Chapter 437 Fear of an Ambush
Chapter 437 Fear of an Ambush
As soon as Ye Nanyue gave the order, Eleven opened the door.
Zhuifeng stood at the door and reported a few words to Ye Nanyue in a low voice.
After hearing this, Ye Nanyan couldn't help but frown: "In that case, let's go first."
Everyone was tired, but instead of taking the risk of staying at the post station, it would be better to go and meet up with Lu Huaiyang and the others early.
We are almost there, so it’s better not to make any mistakes along the way.
Go there sooner, see them sooner, and feel relieved sooner.
After hearing this, Zhuifeng thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, since the princess says so, we will set off in half an hour. Let's go and get ready."
Ye Nanyan said, "Take the horse and luggage away first, go out through the backyard, leave the horse at the side door, and then we can leave together."
That way, the target will be smaller.
Ye Nanyue will also use those luggage to pretend later, so she can't let them go now.
After hearing what Ye Nanyan said, Zhuifeng hurriedly said, "Yes, I understand."
As soon as Zhuifeng left, Ye Nanyan closed the door and said to Eleven and Fifteen, "Let's pack up and get ready to leave."
Fifteen was watching the situation downstairs from the window over there. After hearing what Ye Nanyue said, he couldn't help but ask, "Master, what's wrong?"
Ye Nanyan: "Zhuifeng said that those people were acting sneaky and prepared kerosene. No one else in the post station lived in the house because they were afraid of an ambush."
Shiwu quickly glanced at Ye Nanyan, then fixed his gaze on the people walking around in the yard. He said, "If they were going to take action, it wouldn't be so obvious, right?"
There are so many people here, and they are all good at martial arts.
If the other party had an ambush, they would definitely not choose such an unsafe method.
Even if the fire really started, with their skills, they could escape without their luggage.
Why would the other party go to so much trouble?
According to the current situation of the Cao people, they should want to loot supplies.
After looting supplies, it is even more impossible to pour kerosene on it.
So, all signs indicate that something is very wrong.
Ye Nanyue naturally knew that what Shiwu said made sense.
And it was also her own previous worry.
Ye Nanyan glanced at Fifteen and said, "Then guess why I am like this?"
Fifteen saw that Ye Nanyue looked a little serious, and his eyes became a little colder. He said, "Are you afraid that there will be another ambush?"
Ye Nanyan nodded: "Yes."
Fifteen's expression changed slightly: "Damn this servant, I didn't expect this."
These people might be acting like this on purpose, it definitely wouldn't be for no reason.
However, if you put in a lot of thought, it would be impossible for you to come up with such a clumsy plot.
So, after all the calculations, the biggest possibility is that there is another conspiracy somewhere else.
Therefore, if they had come here to plot against them from the very beginning, they must have had a trick up their sleeve!
Fifteen had been with Lu Huaiyang for so long, yet he made such a low-level mistake. This was naturally unforgivable.
So at this moment, when hearing Ye Nanyue ask this, Fifteen was also nervous.
His face didn't look very good anymore.
Ye Nanyan said: "It's okay, everyone makes mistakes, be more careful next time."
"Especially in a crisis like this!"
Ye Nanyue rarely speaks harshly to his servants, especially those like Eleven and Fifteen who are particularly loyal and efficient, so he is even more gentle with them.
Suddenly seeing Ye Nanyue's expression, Fifteen felt a little uneasy.
He immediately knelt down in front of Ye Nanyan, his voice and tone filled with uneasiness, and said, "Princess, calm down. It's all my fault. I will pay more attention next time."
Ye Nanyan nodded slightly and said to Fifteen, "Just remember the lesson. Don't make the same mistake again. Do you understand?"
Fifteen people had already knelt down. After hearing Ye Nanyue say this, they looked up at her cautiously.
Seeing that there was no abnormality on Ye Nanyue's face, he breathed a sigh of relief and stood up.
Ye Nanyan: "You watch the situation below. Eleven and I will pack up and prepare to go back soon."
Eleven and fifteen are busy with their own things.
Fifteen stood by the window, looking at the passers-by below, his expression becoming more and more serious and earnest.
Perhaps because he had just been taught a lesson by Ye Nanyue, he wanted to make amends now, so when he looked at the people coming and going in the yard below, he became more serious and looked extremely vigilant.
Seeing Fifteen like this, Ye Nanyue felt a little relieved and quickly went to pack her luggage with Eleven.
People around her should be more cautious.
You never know, if you are not careful, you may lose your life.
Therefore, no carelessness is allowed.
They didn't have much stuff, and most of it was taken from the carriage but not opened.
The purpose is to make it convenient to travel at any time.
Some unimportant items were placed directly on the carriage, and the wind chasers took turns to guard and watch the luggage.
It only took Ye Nanyue and Eleven a quarter of an hour to count everything.
After a while, Fifteen said, "Some of those people left, only two are left in the yard."
Ye Nanyan said to Eleven, "Go check and ask Zhuifeng when we can set off!"
Eleven nodded quickly and disappeared into the room the next moment.
After a while, Eleven came back.
"How is it?" Ye Nanyue asked Eleven.
Eleven: "Master Zhuifeng said that the luggage has been taken away and the men and horses are already at the side door."
"When the time is right, come pick us up and we can leave."
"Yeah." Ye Nanyue nodded, and her eyes became more serious for a moment.
The three of them waited in the room for a while, and then they heard the sound of Zhuifeng sending a signal outside.
Eleven immediately went out to meet Zhuifeng, while Fifteen waited behind Ye Nanyue.
After Eleven confirmed that there was no danger, Ye Nanyue followed him out, and Fifteen followed behind.
Zhuifeng didn't say anything when he saw Ye Nanyue. He just made a gesture and led the way. Several people followed him downstairs.
It was safe all the way to the side gate. After walking for a distance, they found the horses under the shade of a tree next to the side gate.
A few people went over, got on their horses and left!
The horse had just run a short distance when he heard someone shouting behind him: "They've run away, chase them!"
Immediately, the carriage carrying Ye Nanyue and his group ran even faster.
There was someone behind them holding a torch and riding a horse, chasing after them!
Zhuifeng lowered his voice and said, "It's a trick! We need to be careful ahead, fearing they might be setting an ambush."
Ye Nanyan said, "Let's take the official road."
Zhuifeng was stunned for a moment, then he understood.
If they really had an ambush, it probably wouldn't be on the official road.
Who would have thought that they would dare to escape directly from the official road?
Fortunately, Zhuifeng was easy to communicate with, and the group ran towards the official road.
The official road was easy to walk on, and soon the horses ran even faster.
