Chapter 1076

Chapter 1076

A group of people rushed out of Changqing City in a cloud of dust.

Although Ye Zheng and his companions had already left the city, they did not dare to go far and just waited at the city gate. Fortunately, in just a moment, they saw a horseman flying out of the city gate.

Looking closely, it was Si Nanyan riding a horse and galloping out with Zhu Feng.

Everyone was surprised and happy, but it was too late to say anything, let alone express their joy of being out of trouble. They immediately spurred their horses and followed.

Suddenly, smoke and dust rose up.

At this time, they waved their whips with all their might and urged their horses forward. Although they had already left the gate of Changqing City, they could still hear the sound of horse hooves behind them. Obviously, Zhu Xuan was unwilling to accept defeat and still sent troops to follow.

More importantly—

They heard the trumpet sound again.

It was almost the same as the horn sound they heard from the west gate just now, but the difference was that this time the horn sounded behind them.

Obviously, Zhu Xuan wanted to gather the soldiers in the city and the guards of Prince Ning's Mansion again, and let them all follow up, and he was determined to wipe out this group of people!

He refuses to give up!

Zhu Feng didn't look back, but simply gripped the reins tightly, then shouted in a deep voice: "Everyone be careful!"

After hearing his words, everyone suddenly reacted.

Sure enough, the next moment, he heard someone shouting loudly behind him, followed by bursts of sharp sounds breaking through the air. It was Zhu Xuan who immediately mobilized the archers guarding the city to stop them with arrows.

Zhu Feng rode on the horse, lowering his body.

Naturally, he also held the person sitting in his arms tightly. Countless arrows flew past their sides, and many people around him screamed in agony, but everyone gritted their teeth and endured, continuing to gallop on their horses.

The sound of the wind whistled past my ears.

Nan Yan gritted her teeth, listening not only to the sound of the wind, but also to the heartbeat of the person behind her.

He lowered his body, his chest pressed against his back. He could feel his breathing and heartbeat were very intense, and sweat even seeped into his body.

In fact, she also broke out in a cold sweat.

At that moment, she still couldn't believe what she had experienced.

She rode out from the side, blocked Zhu Xuan and the others' pursuit, and pulled Zhu Feng onto the horse - of course, she didn't pull him up. At that time, even at such a critical moment, Zhu Feng didn't ignore her thin body. She had been very weak before, and riding the horse out had already used up all her strength.

If Zhu Feng really wanted to grab her hand to get on the horse, he would probably drag her off the horse.

So, he was galloping, riding on the horse with his own strength.

But even so, she was exhausted at this time and had no strength at all. Fortunately, Zhu Feng got on the horse and immediately took the reins from her. But now, she didn't even have the strength to sit still.

It all depends on the hand at the waist.

Zhu Feng's hands went straight around her waist, holding her tightly, as if he wanted to embed her completely into his arms. However, because he held her too tightly, she felt a little breathless.

“Ahem…”

She coughed twice and immediately felt a salty taste in her mouth.

There's blood oozing from my throat.

Although the external injury on her neck had healed, her voice had not recovered due to the constant running around these days and her previous "conflict" with Zhu Feng, which made her refuse to see a doctor. Just now, because she called him in a hurry, it seemed that the injury had worsened.

Hearing her cough, Zhu Feng frowned: "You——"

His hand trembled slightly and loosened a little.

Nan Yan bit her lower lip and said softly in a low voice: "It's okay..."

But after saying these two words, he started coughing violently again.

At this time, they had already run out of the range of the arrows, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. However, hearing the cough of the person in his arms and feeling her pain, Zhu Feng still felt as if his chest was hit by an arrow.

He held her tightly in his arms.

"It's fine."

As he spoke, the sound of horse hooves slowly gathered around him.

Turning around, he saw Li Bu Shang, Wen Ye and the others, as well as Ye Zheng, who was riding a horse with Ran Xiaoyu in his arms. They came over with a look of surprise on their faces: "Your Majesty!"

Zhu Feng looked at him: "Are all your people here?"

"Yes."

“…”

Zhu Feng glanced around.

This amount of manpower is not enough.

He mobilized most of his troops to attack the west gate in order to lure the tiger away from the mountain. On the way, he heard the news that Ye Zheng had caused a big disturbance in Prince Ning's Mansion. He knew that he had entered the city, but he also guessed that there were not many troops around him.

But at this moment, they felt the ground shaking.

A large number of troops chased out from Changqing City behind them.

The sky was filled with smoke and dust, almost blocking out the entire sky.

It might not be that easy to run at this time.

At this moment, Ye Zheng shouted, "Your Majesty, let's not go to the official road. Let's go forward!"

As he spoke, he pointed forward.

When everyone saw this road, their hearts skipped a beat.

Zhu Feng and Si Nanyan raised their heads at the same time, looked at the road, and frowned - they had come from a fishing village by the sea, and there was a river ahead on this road.

Zhu Feng asked: "Where?"

Ye Zheng said, "Before entering the city, I left some people there and asked them to prepare boats. As long as we can walk over and get on the boats, we can get rid of the cavalry behind us!"

When everyone heard this, they were moved.

In the territory of Yan State, most rivers flow from west to east, but the direction of the river in front is special, it flows from east to west.

They went out from the east gate, and if they reached the river and could get on a boat, they would head east.

To the east——

Zhu Feng's eyes flickered, as if he understood something. He turned to look at Ye Zheng, and Ye Zheng hurriedly nodded at him, indicating that it was so.

Zhu Feng's breath sank, and he immediately shouted, "Follow me!"

After saying this, he shook the reins in his hand and immediately spurred his horse onto the path.

The people behind him also rushed up, and not far behind them were the troops of Ning Wang Zhu Xuan. At this moment, they were constantly rushing out of Changqing City and started a fierce chase on this land.

The wind, carrying the broken snow, felt like a knife cutting people's cheeks when it blew across them.

Although there were no arrows flying behind him, Zhu Feng still tried his best to lower his body and protect the petite body in his arms.

Neither of them said another word, but the warmth from his chest penetrated through his clothes and seeped into his body bit by bit.

Nan Yan subconsciously reached out and covered the hand that was around her waist.

At this time, a river appeared in front.
