Pei Ji left and didn't come back for three days.

Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. The servants hung mugwort on the door and sprinkled realgar.

The climate in the north is hot, and the temperature is even higher than the sweltering heat in Chang'an. Wei Yunzhu recalled that at this time every year, my sister would always order the imperial dining room to make rice dumplings with various fillings, with new patterns every year, and then send them to

To the palace lords asking for rewards.

People in the palace lined up to receive the reward, and the palace was always very lively at this time.

But today, when she looked at the desolate courtyard, she felt infinite emotion for a moment.

In the evening, when the heat wave subsided a little, Wei Yunzhu went out because she received a letter from Gu Yanyi today, and after much thought, she decided to go.

After getting on the carriage and walking to the bridge, I heard the carriage driver's "ha" sound, and the carriage stopped unexpectedly.

Wei Yunzhu almost fell down due to inertia. Cui Yue reported outside: "Miss, the road ahead is crowded and there are vendors blocking the way. If you want to pass, please wait a moment."

Wei Yunzhu responded, then opened the car curtain and looked forward. He didn't know what was going on there. It was a noisy mess.

I saw fruits and vegetables rolling to the ground, and there was some noise. It must have taken some time to clear the place. The water was blocked here, and even if you wanted to change the way, it would be difficult to turn around.

On the shore of the lake under the bridge, there is a spacious window.

The boy was placing a bowl of medicine on the table: "Sir, it's time to drink the medicine."

Gu Yanyi turned a blind eye, his handsome face was very pale and weak, and he stared intently at the carriage on the bridge, it could be said that he was looking forward to it.

The boy also followed his master's eyes and looked over. It turned out that his master's madness had relapsed!

I didn't dare to disturb him, so I could only stand aside quietly.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone brightly on the lake, and the surroundings were still filled with the chirping of cicadas, causing the heat to rise.

Wei Yunzhu looked at the situation ahead. More than a quarter of an hour had passed, but there was still no progress at all. Those vendors were so tall and powerful, did it take so long to move the goods?

There was something fishy in the girl's heart, and she was inexplicably flustered.

Then he said to Cui Yue: "Cui Yue, let's go another way."

As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp sword rushed in from the outside with a "crack" sound. It flashed past Wei Yunzhu's eyes, and then it was suddenly inserted diagonally into the wooden frame of the carriage!

Then, the vendors who were still pushing and shoving in the bustling crowd immediately drew out their sharp swords and rushed towards the carriage.

Cui Yue immediately drew his sword and rushed forward, shouting at the guard: "Protect the young lady!"

There was a chaotic fight, but unfortunately there were too many people on the other side. With a strong sword strike, the carriage was completely destroyed, and Wei Yunzhu was naturally exposed to the assassins.

The surrounding area was filled with the screams of people, figures running around, and the cries of children, all mixed together.

In the quiet room on the shore, Gu Yanyi saw the situation on the bridge. He stood up suddenly. Because he was injured, he was even a little embarrassed and wanted to run out immediately.

The young man immediately understood his intention and hurriedly knelt down in front of his master: "Sir, please don't go. The master said that you can't have any more accidents with this wound!"

Gu Yanyi was obviously panicked. He suppressed his emotions and said angrily: "Get out of the way!"

The boy didn't hesitate and hugged his leg: "Young man, I can't let you put yourself in danger!"

Gu Yanyi was worried about the situation on the bridge. He was rarely so excited: "Get out of here!"

Then he kicked the boy away and rushed out regardless, but there were passers-by fleeing outside, so he couldn't get close to the little princess's carriage immediately.

…

Wei Yunzhu looked at the assassin in front of her in horror. The machete, which was shining with cold light and dripping with blood, was raised high above her head.

But the assassin was a little strange. He saw a woman on the carriage and hesitated. This was not his target.

However, the sword is on the string, and if we don't kill people and silence them, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles.

When the knife fell, Wei Yunzhu suddenly dodged and rolled down. The severe pain made her heart drop, but she still gritted her teeth and persisted.

The assassin did not expect that such a weak woman would burst out with such power. After being thrown away, he swung his knife and attacked again. The knife suddenly appeared in front of Wei Yunzhu's eyes.

too close!

But the next second, the assassin suddenly lay on his back and fell. With a "bang" sound, the knife also fell to the ground. The girl breathed a sigh of relief and subconsciously slumped to the ground.

Cui Yue wanted to step forward and help her up, but was too disturbed by other assassins to take care of her, so he had to join the melee again.

Suddenly, the sound of a sharp arrow piercing the sky was heard. Wei Yunzhu watched the sharp arrow flying straight towards her. She tried her best to dodge, but it was still too late. The arrow barely missed her.

Shoulder!

A heart-breaking pain came, and blood poured out almost immediately, quickly staining large parts of her arms.

"Miss!"

Cui Yue killed several assassins, but when he turned around, he found that the princess was shot by a bow and arrow and injured!

He immediately turned around and pulled up the reins. He must not be reluctant to fight. He had to lead the little princess out first.

But a steady stream of assassins attacked again, and someone slashed the horse with a knife. The next moment, the horse was frightened and suddenly raised its head and jumped up, neighing in agony.

Cui Yue pulled the reins hard, trying to stop the horse from going crazy, but everything happened too fast. The horse began to spin in place, and the inertia kept throwing the carriage.

Wei Yunzhu's shoulder was injured, and she was unable to cling on, let alone maintain balance. She tried her best to grab the edge of the carriage with her fingers, but as the vibrations became stronger and stronger, she could no longer exert her strength.

Suddenly, with the roar of the horse, the girl was thrown out of the carriage and fell into the lake!

"Miss!"

"Princess Princess!"

Gu Yanyi, who kept pushing aside the crowd and running wildly, witnessed all this. His heart suddenly stopped and he shouted heartbreakingly.

He ran desperately towards the place where the girl fell, but the crowd was crowded, everything was too chaotic, and everything blocked his steps.

I have to save the princess!

Blood seeped out from his palms wrapped in thick gauze, and even had a tendency to soak through, but he was completely unaware of it.

Gu Yanyi was in pain, not because of the bleeding, but because there was nothing more painful than watching the little princess being hurt, which hurt him to the bone!

Finally, he reached the embankment. Without any hesitation, he was about to jump down, but he was suddenly hugged from behind.

"Sir, you can't do that!"

The incident of falling into the water last time was still fresh in his mind. The boy was still frightened and tried his best not to let go of him: "Sir, if you really fall into the lake, your hand will become useless! Besides, you don't know how to swim!"
