Princess Hui'an asked in confusion, "By the way, why are you here? Isn't it dangerous for you to come out alone in the middle of the night?"
Su Xiaoxiao said calmly: "Since you knew it was dangerous, why did you sneak out of the palace?"
"I'm not..." Princess Hui'an muttered, "Do I want to teach you a lesson?"
She said the latter sentence with some lack of confidence.
I wanted to teach someone a lesson, but in the end, that person saved himself.
So embarrassing.
"Let's go." Su Xiaoxiao said.
This girl...won't she take the opportunity to ridicule me?
Princess Hui'an was stunned for a moment, then looked at Su Xiaoxiao and said, "That..."
Su Xiaoxiao asked calmly: "What?"
"I..." Princess Hui'an bit her lip lightly, "I can't walk."
Su Xiaoxiao didn't even raise her eyelids and continued walking forward.
Princess Hui'an covered her aching upper abdomen and followed Su Xiaoxiao angrily: "I really can't walk anymore... I didn't eat anything at night... I just cried for so long... and vomited..."
The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she felt, and tears began to fall again.
She squatted on the ground and cried, "You hate me, why did you come to save me? You might as well let them take me away... Woo ah..."
Su Xiaoxiao closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Xiaohu can’t cry as hard as you!
Su Xiaoxiao turned back to her.
Princess Hui'an said angrily: "Go away! Go away! Why did you come back? Just let me be captured..."
Su Xiaoxiao reached out and handed her something.
Princess Hui'an turned her face away and cried, "I don't want your handkerchief!"
"It's sugar."
Su Xiaoxiao wrote this.
Princess Hui'an was startled, raised her head with tears in her eyes, looked at the candy in Su Xiaoxiao's hand, and swallowed her saliva unwillingly.
She sobbed and asked, "Are you trying to poison me?"
Su Xiaoxiao said calmly: "Yes, do you dare to eat it?"
Princess Hui'an sniffed and said aggrievedly, "It's better to die of fullness than to die of hunger..."
Princess Hui'an ate three pieces in one go.
"What kind of candy is this? It smells delicious. I've never eaten it in the palace."
“Peanut nougat.”
"I've never heard of it, but it tastes good. Is it a specialty of your Qingzhou?" She remembered that the chubby girl grew up in Qingzhou.
"no."
"Bought it in the capital? Which shop?"
Su Xiaoxiao glanced at her and said, "You talk a lot. Do you have the energy?"
Princess Hui'an's eyes flickered.
Su Xiaoxiao put the bow and arrow on her back and said, "Go when you have the strength. When that person finds out that the carriage is empty, he will know that we have been tricked into leaving the mountain."
Princess Hui'an was so frightened that she stood up quickly.
The two of them walked forward.
However, the man in black still caught up.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at him as light as a swallow and narrowed her eyes slightly.
It’s great to have Qinggong skills, she also wants to learn it.
The man in black blocked their way.
Princess Hui'an flashed behind Su Xiaoxiao! The man in black looked Su Xiaoxiao up and down and said, "Are you Qin Canglan's granddaughter?"
Su Xiaoxiao pointed her sword and said, "Stop talking nonsense and come over here."
The man in black said disdainfully: "Little girl, I admire your courage, but you are no match for me. Hand over the princess and follow me back obediently, and I will consider sparing your life."
Su Xiaoxiao said arrogantly: "It's not a big thing, but it's a big mouth."
When the man in black realized what the girl had said, his face darkened: "You!"
"What do you mean?" Princess Hui'an asked in a low voice.
Su Xiaoxiao said, "Don't ask questions, little girl."
Princess Hui'an: "..."
The man in black became furious and drew his sword to kill Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao said to Princess Hui'an, "Stand here and don't walk around!"
"Yes." Princess Hui'an nodded obediently.
Su Xiaoxiao stepped forward with a sword.
The weapons clashed, creating a series of sparks.
The man in black didn't expect that the little girl would actually catch his move.
His eyes turned slightly cold.
"That's it?" Su Xiaoxiao asked indifferently.
But in fact, her arm was slightly numb. This man in black was much more powerful than the previous two.
Although his move seemed brave, he actually only used less than five percent of his strength. After all, he wanted to capture himself alive.
Soon, the man in black swung his second sword.
The sword that Su Xiaoxiao snatched from the two men was not as sharp as the sword of the man in black.
During the third confrontation, she vaguely felt that the sword was about to be broken.
The man in black curled his lips into a smile and kicked towards Su Xiaoxiao's lower body.
Su Xiaoxiao pushed down, used the force to flip sideways, and pulled out the dagger from his waist.
She flipped over his head, and the moment she landed, the blade stabbed his back fiercely! The man in black was so painful that his face twisted, and he turned around and stabbed him with a sword.
Clang! His sword was cut off! "How is this possible?"
He looked at the other dagger in Su Xiaoxiao's hand in disbelief.
"What kind of weapon is this?"
Su Xiaoxiao said coldly: "You don't deserve to know!"
On the other side, Princess Hui'an watched the two men fighting nervously, her heart in her throat.
The man in black was injured, but he still looked like he could fight.
What should I do?
"Princess!"
Princess Hui'an heard the familiar voice, turned around and took a closer look, and said in surprise: "Xiao Zhuozi! Why are you here?"
Xiao Zhuozi panted and said, "They captured me. I managed to escape with great difficulty. After I escaped, I have been looking for the princess's whereabouts!"
Princess Hui'an looked behind him and asked, "Where is Taohong? Where is she?"
Xiao Zhuozi's eyes flashed: "I... don't know, maybe he was imprisoned somewhere else. Princess, let's go back to the palace!"
Princess Hui'an said, "No, Miss Su is still over there. I have to wait for her."
Princess Hui'an insisted, "I can't abandon her!"
Xiao Zhuozi said awkwardly: "But... you don't know martial arts, and staying here will only be a hindrance. It's better to find a safe place to hide first."
Princess Hui'an said solemnly: "She risked her life for me, but I hid myself away. What kind of person am I?"
Xiao Zhuozi had a headache: "Slave...slave means...Miss Su seems to be very skilled, she will be fine."
Princess Hui'an looked at Xiao Zhuozi like she was a fool and said, "Since she is so skilled, shouldn't we follow her? Neither you nor I can fight, what should we do if we encounter an assassin?"
Xiao Zhuozi was left speechless.
He was so stupid in the palace, but now his brain starts to work better.
Since soft tactics don’t work, we have to resort to hard tactics.
Xiao Zhuozi unnoticeably pulled out a handkerchief smeared with knockout drugs and said, "Princess, I'm sorry."
"What did you say?"
"My servant said, what do you see over there?"
Princess Hui'an turned in the direction of his finger.
A hint of coldness flashed across Xiao Zhuozi's eyes. He reached out his hand from behind Princess Hui'an and suddenly lifted up the handkerchief.
At the critical moment, a dagger flew from the air and hit his shoulder!
He was knocked away by the huge force and fell heavily to the ground. His head hit a stone on the side of the road and he died on the spot.
When Princess Hui'an heard the noise, she turned around in horror.
The knockout drug that Xiao Zhuozi had dispersed also fell down in scattered groups.
A hand covered her mouth and nose and took her several steps back.
"It's a knockout drug!"
Su Xiaoxiao wrote this.
Princess Hui'an was shocked and looked at the handkerchief on the ground in disbelief, then at Xiao Zhuozi who had fallen to the ground.
"How, how could this happen?"
Her legs went weak and she clutched Su Xiaoxiao's wrist tightly, as if she were grabbing a life-saving straw.
"Huian!"
Xiao Duye rode his horse and rushed out from the darkness.
Princess Hui'an's eyes turned red: "Big brother!"
Xiao Duye tightened the reins, jumped off the horse without waiting for it to stop, and walked towards Princess Hui'an in a hurry.
He held Princess Hui'an's shoulders and looked at her with great concern: "Huian! Are you okay?"
Princess Hui'an threw herself into his arms and cried loudly: "Brother——"
Xiao Duye was the son of Concubine Yu, and Concubine Yu's backer was the Queen. The relationship between Kunning Palace and Qixiang Palace had always been tense, and Xiao Duye was not very close to Princess Hui'an.
But no matter what, Xiao Duye is Princess Hui'an's elder brother.
After experiencing such a terrible thing, Princess Hui'an's heart became extremely fragile. Seeing her elder brother coming to find her so anxiously, she couldn't help but develop a sense of dependence on him.
"Don't be afraid, big brother is here, and big brother won't let anyone hurt you again."
While comforting his sister, Xiao Duye took off his cloak and put it on Princess Hui'an.
Princess Hui'an tearfully asked, "Brother, why didn't my third brother come?"
Xiao Duye said softly, "We have all come out to look for you. Your third brother has gone somewhere else. You haven't told me if you are okay?"
Princess Hui'an cried, "My feet are so sore, my hands are so painful... They tied me up with ropes, didn't give me food... and forced me to change into such ugly clothes..."
Princess Hui'an grew up surrounded by the stars, and before today, she had never suffered any hardship.
——Being beaten up by Princess Jingning didn’t count; that was a fight between the two of them, and she couldn’t beat Jingning.
Xiao Duye's eyes were full of heartache: "Brother will send you back to the palace right now. Don't worry, brother will seek justice for you. By the way, where is Xiao Zhuozi beside you?"
A guard from the prince's palace said, "Your Highness, Xiao Zhuozi is here! He...he is dead!"
"What?" Xiao Duye's face changed.
He glanced around, as if he had just noticed Su Xiaoxiao standing beside him: "Doctor Su?"
Su Xiaoxiao walked over as if no one was around, bent down, pulled out the dagger from Xiao Zhuozi's shoulder, and wiped it with a clean handkerchief.
Xiao Duye was shocked and angry: "It was you who killed Xiao Zhuozi!"
Su Xiaoxiao asked: "So what?"
I gave you a stage, and you still acted like this? Princess Hui'an said hurriedly: "Brother, don't get me wrong, it was Xiao Zhuozi who wanted to drug me, and Miss Su wanted to save me... Although I don't understand... why did Xiao Zhuozi do that... I was so good to him... why did he treat me like this..."
Compared to being captured by the assassin, Xiao Zhuozi's betrayal was a bigger blow to her.
Although Princess Hui'an grew up in the palace, Emperor Jingxuan, Concubine Xian and Xiao Chonghua protected her very well.
She grew up smoothly and had never experienced any intrigue. Even if she had a fight with Jingning, it was done openly.
Xiao Duye asked, "Did you see Xiao Zhuozi drug you with your own eyes? Or did she tell you?"
"I……"
Xiao Duye interrupted Princess Hui'an and said, "If she told you, then it is very likely that she threw the knockout drug out when she killed Xiao Zhuozi, and then lied that it was Xiao Zhuozi who drugged you!"
Princess Hui'an said seriously: "No!"
Xiao Duye reminded: "Huian, she is Jingning's friend."
Princess Hui'an snorted, "So what? She saved me tonight. Besides, Jingning won't hurt me!"
She would just hit me.
Princess Hui'an said resentfully in her heart.
Xiao Duye said earnestly: "Huian, people's hearts are unpredictable, you don't understand. Well, my brother will take care of things here, you go back to the palace first."
"no!"
Princess Hui'an came to Su Xiaoxiao decisively and said, "Brother, I won't let you take her away!"
Xiao Duye clenched his fists.
First it was Jingning, and now it's Hui'an. What kind of magic potion did this girl give to his sisters, or did she have some evil magic to control people's minds? Xiao Duye said seriously, "Come here, take Princess Hui'an away."
"Yes." A cavalryman dismounted and came over.
Princess Hui'an said, "Big brother!"
Xiao Duye said with a complicated expression: "Sister, I'm sorry. I will apologize to the emperor when I see him later!"
After saying that, he looked at Su Xiaoxiao with cold eyes.
"Take her down!"
More than ten cavalrymen rushed forward and surrounded Su Xiaoxiao.
At this moment, there was a sudden burst of hurried horse hoof sounds from behind, shaking the entire ground.
The cavalrymen panicked.
Xiao Duye frowned and turned back in confusion.
I saw a group of black heavy cavalry, wearing armor that shone coldly, holding sharp and shining spears, with the momentum to trample through mountains and rivers, like a ghost army in the dark night, coming from the Palace of Yama with murderous intent!
A cavalryman exclaimed: "It's the Qin family's cavalry!"
Since it was interrupted in the middle, I will post the third and fourth chapters together. My dears, remember to vote! (End of this chapter)
