Chapter 528: Divorce plan
"Then what should we do?" Changkong rubbed his hands together, "Are we really just going to watch them rescue Sha Qianli?"
"It's too easy. The prefect might not be able to explain himself, so let's help him." Murong Yanhui stood up and pulled off his cloak, revealing that he was wearing the same clothes as the yamen runner.
"Let's go!" Murong Yan gave an order and landed in the yard as nimbly as a swallow with five or six people.
"Who dares to break into the prison at night?!" Changkong shouted loudly, and his two swords attacked at lightning speed.
The members of the Sea Shark Gang were stunned. The leader asked, "What's going on? Didn't you receive the order from the higher-ups?"
"What oral instructions? What advantages? Do these bold thieves still want to confuse the public?" Changkong said as he attacked, and took care of four people in two or three moves.
The leader of the Sea Shark Gang frowned as he watched Changkong's sword drawing blood. He guessed that something must have happened tonight.
"Second brother, a guest is a guest. How can you not let your brothers greet him properly?" Sha Qianli's sarcastic voice came slowly from the prison. Following the voice, he walked out from the shadows step by step. The moonlight stretched his shadow very long, extending all the way to Murong Yanhui's feet.
"Boss, why is this different from what we agreed on?" The second brother approached Sha Qianli, "Could it be that the man has changed his mind?"
"Nonsense!" Sha Qianli scolded his brother, "You have no evidence, stop disrupting the morale of the army."
The second brother lowered his head, but still said unconvincedly: "That person has always had a bad reputation and is notorious for crossing the river and destroying the bridge."
Upon hearing this, Sha Qianli fell silent, his eyes dim, but he was already moved in his heart. Originally, he only needed to let Wang Shipan cause a murder case, but later he was asked to take the blame. They had agreed that it was just a formality, but who knew that the emperor would actually issue an imperial decree to execute him immediately, forcing him to now arrange for his men to break into the prison.
But even the prison break went wrong. Thinking about it now, all of this really seemed like a conspiracy of that person, luring him into a dead end step by step.
Murong Yanhui keenly noticed the change in Sha Qianli's aura and suddenly smiled, "Boss Sha, my master asked me to bring you a message."
"what?!"
"He said that Boss Laosha is needed these days, and after tonight, you can go wherever you want."
Sha Qianli's face darkened, "What do you mean?"
Before Murong Yanhui could reply, Sha Laoer shouted angrily, "Boss, I told you this guy is going to destroy the bridge after crossing it!"
Sha Qianli gnashed his teeth, "Hey, young man, is this what your boss means?"
"Whether it is true or not, Boss Sha doesn't need to care." Changkong suddenly spoke.
"What do you mean?"
"There's no need to care so much about a dead person." Before Changkong finished speaking, his figure had already flown out like lightning. With a few crisp clang sounds, the sparks from the collision of weapons were extremely eye-catching in the dark night.
In the dark night, swords flashed and sabers flashed. Murong Yanhui stood leisurely in the courtyard. All the soldiers under his command were strong. In addition, the Sea Shark Gang trusted Murong Feng too much and did not send out elites tonight. Therefore, most of them were slaughtered by Changkong and others in the blink of an eye, leaving only Sha Qianli, Sha Laoer and two subordinates.
Sha Lao Er held up the body of his brother who had blocked the knife for him, glared at him with a pair of red eyes and said angrily: "Boss, leave quickly."
Sha Qianli groaned, but was kicked by Changkong. "You take the others and go first, I'll follow behind!"
Sha Qianli's voice was hoarse, and he was obviously furious. "Second Brother, as long as one of us is alive tonight, we must bring the brothers to settle the score with that guy!"
Sha Lao Er slashed with his sword, leaned against Sha Qianli, and whispered, "Brother, I've been on guard against that guy's betrayal. I sent people to dig up the corners of the courtyard wall behind us. I wonder how you'll get out later."
Sha Qianli looked back at the brother who had been through thick and thin with him and said firmly, "You go!"
"Brother!" Sha Laoer was anxious. He grabbed Sha Qianli and threw him towards the courtyard wall. Sha Qianli was caught off guard and hit the courtyard wall that had been tampered with in the past with a "bang".
The wall collapsed with a loud bang, and amidst the smoke and dust, the sound of a horse neighing shook the world.
In the carriage that suddenly stopped, Yu Qingli bumped into the wall of the carriage. Before she could ask, the curtain was suddenly lifted. A man with a bloody face holding a steel knife said coldly, "If you dare to move, I will kill you!"
Sha Qianli jumped into the car, and Xiluo nimbly blocked his way. After a few back and forth fights, Xiluo and Sha Qianli were evenly matched.
Changkong swung his sword and knocked down a man who had chased out. When he saw Xiluo, he couldn't help but ask, "Xiluo, why are you here?"
When Sha Qianli heard Changkong say this, he immediately thought that he had been tricked again and was about to retreat. When he looked up, he saw Yu Qingli in the carriage. Then he remembered that the maid seemed to be protecting this woman. Then he thought that the people in the yard knew this girl, so naturally this woman knew her too.
Without thinking twice, he took Xi Luo's palm strike and jumped into the carriage. He swung his hand and put the knife across Yu Qingli's neck.
"Stop!" Sha Qianli said in a deep voice, "If anyone dares to move again, I will kill her!"
The blade was so cold that it gave Yu Qingli goose bumps on her neck. She looked at Murong Yanhui's anxious eyes and was at a loss for a moment.
I left Lin Yutang's place just to come around and see the situation here. I never expected that the courtyard wall would suddenly collapse, and I never expected to be kidnapped by Sha Qianli.
It seems that we really can't take care of this trivial matter.
Yu Qingli sighed in her heart and gave Murong Yanhui a helpless smile.
"Boss Sha, do you know who I am?" Yu Qingli said softly.
"Aren't you Murong Feng's woman?"
"You know me?" Yu Qingli was surprised. She had always been low-key in the world. Although she married into the eldest prince's mansion, she rarely showed up in public.
Sha Qianli snorted coldly upon hearing this, "Do you need to know more? Murong Feng is as cunning as a fox. He plotted against me and even asked his woman to keep an eye on me? Does he really think my Sea Shark Gang is easy to bully?!"
Yu Qingli felt relieved when she heard Sha Qianli say this. She lowered her head and said with great grievance, "Boss Sha, since you know my identity, I will tell you the truth. Murong Feng is lustful by nature. A woman is just like a piece of clothing to him. I was forced to follow him."
Yu Qingli's words were sincere, which made Sha Qianli believe her a little. He looked down at Yu Qingli. Although he felt that she looked familiar, he had only been in Jingji for a short time, so naturally he didn't know Yu Qingli.
"Boss Sha, I followed him just to survive. How about you let me go tonight and I'll ensure you get out of the city safely?"
Sha Qianli hesitated, and the knife on Yu Qingli's neck inadvertently loosened a few inches.
Yu Qingli knew her chance had come. She reached out and pulled out a token. "Boss Sha, look, this is the palace token. The owner's name is written on the back of each token. How about I take you out of the city and you spare my life?"
"Boss Sha, don't worry, I won't tell anyone about what happened tonight. I just want to stay alive."
"Boss Sha, you can't use this token even if you kill me. If he finds out, the whole city will be under martial law, and you won't be able to escape. You better think carefully. Tonight is your last chance."
Sha Qianli finally put away his knife and growled, "Okay!"
Yu Qingli breathed a sigh of relief and drove the carriage towards the city gate herself.
Murong Yanhui frowned and ordered Changkong to open the city gate, while he followed the carriage all the way.
When the carriage arrived at the city gate, it was already wide open, and Changkong was standing at the gate with a murderous look on his face.
Seeing that Yu Qingli had indeed fulfilled her promise, Sha Qianli took Sha Laoer out of the car and turned around and said, "You are a good woman. Don't follow that man. He has no future!"
Yu Qingli smiled awkwardly and nodded, "Thank you, Boss Sha, for your guidance."
Sha Qianli snorted coldly and quickly disappeared into the depths of the woods, carrying his injured brother. Yu Qingli had just breathed a sigh of relief when she was embraced by a warm embrace. The familiar breath sprayed into her ears, itchy and warm.
Murong Yanhui's arms were wide and his heartbeat was strong. Yu Qingli pressed herself against his chest, feeling extremely safe. She slowly closed her eyes.
At this moment, let me be unrestrained for a moment. In this life, perhaps this is the only time I can let down all my defenses.
"Master, Sha Qianli is missing." Changkong's words broke the world of the two.
Murong Yan glared at him angrily, "If it's gone, then it's gone. Why panic?"
Yu Qingli hurriedly pushed Murong Yanhui away, but he stubbornly refused to let go and just lowered his head and said, "Lili, you scared me to death."
In contrast, Yu Qingli's expression was much calmer. She gently comforted him, "Don't worry, I'm fine!"
"What are you doing in such a dangerous place?"
After he calmed down, Murong Yanhui's tone began to change. He was terrified. If it weren't for Sha Qianli who still had some morality and conscience, Yu Qingli would probably be...
As if sensing his worry, Yu Qingli sighed secretly, reached out and held Murong Yanhui's fingers, interlocking their fingers. The calm emotion conveyed by the warm and cool fingertips finally made Murong Yanhui slowly calm down.
He stared at Yu Qingli's eyes very seriously, with a hint of fear of losing and regaining in his deep eyes. Even his voice was a little hoarse. "Lili, don't do things that challenge my psychological endurance like this again in the future. No matter what happens, you must put your life first!"
Yu Qingli curled her lips and smiled lightly, "Yes! There will definitely not be a next time!"
Murong Yanhui hugged her for a while longer before letting go. He knew in his heart that now was not the time for the two of them to indulge themselves.
"I will send you back."
Murong Yanhui took the initiative to propose, and then took Yu Qingli to the carriage without waiting for her response. Changkong and Xiluo, who had been waiting on the side, looked at each other, showed each other an expression of understanding, and then got on the carriage smartly.
After a while, a sigh came from the car, with a hint of grievance.
"I cannot bear to send you to that person every time!"
Yu Qingli remained silent. At this moment, she really didn't know how to comfort this person, so she took the initiative to change the subject. Fortunately, Murong Yanhui didn't want to continue discussing this matter, and cooperated very well to lead the topic to other things.
