"in front of!"
Nie You heard the sound of fighting from afar and chased after them on horseback.
The guard who had blocked the arrow had already breathed his last. Upon seeing the body, Nie You frowned, "There's an assassin! Surround the hunting grounds and search thoroughly!"
The news of the prince's assassination spread like wildfire, and all the female members of the family were sent home.
Yu Yuanbai was originally entangled with the little Princess Daqu and couldn't get away. When he heard that the prince had disappeared with a member of the Yu family army, he was completely panicked.
Nie You and Yu Yuanbai each led their own men to search. They both knew that whoever could find the prince would be able to atone for his sins. As for the other one, he would naturally be held accountable by the emperor.
However, the royal hunting grounds were vast, encompassing mountains, forests, and rivers, making them difficult to find. They searched day and night, but the prince seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth, and they could not find him.
...
The moon in the mountains is exceptionally bright, and the cold moonlight seems to have no temperature at all.
"A-choo."
Su Man sneezed loudly and stood up from the gravel ground, her whole body soaked. She looked around and found the prince unconscious in the water.
"Fuck."
Su Man quickly turned him over. The short arrow had pierced his shoulder and was just a little off-center from his heart. It was extremely dangerous. She patted the prince's precious face and said, "Wake up."
I took pictures for a long time but he didn't respond.
Su Man observed for a moment and concluded that they must have fallen into the valley and been swept here by the underground river. They were now sandwiched between two large mountains, with only a sliver of sky visible when they looked up.
It seems like a dead end?
“Cough cough cough…”
Su Man turned around and saw that the prince had woken up at some point. He looked at her with a wary look in his eyes, "You are a woman? Who are you?"
Oh no, the water just washed away all the disguise on her face, and she looked like a beautiful girl.
Between telling the truth and lying, she chose the latter and said with a crazy look on her face, "I am a soldier of the Yu family. I admire General Yu, so I disguised myself as a woman and sneaked into the barracks."
Moonlight poured down from the cracks in the stone wall. At this moment, Su Man's wet hair was draped over her shoulders. The armor on her body had long disappeared, leaving only the bright red robe underneath tightly attached to her body.
The prince looked at her quietly for a moment and said, "Help me up."
Seeing that he stopped asking questions, Su Man breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Yu Yuanbaihua was well-known, and the prince should believe it.
Su Man avoided the wound and carefully helped him up. But as soon as the prince stood up, he fell back to the ground. She was wearing armor when she fell and was not injured. But the prince was not so lucky. He was not only shot by an arrow, but also broke his leg.
Su Man dragged and pulled the prince to the edge of the stone wall and put him down.
Seeing that he couldn't walk far like this, what should he do? Su Man was worried. Although Nie You was a gigolo, he was still a big man and could carry the prince on his back, but she couldn't do that.
The prince looked at Su Man with a murmur in his eyes, wondering what she was planning. He was seriously injured now, and if she left him...
"What's your name?" the prince asked suddenly.
She definitely couldn't tell her real name, so Su Man casually said, "Movie Queen Su."
The prince frowned. What kind of name is this? But at this moment, he couldn't offend Su Man and could only say against his will, "It's a good name."
Silence returned between the two.
After a while, the prince said again, "It is fate that we are in trouble today. If I can escape, I will give you to Yuan Bai as a concubine."
Su Man now understood what the prince meant. It turned out that he was hinting to her in various ways, "I am a prince. If you rescue me, the benefits will be great." She deliberately said, "Actually, I no longer like General Yu."
The prince paused, "Why?"
Su Man said seriously, "Because he is too fickle."
“.......”
If she gave other reasons, the prince could explain it for her, but as for her being fickle, the prince felt that the explanation was too pale.
After a moment of silence, the prince spoke again.
"So, what do you think of this prince?"
Su Man almost couldn't hold it in. This prince was so funny. She moved closer to the prince, looked at his face pretentiously, and said with satisfaction, "The prince is a rare talent, with a face like Pan An. Not bad, not bad."
The prince seemed relieved. "If we can be saved, I will marry you as my concubine."
Su Man's heart moved. She saved the prince only to change the fate of the Yu family and make it prosperous. But if the prince agreed to marry her, another mission would be accomplished. However...
"Why didn't the prince ask me if I was ready to marry?"
The prince was surprised, "You are already married, and you are still following Yuan Bai?"
Su Man approached the prince frivolously, "So what?"
The prince held his breath inexplicably at a distance so close that he could hear her breathing. But the next second, Su Man stepped back and laughed heartily, "Prince, how can you be the emperor if you are so easy to fool?"
A blush crept up the prince's neck. He said with a strong expression, "How dare you."
Su Man looked up and said, "Okay, I'm just worried that the prince will be too nervous. I was just kidding. You can't move easily, so I'll find someone to rescue you."
The prince moved his lips but said nothing. He was in dire straits and could only pin his hopes of survival on her.
Su Man took off the water bottle from her waist and said, "This is for you. I'll be back soon."
The prince clenched the kettle and watched Su Man's figure disappear into the darkness.
-
The royal hunting grounds were pitch black late at night, with the occasional cries of wild beasts in the mountains making people shudder.
Holding a torch, Yu Yuanbai walked without stopping. If he could ride a horse, he would ride it; if he couldn't, he would dismount and walk, refusing to stop for even a moment.
