"Don't worry." He took out the soul-guiding grass from his arms.
Gu Yunni took a deep breath. Their mission this time was completely completed. Without further hesitation, they all ran all the way to the border between the two countries.
The Royal Guards were still pressing forward from behind, seemingly determined to kill them.
Although Gu Yunni was slightly injured, she was still able to stop their attack.
"Yun Ni, are you okay?" Sheng Mingyu looked at her worriedly, fearing that she might have an accident.
"What could possibly happen to me? The most important thing is to get out of here as soon as possible. The Queen to the west must have a backup plan."
Gu Yunni thought about the unusualness of this woman and knew that if she was caught by her this time, she would probably never be able to survive.
"Don't worry about my injury for now. Let's go back first. The Imperial Master will pick us up when the time comes."
She sent a letter to the imperial teacher in advance, asking him to bring people to pick her up and send the princess back to the country together, hoping that he would be reliable this time.
Everyone was rushing along the way, fearing that they would be caught up by the Royal Guards behind them.
When they arrived at the border between the two countries, Gu Yunni took out fireworks from the package.
"quick!"
Sheng Mingyu understood what he meant, and fireworks exploded brilliantly in the sky.
The national teacher did not disappoint their expectations and rushed over with a large army. The pursuers behind him also arrived at this time.
"Stop!" The national teacher stepped forward and protected everyone behind him.
Seeing this, the Royal Guards realized that war was inevitable. The two armies clashed swords and there was a sound of fighting.
Gu Yunni looked at the situation in front of her, gritted her teeth and stood up straight, "I'm fine, let's deal with these soldiers first."
She knew that these people were only temporarily confused. "Why are you hunting down Mingyu and me?"
"Of course it's because you, a vicious woman, killed my two western neighbor princes and even tried to assassinate His Majesty and the Empress!"
They looked at Gu Yunni angrily, as if they were certain that she was the murderer.
"What you see may not be the truth. Why don't you let me show you who did this? Who is this vicious person?"
Gu Yunni just chanted a few spells, and the shadow of the queen from the west appeared in front of the people around her, and her words were clearly heard by their ears.
"The queen you protect killed the eldest prince and was even planning to kill the emperor to the west. Everything you mentioned was done by her. Do you really want to work for such a vicious person?"
The guards of the Imperial Guards became extremely terrified. They didn't know why things had developed to this point, and they had no idea that the queen they respected was such a vicious person!
At this point, their minds are in chaos and it is naturally impossible for them to continue fighting.
Seeing that the Imperial Guards had retreated, Gu Yunni finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"This matter is not simple. We should return to the palace as soon as possible."
Sheng Mingyu had exactly this in mind. There was a shortage of manpower in the capital, and they were all at the border, so it was difficult to guarantee the safety of everyone in the palace.
"Let's get going first."
The group galloped along, but were blocked by a tripwire when passing through the woods.
"who?"
Seeing that they were discovered, the people hiding in the dark had no intention of hiding any longer. A large group of men in black rushed out from the woods.
Gu Yunni frowned, "There's an assassin, everyone be careful."
She followed Sheng Mingyu and the Imperial Master, intending to protect them, but the next moment she sensed something was wrong with the people around her.
"Mingyu, what's wrong with you?"
Sheng Mingyu wanted to comfort her that nothing was wrong, but the next moment he spat out a mouthful of blood.
The blood stained his clothes, and made Gu Yunni realize that there must be something wrong with this matter.
"Mingyu is protected by the true dragon's aura, how could it be..." Gu Yunni suddenly paused when she said this. She looked carefully and saw that Sheng Mingyu's aura had changed.
The true dragon energy that was originally entrenched in him had now been plundered, and his forehead was black, making him look like he would not live long. This must be the sequelae of his luck being plundered.
"Mingyu, don't say anything yet. I'll help you take back your luck."
In Gu Yunni's opinion, this is the most vicious curse, and plundering other people's luck will be punished by heaven.
The Imperial Master naturally noticed that something was amiss and came forward to help set up the formation. "Are you sure?"
"I'm 90% sure. Please ask the Imperial Master to help me protect the formation."
She took out the soul-guiding grass that she had just obtained. Sheng Mingyu's condition could not be delayed any longer, and she had to help him eliminate all hidden dangers.
The Imperial Master stood in front of her, looking at the assassins around him with an increasingly solemn expression. It was obvious that these people had appeared at this time on purpose. These killers were most likely the same people who had plundered Sheng Mingyu's luck behind the scenes.
The black energy on Sheng Mingyu's face was temporarily removed by the soul-guiding grass in Gu Yunni's hand, and the true dragon energy gradually returned to his body.
Seeing his face gradually turn red, Gu Yunni felt relieved.
Fortunately, it was discovered in time, otherwise Sheng Mingyu would have died today.
Of course, she did not forget to observe the situation outside.
The assassin was finally controlled.
When Gu Yunni helped Sheng Mingyu up, all the assassins had been eliminated, leaving only a few still breathing.
The Imperial Master looked at the assassins coldly, "Who sent you here? If you explain clearly, you can still leave your body intact."
A few people laughed loudly, and finally they all bit their tongues to commit suicide.
"They are assassins." Sheng Mingyu noticed the poison they mentioned and immediately understood the identities of these people.
The clues were cut off here, but everyone knew who arranged this incident.
"It seems that something big must have happened in the capital, otherwise they wouldn't dare to be so arrogant."
If the emperor knew about this, he would definitely not allow them to take action.
Sheng Mingyu said nothing, his eyes full of worry.
Gu Yunni knew that he was worried about the safety of the emperor and the imperial concubine. "We will be back in the capital soon. No matter what happens, there will definitely be a way to solve it. Mingyu, don't worry."
"I'm just worried they'll use some harsh methods."
Sheng Mingyu took a deep breath and calmed himself down. "Everyone is tired today. Let's set up camp here."
Although he was eager to return to the capital to see what was going on, he also knew that these soldiers had experienced too much today and would not be able to bear it if they continued like this, so he decided to set off early tomorrow morning.
Even though he already had a plan in mind, Sheng Mingyu still tossed and turned in bed at night.
Gu Yunni knew that he must have something on his mind. "Are you worried about the situation in the capital?"
She sat next to Sheng Mingyu and looked at the moon in the sky.
