"Princess, I did not..."
Xia Yu jumped off his horse. He wanted to explain to Shen Yuyao that he had not actually been to that place of fireworks. He had just created a false illusion to fool the Black Dragon Guards sent to Yanjing by his father.
Alas, having a father who always suspects that his son is going to rebel, Xia Yu actually feels very bitter in his heart!
But seeing that Shen Yuyao was too lazy to pay attention to him, Xia Yu could only call out to Danggui: "Danggui, protect the little princess!"
"yes!"
After Danggui responded, he immediately jumped off his horse, holding a long sword in his hand, and he and Tang Wei protected Xia Xiaoxian on the carriage, one in front and one behind.
When Zi Su saw Shen Yuyao draw out her sword, she was so scared that she quickly lowered the curtain and hugged Xia Xiaoxian tightly in her arms.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!" Xia Xiaoxian patted her back with her chubby hands and comforted Zisu, "Xiaoxian will protect you."
You are a baby over one year old!
Zi Su smiled, but was deeply moved.
Seeing that Xia Yu had jumped off the horse, Shen Yuyao ran quickly to Xia Yu's horse and slapped the warhorse hard on the butt.
The horse felt pain, neighed loudly, and rushed straight into the dense forest ahead.
Behind the big tree, the man in black put his thumb and index finger into his mouth, and a cool whistle sounded. Many archers in the forest quickly climbed to the treetops, and for a moment, a large number of birds flapped their wings in surprise.
“Flutter…”
“Whoosh…”
Seeing that the archers had already reached the top of the tree, the man in black gritted his teeth and waved his hand fiercely: "Release!"
Shen Yuyao suddenly looked up and saw that from the top of the woods not far away, a barrage of arrows were falling towards the frightened horse.
“Puff…Puff…”
"puff......"
The sound of iron arrows piercing into flesh and bones is painful to hear!
When those densely packed feathered arrows pierced the warhorse, it knelt on its front hooves and fell to the ground. The huge and miserable neighing made Shen Yuyao's heart tremble.
In just a moment, the horse was shot into a hedgehog by dense feather arrows, and there was no trace of life left.
Shen Yuyao never expected that there would be so many thieves.
She was horrified and took a few steps back, but she saw Xia Yu standing there motionless.
Shen Yuyao was shocked and angry!
Isn’t this prince brave and good at fighting?
Why were you so frightened that you stood there in shock?
This shows how unreliable the rumors are.
She frowned and quickly approached Xia Yu. She grabbed Xia Yu's wrist with her left hand and retreated to the carriage.
As she retreated, Shen Yuyao looked up again.
In the depths of the dense forest, dozens of gray figures slid down from the treetops and quickly came towards the carriage.
Tang Wei and Danggui wanted to protect the little princess, but the prince was frightened and stunned.
Shen Yuyao alone cannot withstand so many people.
Shen Yuyao saw that the dozens of men in gray were moving very fast and they should reach the carriage in a moment.
Shen Yuyao's face was stern. She quickly approached the carriage, then somersaulted onto the shaft and shouted at Danggui, "Throw the prince up here!"
"yes!"
Danggui and Tang Wei responded in unison, and each took one side, throwing the still-standing Xia Yu onto the carriage.
Prince? Is this the prince?
Tang Wei looked at Shen Yuyao with confusion in his eyes. Shen Yuyao had no time to explain to Tang Wei. She lifted the curtain without looking back and pushed Xia Yu into the carriage.
Xia Yu staggered and fell onto the soft chair.
"you...."
"What do you mean?" Shen Yuyao scoffed, "Sit tight!"
Shen Yuyao had never seen Xia Yu in such a miserable state. She really wanted to slap the love-brained Shen Yuyao.
Yes, it’s what Xu Yunxuan calls a love brain!
She actually separated from her own parents for such a coward!
If the emperor had not granted the marriage and did not allow divorce, Shen Yuyao would really want to divorce this cowardly prince now!
You have to eat the bitter fruit you sow yourself!
The anger in Shen Yuyao's eyes subsided a little. She turned to Zi Su and said, "Zi Su, hold the little princess and sit tight."
"Danggui, get on your horse and lead some people away first."
"yes!"
"Tang Wei drives the car, rush over!"
"yes!"
Just as Danggui was about to jump onto his warhorse, he heard Xia Yu shout, "Don't move!"
Xia Yu's eyes were filled with coldness. "Let them come closer."
When Shen Yuyao heard this, she was so angry that she almost kicked Xia Yu down.
She had never seen such a cowardly prince. He was almost surrounded to death, but Xia Yu actually told them not to move!
We have to wait for those thieves to get closer.
Does Xia Yu want them to surrender and leave their bodies intact?
He didn't even look at the dense array of arrows. Were those thieves who wanted to spare their lives?
Shen Yuyao was convinced!
Shen Yuyao said angrily: "You!"
Xia Yu said calmly: "What do you mean by you?"
Retribution in this life, and it has to be quick!
[Huh? Why is there a fight outside?]
[I just felt a little bit of excitement, and it's over... Not fun! ]
Is there a sound of fighting outside the carriage?
Shen Yuyao lifted the car curtain and looked at it with a puzzled look on her face.
Sure enough, there were many moon-white figures in the woods, fighting with those gray-clothed men. Judging from their skills, both sides were not just ordinary bandits.
The sounds of fighting gradually grew louder.
"You really spent a lot of money." Xia Yu snorted coldly, "Everyone sit down!"
"If you have reinforcements, you can tell me in advance."
Shen Yuyao's eyes dodged, still feeling a little resentful.
Could it be that he treated all of them as actors and put on a wonderful show for whom?
