Of course, just in case, Zhou Ying bought all the alcohol and oil in the inn and loaded them into her carriage.

The group traveled smoothly for quite so ti until they passed by the place where Zhou Ying and the others were ambushed last ti.

Zhou Ying noticed hundreds of n in black hiding on the other side of the mountain, and the scouts sent by Zhang Ping were also eliminated.

There were only about 80 people in their group. The assassins would not lose even if they fought head-on, let alone ambushing them. Zhou Ying quickly inford Gu Chengrui of this.

Gu Chengrui peeked out and saw Zhang Ping and the others at the front were about to enter an ambush.

“General Zhang, wait a mont.”

After shouting, he imdiately got off the carriage and ran over.

Zhang Ping heard his shout and imdiately raised his hand to stop everyone. When he ca over, he asked, “What happened, Lord Gu?”

“Don’t you think it’s too quiet here?” Gu Chengrui asked.

Zhang Ping asked in surprise, “Are you saying there might be an ambush?”

“It’s best to be careful. Didn’t you send out a scout who hasn’t returned yet? Let’s wait for a while. Safety first.”

Zhang Ping hesitated for a mont, but he finally nodded after considering the safety of His Highness. He then went to report to King Rui personally.

After waiting for about 15 minutes, Zhang Ping began to feel uneasy. The scout had gone for a long ti and should have returned.

They waited another 15 minutes, but there was still no sign of his return. Zhang Ping finally confird that there was an ambush ahead.

At this ti, Zhou Huaiming had also rushed over with 20 people.

After learning that there was an ambush ahead, he said solemnly, “Your highness, you must return. Leave this place to us.”

“I’m not going back. If I head back, it’ll be difficult to reenter the capital again.

“If I don’t return, the princess consort and the others will be in danger.” King Rui shook his head.

He knew very well that, after the exposure of the cris of the First Prince and the Fourth Price, the situation inside the capital was dire, even though it seed calm on the surface.

Otherwise, Seventh Su would not have attempted assassination on Gu Chengrui and his wife. He even tried wiping out the forces King Rui left in the capital, including the two consorts.

If he couldn’t return this ti, the First and Fourth Princes would join forces to kill him.

Even if he could survive, he would suffer heavy losses. This was not what he wanted to see.

“If you trust , pick a few people with strong arms. I have my ways.” Gu Chengrui spoke up.

“What is it?” Zhang Ping quickly turned his head and asked.

“You should still rember the oil lamp we threw back then, right? When we left the inn, my wife bought all the alcohol and oil there.”

“But how do we lure them out?”

“Gather all the horses and run over quickly.”

“It’s feasible. Let’s do it.” King Rui nodded in agreent.

“That’s right. When they hear the sound of thundering hooves, they will act.

“Even if we fail, they’ll co out after knowing we’ve discovered them. Otherwise, they won’t have the chance to make a move at dawn.” Zhou Huaiming nodded in agreent.

Zhang Ping nodded and started to execute the plan.

What they didn’t expect was that there was a trip rope on the way. Fortunately, there was no one on the horse that fell.

At the sa ti, when everyone stopped to check the horse that fell, Zhou Ying used her spiritual senses to strangle two assassins on sentry duty at the top of the mountain.

Therefore, when the horses continued their march, the assassins did not receive a heads-up from the sentries and imdiately ran out to intercept the horses..
