Chapter 266 Perfect Evasion
Xiao Xian didn't want to kill Jiang Tangtang, he just wanted to cause confusion among Jiang Tangtang's guards.
Arrows were shot at Jiang Tangtang. In order to protect Jiang Tangtang's safety, the guards would do anything to protect Jiang Tangtang's safety.
Maybe they could even accidentally injure a few people, relieving the pressure on them to abduct people. Even if Jiang Tang's guards were not good enough and could not help Jiang Tangtang block the arrows, there was no need to worry, as they did not shoot at Jiang Tangtang's vital points.
But obviously, he still underestimated Jiang Tangtang's guards.
At the moment the rain of arrows was shot out, the guards all rushed over to protect Jiang Tangtang as they expected, but they were not so panicked that they lost their way.
Jiang Tangtang's reaction was even more beyond his expectations.
She actually pulled Lu Zhixi and relied on herself to avoid their rain of arrows.
She dodged so quickly that they couldn't see it clearly.
When they saw her again, she had already taken Lu Zhixi to sit on the tiger's back and quickly disappeared from their sight.
As for when the tiger appeared, they also didn't figure it out.
Of course, they had no time to study those things at this time. After Jiang Tangtang escaped from danger, Jiang Tangtang's guards launched an even more fierce and brutal attack on them.
Moreover, they used a variety of methods, including poison, arrows, and knives. Soon, all the masters of the imperial court, led by Xiao Xian, were captured alive.
Xiao Xian didn't know what drug had taken him. He just felt that he had no strength left in his body. Not to mention escaping, he couldn't even commit suicide by biting his fangs.
Looking at his subordinates who were covered in wounds and lying powerlessly on the ground like him, it was obvious that they were also poisoned by some unknown poison like him and could only lie on the ground and be slaughtered.
Yuan San led his men to check the surrounding woods. After confirming that all the assassins today had been caught, he fearfully took out a special flare, pulled the safety rope, and threw the flare into the air.
Colorful fireworks exploded in the air instantly.
After a while, Jiang Tangtang brought Lu Zhixi and rode on a tiger and leaped in front of the people.
Yuan San was about to kneel down and confess his crime to Jiang Tangtang, but Jiang Tangtang raised her hand to stop him. "Have you asked them all? What are the identities of these people?"
Jiang Tangtang rode on Lili and did not get off. Lili glanced majestically at Xiao Xian and others lying on the ground.
Xiao Xian inexplicably felt that the tiger's eyes were filled with anger and contempt when it looked at them.
Xiao Xian forgot to worry about his own life, forgot to think about his unfinished task, and even became distracted thinking, is this really just a tiger?
"I haven't tortured them yet. After seeing everyone being arrested, I immediately sent a signal to inform my wife." Yuan San was injured, but he didn't care about the wounds and continued to half-kneel on the ground.
If it weren't for his wife's quick reaction and the help of the gods today, he would not be able to make up for his mistake today even if he died a hundred times.
"Let's bandage the wound first!" Jiang Tangtang put his hand into his sleeve in a pretentious manner. Using the cover of his clothes, he took out the medicine for the wound from the space and handed it to Yuan San. "Let the brothers treat their wounds first. Today's incident happened suddenly. It's not your fault. Don't blame yourself."
Yuan San and his guards were moved to tears of gratitude, and felt even more remorseful.
It was clearly their fault for not being alert enough. They hadn't noticed the enemy hiding in the bushes, yet the lady actually comforted them. They truly felt guilty towards her...
Xiao Xian and the others lying on the ground felt complicated after hearing Jiang Tangtang's words.
If something like this went wrong while they were protecting the emperor, the emperor would punish them immediately, and the entire guard team might even lose their heads.
But what about Mrs. Lu?
Not only did he not punish his men, but he personally delivered medicine to them...
Xiao Xian and other palace masters could hardly help but think in their hearts that this was the demeanor that a superior should have. It would be a blessing for the people if such a person became the ruler of a country.
Jiang Tangtang didn't know that her casual act of kindness deeply moved the captives.
After she was sure the crisis was over, she finally had time to care about Lu Zhixi, "How are you? Can you come down?"
Lu Zhixi hugged Jiang Tangtang's waist tightly, as if he was still in a dream. "Sister-in-law, am I sitting on a tiger?"
"Didn't you confirm it just now?" The moment the arrow attacked, Jiang Tangtang grabbed Lu Zhixi, quickly flashed into the space and landed on Lili, and then quickly flashed out of the space.
The entire process took less than a second, but this time difference allowed Jiang Tangtang and Lu Zhixi to quickly avoid the flying arrows. Their flying speed allowed them to dash several thousand meters away when they reappeared in the forest.
Lu Zhixi was so frightened that she didn't realize she had gone into space. She only knew that she followed Jiang Tangtang's movements and appeared on the tiger in a daze.
Although I had heard that my sister-in-law raised a majestic tiger, I didn't see it when I came back this time.
And I heard that it was completely different from sitting on the back of a tiger.
She was so scared that her legs went weak and she dared not move.
Seeing that she was really scared, Jiang Tangtang switched seats with her and asked her to sit behind him. To dispel her fear, he even asked her to touch Lili's head as a gesture of affection.
"But I still can't believe that I can sit on the back of a tiger." Lu Zhixi got down from the ground tremblingly. She was not at all frightened by the assassination attempt. Her mind and eyes were full of the thought that she had just ridden a tiger.
Lili rolled her eyes in disgust at Lu Zhixi.
Jiang Tangtang said with a smile, "That's good. Let's pack up today and go back first! If you're interested in the orchard, come back next time. It would be great if we could build more in Lingnan in the future."
Lu Zhixi's gaze followed Jiang Tangtang and fell on the captive on the ground.
When she faced Xiao Xian, she instantly regained her savage temper and stepped on Xiao Xian's head. "Tell me, why did you want to assassinate us? Who sent you?"
Although Jiang Tangtang did not take action like Lu Zhixi, his eyes also fell on the captives.
But Xiao Xian naturally refused to say it.
At this time, Yuan San came over and reported to Jiang Tangtang in a low voice: "They are not ordinary people. Their martial arts skills are very high. If we didn't have the medicine given by the madam, we might not be able to capture them all today."
He was not trying to excuse himself. It was just that these people were too skilled, far superior to them, so he didn't notice that they were hiding in the dark.
"Expert?" Jiang Tangtang narrowed her eyes.
Hearing that he was a master, Lu Zhixi immediately asked, "Is he someone sent by that dog emperor of the Great Zhou?"
Jiang Tangtang felt that it was most likely the case. After all, it was difficult for ordinary people to command so many experts at once.
"Take them back for interrogation first! If they don't cooperate, consult General Xie."
After Jiang Tangtang finished explaining, as if suddenly remembering something, "Oh right, remember to save your life no matter what. With skills like that, it would be great if he could be put to work in the bottom of a mine."
Xiao Xian and the others were stunned.
Why did they think she was gentle and kind just now?
