Chapter 231 Encounter the dead and return to Beijing quickly
"Departure? Don't you want to sleep? Are you leaving again?"
Princess Shengya, who was admiring the stars alone, raised her voice a little higher. Are these people tough? After a day's journey, they are not tired, and the horses are almost exhausted.
"I won't leave. I want to rest and sleep. You can't abuse the messenger."
Bai Xiao suddenly looked around cautiously and whispered:
"Ms. Nan, we just learned that people have died in this forest, there are many ghosts and ghosts, and crows are here all year round."
When Bai Xiao said this, the crows chirped in unison, scaring Princess Shengya so much that she got goosebumps all over her body.
Originally, she was surrounded by experts, so she didn't think the crow's cries were so scary, but no matter how skilled she was, she couldn't guard against ghosts.
Princess Shengya touched her arm and suddenly felt a sinister wind.
"Our master, we are all thinking about Miss Nan's safety. The city ahead is not far away. Why don't we go into the city and make repairs."
Princess Shengya reacted and asked with raised eyebrows:
"Isn't there a city next to it? Why go to the next city?"
"Miss Nan doesn't know something. There has just been a drought here. The city is full of victims. Our master is afraid of hurting Miss Nan."
The master wants to maintain his aloof aura, so the job of communicating with the unruly princess can only fall to him, his personal bodyguard.
Fortunately, the master's beauty trap can still be of some use. He can complete the task without any danger every time.
It's just that Princess Shengya didn't know the inside story, but she often misunderstood that Jun Lingyun was just not good at expressing herself, but actually he had her best interests in mind.
Just like this moment, Princess Shengya really put away her eldest lady's temper. She couldn't let Jun Lingyun think that she was ignorant.
"Qingjuan, Zicjuan, help this young lady get on the carriage."
Bai Xiao exhaled, it was just a temporary measure, the master would not blame him.
Being too close to Li City, Jun Hongyan might have noticed it, so instead of taking the main road, they took a small road to the next city.
Unexpectedly, not long after they left the confines of Li City, Jun Lingyun suddenly stretched out his hand and motioned for everyone to stop.
Princess Shengya was feeling dizzy in the carriage. When she opened the curtain, she saw that Jun Lingyun's attendants had all dismounted and put their ears to the ground.
"Master, there are forty or fifty people riding towards us on horseback."
"hidden."
Jun Lingyun ordered that no matter who the other party was, it was not a good idea to meet him head-on. The group immediately hid from the side of the forest on the path.
"What happened?"
Princess Shengya didn't know why and asked the maid next to her in a low voice.
"Miss, there are many people coming towards us, and it seems that they are coming with bad intentions. You must not leave this slave."
Except for Princess Shengya, who did not know martial arts, everyone drew their swords and stood ready.
Jun Lingyun even hid in front of her in a protective manner.
Princess Shengya was overjoyed. In her opinion, this thrilling scene was not so scary.
How could she not know that Jun Lingyun, the Prince of War God, was famous. Princess Shengya pursed her lips and smiled. Jun Lingyun was really reassuring.
Jun Lingyun was fully on guard, but he didn't know that Princess Shengya behind him was in daydream again.
In just one cup of tea, forty or fifty people came rushing over, all dressed in black, almost blending into the dark night.
On the path they had just walked, they suddenly stopped and looked around with sharp eyes.
The leader suddenly looked towards the direction where Jun Lingyun and Princess Shengya were hiding.
Qingjuan and Zijuan felt nervous. Oh no, the princess couldn't hide her aura, so she must have been discovered. The opponent's aura was calm, and they all looked like masters.
If we fight them several times, once we fight, it will probably be a tough battle.
Just when they were gripping the swords in their hands, ready to fight at any time, the man in black at the head withdrew his gaze and waved his hand forward.
These men in black just walked away without paying any attention to their intentions.
Princess Shengya, who had been stared at for a while, broke out in a cold sweat. When there was no sound at all, Jun Lingyun and others were relieved of their guard, and they dared to take a good breath.
"Who are those people? Your Yunxiao Kingdom is too chaotic. In the middle of the night, robbers are running rampant."
Besides thieves who rob someone in the dark, who else would stay up in the middle of the night and run around in black clothes?
"Master, they clearly discovered us, but they didn't take action. I wonder why they went there?"
Although Bai Xiao was puzzled, he also knew that with so many masters in black acting together, things would definitely not be simple.
At first he thought that his master's whereabouts had been exposed, but now it seemed that was not the case.
Jun Lingyun squinted at the end of the path, where Li City was located, and the only person in Li City who was worthy of dispatching so many masters was Jun Hongyan.
Jun Lingyun raised his eyes suddenly, "A dead soldier of the Xiao family! Duke Xiao Guo in the capital could not sit still."
Regardless of his father's imperial edict, Jun Hongyan must be asked to return to the capital quickly. The reason can only be one reason: Duke Xiao is planning to usurp the throne!
He then thought about it, it seemed better. As long as Xiao Guogong rebelled, he could kill Jun Hongyan and Xiao Guogong at the same time. After solving Jun Hongyan, he would have to find another opportunity to deal with Xiao Guogong's old fox.
However, if Jun Hongyan returns to the capital first, Xiao Guogong will definitely besiege the capital. He is thinking of entering the capital quietly, which may be difficult.
Jun Lingyun suddenly turned around to look at Princess Shengya and asked:
"Princess, can your maid know how to ride a horse?"
Princess Shengya was stunned. Jun Lingyun had always called her the messenger or Miss Nan. This was the first time he called her princess. It could be seen that she was in a critical situation.
She also became a little more serious and nodded.
"Qingjuan and Zijuan have been practicing martial arts since they were young, so they know how to ride a horse."
"Very good." Jun Lingyun nodded with satisfaction.
"From now on, I have wronged the princess and ride with you on the same horse as your maid."
We must rush back to the capital as quickly as possible.
"What?"
Princess Shengya looked at her comfortable carriage and couldn't believe that Jun Lingyun would let her ride a horse for such a long distance.
Although she can also ride a horse, if she really has to ride for such a long time, will she still need the skin and flesh on her legs?
Uncharacteristically, Jun Lingyun withdrew her aloofness, looked directly into the eyes of Princess Shengya, and said solemnly:
"Princess, to be honest, I'm in trouble. If you can't keep up with me, I will definitely make a choice between you and the capital. I hope that the princess can bear the pain for a while, and when I get to the capital, I will
I will definitely compensate the princess."
Princess Shengya had never been looked at so solemnly and directly by Jun Lingyun. At this moment, she just felt that because of those eyes that were brighter than the stars, she should nod in agreement with him.
What kind of trouble can a prince of a country encounter? It's nothing more than fighting for power and brotherly killing each other. Although she is willful, she was also born in a royal family, how could she not understand.
Thinking about what she was about to experience, she was a little nervous, but also a little eager to try. This was a completely different life from her past.
What's more, Jun Lingyun also promised to compensate her when he gets to the capital. Compensation? She is looking forward to it very much.
Qingjuan and Zijuan were afraid that Princess Shengya would lose her temper. How could Princess Shengya, a delicate and expensive princess, ride a horse for a long distance? But when they saw their princess, they nodded with a silly smile.
