Chapter 667 - 667: Breaking into the Prison
Su Yanyu immediately said nervously, “Then let’s think of a way to save Shifu. This matter is tricky. There are many eyewitnesses. Although I know that it’s definitely not Shifu, others will not think so.”
There were countless people in the capital waiting to kill Liu Sanniang. It was impossible for them to not seize this opportunity.
Su Yanyu muttered, “The prison is heavily guarded. It’s a little difficult to break in, but we have to try. We have to save her as soon as possible. Hey, who hits me?”
Hu Yu covered her mouth and chuckled.
Liu Yuanyuan looked at Su Yanyu and said calmly, “I did.”
Su Yanyu held back his anger and scratched his head. “Miss Yuanyuan, why did you hit me?”
Wasn’t he thinking of a way to save his shifu? Why did she hit him?
Hu Yu smiled and said, “Because you’re stupid. Venerable Liu said that it’s fine. Just wait for the trial to begin. Why don’t you have any confidence in her?”
Su Yanyu was stunned. “Is it really fine?”
Liu Yuanyuan glared at Su Yanyu. “Then do you hope something happens to Venerable Liu?”
Su Yanyu waved his hand. “Of course I want my shifu to be safe and fine.”
He had just started refining poison and was infatuated with it. If something happened to Liu Sanniang, who else could teach him?
After talking to Su Yanyu, Liu Yuanyuan and Hu Yu still had something to do. They had brought back the real Third Prince, so the current Third Prince was naturally fake.
After telling Liu Sanniang that Su Yanyu already knew that they had returned, Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan left the Marquis Mansion.
Su Yanyu looked at Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan, who instantly disappeared, and was a little envious. He secretly clenched his fists and muttered, “I must learn and cultivate diligently. Perhaps in the future, I can refine a worm that can make me invisible.”
This was a great goal.
The golden cage trapped the three of them. Xia Hongming was anxious, but he could not open this cage.
He looked over and saw that Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan were as calm as usual. They did not even open their eyes.
Xia Hongming sat at the side with mixed feelings. There were footsteps outside. He knew that the guards were changing shifts.
They were really cautious. Regardless of whether Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan wanted to escape or not, they would not slack off.
Xia Hongming was about to close his eyes to sleep when someone walked over with a key in his hand. Xia Hongming widened his eyes. Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan had already stood up.
The person opened the door and said, “Miss Liu, Third Prince, we’re Consort Xian Fei’s people, and we’re here to save you. Come with us. We have to find a safe place to keep Third Prince.”
When Xia Hongming heard this, he quickly said, “It’s my mother. Miss Liu, let’s leave quickly. Xia Qiluo hates you to the core. She must have some hard evidence against you. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so confident. Let’s go out first.”
Liu Sanniang reached out and stopped Xia Hongming. Chu Yan quickly kicked that person away.
Xia Hongming was stunned. “Miss Liu, what are you doing?”
Liu Sanniang looked at Xia Hongming and said, “You’re in the prison now, but if you go out, it’s unknown where you’ll be taken to.”
Xia Hongming’s heart skipped a beat. He was too anxious and didn’t even think of such an obvious thing.
The person who was sent flying had already slowly stood up. His eyes were filled with killing intent as he swung his sword at the cage.
The hilt of the sword was easily grabbed by Chu Yan and broken with a gentle snap.
Xia Hongming hid behind Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan and shouted, “Guards, someone broke into the prison!!!”
Soon, a group of guards rushed in from outside. Seeing that he was outnumbered, the assassin quickly retreated.
Seeing that the cage had been opened, the guards were puzzled.
They could have escaped effortlessly, but they didn’t?
After locking the cage again, the guards became even more vigilant.
Xia Hongming felt a lingering fear. There was danger everywhere, and he could not believe anyone.
Xia Hongming leaned closer to Liu Sanniang and said, “Miss Liu, thank you for saving me.”
Before Liu Sanniang could speak, Xia Hongming continued with a forced smile, “Am I very useless? My mother has high hopes for me, but I’m actually not very capable. I thought that the people around me were all loyal, but I was wrong. I know that when I was in danger, a sealed consciousness was released to escape for me. If it were me, I definitely wouldn’t be able to escape. I’d already be dead.”
Liu Sanniang looked at Xia Hongming. Xia Hongming lowered his eyes. “Miss Liu, you should have seen him, right?”
After staying in the Dizang Manor for so long, the injuries on his body had completely healed. Xia Hongming did not feel any pain at all. He knew that the consciousness had already withstood all the pain for him, and he only woke up after he was safe.
Liu Sanniang said calmly, “His name is Shi Jiu.”
Xia Hongming said to Liu Sanniang sadly, “Miss Liu, if I’ve offended you in the past, please don’t take it to heart. I’m sorry for implicating you.”
Because of him, Liu Sanniang was targeted by the empress. The murder case was just a trap set up by the empress. Xia Hongming was not confident. The empress controlled such a big organization and was definitely more difficult to deal with than any opponent Liu Sanniang had encountered..
