Chapter 157 The Little Queen Whose Wife Was Taken Away by the King (24)
Under Qingwu's frightened gaze, a burst of rapid horse hooves sounds suddenly rang out.
Qingwu's heart fell.
He was wearing shiny silver armor that gleamed coldly in the sunlight, and his scarlet cloak rustled in the wind.
Against the backlight, it looks extraordinary and imposing.
In the backlight, this person appeared even more heroic and extraordinary, emitting an incomparable powerful aura and majesty.
His face was chiseled, his sword-like eyebrows slanted into his temples, he looked very heroic, his eyes were as sharp as cold stars, his deep gaze seemed to be able to see through everything, even just a glance at him could make people feel chilled and awe-inspiring without even being angry.
Under his high nose bridge, his thin lips were tightly pursed. At this moment, his brows were furrowed, and there was even a hint of undisguised panic in his eyes.
Huo Tingye simply couldn't recall the scene he had just witnessed. God knows he saw the delicate Qingwu facing the ferocious robbers -
He was almost mentally broken.
What followed was anger!
How could anyone dare!
And her so-called fiancé is actually hiding behind her like a coward?!
Is this still a man?!
In a rage, Huo Tingye drew out the long sword from his waist without hesitation. Although the sword had not yet been unsheathed, the movements of his hands were as swift as the wind and as sharp as lightning.
He flashed and moved among the robbers like a ghost, and every time he swung his sword, it was with the force of thunder.
In just a few moments, those arrogant robbers were beaten into a mess.
At the same time, the army that arrived in time behind them quickly took action and captured the robbers who had been beaten to death by Huo Tingye.
Some soldiers who were very close to Huo Tingye carefully glanced at their general.
General Huo, who was usually calm and composed, was trying hard to suppress the rage burning in his heart, but his slightly trembling hands and tense facial muscles showed that he was on the verge of a rage.
This...what happened to the general?
Is it dissatisfaction with the public security in the capital?
In broad daylight, someone actually dared to cause trouble in the street...
But, as long as the problem is solved, it's enough! But why is the general so angry now? It's as if his wife was almost molested...
The soldier glanced cautiously and covertly at the veiled woman who looked so petite and fragile under the horse.
She was staring blankly at their majestic general.
The general's tall and broad back was like an indestructible fortress, as if it could completely envelop the woman.
The woman's eyes were clear and fixed on their general.
It's like a story in a novel about a hero saving a beautiful girl.
What was strange was that not far behind the woman, a limp and disheveled young man lay on the ground. However, judging by his expression and movements, he seemed to have a close relationship with the woman...
"Go report to His Majesty first and tell him I'll be back shortly. Remember to take care of everything."
The soldiers suddenly heard the general's low, cold voice commanding: "Go to His Majesty first and report. I will be there shortly. Remember to handle all matters properly."
There was an inexplicable solemnity in his voice, as if he had made up his mind.
Huo Tingye regretted it.
He only thought about external threats, but ignored the fact that within the seemingly calm capital, there were also undercurrents and many unstable factors.
There are too many people who are blind.
Before leaving, he had also considered sending people to guard Qingwu in secret, but after all, they had no reason to do so, and if they were discovered, it would be bad for Qingwu's reputation.
He was also afraid that Qingwu would find out and think that he was secretly spying on them, and thus think that he had ulterior motives and bad intentions.
Moreover, Qingwu was, after all, the daughter of a wealthy marquis, and her so-called fiancé, even if he could not be considered a talented person, was at least a prince.
In this capital city, under the feet of the emperor - there shouldn't be any big problems.
We'll see everything after he returns triumphantly...
But who would have thought that this fiancé...
Oh, no, it won’t be long before An Huaiyuan can no longer bear the title of “fiancé”.
Thinking of this, Huo Tingye couldn't help but sneer, and his eyes swept coldly over An Huaiyuan, who was now collapsed on the ground in a miserable state, his eyes full of contempt and disdain.
After just a quick glance, he felt as if he had seen something dirty and didn't want to look at it any longer.
He wanted to protect Qingwu under his wings with full justification.
He wants to marry Qingwu.
Huo Tingye looked at Qingwu.
The heat in his eyes seemed to melt Qingwu.
Qing Wu naturally noticed this as well. The undisguised strong desire in the man's eyes made her feel fear involuntarily.
That feeling is like facing a bottomless dark abyss. If you fall into it without carefulness, you will never be able to escape.
Qingwu subconsciously wanted to divert her gaze and avoid that wolf-like gaze.
But Huo Tingye didn't allow her to escape anymore.
At this time, those well-trained soldiers had already quietly retreated, and the people watching around were full of awe for this god of war with great military achievements, and consciously kept a certain safe distance from them.
Just like that, in the blink of an eye, only Huo Tingye, Qing Wu, and An Huaiyuan who was still slumped on the ground were left in the alley.
Huo Tingye dismounted swiftly and walked slowly towards Qingwu with steady and powerful steps.
"Break off the engagement with him."
"Marry me."
"He's useless and doesn't deserve you."
Qingwu was stunned.
An Huaiyuan on the ground struggled desperately to stand up, but his body seemed to be held down by an invisible force and he could not move.
The sword he carried with him was slightly unsheathed, and a sharp light flashed on the sword body, as if it contained an endless sense of sharpness.
Even though only a little bit was exposed, one could still feel the bloody murderous aura coming from the vast army.
I don’t know how many people Huo Tingye thought deserved to die were killed with this sword.
The unstoppable and fierce sword energy is a silent threat.
An Huaiyuan, who had originally tried to resist, was so frightened after being exposed to this terrifying aura that his face turned pale and his whole body trembled.
He opened his mouth wide, but no sound came out of his throat. He could only stare blankly at the scene in front of him, not daring to even breathe.
Huo Tingye sneered at this coward.
Huo Tingye looked at Qingwu——
