Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 434
Chapter 434 Disrupt A Plan
‘”Why can’t I leave? I didn’t offend you,” Jiang Li said as he turned around and pretended to run away. He was very disdainful of his actions.
When the men behind saw this, they immediately chased after him and blocked Jiang Li’s path. They snatched the medicine chest from Jiang Li’s back and said, “Did you offend us? You still want to go! Catch him back!”
Someone immediately grabbed Jiang Li’s arm and pressed him back. Jiang Li’s expression became even colder. “Aren’t you afraid that the officials will catch you?”
“Government?” These people laughed loudly, “When will the government catch us? Let’s go, bring them back!”
Rong Ruo and Jiang Li exchanged glances, their eyes filled with a trace of unworries, and then they nodded to each other.
Jiang Li struggled hard and nimbly pushed away the two of them who had grabbed him. “I’ll leave myself!”
“It’s better this way. Don’t even think about escaping. Otherwise, we’ll break your legs! Let’s go back quickly.” The man with cheeks threatened. Seeing that Jiang Li was still obedient, he felt relieved and smiled uncontrollably.
Today’s harvest was great.
These people grabbed Jiang Li, and Rong Ruo automatically followed them forward. The corners of her mouth were filled with a happy smile, and she even praised the man with cheeks from time to time, causing him to laugh loudly.
The look in Rong Ruo’s eyes was a little more peculiar from before. If it weren’t for the fact that Rong Ruo could earn a lot of money, he would have wanted to feed such a lovely child by himself.
Therefore, there was a trace of pity in his eyes as he looked at Rong Ruo.
A group of people took Rong Ruo around for a while, but they didn’t have the intention to reach their destination. Rong Ruo’s mouth was flat and she said impatiently, “Grandpa, why haven’t we arrived yet? My feet hurt so much.”
“Is that so?” The man with cheeks looked at the people around him. Rong Ruoren was small. They took one step, but Rong Ruoren had to take two. Along the way, Rong Ruoren was trotting, and sweat had already oozed from her forehead.
Seeing that everyone was carrying gunny bags in their hands, only Jiang Li’s hands were empty. He immediately ordered Jiang Li to carry Rong Ruo.
Seeing this, the smile in Rong Ruo’s eyes became even more intense.
“Uncle, it’s really going to be hard on you. Carry me properly. I’m not heavy. You can rest assured that I won’t bend your back.”
Jiang Li frowned when he heard this. He wished he could punish Rong Ruo. This was Rong Ruo’s plan.
He snorted coldly. He wasn’t willing to carry it. He had suffered a lot from chasing Rong Ruo from Country of Xiyue to the movement. However, he had already promised Rong Ruo that he wouldn’t reveal his identity and that he would be watched by a man with cheeks. He couldn’t help but squat down and let Rong Ruo climb up.
Just as Rong Ruo climbed up, a smile appeared on the corner of her lips. She whispered in his ear, “Take care of me this time. I’ll give you some face next time. I told you to go back early. There’s no need to chase me. I’ve had enough fun, so I’ll naturally go back. Who knew you would be so stubborn?”
The corner of Jiang Li’s mouth twitched. However, the lesson he had learned from getting along with Rong Ruo along the way had also made him know that it was obviously impossible to reason with Rong Ruo. “We’ll talk about these things later. I’ll only listen to the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince wants you to go back, so you can only go back.”
Rong Ruo looked at the sky speechlessly. Being with such a stupid goose, he felt that it was very boring. He muttered to himself, “Anyway, if I don’t kidnap my mother, I won’t go back.”
The group quickly turned into a small alley. Jiang Li looked around and whispered, “What do you plan to do?”
Before reaching her destination, Rong Ruo did not intend to expose herself. “Let’s go and see how many people these people have abducted. Now, we can only save these people. Once we find their stronghold, we can save everyone.”
Seeing this, Jiang Li no longer spoke.
However, he hadn’t taken a few steps when he heard a burst of hurried footsteps coming from behind. These footsteps were a bit messy. Rong Ruo narrowed her eyes and looked back. She saw four or five people walking over not far away. The leader was an eight or nine year old man. The few people behind her were dressed like guards.
Seeing the situation in the alley, the man in the lead snorted coldly and said loudly, “Stop! The capital’s sacred land, under the feet of the Son of Heaven, actually dares to forcefully massacre the people. This is an unforgivable sin!”
The man’s voice was slightly hoarse and could be heard to be soft and waxy, but the majesty of his words was still shocking!
Rong Ruo looked sideways. The man in front of her was on the side of the backlight. She could only see her figure and a moon-white robe. As for her appearance, she could not see it clearly. The guards behind him looked a little bit.
He narrowed his eyes. His plan wouldn’t be interrupted by someone, right?
When the bearded man heard someone shouting behind him, he turned around and saw that it was a brat. Seeing that there were only four helpers behind him, he laughed loudly, “Today’s luck is really good. Another brat came to the door automatically.”
“Only then did you come to my house. My master is the ninth prince of today!” A slightly skinny man ran over from behind out of breath. Seeing the danger ahead, he immediately frowned.
Zhou Jingxu’s expression was cold as he glared at Eunuch Cai, “Hurry up and let those children go.”
However, their chorus caused the bearded man to laugh loudly, “Hahaha, you dare to pretend to be the Third Prince! Today, we will eliminate all harm for the people and tie you up, the so-called fake Ninth Prince!”
Originally, some people were a little scared when they heard Zhou Jingxu’s identity. However, hearing the bearded man’s words, they immediately regained their spirits. “Yes, they actually dared to pretend to be the ninth prince. The crime is extremely heinous. We helped the Emperor capture this person.”
As they spoke, a few people put down the gunny sacks on their shoulders and rushed forward to capture Zhou Jingxu and the others.
The scene was instantly chaotic. Zhou Jingxu’s guards immediately stepped forward and fought with these people.
Rong Ruo lay on Jiang Li’s back and looked coldly at all of this. A strange look flashed through her ink-jade-like eyes. She did not expect that she would actually come to the ninth prince of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. She looked at the people Zhou Jingxu brought with her and reached out her hand. She was afraid that she would be able to defeat these traffickers before long. When that time came, how could he wait and find these people’s lair?
No, absolutely not! Rong Ruo frowned. Even if she whispered to Jiang Li, “You can’t let the Ninth Prince ruin my plan. Hurry up and think of a way.”
“Didn’t you run quite smoothly before? Didn’t you manage to solve it by yourself at this time?” Jiang Li snorted coldly and looked at those people with a smile that was not a smile, as if they were watching a play.
“Is that so? If you don’t help me today, I won’t be willing to go with you. Of course, Daddy is in the capital right now. If I tell Daddy that you bullied me, I think your poison shouldn’t be as good as my Daddy’s.” Rong Jin did not ask Jiang Li. His soft and waxy voice sounded very pleasant, but every single word was a threat.
“You, very good!” Jiang Li’s elegant face also had a bit of helplessness. He was indeed not as skilled as Rong Jin in medicine. With Rong Jin’s beloved son’s life-like temperament, he would really act against him regardless. If he wanted to fight, he would not be able to defeat Rong Jin. In terms of poisoning, he was not as strong as Rong Jin.
He and Jiang Qing were eaten to death by them. Even if they nodded, “Alright, I’ll help you again today. However, don’t look for me in the future.”
When Rong Ruo saw Jiang Li compromise, the smile at the corner of her mouth became a little more intense, and the corner of her mouth rose slightly.
When Jiang Li saw this, he no longer cared about anything else. As he flipped his wrist, a few silver needles flickered in his palm. Jiang Li pushed his wrist and a few silver needles immediately flew out. Under the dense night sky, the silver needles accurately pierced into the bodies of the four guards. However, one of the needles missed.
Even so, two guards had already fallen. Although the other two guards did not fall immediately, their bodies were still on the verge of collapse.
Seeing this, Jiang Li said, He sighed. Rong Ruo, who was lying on Jiang Li’s body, snorted coldly when she saw this. As she whispered, she sighed, “Your technique is still far from my father’s. If it was my father, he would have stabbed those people’s acupoints accurately. You still need to use Ecstasy to knock these four people down. I don’t want to judge who is higher or lower.”
The corner of Jiang Li’s mouth twitched. “I’ve never said that I’m stronger than Master. Little Master, is it really okay for you to belittle me like this?”
“I’m happy.” Rong Ruo watched as everyone fell. Her beard suddenly felt that these people were a little strange when they fell, but as long as they were no longer threatening. He immediately beckoned for someone to come forward and tie Zhou Jingxu up.
Eunuch Cai didn’t expect that these four normally formidable guards would fall just like this. He hated that they weren’t strong. Although he was also afraid, he was still standing in front of Zhou Jingxu.
Zhou Jingxu frowned as he glanced at Rong Ruo and Jiang Li, who had remained unmoved. He frowned. Although Jiang Li’s speed was fast just now, he still found out.
Seeing that everyone he had brought had fallen, he wasn’t worried and didn’t have a trace of fear on his face.
Then, he casually picked up a few stones on the ground and walked back and forth with light steps. When he walked, the stones in his hand had already been put down.
Seeing that they were about to form a formation, Rong Ruo’s eyes were extremely good. She immediately noticed how powerful Zhou Jingxu’s casual movements were.
If Zhou Jingxu continued to move like this, his plan would be disrupted.
He furrowed his brows fiercely. He had to think of a way to interrupt Zhou Jingxu.
He patted Jiang Li’s arm and said, “Do you have a way?”
“No,” Jiang Li spread out his hands, expressing his helplessness.
Rong Ruo frowned tightly and immediately wanted to make a move, but Jiang Li held her back and said, “You can’t act rashly now.” Rong Ruo was helpless and could only watch helplessly as the formation formed in front of Zhou Jingxu, and the people on the bearded side immediately rushed into the formation.
