Chapter 202, Anti-Thief
Li Xiaoran opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment and still didn't make a sound, Li Xuesi pulled his sister and said in a deep voice: "Brother Xiang, let's go, take care." ”
Xiang Shijie looked at them a little stupidly, and said in a low voice: "Take care ......"
Suddenly, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside, followed by a bang, the door was kicked open vigorously, and a group of guards with swords in their hands came in, lined up on both sides, and several guards came in surrounded by a middle-aged man with a majestic appearance.
Xiang Shijie and Li Xuesi were stunned, and their first reaction was to quickly stand in front of Li Xiaoran and block her.
Her heart was slightly warm, but her brows frowned slightly, it seemed that she still underestimated the helmsman of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but she didn't expect that they had already prepared and waited for the rabbit to block her and the little brother.
It's just that what does Master Xiang mean by this?
Don't...... She only thought about it for a while and understood that this was to force herself to stay as a concubine!
She guessed right, Master Xiang didn't want his son to marry a village girl who didn't have any help, and he didn't want his son to be angry with himself, in the past half a month, the father-son relationship between him and Xiang Shijie that had just eased down fell to the freezing point again, he thought, leave the woman that his son likes, except for the name almost, he has to fulfill his wish, and slowly look away.
But he knew that his son was stubborn, and he would definitely not wronged the woman, and after thinking about it, he felt that since persuasion was not possible, then only strong would come. It was an accident tonight, originally, he was going to get someone at the place where his son made an appointment with him tomorrow, but he didn't expect it. He was afraid that his son would sneak away, so he secretly sent a lot of people to monitor the third floor and the outer third floor, and someone came to report that it seemed that someone had sneaked into his yard, so he decided to bring someone over to take a look.
Seeing the young and beautiful little girl and the handsome young man in his son's house, he was proud, God helped me!
"Father, what do you mean by that?" Xiang Shijie took another step forward, looked at the guards gathered indoors and outdoors, and asked with a frown. He looks calm on the surface, but inside he is beating a drum. I was afraid that my father would be unfavorable to the two brothers and sisters.
The power of these magnates. He is deeply touched now, it doesn't matter if something happens to Ran'er and them here...... When he thought about it, his face couldn't help but become solemn. Stared at Master Xiang closely. There was a thick vigilance and vigilance in his eyes.
The old man looked at the young man and the girl who only showed a little face. Well, yes, it doesn't look like a village one. Seeing this big battle, he didn't tremble timidly, no wonder this son admired the Li family so much, he was a little bold.
"This is the girl of the Li family and her brother? Although the identity is a little worse, but since you like it, you are just a concubine, set up two tables of bars, as for her brother, just look at finding an errand in the shop. Master Xiang thought that he had given a lot of face, and said casually, but in fact, he stared at them with a pair of eyes, wanting to see the looks of his son and the two.
Xiang Shijie's face changed greatly when he heard this, and he turned around to see the expressions of the two, for fear that they would think that this was his idea.
Li Xuesi was furious and roared: "Don't dream, if you want my sister to be a concubine, it's impossible." Brother Xiang, farewell! The last sentence was not good for Xiang Shijie's words.
If he hadn't handled it properly, would he have had this humiliation?
He was about to go out with his sister in tow, but at the door, the guards stepped forward, and their swords came out, stopping them.
"What do you mean by that? How? Do you want to rob people's girls? Li Xuesi was furious and turned to look at Xiang Shijie.
Xiang Shijie panicked, hurriedly ran over, and said to Master Xiang: "Father, what do you want to do?" Let them go, I promise you to marry Miss Sun, they are my saviors, you can't take revenge. ”
Before Master Xiang could speak, a little servant ran in and whispered a few words in his ear. His face changed dramatically when he heard this, he waved his hand, squeezed out the word "go" from between his teeth, turned his head and walked out, without looking at them again.
These people appeared inexplicably, and left inexplicably, leaving behind a confused trio.
However, this place can't stay for a long time, Li Xuesi held a grudge against the words of the prime minister, and he didn't look at Xiang Shijie, so he pulled his sister and left.
Xiang Shijie felt sad and hurriedly explained: "Listen to me, I really don't know about this, and I don't have this idea, I won't compromise Ran'er." ”
Li Xuesi snorted and didn't speak, Li Xiaoran turned around and smiled at him, "I know Brother Xiang, I don't blame you, it's just that we can't stay in this place anymore, Brother Xiang, take care." ”
Xiang Shijie was sad and melancholy in his heart, and wanted to send them out, but he was stopped at the gate of his yard, so he had to look at the backs of the two and say goodbye silently.
Li Xuesi and the others climbed over the wall to come in, and of course they couldn't go out over the wall anymore when they were discovered, but they didn't expect that they went out of Xiang Shijie's yard, and when they were about to leave the house, they were stopped again.
"Two, please stay in the house temporarily, and the young master can leave only after the uncle finishes setting up the wine." Although the attitude of this steward was respectful, his expression was definitely disdainful.
Li Xuesi gritted his teeth with hatred, the old man left suddenly just now, they thought that what Xiang Shijie said worked, but they didn't expect that this Xiang family was too treacherous.
Fortunately, Master Xiang left temporarily because something happened, leaving only five or six guards here, and these people did not take the two of them seriously.
Li Xuesi and his sister glanced at each other and didn't let them go, so they could only break in. The two of them had a good heart, and suddenly burst out and hurt people, holding hands and flying one person and one kick, after kicking the two unsuspecting guards into the air, their hands flipped over, and a short blade no more than a foot long appeared in each of their hands, and rushed towards each other.
The other party's guards were careless before, but they didn't expect the two thin teenagers and girls to have such good skills, but after all, they were all trained, and after being stunned, they reacted, and the two sides fought together.
The sound of swords clashing, the sound of the guards shouting loudly, the previous steward retreated a few feet in fright, turned and ran. I guess I went to report the news. And as the voice came out, people from both sides ran over.
"Little brother, let's go!" This is the opponent's home field, if it is surrounded, it will be able to break through, and it will also make things bigger, and when the time comes, the Prime Minister will not spare them if he loses face, this Shengjing, but their territory.
Of course, five or six people couldn't stop them, not to mention that there were the Xin brothers and sisters who responded outside, and they took advantage of the reinforcements from the Prime Minister's Mansion to come out of the wall. After running away in one go. only to breathe a sigh of relief. "What an old bastard!" Li Xuesi scolded hatefully.
After all, they are young, and they think that if they don't agree to run out, they will be over, and the Prime Minister can't be ashamed of searching people all over the city. It's too ugly. But Xin Daxin II has a success. Xin said worriedly: "I see." Let's not go back to this inn, let's change it, and go out of the city when the city gate opens early tomorrow morning. ”
Li Xuesi was puzzled. "Can they still force themselves to the inn? However, I agree to go out of the city tomorrow morning, sister, or listen to him and change to an inn. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the neighing of people and horses, and then dozens of people wearing armor appeared from the corner of the street, and the leader rode horses, pointed at them and shouted: "Hold on to them, don't let these thieves escape......
Anti-thief?
Several people glanced at each other, their faces became solemn again, and Li Xuesi shouted loudly: "Master Jun, you misunderstood, we are not anti-thieves, we have just returned from the guest of the Prime Minister's Mansion......"
What he thinks is that these people have recognized the wrong person, as long as they confront the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister will not be embarrassed to say that he wants to force his sister to be a concubine.
But when Li Xiaoran heard the innocent shouting of the little brother, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, and ordered in a low voice: "Hurry up, go out of the city now, the prime minister wants to borrow a knife to kill people." ”
Li Xuesi was a little stunned, although he had killed people and fought with the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but it was the first time in the face of so many officers and soldiers, and it was not easy to think of the explanation and shout loudly, and he didn't react for a while when he heard his sister's words, and those officers and soldiers had already rushed up shouting with big knives in their hands.
For a while, the two sides came together, Li Xiaoran was worried about his brother, afraid of being separated from him, so he kept being next to him, rushing out with his back to back, while Xin Da, Xin Er and Xin San, and even Xin Si all appeared, guarding them, and retreating while fighting.
But there are many people on the other side, and they are formally trained officers and soldiers, not those guards in the Prime Minister's Mansion can compare, and soon Li Xiaoran's brothers and sisters and a few people were separated, they retreated to another alley, and were surrounded by a column of officers and soldiers rushed out of Hula, at this time, four masked black-clothed men jumped out from all around, blocking in front of them, one of them said in a low voice: "Miss Li, it was the Seventh Master who ordered us to protect you and Young Master Li, we are blocking here, you go first." ”
Li Xiaoran didn't expect Yong Wuchen to send someone to follow her, whether it was to follow her or to protect her, she received this love at this time.
She pulled her brother and rushed out, taking advantage of the night, and ran out cautiously.
The streets were full of officers and soldiers patrolling with torches, and Li Xuesi muttered in a low voice: "The Prime Minister's Mansion is going to be wiped out, what does the old immortal think, if you don't get married, you won't get married, why do you have to kill us?" ”
Li Xiaoran said in a deep voice: "There must be something big going on in the city, the Prime Minister is taking advantage of the chaos and pouring dirty water on us, just to take the opportunity to cut off Brother Xiang's thoughts." ”
Since she and Xiang Shijie did not agree with her as a concubine, Master Xiang must have wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of her. As long as she is dead, Xiang Shijie will only be sad for a while, and when the time comes, she will marry Miss Sun, and then take a few beautiful concubines, with a beautiful wife and concubine in her arms, how can she still think of a dead village girl.
Master Xiang really doesn't know his son too well, if something really happens to Li Xiaoran, Xiang Shijie will definitely be able to destroy the Xiang family with his own hands. Don't you care about the Xiang family, I let you have nothing, let the family you care about the most decline, see how you still care?
This is definitely the most ruthless revenge.
After Li Xue's thoughts were understood, he couldn't help but sigh, "These powerful people bend their hearts too much, and they regard human life as a mustard, Ran'er, you still want to open, it's right not to marry such people." ”
Li Xiaoran thought to herself, I didn't marry my eldest brother not because their family was complicated, but because I didn't meet the person I wanted to marry.
The two of them lay down all the way to the city wall, and there were several times more guards under the city gate than when they came, Li Xuesi looked worried and said: "There are so many people, I'm afraid we won't be able to get out, it's better to go to the hospital to take refuge!" ”
Li Xiaoran was a little hesitant, they came for half a month, went to those two medical centers, if they were willing, they would definitely be able to find out. I can't find them in the medical hall, and there is no evidence that they are related, so naturally I won't do anything to those people in the medical hall, but if they find out, the two of them are hiding there, wouldn't it affect those people?
Moreover, if they can't escape tonight, if it is really as she thought, there is a judgment army in the city, then the city gate will definitely be closed for a few days, and when the time comes, the city will be hunted again, then they will be even more unlucky.
No, you can't stay in the city and sit still.
Her heart was crossed, and she pulled the little brother to bend over and slip towards the city wall, at this time, she would not hide her ability, this ability, if she can't protect them, there is no difference between there and not!
It's just that as soon as the two of them arrived under the city wall, they were discovered, "Over there, catch them......" With the sound, officers and soldiers surrounded outside. Li Xiaoran looked at it, stretched out her hand, and a vine appeared out of thin air and hooked the wall, she pulled her brother to jump and swayed up the wall.
In the dark night, even if those officers and soldiers lit torches, they couldn't see clearly what was vine in her hand, and Li Xuesi was on guard at this time, how could he care about what his sister was in her hand, he thought that his sister threw out an iron hook with tiger claws!
"Shoot the arrows, release the arrows!" Those officers and soldiers obviously didn't expect that these two people could fly to such a high city wall, which was about three zhang high, and it was difficult for martial arts masters to go up.
Dense arrows shot towards the two, the two of them waved the short sword in their hands and kept knocking down those arrows, Li Xiaoran retracted his hand, the vines were retracted, and they threw them towards the ground outside the city, and then pulled the little brother to jump down.
"Open the city gates, don't let people escape...... " There was a faint shout from the city walls, and then the heavy city gates were opened, and countless officers and soldiers poured out with swords.
The two jumped off the city wall and ran out, unaware that at the same time, inside the city wall, in an alley, more than a dozen people dressed in black were hiding here.
"Strange, who lured the pursuers away?" One of them muttered quietly. If Li Xiaoran's brothers and sisters were here, they would find that this person was Yong Wuchen who was chasing them all the way.
Yong Wuchen sent someone to follow them to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and then he received an urgent secret report, and he didn't have time to leave a message, so he left with someone, so he didn't know that Li Xiaoran and Li Xuesi were named anti-thieves and were being arrested, and inadvertently helped them lure away some of their pursuers.
"Master, more than half of the officers and soldiers here have chased out, should we leave now? After a while, there will definitely be a large number of officers and soldiers coming to guard the city gate, and it will not be easy to leave when the time comes. Ning Cheng asked.
Yong Wuji nodded, his face was extremely flat, and he took the lead in walking out. (To be continued......)
