Zhuang Shangcheng, who was riding on his horse, suddenly became furious. He didn't even look at the old woman who was kneeling in front of him, begging him and only half-turned his head to give an order to the guards behind him. "Someone, drag her down! If she dares to intercept me again, I'll beat her to death!"

Upon hearing Zhuang Shangcheng's words, Lu Zhao, who had been keeping his head down, looked up ahead. His fists were clenched tightly, veins popping out on his face and his pair of eyes were full of anger and anxiety, "Don't hurt my mother! Do not hurt my mother! "

The old woman did not expect Zhuang Shangcheng to give out such an order. She was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Zhuang Shangcheng on the horse, "My son was wrongly accused. My son was at home the whole time, he never went out, why would he go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to kill someone?" Then she pointed at Zhuang Shangcheng and said angrily, "It's you! You must want to do a meritorious service. That's why you accused my son wrongly. It must be. "

Before the old woman could finish her words, a few guards pulled her up from the ground and threw her down on both sides of the street, glaring at her. "Scram!" If you dare to stop Master, I will beat you to death! "

The old woman's body fell heavily to the ground, her head hitting the ground. Blood slowly flowed down her head, and she tried to get up from the ground, but just as she got up from the ground, she fell to the ground.

Ah!" When Lu Zhao saw that the old woman had been thrown onto the ground by the guards and couldn't even crawl back up, he suddenly went crazy. With a single exertion of his strength, he snapped the iron chains around his feet and ran towards the old woman, his eyes full of worry.

The old woman just happened to fall not far from Bing'er and Sihan. Lu Zhao ran towards them like crazy, risking his life. The crowd not far from the old woman scattered, afraid that the crazy Lu Zhao would harm them. Including the man who secretly admired Sihan. Only Bing-Er and Sihan were still standing there. They didn't move.

All of the guards standing next to Lu Zhao went forward to stop him, but they were all knocked to the ground in a few moves.

Just as Lu Zhao was about to reach the old woman, a man wearing black guard uniform suddenly appeared in front of Lu Zhao. His back was to Bing'er and Sihan, and he said coldly, "Lu Zhao, why aren't you stepping down?!"

Lu Shao immediately stood still, his fists tightly clenched. Blood dripped from his fists onto the ground, "Don't block me!"

"Zhao'er, don't worry about your mother. You can't fight with the guards, that's against the law." The old woman lay on the ground and looked pleadingly at Lu Zhao.

Lu Shao's bloodshot eyes looked at the old woman in heartache, "Mother!"

The old woman shook her head at Lu Zhao, "Zhao'er, listen to mother. Go back. Don't worry about mother. Mother will definitely be fine." "Let's go back."

Lu Zhao ignored the old woman's words, continuing to walk forward step by step. Behind him, more than ten guards tightly surrounded him, not daring to step forward and take him down.

The black-robed guard standing in front of Lu Zhao furrowed his brows, "Lu Zhao, why aren't you leaving?" His tone was filled with anger.

"Zhao'er, hurry up and leave." The old lady ordered.

However, Lu Zhao paid no heed to the words of the old woman and the guards and continued walking forward. He would only be at ease if he saw with his own eyes that his mother was fine.

"Lu Zhao, you need to know that you've committed a death sentence. If you dare take another step forward, I'll take you on the spot!" The black-robed guard drew his sword from his waist and stood in front of Lu Zhao to protect him.

Lu Zhao didn't show the slightest fear as he looked at the black robed guard, still walking step by step towards the old woman.

"No! Zhao'er, don't come over here!" The old woman looked at Lu Zhao, who was walking towards her, in fear.

"You're courting death!" The black-robed guard brandished his sword and struck towards Lu Zhao, who dodged and dodged the sword attack. The two began to fight. The black-clothed guard wielded his treasured sword and attacked Lu Zhao, while Lu Zhao used the broken iron chain as his weapon, blocking the black-clothed guard's attack.

"Zhao'er, if you dare to take another step forward, mother will die for you!" After saying that, the old woman's head slammed into the ground, causing blood to flow out continuously from her forehead.

Everyone looked at the old woman in shock.

Seeing the old woman's head continuously bleeding, Lu Shao's heart ached. He stood blankly on the spot, and didn't even manage to dodge the sword that the black robed guard had thrust at his chest.
