But Xuanyuan Che was not afraid of them at all. He had a team of guards following him and secret guards protecting him closely, so he would not be hurt.
However, he wanted to obtain evidence of Ping An's rebellion, so he could not act rashly. Only by obtaining evidence of his rebellion would those people stop persuading him to adopt King Ping's son.
He did not immediately break up with them, but continued to deal with them: "Let me go, and I can satisfy you with whatever you want."
The thief ignored him and snorted coldly: "You dog emperor, I want your dog life."
After saying that, he stopped talking and raised his sword and slashed straight at the carriage.
But he didn't know what material Xuanyuan's carriage was made of. It was extremely hard and could not be opened from the outside. He chopped at it with a long knife for a long time, cursing at the beginning and panting later, but the carriage hardly moved.
"Brothers, go ahead."
Dozens of people rushed up together, shaking wildly. The horse was frightened and ran for its life.
The carriage was bumpy, and Xuanyuan Che held Tang Wan's head tightly. "Don't be afraid, I'll hold you in my arms later. Hold me tight, and I'll protect you."
"Okay, I believe in Your Majesty."
Xuanyuan Che opened the side door and jumped out of it holding her. The two rolled on the ground several times. He protected Tang Wan, so Tang Wan was not seriously injured.
He was injured in the back and arms by some sharp gravel on the ground.
The two of them ran all the way towards the woods. A fishy-sweet smell rose in Tang Wan's throat. Perhaps she ran too fast, and the air filled her lungs, choking her and making her cough repeatedly.
Xuanyuan Che took her and hid in a cave.
Tang Wan looked at the wounds on his body, her face showing heartache: "A Che, does it hurt a lot..."
Xuanyuan Che smiled at her and said, "It's just a minor injury. Back when I was fighting, an enemy soldier stabbed me in the chest with a sword. The military doctor said that if the sword had deviated a few inches, I would have lost my life."
"Isn't it okay for me to feel sad?" She grumbled, looking at him disapprovingly.
Xuanyuan Che shut up. He pulled Tang Wan over, looked around, and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she only had some minor scratches on her body.
"It's all my fault. If I had protected you a little, you wouldn't have been injured so badly..."
"How can I blame you for this? You're a weak woman, and it's hard for you to protect yourself, let alone me. Besides, since ancient times, husbands have always protected their wives. How can a wife protect her husband in return?"
Tang Wan was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted, tore off her clothes and bandaged his wound.
After all, continuous bleeding will make people exhausted.
Xuanyuan Che looked at her, his brows softening a little.
"Will they come after us?"
Xuanyuan Che was not sure how to answer this question. In fact, King Ping's men would be able to find them very quickly. After all, there was only one place where they were hiding, so it would be easy to find them.
But looking at the woman in front of him, he didn't want her to be so frightened, so he said, "No, don't be afraid."
"I'm not afraid." Surprisingly, she was very calm. "I'm just worried that they will catch up and hurt Your Majesty."
"Don't be afraid. After all, I have commanded three armies before. How could I be afraid of them?" Xuanyuan Che held her slightly cold little hand and silently comforted her.
About a cup of tea later, the group of people caught up with her. Xuanyuan Che protected her behind him, drew his sword, and looked at them with cold eyes.
The man in the lead wore a black mask on his face, with only his eyes exposed. Those eyes were triangular and looked particularly ferocious.
"Xuanyuan Che, today is the day you die."
There were a group of people holding knives and swords, but there were no archers. Xuanyuan Che couldn't help but feel a little relaxed, probably because they had used up all the archers when shooting at the carriage before.
Xuanyuan Che said expressionlessly: "It's still uncertain who will die."
Xuanyuan Che was indeed not bragging. He was still injured and was carrying her with him, but even so, he could still fight ten people alone and not be at a disadvantage at all.
Several men in black were injured to varying degrees, but none of them even touched the corner of his clothes.
The leading black-clad man saw Tang Wan and hurriedly said, "Attack the woman next to Xuanyuan Che."
The group of people began to attack her, but Xuanyuan Che protected her very well, and those people could not get close to him.
After fighting for about half an hour, Xuanyuan Che gradually became exhausted, but the situation on the other side was not much better. Some were dead, some were injured, and only seven or eight were left.
Just when Tang Wan thought that Xuanyuan Che should be able to hold on until reinforcements arrived, she saw a man not far away with a bow and arrow, aiming at Xuanyuan Che's chest.
He can't die, otherwise all the suffering he has endured will be in vain.
Her pupils suddenly dilated, and she found the strength to block Xuanyuan Che: "Ache, be careful!"
"Puff." The arrow pierced her chest, and Tang Wan suddenly felt a sharp pain. She couldn't help vomiting blood. She lost all her strength. She only had time to ask Xiaobai to block her pain before she fell straight backwards.
Warm blood splashed onto Xuanyuan Che's face. The woman who was chatting and laughing with him just now lost focus in her eyes and fell to the ground with the back of her head hitting the ground.
Xuanyuan Che was stunned for a moment and almost couldn't hold the sword.
He didn't remember how he killed the person later, he only remembered that there was a lot of blood all over the ground.
When everyone found him, he was half-kneeling on the ground, stroking Tang Wan's body again and again.
Tang Wan lay in his arms, quiet as if she was asleep.
Xuanyuan Che didn't dare to reach out to test her breathing. Seeing the reinforcements coming, he captured the leader alive and rode at full speed with Tang Wan back to the capital.
