In Love With My Fierce Farming Wife!
Chapter 1298 - 1207: Bait

Chapter 1298: Chapter 1207: Bait

The masked men had no intention of concealing their tracks, and they swarmed forward, killing as they went.

Those who were originally in a frantic attempt to rescue the Empress Mother quickly turned to defend themselves, but it was clear they were no match for the assailants in black, as screams of agony were heard from time to time.

In just a few moments, half of the retinue that had accompanied her out of the palace had either died or been injured.

And the masked men clearly had no plans to entangle with the palace guards. Instead, they were killing a blood path, with their swords pointed directly at Su Pan’er and her child, who were pinned under a grape trellis.

"Stop!"

Ye Han was in an anxious fury, shouting as he rushed forward, "Rescue Her Majesty! Rescue Her Majesty, quickly save the Empress!"

Prompted by the order, the palace guards clenched their teeth and stepped forward to block. After only a moment of resistance, the masked men had reached the grape trellis. Without a word, they began stabbing down.

Dozens of sword tips were aimed directly at the Empress Mother, vowing not to stop until the people under the trellis were stabbed into a bloody mess.

"No!—Pan’er!"

Ye Han was in utter despair, bellowing a tragic cry.

He had forgotten all about the distinction between sovereign and subject, between men and women, his heart occupied by only that small woman surrounded by countless sharp swords!

With a fling of his hand, he cast aside Little Yanyan who had already approached, and his sword strikes were exceptionally fast!

Almost every time he stretched out his hand, someone would fall, but he seemed not to notice, fighting his way toward where Su Pan’er had fallen. His eyes saw nothing else but the grape trellis that was being violently chopped at...

Someone once said that in one’s lifetime, you will meet someone you truly, sincerely love. You will hold her in your heart, not allowing anyone else to touch her.

Not seeking eternality, but simply to be by each other’s side, so that when you most need me, I can be there for you.

Even if, the person closest to you is not me!

To Ye Han, Su Pan’er was far more important than his own life!

He didn’t know when, but she had entered his heart unnoticed, making it impossible for him to accommodate any other woman. His embrace could no longer open up to any other woman.

Perhaps it was from the moment he first saw her, with her chubby silly appearance, that she had taken root deep within his heart.

Time changes, seas into mulberry fields, but even though she had become beautiful, had become the mother of several children, in his heart, she remained as she had been when they first met.

He had also tried to accept other women, but those women were not her, making even the thought of touching them nauseating for him!

He thought he would spend his life this way, silently watching over her, feeling happy as she was happy, quietly standing by her side until he grew old...

But he never imagined that it would turn out like this!

Ye Han was provoked, his eyes were bloodshot with raging anger. "Today, I want all of you to die here, none of you will escape!"

As he spoke, his long sword struck out.

He quickly dispatched the masked man closest to him, and without waiting for his posture to recover, he charged into the crowd again.

Originally, the masked men came with the determination to perish with the Empress and her child, adopting a death-defying fighting style as they broke into the palace guards’ ring.

But now it was clearly different from what they had anticipated.

"This isn’t right! The Empress is not here, we’ve been tricked!"

The swords that they thrust felt unnervingly light, as if they hadn’t struck a human body at all.

"Retreat quickly!"

The masked assailants realized they had been tricked and tried to retreat immediately, but Ye Han had already attacked, denying them any chance to escape.

The palace guards also converged, and the masked men found themselves unable to flee, tipping the battle decisively in one direction.

Ye Han’s eyes had turned bloodshot with fury, unwavering in his resolve as he spared none of the escaping masked men. Every move he made was ruthless and reckless.

"I want you all to accompany Pan’er in death! None of you will escape!"

Ye Han bellowed with anger!

His momentum was like a sweeping rainbow, overwhelming all before him.

Thinking of fleeing? They would need to ask his sword if it agreed!

"Brother Ye, leave one alive!"

Just as Ye Han’s eyes were crimson with killing intent, a voice like a siren’s song suddenly came from behind.

Ye Han’s hand trembled, his thrust sword veered just a fraction, narrowly missing the opponent’s heart and instead piercing a hole straight through his body.

The fallen masked man writhed in pain on the ground.

He looked up in shock, scarcely believing his own ears! Turning slowly, he indeed saw that familiar figure standing behind him.

"Pan, Pan’er? You, you aren’t..."

Ye Han was completely stunned.

"I’m not supposed to be beneath the grape arbor, right?"

Su Pan’er gave Ye Han an embarrassed smile: "It’s a long story. Brother Ye, let’s talk inside!"

Ye Han’s heart, which had seemed dead, suddenly came back to life. Watching the energetic Su Pan’er hop about, he followed her woodenly into a room at the adjacent farm.

"Don’t worry, we should receive news in a little while."

Su Pan’er gestured for him to sit down on a chair.

In the short time that followed, Ye Han had figured out the crux of the matter.

"So, all of this today was a strategy you devised; your purpose for coming to the farm was to lure the snake out of its hole? You unexpectedly used your own life as bait? That’s far too risky!"

Ye Han suddenly became angry, his brows furrowed tightly: "For such a serious matter, why didn’t you discuss it with me in advance and even intentionally concealed it from me! Do you find this sort of game amusing?"

It was rare for him to speak to Su Pan’er with such sharpness.

Su Pan’er was also somewhat baffled, her smile fading: "Brother Ye, there’s no need to worry. The decision to come to the farm was made on the spur of the moment, but the plan to draw the snake out had been prepared a long time ago. It was absolutely foolproof, otherwise, I would not have taken such a big risk."

"Foolproof? Ha, what if those people had acted quickly and really struck down? Even if you had managed to escape, what about the Crown Prince in your arms? If something had happened to him, what would you do then? What would His Majesty do? What would happen to the kingdom of Great Zhou!"

Ye Han pressed forward relentlessly with his questions, causing Su Pan’er to back away step by step.

"Brother Ye, you’re wrong. I might gamble with my own life, but I would never risk the child’s life. Look..."

Su Pan’er suddenly opened up the swaddling she’d been clutching tightly, revealing the contents within. A pillow was wrapped inside the swaddling, tied near the top with a ribbon decorated with baby clothes. At a cursory glance, swaddled up, it did indeed look like a real baby.

"That’s still unacceptable!"

Ye Han’s face was iron as he stood and headed outside: "Since these people were able to find out about your secret departure and send assassins, it’s clear that there must be other spies in the court. The safety of the Crown Prince in the palace is also at risk. We must return quickly to prevent the disaster from spreading."

"Rest assured! That disaster will not spread any further."

As Su Pan’er opened her mouth to speak, another voice arose from outside the door.
