We Still Must Chase Your Mother

Ru Jia was practically scared silly, as she reflexively turned to run. Unfortunately, in this sort of time, how could she still manage to run? Feng Yu Heng’s small hand was placed on her shoulder. Seemingly without using any force, Ru Jia was picked up. In a flurry, she was tossed into the room.

The door of the shop was closed up once more. Ru Jia raised her head and happened to be facing Xuan Tian Ming’s golden mask. In this dim light, the mask still reflected light, blinding her and causing her eyes to hurt.

Ru Jia turned her head away and found that there were four clerks on the floor of the shop. They had been tied up and tossed into a corner. They could not move, and they could not speak. It looked as though their eyes were filled with despair and desperation.

Just like how she hoped that the people in the shop could save her life, the people in the shop from Qian Zhou hoped that the two princesses could save their lives. Unfortunately, since her hopes had come up empty, the only path left for them was death.

Xuan Tian Ming looked up and said to Bai Ze: “Take them all to the back and interrogate them. Get the exact locations of their other hiding spots from them.”

Bai Ze smile and walked over to Ru Jia. Reaching out, he grabbed her arm and dragged her over to the corner. When they arrived in front of the four clerks, he finally said: “Let’s go! Follow this one out back to speak clearly.”

Roughly one hour later, Bai Ze finally returned to the room. Saluting the two, he said: “One of the clerks was unable to handle the torture and revealed everything. There are another three gathering points in the capital. They are in the North, West and East parts of the city. This subordinate remembers their locations.”

“Good.” Xuan Tian Ming stood up and curled his lips into a sneer. He then reached out to Feng Yu Heng, “Beloved consort, this prince will bring you to fight!”

In this sort of night with violent lightning storm and strong winds, the ninth prince, Xuan Tian Ming, and county princess Ji An, Feng Yu Heng, braved the lightning and rain, going to the four locations. One was a steamed bun shop, one was a pastry shop, one was a jewelry shop, and one was a rice shop, and they were all destroyed by the two. All of the people inside were captured, with none dying. All were captured alive.

The soldiers that had gone with them to take care of things were completely dazed. They had never seen things handled in such a swift manner, and they had never seen this sort of swift fighting style. They had heard rumors that the ninth prince was an expert martial artist, and they had heard that county princess Ji An was a divine doctor. But it was only today that they knew that their martial arts abilities were truly amazing. It was as though they were envoys from hell, here to collect lives. With an aura of murderous intent, they claimed the lives that they had come for on this stormy night.

This heavy downpour made their actions even more covert. The citizens kept their doors and windows firmly shut to hide from the wind and rain. Even if there was some movement outside, they would be completely covered up by the rumbling of thunder. Nobody knew what had happened that night. Only after the rain and wind stopped the next morning and everyone went out to buy steamed buns and pastries did everyone find that the shops had changed management.

But nobody cared if it had changed or not. They had managed to buy what they wanted to eat. Everything else was irrelevant.

When the hidden agents from the four shops and Ru Jia were sent to the prison in the mountain, Kang Yi, who had been enduring the entire time without speaking out finally let out a shriek and burst into tears. As for Feng Kun, he finally understood that Qian Zhou could not defeat Da Shun. In just a short night, the preparations that they had made over ten years was all wasted.
