Steal my marriage? Turn around and marry the tyrant to take the throne

Chapter 1313 Capturing Liu Shixiu

Just when the car slowed down and was about to stop, something strange happened!

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh—"

With a sharp sound, several powerful crossbow arrows shot from the rooftop nearby, piercing the necks of the horses pulling the cart and the shoulders of the driver!

The horse let out a long, shrill neigh, fell to the ground with a bang, and blood splattered!

The driver also screamed and fell off the shaft.

"what!"

Yuntao screamed in fright.

At the same time, seven or eight sturdy men with black cloth covering their faces and holding big knives suddenly rushed out from the front and back alleys.

Their eyes were fierce as they charged straight at the carriage. Their movements were swift and coordinated, clearly a premeditated move from a well-trained team.

"Miss!!!"

Although she knew that everything had been prepared, Yun Tao was still frightened when she saw such a horrific scene, her face turned pale, and she subconsciously used her body to block Lin Wan.

Lin Wan's heart instantly rose to her throat, but at this moment, she burst into extreme calmness.

She pulled Yuntao behind her and her other hand quickly reached for a seemingly ordinary silver hairpin in her hair.

However, just when the gangsters’ knife tips were about to touch the car curtains—

"Do it!!!"

A loud shout suddenly rang out!

The next moment, dozens of figures suddenly jumped out like ghosts from the seemingly empty rooftops, corners, and even from behind the broken cart!

Each of them was as nimble as a leopard, as swift as the wind, dressed in dark, action-friendly clothing, and armed with sharp blades. In an instant, they surrounded the seven or eight masked gangsters!

The comparison in numbers was reversed in an instant, and the offensive force was completely different!

These people who suddenly appeared had clean and neat movements, fierce and precise attacks, and coordinated with each other seamlessly. They were obviously elite soldiers who had undergone rigorous training.

As soon as they met, with the flash of knife, several masked gangsters were stripped of their weapons, kicked to the ground, and knocked unconscious by the handle of the knife!

The incident happened too fast!

The group of masked criminals had never expected to encounter such an elite ambush, and their formation was instantly thrown into chaos.

They tried to resist, but the gap in strength was too great, just like a chicken or a dog encountering a tiger coming down the mountain.

In just a few breaths, most of these people had fallen, leaving only two or three people still fighting stubbornly. But they were already at the end of their strength and were covered in wounds.

From beginning to end, Lin Wan held the silver hairpin tightly and sat steadily in the carriage.

She looked coldly at the lightning-fast drama outside through the gap in the car curtain. There was no surprise on her face, only cold composure.

At this time, a tall and sturdy figure walked towards the street corner step by step like Mount Tai.

It’s Zhan Weiran!

Although he was the commander of the imperial guards and was responsible for protecting the palace, the emperor had ordered him to make every effort to capture Liu Shixiu.

Zhan Weiran's face was stern and his eyes were like lightning as he swept across the situation that had been completely controlled at the scene, and finally fell on the gangster who had been pinned to the ground by two soldiers.

Zhan Weiran walked over and squatted down, pulling off the veil from his face. He pinched his chin, forcing him to meet his gaze, and said in a voice as cold as ice: "Mr. Liu, how are you?"

"Your play of luring the tiger away from the mountain and then killing him mid-route was quite well choreographed."

"It's a pity... every step you take is within our expectations."

Liu Shixiu's pupils suddenly constricted, and the last trace of blood color on his face faded away completely.

He stared at Zhan Weiran, his eyes filled with disbelief and shock: "No... Impossible! How could you..."

He secretly contacted the remaining Liu family forces in the capital, planning to kill that bitch Lin Wan today. How could this be exposed?!

Zhan Weiran sneered, stood up, and stopped looking at Liu Shixiu. He waved to his men, "Take him away and keep him under strict guard! If he escapes again, bring him back!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers dragged Liu Shixiu and his men who were knocked unconscious and captured away from the scene as quickly as dead dogs.

The whole process was well-trained, and the streets quickly returned to calm, as if the thrilling ambush had never happened.

From beginning to end, Lin Wan didn't even look at Liu Shixiu.

Only then did Zhan Weiran walk to the front of the carriage and said to the inside, "Big sister is frightened."

"The rebel has been captured. The affairs here are under the control of the Imperial Guard. You can return home with peace of mind, sister."

The curtain of the car was gently lifted by a bare hand, revealing Lin Wan's calm face.

She glanced at the devastated scene and the rapidly disappearing Imperial Guards, and nodded slightly: "Thank you."

"This layout is very thorough, thank you all for your hard work."

Then, Lin Wan lowered the curtain and whispered to the frightened Yun Tao, "Let's go back."

"Yes……"

A new carriage was quickly arranged, carrying Lin Wan and her servant, and drove smoothly away from the street that had just experienced chaos.

Inside the carriage, Yun Tao patted her chest, terrified, her voice still trembling: "Miss... Although I know Commander Zhan's men are nearby, seeing those people just now, just now, I was still scared to death..."

"Why don't you seem afraid at all?"

Lin Wan leaned against the car wall, closed her eyes, and a cold arc slowly appeared at the corner of her lips.

afraid?

Of course she was afraid.

But from the moment you decide to use yourself as bait to lure out the poisonous snake Liu Shixiu, you must suppress your fear.

Lin Wan often went to several core shops to check the accounts, and occasionally revealed some concerns about the accounts of Xicheng Ruixianghao.

Then there was a mistake in today's emergency account, and the guards around him "happened" to be away...

Every step was a carefully designed bait, waiting for the man who hated her to the core and was eager for revenge to take the bait.

Zhan Weiran's men had already quietly deployed in all possible locations, monitoring any slight movement day and night.

Liu Shixiu's every move today was nothing more than following the route drawn by others, walking step by step towards the cage that had been prepared for him.

This plan is based on Liu Shixiu's hatred for her.

Now that the fish was caught, she could finally let go of the heavy burden that had been weighing on her heart for so long.

The carriage was moving steadily on the way back to the Lin Mansion, and outside the carriage was the hustle and bustle of the bustling city of the capital.

Inside the car, Lin Wan slowly opened her eyes, her eyes clear and bright.

The old account has finally been completely settled.

……

Prince Jin's Mansion, study room.

The candlelight was bright, illuminating Concubine Qi's face which suddenly became extremely ugly.

As she listened to her confidant's hurried report of the thrilling ambush in the streets of West City and the entire process of Liu Shixiu's capture, she felt the handkerchief in her hand almost shredded!

"Trash! Idiot!"

Concubine Qi's beautiful face was filled with undisguised anger: "Liu Shixiu is so useless. He wanted to take revenge on his ex-wife, but not only did he fail, he also completely ruined himself!"
