Chapter 74 Everything Starts Over Again (2)
Qi Lan deployed many people in the manor, all of whom were his confidants. The manor was like a dragnet, and no one could get in.
He did this to avoid assassination in his previous life.
In his previous life, he took Axun out of the palace to watch the lantern festival, but unexpectedly they encountered assassins. There were so many assassins that all the secret guards were stopped.
If no one helped them, they would have been seriously injured if not killed.
Qi Lan looked at little Axun squatting on the ground planting flowers, but what he thought of was her who was hurt in her previous life.
This time, he will not let Axun get hurt again.
"hiss--"
While Qi Lan was thinking about something, he felt pain in his hand. He looked carefully and found that he was cut by the knife when he was peeling an apple.
When little Axun saw this, he quickly brushed the dirt off his hands and ran over, "Brother Alan, you're injured, does it hurt?"
The little girl looked worried.
Qi Lan smiled and patted her head. "It's okay, it's just a small wound. It won't hurt."
Little Axun didn't believe it, so she asked someone to bring ointment and gently applied it on Qi Lan's wound. At the end, she leaned close to the wound and blew slowly on it.
"Blow on it, and the wound will stop hurting."
Qi Lan's eyes softened, "Yes, it doesn't hurt anymore."
At night, little Axun was particularly energetic tonight. Qi Lan told her many bedtime stories, but she couldn't fall asleep.
"It's very late," Qi Lan said seriously, "Xun, be good and close your eyes. It's time to go to bed."
Ah Xun pouted, "But I just can't sleep."
"Brother Alan, I want to go to the rooftop to look at the stars, is that okay?"
Qi Lan was helpless, "Is this the reason why you are so energetic?"
Being hit on the horns, little Axun smiled at him and pulled his sleeve to act coquettishly.
Qi Lan couldn't refuse any of Xiao Axun's requests. He dressed Xiao Axun, wrapped him in a blanket, and then they went up to the roof together.
The stars are especially bright tonight. Little Axun excitedly points at the stars in the sky and tells Qi Lan the names of the stars.
The moonlight is bright and the wind is intoxicating.
The two little ones were lying on the roof. If possible, Qi Lan really wanted to stay at this moment forever.
Unfortunately, some blind people insist on causing trouble.
"There's an assassin! Protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
The black-clad assassins swarmed into the yard where Qi Lan and A Xun were, and the peaceful days were instantly replaced by the sound of swords and knives.
The secret guards appeared to resist the assassins, but because there were too many assassins, twice as many as the secret guards in the manor, the secret guards protected Qi Lan and A Xun and left.
Qi Lan held little Axun in his arms, and the two left here under the protection of the secret guards, but the assassin still caught up with them.
Qi Lan had no choice but to ask Xiao Axun to hide, and he also picked up the sword to fight the assassin.
Little Axun tried hard to hide herself. She didn't know any martial arts and didn't want to cause trouble for her brother Alan.
In a short while, Qi Lan had killed five or six people. Although his martial arts skills were good, he was still a child after all. His physical strength could not keep up and he soon ran out of strength.
After killing another person, he inadvertently saw several people heading towards the direction where Xiao Axun was hiding.
Qi Lan's pupils shrank sharply, and he used all his strength to run towards Xiao Axun, but in the end he was not as fast as the assassin.
The other secret guards were too far away from Xiao Axun and could not arrive in time.
"Axun, get out of the way!"
Several assassins stabbed at Xiao Axun with their knives. Xiao Axun wanted to dodge, but due to the great fear, his body froze in place.
"clang--"
Qi Lan was stunned.
I saw several tall figures falling from the sky, and in a few moves, they killed the assassin who attacked Xiao Axun.
One of them was holding a boy. The boy's chubby face was serious at this moment. He issued an order, "Anyone who dares to touch my royal family will be killed!"
After escaping death, little Axun was held in Qi Lan's arms. She was stunned for a long time before she burst into tears.
Qi Lan ignored everything and kept comforting her.
With help, the assassins were quickly eliminated and little Axun stopped crying, but because it was too thrilling, her little body couldn't help shaking.
Prince Hu, still a child, ordered the secret guards to clean up the scene with an air of maturity. Then he walked up to Qi Lan and said arrogantly, "Second brother, what have you done? You actually let the assassins break into your territory and even scared A Xun. You are really useless."
"No, you are not allowed to say that Brother Alan is useless!"
Little Axun subconsciously defended Qi Lan and refuted King Hu's words.
Prince Xiao Hu was unhappy and said, "I saved you, and I'm his elder brother. What's wrong with saying a few words to him?"
Xiao Axun huffed, "Anyway, you are not allowed to say it!"
The two childish guys were talking back and forth. Little Axun even forgot his fear and kept arguing with the little Hu Wang. If Qi Lan hadn't stopped them, they would have almost fought.
King Xiao Hu couldn't win the argument with her, so he said, "A good man doesn't fight with a woman," and left with his men.
At the end, he also said that Qi Lan owed him a favor and he would repay it in the future.
Little Axun, who had won the argument, was just about to ask for praise when she saw that Qi Lan was injured. She didn't have time to think about anything else and quickly asked the doctor to bandage his wound.
Little Axun was staring at the doctor bandaging Qi Lan's wound, so she didn't see the solemn expression on Qi Lan's face.
Can't you avoid it?
Qi Lan lost his mind.
In his previous life, there were only a dozen assassins chasing them, so he arranged thirty secret guards in the manor, but he just roughly counted them and there were more than fifty of them.
He has returned to his childhood. Even if he knows what will happen in the future, can he not change it?
Then will Axun’s disappearance also happen as expected?
Thinking of this, Qi Lan's breathing stagnated.
wrong.
Feeling the pain, Qi Lan came back to his senses and looked at the bandaged wound.
This time, Xun wasn't injured, not even a scratch. Does that mean...
“It hurts.”
Little Axun suddenly raised his hand with tears in his eyes. He was scratched by something there, but the wound was not big.
But the location of the wound is exactly the same as in the previous life.
Qi Lan nervously pulled her hand over, and compared it with the memories of his previous life, it was indeed exactly the same.
Seeing him so nervous, little Axun felt embarrassed, "Brother Alan, don't be too nervous, my wound is very small, it will be fine if I don't apply medicine!"
Compared to Qi Lan's injuries, little Axun was too embarrassed to cry out in pain.
Qi Lan looked solemn. He took the medicine and carefully applied it to Xiao Axun.
He made a secret decision in his heart and vowed that when the day came that Axun disappeared, he would keep an eye on Axun.
He just didn't believe that Axun could disappear right under his nose!
Prince Xiao Hu's reinforcements came just in time, preventing little Axun from getting hurt, so Qi Lan treated his royal brother much better.
At least when Prince Xiao Hu threatened him that sooner or later he would take the crown prince's position from him, Qi Lan no longer ignored him.
Instead, he said gently, "I'm looking forward to it, come on, big brother."
Little Hu Wang: "..."
Although there was no evidence, he was sure that Qi Lan was mocking him.
So annoying!
It’s better to ignore him!
It turns out that he and that little girl are a perfect match. They are both bad kids who repay kindness with enmity!
