Chapter 125 Someone Must Die

A long knife suddenly struck in the direction of Yan Ruomeng. Tang Yuchuan pulled the man down and crouched down, narrowly avoiding it.

"Fuck, seriously, this is much more exciting than a roller coaster."

After seeing the person in front of him clearly, he realized that it was Jin Wuwei who was raising his sword. As for the other soldiers, they all chased He Gong who fled into the mountains.

In such an obvious situation, Yan Ruomeng still didn't understand that today's murderous attempt was probably indispensable to the Queen Mother's handiwork.

"You are very brave to dare to kill the prince. If we go back alive today, you will definitely not survive." Yan Ruomeng tried to persuade the man.

However, diplomacy is not as simple as she thought.

Jin Wuwei laughed wildly, "Therefore, I can't let you two go back. Your Highness, just accept your death."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Ruomeng saw Jin Wuwei's movements stop, his expression frightened, as if he was frozen.

After looking at the man carefully, he discovered that a long arrow penetrated the man from the back.

"Poof!" Another arrow shot through Jin Wuwei's back.

The "Fixing Technique" just now seemed to have failed as the arrow sank in. Jin Wuwei moved his feet, a mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth, and he fell to the ground.

After he fell, Yan Ruomeng followed his gaze and saw that the round woman was waving to them excitedly.

"Manager Yan, Mr. Tang, my father is here to save you."

It was Zhang Lian'er, and she had many officers and soldiers behind her. Seeing that the danger was over, Yan Ruomeng's brain automatically relaxed, and a strong sense of dizziness came over her. Her vision went dark, and she lost consciousness again.

Fortunately, Tang Yuchuan kept holding her, which prevented her from falling to the ground.

Zhang Lian'er ran towards the two of them and asked with a worried look on his face when he saw Yan Ruomeng fainted.

"Mr. Yan, are you okay? Do you want the doctor to take a look?"

Tang Yuchuan carried the man on his back, "Go back first and then ask, lend me a horse."

After stabilizing the people on his back, Tang Yuchuan walked in the direction of the horse, with Zhang Lian'er following behind, running awkwardly.

"The superiors sent people to kill the river workers. My father heard that you might be here. Without thinking, he brought people here. This will kill Jin Wuwei. He dare not stay in Liangzhou and wait at the Qixian Yamen.

Just follow us, Mr. Tang can go there."

"After rescuing the river workers, bring them all over. As for the soldiers sent by the imperial court, not a single one will be left behind."

This is a life-and-death struggle. In this case, it will only be a life-and-death struggle between the enemy and me.

Yan Ruomeng woke up again, and before she even opened her eyes, she heard a heavy sigh.

"Dad, don't make any noise. The doctor said to keep quiet and don't disturb Manager Yan's rest."

"I didn't say anything, it was just a sigh. In order to save the two of you, Xiaguan threw away half of his life's business. Your Highness, you must keep Xiaguan's life." Magistrate Zhang said.

The voice was filled with tears.

Tang Yuchuan said in a deep voice, "You don't need to tell me this."

After knowing that Tang Yuchuan's identity was exposed, Yan Ruomeng didn't care about anything anymore. He opened his eyes and struggled to sit up.

A warm body immediately gathered around him.

"Are you okay?"

Yan Ruomeng supported his body with one hand and rubbed his eyebrows with the other, "I'm fine. I was so nervous just now that my brain fainted due to lack of oxygen. How did your identity get exposed?"

"How long do you think you can hide it?"

Zhang Lian'er also came over and smiled, "Manager Yan, my father has known about it for a long time, but he just didn't tell me. I didn't know about it until I came to rescue you."

"How are Wu Yong and the others? Have they been rescued?"

Tang Yuchuan nodded, but Zhang Lian'er's smiling face darkened.

Yan Ruomeng took a breath and prepared himself mentally, "A few will die."

"Five people died. I heard them crying so miserably. There seemed to be a man named Da Zhou."

"What?" Even though Yan Ruomeng was well prepared, he didn't hold back at this moment. As soon as his body softened, he could barely sit still only by relying on Tang Yuchuan's strength.

Why did he die? That man even told her with a smile in the morning that he would marry a wife and have a child after he sold his first pot of oil.

Seeing her like this, Zhang Lian'er hesitated to speak, but finally took something out of the purse at her waist.

"Wu Yong asked me to give this to you. He said that Dazhou wanted to wait until they got rich and went to the capital to give it to you again, but he couldn't wait any longer."

It was a bracelet made of small conches of different colors. It was small and exquisite, and it was obvious that a lot of thought had been put into it.

Seeing this thing, Yan Ruomeng couldn't hold it back anymore and buried her head in tears.

In the room, Magistrate Zhang sighed again.

"The superiors have ordered that all the people on the river embankment be killed. It's good that you two are still alive. It's not a crime for nobles to kill people."

After saying this, Magistrate Zhang himself laughed twice mockingly.

Yan Ruomeng raised her tear-stained face and said fiercely to Tang Yuchuan, "I want to avenge them."

"I'll report it when I get back." Tang Yuchuan followed.

That night, everyone was immersed in a sad atmosphere.

Wu Yong knew Tang Yuchuan's identity and took the initiative to knock on the door of the house.

"The common people pay homage to His Highness."

"Get up quickly, this is not a court, there is no need to talk about these false etiquette." Tang Yuchuan was still standing by Yan Ruomeng's side, but he just raised his hand towards the person.

Wu Yong did not stand up, but straightened up his upper body, "Your Highness will be a good king, but now there are evil people in the court, and the people are covered by one hand. Before we met Your Highness, we only thought that you were a noble man who only knew about pleasure. Now I know that Your Highness, you

If you have talent and a plan, you can follow it with peace of mind."

"How are you going to follow me?" Tang Yuchuan's appreciation for Wu Yong increased by two points.

"Of course I will join the military camp to recruit talents for His Highness, waiting for the day when you need me."

Tang Yuchuan nodded with satisfaction, but rejected Wu Yong's proposal, "I have a better way, I wonder if you would like to hear it."

"Your Highness, please speak."

"I accidentally discovered an iron mine a few months ago. I want you to recruit people to mine it privately and build a batch of arms and weapons."

Yan Ruomeng suddenly thought of the magnetic mine, "You want to make your own arsenal?"

Tang Yuchuan neither admitted nor denied it. Yan Ruomeng only thought that what he wanted to do was what he thought.

"How much money does the arsenal cost? I'm afraid it won't be enough to bring both of our salaries in. No, I'm still short of six months' salary."

"Aren't there still industries in the Lianlou District?" Tang Yuchuan said with sincere eyes, "There are also the oil-consuming industries you plan to develop, as well as the sea salt industry."

Yan Ruomeng gritted his silver teeth. He was a ruthless person. He had finally arranged a way to make money. He didn't want to be targeted by him long ago. "This money is all mine."

"Well, it's all yours. I'm just borrowing it. Besides, won't all the money be spent on Goudan? I want to conquer the world for him."

Yan Ruomeng curled her lips.

After getting over the sadness of Da Zhou's death, Yan Ruomeng took Zhang Lian'er to the yamen garden.
