After a few arrows were fired, it stopped. There was no movement in the entire palace outside, and no assassins were seen rushing in.
Yan Ruocheng took a look and felt it was safe. She reached out and patted Huang Chenling and Huang Fengmo who were still holding her, and said, "There seems to be no movement outside. Let's hide in the back hall quickly."
Huang Chenling pushed Yan Ruocheng to Huang Fengmo and said, "You go and hide first, I'll stay and wait for someone to come over."
"No, why are you staying here to wait for the assassins? Let's hide together." Yan Ruozhen quickly grabbed Huang Chenling's arm, not allowing him to leave.
"You still have something to do, don't mess it up, and obey me!" Huang Chenling wanted to withdraw her arm, but Yan Ruocheng locked it tightly and frowned at him, refusing to let go.
"Ruozhao, please stop making trouble. Chen Ling and I have already discussed it yesterday. He will be used as bait here. The shadow guards will protect him. Let's hide first." Huang Fengmo explained.
Yan Ruocheng pulled Huang Chenling's clothes tightly, and finally let go.
Worried, he followed Huang Fengmo into the back hall.
Soon, several masked men in strange clothes came in.
"Why did it take you so long to show up?" Huang Chenling sat on the ground and said calmly.
The masked man didn't have any negotiation with him, he just took the weapon and wanted to attack him.
Huan jumped in from all the windows and doors with other shadow guards to protect Huang Chenling.
The two groups started fighting immediately.
Huang Chenling took the opportunity to slowly move her body to slip away.
After one of the masked men with strong martial arts skills knocked down several shadow guards, he jumped over and grabbed his foot, which happened to be his injured foot. With a strong squeeze, Huang Chenling rolled on the ground in pain.
Yan Ruozhen came back with a vase at some point, and directly hit the masked man with the vase, snatching Huang Chenling's feet from his hand.
"Why are you back? Didn't I tell you to hide?" Huang Chenling asked angrily.
"Hide from you! There are assassins in the back hall, and His Highness is still fighting with the assassins there. If I don't come back to save you, if anything happens to you, how will I explain it to Xiaoling?" Yan Ruocheng became even more angry.
said.
"Anyway, you have already said that I am dead in front of the child. It doesn't matter whether you explain or not." Huang Chenling said angrily.
"I just pushed you away. Is it necessary for you to be so angry now? You stingy man!" Yan Ruozhen saw that the masked man behind him was about to attack him with a knife.
She hugged him behind her and blocked him with her back. The big knife hit her back hard and cut a piece of her clothes.
"Ruozhao!" Huang Chenling watched helplessly as she was struck by a knife.
Huan Fei came over and kicked the masked man away a foot away, and said to them: "Go quickly! Don't stay here and get in the way!"
Huang Chenling hugged Yan Ruocheng tightly, who had her head lowered, and called her in fear: "Ruocheng! Ruocheng! Why are you so stupid?"
"You're stupid! Get up quickly, why are you still holding me and crying in mourning? I'll carry you away." Yan Ruocheng raised her head and pushed him as if nothing had happened. Her back was fine and there was no sign of injury, because
She had already worn an iron shirt underneath.
Before Huang Chenling could react, she had already picked him up and fled the scene quickly.
Yan Ruozhen carried him on her back and took a detour because she saw from a distance that Huang Fengmo and several shadow guards were surrounded and started fighting on the other side of the corridor.
She quietly took Huang Chenling and hid in the wing. After closing the door and windows tightly, she said, "It should be safe here. You stay here and don't go out. I'm going to save His Highness."
Huang Chenling had no time to call her, she had already closed the door and ran out.
Soon, the door was pushed open, and he thought Yan Ruocheng was back.
Lan Lan appeared in front of him dressed in black.
"It's you." Huang Chenling said, and she sprinkled a piece of sweat medicine powder on him.
After Huang Chenling inhaled it, her vision went dark and she fainted.
The situation outside, "Your Highness, be careful!" Yan Ruocheng rushed over and blocked Huang Fengmo's knife with his back. Huang Fengmo was furious, kicked the enemy away, and hurriedly checked the injury on her back.
"It's okay, I'm wearing an iron shirt." Yan Ruocheng said proudly.
"It's weird!" Huang Fengmo touched the back of her neck. His hands were covered in blood. The big knife just now even scratched the back of her neck.
"Oops, I forgot that there is nothing to block my neck!" Yan Ruocheng only realized it later and started to feel a stinging pain.
Huang Fengmo quickly picked her up and hid in the bushes on the side.
"Don't move, it's already bleeding." He tore off his robe and helped her press the knife mark on the back of her neck.
"It's just a few scratches, nothing serious." Yan Ruocheng said awkwardly.
"Shut up!" Huang Fengmo's face was dark and he held her tightly in his arms without saying a word.
"Your Highness, how long are we going to hide like this?" she asked softly.
"Until the fight is finished outside." Huang Fengmo said angrily.
On the other hand, Lan Lan took Huang Chenling on a carriage and had already transported him to the tribe, and arranged for the tribe's witch doctors to help treat his injuries.
"Lanlan, you said that this man is your rightful son. Do you know that he is the current sage?" said the patriarch, Tu Xicheng.
"Dad, the witch doctor said that there is an ancient witchcraft that can purify his mind, shape another memory of him, and make him reborn as another person. By then, he will no longer be the current saint, but will only be my man.
" Lanlan explained confidently.
"I hope the witch doctor can do all this. Dad helped you this time and came forward to help you. Let Fan Xuulisuotu also help you." The clan leader Tu Bicheng said with a sigh.
"Dad, thank you."
"It's okay, you are my good daughter."
An hour later, the assassins were repulsed, and Yan Ruocheng and the others discovered that Huang Chenling had disappeared.
"What should we do now? Chen Ling was captured by them!" Yan Ruocheng said as he looked out the window in confusion.
"Shadow guards have been sent to rescue him, and he should be rescued soon. Don't worry too much, come here and take care of the wound." Huang Fengmo walked over to her and said, holding the golden medicine.
"How can we not be worried? If I had known you had these plans, I would have knocked him out and taken him to the inn to take refuge with Na Xiao." Yan Ruocheng said with confidence.
"You only worry about Chen Ling, not me." Huang Fengmo said unhappily.
"Your Highness, you are here alone. What is there to worry about? I am worried about whether Chen Ling will be beaten by them or how they will treat him. After they know that he is the Holy Emperor, they may force him to do terrible things.
Not necessarily." The more Yan Ruocheng thought about it, the more worried he became.
"It'll be okay. I've arranged for the shadow guards to sneak into the tribe, and there should be news back soon. Just come over and apply the medicine, and take a rest." After Huang Fengmo finished speaking, he directly poured the medicine bottle in his hand.
fell on the wound on the back of her neck.
"It hurts——!" Yan Ruocheng screamed in pain.
"Your Highness, the whole bottle of Jin Chuang medicine powder is not poured down! It stings to death!" She said even more angrily.
"Why did you keep refusing to come over and apply the medicine? So I had no choice but to pour it directly." Huang Fengmo ignored her muttering, picked up the white cloth and bandaged her neck.
After bandaging, she hit her bald head again. Because her head was bald, the blow made a special sound, like a click.
"Your Highness, I hurt my neck and you hit me on the head."
"If you don't want me to hit you on the head, come here and sit down obediently. Don't stand by the window blowing the wind." Huang Fengmo pulled her to the chair and sat down.
Later, the shadow guards came to report the situation to him.
"How's it going? Is there any news from the Holy One?"
"Reporting to His Highness the First Prince, Master Huan asked me to come back and report that the Holy One has not been found yet. There is no movement at all from the tribe."
"We can't find anyone and there's no movement, so what are you here to report?" Yan Ruocheng spoke up before Huang Fengmo and said angrily.
The shadow guard glanced at her but didn't say anything. Huang Fengmo waved his hand and said, "Please step back."
"Yes." The shadow guard disappeared with a whoosh.
"Ruocheng, please don't work so hard, okay?"
"No, I'm too worried about him. I always have an ominous premonition and worry that something terrible will happen." She clenched her fists tightly and walked around restlessly.
"Even if something terrible happens, we will face it together. I believe in Chen Ling's good fortune, and his luck will never be too bad." Huang Fengmo said comfortingly.
At night, Yan Ruozhen couldn't sleep at all, because he was too worried about Huang Chenling. At dawn, he quietly left the mansion, disguised as a tribesman, and planned to go into the big tribe to find Huang Chenling's whereabouts.
In the early morning, when the guards of the big tribe were changing, she took advantage of people's laziness to sneak into the people carrying hay and successfully entered the center of the big tribe.
People here live very ordinary lives, and there is no sign of rebellion at all.
Yan Ruocheng was worried that he might be looking in the wrong direction, so he walked around here without a clue and went around several times.
Until Huan, who was monitoring the movements of the tribe in the tree, discovered her existence.
While she was walking under the tree, he shot out a trap hook and hooked her up into the tree.
"Ruozhi, why are you here?" Huan took her to a place where no one was around and started chatting.
"There's no need to ask. Come find Chen Ling. Wasn't he arrested and brought here?" Yan Ruocheng said.
"Just leave it to me. Go back quickly." Huan said helplessly.
"No, I'm worried about him, and I want to help find him. Based on my intuition, I will find him faster than you." Yan Ruocheng said seriously without knowing where he was confident.
"You should stop causing trouble. If they find you sneaking in, they might alert others." Huan shook his head and said.
"As long as I keep a low profile, who would pay attention to an ordinary woman?" Yan Ruocheng said.
"Are you ordinary? There is no bald woman in this tribe. Do you think you are a nun and come in to beg for alms?" Huan said helplessly.
"Yes, when I was caught, I just said that I came here to beg for alms." Yan Ruocheng said with a smile.
