I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart.

Their target is undoubtedly Yan Jiaoran. There is only one reason why they are not pursuing her at this time -

Someone was waiting for her up ahead.

Just as I thought of this, the carriage suddenly slowed down and stopped.

Qin Yuan hurriedly reined in his horse and staggered to a stop.

In the darkness, I could barely see that the road ahead was blocked by barricades, and it was obviously impossible to ride a horse through.

Qin Yuan jumped off his horse and gripped the hilt of his sword tightly.

These people even put up barricades to block the road, and they definitely had a lot of bows and crossbows hidden. A single volley of fire could turn Yan Jiaoran into a hedgehog.

But, why haven't you done anything yet?

While he was thinking, he heard Murong Yanran's voice coming from the carriage.

"Commander Wu, what happened?"

Commander Wu bowed and said, "Your Excellency, there is a change in plan. The road ahead has been blocked."

Hearing this.

Murong Yanran and Yan Jiaoran got out of the car calmly.

Murong Yanran frowned and asked in a serious tone, "Has the signal been sent? Why hasn't Lord Jia arrived yet?"

Commander Wu's face turned pale. "I don't know, maybe someone tripped him up."

"Your Majesty, rest assured. As long as Changbo is still breathing, no one will harm you!"

Wu Changbo?

That's not a good name!

In Qin Yuan's memory, this person's name is well-known.

This Mr. Wu is a great leader and he was able to lead the way all the way from Shanhaiguan to Yunnan.

Although, according to the time, the Wu in Qin Yuan's memory had not yet been born.

But, who knows, is there something wrong with this person...

It's possible that he deliberately led everyone to their death!

Murong Yanran continued, "Commander Wu, how long do you think it will take for Lord Jia to arrive?"

Wu Changbo said in a muffled voice, "One stick of incense at most. Lord Jia is very clever and will definitely not break his promise. Your Majesty, please rest here for a while."

Lord Jia?

Jia Shixian, the commander of the Imperial City Division?

This is not a good name, can you believe it?

For such a dangerous matter, you only find a few people?

What a stupid woman, she killed people.

If Qin Yuan were to come, he would have to arrange for eight or ten reinforcements, otherwise how could he be at ease?

For some reason, he always had a bad feeling.

Murong Yanran turned around and suddenly caught a glimpse of Qin Yuan. She didn't sense any danger and even had the leisure to joke, "Hey!"

"Of course, Qin Yuan, the guards from the Imperial City Division have all disappeared, and you're still able to keep up."

"That's pretty good, it seems you weren't bragging last time."

Qin Yuan also dismounted, chuckling dryly: "I know a little bit, a little bit, it's always good to have many skills."

While talking.

Several black clouds appeared out of thin air.

Five people flew across the air and suddenly appeared in front of everyone, kneeling on the ground with their hands clasped.

They were all dressed in uniform, all wrapped in black gauze. There were both men and women. The woman who had previously killed Xie Ping in court was also among them and seemed to be the leader.

I think these are the legendary Plum Blossom Guards.

With such skills, it's no wonder these two women are so fearless.

The woman bowed and said, "Your Majesty, all the crossbowmen in the area have been eliminated, and the crossbow mechanisms have been destroyed."

"Yeah." Yan Jiaoran nodded.

But for some reason, Qin Yuan still felt a chill down his spine.

The fish is hooked.

But who is the fish that has taken the bait?
