Xue Changshi felt very upset. Looking at the pitch-black sky outside, he could not utter a word except ordering people to pack up quickly.
How could this happen? Everything was clearly under control. He had clearly calculated everything. It shouldn't have been like this. What went wrong
Lu Yuanrong hid himself very well, how could anything happen to him
And if something happened to Lu Yuanrong, then the Zheng Palace... ... then all the connections that Chu Jingxing had originally established in the Zheng Palace would definitely be destroyed.
Ten years of hard work, all was lost in one day.
Xue Changshi was so depressed that he almost vomited blood. Looking at the third brother in front of him, he felt that the third brother had become a blurry shadow, and gradually he could not see his appearance clearly.
The third brother paced anxiously, feeling as if there was a knife hanging around his neck that could fall on him at any time and put him in danger.
He was not afraid of death. After all, he had died once when he escaped from Jiujiang. But what did death mean now? Obviously, everything was going very smoothly. They could not only take revenge smoothly, but also drag Wei Jie and Shen Chen into an irretrievable situation. And they themselves could also rely on Lu Yuanrong's relationship and live a good life in hiding.
But now, everything has suddenly changed, and I have to live the life of a fugitive again.
And this time it's even worse - the last connections Chu Jingxing had left were also destroyed. There was no one left to support them from behind. If they were caught, they would be dead, and there would be no other way out.
He paced around without a rest, thinking but could not think of any way to solve the dilemma. He turned around and saw Xue Changshi and rushed over: "Sir, sir, please say something! Where can we escape to? Datong is impossible. I just escaped from Datong. There are so many people waiting to catch us there. If we go back now, we will die. But most of our people are in Datong. If we go somewhere else... we don't have any manpower, so what can we do? Sir, please think of a way..."
Xue Changshi was upset, and after being shaken by him for a while, he felt his heart surging. A fishy and sweet taste filled his throat, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
The third brother was stunned. He looked at him and didn't react for a while. When Xue Changshi's body became limp, he hurriedly helped him sit down on the chair and called him "Sir" in an angry and anxious voice with tears.
They had almost died in Jiujiang before. If Chu Jingan hadn't deliberately spared them a chance to live, they would have been dead by now.
During this process, Xue Changshi has always been very dedicated to these old people who followed him out, and has not abandoned them. They have always obeyed Xue Changshi's orders.
Xue Changshi is their backbone. If something really happens to the backbone, he swallowed his saliva and dared not think about what would happen next.
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Xue Changshi felt much better. When he heard the third brother yelling that he wanted to find a doctor, he laughed and said self-deprecatingly: "Find a doctor? If we really go to find one, is he here to collect our bodies or to treat our illnesses? It's too late to hide your identity now, and you still dare to reveal your whereabouts? Along the way, if it is really as you said, Datong is full of pursuers chasing you, then your identity is obviously exposed. No matter how careful you are, there must be some clues left along the way, right? They can even catch Lu Yuanrong, and now they come to Jingxi to catch the prefect... ... Obviously they know of our existence. There can't be any mistakes at this time. If there is, it will be a disaster!"
Everyone always listened to Xue Changshi's words, and the third brother regarded his words as his will. Now hearing what he said, he became even more worried: "Sir, what do we do when you say that? We can't just sit there and wait for death, right?"
The prefect was originally forced onto the ship by them. Silver could keep him quiet for a while, but it was not more important than his life. For the sake of his life, he would definitely have to give them away.
He sighed and became unusually flustered.
They have been hiding very well over the years, especially in the past two years after escaping. They have been moving forward step by step, operating carefully and cautiously, and little by little they have re-established relationships with those former friends of Chu Jingxing.
They were all in the dark, watching Wei An and Shen Chen first fight against the officials of Dongchang Prefecture and Luo Yuan, and then see them fight with Liu Biping until both sides were almost defeated. Slowly, they set a trap for the Wei family and Shen Chen.
They were very patient, fearing that they would follow in the footsteps of Chu Jingxing, so they were very particular about everything, fearing that they would miss any traces. And they did succeed at the beginning, even Xie Liangcheng, a fox with such a strong suspicion, fell into their trap and was caught by them.
Their subsequent moves were all well thought out. The abduction of Hong He, the daughter of the weaving director of the Yangzhou Weaving Bureau, was also calculated step by step, knowing what consequences would result.
But what had gone wrong, how could they be turned against themselves and now find themselves in this dilemma
Xue Changshi sighed deeply and felt a severe headache, almost unable to think normally. After a long time, he said, "We are the ones who are blindfolded now. We don't know what happened, nor do we know how bad the situation is. At this time, we can't make any mistakes, let alone act rashly. What can we do now? There is no other way except to escape. Pack up your things and leave quickly while the prefect hasn't betrayed us yet and Jingxi hasn't become the same as Datong. As for where to go..."
He thought for a moment, then sighed solemnly, "I can't make a decision right now, but it's better than waiting to die here. You know, they will definitely figure it out by then. We will watch the Xie family's movements in Jingxi, and infer the situation of the Wei family in the capital through the Xie family's ending and reaction. The girl from the Wei family is shrewd and cunning, a hundred times more vicious than ordinary people. Once they catch her, death is not that scary, but I'm afraid life would be worse than death."
Originally, the third brother was very afraid of Wei An. When he heard what Xue Changshi said, he felt even more creepy. He felt the hairs on his body stand up. It took him a while to react. He suppressed the worry and fear in his heart, took a deep breath, and it felt like the bad air he exhaled was the fear. He agreed with Xue Changshi's words, turned around, and hurriedly told his subordinates to pack up quickly.
He urged them urgently. As Xue Changshi said, once they were discovered, it would be difficult for them to die. That girl's methods were no joke! (To be continued)
