The group quickly arrived at the scene of the incident.
This is the main street of Chigen City. The usually bustling street is now deserted, and even the street vendors have packed up their stalls, while the nearby shops have closed their doors.
However, behind the closed shop doors, there were many curious eyes.
Only a group of black-clad warriors remained on the street, pointing their swords at the few people in the center.
Wu Yushan shielded Nian'er behind him, while An Yi, An Er, and Huan Zhi also surrounded Nian'er.
A young warrior looked at Wu Yushan with an arrogant air.
"If you hand this little girl over to us and then commit seppuku, I will plead with the Crown Prince to spare the lives of the others."
Wu Yushan sneered, "Just you guys? Enough talk, come at me all at once."
Matsudaira Kiyomasa looked at the sword in Wu Yushan's hand, his eyes turning cold.
He had fought Wu Yushan before and knew he was no match for him; otherwise, Wu Yushan would not have been able to seriously injure the prince right under his nose.
Matsudaira Kiyomasa also realized that not only Wu Yushan, but also the people around Wu Yushan were no pushovers.
However, he was not afraid. No matter how strong they were, the other side was only five or six people, including a little girl of five or six years old. Could they possibly stand up to their dozens of shogunate samurai?
If he doesn't bring the person who injured the Crown Prince back to the Shogunate today and hand them over to the Shogun for punishment, he, as the Crown Prince's close attendant (chief bodyguard), can forget about living to see the sun rise tomorrow.
"Go get her! Don't hurt the little girl!" Matsudaira Kiyomasa shouted.
The crown prince was immediately captivated by this exquisitely beautiful girl, who resembled a fairy from heaven, and thus decided to take her as his concubine. He dared not harm this girl.
In Yamato, any young master from a noble family can marry a girl he fancys, regardless of her age, and raise her until she is old enough to consummate the marriage.
At Matsudaira Kiyomasa's command, the samurai charged toward the group.
Wu Yushan, An Yi, An Er, and Huan Zhi fought each other with swords.
Seeing this scene, Nian'er remained calm, raised her left hand, and activated the mechanism on the small bracelet on her hand, shooting it towards the person who was close to her.
With a press, a poisoned needle shot out from the bracelet, and one of the opponents fell down.
This was a birthday gift that her mother secretly gave her, not daring to let her father know. She never expected it would come in handy today.
Her mother always warned her that one should not have the heart to harm others, but one should not be without the heart to guard against others, especially a young girl who should know how to protect herself.
This time when she went out to explore Chiheng City, Nian'er was extra careful and brought this small bracelet as a hidden weapon, just in case.
However, the enemy had too many people, and Wu Yushan and his companions were somewhat overwhelmed.
Fortunately, the other party did not want to hurt Nian'er, and they restrained their attacks.
Seeing his men gaining an advantage in the fight, Matsudaira Kiyomasa relaxed considerably.
In Yamato, no one has dared to harm the Crown Prince. Once these people are brought back to the Shogunate, he will definitely teach them a lesson!
Suddenly seeing an opening, Matsudaira Kiyomasa lunged at Nian'er.
As long as we capture this little girl, we can just kill the others!
The next second, Matsudaira Kiyomasa felt a gust of wind behind him, then his vision blurred, and he felt as if he had been struck in the chest with a hammer, and he was sent flying uncontrollably.
Falling to the ground, Matsudaira Kiyomasa felt a sharp pain in his chest and coughed up blood.
who? !
Who dares to hurt him!
Matsudaira Kiyomasa looked up and saw a handsome, noble-looking man in front of him, holding the little girl they wanted to capture, who was looking at him coldly.
The man's eyes were like thorns, as if they could pierce through his body, and the coldness emanating from him made Matsudaira Kiyomasa feel like he was about to suffocate under this pressure.
Then the man softly uttered a sentence, "Hu Qing, kill them all."
"yes!"
Matsudaira Kiyomasa saw the enemy's men charge straight into their crowd, and the situation instantly reversed.
Matsudaira Kiyomasa also saw a woman, but after she sprinkled some powder on the crowd, their own people suddenly started killing each other.
What's going on?!
