Cao Teng didn't know that he could escape. In fact, it was Chen Yang who let the water go. He thought he had this strength, and he was a little happy while being frightened.

After falling outside, he heard the sound of shouting for killing from inside, so he didn't dare to stay any longer, and the people who brought him ran away immediately, as fast as he wanted.

After walking far away, the sound of chasing and killing behind him stopped.

"I didn't expect you to come out alive."

Ma Chao just appeared from the alley next to him.

"Ma Chao, the person who attacked me just now was really you!"

Cao Teng thought of something at this moment, and his anger soared into the sky, and his anger could not be contained.

Ma Chao shook his head and said, "I don't know what you're talking about. I can't sleep tonight. I just went out for a walk. I seem to see someone chasing you? Then I won't get involved."

He laughed twice and left cheerfully.

Cao Teng was so angry that he almost wanted to kill Ma Chao desperately, but he was worried that there would be a fight later, the commotion would be too loud, and it would have a bad influence on himself, so he could only temporarily put this idea aside.

Back to the hiding place, all the hidden guards dispersed.

During this period of time, Cao Teng prepared multiple identities for himself in Chang'an, and all of them are still in normal use, so he immediately changed to another one.

The next morning, he used this identity to look around the city. The city guards continued to patrol. Of course, it was because there was too much noise last night. Although it was part of the plan, it was impossible to do nothing. .

Cao Teng didn't dare to stay outside for too long, so he went back soon. Thinking about what he saw last night, he decided to ask someone to go back and tell Cao Cao first.

"Shangyuan Festival!"

Cao Teng muttered.

The Lantern Festival is coming soon.

The commotion a few days ago seems to have been forgotten by the people of Chang'an. On the day of Shangyuan Festival, the whole city resumed its lively situation again.

Unknowingly, in the evening, the bustle began, and the full lanterns and festoons during the Spring Festival were restored.

The Shangyuan Festival is an important festival for the ancients. There is a curfew in normal times, but on this night, the curfew will be lifted with a special exception. There are lights everywhere outside, iron trees and silver flowers, and it is very lively.

At this time, a small figure walked out of the palace gate.

Ru'er ran out bouncing around, seeing the bustle and grandeur outside, her eyes lit up, she looked around happily, and then trotted all the way to the crowded place.

"Miss, let's go back!"

Zhong Yan followed behind Ru'er, with a worried expression on her face, and said: "If you let Da Furen know, you will be punished, there are still so many people outside, it's not safe."

Ru'er jumped up and said: "Sister Yan'er, don't worry, the whole Chang'an is my father's place, there must be no danger, not to mention I have Sister Yan'er with you, it's so lively outside, it's really fun, I'll go back sooner, Mom won't find out."

She took Zhong Yan's hand and said happily: "Sister Yan'er, hurry up, there are a lot of people over there!"

Although Zhong Yan knew what today's task was, she was still very worried and cautious.

However, he saw that there were many passers-by in the disguise of their female soldiers, who had blended into the bustle ahead of time, so he let go of his worries and followed Ru'er to run around.

After strolling around the lively place, Ru'er was so happy that she almost flew up, as if she forgot that she still had tasks today.

"Miss, don't go too fast, follow me!"

Zhong Yan said again.

"It's okay, sister Yan'er, come quickly, it's my father's place anyway."

Ru'er said happily.

Among the crowd, Cao Teng and Ma Chao stared at Ru'er at the same time.

They also pretended to be passers-by and walked around. Surprisingly, they even cooperated tacitly again without confronting each other.

At this moment, Ma Chao took the initiative to walk towards Cao Teng.

When the two sides met, he said softly: "Create an opportunity to separate her from that woman."

Cao Teng understood what Ma Chao meant.

At first glance, Zhong Yan was no ordinary servant. She was wearing a long sword and dressed in a strong suit. She looked like a well-trained master. With her around, it would be difficult for them to succeed.

The two sides quickly started to fight, creating a flow of people, directly flocking to Ru'er, Zhong Yan and the others.

Ru'er rolled her eyes and took the initiative to walk inside. Zhong Yan saw this and shouted impatiently: "Miss, come to me quickly."

"The opportunity is here!"

Cao Teng gave a look to the person next to him.

They understood in an instant, and walked directly to Ru'er. The two strong men cut off all the escape routes for Ru'er, and they stretched out their hands to grab him.

Although Ru'er is a bit courageous and says she is not afraid, she will inevitably feel flustered when she sees these things really about to happen. Seeing that they are going to catch her, she gritted her teeth, took out the prepared dagger from her bosom and stabbed past.

The person walking in front of Ru'er was stabbed by surprise, and his hands were immediately covered with blood, and the person behind immediately followed suit, reaching out to grab Ru'er's neck.

Although Ru'er panicked, but remembered what Aunt Yaruo had taught her, she immediately lowered her body, turned around and stabbed the dagger out again, hitting the stomach of the person behind her.

The man screamed in pain, covered his stomach and stepped back, but there were too many people at this time, and he had to move forward again when the people behind him squeezed, and then he daggered until it had no handle.

Ru'er was stunned for a while, looking at the blood in her hand, she couldn't react anymore, it was the first time she did such a thing, she was very flustered, trembling all over, without any confidence.

"waste!"

Cao Teng cursed angrily. He didn't expect one of Chen Yang's daughters to be so difficult. He wanted to take the initiative to bring someone to arrest her.

As soon as he moved, the hidden guards hiding in the crowd also started to attack.

Ru'er stood there in a panic, not knowing what to do next, and then realized that she was too naughty, did not follow her father's rules, and did not let sister Yan'er protect herself.

However, when they were in a panic, Cao Teng and others approached and were about to strike. Seeing that the eldest lady was about to be captured, the hidden guards in the crowd immediately appeared and took out the short knife hidden in their clothes, and stabbed Cao Teng's hidden guards .

Zhong Yan worked hard and finally squeezed up, immediately hugged Ru'er in her arms to protect her, drew her sword out of its sheath with a "clang", and stabbed Cao Teng swiftly.

Seeing this scene, Cao Teng had a bad idea in his heart, that is, they were fooled, and the Shangyuan Festival was actually a trap.

"Get out!"

Cao Teng yelled.

However, it was too late to retreat now. Two-thirds of these pedestrians were soldiers and shadows inserted by Chen Yangan. They all showed up and completely surrounded Cao Teng inside.

"Killed!"

Of course, there were also ordinary people who saw this scene and shouted in panic.

"Here to you!"

Zhong Yan took Ru'er's hand and immediately pulled it away.
