Chapter 51 An An is obedient
Pei Yan saw that those black-clad assassins had all received professional training, and those sent by the barbarians were also top-notch masters, otherwise Mo Yuan would not have been injured. He watched as the number of imperial guards decreased.
Pei Yan didn't want Lu An to get hurt, but he couldn't give up the lives of those imperial guards. As long as he left, all of them would die here.
“No general on the battlefield would abandon his soldiers and flee alone.”
Li Ji had just sent out a signal that Mo Yuan would arrive soon, but he was still afraid... What if? He didn't dare to gamble.
Pei Yan called his Arabian horse Bai Hong and carried Lu An on it. Lu An saw Pei Yan's intention and struggled all over: "Your Majesty! What are you going to do? We will go together? Right?" he asked in a trembling voice.
Pei Yan looked into Lu An's eyes and comforted him softly: "An An, don't worry, their target is me. Mo Yuan will be here soon, you don't have to worry about me."
"The horse you know, Bai Hong, is the one I took you to ride just now. He knows the way and will bring you to the camp safely. After you arrive at the camp, I will go back immediately."
After hearing Pei Yan's words, Lu An turned around and was about to jump off his horse.
Pei Yan pressed him on the horse's back and tied his hands with a strong rope. Pei Yan did not tie them tightly and it would be easy to untie them with a little effort. However, Lu An was too excited and did not notice it.
Lu An was so anxious that tears came down, and he shouted loudly: "Let me go, Pei Yan, you are lying. If Mo Yuan could arrive in time, why did you send me away first?"
Lu An was crying and couldn't catch his breath while speaking, and he murmured softly: "You can't do this to me."
Pei Yan looked at Lu An and said, "An An, be obedient." He wiped the tears from Lu An's face and whispered to Bai Hong, "Go to the camp." Bai Hong ran out instantly.
Lu An lay on the horse's back and looked in Pei Yan's direction: "No, Pei Yan, let me get off."
Pei Yan looked at Bai Hong's receding figure, drew the dagger from his waist, joined the battlefield, and stepped forward to help.
The leading man in black saw the young eunuch running out and immediately ordered two people to intercept and kill him. The empress dowager had ordered that the young eunuch beside the emperor should be captured alive if possible.
Pei Yan saw two men in black trying to kill Lu An, so he stepped forward to stop them.
Pei Yan was dressed in black, with a gloomy look in his eyes. "Who sent you?"
The two men in black sarcastically said, "You can't even protect yourself, and you still care about a eunuch?"
Pei Yan said no more upon seeing this, and stabbed the man in black with his dagger. The man in black raised his hand to block, and "clang" the two swords collided almost at the same time, creating a burst of sparks.
The other one stabbed Pei Yan's neck from behind. In a flash, Pei Yan dodged sideways, but the tip of the sword still left a wound on his back.
Pei Yan made a claw with his left hand, turned around and grabbed the wrist of the man in black, then flipped his wrist and scratched the man's neck, and the spurting blood splashed all over Pei Yan's face.
Seeing this, the other one quickly retreated. Pei Yan waved his hand and swung out the dagger. The man in black couldn't dodge in time and was stabbed in the chest.
Li Ji rushed to Pei Yan at this time and killed the man in black with one sword. Pei Yan took a look at the number of people and found that there were less than five.
A tall barbarian saw this and laughed, "Hahaha, what a pity..."
Pei Yan sneered: "What a pity"
"It's a pity that the emperor has to go to the battlefield himself, but there is no one in the court?" The barbarian sneered, "Could it be that all those who helped you ascend the throne are dead? Otherwise, I would like to take a seat on the throne of Wei."
He raised his arms and shouted, "Don't you think so?"
Pei Yan raised his eyes slightly and said, "He is just a defeated general. He was the king of your barbarian tribe back then. He knelt down and asked for peace."
The barbarian heard this and shouted angrily, "Kill him."
As soon as he finished speaking, a feather arrow shot out and hit the barbarian who spoke so arrogantly. He didn't even see who killed him. Just fell to the ground.
Mo Yuan walked out from behind them and said viciously, "Oh my, I think it's that desperate guy who's talking nonsense. I'll cut off his tongue and use it as a snack."
Pei Yan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Mo Yuan coming: "Leave a few alive and kill the rest." After saying that, he jumped on his horse and chased Lu An. Although Bai Hong understood human nature, he was still afraid of accidents.
