"Don't be afraid, Xiao'e is not afraid."

"I won't let anything happen to you."

"Zhang Ma, Wang Ma, Hongyu, take good care of Madam."

After speaking, Xu Jingyi stood up, gritted her teeth, and resolutely threw away her tightly clasped hands, exuding a chivalrous air.

Amidst the panic and astonishment of the other women, the woman tossed her head, brandished a dagger hidden in her sleeve, and lunged straight at Gong Yonggu.

Unwavering in their commitment, a testament to their deep affection and loyalty.

"Go, let's go!"

"Let them go!"

A few steps later, she, a little girl, took advantage of the admiral's unpreparedness and darted up to his shoulder, holding a short-bladed dagger in her hand, pressing it against the bandit general's throat with a clang, and screaming at the top of her lungs.

This sudden turn of events caught not only Gong Yonggu off guard, but also the group of armored soldiers watching from the sidelines, who were completely dumbfounded and had no idea what was going on.

The dagger was so hard to grip that it barely cut through the skin of their necks, drawing blood. Only then did the soldiers gasp and their hands go numb.

"Admiral! Admiral!" Three or five eager soldiers, seeing this, exclaimed in surprise and shouted a reminder.

"Don't move! Don't come any closer!"

Tell them to leave.

"Xiao'e, Hongyu, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and let's go!"

Jingyi was hysterical, her voice cracking and trembling; she was also extremely panicked and frightened.

At this moment, Ye Quan was holding on with sheer willpower.

can.

How could a sheltered young lady like her possibly intimidate Gong Yonggu and his ilk?
After all, the disparity is enormous.

Even if things don't go well, Prince Consort Gong accompanied the emperor south this year, and he's been through several battles and bloodshed, so he's a veteran who's been through many major conflicts.

Why would I be controlled by a mere woman at this critical juncture?!

Immediately, Jingyi began to manipulate her trembling hands.

With a straight back and a hammer, his right arm clamped down with his large hand, his thick fingers already fearless of the blade, gripping it tightly.

"what--"

Jingyi was horrified and in pain as blood gushed from her mouth and nose as she was knocked off her body by the hammer.

She couldn't hold onto the short blade in her hand; Gong Yonggu forcefully disarmed her and angrily threw it into the floor tiles.

"Damn it."

"You little wench, you're asking for trouble!"

Cursing viciously, Gong clenched his right fist and stepped forward.

What other opportunities does Xu Jingyi have to use her phone?
With a quick bend and a sharp lift, Jingyi was lifted up so high that her feet couldn't even touch the ground.

In her final struggle, she was grabbed by the thief and held firmly in place. Jingyi became hysterical, her face pale with fright, and she could no longer see anything.

With her eyes closed, she struggled to break free and thrashed forward.

In court, the matter was thoroughly humiliated and severely punished by Gong Yonggu.

At this moment, the bandit general Gong appeared even more furious and exasperated.

Unable to bear the woman's antics, he raised his leg and delivered a powerful kick to Jingyi's lower abdomen.

This kick was powerful and heavy, no less so than the one he had just delivered to Qin Jing.

Qin Jing couldn't withstand the pain; he suffered internal organ damage and even vomited blood.

Let alone this delicate young woman with fair skin?
bang——

With that kick, Jingyi sent the person flying several feet backward.

He silently endured it, unable to utter a sound of alarm.

His spine scraped against the ground, almost touching Xiao'e and Hongyu's feet, before the force finally stopped.

Before he could recover, he suddenly felt a sweet taste in his chest and vomited two mouthfuls of blood.

His face constricted, the pain had penetrated deep into his lungs, and the veins on his forehead bulged out.

Jingyi's eyes were bloodshot, her expression was dazed, and she finally succumbed to her injuries.

She raised her hand with difficulty, reaching out towards Xiao'e, her lips moving as if she wanted to say something.

However, after exerting all his strength, he could no longer endure it.

His hand froze for a moment, and then he completely lost all life. His injuries were severe, and he was on the verge of death, collapsing unconscious at the feet of Yu'e, Hongyu, and the Second Granny.

"Jingyi—"

"Jingyi—"

Flowers are falling and flying all over the sky, who will pity them when their color and fragrance are gone?
The gossamer is soft and fluttering in the spring, and the fluff is lightly dipped in the embroidered curtain.

A young woman in her boudoir laments the passing of spring, her heart filled with sorrow from which she has no outlet.
She takes a flower hoe and steps out from behind the embroidered curtain, reluctant to tread on fallen petals as she comes and goes.
The willows and elms are fragrant, regardless of the falling peaches and plums;
If the peach and plum can be sent again next year, who will be in the boudoir next year?
The fragrant nest has been built in March, and the swallows in Liang Jian are too ruthless!
Next year when the flowers bloom again, we may be able to peck at them, but who knows that people will be gone, the beams will be empty, and the nest will be overturned.
"No, no, Jingyi—"

Seeing Jingyi faint and barely breathing, Yu'e was overcome with grief. Recalling the past with her sisters, she was filled with sorrow.

He let out a loud cry, unable to contain his emotions.

Suddenly, all her strength was exhausted, and she could no longer hold on. She collapsed into Hongyu's arms and fell into a coma.

As a result, the scene became even more chaotic and tragic.

The women, maids, servants, and miscellaneous men were all in a chaotic mess, and Gong Yonggu was also frowning at the sight.

but!

Everything that is due will eventually be repaid, and what is due will eventually arrive!
At this very moment, before the thief could even seize the opportunity and make a show of force, what progress could be made?

Suddenly, the sound of horses galloping outside the gate and the clashing of swords filled the air, startling everyone into a sudden and dramatic turn of events!
"Report——"

"Report! The rebels are attacking!"

A sudden, urgent sound entered the house.

Upon hearing this, Gong Yonggu's hair stood up abruptly, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"what?!"

"Come on, Jinnan, you take our team and bring these families with you."

"The rest of you, follow me and charge out!"

"kill!"

Upon receiving the order, the soldiers in the courtyard swarmed forward, swords drawn, shouts of battle erupting as they rushed toward the gate of the mansion.

However, just as that subordinate general from Jinan was about to step forward and seize Yu'e with his knife, intending to follow her away, he...

Whoosh whoosh—

Several skilled fighters jumped down from the roof ridge.

The leader, having landed steadily, blocked Yu'e's path.

"on!"

"The general has ordered us to protect the lady. Charge!"

The person who spoke was none other than Gu Changting.

At this moment, Xiao led several hundred brave cavalrymen in a fierce battle outside the house to create momentum.

Meanwhile, Changting led a dozen skilled martial artists, scaling the walls and rooftops. Just then, amidst the chaos, they flanked the Duke's family and jumped down from behind to ensure the safety of the women and servants, preventing the desperate enemy from taking drastic measures.

After about fifteen minutes, the situation inside and outside the Huang residence was stabilized, and the crisis was completely under control.

Xiao's garrison achieved a great victory. Gong Yonggu faced Xiao Langjiang in battle, but his skills were inferior. He suffered multiple knife wounds and ultimately suffered a crushing defeat, being captured and imprisoned.

Of the imperial guards he commanded, some had deserted, some had died, and very few remained.

That night, elsewhere.

Just as Xiao was about to save his wife, the jinxed group that was escorting Liu Wenbing to prison also managed to rescue him and bring him back.

According to Xiao Jingchuan's original intention, once Qiu Zhizhong was freed from prison, he did not dare to stop for a moment. He immediately led the Mourning Star Guard to regain control of the Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters in order to stabilize the situation in the city and arrest the key officials involved in the case.

More good news is coming.

Sometimes push the child, sometimes push the child.

At Beiguan, Yuan Ping not only effectively controlled the entry and exit of the North Gate.

Moreover, troops from the former Huzhou and Yuhang areas also rushed to reinforce the area day and night. Within an hour or so, about two thousand cavalrymen had arrived.

Following the lead of the ancestor, he also urgently addressed the needs of the military governor.

As night fell, the central army had reached the vicinity of Yuhang.

Xu Jizu, worried about the safety of the military governor, took the lead and risked his life to lead two thousand light cavalry to Hangzhou North Gate at half past dawn, where they met and reunited with Yuan Ping.

Thus, the upheaval in Hangzhou, which lasted only a day and two nights, was largely stabilized, and the situation was brought under control. (End of Chapter)
