Li Rui's revenge on her was all Lu Wan's expectation.

So, she was not panicked at all, and looked at the ferocious man in front of her calmly, and said, "Your Highness Rui is so anxious to deduct me accusation, and want to avenge my personal revenge?"

Compared to Li Rui's anger, Lu Wan sat calmly and looked him up and down without any concealment.

He saw that he was chasing off the assassin and chasing him directly. His body was covered with blood, and even blood stains were left on his face. His robe was cut into several parts, describing him as though he was quite embarrassed.

This is the first time His Highness, who has always been noble and elegant, is so embarrassed.

Lu Wan's mouth suddenly felt a sarcastic smile.

Seeing her blatant provocation to her, Li Rui's expression suddenly became more and more cruel, and he gritted his teeth and said with hatred: "Lu Wan, did you summon those assassins just now?"

Lu Wan said, "Your Highness Rui is so proud of me. If I had such ability, I wouldn't have even dared to bully me even a cousin."

The cousin Lu Wan said naturally refers to Chen Yuan.

Li Rui suddenly heard Lu Wan mention her, and his expression suddenly stopped and his face became even more ugly.

"So before your highness adds a crime to me, you must also think clearly. Will anyone believe the crime you add to me if you tell me?"

"Just like this outrageous crime, your highness will not only not believe it, but will also insult your highness' reputation, so that everyone thinks that your highness cannot catch the assassin, so they will spread their anger on me and spread it, which will damage your highness's reputation."

At that time, it was already late, and the afterglow of the sunset shone through the car window on Lu Wan. Her face could not hide her fatigue because of the back and forth, but her starry eyes were shining brightly, revealing the light of wisdom.

Her calm demeanor made Li Rui feel guilty.

Seeing that she was not at all panic, Li Rui smiled angrily and said, "I have known you for so long, but I never knew you were so sharp-tongued, but don't forget that you used a weapon to force me and stab me in public. I looked at it with countless eyes and you couldn't escape."

"And this time, Li Yi cannot protect himself, so don't think he will come to help you again."

After saying that, he ordered someone to take Lu Wan back to the city.

Lu Wan said coldly: "I dare not bother Your Highness, if I take the blame for your Highness, I will enter the palace to apologize to the emperor."

After saying that, he ordered Wu Ming, "Wu Ming, enter the palace."

But how could Li Rui let her go easily?

And he also knew very well that her apology on her own was very different from hiring her back and pleading her guilty.

In this way, he led people to stop in front of the carriage and threatened, "Don't force me to tie your hands and feet to take you away, I have left you with a face."

Lu Wan did not give in and smiled indifferently: "I am the princess personally appointed by the emperor. Before the emperor condemns me, if your highness wants to force me, I can only fight for this life to protect my innocence."

"And I said before, it would be unfair if Your Highness missed a great future because of something wrong with me."

Li Rui looked at her decisively and did not dare to force her again for a moment.

At a stalemate between the two sides, they came from behind, and it was Nie Zhan and his subordinate Yan Hu.

As soon as he saw Nie Zhan, Li Rui thought of him letting Lu Wan's carriage out of the city, and became even more angry, and sneered coldly: "Where is General Nie coming from?"

Nie Zhan rushed forward and reported to him: "Nie followed the princess' carriage out of the city. Now he has found the assassin's escape route. He came back to report to His Highness and asked His Highness to take people to pursue him quickly."

But at this time, Li Rui no longer believed him.

He curled his lips and laughed sarcastically, "The person was let go by General Nie. Now he is going to arrest him again. Is General Nie living too leisurely, or is he pretending to be a fool?"

Nie Zhan was not angry and said, "The assassin held the young master and Princess Jiahe from the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion hostage. The two lives were in his hands. Nie did not dare to force him to stop them, so he could only let them go first, then follow them, and make plans only after the hostages were safe. Nie's move was not wrong."

"You..." Li Rui was about to get angry, but Lu Wan said to Nie Zhan:

"General Nie, my brother and I were held hostage by the assassin. Now we are going to go to the palace to report this to the emperor. But I don't know if there will be any assassins and fellow party members who will rush to retaliate along the way, so I want to ask General Nie to escort our brothers into the city. Is General Nie willing?"

Nie Zhan didn't even look at Li Rui, and responded in one go.

"Since Nie is the commander of the imperial guards, protecting the safety of the princess is exactly what Nie is responsible for!"

After saying that, he looked back at Li Rui with a dark face and said, "Nie escorted the princess back to Beijing. The assassin fled to Changhua Temple. Your Highness hurriedly took people to chase him. If it was too late, he might let him run away."

Li Rui looked at the two of them with a cold look, and finally sneered coldly.

Lu Wan couldn't escape in the end, but it's important to catch the assassin now.

As long as the assassin is caught and Li Yi is confirmed, he has the opportunity to retaliate against Lu Wan.

Thinking of this, he regained his expression and said to Nie Zhan: "Okay, I will see General Nie's feelings today, let her go."

After saying that, he took people to evacuate and went to Changhua Temple to chase the fallen shadow...

As soon as Li Rui left, Lu Wan said to Nie Zhan: "Thank you for your kind help, General."

Nie Zhan looked at her with a steady look and said, "You are frightened today, I'll take you back."

Lu Wan said: "It was just in order to get rid of King Rui's entanglement that he had to involve the general. Now that there is nothing wrong, I won't bother with the general."

Nie Zhan is very gentle, but he doesn't hide it. He said bluntly: "I originally followed your carriage out of the city to protect the girl. Now I naturally have to escort you back safely to be relieved."

After saying that, he signaled Wu Ming to drive away.

Along the way, he and Yan Hu were guarding the carriage one by one. After walking for a while, they couldn't help but look back at the carriage.

Because the curtain of the car was pulled off by Li Rui, the carriage Lu Wan was riding now had a wide door. When he turned around, he could see Lu Wan in the carriage.

The gold droops in the west, and the light of the afterglow dissipates little by little on the horizon. As day and night alternate, Lu Wan's face is hidden in the light and shadows of half light and not dark, sometimes bright and sometimes dark, with a hazy beauty.

Nie Zhan's throat was dry, and his heart was burning like boiling water. His nose was filled with the smell of dust on the official road, but he seemed to smell a faint fragrance of soap flowers.

He didn't realize that he had been watching this for a long time.

Lu Wan was holding his sleeping younger brother in his arms, and he happened to look up and see him.

Nie Zhan quickly avoided his eyes, swallowed his throat, and reminded Yan Hu: "It's going to be night soon, be careful to prevent any assassins from lying in ambush with the party around him."

Yan Hu responded and couldn't help but mutter. He turned around and told him countless times along the way, and his ears were almost calloused.

The general never says twice, but today he says a lot. He is just a few words, mother-in-law and mother...

At night, the carriage came to the city gate successfully. Just as it was about to enter the city, Nie Zhan in front suddenly stopped, took off his cloak, and hung it on the carriage door.
