Just as Lin Xiuyan was about to fall to the ground, she quickly grabbed the bed to prevent herself from falling.
She sat down and massaged herself to relieve the soreness in her body, then used her light-footed skills to go downstairs.
As time went on, Princess Anle's complexion worsened. (M.cascoo.net)
Because he knew that Ye Junfei's poison would not take effect.
Qingyuan came to report to him: "The poisonous bee was killed last night. In addition to him, more than ten guards under his command were also killed."
Princess Anle brought quite a few guards, but with these successive losses, one-third of the total has already been lost.
He didn't even need to think to know that Poison Bee must have been killed by Ye Junfei's men.
Just then, a guard came forward to report: "Traces of Ye Junfei have been found on the east side of the town."
The east side appears to be the weakest point in Princess Anle's defenses, but it is actually a trap.
Ye Junfei chose to suddenly surround him from there, which meant he had walked into Ye Junfei's trap.
He immediately said coldly, "Issue my order: kill Ye Junfei at any cost!"
All the guards responded in unison.
Princess Anle then asked, "Have you seen Lin Xiuyan?"
The guard replied, "There was only Ye Junfei and a few guards; we did not see Lin Xiuyan."
Princess Anle frowned. If Lin Xiuyan wasn't with Ye Junfei, where was she?
He hesitated for a moment, then said to Qingyuan, "Come with me to take a look."
Qingyuan responded, saying that they had already laid a tight net there, so there would be no danger.
Princess Anle glanced inside the clinic as she passed by it on her way downstairs.
Yu Zhan was sitting in the chair, groaning, "Ouch, it hurts so much!"
"Why does it hurt so much! It hurts so much that I can't even stand up or walk."
Princess Anle snorted coldly, too lazy to pay her any attention, and strode away.
After exchanging a few words with Yu Zhan last night, he knew she wasn't the kind of person who could be easily manipulated.
Even if he asked Yu Zhan to lead a group to besiege Ye Junfei today, she would only verbally agree and not actually help. She might even cause some trouble.
Since that's the case, it's better for him to do it himself.
After he killed Ye Junfei, Yu Zhan had no other choice but to obediently listen to him.
After they had gone some distance, the lookout said to Yu Zhan, "General, they have gone far away."
Yu Zhan immediately stopped shouting, frowning as he said, "You won't give me any benefits, you just want to make me cannon fodder, dream on!"
The strategist said softly, "But General, this might offend Princess Anle."
"If we offend him, our lives will probably not be easy from now on."
Yu Zhan said calmly, "We haven't submitted to him yet, so what are we afraid of!"
"All he does now is threaten me, he won't offer me any benefits, why should I obey him?"
The strategist knew her temperament and looked somewhat worried.
Yu Zhan added, "The royal family members are cold-hearted by nature, and only care about their own interests."
“Right now he needs us, so his attitude isn’t very good. But if he grows stronger in the future, the first thing he’ll do is deal with us.”
Anxiety flickered in the strategist's eyes: "What do we do now? Should we seek refuge with the Prince of Pingnan's household?"
Yu Zhan's eyes flickered: "This matter is not urgent. I also want to know what kind of person Ye Junfei is and what kind of abilities he has."
"He managed to escape from Princess Anle's inescapable trap last night, and it's quite exciting to think about how he'll turn the tables today."
Such a grand spectacle is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; she must watch it closely.
The strategist asked her, "Why does the general think Ye Junfei can turn the tide?"
Yu Zhan replied, "Lin Xiuyan managed to escape from that situation last night and caught us completely off guard."
"I greatly admire Lin Xiuyan's abilities. A man who can catch Lin Xiuyan's eye must be quite remarkable."
If she were to seek refuge with someone else, she would definitely choose the strongest one.
This strength doesn't necessarily mean an extremely strong background; strong personal ability is also acceptable.
Otherwise, they would easily be crushed into dust.
The strategist felt that there seemed to be something wrong with her logic, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
Yu Zhan then said to him, "Don't just stand there like an idiot, come on, let's go see what's going on."
Strategist: "..."
Yu Zhan quickly got up. Her injuries were not minor, but she acted as if nothing had happened.
When they arrived, Ye Junfei was already surrounded by Princess Anle's men.
He was dressed in white, holding a sword with blood dripping from its tip, and stood there calmly.
His snow-white coat was stained with bloodstains, like blooming red plum blossoms, yet alluring and seductive.
Yu Zhan first saw his back. With a foxtail grass in her mouth, she smiled and commented, "To remain calm in the midst of crisis, that's quite remarkable!"
"Perfect body proportions, I just don't know what her face looks like."
The strategist, who had been by her side for a long time, was not too surprised by her reaction and could only sigh helplessly.
Just then, Ye Junfei slowly turned around, revealing exquisitely handsome features:
Her eyes were captivating, her beauty mark was bright red, her nose was straight, her lips were perfectly thin, and her facial features were in perfect proportion.
Everything was built upon Yu Zhan's aesthetic.
Her lips were slightly parted, and the foxtail grass she was holding fell to the ground.
She murmured, "Holy crap, he looks exactly like my dream man!"
"If I had known he looked like this, I would never have talked to Princess Anle yesterday!"
Her advisor reminded her, "General, good looks can't put food on the table!"
"Also, he's surrounded by Princess Anle now and will die soon."
Yu Zhan said with some regret, "That's true."
The strategist, recalling her manner of doing things, couldn't help but remind her, "General, you're not going to rescue him, are you?"
Yu Zhan laughed: "Of course not! No matter how handsome he is, he belongs to Lin Xiuyan, not me."
"I just think he's good-looking, that's all."
The strategist breathed a sigh of relief.
Yu Zhan added, "Judging from his calm and composed demeanor, he must have a backup plan."
“If he were so easy to kill, Lin Xiuyan would never have married him.”
"I've never seen such a superb man fight before. I'm in for a treat today."
She wished she could bring a stool over and sit here to watch them fight.
Princess Anle said coldly, "Ye Junfei, how did you manage to escape last night?"
Ye Junfei's eyes were as gentle as the warm sun in March as he said softly, "You escaped a calamity? The princess is joking."
"Last night I was merely taking Xiuyan to admire the bright moon in the mountains, why did I need to run away?"
Princess Anle's expression changed slightly, and Ye Junfei said with a smile, "As for the medicinal ingredients you used to fill the entire town yesterday, they were really quite good."
"That light fragrance is perfect for creating the right atmosphere for a date."
