Chapter 144 Zeng Qianer is held hostage

"Okay! Since there's a road to heaven but you don't want to take it, and there's no door to hell but you insist on coming in, then come on!"

The leading man jumped towards Wang Jiu, and the other two men attacked Wang Jiu from both sides.

Seeing this, the two men beside Wang Jiu also joined the battle. Wang Jiu knew that his opponents were very skilled. Under normal circumstances, he would definitely kill them without a complete body.

But today is different. These people are here to capture him alive. They must have found some evidence. He cannot fight to the end. The most important thing is to escape and settle accounts with these people later.

After more than ten moves, Wang Jiu suddenly jumped to the other side, and attacked another officer and soldier together with his men on the left. Then he jumped to the other side again, and attacked another officer and soldier together with his men on the right.

While the officers and soldiers were still unable to figure out his intentions, Wang Jiu suddenly jumped onto the wall. When the officers and soldiers caught up to the wall, he suddenly turned back and jumped to the alley on the other side.

"Boss! Quick! He's running towards the alley."

It turned out that Wang Jiu had already made up his mind to escape. It was their fault for being too careless. They thought that since they had already captured Eunuch Liu, it should be easy to capture Wang Jiu alive. They didn't expect Wang Jiu to be so cunning.

"You two follow me, chase! The rest of you will capture the rest alive, and those who resist will be killed without mercy."

"Master, why are there so many soldiers in this remote place? It seems they are holding a few people."

Zhou Yang was very surprised. There were rarely any officers and soldiers wearing this kind of uniform in Qingshui Town.

"This is someone from the Ministry of Justice."

Zhou Huaizhi also found it strange. Every year he would come to Qingshui Town and live there for one or two months. The people here were simple and honest, and hardly any major incidents had happened there. So many people from the Xing tribe were dispatched, which showed that the person they wanted to capture today was no simple person.

"Auntie, what happened? Why are there so many soldiers?"

Zhou Yang asked gossipy questions to a woman who was surrounded by a crowd of people and pointing fingers.

"What kind of suspects are you catching? We've caught three so far, and I heard there are still many who haven't been caught yet and have escaped to that alley over there.

Oh! What a handsome boy! Are you married? My daughter is virtuous and kind, hey hey hey! Don’t leave! If my daughter doesn’t work, I still have a niece who is so beautiful…”

The woman originally answered Zhou Yang casually, but she didn't expect that when she turned around and saw Zhou Huaizhi's appearance, temperament and dress, she immediately pulled Zhou Huaizhi to match him up.

Zhou Huaizhi was already used to these things, so he walked away quickly. When the woman saw that she couldn't pull Zhou Huaizhi away, she pulled Zhou Yang to inquire about Zhou Huaizhi's situation.

"Aunt, my young master has already married, why don't you consider me."

"You, forget it, what a pity that you're married. Go away, go away!... Hey, you'd better not leave. You're the young master! You can be a concubine, too. Hey, hey, hey, why are you leaving so quickly!"

The woman's words scared Zhou Yang so much that he ran away. He didn't dare to offend these aunts again. It was just a question. If he offended some woman who would relentlessly pursue the young master, he would be doomed.

Many girls were like this in the past. How could they be so unreserved? His young master is handsome, but he doesn't refuse everyone who comes to him. He is not like the old master.

"Hey! Master, wait for me!"

.........

"Help! Help..."

"Master, did you hear anyone shouting for help? Eh? The voice seemed familiar. Why didn't they shout again? Master? Where have you been?"

Zhou Yang was stunned for a moment. Why did the young master disappear? Could he have gone to rescue someone?

After coming to his senses, he immediately jumped onto the wall and flew towards the alley where the sound came from.

…………

Zeng Qian'er had a very fulfilling day today. Jiazi Alley was really bustling. She didn't expect that her younger sister and the others were so kind and nice that they took in so many children and even hired teachers and masters to teach them how to read, write and practice martial arts.

The children are all very polite, enthusiastic and considerate. Many of them are about the same age as Yu'er and Heng'er, but much more well-behaved than Yu'er and Heng'er. There is really no harm without comparison.

After having a happy and lively lunch in Jiazi Lane, she selected some boys and girls of similar age according to Shangguan Yue's request, but the number was still not enough, so she would have to go to Yahang to buy some tomorrow.

Moreover, before coming here, she had not expected that there would be so many children, and had not prepared some small gifts for the children. She planned to go back to the city early to buy some, and then go directly to Yahang to buy people tomorrow and then come to Jiazi Lane together.

Li Si drove the carriage out of Jiazi Lane and turned into another wider alley. From this alley, he reached the main road, which was much faster.

But just as he entered the alley, he was blocked by three men holding swords. Before Li Si could even utter a word of reprimand, he was hit on the shoulder and passed out.

The maid Hua'er was so frightened that she screamed for help twice before being acupunctured. She could neither speak nor move, and looked at Zeng Qian'er in the carriage in pain.

Zeng Qian'er, sensing something was wrong, drew aside the curtain, revealing a man with a scar on his face. Jian Chen stabbed him in the throat.

If it were many years ago, Zeng Qianer would have been frightened to death, but for so many years, she has always taken care of herself and is used to facing everything alone.

She no longer feared life and death. What joy was there in living, and what fear was there in dying?

Wang Jiu looked at the fearless woman in front of him and couldn't help but take another look at her. There was no woman who would not be afraid when seeing him.

The woman looked gentle and pretty, but the closer you looked at her, the more beautiful she became. She was in her twenties but had such a graceful demeanor. It was obvious that she was not an ordinary girl, so the chances of successfully escaping by kidnapping her would be higher.

To be on the safe side, Wang Jiu pressed Zeng Qianer's acupoints.

When Zeng Qian'er heard the sounds of chasing and fighting coming from behind, she thought to herself that she was so damn unlucky. If she had left a little later, she wouldn't have run into these thieves.

I hope this group of thieves can escape successfully, otherwise her life will be in danger. But can I make a wish before I die? Can I have a husband who will protect me and love me till death in my next life?

The second and youngest sisters said that she was a love-brained person back then, so people with a love-brained personality are easily let down. So if someone else were love-brained for her in the next life, it would have fulfilled her wish.

.........

"Boss, this is bad! Wang Jiu has escaped. He took a woman hostage and ran away. Judging from the decoration of the carriage, it seems to be the carriage of the Protector of the Nation General's Mansion."

"What! The only women in the Protector General's Mansion are the General's wife and a daughter who is only about eight years old and has just been conferred the title of Princess Derong. None of them can be lost!"

"Boss, judging from the woman's appearance and age, she should be the general's wife."

"Hurry up and arrange more people to chase and intercept us from all directions. If the general's wife is in danger, our heads will be in danger too."

Everyone knows that Shangguan Yan dotes on his wife dearly. Now when they catch the criminals, they let them take the general's wife hostage. This is a big mistake they have made.

Everyone felt a chill on their neck.
