"That's why I stopped them and saved Xiao Die. Xiao Hao was rescued by another group of men in black. Those men were more skilled than me, and that's when I was injured. They also killed the assassins. Later, I was worried about the princess, so I rushed back. Please punish me, princess, for my failure to protect her!"

Xueying's words confirmed that Xiaohao was being protected. After saying that, she suddenly knelt on the ground and said with self-reproach.

It was his job to protect the princess, but he didn't stay by her side. By the time he returned, everything was already done for the princess.

If the general found out, he'd probably have to go back to school for a second chance.

"I'm fine. It's the assassin who's in trouble. I'm glad Xiao Hao is alright. But I should thank you for saving Xiao Die. Get up!"

Lin Yuxin waved her hand. She wasn't a porcelain doll; she had plenty of ways to save her life! If all else failed, she could hide in her spatial dimension to survive. Xiao Die, on the other hand, was truly a weak woman of this era!

Lin Yuxin thought for a moment and said to Li Xiaochen:

“That person just came to arrest me, and he knew who I was.”

"I just encountered a few groups of people, but they were all deadly in their attacks. It seems they are not a group, but rather share the same goal!"

Li Xiaochen said in a deep voice.

At this moment, Wang Yu returned carrying Xiao Hao, but he didn't see the group of guards protecting Xiao Hao. Wang Yu shook his head at Li Xiaochen and said:

"Your Highness, we didn't catch them. They were rescued. Xiao Hao wasn't hurt either, but he was probably a little frightened and is asleep now."

"Alright, give him to me! As for that guy, he's gone, so be it. He'll be a cripple when he gets back anyway. But what do we do next? Should we go back to Beijing first, or continue our stroll?"

Seeing that Xiao Hao was asleep, Lin Yuxin reached out and took him in her arms to make him more comfortable before speaking.

Whether that person can even get back alive is a question, but Lin Yuxin still turned to ask Li Xiaochen what to do next.

“We’re not in a hurry to go back to the capital right now, and since we’ve finally come out, let’s enjoy ourselves. I’ll have the guards around us protect us within a hundred meters, so this won’t happen again. Let’s keep them at bay and figure out their purpose first.”

Li Xiaochen reached out and patted Lin Yuxin's head, saying with heartache.

He was negligent today. He wanted to test those people's intentions, so he sent his guards a little further away, giving them an opportunity.

But he didn't expect those people to be so bold, with several groups attacking at once, which caught him completely off guard.

Moreover, their purpose is unclear. Besides killing him, it seems they want to capture Lin Yuxin alive, so they probably have some other purpose.

Moreover, Li Xiaochen felt his heart pound with fear whenever he recalled the scene of him pushing open the door and entering. His Xin Xin had almost been in danger.

Thankfully, Xin Xin is alright. If something had really happened to her, he would have made them pay the price.

A glint flashed in Li Xiaochen's eyes, and a fierce aura emanated from him.

Lin Yuxin noticed this too, and freed one hand to hold Li Xiaochen's hand, gently comforting him:

"I'm fine!"

"Thank goodness you're alright!"

Li Xiaochen came to his senses, looked at Lin Yuxin's delicate face, and said with lingering fear.

Afterwards, Li Xiaochen indeed dispatched many secret guards to protect them nearby. Even Lin Yuxin, whose martial arts skills were not high, could find where they were hiding. How well-protected could you imagine? But that's a story for another time!

Lin Yuxin slept in the same bed that night, and Xiao Hao also slept there. Lin Yuxin was afraid that he would be scared when he woke up at night, since it was the first time he had encountered something like this, and anyone would be traumatized.

Li Xiaochen and Xiao Hao slept on the floor. Lin Yuxin showed no guilt whatsoever about being the son of a prince and emperor. She fell asleep on the bed shortly after lying down.

Li Xiaochen was left sitting on the ground, looking at the person on the bed with a resentful expression. He was worried that the girl would be scared after being attacked today, and he was still thinking of a reason to go up and keep her company. But she actually fell asleep.

Is he left alone to raise the child?

Li Xiaochen sat there resentfully for a while, but couldn't resist. He quietly got up, covered Xiao Hao with a blanket, and after making sure he wouldn't kick it off, he sneaked onto Lin Yuxin's bed, lifted the blanket, and crawled in.

Then he gently pulled Lin Yuxin into his arms, did nothing, just held her like that, feeling very content, finally able to sleep with his wife in his arms!

Li Xiaochen slowly closed his eyes, and the person in his arms didn't feel anything was wrong. She only felt that it was very warm in front of her, and she hugged him even tighter.

The next morning, Lin Yuxin woke up first and lay in bed to stretch, but her foot felt like it had kicked something, which made her stiffen and feel warm.

She cautiously turned her head and saw Li Xiaochen's large face right in front of her.

"ah!!"

Startled, Lin Yuxin scrambled to her feet and kicked Li Xiaochen in the waist.

"Bang!"

Li Xiaochen was kicked off the bed and fell to the ground.

"Lin Yuxin, you've murdered your husband! Be careful you won't be able to have sex with him again...!"

Li Xiaochen rubbed his lower back where he had been kicked, looked at Lin Yuxin with a resentful expression, and complained.

Then he saw a pair of eyes on the ground, blinking and staring at the two of them. Li Xiaochen swallowed the words he was about to say.

"What husband? What belief? Don't talk nonsense. But you, tell me how you got into my bed?"

Lin Yuxin also saw Xiao Hao on the ground, and quickly grabbed the quilt to protect herself, then questioned him with her neck stiff.

There are children here, why is this man talking such lewd things so early in the morning?

"You're wronging me. I don't know who it was, but last night they kept kicking off the covers while sleeping. I kindly covered them up for you, and they grabbed me and wouldn't let me leave, even hugging me and refusing to let go?"
