Old Chief pulled the elderly woman and escaped through the back door. The most urgent thing right now was to find Liulang quickly. Only he could stop Marquis Xuanping.
But just as they crossed the threshold of the back door, they saw Chang Jing standing in front of them with a murderous look.
Old Chief gasped!
Turning back now was impossible either. Marquis Xuanping was guarding the front door.
"That, little brother, can we discuss this?" Old Chief smiled wryly and without warning, he suddenly ran to embrace Chang Jing while saying to the elderly woman, "Go! Go find Liulang! He's at Lin boy's house!"
Lin Chengye's house wasn’t that far, it was only a quarter of an hour's walk away.
But how could Old Chief hold back an a.s.sa.s.sin like Chang Jing?
Chang Jing directly picked him up. He was not interested in people other than the target. After throwing Old Chief aside, he stretched out his hand to kill the elderly woman.
All he had to do was grab the scruff of the elderly woman's neck and break it with a single twist.
At this critical juncture, a small figure flashed over and stood in front of the elderly woman. She raised her small arm, and blocked Chang Jing's arm.
Chang Jing had used his right hand, but no one knew that his dominant hand was actually his left hand. He swung his left hand and slashed it at Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao abruptly received this strike, and the tremendous force shook the two of them apart, forcing both of them two steps backward.
Chang Jing looked at Gu Jiao in astonishment, then looked at his own hands. Huh? The other party could actually take on his strikes.
Gu Jiao: Er... Half of my arm is going numb. Where did such an expert pop out from?
"Grandaunt, Granduncle, you leave first!" Gu Jiao stood in Chang Jing’s way and told the two of them.
Old Chief didn't care about being polite at the moment as he pulled the elderly woman and ran for Lin Chengye's residence. Of course, he didn't forget to remind Chang Jing, "She's Marquis Xuanping's daughter-in-law! You are not allowed to touch her!"
This remark unexpectedly worked; Chang Jing's murderous intent was halved in an instant.
Chang Jing's martial arts skills were much higher than those of the martial masters in the martial arts school. Even with half of his murderous aura withdrawn, it was still difficult for Gu Jiao to defeat him. Of course, it wasn’t so easy for Chang Jing to get rid of Gu Jiao either.
The two of them engaged in a fierce fight.
Old Chief kept running with the elderly woman. The reason why he could still run at this age was mainly due to Gu Jiao's good daily conditioning. Both of their bodies were much stronger than before. Old Chief even vaguely felt that both of them had more black hair nowadays.
However, when it rains it pours. Although they managed to get rid of Marquis Xuanping and Chang Jing, they ran into a group of black-clad men with their faces covered.
The black-clad men blocked the entrance of the alley.
In order to get to Lin Chengye's house as soon as possible, Old Chief led the elderly woman to a short cut, which was quiet and where almost no one pa.s.sed by, which also meant that there were almost no officials patrolling nearby.
It was over. It was over.
What was having a wolf in front and a tiger at the back meant? This was it.
Whether being captured by the other party right now or being killed by Chang Jing, neither was good ah.
"You, who are you?" Old Chief asked warily.
More than a dozen black-clad men shuffled out of the way to make way for a carriage parked behind them. At that moment, the curtain of the carriage was lifted and Grand Preceptor Zhuang stepped down from the carriage.
Grand Preceptor Zhuang, with his hands in his wide sleeves, looked arrogant and calm. He paced up to the two of them and took a look at the elderly woman and Old Chief with a cold look in his eyes, "So it's you!"
He knew there was something fishy about the old man he had seen the last time he went in Bishui Alley. It turned out he was an acquaintance!
No wonder he acted so strangely back then, closing the gate in a fl.u.s.ter and smearing dirt on his face before talking to people!
"What are you doing here?"
And still with the Empress Dowager?
Before he resigned from his post, he fought to the death with the Empress Dowager for two dynasties, from the reign of the former Emperor to the current Emperor's reign, and it was no exaggeration to say that their relations.h.i.+p was that of sworn enemies.
But now, both of them appeared in one place at the same time, and they actually looked close!
There should be something else that he wasn’t aware of, but right now there was no way to think about it. The most important thing was to bring the Empress Dowager back!
Grand Preceptor Zhuang's eyes rested on Old Chief's hand holding the elderly woman's wrist, and his expression changed sharply as he shouted, "How presumptuous!"
Was the Empress Dowager's phoenix body something that could be desecrated by an old man like him?! Not to mention pulling her wrist, he didn’t have the right to pull even the hem of her skirt!
Old Chief withdrew his hand guiltily.
Grand Preceptor Zhuang did not dare to speak harshly to the elder woman. He said gently, "Sister, go back with this older brother."
The elderly woman gave him a disgusted look, "Get lost."
Grand Preceptor Zhuang：“…”
Grand Preceptor Zhuang took a deep breath and reminded himself that the Empress Dowager had lost her memory. Her words were not her original intention, nor was it the Empress Dowager’s imperial decree.
When the Empress Dowager recalled her ident.i.ty, he would surely forgive what he was doing today.
He turned to the black-clad men and commanded, "Take the Empress Dowager away! As for that man…" He glanced at Old Chief. "Get rid of him!"
A country's Empress Dowager actually had an affair with another man. Once this scandal got out, being pointed at by thousands of people was nothing. What he feared was that her reputation and status couldn’t be preserved.
The Emperor had long been looking for an excuse to depose Empress Dowager Zhuang, and he simply couldn’t give the Emperor any opportunity to take advantage of.
Old Chief coldly said, "Zhuang Boyong, you're crazy! You want to kill people in public?" One after another, all of them were simply not taking human life seriously!
Grand Preceptor Zhuang replied lightly, "You tried to a.s.sa.s.sinate the Empress Dowager. This official is merely having an a.s.sa.s.sin killed. What's wrong about it?"
Having said that, he made a gesture to the black-clad men to kill and then completely ignored Old Chief.
