Mo Zhu was stunned for a moment, then took the handkerchief. There was a faint fragrance on it, the same smell as Xie Qingyao's.
Madam, you are too gentle.
Xie Linqian came over and asked, "Is Qingyao scared?"
Xie Qingyao shook her head. Where was the fear in her dark eyes?
"The first time is the second time, the second time is the third time. I have experience in this matter and I have become more courageous."
Xie Linqian: "Hmm? Did someone try to deal with you before?"
Xie Qingyao said bluntly, "Yes, it was the deceased Concubine Qiao. I had some grudges with Prince An, so she sent someone to assassinate me. Fortunately, the Marquis saved me."
Xie Linqian's face darkened. "How could this happen? If Concubine Qiao were still alive..." He didn't continue.
If anyone dares to harm his precious daughter, he will make her experience what it means to be unable to live or die.
However, after hearing what Xie Qingyao said, she became more and more satisfied with He Zheng as her son-in-law.
This wave of assassinations did not affect Xie Qingyao's mood, and she continued to eat, drink and have fun as usual.
They just changed their strategy slightly and assigned ten of the original twenty guards to be secret guards, while all the others were tortured into looking traumatized.
The carriage was moving faster and faster, as if it was trying to reach Runan in a hurry to avoid encountering any more danger.
They traveled like this for two days.
At nightfall.
There were faint sounds coming from the jungle.
Suddenly, there was a flash of silver light, and in an instant, dozens of killers came like ghosts with knives in their hands.
Outnumbered, the guards gradually felt exhausted and could only protect Xie Qingyao and the others as they retreated and found a place to hide.
Xie Qingyao abandoned the carriage.
"Madam, please run away!" Shuangyue cut a way out for her.
Mo Zhu pulled Xie Qingyao and ran.
"Don't let her escape! Don't leave any of her alive!" the killer yelled.
In an instant, another wave of killers appeared, and this time they were serious and wanted to kill Xie Qingyao completely.
"If we don't succeed today, we'll die. If we let Xie Qingyao get close to Runan, then that will be Xie's territory, and it will be difficult to find another opportunity to attack!"
"Madam, madam, run quickly." The maids cried.
Xie Qingyao breathed heavily. The last time she ran for her life was when she was being chased by the Northern Desert spies.
She turned her head and looked behind her. The crowd of killers was quite spectacular. The people behind it were really cruel.
"I can't run anymore." Xie Qingyao said suddenly.
Then Mo Zhu saw her fall straight down.
“…”
She took a deep breath and immediately shouted, "Madam! What's wrong with you?"
"Oh no! Madam has been shot by an arrow! The arrow is poisonous!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the enemy camp was ecstatic.
Succeeded.
At this time, the sound of galloping horses' hooves rang out, and it was particularly clear in the mountains and forests.
Everyone was shocked and confused. How could there be the sound of horse hooves?
