Chapter 645: Lost Him Again

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation I Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Mrs. Zhou brought the porridge into the house and made Zhou Xing eat quite a lot. He had been unconscious for days and had not eaten a single grain of rice. He must be feeling unbearable now.

“Fortunately, the City Lord’s medical skills are good. Otherwise, you would have died. If anything happened to you, what would Mother do…”

When she found out that Zhou Xing had gotten into trouble, she cried until her tears were almost exhausted. Fortunately, her son’s life was saved. Nothing else mattered.

“Sorry for making you worry, Mother. It’s my fault.”

Mrs. Zhou shook her head. How could she bring herself to blame her son?

“Rest well. Don’t worry about anything else. We still have a lot of food stored at home. We won’t starve even if we’re in the Tiger Base.”

Zhou Xing didn’t mind where he lived, but he felt bad when he thought about how he had almost ruined the City Lord’s plans.

After feeding Zhou Xing the medicine, Mrs. Zhou left the room.

She seemed to have thought of something, so she left the courtyard and went to a place not far from their house.

There was a thatched hut here that was still in relatively good condition As soon as she walked there, she saw a few sloppily dressed men standing outside the thatched hut and looking into the house with lascivious expressions.

“What are you guys doing? Go away, go away! All of you go away!” f(r)eeweb(n)ovel

Mrs. Zhou rushed forward to chase those men away with a ferocious expression.

Those men looked at Mrs. Zhou and gave a sneer. “Where did this old hag come from. Why do you have to be so nosy? Be careful, or we’ll beat you to death.” Mrs. Zhou was not exactly inexperienced, so she was not afraid. “Then you’d better think twice and remember what this place is before you make a move Looks like you guys haven’t encountered the power of those black-robed men. They will kill all of you later until no bones are left!”

They arrived at the Tiger Base the day before yesterday. Meng Zi had briefed her on the current situation in the Tiger Base immediately. Mrs. Zhou knew that Su Ying had taken in a new group of people and Meng Zi told her not to be a raid. Since these people had arrived at the Tiger Base, they would have to accept the rules here. He told her that if she encountered any problems, she could go to the Black Guardian. He had already informed the Black Guardian about their arrival.

The Black Guardian had even eaten one whole chicken at her home before. He owed her a favor no matter what!

When those people heard Mrs. Zhou mention the black-robed men, they shrank back a little.

Those black-robed men would not show them any mercy. Previously, someone committed a crime in the village and was sent to the black-robed men. Up till now, he had not appeared again.

At the end of the day, those few men were afraid of the black-robed men so they left resentfully.

After they left, Mrs. Zhou walked into the thatched hut.

A person was lying in the thatched hut. If one did not look closely, one would almost not be able to see the rise and fall of her chest.

Qing Qing’s wounds had been cleaned, but her face was still swollen because of the heavy injuries.

Mrs^Zhou looked at the face that was almost unrecognizable. She simply could not bring herself to soothe the anger in her heart.

This girl was a spy sent by the Jin State. She almost killed her son but saved him in the end.

Meng Zi said that with the condition Zhou Xing was in at that time, he would ave died if Qing Qing hadn’t brought him to Su Ying in time.

However, if it weren’t for spies like her, how could Zhou Xing have encountered such an accident?

“The City Lord didn’t take your life, which meant that you have already paid the price for what you did. I hate you, but my son also owes his life to you. I will take care of you. After you recover, get out of here at once.”

Qing Qing’s fingers moved slightly, but she did not open her eyes.

Night fell.

A convoy quietly approached the city gate at the border city of the Jin State.

Xie Rui looked in the direction of the city gate through the curtain of the carriage and almost cried.

They were focused on returning to the city as soon as possible, so they did not notice another team hiding in the dark.

“That’s great. We can go back soon.”

As soon as Lu Yi finished speaking, a group of people darted out of the darkness and quickly intercepted Xie Rui’s convoy.

They were about to reach the safety zone, but to their dismay, people showed up halfway to attack them.

“Protect our Master!”

The accompanying guards stepped forward to shield the horse carriage.

Lu Yi also moved to sit in the coachman’s seat. She was preparing to drive the carriage to charge out at any time.

Both sides started fighting, and Xie Rui’s heart was in his mouth.

“Those who kill the First Prince will be generously rewarded!” The other party suddenly shouted menacingly.

The killers who rushed out worked even harder.

The people who were escorting Xie Rui were not weak in martial arts, but they were no match for the large number of people on the other side. Just as Lu Yi was about to bring Xie Rui and charge to the city gate, one guy behind them quickly rushed toward them and leaped into the carriage. He then pressed his icy-cold sword against Xie Rui’s neck.

“Move!”

Xie Rui was abducted again!

Besides Lu Yi, only three of the people who escorted Xie Rui were left alive.

“You guys go after him. I’ll return to the city immediately and explain the situation to Third Master.”

“Alright.”

Zhou Wei knew that Lu Yi and the rest would return to the Jin State today, so he had been waiting for news in the house.

It was almost dawn, but there was still no movement outside.

Even a patient man like Zhou Wei felt a little uneasy.

Just as he thought of something and stood up, he heard footsteps coming from outside the door.

Third Master, bad news. Something has happened.”

Lord Wang’s face was pale. He had been by Xie Rui’s side for many years but had never been so anxious before.

“What is it? Speak.” (f)reeweb(n)ovel.com

“His Highness has been abducted again.”

Zhou Wei’s eyes twitched violently. “Those people from the northern wilderness are really capable!”

-No, it’s not them,” said Lord Wang as he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Zhou Wei’s face clouded over. “What on earth is going on?”

Lord Wang told Lu Yi to come in and explain what happened.

After Lu Yi gave her report, Zhou Wei’s expression turned even more unsightly. He was already outside the door, yet he could still be abducted!

“Third Master, I believe that those who abducted His Highness were not from the northern wilderness. When they were attacking, they shouted that those who killed the First Prince would be generously rewarded.”

If the people from the northern wilderness had wanted Xie Rui’s life, his bones would already be decomposing by now.

These words reminded Zhou Wei of what Xie Rui had told him earlier, and that was, someone had poisoned him.

However, who could this person be?

Did the other party leave behind any tell-tale signs?”

Lu Yi took out a silver token from her body. “I found this on one of the corpses.” Zhou Wei took the silver token and examined it. His eyes instantly turned incredibly dark and gloomy.

“It’s the Second Prince’s secret guards!”

He knew that the Second Prince Xie Jun kept many secret guards. Previously, they had crossed swords in some covert operations and they had found the ’ same token on one opponent’s body.

“The Second Prince’s men?”

Lu Yi and Lord Wang were both extremely surprised. Why would the Second Prince’s men come here?

Could it be that the news of Xie Rui coming to the northern wilderness had been leaked?

If the Emperor knew that Xie Rui had left the Jin State without permission and was abducted, would the Emperor still give him the position of Crown Prince? “Third Master, what should we do now?”

Zhou Wei was very angry, but he had to hold back his anger. At this moment being angry would not solve any problems.

Their current stance in this predicament was too passive and reactive. “Continue to send people to search for the First Prince’s whereabouts. This matter must not be leaked, do you hear me?”

“Yes, Sir. I’ll go now.”

As soon as the subordinates left, Zhou Wei immediately went to the desk and wrote a letter to the Prime Minister’s Mansion, detailing the situation and his plans..
