Chapter 88: Chapter 087: Was Granny Just Wasting Her Time for the Past Decade or So?

Fu Rou hurriedly dragged Mrs. Du away towards the back of the temple: "It’s bandits... let’s go quickly!"

"Where can we go?!"

Just then, a fierce shout came through the door, followed by a slender figure wielding a knife, leaping towards them like a descending Rashamon!

Mrs. Du hadn’t even caught her breath when the knife slashed into Fu Rou’s leg!

A fountain of blood sprayed into the air, and the second young lady of the Fu Family who had just saved her with a heavenly descent screamed and fell to the ground, her severed leg folding towards Mrs. Du!

Mrs. Du also let out a scream and fell back to the ground, eyes rolling back!

...

Last night, Fu Rou and Mrs. Liu plotted all night and finally decided on this triple-benefit scheme; by abducting Mrs. Du, they planned to kill Fu Zhen, thereafter using the act of saving her to persuade the Du Family to accept Fu Rou in place of Fu Zhen to fulfill the marriage agreement, while also firmly binding Fu Yun with interests.

Every step of the plan was under their control!

Fu Zhen learned about Mrs. Du’s abduction and would undoubtedly avoid any trouble; she would definitely intervene. So Fu Rou showed her face under the city gate to lure her out of the city.

She knew Fu Zhen wouldn’t let her go and would certainly suspect her. If Fu Zhen didn’t pursue, and something happened to Mrs. Du, she and her mother couldn’t bear the consequences.

Moreover, at that time, Fu Zhen had no evidence to prove that they were the masterminds of the abduction, nor did she know if Mrs. Du was really in danger. Even if Fu Zhen sensed something was amiss, she could only follow.

After leaving the city, Chen Gui and the others would take action.

Feigning the identity of bandits to kill Fu Zhen was all too perfect!

The two bandits they hired were street thugs; after the deed, they’d take the money given by them and make a swift escape!

And Fu Yun had no affection for his legitimate eldest daughter, he wouldn’t report it to the authorities. As long as he, as the father, didn’t persist to the end, then Mrs. Fu alone couldn’t do anything against them.

Moreover, Mrs. Fu was also trapped today, they couldn’t look after each other!

But Fu Rou never imagined Fu Zhen had such great abilities!

Last night, to ensure foolproof success, they painstakingly scrutinized every recent move by Fu Zhen. ——Yes, Fu Zhen was indeed fierce, arrogant indeed, but her fighting was just kicking and stick-wielding, something anyone could do. Chen Gui also believed that Fu Zhen couldn’t possibly have martial arts!

But she could ride a horse!

She also had such an agile physique!

She could punch through the canopy of the carriage and drag Fu Rou out to beat her up!

She even managed to maintain her composure in facing the siege of Chen Gui’s four men, and fiercely threatened her without fear of the scene!

Moreover, even after Chen Gui restrained her with a knife, she still managed to escape and pursued all the way into the temple?!

Fu Rou was terrified to death!

How could this still be the same old Fu Zhen?

She never imagined things could go so wrong; she never intended to cause such a mess!

She just wanted to feign the abduction of Mrs. Du and then show herself to gain favor, quietly killing Fu Zhen along the way, so Chen Gui’s four men plus two bandits made only six people in total!

Now, Fu Zhen broke through the obstruction of these six people and came directly to kill!

Looking at her leg bleeding like a column, Fu Rou fainted several times, but the shock and unwillingness in her heart pulled her back each time!

She looked incredulously at Fu Zhen, screaming sharply: "How did you do it? How did you do it!"

In front of her, Fu Zhen stood with a knife, the tip dripping with blood, her body speckled with bloodstains. Although her hair was disheveled and her clothes were dirty, it only added to her endless killing aura!

On a usual day, Fu Rou, who was stronger and more energetic than her, seemed like an ant before her!

Fu Zhen flipped the knife, the back facing down, and fiercely struck her other leg!

With a clear "crack" sound!

Fu Rou quivered and curled up on the ground, her eyes wide open to their limit, filled with terror!

At this moment, the two bandits guarding the door and the two escorts Fu Rou brought up the mountain all rushed in. Seeing the scene before them, they looked as if they saw a demon, retreating a few steps with knives in hand!

"Did you think Granny wasted the first decade of her life? Who says killing requires advanced martial arts? Without martial arts, I can still crush you!"

Fu Zhen stepped on Fu Rou’s broken leg, the words coming out of her mouth colder with each one!

Did the Liang Family achieve prominent accolades following the emperor’s eastern and western campaigns merely by muscles?

The most formidable in military strategy is tactics, martial skills come second!

If one must rely on fists and feet in combat to win, how did deceitful ministers with pens overthrow those military generals throughout history?

If martial arts alone suffice, wouldn’t a contest between the generals decide the victor when two armies clash?

Foolish!

Her military strategies weren’t studied in vain!

Half of the seven strategies Xu Yin used to rise were plagiarized from her efforts!

Without sufficient skills, would she dare to ascend Liang Mountain?

To bind Mrs. Du, they had only one carriage, a carriage for Mrs. Du alone could carry at most two men! Moreover, to deal with a pampered official’s wife, two men were plenty!

Plus, Fu Rou had only brought along four protectors including Chen Gui, and even when Fu Zhen captured her, no extras jumped out to rescue, let alone when she escaped up the mountain taking two men.

Fu Rou was still a weak woman, and since Mrs. Liu trusted her to do this, would they not consider her safety?

Based on this, the combined force of those binding Mrs. Du must definitely not surpass Chen Gui’s four, otherwise, Fu Rou’s safety couldn’t be assured!

Fu Zhen, unarmed, even defeated two of Chen Gui’s men, and once she had a weapon, how would she fear the rest?

Of course, she wouldn’t fight a battle she couldn’t win.

No trick in war is too deceitful; she led the horse tied with pine branches and stones to gallop through the forest, raising dust to create false momentum, while silently sneaking to the temple’s side.

The kidnappers inside and Fu family’s guards heard the noise on the mountain path and all rushed out, believing reinforcements came from the mountain!

Fu Zhen ensured they only had four people and then attacked them unprepared, catching them off guard as they were busy speculating and counteracting!

Although she no longer had the strength of the silver-faced Rashamon, no one could better act the role of a ruthless Rashamon!

As long as no one forced her to engage, outwardly she was still the Liang Ning known for charging across northwest battlefields on horseback!

Among Fu family’s two escorts and two bandits, they were more powerful than her. Unable to capture them all in one go, she chose the weakest to act first!

She first stabbed one of the bandits, holding him as a shield and pointing the bloody blade at the others, in such a manner controlling the situation immediately with four or five points of advantage!

To catch the thief, catch the king; at this moment, Fu Rou couldn’t be left—striking while the iron was hot, she chopped off Fu Rou’s leg, and with blood spurting from the severed limb, the two Fu family’s escorts who pursued couldn’t help but drop their knives and kneel!...

"I was taught never to raise fists against the weak, Granny showed mercy the few times because you didn’t qualify as an opponent! But with your baseness, I shall uproot you completely!"

After kicking away the knives in front of the escorts, Fu Zhen raised her right leg and violently stomped on Fu Rou’s right shoulder—

After an ear-splitting scream, three of Fu Rou’s limbs were rendered useless!
