Fu Mingchi raised his spear and just as he was repelling several assassins who were rushing towards him, several arrows shot towards his face.
Fu Mingchi held the silver spear with both hands and jumped lightly. Arrows flashed past his body. Suddenly, he heard three or two assassins wailing and falling down.
Just as he was secretly breathing a sigh of relief, several large swords came down silently from above his head and chopped down towards his face.
Fu Mingchi was startled and quickly moved his body to cleverly avoid the attacking assassin, but several arrows shot out accurately in the night.
Fu Mingchi was unable to dodge and an arrow pierced his chest and abdomen.
Not far away, Zhu Wencai fought desperately against the assassins for a while, then realized something was wrong and found that the assassins were rushing towards His Highness like crazy. However, in the blink of an eye, he was surrounded by dozens of assassins.
"Your Highness." Zhu Wencai rushed out of the blockade in a hurry and fought to the death to get to Fu Mingchi.

Just as he tried to take a deep breath, his whole body went limp and he fell off the horse.
"Your Highness."
Zhu Wencai quickly pulled out the two arrows from his shoulders, stepped forward to support Fu Mingchi tightly, and cried hysterically: "I am incompetent. I failed to protect Miss Ye, and I failed to protect the safety of His Highness."
"Why are you crying? Cheer up."
The corners of his mouth trembled and blood continued to seep out. Fu Mingchi forced himself to stand up straight. "The Concubine Dowager and the Princess are still waiting for me to return and take charge of the situation. Help me mount my horse and hurry on my way."
Zhu Wencai choked up and tightened his tear glands. He and the guards hurriedly helped him onto his mount, and accompanied him fearfully as they continued on their journey to Yuzhou.
