At the same time, Cheng Xiao's tense voice rang out, "Madam, it's… Duke Xing. And also..."
Xu Jing's eyes opened slightly.
Duke Xing… Jiang Shaoyan!
But why is it that with Duke Xing's arrival, there were no sounds of weapons clashing outside?
Why did Duke Xing come, and for what reason?
Xu Jing abruptly pushed open the carriage door, and when she saw the scene before her, her heart sank.
Outside, Duke Xing Jiang Shaoyan was standing at the front of the road with a group of soldiers. The number of soldiers he brought was not many, roughly about twenty or so.
The number of guards on her side easily outmatched them.
However, despite this advantage, Cheng Xiao and the others dared not act rashly because—Jiang Shaoyan was holding a familiar woman hostage—Cheng Qingqing, whom she had just seen when she left Anping County!
No wonder Cheng Xiao hesitated to speak earlier.
