Xiao Li had just walked out of Prince Yanping's mansion when the guard came to report: "Princess, Prince Yanping just returned from outside the city."

Xiao Li stroked the soft fur of Mojiang: "I understand."

Lou Yan took the reins from the guard and meticulously extended his hand towards Xiao Li, meaning to escort her onto the horse.

It was indeed inconvenient for Xiao Li to hold Mo Jiang, so he reached out and placed his hand on his arm, using his strength to get on the horse.

Lou Yan also got on the horse behind and came to Xiao Li's side: "Princess, are you going to leave the city?"

Xiao Li: "Probably."

This little wolf cub is quite capable. When Xiao Jingzhao came back from outside the city, he met Cen An, so it would be easy to find him.

Lou Yan's deep gaze fell on her, with an ambiguous glimmer in his eyes: "I still have to return to the palace to report, so I'm afraid I can't go with the princess. However, if the princess has an order, I will naturally obey it."

The implication is: Princess, please order me to go with you!

Xiao Li turned her head to look at him and chuckled, "It's dangerous outside the city. Master Zhangyin is a skilled martial artist. Why don't you accompany this princess?"

Lou Yan's narrow eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his lips raised in a clear arc: "I obey your command!"

Before Xiao Li reached the city gate, Song Junzhan's men came to report that they had found Cen An's whereabouts.

Xiao Li flicked the whip: "Go!"

Cen An didn't go far, and was just in a valley less than thirty miles outside the capital.

There is a ravine between two mountains, and a house is built in the middle. It is built against the mountain and is not big, but it looks very distinctive, with flying eaves and brackets, and is carefully designed and ingenious.

But the black pillars and green tiles look very dark and depressing.

When Xiao Li arrived, Song Junzhan's men had already started fighting with others.

Song Junzhan was not good at martial arts, so he stood under a tree farther away and watched. He was dressed in a crescent-white suit and his face was also pale. He had tried his best to find Cen An. His health was not good to begin with, and he became exhausted after this ordeal.

Fortunately, he is good-looking. His hair is tied with a blue ribbon and a tassel hangs from his ear, making him look a little like an immortal.

Seeing Xiao Li coming, he stepped forward and said, "Princess, Cen An is inside."

Xiao Li didn't even need to raise his hand, just turned his head slightly, and Rong Qing had already led his men to kill.

Zi Yue was wearing a suit of armor that had been specially modified for him, and he looked particularly energetic. Seeing Rong Qing taking action, he wanted to follow the others to charge, but was stopped by Song Junzhan.

"Young Master, why are you stopping me?"

Song Junzhan pushed him back: "It's not your turn to kill."

Song Junzhan's men were fighting with the black-clad guards in the yard, and the battle was evenly matched. However, when Rong Qing and his men joined in, the situation became one-sided.

A group of people rushed directly to the door of the house. After a few slashes and a kick, the door collapsed with a loud bang.

The front door of the house was soon occupied by people from the princess's mansion, and the number of black-clad guards became fewer and fewer.

Song Junzhan stood on the other side of Xiao Li, his expression somewhat serious: "Princess, please be careful. I always feel that this process is too smooth."

"When our people searched here, they happened to encounter those people passing by. I didn't plan to take action right away, but the other side suddenly came over with a group of people and started to attack without saying a word."

When kidnappers take hostages, who wouldn't hide themselves for fear of being found? But this was strange. Although they acted like kidnappers, they left room for maneuver everywhere, as if they were deliberately waiting for someone to find them.

Xiao Li looked up at the mountain, which was surrounded on three sides, with only the front open.

"Walk into the trap."

Xiao Li laughed and was about to step forward, but Song Junzhan raised his hand to stop her, his eyes filled with worry: "Princess, you should wait here."

It is related to King Ping of Yan. What kind of game is this? It goes without saying who they are inviting.

This is a trap set for Xiao Li.

Looking at the dark and menacing villa, Xiao Li sneered, "Playing tricks."

"Since someone has set up the stage, how can I not go and see it? Coincidentally, I also want to know who is so impatient..." I want to be reborn.

After saying that, she strode towards the door, and as soon as she stepped into the door, dozens of arrows shot towards her from above.

"Princess, be careful!"

The surrounding guards immediately returned to defense, using their bodies as shields to block all the arrows.

At this time, the power of equipment is reflected. The guards of the princess's mansion do not need shields. They are wearing armor, so even if they have shields, they may not be able to break them even if they are attacked face to face. The lethality of long-range arrows is even less enough.

The two guards who were close by were not holding swords, but iron umbrellas as thick as their arms. At the moment the arrow was shot, they quickly opened the two silver iron umbrellas and closed them to the left and right, covering their heads tightly. Together with the armored guards, they could not hurt Xiao Li at all.

Lou Yan raised his hands and saw Xiao Li standing there without blinking. There was no fear in her eyes, and she was even smiling.

It was like a beast that smelled blood and finally got the opportunity to kill.

Lou Yan raised his eyebrows, and the expression on his face was one of unconcealable fascination. This was the way she looked that attracted him the most.

Wave after wave of arrows rained down on the top of the umbrella, causing no damage except for making a harsh sound and producing some sparks.

Lou Yan bowed slightly and said, "Princess, please be careful. I will be back soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, the figure jumped onto the wall and flew up quickly.

Song Junzhan looked at the figure with a slightly deep look in his eyes. He had never been to the palace and did not recognize Lou Yan, but he knew the style of the clothes. He was the chief eunuch.

And this clothing, this age, this skill, and that gloomy and murderous temperament, it is hard not to remind people of the eunuch who was famous for his viciousness and evil spirit and was in charge of the emperor's seal.

Then he looked back at Xiao Li walking step by step inside the courtyard wall.

Her figure was slender and tall, with the graceful and elegant figure of a woman. Her back was straight, but her steps were leisurely, as if she was strolling in the garden, not taking the bloody storm seriously.

Everyone knew that Princess Xuanyang had spent a large sum of money to equip her guards with the finest armor, but no one could have a direct feeling without seeing it with their own eyes.

It is invulnerable to swords and spears, and cannot be harmed by arrows.

The protection is tight, and it does not affect the guards' attacks. Although this is because the guards are all physically strong, there is no shortage of strong men in the army.

Zi Yue said that the armor was designed by the princess herself, and no one knows the casting method and materials used.

In the face of such magical equipment, the high price and the need for strong soldiers to match it become secondary.

He was not wrong about her. Princess Xuanyang was the most dazzling and indestructible pearl in this dynasty.

As for the eunuchs around the emperor who obeyed her orders and fought for her, it is not difficult to understand.

After Princess Xuanyang's men arrived, Shopkeeper Jiang stepped back and stood guard beside Song Junzhan, watching the scene inside with him.

Shocked, he couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder everyone says Princess Xuanyang is arrogant and cruel. Who wouldn't tremble in fear after seeing this scene?"

Zi Yue was wearing the same armor and felt proud of it, but he was really depressed that he couldn't go forward to fight the enemy together.
