Lu Heng's decision surprised Qin Yining.
But on second thought, Lu Heng and Pang Xiao were enemies to begin with. It was reasonable for him to capture her and interrogate her about the whereabouts of the treasure.
Qin Yining was not disappointed. In the past, she was still friends with Lu Heng. But now that they were on opposite sides, and Lu Heng's feelings for her were gradually revealed, Qin Yining knew very well that the relationship between her and Lu Heng could not be the same as before.
Seeing that the men were about to reach her, Qin Yining knew that she could not escape. Although she was afraid and her palms were sweating, she knew what she had to do.
Perhaps when she gradually fell into a struggle, she had already mentally prepared herself. When she was kidnapped to the Tatan, she had already told herself that anything could happen in the future. She was different from ordinary women. The position she was in did not allow her to show any weakness.
The men arrived in front of her and pushed Qin Yining into the woods.
Xiao Xue's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. She shouted angrily, "Let her go! You are a bunch of cowards, cowards! What kind of man are you to bully a weak woman? If you have the guts, come at me! "
Lu Heng watched Qin Yining's back as she was pushed away. He was distraught. His fists clenched his robe so tightly that the veins on his fists were bulging.
He had made a decision in a fit of anger. But why did he feel a piercing pain in his heart?
Xiao Xue's scolding was right next to his ear. Lu Heng became more and more irritated. He angrily kicked Xiao Xue's shoulder.
"Shut up!"
Xiao Xue flipped over from the kick. But she kept cursing, "Coward, you ball-less piece of trash! You bullied a weak woman and you still have the nerve to talk about your feelings. Don't disgust me! "
Lu Heng gritted his teeth. His eyes were wide open in anger. His blood was boiling. His limbs, bones, and even the back of his head felt like they were burning.
"Shut up! Shut up! "Lu Heng kicked Xiao Xue's chest and abdomen.
Xiao Xue hurriedly bent her body to dodge, but she didn't stop cursing.
His voice echoed in the forest. Lu Heng's anger, which had been suppressed for many days, exploded at this moment. He kicked, beat, and cursed back. The scene was a mess, and almost no sound could be heard from the forest.
At this moment, the sound of something breaking through the air could be heard. A crisp 'pa' sound was heard. The moment Lu Heng lowered his head, the guard standing behind him fell to the ground while clutching his chest and spitting out a mouthful of blood. If Lu Heng had not suddenly lowered his head, the one who would have fallen would be him!
"Quick, protect the Patriarch! Ambush! "
"It's from the forest!"
"There's an ambush in the woods!"
…
The sound of the bullets piercing through the air could be heard. Although they were bullets, their lethality was no less than that of a crossbow.
Lu Heng's attendants protected him as they dodged left and right. Everyone was hit by a lot of bullets. Some of the bullets that hit their arms could even break their bones.
For a moment, Lu Heng was surrounded by groans and cries of pain.
Lu Heng gritted his teeth and roared, "Who's there! Come out! "
The bullets finally stopped flying. Lu Heng had just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard rustling sounds in the forest.
It was the sound of footsteps, and there were quite a few of them!
In the blink of an eye, more than a hundred guards rushed over. The dozens of people in the lead were holding slingshots. It was Ji Dashun and the others.
Qin Yining followed behind them under the protection of Jing Zhe and Ji Yun. The people who had escorted Qin Yining into the forest were nowhere to be seen. They had obviously been captured.
"I didn't expect the great Zhong Yibo to do such a despicable thing," Xu Weizhi mocked. "I'm sure no one in your residence knows about Lu Boye's actions, right?"
The guards around Lu Heng were all tense and ready for battle. They seemed to know their limits after comparing their strength with the other party's.
Lu Heng could also see that although the other party didn't have a lot of people, the guards were all well-trained. His men might not be a match for them in a direct confrontation.
Hearing Xu Weizhi's mockery, Lu Heng suppressed his anger and smiled. "So what if you know about this? So what if you don't know about it? Do you know that I'm still the head of the Lu family? You can see how despicable my actions are. It's enough that the people around me understand. Why should I explain myself to you? "
"Ha! Lu Boye's shamelessness is top-notch. If you were the same in your actions, tsk tsk … "
Xie Yue hadn't finished speaking when the surrounding crowd roared with laughter.
Lu Heng was annoyed, but the disparity in strength was too great. He didn't have the ability to compete, so he could only endure and find an opportunity to leave this place. He definitely couldn't throw an egg at a rock.
Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi's conversation had already angered Lu Heng so much that his expression turned ugly.
But even so, it wasn't enough to quell their anger.
If they had arrived a moment later, wouldn't the princess consort have …
They were ordered to follow the princess consort and protect the princess consort's safety. But if something happened to the princess consort under their watch, how could they face Wang Ye in the future?!
"Aren't your twisted words and twisted logic top-notch?"
Lu Heng sneered. "If Pang Zhixi hadn't colluded with the Qin Clan couple, pocketed the treasure for themselves, and then turned around to bite me, Your Majesty wouldn't have treated the Lu family like this. How could he not take revenge for the extermination of his clan?! "
"Hahaha!" Xie Yue laughed loudly. "Lu Boye, do you think I'm a fool? The Lu family's extermination was also the result of deceiving the emperor. You hid the treasure, and now you're making a false accusation that it was Wang Ye and the princess consort's handiwork. You did it yourself, but you pushed the blame to others. You're too responsible!"
"You!"
Lu Heng gritted his teeth.
Lu Heng's attendant whispered, "Master, don't fall into their trap. The other party is probably waiting for a large number of people to arrive. Let's leave quickly. Otherwise, once their reinforcements arrive, it'll be harder for us to escape!"
Lu Heng's heart quivered. His anger and resentment were instantly suppressed, and he quickly came to his senses.
If he didn't take them away now, was he going to wait for a large number of people to arrive and be unable to escape?
After making up his mind, Lu Heng quickly turned around and made a hand gesture.
The guards beside him got into position and held their weapons. They glared fiercely at Qin Yining.
Qin Yining looked at Lu Heng expressionlessly.
Lu Heng also looked at Qin Yining as he retreated.
Qin Yining's heart didn't waver, but Lu Heng's heart was filled with sorrow.
It seemed like his decision today had completely offended her. There was no need for him to have any unrealistic fantasies about Qin Yining anymore. This woman didn't care about him at all. Now, she hated him even more!
Lu Heng gritted his teeth and turned around to instruct his men to escort them. The group turned around and ran.
Jinghu Wei and the guards beside Qin Yining wanted to chase after them.
However, Qin Yining grabbed Ji Dashun, who was beside him.
"Don't chase a cornered enemy."
Ji Dashun said regretfully, "If we don't give up, this subordinate will definitely be able to capture him alive for you!"
Qin Yining smiled and said, "Why would I capture him? He's still very useful to me.
”
Although Ji Dashun and the people around him didn't understand what Qin Yining meant, they understood and rejoiced in their hearts. Fortunately, Qin Yining was their Princess Consort. If it was someone else, Lu Heng would probably be fuming with anger.
