Luo Cheng laughed when he saw the two of them bicker.
“Don’t worry, nothing will happen! But Miss Shu is right. Wu Qinghe, you have to be careful. As long as you don’t leave the carriage, I can guarantee your safety!”
Wu Qinghe and Shu Ruyue stopped bickering and nodded at the same time.
A carriage was moving on the streets of the capital.
However, a while after they left the casino, no one appeared along the way. When she heard the commotion in front, Li Xiaoran thought of something.
“Isn’t there a busy market in front of us?”
Luo Cheng nodded and said, “Yes! It’s called Yongxing Street. It’s the only way back!”
Li Xiaoran reminded, “Oh no. The other party will definitely attack in the busy market. When the time comes, I’m afraid innocent people will be injured!”
After Luo Cheng thought about it for a moment, he asked someone to stop the carriage.
Wondering what he would decide to do, everyone in the carriage looked at Luo Cheng.
Should they continue forward or not?
Luo Cheng suddenly thought of something and smiled.
“Let’s go into the alley on the left side to return to the Seventh Prince’s residence first!”
When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, she recalled the map of the capital and laughed.
“Good idea. I haven’t been back to the Seventh Prince’s residence for a long time! I wonder what it’s like now!”
Just like that, the carriage started moving again, but this time, it changed direction.
If they went to the Seventh Prince’s house, they wouldn’t have to pass by Yongxing Street. Moreover, the road behind would become quieter and quieter, and very few passersby would come out.
The people who were originally lying in ambush on Yongxing Street were furious when they received the news, but they could only quickly change their location and chase after them.
After sensing their emotions, Li Xiaoran sneered.
“Husband, it seems that many people want this sum of money! Wealth is really tempting!”
When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he said seriously, “Xiaoran, actually, it’s not their fault. You can only blame yourself and Wu Qinghe for winning too much tonight. The money you two won today is enough for those people to risk their lives!”
After Wu Qinghe was called out by Luo Cheng, he quickly waved his hand and said, “Brother Luo Cheng, don’t count me in. How can the money I won compare to Madam’s? Madam’s wealth is much more tempting!”
“Forget it! You won a thousand taels of gold. How can this be a small amount? Didn’t you see that many people in the casino were glaring at you? If looks could kill, you would have been killed a thousand times over!” Shu Ruyue
snorted and said, “It’s because Xiaoran attracted more hatred that you were saved. Otherwise, there was no way you could have walked out of there unscathed! If my guess is wrong, I’ll take your surname!” When Wu Qinghe heard Shu Ruyue’s words, he immediately laughed.
“Sure, but you have to marry me first!”
“You!” Shu Ruyue was so angry with Wu Qinghe that she lost her temper. This fool never grasped the main point.
“You and Xiaoran are about the same. The amount of money you won is enough to put your life in danger!” Luo Cheng said with disdain, “Since you’re so rich, why don’t you buy a house in the capital and some servants? Don’t follow me!”
Wu Qinghe quickly said, “No, no, no. Brother Luo Cheng, I’ll shut up immediately! I’m not stupid. If I leave you, my bad luck will flare up. Not to mention not being able to keep this gold, I might even lose my life!”
At this moment, Li Xiaoran suddenly said, “Those people are here!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the carriage was blocked by a group of men in black in a narrow alley.
Without another word, this group of people shot arrows at them.
As soon as Li Xiaoran spoke, Luo Cheng pressed a button.
While those people were attacking, many iron sheets appeared around the carriage and wrapped around it.
The flying arrows hit the iron sheet and couldn’t hit the carriage at all.
At the same time, something was thrown out from the carriage.
Unfortunately, the men in black couldn’t see clearly in the night. Before the second round of arrows were shot, the group of men in black fell down.
Before they fainted, the group realized that they had been tricked.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
After dealing with this wave of attacks, the carriage continued forward.
Before long, another wave of killers arrived.
This time, the other party slashed at the horse in front of the carriage.
Zi Cheng, who was sitting in front, dealt with the people who were coming for the horse. Then, he raised his whip and urged the horse to run with all its might.
Perhaps sensing danger, the horse accelerated forward.
When the killers behind saw this, they immediately chased after them.
However, as they chased, they ran slower and slower. Then, they lost all strength and slumped to the ground.
What was even more surprising was that be it those lying in ambush in front or those following behind, everyone who saw the carriage fainted.
Even if someone realized that something was wrong and took an antidote pill, they still didn’t escape the outcome of passing out.
Just like that, a carriage slipped past the group of people and entered the Seventh Prince’s residence.
At this moment, the people in the Seventh Prince’s residence had already been changed by the emperor.
The people sent to the Seventh Prince’s residence were all people the emperor trusted, and they had been carefully investigated several times.
Shocked that the Seventh Prince and Seventh Consort were finally back, Xiang Yanghong quickly ran out to welcome them.
“Seventh Prince, you’re finally back! I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!” Xiang Yanghong quickly went forward and bowed.
After getting out of the carriage, Luo Cheng glanced at Xiang Yanghong.
“Why do I feel that you look a little familiar?”
Xiang Yanghong laughed when he heard Luo Cheng’s words.
“Seventh Prince, you think I’m familiar because you saved me in the past!”
At this point, Xiang Yanghong reminded him.
“Seventh Prince, when you requested to leave the royal family, you saved a dying person and sent him to the medical center. You also left money for medicine and food.”
When Luo Cheng heard Xiang Yanghong’s words, he immediately remembered this.
After he was removed from the royal family, he left the house happily.
Unexpectedly, he encountered a seriously injured person along the way, so he helped out!
However, Luo Cheng didn’t expect that he would actually save his future butler.
“You’re from the royal family?” Luo Cheng asked in confusion, “Why were you there?”
