Hu Feng raised an eyebrow and his expression turned cold: “What did you see with your own eyes?”

Before the woman had time to speak, there was a loud shout from outside: “Catch the thief, seal all the exits, and kill without mercy.”

Hu Feng immediately understood: “We fell into a trap!”

Zhou Gang hasn’t figured out yet. What was his highness thinking?

The woman suddenly saw stars in front of her eyes, her arm was numb, and the dagger in her hand fell to the ground. Her arm then was held by the man, who was originally more than ten meters away from her. She thought her death was imminent, and so she closed her eyes while the dagger hasn’t fallen to her body yet.

Hu Feng released her arm and said: “Put your clothes on. I will take you away here. If you stay here, only death awaits you.”

The woman was puzzled: “We won’t die if we go with you?”

“You don’t need to believe what I say. It’s better to take a gamble. Maybe if you gamble on this one, you and your princess will survive.”

Zhou Gang also said: “Miss, if we have the heart to harm you, you should have been dead by then. Why should we waste time talking with you? Those people outside didn’t come sooner or later. Obviously, they came for us, but if we just leave, and you fall into their hands, your end will be unpredictable. You follow us now and we will promise you that we will send you the capital safely.”

The woman seemed a little moved, but there was still a hint of hesitation in her eyes.

At this time, there were screams from the stairs, and as Hu Feng expected, she made traps in there.

Hu Feng said: “You kill their people now, do you think they will let you go? Listening to the sound, how many do you think you can kill with your trap?”

The woman gritted her teeth and finally nodded: “Okay, I will go with you.”

She quickly fastened her belt and rushed into the room to carry the unconscious girl on the bed. The girl was still covered with a layer of gauze. Her face couldn’t be seen.

Zhou Gang said: “You are a weak woman, how can you carry her on your back? Let me do it!”

The woman began to hesitate again. Her princess’s body was much more precious than a thousand gold. How can she let a strange man carry her casually?

Hu Feng frowned, his eyes full of displeasure, and so he angrily said: “At this moment, what are you still thinking? Is life more important or this indispensable thing important?”

The woman was yelled at by him, but she understood. He was right. She can lose her life now, so why should she care about these unnecessary things? If their princess woke up, she will not blame her.

Zhou Gang felt that the woman on her back was very light, he was afraid that she would fall on the road, so he took a cloth strip and tie her body on him. Then he and Hu Feng jumped out of the window.

When the people outside rushed to the room, there was no figure, nor a shadow.

“Trash, you asshole – what happened?”

“My lord, if not because someone installed traps on the stairs and blocked our way, we wouldn’t let the people run.”

“Everyone now has run away, what’s the point of saying these now? Why don’t you chase after them?”

After Hu Feng and Zhou Gang took the two girls out of the post-house, they rode straight to the city gate, only to find that the city gate was already closed. It was obvious that they had come prepared to close the gate in broad daylight.

“His Royal Highness, what shall we do now?” Zhou Gang asked.

Hu Feng immediately turned his horse’s head and led Zhou Gang into a secluded alley. Only after that, he replied to his question: “There is an ambush at the city gate. If you try to break through, you will be caught in their trap. At that time, all the dead people in the post house will be counted on your head and me.”
