Guard Li was stumped by the question. The bandits were extremely vicious. If Prince Ming and his group revealed their identities, their fate... could be compared to the tragic death of the Third Prince.
But His Majesty's order is for him to be on standby, and he must obey His Majesty's orders.
So even if he wanted to save Prince Ming and the others, he was powerless.
Guard Li lowered his head, "I'm sorry, Sixth Princess."
Wanyue raised her eyebrows, turned her wrist and started fanning herself again.
"Xiu He, send Guard Li out."
There is nothing more to say.
Guard Li saluted with his fists, turned around silently and followed Xiuhe.
Wanyue fanned herself and found a nearby chair to sit down.
Leaning back in the chair, Wanyue looked up at the beams above her head in a daze.
The old man and the other three ran into the bandits' lair by themselves, and the emperor seemed unwilling to care about them.
Otherwise, such standby instructions would not be issued.
You have to know that those bandits have killed people before, and you may lose your life if you are not careful.
But why did the emperor have such an attitude? One of those three people was his own son.
As the saying goes, even a tiger won’t eat its own cubs.
This emperor is more cruel than a tiger.
Xiuhe came in from the door. Wanyue sat up straight, twisting the handle of the fan with her left hand. "You're back so soon?"
Xiu He walked over, looking a little strange. "Guard Li didn't let me see him off. On the way, I ran into someone from the palace looking for him. He looked anxious, so something must have happened."
This guard Li is very busy.
He's a dedicated and good guard.
Wanyue praised the dedicated Guard Li in a half-hearted manner, then immediately forgot about him.
"Xiu He, go to the warehouse and find my old clothes."
Xiuhe was confused. What was the old outfit? She didn't understand what the princess was talking about.
Wanyue pounded the table next to her with her fan, looking a little annoyed. "It's just... the clothes and jewelry I used to wear, that glittering golden outfit!"
Thinking back to when she first opened her eyes in this world, she was severely tortured by that outfit.
She originally thought that she would never experience that torture again, but now she has to bite the bullet and do it.
After Wanyue's explanation, Xiuhe quickly understood what Wanyue meant and turned to go to the warehouse to find her luggage.
After Xiuhe left, Wanyue angrily pounded the table a few more times.
………
On a small road outside Kyoto, a horse-drawn carriage was moving slowly. The roof and surrounding areas of the carriage were painted with gold foil. It looked like a glowing golden ball under the sun, forming a beautiful landscape.
As the carriage was moving, the curtain of the carriage window was opened from the inside, and a hand stretched out from the window. The most eye-catching thing was not the hand that was so white that it glowed in the sun, but the heavy gold bracelet on the owner's wrist.
In the bushes on either side of the path, a burly man with half a tiger skin wrapped around his body pointed at the carriage on the road ahead, his eyes gleaming with greed. "Brother, we've made a fortune this time! This gold-inlaid carriage is enough for us brothers to eat for a long time!"
The scarred man in front twitched his lips, his eyes filled with greed. "This sheep is really fat."
The big man waved the sword a few times, his flesh shaking with excitement. "Big brother, shall we do it?"
The scarred man didn't say anything, his eyes were always looking ahead. After waiting for a while, he saw the carriage on the path driving to a place only a few meters away from them. The scarred man raised his hand high and waved it forward. Dozens of big men around him immediately rushed forward and surrounded the carriage.
Feng Shiwu, who was driving the carriage, tightened the reins to steady it. Facing the big men around him, Feng Shiwu remembered Wanyue's instructions, and an expression similar to shock appeared on his face, which had originally been expressionless.
Feng Shiwu pulled the reins and spoke in a low voice, "Who are you? Why are you stopping our carriage?"
Wanyue in the carriage witnessed Feng Shiwu's performance and silently gave him a thumbs up in her heart.
She gave this performance full marks.
Outside, a path appeared in the middle of the big men's encirclement, and the scarred man walked over from behind.
The scarred man stopped in front of the carriage. He glanced at Feng Shiwu, who was trembling with fear, with contempt in his eyes. These people, who appeared to be dressed in bright and beautiful clothes and relied on their status to act arrogantly, all looked the same and cowardly when they came to him.
ridiculous.
"Tie him up and take him away."
…
In the dim and damp dungeon, Wanyue, Feng Shiwu, and Xiuhe were tied up and locked together. Outside, two big men were sitting around a table drinking, and the sound of finger-guessing games filled the entire dungeon.
Wanyue looked at them for a while and found that the two big men were drinking and didn't pay any attention to them at all.
In that case, she won't be polite.
Wanyue turned her wrists a few times, and the rope tied around her hands instantly loosened and fell to the ground.
Xiuhe next to her widened her eyes, looking at Wanyue with eyes full of light.
The princess is so amazing!
He broke free from the rope so easily.
After loosening her stiff wrists, Wanyue turned around to help Feng Shiwu and Xiuhe untie the ropes.
After a few minutes, the ropes tied around the three people were successfully untied.
Outside, two big men were still playing finger-guessing games and drinking.
Wanyue walked over lightly, came behind the two big men, raised her palms, and hit the back of their heads and necks without any hesitation.
The next second, the two big men fell limply onto the table.
Feng Shiwu and Xiuhe came over, and Wanyue began to lay out her plan. "This is a dungeon. Anyone captured by these bandits should be locked up in here. Shiwu and I will go look for them separately. Xiuhe, find a secluded place to hide. I'll come get you when we're done."
Xiuhe is very clear about her abilities. If she goes, she will only cause trouble for the princess. Hiding is the best solution.
"Princess, please be careful."
Wanyue patted Xiuhe's shoulder and said, "Just hide well. I'll come find you later."
Xiuhe nodded heavily, turned around and ran into the darkness.
After Xiuhe left, Feng Shiwu and Wanyue stood face to face. Wanyue pointed to the intersection on the right and said, "Shiwu, I'll look this way, you go the other way."
Feng Shiwu didn't respond. His gaze slid down to Wanyue's bandaged right hand. "Master, your injury hasn't healed yet. I'm worried about you being alone."
After hearing these words, Wanyue was dissatisfied. The young guard didn't believe in her ability!
How is this possible?
Wanyue raised her hand and patted her chest, trying to promote her own abilities. "Fifteen, you underestimate me. I can do it!"
