Ignoring the teacher, Yuan Yao jumped down from the desk: "Second Prince, Feng Xun, come with me."
Her voice was soft and gentle, yet it left no room for argument.
Jiang Chengyan was about to speak when Feng Xun followed, saying, "Princess, let me carry you."
Yuan Yao knew that her legs were short and that if she walked too slowly, she would slow everyone down, so she nodded.
At that moment, Jiang Chengyan, ahead of Feng Xun, picked up Yuan Yao and ran, shouting, "Feng Xun, don't lose her!"
The group quickly passed the teacher and left the school.
The teacher had no choice but to lead the remaining group of wailing little rascals to find a place to hide.
Upon leaving the school, Yuan Yao asked, "Where is the tallest building in the National Academy?"
Jiang Chengyan thought for a moment and replied, "The tower is in the east courtyard."
So the three of them hurriedly ran towards the east courtyard.
Along the way, they encountered many fleeing people.
Some people had their sleeves gone, their faces covered in blood, and others had their faces smeared with ash, crying loudly, not knowing how they escaped.
Jiang Chengyan was not very old, and after carrying Yuan Yao for a while, he was panting heavily.
Seeing this, Yuan Yao decisively made him put her down, walked to a less conspicuous corner, and asked, "Canfeng, are you there?"
"Yes," Canfeng replied, but did not show himself.
Yuan Yao said, "Canfeng, go and take Xie Zhi and Lin Xuan to the tower in the East Courtyard. I'll go ahead and wait for you there."
Although the two children knew martial arts, they were still young and could not possibly stop the rebel army that had killed countless people.
They ran out to protect her and her classmates; they couldn't let anything happen to them.
“No,” Canfeng said. “This subordinate cannot leave the princess.”
"Lingering Wind!"
Yuan Yao looked up at the smoke rising outside the high red wall and said, "Go and bring Xie Zhi and Lin Xuan back. This is the first order I'm giving you."
Remnant Wind: "..."
A moment later, Canfeng said, "Your subordinate will go and return quickly. Princess, please be careful."
Once Yuan Yao had figured out that Canfeng had left, she walked back to Jiang Chengyan and Feng Xun and said, "Let's go up to the tower."
The tower of the National Academy is extremely tall.
Climbing the tower, one can overlook the capital city.
The three men bypassed the rebels and climbed for quite a while before finally reaching the top of the tower.
Jiang Chengyan, panting, said with a sullen face, "The capital city... seems very quiet, there's no major commotion."
Yuan Yao was short, and the fence was taller than her, so she held onto the edge of the fence and tried her best to stand on tiptoe.
Upon inspection, it was found that, as expected, apart from the chaos at the National Academy, the capital city seemed to be largely unaffected.
That's very strange.
Rebels...are they really rebels?
What kind of rebel army has such a clear objective, heading straight for the National Academy?
“That’s not right,” Yuan Yao said.
"What's wrong?" Feng Xun asked.
Yuan Yao frowned slightly: "If they were really rebels, they would have started fighting in the city long ago, but there's no chaos in the city!"
This shows that they planned this all along; they wanted to massacre the entire National Academy?
Upon hearing this, Feng Xun gasped.
Jiang Chengyan shivered and said, "If that's really the case, then Prince Xuanping must have been preparing for this for a long time..."
These rebels are probably suicide squads, specially trained to slaughter students of the National Academy..."
Yuan Yao pointed to the already chaotic National Academy: "His rebellion failed, and he slaughtered the entire National Academy. For at least the next hundred years, the Great Qi will have no talent to use."
At that time, the fate of the Great Qi Dynasty will be sealed.
This Prince Xuanping is no different from a madman who, unable to survive on his own, goes to kindergartens or primary schools to kill people and take revenge on society!
No!
Prince Xuanping went even crazier!
He didn't just slaughter one or two people, he slaughtered the entire National Academy!
He wanted the Great Qi Kingdom to be destroyed!
"So that's what he was planning!" Jiang Chengyan slammed his fist on the fence. "No, I have to stop him!"
"Chengyan," Fengxun pulled him back, "You must not act rashly."
“But…” Jiang Chengyan pointed at the National Academy, his eyes red with anxiety: “They want to kill the students of the National Academy! If these students are really killed, the Great Qi Kingdom will be finished!”
Yuan Yao said, "If you go now, you'll be finished."
Jiang Chengyan: "Then what should I do?"
Feng Xun stood with one hand behind his back, watching the people fleeing in all directions: "We have to think of a way to get reinforcements."
Call for reinforcements?
Now that people can't get out, how can we call for reinforcements?
If Yunchan were here!
Yunchan is so smart, she must have a way!
Yuan Yao thought for a moment and then said, "People outside may already know what's going on here."
With the National Academy making such a big fuss, she didn't believe no one would go out and deliver the message.
However, it will take time to mobilize troops...
"Really?" Jiang Chengyan felt a glimmer of hope.
As they were talking, three figures came up from downstairs.
"Xiao Yao'er!" The person in the lead was covered in dust, and his clothes were torn in several places, but his white teeth, missing a few teeth, were dazzling.
Yuan Yao was overjoyed: "Thank you, Master! Lin Xuan!"
Lin Xuan had lost his outer robe somewhere. He was still holding the ruler in his hand, his hand trembling slightly. He said irritably, "I haven't had enough of beating you yet. Why did you bring us back?"
Arrest them?
Yuan Yao scoffed, "I'm saving you!"
At this moment, Canfeng, whose face was shrouded in black mist, stepped forward: "Princess, are you injured?"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the children looked at him.
"He...he is..." Jiang Chengyan pointed at Canfeng and exclaimed in surprise, "Yuan Yao, you actually have a secret guard?"
Yuan Yao nodded: "Yes!"
Jiang Chengyan's face immediately showed displeasure: "Why do you have bodyguards?"
Yuan Yao: "?"
Why can't she have bodyguards?
Besides, is now the time to talk about secret guards?
Yuan Yao adjusted the hairband that was stuck to her cheek and warned fiercely, "No one is allowed to go out and say that I have secret guards, otherwise, I will assassinate you all sooner or later!"
"Hmph!" Jiang Chengyan snorted coldly and turned away to sulk.
Yuan Yao: "..."
Yuan Yao looked Can Feng up and down and asked, "Can you leave the academy without anyone noticing?"
Canfeng nodded: "Yes."
Yuan Yao said, "In that case, go find my father! He has iron cavalry, so he'll get here much faster!"
The Imperial Guards protecting the National Academy are all dead, and the entire army of the capital has been concentrated on besieging Prince Xuanping...
The martial arts instructors from the National Academy and the few older students who knew martial arts were simply not enough to stop this group of assassins who had stormed in!
I really miss the world of the past!
One phone call to report the incident, and then you just have to wait to be rescued.
Whatever happens somewhere makes the headlines immediately.
In ancient times, information was scarce; if something happened, the news couldn't get out...
Canfeng was tall and strong, and he looked around.
After a moment, he said, "Princess, please forgive me for not obeying your orders! I cannot leave you!"
“You…” Yuan Yao frowned slightly.
Just then, she inadvertently glanced over and saw three familiar figures running in the south courtyard, which was separated from theirs by only a wall.
Those are the Crown Prince, Huairou, and Huaiyao!
Behind the three were two assassins wielding long swords.
Lin Xuan also saw that area and exclaimed, "Your Highness!"
As soon as he spoke, the three people who were running wildly immediately looked up.
The assassin with the knife glanced in their direction, his expression changed, and he shouted, "Quick! There are people in the tower! Go and kill them!"
Oh no!
