Weren't they in the cell? How did they end up here? And Mo Litian, why is he here too?
Seeing Liu Rumei waking up, the three of them instantly breathed a sigh of relief. "You're finally awake."
Smelling the smell of blood on A Nan, Liu Rumei couldn't help but frown. "What happened?"
Mo Litian quickly told her the situation and finally said, "It's almost dawn. We can't go on like this."
Among the four of them, Liu Rumei didn't know martial arts, and A Nan was injured. They might not be able to get rid of the pursuers just by walking.
"Let's split up. A Nan, you go back to the capital with Miss Liu. I'll lead the pursuers away with Hengniang."
Hearing this, A Nan shook his head without hesitation. "No way. I'll go with Hengniang. You take Liu Liu back to the capital."
Hengniang looked at Mo Litian with a bit more approval. She gave A Nan a disdainful glance. "Do you want to be a burden to me? They want to capture Liu Liu. They should think that Mo Litian will take her back to the capital. We'll lead them away. You guys hurry up and leave!"
Liu Rumei gritted her teeth. She once again felt powerless. She thought that if she had known this, she shouldn't have left the capital.
Hengniang winked at Liu Rumei and whispered, "Wait for me at the inn."
A Nan bit his lips. His eyes were full of unhappiness, but he didn't say anything more. He was injured, so he was really a burden.
Hengniang and the other one didn't waste any more time and quickly headed towards the capital.
Liu Rumei and A Nan hid in place. When it was fully dawn and the sun rose, they managed to avoid two groups of pursuers before they poked their heads out and left carefully.
Although it wasn't far from here to the capital, it would probably take them three days to walk back on foot! By then, everything might be too late!
A Nan whispered to Liu Rumei, "Can you ride a horse?"
A look of embarrassment flashed across Liu Rumei's eyes. "No..."
A Nan sighed. "Wait for me here. Don't move."
Liu Rumei nodded obediently and stayed in place quietly. She apologized in her heart again. She promised that she would learn horse - riding after this!
About half an hour later, the sound of wheels rolling came from not far away. Then came A Nan's deep voice, "Get in the carriage!"
Liu Rumei looked at the gray - haired old man driving the carriage and blinked. "A Nan?"
A Nan reached out and touched his hair. "Get in first!"
Liu Rumei didn't dare to delay and quickly got on the carriage. Then they headed towards the capital.
The Lian Family.
Lian Jingzhou's eyes were full of viciousness, which made people extremely afraid. "They escaped?"
"Sir, please forgive us. We've sent people to chase them. We'll surely bring that woman back."
There was a cold light in Lian Jingzhou's eyes. "Has Lian Rui not come back yet?"
His daughter was always cautious in handling things and had never made any mistakes. But this time, she hadn't returned for a long time. Could something have happened to her?
"Transfer immediately. Don't let others catch us!"
"Yes!"
"Be sure to capture Liu Rumei!" Only in this way could they have the qualification to negotiate! That thing must be in Lan Fang's hands. Breaking into the Prince Guoan's Mansion to rescue people was just asking for death. They had to think of another way.
Almost everything was out of his control in an instant, which made him even more resentful.
It was all his fault for being careless. He didn't expect that Lian Qin would cause such a big problem for him.
"Understood!"
...
Mo Litian and Hengniang looked at the increasing number of people behind them. Their eyes were full of coldness.
"Go separate ways!"
Hengniang nodded and ran towards another direction.
A Nan and the others should have gone far away. Now they just needed to get rid of these people.
At this time, Liu Rumei changed into the coarse - cloth clothes that A Nan had found and casually smeared some ash on her face.
The two of them rushed towards the capital all the way.
Seeing the city gate of the capital in front of them, Liu Rumei finally let out a sigh of relief. They had finally arrived.
However, A Nan didn't relax at all. He looked around warily. There was a faint killing intent in the air!
He didn't expect that these people would be waiting for them here!
Thinking of Liu Rumei in the carriage, A Nan gritted his teeth and whispered, "When the opportunity comes, don't worry about me. Just go quickly!"
If it were in normal times, these people would surely not be his opponents. But unfortunately, he was seriously injured...
Just as he finished speaking, a group of black - clothed figures suddenly appeared. The blades on their waists glistened with a cold light. Liu Rumei gritted her teeth. "You go! They're after me! Go find Mo Liandi!"
She knew her own strength well. Even if she left alone, she couldn't run far. Instead, she would cost A Nan his life!
On the contrary, A Nan still had a glimmer of hope.
How could A Nan be willing to leave her alone? He immediately shook his head without hesitation. "Where would you have me put my face?"
If he didn't send Liu Rumei to the capital safely, he might never be able to hold his head up in front of Hengniang in the future.
The black - clothed men in front rushed towards them, determined to take Liu Rumei behind A Nan away.
A Nan's martial arts were really good, but there were too many of the opponents, and A Nan was injured. He soon fell into a disadvantage and got a lot of injuries.
Liu Rumei's face was full of anxiety. After hesitating for a moment, she jumped out of the carriage, took a deep breath, and shouted, "Stop!"
Seeing this, A Nan quickly understood what she meant. His eyes were full of gloom. He, A Nan, was really losing face for the first time!
"Go!" If they didn't go now, both of them would die here!
Looking at the many black - clothed men in front of him, A Nan gritted his teeth. He took a deep look at Liu Rumei and then leaped towards the capital without looking back!
They were originally here to take Liu Rumei back. Now that their goal had been achieved, they even hoped that A Nan would go to deliver a message to Mo Liandi! So they didn't stop him.
Liu Rumei finally let out a sigh of relief. She looked at the black - clothed men in front of her coldly, but her heart was extremely calm. "Who on earth are you?"
They even built a training ground under the Fulu Inn. Were they trying to rebel?
The black - clothed men didn't answer. They just reached out and took Liu Rumei away.
...
The Prince Guoan's Mansion.
There was still no news of Liu Rumei and the others for a long time. The cold air around Mo Liandi became even colder. His eyes were full of viciousness.
Xue Zhan was sitting leisurely on one side, watching the show with great interest. Now he knew to be anxious. What was he doing earlier?
Ye Zhe didn't expect that Mo Litian would get rid of their people and disappear without a trace!
At this time, a young servant ran in anxiously from outside. "My lord, there's news about the princess!"
Everyone was shocked. Before they could react, Mo Liandi's figure had already disappeared in front of them.
