Chapter 1047: Fierce Battle at Dabao Temple
When they looked up, they saw countless soldiers outside the open temple gate with their swords drawn and bows and arrows strung, aiming at them.
Prince Ning Zhu Xuan, who was standing in the center, had a smile on his face.
"finally found you."
“……!”
Ran Xiaoyu couldn't believe her eyes.
Didn't Mingxin just bring back news that Prince Ning's Mansion had issued a proclamation against rebellion, and weren't they planning to send troops today? Why was Zhu Xuan here?
She looked at him in shock.
Zhu Xuan, who had always only seen Ran Xiaoyu's cold expression and rolling eyes, felt a little satisfied when he saw her astonished look.
Finally, he made her show a different expression.
It's not simple, it can only make her disgusted.
Then, waving his fan, he smiled and said, "Xiaoyu, why do you have such an expression when you see me?"
“…”
"Did you not expect it, or was it too surprising?"
It was indeed too surprising, but there was no joy at all.
She frowned, as if responding to him, but also as if talking to herself: "You, why are you here?"
Zhu Xuan looked at her, then at her cloaked attire, and said, "Ever since that day, when I learned you had escaped, I have been obsessed with you and have had them search the city for your whereabouts."
“…”
"But Xiaoyu, you are really not good."
“…”
"You brought Her Highness the Princess and hid in this Buddhist temple. Do you know that this will worry me?"
When she heard him mention "Her Royal Highness the Princess", Ran Xiaoyu immediately got rid of her astonishment, widened her eyes and looked at him warily.
"What do you want?"
"What do I want?"
As Zhu Xuan spoke, he took a step forward and said gently to Ran Xiaoyu, "As long as you are willing to come out and bring Princess Xinping to Prince Ning's mansion, I will never make things difficult for you."
“…”
Ran Xiaoyu looked at him with a gloomy face.
She thought about it, then turned to look at the great monk Shikong and the young monk Mingxin beside her.
"you……"
The two men were completely stunned.
They had never imagined that Prince Ning would actually come to their Dabao Temple with a large army, and even more so that they could not imagine that Ran Xiaoyu, who lived with them day and night - the little girl she brought with her, would actually be Her Royal Highness the Princess!
Their identities are so noble.
However, the noble people brought disasters such as war.
Shi Kong said in some fear: "This, this——"
Mingxin widened his eyes and felt Xiao Xinping struggling and squirming in the cloak. He subconsciously reached out and patted her gently, his concern evident in his words.
Seeing this scene, Ran Xiaoyu was certain in her heart.
She turned to look at Zhu Xuan, who was smiling at her, and stiffly uttered two words: "Dream on!"
Upon hearing these two words, Zhu Xuan's brows immediately furrowed.
Behind him, Zhai Yun's face darkened as he angrily shouted, "Don't be ungrateful! Your Dabao Temple has been heavily surrounded by our troops. If you don't come out, expect to die!"
After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "Come on!"
Immediately, several soldiers standing closest to the gate rushed up. Ran Xiaoyu showed no fear and went up to them to fight directly. Although she was carrying Xiao Xiaoping on her back, her body was agile and she did not slow down at all. She shuttled through the crowd like a civet cat.
In just a few moves, he knocked those big men to the ground.
Ming Xin was even more stunned: "Wow!"
Although Ran Xiaoyu lived in the temple and lived with them day and night these days, no one knew that this girl with a baby face and a pretty face had such amazing skills.
However, no matter how amazing his skills were, facing so many people—
Mingxin shouted loudly: "Sister Xiaoyu, be careful!"
He saw that among the soldiers, some had raised their bows and arrows and aimed at Ran Xiaoyu.
Ran Xiaoyu had of course noticed this, and after knocking down those men, she immediately turned around and retreated. Zhu Xuan also saw those bows and arrows aimed at Ran Xiaoyu, and immediately shouted, "Stop!"
But halfway through his words, one of the soldiers loosened his grip and the arrow shot out with a whoosh!
Ran Xiaoyu turned around and kicked the temple door open.
The arrow hit the door with a bang.
Ran Xiaoyu shouted again: "Retreat quickly!"
Shi Kong was frightened and stepped back quickly when he heard her shouting. Ran Xiaoyu immediately rushed over and closed the other door.
Zhu Xuan's face flushed red, and he shouted, "Go in and catch her!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he added: "Don't hurt her!"
"yes!"
At the command, the soldiers immediately rushed forward and knocked open the gate of the quiet Buddhist place in two or three strokes. The monks in front were startled by the noise outside and came out to see: "What are you doing?"
Before he could finish his words, he was pinned to the ground by the soldiers.
They rushed inside following Ran Xiaoyu's figure.
Ran Xiaoyu didn't bother to explain to anyone at this time and ran all the way, but seeing several people running from both sides to block her, she gritted her teeth and rushed directly towards a big man.
The soldier was caught off guard and before he could react, he felt a black screen in front of his eyes.
Ran Xiaoyu stepped on his shoulders and jumped up with the agile figure of a civet cat, directly climbing onto the top of the wall.
The soldiers below were shocked by her move.
Ran Xiaoyu half-knelt down to steady herself, looked around, and her face suddenly turned pale.
As soon as I stood on the wall, I found that the entire Dabao Temple, including the outside of the wall, had been surrounded by these soldiers.
No matter which direction you run, there will be people there.
At this moment, the soldiers saw her climbing up the wall. Although Zhu Xuan told them not to hurt her, they didn't care about anything else in order to catch her. Suddenly, countless arrows flew towards her feet.
Ran Xiaoyu ran forward hurriedly.
The top of the wall was narrow and long, and covered with a lot of moss. She ran quickly on it with her little feet, but she almost slipped several times.
At this moment, several archers in front saw her coming and immediately drew their bows and strings. After a few clicks, the bricks on the wall under their feet were broken.
"ah--!"
Ran Xiaoyu let out a short cry of surprise and could only turn over and jump down again.
As soon as he landed, a group of soldiers rushed up from this side.
She was the only one fighting in the street with so many people, and she would definitely not end up well. Ran Xiaoyu gritted her teeth and quickly turned around to climb over another wall.
But just as she stood up, she suddenly heard a sharp sound.
Then he felt his ankle sink. He looked down and saw a whip suddenly swung from behind, wrapping around his foot like a poisonous snake.
It’s Zhu Xuan!
Ran Xiaoyu's heart sank. Before she had time to think about it, Zhu Xuan exerted force and pulled her down.
