Duan Zihao said to Zhao Min: "This is a rare opportunity. I wonder what Your Majesty's plans are?"
Zhao Min smiled and said: "Plan? As you said, this opportunity is rare. Since Zhang Wuji is eager to join in the fun, how can I let him down?"
…
It is true that Zhao Min retreated, and she stayed here just to cover the retreat of the army.
But Zhang Wuji had to come and see the excitement of Zhao Min's retreat.
Hundreds of archers were lying in ambush on the route that Zhang Wuji had to take in pursuit.
But just when Zhang Wuji was about to fall into Zhao Min's ambush, he suddenly tightened the reins of his warhorse.
Zhou Zhiruo on the side asked: "Is there an ambush?"
Zhang Wuji nodded: "It's hard to say whether it's an ambush or not, I just felt a hint of murderous intent."
Zhao Min, who was far away, felt a tightness in her heart at first, but in an instant, she felt relieved.
Zhao Min said to herself, "I knew it, I knew it wouldn't be that easy."
Then, Zhao Min took a large bow from the soldier beside her.
Seeing this, Duan Zihao also pulled a large bow and stretched it like a full moon.
Zhao Min said softly: "Everyone get ready, our target is only Zhang Wuji."
…
On the other side, one of the guards said to Zhang Wuji: "Your Majesty, I will go and explore the way first."
Then, the man took the lead and galloped away.
The man galloped on his warhorse while drawing his bow and arrows. Feathered arrows shot out in all directions like lightning.
Zhao Min, who was hiding in the dark, said: "Damn, I didn't expect Zhang Wuji to be so cautious."
Without Zhao Min's order, the soldiers under her command did not dare to act on their own.
They all let the man from Zhang Wuji's guards rush past them.
…
A moment later, the man returned to Zhang Wuji's side.
Zhang Wuji asked: "Have you found anything?"
The man said: "Your Majesty, there may be an ambush ahead."
"It was so quiet that I didn't even see a rabbit. There must be something fishy going on."
Zhang Wuji smiled and said: "Your point of view does make some sense. When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong."
Then, Zhang Wuji shouted loudly: "Miss Zhao, you left without saying goodbye like this. You really don't consider me as your friend."
Zhao Min in the distance smiled bitterly: "Damn it, I knew that Zhang Wuji's life would not be so easy to take."
Suddenly, the big bow in Zhao Min's hand was pulled to an arc that was almost about to break.
A feather arrow, like a bolt of thunder shot from a bow, rushed away.
In an instant, the Taibai sword at Zhang Wuji's waist was unsheathed.
The speed was so fast that even Zhou Zhiruo and Yu Fei had no time to react.
Immediately afterwards, a string of sparks flashed before everyone's eyes.
The force of this arrow was so great that even someone as skilled as Zhang Wuji was knocked off his horse.
But all this is not over yet.
Another feather arrow came rushing towards us like thunder.
Yu Fei only felt a flash of white light in the distance.
She subconsciously threw the scimitar in her hand away.
Another string of sparks flashed by.
This arrow was shot by Duan Zihao, but unfortunately, it still did not hurt Zhang Wuji at all.
At this moment, Zhou Zhiruo shouted loudly: "Soldiers, retreat quickly."
Zhou Zhiruo had just finished saying this when hundreds of arrows poured down.
Fortunately, Zhang Wuji and his group had made some preparations. In addition, not everyone had the same level of cultivation as Zhao Min and Duan Zihao.
Therefore, Zhang Wuji and his group did not suffer any harm.
Duan Zihao said to Zhao Min: "Your Majesty, should we charge forward?"
Zhao Min shook her head: "Forget it. We can't catch him even if we kill them. Even if we can kill a few of his guards, it will be of no use."
Duan Zihao could only sigh helplessly: "What a pity, what a pity for such a good opportunity."
Zhao Min smiled and said: "General Duan, please be more open-minded. As you said before, the sky is on Zhang Wuji's side. It's not surprising that we can't kill him."
…
Zhang Wuji and his group retreated several dozen feet before they were able to gain a firm foothold.
Zhou Zhiruo asked with some concern: "Are you okay?"
Zhang Wuji said: "It's okay, I just didn't expect that Zhao Min would play such a boring thing again."
Just when Zhang Wuji was feeling a little annoyed.
A clear and sweet voice reached his ears.
"Mr. Zhang, it was just a misunderstanding just now. I hope you are not hurt."
Zhang Wuji shouted in the direction of the voice: "Miss Zhao, I know this must be a misunderstanding, but I just hope that when I do the same thing to you, you can also believe that it is a misunderstanding."
Zhao Min smiled and said: "Of course, just treat me the way I treat you."
"I just hope that, considering that we have had a few drinks together, you can leave me an intact body when you have this misunderstanding about me."
…
Zhao Min laughed a few times and then turned and left.
Yu Fei asked Zhang Wuji: "Master, should we continue to chase?"
Zhang Wuji smiled and said: "Let's not chase her anymore. It seems that Zhao Min has really retreated."
"If we continue chasing, I'm afraid we will encounter an ambush. God, it's impossible for him to be on our side every time."
Zhou Zhiruo also quickly said: "It is true that we can't chase her anymore."
"Let Yang Xiao, Zhang Dingbian and others do this kind of work. You are the emperor of the Ming Empire. It is better for you to avoid doing this kind of things yourself in the future."
Yu Fei also quickly said: "That's right, Sister Zhou, among all of us sisters, I'm afraid you are the only one who can control the young master."
"You have to pay more attention to him in the future."
…
When Zhang Wuji and his companions returned to Jinyang, the place was already bustling with the sounds of gongs and drums.
Just when Zhang Wuji was wondering what had happened, Yang Xiao walked up to him and said.
"Your Majesty, the news of Zhao Min's withdrawal has spread throughout the streets and alleys."
"The people are all praising your wisdom and bravery."
Everyone likes to hear flattery, and Zhang Wuji is no exception.
He said happily: "Zhao Min's retreat was the result of the soldiers' bravery in killing the enemy. I, Zhang Wuji, have not done anything worthy of praise."
…
After sending Yang Xiao away, Zhang Wuji burst into laughter.
Zhou Zhiruo rolled her eyes at him and said, "I really don't like the way you act like a shrewd villain. You don't have the air of an emperor at all."
Zhang Wuji naturally didn't care about Zhou Zhiruo's words, but Yu Fei was different.
She said to Zhou Zhiruo: "Sister Zhou, what you said is not right. What do you mean by a villain succeeding? The young master is already the emperor. If he is a villain, then everyone in the world will become a villain."
"Sister Zhou, don't blame me for not reminding you that you can't take advantage of the fact that you and the young master have shared hardships and become arrogant."
