Chapter 12: The Cost
Zhu Yuhuan saw Liu Su's fall, but she was only frightened and stared straight ahead, not making a sound. She let out a sigh of relief, shook her hand to signal to Liu Su not to be afraid, then suddenly appeared beside the guard like a ghost! She covered his mouth with her hand, and just as he woke up and was about to jump up, her dagger had already deeply pierced his throat!
Willow's eyes widened as she watched the blood spurt out of that person like a fountain! She still couldn't help but let out a low cry! At the same time her voice rang out, Zhu Yuhuan had already rushed over here, one slash of his dagger and the woman who was still in a daze also fell to the ground with her head tilted back, a stream of blood shooting out from her neck.
"Zhu immediately whispered 'Don't call out! Whatever you do, don't call out!'"
Liu Luo Su was shocked and stared at him, frightened to the point of trembling all over, unable to utter a word in shock. Upon hearing his words, she subconsciously nodded.
Zhu Yuhuan reached out and picked up the quilt on her body, using the dagger that had just killed someone to cut off the rope binding her. Liu Luosu was so scared that she couldn't make a sound.
Zhu Yuhuan explained in a low voice, "I happened to be going up the mountain and saw them being taken away, so I followed them all the way here."
Willow asked with a trembling voice... "Are you human?"
"I don't either... can't bother with that now, we have to get out of here quickly!" Zhu Yuhuan put the dagger back into his waist and reached out to help her up. Liu Luosu's whole body was shaking like a leaf, how could she stand up?!
Zhu Yuhuan turned around and said with his back facing her "My back!"
Liu Luo Su hesitated and didn't come up for half a day. Zhu Yi Huan turned around to look at her, seeing the hesitation on her face, he urged: "Ke Gui is just like my own sister, I see her as my own mother, you shouldn't hesitate anymore, hurry up! If we're caught by the people behind us, we'll all die!"
These words were indeed effective, and Liu Suo no longer hesitated, hastily climbing onto his back.
Zhu Yuhuan carried his mother on his back, walked out from the door, and the surroundings were still quiet. His actions hadn't startled those two people yet, so he let out a sigh of relief and continued walking lightly to the rear gate.
The leader had checked these places before going to sleep and there was no one guarding them at this time, so Zhu Yuhuan opened the door and ran out very smoothly.
The people in the house behind seemed to have never existed, the night was quiet and still, as if nothing had ever happened...
Zhu Yuhuan ran to where the horse was tied up, and when he got there, he saw that the horse had already been stolen by no one. He stood in place for a moment, then remembered that Zhu Yuhuan had come to propose today and shouldn't be staying at the mansion. Since Zhu Yuhuan always stayed at the government-run inn whenever he came, he immediately took off running towards the inn.
……
Zhu Yichan had already lain down, but because he was too excited, he couldn't fall asleep. After today, there were still ten days left before Chu Keqi would get married! He was extremely excited and kept fantasizing about the scene on their wedding day...
Kai Hui rode a horse, when the time came to leave the city gate, she was taken out of the sedan chair and let her ride a horse with him, galloping back to Shuozhou!
Zhu Yichen was getting more and more excited, so excited that he couldn't wait until October 29th!
Suddenly I heard a noisy voice outside, an old woman's voice shouting "I'm looking for the second son of the Duke of Devonshire! I am a servant of the Chu family, come to deliver a message!"
Zhu Yichan sat up with a "huh"! The servant of the Chu family? Who sent him? Old Master or Father-in-law? He quickly got out of bed, put on his clothes, and opened the door to come out. The shopkeeper was already leading a young boy away, smiling and bowing at him...
The old woman ran over, panting and out of breath. On such a cold day, Zhu Yuchen saw that she was covered in sweat! Rushing forward with both hands holding a letter, "Second Master... Second Master, your letter!"
Zhu Yichan looked at her and knew something was different. He hastily waved his hand to tell the shop assistant to go down, then took over the flower note and asked, "Who sent this?"
"Third Sister... call Lao Nü... hurry and bring it over!" The child looked at the sky, neither late nor early, didn't dare say that Third Sister had her deliver it within two quarters of an hour! Her legs were trembling as she ran! Second Master took the flower letter, she immediately collapsed at the door.
Zhu Yuheng turned around and entered the house, opened the letter and looked at the beginning, his face also changed greatly! He stood up quickly and finished reading the letter, his face flushed with anger, furious! Without hesitation, he took out a short sword and hung it on his waist, and immediately went out!
That old woman fell to the ground and hadn't gotten up yet. Seeing him leave, she opened her mouth in surprise but didn't shout. Second Master is going out, it has nothing to do with her, she just sent the message, after sending the message, the errand was done, that's all!
Just as Zhu Yucheng rushed to the door, he was shocked to see a person covered in snow carrying a woman on his back rushing in from the main gate, shouting "Zhu Yucheng! Looking for Zhu Yucheng!"
The shop assistant just rushed over to greet us! This is serious business!"
Zhu Yi Chen heard that the person's voice was Zhu Yi Huan! He exclaimed in shock, "Huan?!" and hastily rushed over to support him.
Zhu Yuhuan looked up and saw him, his face relaxed with a sigh of relief, calling out "Too good! Found you, too good!"
Zhu Yichan had already figured out that the person on his back was Xiao Yi, and when he saw her weakly calling out "Yichan..."
Zhu Yichan was both shocked and anxious, thinking that something had happened to his aunt, and hastily asked "What's wrong? Is she injured?"
"Not hurt! First go back to the house, I'll talk about it when we get back!" Zhu Yuhuan's mouthful of white air had all turned into ice pellets, and he was now shivering with cold all over his body.
Zhu Yuheng hesitated for a moment, it was already the third watch of the night, and there weren't many people left! However, he also couldn't abandon Zhu Yuhuan and Xiao Yi, so he could only turn around and lead Zhu Yuhuan back to the house first. As soon as they entered the house, Zhu Yuhuan placed Liu Luosu on the bed. When Liu Luosu saw Zhu Yuheng, she seemed to have regained her spirits a lot, and called out "Yuheng" again!
Zhu Yichan hastily asked: "Auntie, are you okay? Is anything missing?"
Willow nodded and shook her head, "Nothing."
Zhu Yuheng stood up and looked at Zhu Yuhuan, anxiously asking what was going on. Was everything okay?
Zhu Yuhuan sat down, waved his hand and took a deep breath before saying "It's nothing... it's hard to say, I went up the mountain and happened to run into someone kidnapping my wife..." Liu Luosu was still in shock, listening to him with suspicion, probably thinking he hadn't heard correctly either.
Zhu Yuhuan continued, "I followed her all the way to a mansion on the north side of the city... She wasn't human! I rescued her under the cover of darkness."
"Zhu Yichan was shocked and said, 'Is there such a thing?!' He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly his mind flashed with understanding! He realized that the one who had spoken was Zhu Yichao!"
Zhu Yuhuan suddenly lifted his head and stared at him in surprise!
Zhu Yichan took out the flower letter from his bosom and said it was Zhu Yizhan! I dare to confirm that he found Chegui, understood his origin, and caught Xiaoyi, using this to threaten Qianxi!
Zhu Yuhuan snatched a look at the flower letter.
Liu Luo Su stared at the two people in shock and confusion, inexplicably frightened, still reeling from the sudden surprise, unable to utter a word for the moment!
"Zhu Yi Huan's eyes scanned the scene in an instant, and with a loud slap on the table, he cursed, 'This despicable scoundrel!' He remembered that the sword used to kill the guards was a dragon-patterned sword, which only imperial guards could use! This must be Zhu Yi Zuo's doing!"
"Zhu Yichen said I have to hurry up! Otherwise, he will really send the car to Zongren's mansion and it will be troublesome!" He clenched his fist and walked out.
"Wait a minute!" Zhu Yuhuan stood up and shouted loudly. He had felt something was off when he read the letter, and now seeing Zhu Yuhuan's expression, he knew nothing good would come of it!
He was anxiously thinking about it, but Zhu Yucheng didn't have the patience, his face furious as he turned to leave, "We'll talk later!"
"Zhu Yuhuan exclaimed: I remember now!" He reached out and pulled Zhu Yuanchen, "The car is expensive in this place!"
Zhu Yicheng indeed turned around, looking at him in surprise?
Zhu Yuhuan knocked his head and regretted, "I remembered! In the courtyard where they locked up their mother, there was also a man who looked like a countryman. When I saw him, he wasn't anyone... so I let him go!" He looked at Zhu Yuxian with unbearable regret, thinking that now it must have been Che Gui without a doubt! At that time... if only I had killed him with one sword!
"It's just right! Go and kill that person, I'll go find Zhu Yuetuo!" He said, wanting to head out again.
"No, no, no!" Zhu Yuhuan hastily reached out to grab him and quickly thought for a moment before saying "I'll go kill that rich man, you go find Zhu Yuhao!"
He saw the opposition expression on Zhu Yucheng's face, so he didn't wait for him to speak out and hurriedly said: "The carriage is expensive and can't be delayed, it must go immediately. The people inside have already run away without a mother. If they are, they will definitely change places immediately! Must hurry up! I also need to find a safe place to hide my mother, and... Zhu Yucheng set a trap for me to go, not wanting to harm! I went, he saw that it was empty, and could only withdraw."
"What if he's in trouble?" Zhu Yichen immediately retorted.
"Does he have to harm me?" Zhu Yingtuo said, "He can't wait for me to die, but I'm Ke'er's brother. Does he want me to die too? Isn't it enough that Ke'er hates him?"
Liu Luo Su finally couldn't bear it anymore, she heard it clearly this time! Zhu Yuhuan said repeatedly that he was Chu Ke's older brother! She exclaimed, "What is going on?!"
Zhu Yuhuan and Zhu Yu Chen both looked at each other and said in unison: "We'll talk about it later when we have time!"
Zhu Yuhuan pushed Zhu Yuheng to hurry up and said, "Go now! The north of the city, Mao Er Hutong, it's desolate there, only one house, you'll see it as soon as you go! Go quickly, don't wait!"
