The guard heard this and quickly stopped him, "Your Majesty, stay! Your Majesty, please wait!"
"Now that King Han has returned to the capital, word has spread, and all eyes are staring at it. It's inappropriate for you to show up at this time!"
Hong Ye waved his hand and strode out, "What's wrong? My prince and King Han are good friends. If he wants to return to the capital, I should naturally go out of the city to welcome him!"
Seeing that they could not stop Hong Ye at all, the guards could only hurriedly report to Marquis Zhongyong.
Hong Ye left the Zhongyong Hou Mansion directly, left the capital, and rode towards Jiangning City!
He doesn't believe the rumors, he only believes what he sees with his own eyes!
Although Chu Han didn't say anything clearly when he left, everyone could guess that he was going to find Xie Yao.
It doesn’t matter if Chu Han doesn’t bring back Xie Yao, but if it’s a new love, he will break up with Chu Han!
On the other side, the guards reported Hong Ye's departure from the city to Marquis Zhongyong.
Marquis Zhongyong looked indifferent, "King Han is his good friend. Since he wants to welcome you, let him go."
…
On the other side, Xie Yao and others also rode a carriage and headed quickly towards the capital.
There was silence in Xie Yao and Chu Han's carriage.
Chu Han leaned aside, with his eyes closed and breathing evenly.
Xie Yao looked at Chu Han's peerless appearance and suddenly felt a little dazed.
When he left the capital without saying goodbye, he was already prepared to never see Chu Han again.
As a result, just over half a year later, she came back with Chu Han.
Things are really unpredictable.
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she chuckled self-deprecatingly.
Just as he was about to turn his eyes and look outside, Chu Han's voice came, "I suddenly laughed out loud because I thought of something happy?"
Xie Yao looked back and curled her lips, "You're not asleep?"
"I fell asleep, but I was restless. I always felt like someone was watching me secretly." A smile spread from the corner of Chu Han's mouth, filling his already peerless face with friendly sunshine, like an immortal.
Xie Yao coughed and continued to look outside, "You are thinking too much, I just woke up too."
"I didn't say it was you who peeked at me. I just talked about the feeling in my dream. Hey, why is your face red? Could it be..." Chu Han deliberately prolonged his voice and looked at Xie
There was a hint of jealousy in Yao's eyes.
Although he has encountered assassinations one after another recently, having Xie Yao by his side makes him feel very good.
"You laughed out loud just now, maybe it was because you took a peek at me."
Xie Yao's head was covered with black lines and she was about to give Chu Han a roll of her eyes when she suddenly caught sight of the situation in front of her and her eyes darkened slightly.
When Chu Han saw this, he narrowed his black eyes for a moment and noticed that the carriage slowly stopped.
"Your Majesty, Princess, the bridge in front is broken, I'm afraid we have to take a detour." Wu Feng raised his voice outside.
Chu Han and Xie Yao got off the carriage, walked to the river and took a look, their eyes were deep.
The river is very wide, more than ten feet long, and the current is so fast that it is difficult to cross even by boating. Finding another bridge to cross is the best option.
At this time, Xie Wenwu also came over and was a little surprised when he saw the broken bridge, "Why is the bridge broken?"
"During the last expedition, my father found that the bridge was not very strong, so he stopped to repair the bridge before moving on. I remember that at that time, he also purchased a lot of wood from nearby to repair the bridge. Logically speaking, this
This bridge will not break down even if it lasts another three to five years."
Because the bridge was cut in the middle and the section has sunk into the water, it is impossible to determine whether it was man-made damage or natural damage.
Xie Yao looked at the breakpoint in the distance, then glanced at the position beside the bridge, her eyes suddenly narrowed, and she was about to walk over.
Xie Wenwu pulled the bridge and said, "Sister, don't go over there and pay attention to safety. Since the bridge is broken, we will take a detour. Repairing this bridge will take a lot of time and materials."
Xie Yao turned back, his eyes were deep, pointing to an inconspicuous small pit on the ground, and said: "If I guessed correctly, this bridge was vandalized. Someone wanted to stop us here, or force us to go around it.
road."
Xie Wenwu glanced at the pit with confusion on his face.
When Chu Han saw the dents, his eyes narrowed, and he raised his eyes and glanced forward. There were several dents in front of him, and some of them were even connected together.
"You mean, someone deliberately used heavy objects to collapse the bridge?" He said solemnly.
Xie Yao nodded, "That's right. Someone wanted to stop us, but they didn't want us to find out that the bridge was broken artificially, so they brought heavy objects to collapse the bridge. But they didn't expect that heavy objects could collapse the bridge.
It can also leave traces on the bridge head.”
Someone wants to assassinate again!
The three of them looked at each other and all saw the answer.
At this moment, a group of men in black suddenly rushed over from a distance, numbering hundreds of them!
Under the bright sunshine, this group of men in black looked a little forbidding and cold.
As soon as this group of men in black appeared, they directly forced Xie Yao and others to the river, cutting off all escape routes.
More importantly, nearly 30% of this group of men in black did not hold swords in their hands, but held powerful crossbows! The tips of the crossbow arrows had a touch of green, which had obviously been quenched with poison!
The power of this group of men in black is three points stronger than the combined power of the previous waves of assassinations!
"Do it!" A shout came from the crowd in black, and all the men in black moved and rushed towards Xie Yao and others!
Chu Han and Xie Yao looked at each other and nodded slightly.
"Xie Wenwu, you are responsible for protecting Xie Yao, and leave other matters to me." Chu Han said, jumped up, and rushed towards the man in black.
Just as Xie Wenwu was about to step forward, he paused when he heard this and glanced angrily at Chu Han's back.
You run fast! Next time, you will protect Xie Yao!
"Brother, you should protect me. The other party has a powerful crossbow and the poison is tempered. It is no better than the previous assassinations." Xie Yao said.
In the previous assassinations, Chu Han and Xie Wenwu fought to kill the enemy, but neither of them were willing to protect her.
However, it doesn't matter if there is no one to protect him. The previous assassinations were not strong enough, and Chu Han's guards did not need to be dispatched to end the battle.
But, this time is different.
"Don't worry," Xie Wenwu returned to Xie Yao's side immediately, "Although it is a powerful crossbow, with me here, they can't hurt you at this distance."
While the two of them were talking, the battle ahead had already begun!
People on both sides fought together, and the sound of swords clashing was endless.
Gradually, due to the suppression of the strong crossbows, Chu Han's guards were gradually suppressed by the men in black and were forced to retreat towards the river.
At this moment, more than thirty men in black appeared in the distance, and they all rushed in this direction!
There are no crossbows in their hands, all they have are long swords!
Xie Wenwu saw the new men in black appearing from a distance, his eyes were cold and solemn.
In the current situation, there is still room for counterattack. Once the new man in black appears and joins the battle group, I am afraid...
