Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother

Chapter 378 It’s Too Dangerous Outside

Su smiled and nodded. "Okay, Yunzi, wherever you want to go, I'll take you there. In spring, we'll go see the tender green willow branches, in summer we'll enjoy the blooming lotus flowers, in autumn we'll see the red leaves together, and in winter we'll enjoy the snow scene together..." Her voice was gentle and long.

Ye Yunzi's lips curled up, her eyes full of love for her mother.

However, this tranquility was broken by the sudden stop of the carriage.

Yunzi's face turned pale in an instant and the smile on her face froze.

"What's going on?" Yu Shu opened the curtain and looked out in panic.

Then, the sound of swords clashing rang out, accompanied by shrill screams, and blood splashed on the carriage. Through the opened corner, Yunzi caught a glimpse of several blades flashing with cold light. She quickly pulled the frightened Yu Shu back into the carriage.

"Miss..." Yu Shu's voice trembled and her eyes were full of fear.

Su also seemed extremely uneasy, his body trembling slightly. This sudden attack caught people off guard. Did they encounter bandits?

But Yunzi, who had experienced rebirth, was calmer than anyone else. Although she was extremely anxious, the first thing she thought of was to protect her mother's safety.

"Leng Xue." She called out decisively, preparing to get off the car.

Su hurriedly grabbed her daughter's arm and said, "No, it's too dangerous outside."

At this time, Leng Xue rushed from behind, covered in blood. This female guard had amazing fighting power, fighting ten people alone, far better than ordinary guards.

Yunzi knew that only Leng Xue could ensure her mother's safety. "Don't worry, mother, I will protect you." She turned around and comforted him.

"Miss, these people are not ordinary bandits, but trained professional guards." Leng Xue reported hurriedly. If they were just ordinary bandits, they would have been dealt with long ago; but the opponents they are facing now are highly skilled and difficult to deal with easily.

Hearing this, Yunzi's eyes became complicated. Obviously, this attack was not aimed at the Su family, but at herself. She immediately made a judgment.

"I have sent a distress signal and support will come soon." Leng Xue remained calm and did not forget to send a message for help to the outside world even when fighting fiercely with the enemy.

At this critical moment, Ye Yunzi had only one thought in her mind: to keep her mother safe at all costs.

The sound of swords clashing became more intense, and the air was filled with a bloody smell. Ye Yunzi turned around abruptly, and the scene before her shocked her heart: the guards of the Su Mansion fell one by one, their robes stained with blood. At this moment, a young man in black raised his head, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

The two looked at each other, and Ye Yunzi felt a chill running down her spine. Instantly, she recognized the other person's identity, Mu Yan.

With her brows furrowed, she was secretly anxious: "Time is running out..."

If we can hold on until Shen Siyan's reinforcements arrive, there may be a chance of a turnaround; but variables may occur at any time, and even endanger my mother's life!

"Leng Xue, you must protect my mother. No matter what happens, don't leave her side and don't let anyone hurt her in any way." Ye Yunzi gave the order decisively.

"Miss..." Leng Xue's face was filled with worry, her brows furrowed. As a guard, her duty was to protect the young lady's safety. In such a dangerous situation, she should stand by the young lady.

"Leng Xue, over the past year, we have been like family. If you really regard me as half a master, please be sure to protect my mother." Ye Yunzi said in a firm tone, as if she was expressing her last wish.

Leng Xue's hand tightly grasped the hilt of the sword, trembling, but she finally nodded, "Yes, Miss."

After getting the response, Ye Yunzi felt slightly relieved, and a smile appeared on her face, "Mother..."

Her mother nervously grabbed her hand. Ye Yunzi gently patted the back of her mother's hand and comforted her: "Don't worry, everything will be fine. I will keep you safe."

After saying this, she struggled to break free from her mother's hand and jumped off the carriage resolutely.

I heard my mother's terrified cry from behind: "Yunzi! Come back soon."

Leng Xue's body tensed up. Although she instinctively wanted to stop it, she resisted the urge and stayed where she was because of the previous order.

"Miss, it's too dangerous, come back quickly." Yu Shu also shouted.

However, Ye Yunzi did not look back, but stepped firmly into the mud. She knew that only by standing up and facing Mu Yan could she win a glimmer of hope for the Su family.

Mu Yan's target was only her. As long as she left, others would have a chance to survive.

Ye Yunzi rushed to a horse, grabbed the reins, and jumped onto the horse's back nimbly.

"Gee." She shouted, and the horse galloped away like an arrow.

Seeing this, the young man's eyes flashed, and he quickly mounted another horse and chased after him.

“Yunzi! Yunzi…” Su shouted at the top of her lungs, her face pale.

When she saw her daughter riding away on horseback, followed by a group of people dressed as bandits, she fainted from fright.

Yu Shu hurriedly supported Su and called out anxiously, "Madam, wake up."

Leng Xue looked at Ye Yunzi going away, her teeth chattering and her body shaking. This was the first time she felt so scared, and at the same time she felt deeply guilty for not being able to protect the young lady. She prayed silently in her heart: Young lady, please be safe!

The wind roared in her ears and the cold air stung Ye Yunzi's cheeks like a knife.

Although she hadn't ridden a horse for a long time and was inevitably a little afraid, for the safety of her mother and family, she had to escape, the farther the better.

The one chasing Ye Yunzi was Mu Yan, who had transformed into a handsome young man.

Mu Yan stared fiercely at the white figure in front of her. She was extremely smart, beautiful, and proficient in both medicine and poison.

In her opinion, she was the only one worthy of being by the side of the Fourth Prince. However, all of this was ruined because of the woman in front of her.

It was Ye Yunzi who revealed the secret of the health-preserving pill and destroyed the important plan of the master behind Mu Yan. If she couldn't get rid of the emperor, how could her master ascend the throne? In anger, Mu Yan hated Ye Yunzi to the core and vowed to put her to death.

Half a month ago, Mu Yan carefully planned a trap to trick Su into taking Ye Yunzi to Yunling Temple to appreciate the plum blossoms.

Afterwards, she ordered her men to dress up as bandits and attack the Su residence's convoy, intending to leave no one alive.

Unexpectedly, Ye Yunzi reacted quickly and escaped first.

Mu Yan naturally would not give up and immediately rode his horse to chase after him.

Ye Yunzi rode her horse quickly through the jungle. Branches scratched her clothes and blood oozed from her shoulders.

But she didn't care and looked determined.

Mu Yan approached quickly with her superb riding skills, and the distance between them became shorter and shorter.

"Save your energy and just come here to die." She said coldly.

Ye Yunzi's face remained calm. She turned her head slightly, and there was a chill in her deep black eyes.

When Mu Yan saw this look, her heart trembled, as if she had seen this scene somewhere before.
