood, and even his body was covered in blood.

Jiang Ruanxi was surprised, "Yushui, what's wrong with you?"

Yu Shui pulled her hand and ran towards the study. "The Second Prince and the Jiang family have rebelled. There are soldiers everywhere outside, burning and killing people in the mansions of the great masters."

It turned out that the fire he saw outside just now was their masterpiece, Jiang Ruanxi immediately understood.

"There are a lot of their people outside our mansion. When I just brought people here, I saw them banging on the door, so we have to hide quickly. Our people can't hold out for long. I know there is a secret room in the study. Let's hide there." After Yu Shui briefly explained the situation outside, he pulled Jiang Ruanxi and quickly went to the study.

As they were talking, there seemed to be a fire not far away.

Jiang Ruanxi's heart trembled and her mind worked rapidly.

"It's too late. Let's go to my dormitory. There are secret rooms and secret passages there."

Most importantly, it is closer to the dormitory.

Although Yu Shui is skilled in martial arts, she is still a burden to bring along. Besides, it is impossible for her to defeat so many people alone.

Yu Shui was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned and walked towards the room.

Someone not far away seemed to have spotted them and came towards them with torches in hand, shouting, "Stop right there."

The rain was coming faster and faster.

But due to the injury, her steps were a little unsteady.

She pushed Jiang Ruanxi forward and said to her, "Madam, please leave quickly. I will hold them back."

Jiang Ruanxi stepped forward and supported her, "I won't leave. If you want to leave, let's go together."

Yu Shui broke free from her and said, "Go, I promised my master to protect you until he comes back."

Jiang Ruanxi was stunned, and suddenly seemed to understand something.

But seeing that Yu Shui had always been by her side, she had long regarded Yu Shui as her own sister. Now that she was in danger and was asked to leave Yu Shui behind and go alone, she couldn't do it.

I couldn't care about anything else and helped her up. "If you want to go, let's go together."

Yu Shui also knew that if they delayed any further, none of them would be able to escape.

She felt grateful that Jiang Ruanxi did not run away from her, and even more touched.

Suddenly, she pushed Jiang Ruanxi forward, and Jiang Ruanxi disappeared from her sight. Yu Shui squatted down slightly and moved the tree trunk beside her, and everything returned to normal.

After she ran a few steps, the person behind her caught up with her.

Seeing that only Yu Shui was there, he asked fiercely, "Where are the people?"

Yu Shui pretended not to know, "Who are you?"

"Catch her for me, and go find Jiang Ruanxi for me. If I can't find her before tomorrow, you'll be the ones to blame."

"Yes."

Jiang Ruanxi, who was pushed down, was about to speak, but when he heard a familiar voice from above, he suddenly fell silent.

It turned out that the person who had been chasing them was Jiang Minghuai.

But it's so strange.

In the Prince's Mansion now, apart from the people sent outside by the Emperor, she is the only one. Why does Jiang Minghuai, the general guarding the border, need to come to their mansion to capture her?

Even if she had doubts, Jiang Ruanxi didn't have time to think about it.

The place where she fell seemed to be a secret passage, and it was pitch black.

Now she could only run before they found her, otherwise if they found the entrance, she would have no chance of survival.
