The first thousand six hundred and ninety-six chapters catch the assassin
Ye Fuxun was also tired at this time, his eyelids were trembling, and he forced himself all the way out of the palace gate, got on the carriage, and just sat firmly when he heard Lu Xia on the side calling her with a little worry: "Princess, what do you want?"
Don’t you want some tea?”
She shook her head, her head felt dizzy, and everything she heard seemed to be covered in a fog. She couldn't care about any etiquette, and she leaned against the carriage paralyzed.
I don't know when Lu Xia left. When she opened her eyes again after being dazed, she felt a bump under her body. She didn't know how long she had slept, and she was extremely thirsty.
"Lv Xia, Lu Xia, where is the tea? I want to drink water." She shouted in a daze, and for a moment she even thought she was sitting on the bed, speaking with instinct.
Someone at the side handed a cup to her lips. She half-squinted her eyes and felt that this person was not Lu Xia. She couldn't see his face clearly. Her mouth and tongue were really dry, so she pulled him over.
He drank heavily from his hand.
It wasn't until she drank a cup of tea that she realized something was wrong.
This hand is very rough, and the mouth is covered with calluses worn out by years of martial arts practice. It does not belong to a girl at all.
The coolness in her mouth instantly stimulated her to wake up, and she opened her eyes suddenly. The person sitting in front of her, holding a teacup and feeding her water, was Lu Xia. It was clearly - Xiao Zichen!
At this time, he was looking at her with an indifferent expression and the hands that were tightly held by her.
She trembled.
The tea cup suddenly lost its grip and fell to the ground and rolled over, but it didn't break.
"Prince Chen." She smiled awkwardly.
Where is Lu Xia? Where did Lu Xia go? How come when I woke up, it was him sitting next to me?
She was drowsily thinking about what happened before she fell asleep. She felt like her mind was in a state of confusion and she couldn't think of anything.
"Don't think about it. People in the palace are talkative. If someone sees that you and I are not riding in the same carriage when we leave the palace, they will gossip behind my back. I will let your maid sit in the carriage behind, so you don't have to worry."
Probably seeing what she was thinking, Xiao Zichen explained.
Ye Fuxun nodded, but for a moment she didn't know what to say. She lowered her head and intertwined her fingers. This was an action she did subconsciously when she was nervous.
Xiao Zichen glanced over by chance and his eyes were stern.
Now this Yu Siling actually has this habit?
I think it's just a coincidence.
The air was extremely quiet, and only two very light breathing sounds could be heard. Ye Fuxun felt uncomfortable all over. Just when he was about to say something, he saw Xiao Zichen's face suddenly changed, and he pulled him over and stuffed him into her body.
Down.
"careful!"
This was really sudden. Before Ye Fuxun could react, he heard a sound outside, and then Xiao Zichen directly pulled her to roll on the ground and got out of the carriage.
A short knife penetrated from the outside and was nailed directly to the position where the two of them had been.
"Come on, catch the assassin!"
"You guys are going to take the first head. The people over there have said that whoever takes the first head will be doing great things to honor our ancestors in this life!"
People from different sides shouted at the top of their lungs. At this moment, Ye Fuxun finally realized that he was being assassinated.
Who was so bold as to send an assassin openly after the banquet was over?
Who sent the assassin, and for whom did he come?
Unfortunately, she didn't have time to think through these things. Someone was already stabbing him with a mask and a knife. Xiao Zichen took the lead and drew the short blade from his body, stabbed it straight into the man's chest.
Killed on the spot.
"My lord, hurry up, let's resist these people!" the secret guards raised their swords to face the enemy and shouted.
But in the end, they were outnumbered. Although the secret guards were highly skilled in martial arts and could defeat a hundred, they were still human beings. If they were slightly behind, they would be targeted by bayonets. Seven or eighty-eight people had already suffered moderate injuries.
Xiao Zichen protected her behind him and dealt with the waves of assassins. Ye Fuxun was in a panic and could only accept it, trying not to hold him back.
The remaining sleepiness had disappeared, and drizzle fell from the sky, confusing everyone's eyes, but more and more assassins were pouring in from different directions.
If this continues, he will definitely be outnumbered and seriously injured.
There are too many assassins, as if they are just killing people just to vent their anger, without any fear of how much their own people will lose.
But in the end, she was able to see that although these people's moves were vicious, they were still worried when facing Xiao Zichen, and their swords were drawn back, as if they were unwilling to hurt him.
It's really strange.
Ye Fuxun frowned slightly and followed Xiao Zichen's steps as he walked as hard as he could. Naturally, she could see his weakness. After all, with so many people dealing with one person, no matter how powerful he was, he would still be unable to do what he wanted.
Someone took advantage of the opportunity and raised his sword to stab her. Xiao Zichen's eyes were sharp, he turned around and struck with his palm, protecting Ye Fuxun in his arms and beating the person till he vomited blood.
At this time, she finally saw who these people were dealing with.
It's her, to be precise, it's Yu Siling.
Who did it to a princess who had no power to restrain a chicken, and wanted to kill everyone?
"Your Majesty," the drizzle hit his face and he could no longer see the scenery in front of him.
She relied on instinct and said: "This group of people are coming for me. You let me go and I will lure them away. Although they have no intention of hurting you, they will get angry after all. How about I lure them away and you go..."
"Find someone to help.
"Shut up!" Two simple words instantly interrupted all her next words: "I haven't reached the point where I need a woman to save me."
There were women's sharp cries and men's tearing screams in the distance. There was a faint smell of blood in the air, and she even touched the warm liquid with her tentacles.
It's blood!
"My lord! You are hurt!" she shouted loudly.
She didn't know when she received the injury and what happened now. If she hadn't happened to touch the blood, she would have still been holding on.
This won't work. If we continue, both of us will die.
There was never a moment when she hated Yu Siling's weak body so much.
For a moment, the assassin was distracted and looked away. He no longer cared about anything and raised his sword to stab Xiao Zichen in the back. However, he was concentrating on protecting her and did not notice this.
Something whizzed by in an instant.
She screamed, no longer hiding her Kung Fu, and with one strike, the assassin was beaten until he vomited blood.
As soon as the assassins saw her leaving Xiao Zichen's body, they all raised their swords to stab her.
Xiao Zichen, who saw all this, was shocked.
Yu Siling's moves were full of familiarity, but what the spies said was that the princess of the Western Kingdom was so beautiful and weak that she didn't have any martial arts skills.
Why, when I look at it now, it's completely different.
He came back to his senses, picked up a sword from the ground and stabbed it directly. Dozens of people fell to the ground without even having a chance to raise their swords. Ye Fuxun was shocked, someone grabbed him around his waist, and then he jumped into the air.
