Shangguan Wanning's uneasiness continued to spread.
She found that all the guards lying on the ground were still breathing, which meant that they were only temporarily unconscious.
The only explanation for so many people falling down at the same time is that they were drugged.
There is a traitor among them.
"What do you want?" Shangguan Wanning calmed down and looked around fearlessly.
"Does the princess know why we didn't kill everyone?"
"I really want to know."
"My master knows that you are kind-hearted, so he doesn't want to make you sad. As long as you follow us obediently, not only will the guards here be fine, but even the Crown Princess, Mu Jingyan, and the Princess will be safe."
Shangguan Wanning's heart skipped a beat.
These people were clearly threatening her.
She vaguely guessed who the "master" these people were talking about was.
But……
"You are taking me back to the capital now. Aren't you afraid of running into Mu Jingrui's team on the way?" Shangguan Wanning sneered, "He is not that easy to mess with."
"Hahaha. The princess is really smart. She already knows who my master is. Don't bother the princess to worry about it. Whether you are willing or forced today, you have to come with us."
Shangguan Wanning took a deep breath secretly.
"Okay, I'll go with you. But you must keep your word and not hurt anyone else."
"please."
The leading man made a respectful gesture.
"Ning'er."
The eldest princess chased out and grabbed Shangguan Wanning's wrist.
"Aunt, what are you doing out here? Go back quickly."
"Silly girl, how can I watch you go with them? What if something happens to you? How can I explain to your parents and your uncle?"
The princess protected Shangguan Wan Ning behind her and scolded, "How dare you be so bold in front of me."
The big men looked at each other, seemed to have lost their patience, and after exchanging glances, they rushed towards Shangguan Wanning.
With two "bangs", the two big men in the front fell to the ground. Everyone looked closely and saw Mu Jingyan standing in front of them with a long sword in his hand.
"Aunt, Wan Ning, you go first."
After Mu Jingyan finished speaking, he walked towards those big men.
Shangguan Wanning was a little worried.
Although Mu Jingyan's martial arts skills were not weak, they were not yet at the top level. In this situation, being able to protect himself was already good enough, but he also had to protect her and the princess, which was simply...
Before she could even think about playing, she saw Mu Jingyan's arm was scratched and blood was flowing.
Shangguan Wanning couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
If anything happens to Mu Jingyan, Mu Jingrui will definitely be very sad.
"Xiaoyan, don't worry about us, just go first. Go back to find your brother..."
Before Shangguan Wanning could finish her words, pieces of leaves flew over from not far away and knocked the steel knives in the hands of several big men to the ground.
"Brother Huo?"
Shangguan Wanning was surprised and happy. At this moment, a figure flashed from the other side and stood side by side with Huo Gang.
It’s Chu Xiaolian.
With the addition of these two people, the group of men in black gradually felt overwhelmed.
"stop."
With a loud shout, everyone stopped fighting immediately.
A man in black came out of the military tent holding You Zhenzhen.
She was very scared, her whole body was trembling, and her bloodshot eyes were sparkling with crystal tears.
She bit her lips tightly, trying hard not to cry.
"If any of you dare to move again, I will kill her."
Mu Jingyan was about to step forward when Chu Xiaolian pushed him away without any expression.
"If you want to kill her, just kill her. We don't know her very well. In this chaotic time, it's normal for someone to die. Even if Xiao Yujue finds out in the future, he won't do anything to us. Anyway, he doesn't lack women."
Chu Xiaolian’s words made You Zhenzhen’s face even paler.
Mu Jingyan was very dissatisfied. He pushed Chu Xiaolian who was standing in front of him away and scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about? She is your husband's wife, how can you let her get into trouble?"
Shangguan Wanning couldn't help but close her eyes.
When their Mu family was reproducing, they really gave all their IQ to Mu Jingrui alone.
"Princess, I still say that, we only want you. One for another."
"You wish." Huo Gang spat, "Princess, Miss, let's go. We won't get involved in the affairs of the Xiao family."
As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled the eldest princess and Shangguan Wanning away.
Chu Xiaolian just glanced at Mu Jingyan indifferently, as if mocking her stupidity.
This made Mu Jingyan anxious and angry.
Suddenly, a melodious and deep horn sound came from the sky.
Before everyone could react, countless sharp arrows shot towards them.
Huo Gang and others were shocked, and cooperated with Chu Xiaolian tacitly to protect Shangguan Wanning and the eldest princess behind them.
The man in black also pushed You Zhenzhen away and waved his sword to fight back against the long sword.
Seeing this, Mu Jingyan risked his life to come to You Zhenzhen's side and pulled her to a safe area.
The sharp arrows stopped, and dozens of killers swarmed in.
Under such circumstances, Huo Gang, Chu Xiaolian and Mu Jingyan alone were no longer able to protect everyone's safety.
Shangguan Wanning was about to stop the fight when she suddenly heard Huo Gang scream.
She turned around hurriedly and saw that the dagger in You Zhenzhen's hand had just been pulled out from Huo Gang's back.
"So you are the traitor."
"You just realized it now? Don't you think it's too late?"
You Zhenzhen's hand holding the dagger was trembling slightly, but there was a gleam of determination in her eyes.
Huo Gang condensed his true energy in his palm and struck out at You Zhenzhen.
A palm wind came from the other side, saving You Zhenzhen while confronting Huo Gang with a palm.
Huo Gang took a few steps back and pressed the acupoints on his body to prevent the rapid loss of blood.
"Zhenzhen, how are you?"
A young man held You Zhenzhen in his arms, showing concern and love.
You Zhenzhen threw away the dagger and hid in the man's arms, trembling. "I'm so scared..."
"It's going to be okay. It's all over."
The man looked at Huo Gang with sharp eyes. At this time, they were surrounded by killers.
"Humph, none of you can leave today."
The man shouted loudly and slapped Shangguan Wanning with his palm.
Shangguan Wan Ning groaned, fell to the ground and fainted.
The eldest princess was horrified and was about to step forward to support him, but she felt a pain in her neck and lost consciousness.
"Sister, you..." No matter how stupid Mu Jingyan was, he could see You Zhenzhen's betrayal.
She looked at You Zhenzhen in disbelief until someone slapped her from behind and she fell to the ground in a daze.
"Zijun, can we go now?"
Zhao Zijun hugged You Zhenzhen, held her face in his hands, and said, "Not yet, there is one more thing to do."
