"I'm fine. Just give me a simple bandage first. They might come back later." Han Xiao gestured to Chuyi to apply medicine on him.
Chuyi frowned and said, "Sir, please don't try to show off. If you still want this arm, then listen to me and don't move. You stay here, and I'll go outside with Shiwu."
Lu Cheng nodded in agreement, but Han Xiao's performance just now was really beyond his expectations.
If Han Xiao had not seriously injured Hu Yansui, their casualties would probably have been even greater.
I just don’t know what’s going on with the Third Prince. I hope General Huo can act faster.
"Yes, Han Xiao, just listen to Chuyi and take a rest first."
Lu Cheng didn't know how to persuade others, so he could only speak dryly.
Han Xiao shook his head and glanced at the closed door. How could he feel at ease when the young master was inside?
Seeing Han Xiao so stubborn, Lu Cheng scratched his hair, not knowing whether he should tell Han Xiao the truth.
But if I tell him now, I'm afraid he will get suspicious. If I don't tell him, he's really afraid that Han Xiao will lose his life.
Seeing that Lu Cheng was hesitant to speak, Han Xiao couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Lu, is there anything you're trying to hide?"
After all, Lu Cheng wasn't the shrewd Lu Ming. After thinking for a while, he hesitantly said, "Don't worry. Today's situation was within the expectations of His Majesty and the Third Prince. The palace won't be lost, so you can rest assured."
Han Xiao sat up immediately after hearing this: "Uncle Lu, are you telling the truth?"
Lu Cheng nodded awkwardly, but the reinforcements were still on the way and no one knew when they would arrive.
However, he believed that the Second Prince would definitely not dare to attack His Majesty and the Third Prince. His Majesty and the Black Scale Guards had not taken action. If he was really forced into a desperate situation, the Emperor would have sent the little prince out long ago.
"The Third Prince didn't hide it from you on purpose." Lu Cheng explained immediately, worried that Han Xiao would be dissatisfied with the Third Prince.
Han Xiao didn't care whether the third prince was hiding something from him or not. It would be great as long as he still had a trump card.
Moreover, he did not blame the Third Prince for hiding it from him. After all, he had no involvement in the court and could not influence the Third Prince's opinion. The Third Prince and the Emperor must have their reasons for doing so.
What Han Xiao didn't know was that the emperor didn't expect the second prince to take action so early, catching them off guard, so that now they can only hold on with difficulty.
Fortunately, Huo Cheng was already on his way, and General Li also wanted to reduce the punishment of the Fifth Prince because he had taken troops out of the palace without permission, and was now looking for the Fifth Prince to come back.
"It doesn't matter, as long as His Majesty and the Third Prince have a plan." Han Xiao now breathed a sigh of relief. His spirit relaxed, and fatigue followed like a tide. Seeing this, Lu Cheng quickly asked Chuyi to open the door and he helped Han Xiao back to the room to rest.
Knowing that reinforcements would arrive at the palace soon, Han Xiao stopped trying to be tough, and even Chuyi's expression became a little more relaxed.
Chuyi wanted Lu Cheng to put Han Xiao in the inner room, but Han Xiao shook his head. He was soaked all over, so he decided to stay in the living room for a while.
Chuyi couldn't persuade Han Xiao, so he could only let him rest in the living room first. After Lu Rong put Han Xiao down, he didn't dare to stay for long. He still had to guard outside to prevent the Northern Di army from making a counterattack.
After Chuyi carefully bandaged Han Xiao's wound, he also stood guard outside the door with his weapon.
Fifteen scratched his hair and walked out, leaving Han Xiao alone in the living room.
Han Xiao thought for a while and decided to go in to see the young master. When he walked into the room, he saw Liu Anlan looking out the window with tears in his eyes.
Seeing Han Xiao coming in, she quickly wiped away her tears and asked, "Han Xiao, what's wrong with you..."
Han Xiao shook his head: "It's okay..."
Seeing Liu Anlan's eyes already red from crying, Han Xiao decided to repeat what Lu Cheng had just said to Liu Anlan.
"Don't worry for now, someone from Qingyun will protect him." Han Xiao didn't want to say too much about other things.
Liu Anlan didn't know if he had heard it or not, he just nodded woodenly: "Okay, I understand, then I'll go back first..."
"No need, you stay and accompany Ruanruan first, I have to go out later." Han Xiao was still worried until he saw the result.
Liu Anlan then sat back down. Han Xiao walked to the bed and covered the young master with the quilt. He watched for a while before walking out.
The heavy rain outside had not stopped, and the second prince was obviously getting anxious. He wanted to ascend the throne legitimately, so he could not just get rid of the emperor.
But the longer he delayed, the more he felt something was wrong, but after thinking about it carefully, he still didn't know what was wrong.
Looking at Chu Jinglin's calm expression, the second prince finally couldn't bear it anymore and discussed with Old Mo about launching a violent attack.
Anyway, there are only a few thousand guards left in the palace, and they have an absolute advantage. Mr. Mo also thinks so. Now the two of them hit it off and decided to launch a strong attack immediately.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Huo Xinyan quickly asked someone to protect Chu Jinglin behind him, and looked at the second prince in the Beidi army with a serious face.
These people can't hold on for much longer, my father should be here by now.
At the moment when the second prince gave the order to attack, chaos suddenly broke out in the rear of Beidi.
First, someone carried Hu Yansui back. Looking at the arrow on Hu Yansui's chest, Chu Jinglin's face changed drastically.
I just missed Hu Yansui, and I didn’t expect that he would go to find Han Xiao.
But judging from their appearance, they didn't seem to have gained anything, and Hu Yansui was even seriously injured.
The Second Prince and Old Mo were so angry when they saw the dying Hu Yansui that they almost fainted. They didn't expect Hu Yansui to be so incompetent. Not only did he secretly go to cause trouble for Han Xiao, but he also came back in such a state.
The Second Prince once doubted his own judgment. How could he have agreed to such a fool as the Second Prince in the first place?
Mo Lao's face was not looking good either, because Hu Yansui was seriously injured, which affected the morale of Beidi to a certain extent. Huo Xinyan was happy to see this.
I don’t know which fierce man actually injured Hu Yansui.
Even if Mo Lao and the Second Prince were reluctant, they had to have Hu Yansui carried to a safe place to heal his wounds.
Huo Xinyan and Chu Jinglin looked at each other and decided not to miss this opportunity and set out to enter the palace at the same time.
The war was about to break out, and many Beidi people became the souls under Huo Xinyan's gun before they could react.
The second prince was anxious and angry, so he could only take Mr. Mo to hide in a safe place. Seeing Huo Xinyan and Chu Jinglin moving around in the crowd with ease, the second prince almost gritted his teeth.
When the palace guards saw how brave their general and the third prince were, they immediately became eager to fight and roared as they chopped off the enemy's heads.
Just when Mr. Mo and Hu Yansui had just found the military doctor, they heard chaos again in the rear.
There was not only chaos, but also a deafening sound of horse hooves.
