Reborn Daughter

Chapter 257
Ding Zi pursed her lips tightly, and her heart sank. She knew Lan Qingling's thoughts very well. It wasn't that they were too careful, but there were some things that should be imagined first: "Are you familiar with the officials and sons of Mingcheng?"

"Hmph, I'd rather not know each other. Fame is not as good as water. The distance between the two cities is only one sky and one earth."

"Corrupt officials?"

Lan Qingling pursed her lips: "Faint, he is my mother's younger brother. He was ignorant and incompetent since he was a child. The emperor saw my mother die early and gave him a favor. His name is Wu Shuzhe. one."

It was disrespectful for Lan Qingling to criticize his uncle like this, but Ding Zi sighed a little when he saw the hatred in his eyes.Whose family has no incompetent relatives, Princess An's natal family is still there, but this younger brother is a brother of a compatriot, the relationship is incomparable.

It's just that if Wu Shuzhe and Lan Qingling in Mingcheng are such relatives, Ding Zi doesn't worry too much, things will not be too bad, and their road has already passed the boundary of Liucheng, and they are almost at Mingcheng. Even if you want to do something, I'm afraid it will not be easy!

Who knows how long Ding Zi's heart has not been put down for a while, suddenly the guard's angry shout sounded outside: "Who is it, ah!"

"Pfft!"

"Ping pong, bang bang!"

There was a chaotic sound.

Lan Qingling immediately reflected, opened the curtain of the car, and jumped out, the queen mother also woke up suddenly, her eyes were still bright and sharp, it was not like the one who just woke up, Ding Zi opened the curtain of the car, but saw Suddenly some people dressed as civilians appeared outside, and they were crowded together to get on the horse.

The guards saw that they were civilians, so they didn't dare to make a move and killed them. The pushing between the two would naturally cause damage. The civilians looked chaotic and jumped at every opportunity, and many of them rushed to the side of the Queen Mother's carriage.

A team of guards led by Lan Qingling quickly took their positions and surrounded the Queen Mother's carriage. Lan Qingling stood in the middle and scolded the common people who were rushing over: "Stop, the Queen Mother's phoenix is ​​in front of you!" , who dares to take a step forward, don't blame me for being ruthless under the sword."

The few commoners were startled for a moment, then knelt on the ground and cried bitterly: "Help the queen mother, help the queen mother, give me something to eat."

"Queen Mother, I haven't eaten for three days. I'm dying of hunger. Queen Mother, you are so benevolent. You are Guanyin Bodhisattva. Please give us a bite of food."

When the queen mother heard this, she raised the curtain of the car and looked out, but saw three or four people wearing dirty and ragged clothes that were no better than beggars' clothes, knelt and kowtowed, their complexions were sallow, and they looked like people who were suffering .

The Queen Mother softened her heart, and then looked at those who were being dragged by the guards to run this way, all of them were dressed in dirty clothes, not in a good mood, and they were yelling and didn't know what they were talking about, as if where Fleeing out.

"Where are you from, how do you live in such a dilapidated way?"

One of them immediately replied: "Go back to the empress dowager, we are the people of Mingcheng, and the grass people deliver goods from the city to the outer city. When I went back to the city a few days ago, I found that the city gate was closed. I don't know what happened. What happened to the grass people?" Knocking means no one opens the city gate for the grassroots. The city gate is closed from morning to night, and the grassroots have a home and cannot return. Those who live in the city like the grassroots but cannot return to the city, we have all the money. The journey is over, and it will take a few days to go to other cities. We may starve to death before we go far. The Empress Dowager has no choice but to ask the Empress Dowager to give me something to eat."

The empress dowager's eyes were a little moved, and her face was even a little angry. What is Wu Shuzhe doing, closing the city gates in broad daylight to prevent the circulation of the surrounding city residents?For the empress dowager's trip this time, how could the emperor give such an order? After thinking about it, it must be Wu Shuzhe's doing something wrong, and it is definitely not a good thing!

The queen mother was about to get angry when Lan Qingling suddenly asked: "Are you all going out of the city to buy and deliver goods?"

"Yes, we are all in a hurry to return to the city now, and we hope the Queen Mother will order the opening of the city."

Ding Zi also interjected: "All of them are buying and delivering goods, and all of them are middle-aged and middle-aged men. Could it be that the men in your city agreed to go out of the city together? What a coincidence!"

The queen mother also noticed something was wrong: "Catch them quickly!"

The few people who were kneeling suddenly jumped out, rushed over with swords and daggers from their waists, arms and legs, and immediately stabbed the surrounding guards who hadn't reacted to death.

Ding Zi yelled: "Escort, there are assassins, hurry up and escort." After saying that, she pushed the Queen Mother into the carriage, and she immediately took out the short dagger she had hidden in advance from the sole of her shoe, and held it in her hand to protect her chest.

"Looking for death!" Those assassins who had turned into civilians had already scattered around the guards. At this time, they all jumped up and killed most of the guards who hadn't reacted at the fastest speed.

Lan Qingling shouted coldly: "Lan Zhuo, you lead people to guard the queen mother, and the others will follow me to kill the assassin."

"Master!" Lan Zhuo yelled immediately, but he could only obey the order. He guarded the Queen Mother's carriage strictly, and could only observe Lan Qingling's safety with his eyes. In the most dangerous situation, Lan Zhuo would definitely rush forward go.

Ding Zi was also relieved at this time, Lan Qingling's first team was all good players, but unfortunately the opponent had prepared in advance and killed many guards in the Queen Mother's team, and the number of them was also many times that of Lan Qingling. Qingling led the team and couldn't break out of the encirclement.

Not only that, the group of assassins saw that Lan Qingling was more difficult to deal with, and they had already separated a group of people to drive towards the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother was sitting in the carriage, with boundless anger that could not be contained. Someone dared to assassinate her, which was definitely an unbearable insult to her. At the same time, the empress dowager became angry with the person behind it.

But the Queen Mother didn't say a word, she just sat quietly, without the fear of ordinary assassination targets.

At this time, the assassin was approaching, and the number of Lan Qingling's remaining team plus Lan Zhuo's was no more than ten people, while the other party had more than 20 or nearly 30 people. The person had already directly hit Ding Zi who was staying outside the carriage.

Ding Zi's face was full of fear, holding the dagger in his backhand, and his eyes were like leopards hunting their prey, shining with deep black light.

"Kill! Everyone here will be killed, no one will be left behind!" The person who rushed up immediately shouted, and the four of them raised their swords and stabbed Ding Zi in four directions. Seeing this, Madam Liu immediately yelled, her heart skipped a beat. She couldn't fall down, she could already foresee what kind of blood hole Ding Zi would be stabbed into.

Who knew that Ding Zi kicked the car board hard with his feet, and flew away to dodge, and turned around, drew a semi-circular arc in the air, jumped directly behind one of the assassins, and "poof" the dagger quickly pierced The man's heart, the man's eyes widened, he turned his head in disbelief, spit out a mouthful of blood, and fell backwards with his head up.

"She knows martial arts, everyone be careful! Ah!"
