Chapter 584: Brutal Ambush



Jun Baozhu slept particularly soundly this time.

Perhaps, it is because the situation in the Lion Country has been stabilized and there is no danger anymore, or perhaps it is because the Crown Prince is by his side.

But when she looked out the window and saw the sun already setting at noon, Jun Baozhu couldn't help but be surprised and cried out in her heart.

[Hmm? Why are we still in the palace? ]

[Didn't you say that you would set off this morning? Return to Taifeng?]

【Why are we still here? 】

When the system heard what happened, it revealed everything to Jun Baozhu, who was extremely surprised.

[Has the team set out yet? ]

【According to the original plan? 】

[However, there were only 100 people instead of 500 accompanying them? ]

[In the carriage, there are two people, one big and one small, dressed as the prince and me? ]

[What do you mean? Are these two stand-ins helping us to detect danger? ]

[Could it be that the Crown Prince is also worried about the Dragon and Tiger Kingdom and the Great Witch Doctor? ]

[What about now? Where is the team? Is there any danger? ]

The system paused for a moment, and suddenly an alarm sounded:

[Danger! The team was attacked by a masked man! ]

Jun Baozhu suddenly screamed in the prince's arms:

[What? The team was attacked? Masked men?]

[What's going on now? Casualties?]

【What? ! 】

Jun Baozhu only shouted out these two words, his chest heaving violently, and he was unable to speak for a long time.

The prince became formal and serious, and then listened to Jun Baozhu's inner voice.

[Except for the main carriage, which was occupied by the Crown Prince and my double, are all the others dead? ]

[How could this be?! Aren't there still more than a hundred guards? Are they not that weak?]

[What? There were more than a thousand people dispatched, surrounding the team from all sides, jumping out to hammer the team, no one could resist, and almost had their necks twisted in one blow? ]

[What? The carriage is no exception? ]

[After dealing with the guards, he opened the carriage and found the stand-ins screaming. He asked the stand-ins about their identities and broke their necks on the spot?! ]

[The stand-in is like me, just a one-month-old baby? He didn't let it go either? ]

[God damn it! So cruel! ]

Jun Baozhu thought about it and felt scared again.

[If it weren't for the prince's thoughtful consideration, the ones who would be suffering now would be the prince and I! ]

[It seems that the opponent is very powerful. The accompanying guards had no ability to resist and were killed in one blow...]

[The number of opponents is obviously more than the team...]

[How can I resist? ]

[So, their target from the beginning was the Crown Prince and me? ]

[What are the origins of these people? ]

Although she asked this question, Jun Baozhu had a vague answer in her heart.

Sure enough, I wasn’t surprised at all when I heard the system’s analysis and speculation.

[Among the four countries, this one has such a natural advantage and is the most suspicious. It is adjacent to the Lion Country and is easy to launch a sneak attack...]

【Dragon and Tiger Kingdom?】

Jun Baozhu's eyes became cold, as if these people had been present since she came here.

If it weren't for the Great Witch Doctor and the Xiangshan Kingdom, the threat would be even greater and my father would never let them off!

Unfortunately, before Dafeng could make any move, they came to her door first!

Understanding Jun Baozhu's thoughts, the system explained in the sea of consciousness:

[Perhaps, it is because they feel guilty and are aware of the good things they have done. They know that although Dafeng has not taken action against them at this time, it is only a matter of time...]

【I chose this moment to take action.】

[Only by controlling the crown prince and princess that Dafeng Dynasty values the most can we negotiate more confidently...]

[For example, won't we settle accounts with them later? ]

Jun Baozhu's pupils dilated.

[What are you thinking? Grab the other person's neck and prevent him from fighting back? ]

[Not to mention that before, they sent men in black to infiltrate the Dafeng Palace several times, and even participated in the assassination of the second prince's brother. They also colluded with Prince Cheng and kidnapped me...]

[What kind of brain do you have? You think that even if you kidnapped me and my brother, the Crown Prince, you think that the Emperor will not avenge you later?]

[He is not just playing with fire, he is seeking death! ]

[Now, what's the situation? Our guards and substitutes? ]

[The masked man was furious and noticed many guards. A few moments before he struggled to death, he left clues on his body to make it easier for his companions to find out the truth about the murderer? ]

[The masked man was furious and immediately demanded that all the bodies be burned to ashes? ]

[Are they crazy?! This is Lion Country! ]

[Aren't they worried about being discovered by the people of Lion Country?! ]

[What? They killed and burned all the shepherds who were passing by with their sheep and the curious Lion Countrymen who hadn’t seen their figures clearly yet?]

【It’s really crazy!】

[During the burning, we encountered more than a hundred Lion Countrymen who were killed? Even as many as our guards who died?]

[These people! They really treat their lives as if they were human beings! ]

[Where are they now? They buried the burned bodies on the spot and retreated to hide far away?]

[Do they think we are stupid or blind? ]

[More than 200 people were burned. Wouldn't we check it out when we passed by? Or are they so confident? Do they think we have to pass by this place whenever we go back?]

[They are just sitting there waiting for us to find out, not caring if we find out? ]

[So rampant! ]

The prince picked up Jun Baozhu and ran straight to the palace where Zhui Gu was holding meetings.

Upon seeing the prince, the new chief eunuch quickly passed on the message and when the prince walked to the door, he was led directly in.

The prince directly stated his purpose. Zhui Gu looked at Jun Baozhu with a serious face and pounded the table with his fist.

[What's wrong? Zhui Gu also knows about the prince's plan? ]

Jun Baozhu asked the system.
