In the darkness, several arrows shot towards the crowd.
No one expected that something like this would happen at the Queen's Thousand Years Banquet.
Everyone was suddenly panicked and just wanted to protect themselves as much as possible.
The originally joyful banquet suddenly became noisy and chaotic.
Several ministers kept shouting, "Protect the emperor! Protect the emperor!"
Eunuch Li widened his eyes in horror, and like a hen protecting her chicks, he opened his arms to protect the emperor, and at the same time used the whisk in his hand to deflect several arrows that were shot at him.
Jun Moyi's pupils shrank, and he waved his long sleeves to block several feather arrows for Sang Liwan. He saw Sang Liwan staring at him blankly, as if he was still in the chaos and had not come to his senses.
Jun Moyi curled his lips into a smile and stood in front of Sang Liwan without making a sound. "Are you scared?"
Sang Liwan didn't answer him. She just glanced at the chaotic scene around her and asked in a low voice, "Who are you targeting?"
Hearing this, a hint of sarcasm flashed across Jun Moyi's eyes, "It's either you or me."
Sang Liwan opened her mouth to refute, but saw that the dancer who was originally dancing in the middle of the stage suddenly changed her previous gentle expression, her face was as cold as ice, and she drew a soft sword from her waist and rushed straight to the emperor sitting on the high platform.
"You dog emperor, give me your life!"
"Father!"
When Jun Mochen saw this scene, he was so frightened that his face turned pale. He wanted to go up to protect the emperor, but when he saw Chen Yan, who was weak and helpless beside him, he did not move his steps.
Seeing this, the queen looked at Chen Yan with a gaze as sharp as a knife.
This woman must not be promised to Chen'er!
On the other side, Jun Moyi did not agree with Sang Liwan's words after hearing them. He stretched out his hand to protect Sang Liwan, but his arm was accidentally cut by a stray arrow, and blood soaked his blue clothes.
Sang Liwan's pupils suddenly shrank, "What are you doing?"
She saw clearly that Jun Moyi could have avoided that arrow.
However, Jun Moyi didn't even bother to look at her, with the familiar smile from Sang Liwan still hanging on his lips, "I am right beside you, how can I watch you get hurt?"
Sang Liwan bit her lip and asked, "Does the prince think that I'm some weak and frail woman?"
Before he finished speaking, Sang Liwan moved to the right to avoid an arrow, then picked up the chopsticks on the table and knocked the two arrows away with two clangs.
In an instant, Jun Moyi's eyes were filled with brilliance.
"Wanwan, you really can surprise me."
Not far away, Chen Yan's expression changed slightly when he saw Sang Liwan's actions.
Jun Mochen, who was sitting next to her, thought she was frightened. Although he was also panicked by the sudden situation, he subconsciously comforted her, "Yan Yan, don't be afraid, I will protect you."
Chen Yan clenched her hands tightly under the table, her nails digging into her palms, but she didn't feel any pain at all.
Before she could figure it all out, she saw Sang Liwan suddenly raise his head and look straight at her. Their eyes met, and a hint of understanding appeared in Sang Liwan's eyes.
She snorted softly, "Sure enough, they're coming for us."
Jun Moyi didn't care about the purpose of the person behind the scenes at all. He was only focused on protecting Sang Liwan.
But Sang Liwan obviously thought more.
She raised her head and saw a group of guards loyally protecting the emperor and the empress on the high platform. Eunuch Li was at the front, and it was obvious that he hated these assassins to the core.
If the emperor died, he would certainly not be able to survive. These people wanted the emperor's life, isn't that the same as wanting his life?
Sang Liwan did not explain to Jun Moyi, but picked up a knife from the guard's body on the ground and fought with the assassin.
Everyone was stunned by this scene, and Jun Moyi even clenched his fingers that were originally on the armrest of the wheelchair because of her sudden movement.
He originally just wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the fight, but because of Sang Liwan's actions, his patience ran out. He casually waved his sleeves, and several arrows that were originally aimed at him all flew backwards in an instant.
Jun Moyi slapped his hand casually, and the wheelchair slid quickly and hit an assassin.
Thanks to Sang Liwan and Jun Moyi's actions, the situation was quickly brought under control.
At this time, everyone looked at Sang Liwan with a thoughtful look.
Gu Huaizhi said bluntly, "I never knew that Princess An was such a heroine."
Seeing that the situation was under control, Sang Liwan casually threw away the steel knife in his hand, and his clear voice reached everyone's ears, "My father is the general who protects the country. Now that he is gone, I naturally have to shoulder this responsibility."
Sang Liwan didn't know whether the original owner had this ability, but now she could only attribute the reason for her own skills to the original owner's background.
At this time, the ministers who had just seen Sang Liwan struggling to protect the emperor began to feel nervous.
Why was General Sang imprisoned?
It seems like he intends to rebel?
If he had the intention of rebellion, why would his daughter risk her life to protect the emperor?
They all saw how Sang Liwan looked just now. It was a completely reckless fighting style.
The emperor looked at Sang Liwan deeply. He also had many doubts in his mind, but he knew that this was not a good time to speak, so he could only endure it reluctantly.
He gave Eunuch Li a look, and Eunuch Li immediately walked up to the dancer who had led the group and demanded in a stern voice, "Tell me! Who are you? Why did you want to assassinate the emperor?"
The dancer had a look of someone who would rather die than surrender. Even though she was forced to kneel on the ground, her back remained straight, like a poplar that would rather die than bend.
"Everyone has the right to kill the dog emperor!"
Such a seemingly plausible statement certainly could not satisfy the emperor.
Eunuch Li showed no sign of kindness towards the man who had nearly killed him. He waved his blood-stained whisk vigorously, "Stop telling us these useless things. Tell me, who is the master behind you? Who ordered you to assassinate the Emperor?"
The dancer paid no attention to Eunuch Li's harsh words and even spat in his face in disdain, "Kill me if you want. I won't say a word."
Having said that, her gaze passed over Sang Liwan inconspicuously.
It was very fast, but some people still saw it.
For example, the Queen.
The queen felt that she had grasped an important clue, and hurriedly stopped Eunuch Li who was about to get angry, then walked up to the dancer and tried to trick her into revealing the mastermind behind the scenes.
"You're still so young, why risk your life for the person behind the scenes? You're almost dead, and your master hasn't come out to speak for you. Are you sure you want to continue to be loyal to such a master?"
But the dancer still remained unmoved. No matter what you said, she just wouldn't give in.
After trying several times, the Queen didn't get any useful response.
Finally, her patience ran out, and she pointed at Sang Liwan and asked, "Did Princess An order you to do this?"
