When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, her heart ached for him.

“In that case, Consort Shu isn’t a good person either, so why don’t we teach her a lesson sometime to vent our anger?!”

“Don’t worry, there will be a chance! Let’s collect some interest from Second Brother first! Didn’t he like to send people to assassinate me? Now, I’ll let him have a taste of it. Whether he can survive or not will depend on his luck!” Luo Cheng said with a smile.

For some reason, Li Xiaoran felt that something was wrong with her husband’s smile. Just as she was about to ask, Luo Cheng changed the topic.

In fact, Luo Cheng let the second prince go on purpose.

The Second Prince could die, but he definitely couldn’t die in front of him.

Otherwise, his scumbag father would definitely be furious.

Although his scumbag father owed him a lot now, when it came to facing his sons at the same time, he definitely wouldn’t side with him.

That was why he deliberately let the second prince go.

Of course, after leaving this place, he couldn’t be blamed for what would happen to the second prince.

Speaking of which, the second prince was really unlucky.

It wasn’t easy for them to escape, but amidst their panic, they actually went further and further away.

Ling Kun wanted to find a house to stay in, but he only found one after walking for a long time.

This family looked like mountain hunters on the surface, but they were secretly ruthless robbers.

There were a total of four robbers, who had escaped after the bandit crackdown last year.

After the four of them fled here and repaired the dilapidated stone house, they pretended to be hunters.

Over the years, several missing young masters in the capital had died at the hands of these four people.

It was also because of the money these young masters had that the four of them lived so comfortably and even expanded the stone house.

They were the only family in a radius of more than ten miles.

Just like that, the four of them actually settled down in a remote place near the capital.

The second prince had brought his guards to stay for the night, so he was like a fat sheep in the eyes of the four bandits.

The Second Prince looked rich and noble, while his clothes were lavish. He was just short of saying that he had a lot of money.

However, the guards beside the second prince were not to be trifled with. Although there were only two guards and they were injured, they were still very skilled in martial arts.

When the four of them brought tea, one of the Second Prince’s guards noticed something amiss and gestured to his other companion.

Only the Second Prince, who was in a daze because of what had happened today, didn’t notice anything wrong with the tea.

Before the guard beside him could dissuade him, he had already drunk a cup of tea.

The guard had no choice but to try to kill the four men with ill intentions.

When the bandit saw that the matter had been exposed, his gaze turned fierce and he planned to go all out.

If they didn’t capture these three people today, the four brothers could forget about continuing to live here.

As the saying went, he who was down need fear no fall. These four people were like desperados.

Although the two guards were skilled, they gradually fell at a disadvantage.

“We were tricked!” a guard shouted when he sensed something amiss.

When the other guard protecting the second prince heard his companion’s words, he immediately circulated his internal energy. As expected, there was a problem.

“Hahaha, today of next year will be the anniversary of your deaths!” A strong man rushed forward with a scimitar to end these people’s lives.

Unfortunately, the guard dodged, and the man tripped on something. Then, he lost his balance and fell.

Coincidentally, the scimitar in his hand fell out and stabbed into the unconscious second prince’s thigh.

A miserable scream sounded. The Second Prince’s two guards couldn’t be bothered to deal with these people anymore and carried the Second Prince away to escape again.

Even though the two of them had been set up, the four bandits couldn’t stop them if they wanted to escape.

Just like that, the four bandits could only watch as the three people in front of them disappeared from their sight.

“Brother, what should we do now?” The man who had injured the Second Prince with the scimitar asked worriedly.

“We can’t stay here for long. Let’s pack our things quickly and change places!” the person called Big Brother said.

“Huh? We finally found such a good place. Why are we leaving?!” The tanned man said reluctantly.

“We’ll die if we stay here! My intuition has always been very accurate. If you want to die, stay!” The bandit called Big Brother quickly returned to pack his things.

Soon, the four of them left with their bags in the dark.

“Big Brother, where can we go?”

“The last time we went to deliver goods, didn’t we find a very hidden place? Let’s go there! There’s a dilapidated temple there. We can make do for a few days first and build a stone house!” One of the men said in the forest late at night.

The second prince’s guard brought the injured second prince to a small town.

After waking the doctor up late at night and forcing him to treat the second prince’s wound, the two of them brought the second prince to an inn in town.

Then, the three of them finally rested for a while.

Unfortunately, Luo Cheng had already prepared a big gift for them. How could he let them have things so easy?

The second prince had just woken up after taking the medicine when an assassin appeared…

The next morning, as soon as Luo Cheng woke up, he saw Zi Cheng walking over with a messenger pigeon.

“Young Master, you definitely didn’t expect the second prince to be so unlucky! What happened tonight is enough for the second prince to reminisce about for a long time!” Zi Cheng said happily.

“He’s not dead, is he?” Luo Cheng asked aloofly.

“I did as you instructed. He was spared from death, but he suffered a lot!” Zi Cheng told him what the second prince had experienced last night.

After hearing this, Luo Cheng was also surprised. He didn’t expect his second brother to be in such a sorry state yesterday.

First, he was unlucky enough to encounter four bandits who injured his thigh. Then, the doctor secretly drugged him, so his wound kept itching. In the end, when he was being chased, the two guards died in order to protect him. As for him, he was hidden in a bucket by the guards, which saved his life..
