Yusui Chang'an

Chapter 948 Confrontation under knife threat

Master Meng didn't understand why the man in black knocked him unconscious and failed to rescue Lin Jinyan.

Just as he was about to kill Lin Jinyan and flee from here on horseback, Wei Zhong surrounded him with several guards.

Then he grabbed Lin Jinyan, held a knife across her neck, and confronted Wei Zhong and others.
-
Gu Ruizhou, who was the first to pursue him, saw no trace of Wei Zhong and the others, let alone the carriage, along the way, and he was waving his horsewhip quickly with anxiety.

While he was panicking, he saw a man in black lying at the fork in the road ahead.

Gu Ruizhou hurriedly dismounted and checked. The man in black had been cold for a long time, and he had never seen his face under the scarf. He recognized that the injury on the chest of the man in black was caused by a soft sword. Gu Ruizhou immediately thought of Hong Jiu.

Disperse the followers you brought and search nearby.

Gu Hongzhang and Chu Chengping, who came later, also dispersed the people, half of them continued to chase along the road, and the other half searched nearby.

After searching for a quarter of an hour, Jin Wei led his troops to chase him. Before the three Gu family members could thank him, Dingbei Army led the guards who followed Wei Zhong to rescue Lin Jinyan and ran over.

The guard was running out of breath and did not bother to salute. He took a breath and quickly explained the whole story:
"Xiao Xiao and Manager Wei chased the carriage to rescue the lady. The thief panicked and drove the carriage to a cliff before being surrounded. The thief threatened the lady with a knife and forced Manager Wei to let him go. Manager Wei was afraid that the thief would hurt the lady. , I dare not take action, so I asked Xiao Xiao to come back and find help. "

After the guard finished speaking, Gu Ruizhou stepped forward and stretched out his hand to pull him onto the horse:

"Come up and lead the way!"

The guard mounted his horse to point out the direction. Gu Ruizhou rushed out first, followed by everyone.

Master Meng, who was holding Lin Jinyan hostage, saw that only Wei Zhong and the others had Lin Jinyan as a hostage. He had a good chance of escaping and had hope of survival, so he naturally did not want to seek death.

He forced Wei Zhong and others to retreat, cut off the rope pulling the cart with a knife, slowly retreated and pulled the reins, and threw Lin Jinyan onto the horse's back. Just as he was about to mount, he heard the sound of horse hooves. Xun Sheng looked around and saw the Gu family arriving with the Dingbei Army.

Lord Meng stared angrily: God is really going to kill me!

Knowing that there were so many people there, he would never be able to escape. Master Meng simply calmed down, pulled Lin Jinyan off the horse, and put the knife across her neck again:

"Yan'er!!"

"Miss Lin!"

The three members of the Gu family, Chu Chengping, Feng Sinian, and Jin Wei all screamed when they saw this. They were either frightened or heartbroken, or they got off their horses with worried expressions on their faces.

The sleepy Lin Jinyan lowered her head, her face completely covered by her messy hair and scarf, and showed no response to their calls.

Gu Hongzhang: "No matter who you are ordered to do or what your intentions are, as long as you let my granddaughter go, I will spare your life."

Mr. Meng, who was determined to die, showed no fear at this moment and laughed loudly:
"General Gu, it's only your granddaughter's fault that she doesn't know how to appreciate others. She insists on not taking the position my master gives her. If she offends my master, she can only pay for it with her life."

Gu Hongzhang's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and his whole body was filled with a formidable aura:
"If you dare to hurt her in the slightest, I will cut you into pieces and kill your entire family!"

Master Meng is not afraid at all:
"Old man, I was surrounded by you today and I didn't want to leave alive. It would be considered a romantic death to bury your beautiful granddaughter with me before I die."

Chu Chengping: "No matter who your master is, if you dare to hurt Miss Lin, I will make your master pay for it with his life."

"A mere prince with no real power dares to ask my master to pay for it with his life."
