After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure

Chapter 465 - 465 Split up

465 Split up

Xiao Hanzheng had trained many people and deployed them to several places across the county.

Among them, some were in charge of investigation throughout the entire county.

When the person saw the signal flare, his expression changed and he went to the county office as fast as he could to report the matter.

Xiao Hanzheng’s expression also changed when he heard this.

He left his work and immediately rushed to the mountain with his men.

He didn’t understand why his mother and sister were in danger, and why four secret guards couldn’t handle it.

He trained those four guards.

Be it their combat strength or their ability to adapt, they were ranked at the top.

It was not a problem for any one of them to fight against three people alone, unless they encountered a very elite killer or death warrior.

However, according to the current situation in the northern border, be it Prince Jin, those from the previous dynasty, or the Ge Kingdom, they should not target his mother and sister.

Something unexpected must have happened.

He thought as he sped up his horse.

On the mountain on the other side.

The leader of the men of sacrifice and his team’s journey was delayed, but Mother Xiao and the other two were a little unlucky.

They suddenly encountered a large wild boar.

Seeing that someone had entered its territory, it acted as if it was going to attack.

Seeing this, Xiao Baili immediately lashed out with her whip.

“Mother, carry Prince Yi and run forward. I’ll stop him.”

Mother Xiao looked worried. “I’ll go with you.”

As she spoke, she was about to put down Prince Yi.

Xiao Baili was anxious. “Mother, you should run with Prince Yi. Else, you would attract the wild boars’ attention and I’ll get distracted.”

When Mother Xiao heard this, she gritted her teeth. “Okay, then be careful.

“After dealing with the wild boars, don’t come looking for me. Just hide and run down the mountain to find your brother.”

This mountain wasn’t small, and it wouldn’t be easy for her daughter to find her after she scattered.

If they didn’t encounter any danger, it would be better to act separately.

Xiao Baili nodded. “Okay, then you must be careful too!”

As soon as she finished speaking, the wild boar rushed up without hesitation.

The wild boar smelled the blood on Prince Yi, so it rushed toward Mother Xiao.

Xiao Baili immediately took out the dagger hidden in her boots and took the initiative to whip it.

The wild boar hissed in pain as she whipped it. It turned around and charged at her.

Mother Xiao knew that her daughter’s current martial strength was not low.

Even if she couldn’t kill a wild boar, it shouldn’t be a problem for her to escape alone.

So she gritted his teeth and continued to run forward with Prince Yi on her back.

She only had one thought in her mind. She must get Prince Yi out of here alive.

Then, she used all her strength and didn’t run in one direction.

Instead, she kept changing directions and quickly entered the deep mountains.

She didn’t stop and kept running.

This situation stimulated her body’s fight or flight response.

She didn’t know how long she had been running, but her legs felt like lead and she couldn’t run anymore.

She found an empty space and put Prince Yi down.

She also sat limply at the side, panting.

At that moment, the unconscious Liang Yulin slowly opened his eyes.

He had regained some consciousness just now.

He smelled a faint fragrance and felt that the journey had been bumpy. He could tell that someone was carrying him.

However, he was seriously injured and kept struggling to wake up.

Only then did he finally break free from the drowsy consciousness and open his eyes.

He turned his head and saw Mother Xiao panting and blushing.

He gradually regained his consciousness and remembered what had happened before.

He understood that Mother Xiao had saved him.

She was also the one who had been carrying him while running.

His voice was hoarse as he asked, “Where are we? ”

Mother Xiao was shocked when she heard that.

She turned around and saw that Prince Yi had woken up. She was relieved and no longer so afraid and nervous.

She looked around and shook her head in confusion. “I don’t know where we are either.”

She was afraid that those men of sacrifice would catch up, so she ran around without any order.

This way, it would be difficult for them to track them.

Because of the time constraint, she didn’t have time to make a mark.

She really didn’t know where he was. It felt like a deep mountain.

Liang Yulin also understood.

She had carried him on her back and had run here without paying attention to her direction.

“Tell me what happened just now,” he said calmly.

Previously, his guards had held back the men of sacrifice while he rode out of the encirclement.

However, just as he was about to reach the county, he encountered a second wave of ambushes.

He was forced to change his direction and run toward the mountain.

However, he was shot in the back by a senior archer.

When he reached the foot of the mountain, he could only abandon his horse and run up the mountain with the last of his strength, just for a chance of survival.

In fact, he didn’t have much hope.

This time, Prince Jin had obviously put in a lot of effort and wanted to kill him.

He had made ample preparations, and the people sent to kill him were the elites from the men of sacrifice.

From the looks of it, they were still the most powerful elite men of sacrifice his late-father’s command when he was still in power.

He only felt that it was ironic.

No wonder his imperial mother had suggested that she should never be buried with the late emperor.

She didn’t even pay her respects to him once, saying that out of sight, out of mind.

It was the kind that even looking at the late emperor’s memorial tablet made her feel disgusted.

He and his brother didn’t feel uncomfortable about his mother’s actions.

The pain and danger that the three of them had suffered all those years were all caused by the late emperor’s indulgence.

If it wasn’t for the sake of filial piety, he and his brother actually didn’t want to pay respects to the late emperor.

His royal brother’s men had found out that the late emperor’s most beloved imperial consort had kept many male companions in Prince Jin’s residence.

He really hoped that his father, who was in the underworld, would find out and die of anger again.

Mother Xiao stopped panting and roughly told Prince Yi what had happened.

After Liang Yulin heard this, he was once more certain that it was the men of sacrificed who had pursued him.

He sat up with some effort and cupped his fists to Mother Xiao. “Thank you, Madam, for saving my life. As long as we can get out of here alive, I will definitely repay you.”

Mother Xiao waved her hand. “No need. Since we’ve met you, we can’t just leave you to die.”

“I don’t know if we’ve managed to shake off those people,” she said worriedly.

She also wondered how his daughter and the secret guards were doing.

Liang Yulin saw how worried she was and comforted her, “They should have left us behind, otherwise they would have caught up to us.

“But we can’t stay here for too long. We’ll rest for a while and move to another place.”

He felt that the wound on his back didn’t hurt as much as before, and he had regained some strength.

He marveled at the good effect of Xiao Hanzheng’s medicine.

He was indeed the disciple of the divine doctor.

Mother Xiao nodded. “Okay!”

She had never liked to make her own decisions, so when Prince Yi woke up, she felt a sense of security.

After the two of them rested for a while, Mother Xiao wanted to carry Prince Yi and continue walking.

Prince Yi had lost too much blood and was seriously injured. He couldn’t walk much on his own.

He could only let Mother Xiao carry him and continue walking.
