Although the arrows were not shot towards them, a few arrows flew over and were blocked by Chen Li and Tian Qing.
The young man in brocade clothes on the other side was not in a good situation. More than half of his guards were killed or injured while trying to block arrows for him.
The boy shouted angrily, "Who sent you?"
No one answered, and the cold arrows continued to shoot into the house.
"Who ordered you to assassinate the Prince of Huainan? You are truly very bold."
The men in black still didn't react, but Pei Yu was somewhat tempted.
The Prince of Huainan!
The King of Huainan is the only king of a different surname in the Jiangnan region. His throne has been inherited from generation to generation and today is the third generation.
If the Prince of Huainan died here, Jiangnan would be in chaos, which would be beneficial to him, but if he was rescued, the benefits he would bring would be greater.
"Tianqing, Anliu, save people."
"yes."
The two men immediately broke out of the window, rushed into the heavy rain, and ran to the front to deal with the man in black who was shooting arrows.
Pei Yu wanted to do a favor for the King of Huainan, so he naturally had to step forward. He immediately drew the soft sword at his waist and went over to help them block the arrows.
Zhou Yuli hid behind the guards, and had to pay attention to the flying arrows from time to time. He regretted for the 108th time in his heart that he should not have gone out in anger this time, and he should not have thrown away the two secret guards sent by his father. Now it’s okay!
Seeing another guard falling in front of him and two arrows flying towards him, he quickly rolled and fell to the ground.
Although he dodged those two arrows, another one shot straight at his heart.
Father, mother, I will never be willful again. Woo woo woo, your son will die here today!
"Prince!"
When the guards nearby saw this scene, their hearts almost jumped out of their throats.
At this moment, Pei Yu shot a dart, cut off the arrow, and then swung his soft sword to block the arrow in front of him.
With the intervention of Tianqing and Anliu outside, the arrows stopped and the men in black surrounded them again.
A group of guards surrounded the young man and continued to fight. This time, with the help of Pei Yu and his servant, the man in black was quickly at a disadvantage.
After a cup of tea, all the blacks were wiped out, and only 10 of the twenty or so guards of the young man in brocade clothes remained.
If Pei Yu had not intervened, they would have suffered heavy casualties, and of course the situation is not much better now.
Chen Li saw through Wei Zian's purpose, and naturally realized that the young man's identity was not simple, but when she heard that he was the prince of Huainan, she was still a little shocked.
Although Chen Li didn't know where the King of Huainan's fiefdom was, it was no wonder that Wei Zian would help him given his noble status.
Two guards stepped forward and quickly helped his son up, "Master, are you hurt?"
After Zhou Yuli stood firm, he waved to the two guards, indicating that he was fine. Then he looked at Pei Yu with shining eyes: "Thank you for saving my life."
He had been in the circle of power and wealth since he was a child, so he naturally saw the outstanding temperament of Pei Yu, and thus confirmed that his identity was not simple.
But even if he was an ordinary person, since he saved himself, he was worthy of being treated as a guest of honor by Zhou Yuli.
Thinking this way, after expressing his gratitude, he immediately bowed to Pei Yu.
"It's just a matter of convenience. Thank you for being so polite, Your Highness."
Pei Yu had no intention of hiding his purpose. Even though the Prince of Huainan in front of him was still a little naive, the King of Huainan was a cunning man. Once these guards went back and told him, he would definitely guess his purpose.
In this way, there is no need to hide it. It is better to be open and leave a good impression on him.
Zhou Yuli smiled. This man actually knew his identity. Could it be that the guard let it slip during the fight just now?
"I wonder what this hero's name is?"
Pei Yu changed the subject of the words that were on the tip of his tongue and said, "Wei Zian."
"It turns out to be Brother Wei, next week Yuli."
Zhou Yuli had already changed his name to be more familiar, but his brain was already working frantically. There had never been any distinguished families with the surname Wei in other places, and there was only one family in the capital that fit the bill.
But his age doesn't seem to match that of Wei Zian in front of him, so there is another possibility.
He looked at the other group of people in the mountain temple. It seemed that this name was only used when walking outside.
His guards quickly dragged the corpse out of the mountain temple, and then brought in some water from the rain outside to remove the bloody smell on the ground.
Soon, the mountain temple returned to its previous tranquility. Pei Yu and Zhou Yuli chatted for a few more words, and finally said, "It's too late," and the conversation ended there.
The moment the battle ended, Chen Li asked everyone to get their things and rest in the back.
The rain outside the mountain god temple continued to fall lightly. Inside the temple, everyone fell asleep. The rain only stopped lightly when it was almost dawn.
After breakfast, the rain stopped and everyone packed up and started to set off.
Zhou Yuli was also leaving with his guards. Before leaving, he casually asked, "There's a city not far ahead. I wonder where Brother Wei is going?"
Pei Yu did not reply immediately, but looked at Chen Li. Chen Li nodded at him. Now that the weather has turned cold, the carriages are much emptier, so it is a good time to go into the city to buy some supplies.
The most important thing is that this time I can take advantage of the prince's influence and enter the city smoothly.
"Then I'll trouble you, Master Zhou."
Zhou Yuli nodded with a smile, and glanced at Chen Li before getting on the carriage. He didn't expect to meet such a beautiful girl here. She had delicate and small facial features, but her skin was a little dark. If it was whiter, she would look better.
Sure enough, this mountain temple was very close to the city. After the carriage had been driving for about quarter of an hour, the outline of the city could be seen.
As soon as Zhou Yuli's carriage arrived at the city gate, it was quickly allowed to pass. The guard beside him pointed at the carriage behind and said a few words to the soldiers guarding the city. Chen Li and his friends successfully entered the city without even paying the entrance fee.
After entering the city, Zhou Yuli separated from them. Chen Li and his group went to find an inn to temporarily store their carriage and luggage, and then went their separate ways to buy what they needed.
It was morning now, and they had walked quite a distance into the city. Chen Li discovered that although there were no signs of flooding in the city, there were not many pedestrians on the streets, and even many shops were closed.
Chen Li took Lin Cuicui to several stores and bought a lot of cold-relieving medicines and ingredients, even a lot of ginger.
Now that the weather was cold, they bought several pounds of meat and some vegetables. Finally, when the carriage passed by a clothing store, Lin Cuicui gritted her teeth and went in to buy a set of cotton clothes for each of them.
The others each got one set. I bought three cotton coats for Chen Li alone, and two for Xu Taohua, as well as some soft fabrics and cotton.
