Chapter 427 [Suffering the consequences of one's own actions]
The two guards originally saw Jiang Lili as harmless and helpless, and focused their attention on Xin Che who was beside her.
Unexpectedly, this female spy was still so arrogant and full of fighting spirit after being caught. Does she want to die?
Sheng Yin walked up to Jiang Lili with a fierce look on his face and raised his hand.
Just as her slap was about to hit Jiang Lili's face, a dark shadow stood in front of Jiang Lili and pushed Sheng Yin away.
Sheng Yin was knocked to the ground by Xin Che, and the guards' exclamations rang in her ears: "Princess, be careful!"
Her personal maid rushed over to help her, but was frightened by Xin Che's cold look and stood still, not daring to move.
Xin Che had broken free from the ropes at some point and had already drawn out his guard's sword, pointing the tip of the sword at Sheng Yin on the ground. His movements were so fast and smooth.
The guards in the tent quickly drew their swords and surrounded Xin Che and Jiang Lili, saying, "Put down your swords!"
"If you dare to touch the princess, both of you will die without a burial place today!"
"The camp is heavily guarded. You two can't escape. Don't resist any longer. Surrender now!"
Sheng Yin never expected that she would be pointed at by a captured spy with a sword right under the noses of so many soldiers: "You bunch of trash! What use are you to me?"
She also realized that the man who used the alias Xin Da was far more skilled than the generals under her command.
Sheng Yin was surprised and puzzled. When did such a god-like figure appear in Nanzhao?
Oh, and this herdsman and the logistics soldier who was doing the purchasing told me they were from a small island in the sea. I'm afraid it's more than just a small island.
"Even if you kill me now, you won't be able to leave my camp safely."
Xin Che remained calm: "We never thought of running away."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Yin thought that with this man's skills, if he wanted to take her life, he might have had the opportunity to kill her when he disguised himself as the manager of the Cat Room in the Princess's Mansion.
She lay on the ground in a mess, confusion and hidden anger in her eyes, "Who sent you, and what do you want from me?"
Jiang Lili poked her head out from behind Xin Che: "Didn't I make it very clear just now?"
She looked down at Sheng Yin and said, "You stole my sheep and injured my people. Naturally, you have to pay the price."
"Sheep? You sold the sheep to the herders at the Anemone City military camp?"
Sheng Yin was so upset that she only noticed that Jiang Lili was disrespectful to her and didn't think about what she said carefully.
Realizing something, Sheng Yin's voice suddenly rose, the hatred in her eyes unable to be concealed: "It was you who sent the sheep that caused my entire battalion to suffer from vomiting and diarrhea. How dare you come and cause trouble for me?"
"You were the ones who robbed us first because of a disagreement. Why are you now blaming us for the sheep we sent you?"
Jiang Lili shrugged slightly: "You are reaping what you sow."
"So what happened next? Wasn't the reward I gave you enough? Didn't you also rob my underground private vault?"
Sheng Yin was stalling for time while winking at Deputy General Duan in the tent.
This Xin Da was also arrogant, and just pointed the tip of his sword at her.
If a few soldiers could knock Xin Da down, he could escape.
If she was accidentally stabbed by the sword, there was a life-saving hemostatic pill hidden in the golden peony hairpin on her head.
Sheng Yin became more and more angry as she spoke: "Hasn't what you took from me been enough?"
--"not enough."
Jiang Lili said firmly: "If no one offends me, I will not offend anyone. If someone offends me, I will retaliate a hundredfold."
Jiang Lili looked at her, her eyes gradually turning cold: "I want all of you."
The soldiers under Sheng Yin broke Rong Yi's shoulder blade while stealing sheep. Rong Yi is still bandaged and half of his upper body is paralyzed.
"Let's start with your shoulder blades."
As soon as Jiang Lili finished speaking, the tip of the sword in Xin Che's hand pierced into Sheng Yin's right shoulder blade and nailed it into the ground!
"Well--"
Fresh red blood flowed out from the place where he was stabbed. Sheng Yin felt pain and a painful expression appeared on his face.
I didn't expect that the two of them would actually dare to touch her on her territory!
"Your Highness!"
At this moment, seeing that the sword in Xin Che's hand had been stuck in the ground and could not be pulled out, and that he had no weapon that could hurt the princess, the three generals under Sheng Yin seized the opportunity, rushed forward, and pounced on Xin Che!
Xin Che pulled Jiang Lili down and rolled her on the ground, avoiding the pounce of three generals.
However, the guards who swarmed over arrived just in time and surrounded the two most dangerous men on the ground, drawing their swords from their waists and pointing them at the two men.
Xin Che hugged Jiang Lili tightly and glanced at the swords that surrounded them.
Jiang Lili secretly handed the pistol in her sleeve to Xin Che.
The sword on Sheng Yin's shoulder had been pulled out by the general, and Deputy General Duan immediately tore off a strip of cloth to give the Holy Infant an emergency bandage to stop the bleeding.
Sheng Yin was helped up, her eyes dim. Qiao Xiang was surrounded by Xin Che and Jiang Lili, saying, "I thought she was so powerful."
"It turns out he's an impulsive, generalist."
"If you kill me directly, I will still think highly of you."
Sheng Yin was helped back to her throne and looked at Jiang Lili and the others. "You are from the small island? You are not the eldest prince's or the third prince's people... I am a little curious about what this small island you are talking about is like."
Sheng Yin had heard a long time ago that there were other small countries near Nanzhao, but these small countries were very mysterious and had little contact with foreign countries.
Sheng Yin's face turned paler as he spoke.
Deputy General Duan quickly advised, "Princess, please be quiet and wait for the army doctor to arrive. The bleeding won't stop. If you don't get treatment in time, your arm and half of your shoulder will be useless!"
"No problem. Cuizhu, please take off the golden peony hairpin on my head."
Sheng Yin instructed her personal maid.
The maid hurriedly did as she was told, took off the golden peony hairpin, and respectfully placed it in Sheng Yin's left hand.
Sheng Yin had lost too much blood and her consciousness was a little blurred. The instructions and solemnity of her father Sheng Zhixing when he gave her the hairpin emerged in her mind, as well as the scene of him personally putting the hemostatic pill into the secret groove of the hairpin away from light.
"Father, I will personally burn incense for you at the Royal Ancestral Hall during Qingming Festival next year."
She muttered something and pressed the mechanism on the golden peony hairpin with her fingers.
However, when the mechanism on the golden peony hairpin was opened, there was nothing hidden inside!
Sheng Yin was suddenly struck by lightning, and her scattered consciousness suddenly regained consciousness: "How is this possible!"
"Where's my hemostatic pill?"
Not to mention that she wears this hairpin every day, only Sheng Zhixing and she know how to open this mechanism, and no one else can master the skills to open the mechanism!
Sheng Yin panicked: "Hurry, hurry up and get the doctor here quickly, why hasn't the doctor arrived yet?"
