Chapter Forty-Eight: Exposed
When Xiao Jingmo's sister and brother were leaving, the ironclad army had already broken into the main hall, and King Qing and the princess walked out hand in hand.
The last thing Xiao Jingmo saw was the back of his parents being taken away. He clenched his fists tightly, his fingernails pricking his palms with blood. The Dark Guard dragged him and quickly left.
The Xiao family sisters and brothers did not expect that this parting, after that, life and death would be separated, yin and yang!
Before dawn, the major city gates have been heavily guarded, and all exits from the city need to be strictly checked.
Xiao Jingmo's sister and brother had to hide in Nanshi, most of them are poor here, and they usually do some small business here, and the population flow is relatively large, the sister and brother changed their descriptions with the help of the secret guards, and the ten secret guards were divided into zero, each pretending to be an inconspicuous pawn of the peddler and protecting them secretly.
The ironclad army searched from house to house, and they had no choice but to buy a small courtyard. Inevitably, there were many conspicuous people, and only the leader of the secret guard was left in the courtyard.
On the third day, two of the guards went out to investigate the news.
Xiao Jingmo was young after all, and his father and mother were arrested, so he couldn't hold his breath for a while, and went back and forth in the small courtyard they bought.
Xiao Ruyu, as the county lord, has never experienced such a thrilling thing as escaping since she was a child, and she misses her parents, and she has been worried about her for several days.
She was afraid that her brother would be anxious, so she barely endured it, watching Xiao Jingmo so anxious that even she felt dizzy, she was trying to comfort him, so she heard the door of the small courtyard being slapped "clang".
The two siblings were both frozen on the ground, and the eldest brother dressed as the leader of the secret guard said in a low voice: "It's here!"
The ironclads searched house to house, carpet searching, and finally arrived at the courtyard where they were hiding.
"Open the door!"
Although Xiao Jingmo was a little panicked, his father's years of training made him immediately calm down, he subconsciously raised his hand and touched the dagger hidden in his chest, his expression was condensed, at this moment, he calmly did not look like a fourteen-year-old boy at all, he made a gesture at the leader of the dark guard.
Everyone was ready in an instant.
As the door opened, a group of ironclad soldiers poured in, and the leader first glanced around the small courtyard.
This courtyard is not very big, most of the poor people living in Nanshi City, there are almost no large courtyards, and the rich and official families will not choose here, at a glance, there is nothing abnormal.
The leading ironclad army set his eyes on Xiao Jingmo, the young man was thin, his face was pale at this time, he was sickly, he bent over and coughed, like a tuberculosis patient, he looked away, but his eyes were sharply staring at the leader of the dark guard, and at the same time waved his big hand.
"Search!"
Then, he stared at the leader of the Dark Guard and asked, "What is your relationship?"
The leader of the dark guard hurriedly shrank back, looking frightened: "Lord Hui, that's the little brother of the grass people! He is sick, and the grass people are trying to take him to see the doctor!"
"Who else is in your family?"
"Back to adults, Caomin's parents died when he was a child, and there are only three younger siblings in the family!"
The man let out an "oh", and then heard a commotion from the ironclad army who had entered the house to search for him, mixed with a woman's exclamation.
It's my sister's voice!
Xiao Jingmo and the leader of the dark guard didn't care about the disguise, and subconsciously ran into the house, and the eyes of the leader of the ironclad army shot out two fine lights, and then followed.
When he entered the house, he saw Xiao Ruyu's arm being pulled by two ironclad soldiers, and Xiao Jingmo was angry at that time.
"it, let go of my sister!"
With a roar of rage, he pounced, and the dagger hidden in his chest slipped into his hand, stabbing into the chest of the nearest ironclad.
As soon as he moved, the leader of the dark guard naturally couldn't let him be in danger, and besides, even if their identities were not revealed, these ironclad troops would not let them go, so it was better to strike first.
The primary purpose of the leader of the dark guard is to protect the prince, and as soon as Xiao Jingmo moved, he pulled out the soft sword from his waist and turned around sharply, aiming at the leader of the ironclad army who was chasing after him.
"How daring!"
The sword light ran to the door and slashed, and Rao is leader of the ironclad army found out that they were wrong, but he didn't expect them to dare to be so bold.
"Whew!"
The subtle entry, the sound of flesh sounded, and the ironclad army who was grabbing Xiao Ruyu screamed miserably, fell on his back, blood splattered on his chest, and after a few convulsions, he lost his breath.
At the same time, the dagger in Xiao Jingmo's hand retreated, and it wiped off the neck of another ironclad army.
From the time he shot to the death of the two ironclad soldiers, in less than a few breaths, he grabbed his sister's arm and ran out.
The leader of the ironclad army was entangled by the secret guards, and the two couldn't tell the winner for a while, and the other ironclad soldiers had already rushed up and chased them out.
At this time, it was getting late, this place was secluded, and in recent days, there was a lot of movement of the ironclad army, and there were no pedestrians on the street.
When their sister and brother ran, the secret guards hiding in the shadows shot extremely fast, and all of them stopped the chasing ironclad army.
There were casualties on both sides, Xiao Jingmo couldn't care about anything else, he was a man in the family, he wanted to protect his sister, he was pulling Xiao Ruyu to run wildly, while paying attention to some terrain, and his brain was also spinning rapidly.
If they can't get out of the capital, it means that they will be arrested sooner or later.
Just thinking about it, Xiao Ruyu suddenly snatched her body forward, she insisted on it for a long time, it was the limit.
"I ...... I can't run...... Leave me alone...... Go yourself!"
She was lying on the ground, her pretty face was pale, although it was a cold winter day, she was sweating all over.
Xiao Jingmo squatted down and pulled her twice, but she didn't pull, Xiao Ruyu was soft, and she couldn't exert any strength, so she just repeated: "Mo'er, you go quickly!"
Xiao Jingmo was painful and remorseful, he only wanted to go out of the city to find Uncle Sanhuang and save his father and mother as soon as possible, but he forgot that his sister was delicate, how could this be good?
Just as he was anxious, he heard the chaotic footsteps of the ironclad army coming from a distance.
The winter sky in the north darkens very quickly, and the last bit of afterglow of the slanting sun disappears in the western mountains, and in another part of the southern city, two waves of people are facing each other.
"Hua Qianyue, don't you think it's not authentic for you to do this?"
The young man dressed as a swordsman raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile: "Young Master Jin, what you say is really ridiculous! Hua Mou is not talented, and he has not forced his aunt and cousin to have a home and cannot go back! Besides, Hua Mou came to Shangyuan to go shopping, what is the matter with you?"
Jin Shixian's eyes widened, this person is really shameless! Obviously, he made a deal with Mr. Fang for what sword score, and now he is beating up again, what kind of aunt? That mother and daughter are obviously a disgrace to the Jin family!
As soon as he remembered that his grandfather was still worried about their mother and daughter when he was seriously ill, a sense of jealousy welled up in his heart, he was the real descendant of the Jin family, what kind of thing was that wild girl?
That girl is a mourning star, she killed the old man not long after she was born, and her sister also died indirectly at her hands. The people sent by the torture hall to hunt her down and kill her have also broken several times, what does she owe to the Jin family more than a life?
Jin Shixian's eyes flashed with murderous intent, squinted his eyes, and said: "Although she was expelled from the Jin family, she is still a member of my Jin family, my sister died because of her, and our own affairs are solved by ourselves, I can't control you coming to the abyss, but if you dare to stop me, don't blame the Jin family for not thinking about the love of the family!"
Hua Qianyue smiled: "I'm afraid that no one will stop you, and you are not her opponent, you want to take her back to the Jin family to confess?"
