Chapter 1673: Come Up!

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Once we’re out of the encirclement,” Shao Yucen continued, “Leave me behind and run. You can run faster by yourself. Let’s meet again at a place by the river five miles outside the city. If I know any news that will give you a better chance to kill the Emperor of Da Ling, I’ll meet you there and tell you everything

I know.”

Shao Yucen’s expression was written all over her face. Sun Ai knew everything clearly in his heart. He cooperated. “Don’t worry. No matter what grudge you have with the Da Ling Emperor, I will help you kill him.”

Shao Yucen was naturally more willing to help Sun Ai once he said that.

At this moment, Feng Ling arrived at the door of the room. She began to knock on the door in a hurry. She kept shouting anxiously, “Miss, Miss!”

Shao Yucen replied. Her tone was very unpleasant.” What’s the matter? Why are you disturbing my sleep so late at night?!”

“Madam’s condition is getting worse,” Feng Ling said anxiously. “The others have already gone over. They want you to go over as well.”

Madam Shao was Shao Yucen’s grandmother.

“My grandmother hasn’t been feeling well recently. It makes sense for them to find this excuse,” Shao Yucen whispered to Sun Ai.

Sun Ai heaved a huge sigh of relief. If Shao Yucen was a little d*mber, he would probably have been kept in the dark. He would have thought that her grandmother was unwell and had suffered a great injury.

“Hurry up,” Shao Yucen urged.

Sun Ai first nodded. Then, he kicked the unlit lamp standing beside him, making a sound. Then, he used the dagger to press against Shao Yucen’s neck.

Feng Ling did not hear any response from inside. She was about to shout anxiously again to ask Shao Yucen to go to the great madam’s place, but before she could shout, she heard a sound from inside. She immediately wanted to pull out her short knife. The archers and the people hiding in the dark with knives and swords held onto their weapons, ready for a fight.

Shao Boqi’s heart was also in his throat because of this sound.

Shao Zhongxi was the only one who remained as cold as ever. However, his sharp and cold eyes were focused on the courtyard.

Shao Boqi and Shao Zhongxi were also crouching on the roof. Although they could roughly see the situation in Shao Yucen’s courtyard under the moonlight, Shao Yucen’s room was not lit and the door was closed. They could not see what was going on inside. Shao Boqi’s daughter’s life was at stake, so his heart was in his throat. Because of this, his heart was racing.

At this moment, Sun Ai’s voice rang out from the room. “I know you’ve surrounded me! However, if you want your daughter to live, you should leave!”

After saying that, he even pulled open the door with one hand. At the same time, the door let out a loud bang. Sun Ai also held Shao Yucen hostage and stood at the door under the moonlight.

There were lanterns in the corridor outside the door, so it was easier for people on the roof or hiding in the dark to see clearly. After closer inspection, a bright white blade could be seen pressed against Shao Yucen’s neck.

Shao Yucen’s face was filled with tears. Her body trembled as she cried, “Dad, save me…”

When Feng Ling saw this, she could only retreat to the side and did not dare to rush forward.

“Ah, what should we do!” Shao Boqi, who was on the roof, breathed in a deep breath. He did not expect Sun Ai to see through his ploy at the beginning.

However, Shao Boqi and Shao Zhongxi were certain that the injured person in Shao Yucen’s room was indeed the missing attendant, Sun Ai.

They were both present when they received the Beicheng diplomatic team. Censor Wang was a high-ranking official and was standing not far from Empress Fu Ying. Naturally, they noticed what the attendant behind Censor Wang looked like.
