Dong Shu had never encountered such a thing. Although she had already regained her senses, she could not think of anything else to do.

In the next moment, the carriage that had stopped suddenly sped up again.

As the carriage started to run, Dong Shu and Mama Yan in the carriage were knocked all over, but the two of them did not dare to complain.

The carriage moved extremely fast, but Dong Shu could clearly hear the clashing of blades behind the carriage.

Seeing that Dong Shu had not said a word and only thought that she was frightened, the arm around Dong Shu tightened.

Seeing that the Mama Yan had always been protecting him, Dong Shu opened her mouth, and finally said softly: "Mama, is someone trying to kill me?" Dong Shu's eyes widened, afraid that the Mama Yan would say something that she couldn't accept.

After the Mama Yan heard Dong Shu's words, she looked at her and nodded. She did not shake her head, and after a moment of hesitation, she said: "Rest assured Madam, this servant will protect you."

Hearing Mama Yan's words, Dong Shu's body trembled for a moment. Just when Mama Yan thought she was going to cry from fright, Dong Shu suddenly looked at her and asked: "Mama Yan, how far is our Zhuang Zi?"

Mama Yan did not expect Dong Shu to actually ask something like that, she paused for a moment, then replied in a low voice: "We still have about an hour's journey." After saying that, the Mama Yan continued, "What plans does the Madam have?"

The sound of swords clashing outside the carriage became clearer and clearer. She had to work hard for a long time to prevent herself from crying.

Dong Shu prayed in her heart. The carriage they were sitting on was still running, so the guard who was driving should still be here. As long as they were a bit faster, they might be able to return to the manor before those people catch up.

Just as Dong Shu was praying in her heart, the sound of arrows hitting the carriage came from time to time.

Hearing this voice, the Mama Yan held Dong Shu even more tightly in her embrace.

Dong Shu had never thought that the Mama Yan would protect her like this. Thinking of what she had thought just now, before she even had the chance to speak, the horse carriage they were sitting on suddenly stopped.

Because of the sudden stop of the carriage, the horses were startled, and the carriage shook for a long time before gradually settling down.

After the carriage stopped, Dong Shu finally opened her mouth and said: "Mama Yan, I don't have any plans. However, I am fortunate and will definitely be fine. Even if it really isn't possible, the Mama must take this chance to escape. I have some good fortune, so I will definitely be fine. "

Dong Shu looked at Mama Yan in a sobbing manner. Just as she finished speaking, Mama Yan rejected him in surprise: "How could Madam have such thoughts? I will definitely protect Madam." After saying these words, when Mama Yan saw that although Dong Shu seemed to be afraid, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart and tell her her guess.

"Mama means that these people are here to capture me because Empress has woken up?" After saying that, Dong Shu frowned and continued: "I had thought that we had met an evil person, and wanted to capture me and ask my husband for money."

Mama Yan never thought that Dong Shu would actually think like that. Because of what Dong Shu had said, she didn't know what to say at the moment.

Just as Mama Yan did not know what to say, the sound of swords clashing outside the carriage suddenly disappeared, and in the next moment, several footsteps came closer to the carriage.

Dong Shu and Mama Yan heard the sound of footsteps at the same time, but before Mama Yan could think of a plan, Dong Shu had already pulled out a silver hairpin from her head quickly, and hid it in her hand with the cover of her sleeves.

Just as Dong Shu hid the hairpin, the curtain of the carriage was opened, revealing two men dressed in black standing in front of the carriage.

The two men reeked of blood. Their eyes were sharp, and the moment they were seen, they felt as if their throats were being choked.

Seeing these two people appear, Mama Yan was still preparing to protect Dong Shu, but Dong Shu suddenly called out, "Mama." While speaking, borrowing her body to block them, Dong Shu lightly squeezed Mama Yan's arm.

Hearing Dong Shu's voice and sensing her pinching movements, before Mama Yan could speak, one of the two men standing outside the carriage spoke out first, "Come down."

As the man's voice fell, Dong Shu unhesitatingly pulled the Mama Yan and slowly climbed down the carriage.

Before they had even completely exited the carriage, Dong Shu could see that not far from the carriage, there were two arrows lying on the ground.

He was one of the guards Emperor Ruikang had arranged to escort her home.

Because there were two carriages, the Emperor Ruikang had arranged for a total of four guards, two guards, and a carriage. However, the surroundings were extremely quiet, other than the sound of the horses trampling back and forth, there were no other sounds.

Dong Shu thought that those four guards must have already been killed.

Thinking about it, Dong Shu gathered her courage, raised her head and looked at the masked man who spoke just now, and asked: "Why did you capture us?"

Hearing Dong Shu's words, Mama Yan thought that even her wife, who was always being protected by her family, would not be afraid, so she mustered her courage and looked towards the masked man in front of him: "Behind us, there are a lot of treasures on the carriage, you can take them away anytime you want."

Just as Mama Yan finished speaking, the masked man in front of them suddenly brandished the sword in his hand, and thrusted it towards Mama Yan's neck.

Neither Dong Shu nor the Mama Yan had ever experienced such a thing, especially Dong Shu, who had originally been holding in with all her might. Who knew that the masked man would only hear the Mama Yan say that one sentence and then kill someone?

Dong Shu wanted to grab hold of Mama Yan's arm and dodge the sword, but the masked man's sword was extremely fast, so fast that she had only just realized it, the sword was already close to Mama Yan's face.

Dong Shu could feel the killing intent from the sword in the masked man's hand. Although the killing intent was not directed at her, she could feel it.

In that moment, Dong Shu felt her entire body turning cold, her back instantly becoming drenched in sweat.

Just when Dong Shu thought that she would not be able to save the Mama Yan, the sword that was approaching the Mama Yan's face suddenly stopped an inch away from her throat.

Dong Shu did not know what happened, but she subconsciously pulled Mama Yan back by two steps.

After she had taken two steps back, Dong Shu realized that a familiar figure had appeared out of nowhere and was battling with the two masked men.

The masked man who had wanted to kill the Mama Yan earlier had already been stabbed with her sword, and was fighting against the other person and Yan Ye with all her might.

After Dong Shu recognized Yan Ye, she heaved a sigh of relief.

"Mama Yan, the person who has come is Yan Ye. He will definitely be able to save us." While speaking, Dong Shu pulled Mama Yan and quickly retreated to the carriage. Using the cover of the carriage, she saw Yan Ye quickly turn around, and with a wave of the sword in her hand, the man who was injured just now vomited blood. With a 'dong' sound, he fell onto the ground.

After Yan Ye killed the man who was just injured, he did not hesitate at all and immediately turned around to fight with the other man wearing a black mask.

Mama Yan also regained her senses at this moment, she had naturally heard of Yan Ye before.

It was said that they met on the way back to the capital, and that because He Ce and his wife, who were also looking for Xu Family in Shang Jing, were saved by Xu Family on their way back there, they were left behind in the manor.

At this time, the Mama Yan did not have time to think about why Yan Ye would appear here. With just a glance, she looked at Dong Shu and said: "Madam, do we need to take this opportunity and quickly bring the carriage back to the manor to find the person?"

Dong Shu also wanted to return to the villa quickly, but she remembered her husband's words of guidance.

"Mama Yan, Hubby told me before that if we encounter something like this, we cannot rashly leave. There are still people waiting to intercept us along the way. Dong Shu thought about the joke that the young master had unintentionally made with him and was at a loss as to whether he should laugh or cry.

She hadn't thought that the joke she made in her room with her husband had turned out to be true.

A flash of tears appeared in her eyes, she quickly regained her senses, then pulled Mama Yan along. "Mama, do you have a fire on you? There's a piece of withered grass over there.

Dong Shu thought that this place was not far from the manor. As long as she ignited the dried grass, it would definitely attract the attention of the guards on top of the manor.

As long as someone came, even if they were injured, they had to protect their own lives and return to the manor.

After Mama Yan heard Dong Shu's words, although she did not understand why she said it like that, she still nodded her head and prepared to light the dried grass as soon as possible and send a message to Zhuang Zi.

Just as Mama Yan and Dong Shu were about to make a move, Yan Ye had already swung his sword once again. When she took the opportunity to reveal an opening, she quickly swung his sword and took the last black-clothed masked man's life.

Although Dong Shu and Mama Yan were planning to light a fire, they were also paying attention to Yan Ye. Seeing that Yan Ye had actually killed two people, the two of them heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that they would be able to escape from death today.
