Chapter 73: This King is Not a Bad Person, Princess, Don’t Be Afraid of Him
The assassins were quickly cleared out. When Su Wanyan helped Ji Xiaohan to lift the curtain of the carriage, there was not even a corpse left outside. The guards knelt down when they saw Ji Xiaohan wake up, "Subordinates pay their respects to the prince!"
Even Rong Mama and Shaoyao, led by He Bo, hurried over to kneel and greet the prince. "This old servant/this servant greets the prince."
Ji Xiaohan first glanced around the dense forest they were in, and then he called out softly, "Everyone, get up. Hebo and Xiaowu will stay and serve, and everyone else can go down and rest."
"yes!"
He Bo and Xiao Wu hurriedly stood beside the carriage, waiting for Ji Xiaohan's instructions.
"The princess told me that everyone in Prince Xiao's palace was exiled to Quanzhou. Have you made arrangements early?" In front of Su Wanyan, Ji Xiaohan had to ask again even though he knew the answer.
He Bo bowed and replied, "In reply to your Highness's words, this old servant has lived up to your trust. The news from the palace was delivered earlier than the imperial edict. The people in the palace and all the secret guards in the secret guard camp have made arrangements in advance."
Xiao Wu also bowed and replied, "Your Highness, although there have been accidents and assassinations during the past two days of exile, all the secret guards in our secret guard camp are currently unharmed. I will do my utmost to escort the master and the princess to Quanzhou safely."
Ji Xiaohan glanced at Su Wanyan's expression without revealing her life or death. Seeing her eyes light up when she heard that the secret guards were not damaged, he knew that she was worried that they would be like in their previous life, with all the secret guards lost, and she and he would be in crisis again. He deliberately asked these questions to He Bo and Xiao Wu so that his little princess could feel more at ease.
Su Wanyan didn't expect that Ji Xiaohan had such good luck in this life. The secret guards hadn't been injured yet. Could it be because of the butterfly effect caused by the accidental book traveler like her?
Wouldn't the assassinations they encountered along the way be as difficult as they were in the original owner's previous life?
"What are you thinking about?" Su Wanyan was lost in her own memories and did not notice that He Bo and Xiao Wu had left at some point. Ji Xiaohan shook the hand holding the little princess and asked in a low voice.
Su Wanyan blinked, "Where are Hebo and Xiaowu?"
Ji Xiaohan: "Let them rest. We have to travel tomorrow morning. There will be no more assassination attempts tonight. You should get some sleep. I will accompany you."
Su Wanyan really couldn't get used to Ji Xiaohan's tone of an old married couple. She just chuckled and said, "Okay, then I'll go to sleep first."
As he said that, he pulled a quilt and buried himself in it.
Help! How could this man be so gentle to Su Wanyan, whom he just met?
Ji Xiaohan coughed lightly a few times and waited for a while before Su Wanyan pulled the quilt aside. He reached out and helped her pull it open a little, revealing her blushing little face. "Be careful not to suffocate. Besides, I'm not a bad person, don't be afraid of me, Princess."
"..." Su Wanyan was really embarrassed. Who said that men and women in ancient times were very conservative? She thought that what she said to Ji Xiaohan before was already outrageous enough, but she didn't expect that Ji Xiaohan's attitude towards her was even more wrong.
How could Su Wanyan sleep in such an ambiguous atmosphere?
After staying in the quilt for a long time, she still didn't feel sleepy at all. She simply sat up and faced the man who was looking at her, "Ji Xiaohan, I can't sleep if you look at me like this."
All the sleepyheads are gone.
A smile appeared at the corner of Ji Xiaohan's lips. The man was handsome to begin with, and he smiled gently at Su Wanyan. How could Su Wanyan resist? Ji Xiaohan's gentle smile directly dealt a sweet blow to Su Wanyan's heart.
Why does it matter if a man has a cool and handsome face?
