Chapter 288: Can't Just Sit Back and Do Nothing
"Black Shadow, you should know that although your master is dissatisfied with me and even despises me,
But you know better than anyone else that if I really die here today, then none of you present here will be able to escape responsibility and will all be buried with me!
Humph, of course, if you don't believe me, you can just take a gamble and give it a try!" Zhao Meir's face was full of determination, her beautiful eyes fixed on the black shadow in front of her, without any fear.
When the black shadow saw this, his face suddenly changed and he couldn't help but groan in his heart.
He knew very well that what the woman in front of him said was true. If anything happened to her, his master would certainly not let them off easily.
Thinking of this, the black shadow did not dare to hesitate any longer and quickly waved his hand, signaling the group of men in black to stop attacking immediately.
The shadowy figure spoke slowly, his voice low and subdued: "Okay, in that case, as long as you follow me obediently, I won't make things difficult for anyone else."
Hearing this, Xie Dahua became extremely anxious. He quickly reached out and grabbed Zhao Meir's sleeve tightly, his face full of anxiety.
She said in a trembling voice: "Auntie, absolutely not, you can't go with him!"
"Master, you can't..." Xiaoting and Xiaoyu screamed at the same time.
Zhao Meir seemed unusually calm. She gently patted Xie Dahahua's hand, which was tightly holding hers, and signaled her to stay calm.
Then, she stepped forward, facing the shadow, staring at him with her beautiful eyes, and asked softly:
"If I obey you and follow you, will you really keep your promise and let everyone here go?"
The shadow nodded slightly in agreement.
Seeing this, Zhao Mei'er took a deep breath and said resolutely, "Forget it, I'll trust you this time. I promise to leave with you!"
After saying that, she slowly turned around and glanced at Xie Dahua and Manager Chen, the only ones who could still stand.
She solemnly warned, "After you have properly treated the injured, you must leave this troubled place as soon as possible.
In addition, regarding what happened today, especially regarding my specific situation, not even a single piece of information must be leaked to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
This matter is of great importance. You must keep it deeply in mind and must not be careless or slack in the slightest.
Besides, you are not allowed to come and rescue me under any circumstances. Please believe me, I will definitely not die!"
"Ghost, stop talking nonsense, or don't blame me for changing my mind!" the black shadow said in a low voice.
His tone revealed a chilling majesty, "Don't forget, you cut off one of my arms with your own hands!"
"I understand, let's go!" After saying that, Zhao Meir turned around without hesitation, took firm steps, and slowly walked towards the black shadow, with determination in every step.
Just as she approached the shadow, suddenly, a powerful force came like a storm.
The black shadow suddenly stretched out a strong and powerful hand with lightning speed and tightly grasped her slender and delicate arm.
Before she could react, the black shadow picked her up mercilessly and threw her onto the carriage as if she were throwing an object.
Then, the black shadow flashed, quickly jumped onto the horse, squeezed his legs against the horse's belly, and the horse neighed and galloped out, running wildly towards the direction of the capital!
"aunt......"
"The Princess..."
The guards who were still conscious watched this scene happen with their own eyes, and they were extremely anxious and cried out in disbelief.
Their voices were filled with fear, anxiety and helplessness, and tears welled up in their eyes.
These people were deeply moved by Zhao Meir's selfless act of saving others, but they also felt guilty and self-blame for failing to fulfill their responsibility to protect them.
They were originally responsible for the responsibility of protecting the princess's safety, but at this moment, it was the princess who stepped forward and used her weak body to block the danger, and was unfortunately abducted by the black shadow.
Looking at the figure walking away, everyone's hearts seemed to be torn into countless pieces and were in great pain.
At this moment, Xie Xiaogang, who had been unconscious, slowly woke up.
He blinked in confusion at first, and when his consciousness gradually regained, he began to slowly turn his head and look around.
After taking a closer look, he was surprised to find that the thrilling battle had come to an end.
Just as Xie Xiaogang was secretly rejoicing that he had managed to survive, his eyes continued to wander around searching.
However, what surprised him was that no matter how hard he looked, he could not see that familiar figure. Zhao Meir was nowhere to be seen.
An anxious Xie Xiaogang quickly asked, "Where's the eldest princess? Where is she?"
The moment the words fell, the whole scene seemed to freeze, and everyone present looked at each other at the same time.
However, no one was able to respond quickly.
For a moment, a strange silence filled the air, as if time had suddenly stopped.
Everyone's face looked so heavy and serious at this moment. The solemn expression was like a dark cloud, making it almost impossible to breathe.
This oppressive atmosphere was like an invisible force that tightly enveloped everyone present, making people feel extremely dull and suffocated.
Finally, Xiaoting and Xiaoyu could no longer suppress their emotions and tears burst out of their eyes.
Their bodies trembled with extreme sadness, and sobs came from their throats.
After much difficulty, he managed to squeeze out a few words: "Captain Xie... My master... My master... was forcibly captured by them!"
These painful words, like sharp arrows, shoot straight into people's hearts.
As soon as these words were spoken, the two of them seemed to have lost all their strength and collapsed to the ground completely.
She looked so grief-stricken that she was like a pear blossom in the rain, unable to contain her grief.
Seeing them so sad, the eyes of the others couldn't help but turn red.
Everyone's mood became extremely heavy, and they were all filled with worry and deep sadness about the unfortunate fate that Zhao Meir had suffered.
Upon hearing this, Xie Xiaogang clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and squeezed out a word from between his teeth: "We can't just sit there and do nothing. We must find a way to rescue the princess!"
Everyone looked embarrassed, like eggplants hit by frost.
"But the eldest princess repeatedly stressed that we should not rescue her, and even said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must not know about this!" said a guard.
Zhao Xiaogang pondered for a moment and said, "It would be useless for us to rescue him. It would be like a moth flying into a flame. But we can't listen to the princess on this matter. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must know!"
