Chapter 655: 326: The Linhai Army is annihilated! Save Turing Si!_3

But Gui Qinbi really had no way to deal with him, who made Yan Tingyi the bridge between the Gui Family of Linhai City and Prime Minister Yan Wuji?

"Forget about the face, go for the meat," Gui Qinbi said. "I’ve decided, I’ll take the second route, withdraw from Linhai City and join forces with my father’s army at sea."

Immediately, Yan Tingyi bowed and said, "Princely Heir is wise!"

Gui Qinbi’s decision was indeed not easy, yet very wise.

In his view, even if Linhai City were to fall for ten days or half a month, it wouldn’t matter; being captured or killed, on the other hand, would mean losing everything.

Turing Tuo’s army of two hundred thousand had already set out, and the Su Family of Tian Shui City was on the brink of destruction; let them be wildly proud one last time before their death.

"Go get ready to withdraw to sea with me. Remember to only bring family members and absolutely do not leak this, as it would cause unrest within the city," Gui Qinbi instructed.

"Yes," Yan Tingyi replied.

"Alas, I’m going to lose face this time, but fortunately, Father will surely agree with my decision," Gui Qinbi muttered to himself. "Second brother, your incompetence really killed me."

Then, he walked towards the dungeon in the back courtyard.

If he was going to withdraw, he must take his mother, Turing Si, with him, and not leave behind any important hostages for the Suo Family.

...

In the dungeon of the Linhai City Lord’s mansion.

Turing Si had lost weight, lingering in a state of near-death ever since Gui Xingfu severely injured her a month ago.

Because Gui Xingfu deliberately didn’t fully heal her, nor did he allow her to die. He just dragged it out and used drugs to keep her mind always in a bewildered haze.

He planned to let it drag on for a year or so then report it as a natural death.

Gui Xingfu and Turing Si had loved each other for half a lifetime, always gentle and considerate. Not only had he never raised a hand against her, but he never even spoke harsh words to Turing Si, completely henpecked.

They had never quarreled or even raised their voices in their lifetime together.

Once the falling out happened, he turned completely cold-hearted and ruthless, bent on putting her to death.

So, for Turing Si, her world had collapsed too.

After marriage, she truly loved her husband to the core, filled with immense regret for her indulgence before the wedding. Gui Xingfu completely understood and trusted her, and the more magnanimous he was, the more she regretted.

Despite Turing Si’s outward arrogance and aggression, her heart was submissive and compliant toward her husband, taking their spats as bedroom fun. She loved Gui Xingfu so much, she wished she could become a piece of his flesh and fuse with his body.

However...

It was all a lie. When Gui Xingfu revealed his ferocious face, he was a thousand times more terrifying than the most venomous snake.

Turing Si still couldn’t believe that this was her husband – that for half her life, she had been sleeping next to a venomous snake. All his gentleness and consideration were nothing but a horrifying mask of deceit.

The moment they fell out, Turing Si clearly saw the bitterness and hatred in her husband’s eyes.

Gui Xingfu had never forgotten Turing Si’s pre-marital indiscretions, always harboring resentment in his heart.

In a daze, sensing someone entering the dungeon, Turing Si opened her eyes and saw Gui Qinbi.

This was the first time she had seen her son Gui Qinbi since the accident.

"Qinbi, Qinbi, you finally came. Let mother out quickly, and go save your sister," Turing Si begged as if grasping at a lifeline.

In her eyes, Gui Qinbi was the most filial and promising son.

"Mother, Gui Qinshao brought this upon herself," Gui Qinbi said. "I will take you away now to meet up with father."

Turing Si couldn’t believe her ears, and she hoarsely exclaimed, "That beast Gui Xingfu wants to send your sister to Zhi Li to be ravaged, and even plans to kill her himself, kill me."

Gui Qinbi spoke coldly, "Everything Father has done was for the sake of the Gui Family Clan."

Turing Si shivered all over, her eyes trembling as she looked at her son, then let out a blood-curdling, high-pitched laugh, "You really are the most filial and promising son of the Gui Family, just like that beast Gui Xingfu, one a big beast, the other a small beast, haha..."

Gui Qinbi frowned, took out a bottle of medicine, and forcefully poured it into his mother Turing Si’s mouth, then covered her mouth to prevent her from spitting it out.

After a struggle and shivering, Turing Si fainted.

Gui Qinbi then hoisted Turing Si onto his shoulder and walked outside.

"Foolish woman, utterly imbecile," Gui Qinbi commented coldly.

Suddenly, his gaze became restless, and then he reached out and fiercely squeezed Turing Si’s ample buttocks, sliding his hand under her skirt.

...

Half an hour later!

Gui Qinbi and Yan Tingyi, carrying the unconscious Turing Si, along with a few family members, silently fled from the main city of Linhai under the cover of night.

They were protected by only a little over a hundred samurai.

"Drive..."

Gui Qinbi and his entourage spurred their horses into a frenzied gallop, fleeing along the eastern coastline.

Once on the high seas, he would be truly safe.

If Gui Qinbi managed to get away, losing Turing Si would be a massive blow to Suo Lun’s plans!

Because undoubtedly, Gui Xingfu would immediately send Gui Qinbi to Duke Zhi Wei’s camp, and by then, capturing him would be extremely difficult.

And if Gui Qinbi escapes, it would be very hard for Gui Qinshao to legitimately become the City Lord of Linhai.

All male members of the family, including Gui Xingfu, Gui Qinbi, Gui Qinqu, and Gui Qinzhong, would have to die out completely before a woman like Gui Qinshao could rise to power.

...

Zhen Yan Princess, Zhuang Zhixuan, and Ashi Liren, among others, riding griffin beasts, had already arrived above the main city of Linhai. They were about to land at the City Lord’s Mansion to capture Gui Qinbi and rescue Turing Si.

Meanwhile, Gui Qinbi and his followers had already made a near-hundred li getaway at full gallop.

Landing at the City Lord’s Mansion would inevitably lead to another fierce battle, dragging on for half an hour, by which time catching up with Gui Qinbi and his people would be almost impossible.

Suddenly, Zhen Yan Princess’s beautiful eyes shifted, "Liren sister, my husband said that Gui Qinbi might try to escape with Turing Si, so we shouldn’t land at the City Lord’s Mansion but continue to pursue along the seaside."

Ashi Liren nodded, "We’ll do as you say."

Then, the group, riding five griffins, continued to fly eastward, seeking traces of Gui Qinbi’s escape.

Half an hour later!

Thirty li from the seaside!

Zhen Yan Princess announced, "We have spotted traces of Gui Qinbi and his people. He really is fleeing."

"Charge..." The Zhen Yan Princess drew out the Dragon Gold Sword, eyed the hundred plus samurai guarding Gui Qinbi, and ordered coldly, "Dive, draw swords, kill!"

Instantly, the five griffins swooped down toward the escaping party of Gui Qinbi.

Gui Qinbi was terrified beyond belief!
