In less than three days, Princess Kang packed her bags and prepared to set off. Just like in her previous life, the day of departure was still the sixth day of October. The weather was excellent and cloudless.
The long traveling team stopped at the gate of Prince Kang's Mansion, and Shaoyao counted the items she carried. Kang Yanning nodded secretly, there were many more people than in the previous life. She touched the whip on her waist, and her heart gradually calmed down.
In a blink of an eye, the prince came. He was wearing a green and ink brocade dress today, and he looked much more energetic. He nodded to Prince Kang, "I will ask you to escort me on the way."
King Kang cupped his fists and said, "Prince please."
Wei Jialing turned around and met Kang Yanning's eyes. He kept things simple when he was out. Kang Yanning was not polite and smiled slightly. Wei Jialing nodded slightly and got into the first carriage.
The Western Region is vast and vast, and it will take several days to get out of the Western Region.
King Kang has guarded the Western Regions for many years. From the frequent wars in the past to the fact that the people now live and work in peace and contentment, it is all his credit, but he is also recognized and loved by the people. There is no common people in the Western Regions who do not recognize the flag of the Kang family army, so on the way to the Western Regions,
It is often seen that people give food and clothing to people. Except for the first time when Prince Wei Jialing was a little surprised, he is no longer surprised by this.
"Brother officers and soldiers, just keep it. This is the wine brewed by a small family." The people on the roadside never stepped forward to stop the car, but only held the officers and soldiers guarding the roadside. "But..." Huo Hua was a little confused.
He hesitated and was about to explain that he was not the Kang family army.
"Huo Hua, take it." A male voice came from the carriage next to Huo Hua. He lowered his voice and sounded gentle. "Since it is a gift from the people, it proves that King Kang is deeply loved. So... we will
Accept it for King Kang. Cough...cough..." After saying that, he started coughing again.
"Yes." Huo Hua took the wine handed over by the people and thanked him, "Thank you then."
Kang Yanning put down the curtain and whispered to Princess Kang on the carriage, "I didn't expect the prince to be so approachable and willing to accept things from the people."
Princess Kang was closing her eyes to rest her mind, "They say that the prince is very similar to the late empress, and they are extremely benevolent."
Kang Yanning nodded. When she was the third prince's concubine, she heard Wei Jiaxiao say when he was drunk that the Holy Emperor had a deep affection for the late Queen. Even the current favorite concubine Yi Fei got the Holy King because she looked a little like the First Queen.
Qingyan. If he was born to a prince, how could he put so much effort into planning and fighting for the throne?
It is said that the Holy Emperor loved the late empress so much that he gave the crown prince the title of crown prince when he was a child. But when he got older, he loved the throne even more, so he turned a blind eye to the prince's seizure of the throne and only wanted to maintain the stability of the throne.
Kang Yanning sighed in her heart that although the prince had a noble status, he was also a pitiful person.
After traveling in the Western Regions for another two days, we gradually approached the border of the Western Regions. If we wanted to get from the Western Regions to the capital, we had to bypass a deep mountain before we could get to the next posthouse to rest. The Kang family's carriages and horses sneaked into the mountains in great force.
As the sky gets darker, the mountain road gradually becomes more and more rugged. In the past, Kang Yanning was still teasing Princess Kang happily on the carriage, but today, for some reason, she became quiet.
Everything was completely silent. The only sounds in the mountains echoed were the sound of horses stepping on dead leaves and the twisting of carriage wheels. There was also a chilly smell in the air.
King Kang had been fighting for many years, and his first reaction was wrong. He squinted and looked at the surrounding terrain. The mountains and mountains were very easy to ambush. He and Kang Yanyu looked at each other, and Kang Yanyu slowly backed away, retreated to the carriage of the prince's horse, and whispered, "Prince
Your Highness, there may be danger here, so I am here to protect you."
Wei Jialing's voice came through the curtain, "Thank you." Kang Yanyu said no more, holding her sword tightly, and she and Huo Hua surrounded the carriage, looking around cautiously.
Suddenly, a long whistle pierced the sky. The light of the torches merged into one, and the official road suddenly became noisy. One after another "killing" came from all directions and resounded through the sky.
The terrain here was complicated, and King Kang could not tell how many enemies there were, but the prince did not dare to take risks here. He shouted loudly, "All guards, protect the prince!" He then drove his horse deep into the enemy's hinterland to lure away the enemy's attack.
Here it comes! Kang Yanning's heart was beating fast. She was a little nervous and a little scared. It seemed that even if she brought the prince along with her, she still couldn't escape this incident. This group of people came from the Kang family!
She clenched her fists and encouraged herself in her heart. This was the first step to change her life. She could never back down.
Kang Yanning tightly protected Princess Kang behind her. Listening to the movement outside, she lifted the curtain and stretched out her hand to the maid outside. "You all come up." A group of unarmed women were waiting to die outside. After she pulled the maid up, the carriage
It's been overcrowded.
"You guys stay here and protect the princess. No matter what happens outside, don't run around. I will protect you outside."
Princess Kang was so frightened that her branches trembled. When she saw her, she raised the curtain again and was about to jump out of the car. She quickly stopped her and said, "Kang Ning, where are you going? It's dangerous outside!"
"Mom, stay here, I'm right outside!" Kang Yanning jumped out of the carriage, pulled out his whip and hit the bandit who was fighting with the guard next to him with a "snap" sound, knocking the bandit to the ground.
Facing the wind, she gradually calmed down as soon as she took action, and she was no longer afraid. She would not let anyone get close to the carriage.
Not far away, there were not many thieves around the carriage of Prince Wei Jialing. However, King Kang, who was at the front of the team, was besieged by many people in order to distract the thieves. Wei Jialing saw that King Kang was alone in the dangerous area, and shouted loudly, "Jiayu,
Huo Hua, go help King Kang, I don't need so many people here, these guards are enough."
Kang Jiayu had been worried when she saw King Kang being besieged. When she heard what the prince said, she immediately replied, "I can go alone. Lord Huo Hua will be here to protect the prince." After saying that, he ran away.
Although Kang Jiayu immediately joined the battle, there were still more than twenty people attacking King Kang, and Kang Jiayu was unable to break through from the outside.
Wei Jialing shouted again, "Huo Hua! Go."
"Prince, you can't be alone by your side." Huo Hua also saw King Kang being besieged, and was a little anxious. But His Highness the Prince was already weak, and he couldn't be without people in this situation. He was extremely annoyed, and he only hated Huo Yu for this.
Didn't come this time.
"This is my order." Wei Jialing coughed twice, his voice serious.
Seeing that Wei Jialing was angry, Huo Hua did not dare to disobey him, so he flew in and blocked King Kang's blow with his sword. He could only raise the sword and drop it, hoping to fight quickly and return to the prince's side as soon as possible.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, I saw that the first carriage was sparsely guarded. The nearest masked bandit, who looked like a leader, actually rushed towards the prince with a knife and was three points closer. The few guards could not stop him.
Unable to resist the bandit's arrogant sword skills, many of them died under his sword. In the blink of an eye, there was no one guarding the prince's place, only a lonely carriage.
Seeing that the masked bandit was getting closer and closer to the prince, Huo Hua was so anxious that he just wanted to get away but was entangled by other bandits.
The masked bandits were getting closer and closer. His eyes lit up and he was secretly happy. I could encounter such a good thing here. If I killed the prince, it would be a godsend for me.
He quickened his steps and arrived in front of the carriage. Just as he was raising his hand to stab the carriage, he suddenly heard a "whoosh" sound in his ear. Kang Yanning's whip hit the masked bandit's hand, shaking off the hilt.
.
His wrist hurt, but he did not fight back immediately, but immediately picked up the sword. The most important thing was to assassinate the prince, the opportunity was not to be missed!
Kang Yanning was whipped, and found that the masked bandit still wanted to assassinate him, knowing that he wanted to kill him.
Kang Yanning was well aware of her own disadvantages, and she was not sure that the leader of the thieves would be killed in one blow. She saw that King Kang had the upper hand, and now she only needed to buy time.
Kang Yanning immediately raised his whip, and when the thief leader wanted to take a step further, he whipped the horse hard. The horse neighed in pain, knocked down the thief leader with his hoofs, and ran forward.
Kang Yanning didn't dare to stay. When she saw that her brother had broken through the encirclement, she immediately ran forward and got on the horse. "Drive..." Growing up in the Western Region, she had been good at riding since she was a child. She pulled the horse's reins hard, holding the horse's belly,
The horse quickly chased forward, and the sound of wind blew in his ears.
Wei Jialing's horse was frightened, and it galloped forward wildly, almost reaching the edge of the cliff. The horse was pulling at high speed, and the carriage with it was crumbling. If he ran a few steps forward, he might have thrown the prince off the cliff.
.
Prince Wei Jialing seemed not to know that he was about to die. Through the hollow carvings of the carriage window, he calmly looked at the figure behind him who was waving his whip desperately and getting closer and closer to him.
She was dressed in red today and was constantly waving the reins on the horse. The horse was chasing her desperately under her hands. Her expression was determined, and the gravel splashed by the horse's hooves seemed to have cut the corners of her eyes, leaving a drop of blood along the way.
She fell, but she didn't seem to notice, and just ran forward regardless, as if she was risking her life.
Wei Jialing suddenly felt a little funny. It turned out that not everyone in the world wanted his life, but there were people who were eager to save him.
Kang Yanning, who was only focused on chasing, did not see that some people in the woods not far away were also rushing towards us, faster than Kang Yanning on horseback.
Wei Jialing gently put down his hand and flicked his fingers in the air. The people in the woods stopped abruptly, bowed and then returned to the forest.
Wei Jialing leaned back slightly on the carriage, watching Kang Yanning finally run up to him on a fast horse. She panted slightly from exhaustion, but did not stop at all. When Wei Jialing's carriage was about to fall into the cliff, she pulled out her whip and hooked it.
The horse's head was pulled back, and the horse neighed, "Hey..." and stopped in pain.
At this time, Wei Jialing was seriously thinking about what the beauty would usually say after the hero saves the beauty in the picture book that Yu'er likes to read.
Kang Yanning pulled the whip, stopped the horse, quickly approached the carriage, got on the carriage and checked. There was no movement in the carriage for so long. She was afraid that something might happen to the prince.
She raised the fingertips and opened the curtain with a "swish", only to see the graceful prince weakly leaning on the carriage in the corner, his eyes were red, and his eyes lit up when he looked at her, "I can't repay the kindness of saving my life."
