Chapter 428 [Your Dad is Here]
"I will go and urge them right away!"
Deputy General Duan turned around and was about to walk out of the tent.
"Don't rush. The doctor won't come."
Everyone turned around in surprise, and the person who spoke was Jiang Lili, who was surrounded.
Sheng Yin immediately realized that the disappearance of the hemostatic pill was also closely related to Jiang Lihua. She stared at Jiang Lili with resentment and ordered the soldiers with a weak breath: "Destroy her shoulder blade!"
Jiang Lili was not nervous at all when she heard the voice. She said to the soldiers who were about to draw their swords, "Listen carefully to the sounds outside. This place will soon change hands. Do you still want to listen to the princess?"
Xin Che's slender fingers clamped the tip of the sword closest to Jiang Lili.
“He who knows the times is a hero.”
He looked at the owner of the sword, whose hand was shaking as he held the sword.
These guards all went to listen to the sounds outside the tent, and their faces became visibly panicked.
"Does it feel good to see the things you have in your hands disappear one by one?"
"From today on, you will be nothing."
"What a big tone!"
At this time, the sound of swords clashing could be faintly heard outside the tent, as well as continuous explosions, which made people panic.
"Oh no! Enemy attack!"
"Quickly inform the princess!"
…
The noisy and chaotic sounds outside the tent made Sheng Yin unable to believe her ears. She felt a chill in her heart. At this critical juncture, the eldest prince and the third prince were fighting among themselves. Who led the raid on their camp?
Just as everyone in the tent noticed the chaos outside the tent, soldiers immediately rushed into the tent.
Deputy General Duan hurriedly asked, "Has the defense line north of Haikui City been breached? Is the Crown Prince attacking again?"
It’s unlikely considering the time!
"No!" the soldier said anxiously, "The southern port has been lost. The people who got on and off the ship from Xiushui Island weren't ours, but a group of elite soldiers from an unfamiliar force!"
Hearing the words "strange forces", Sheng Yin suddenly turned to look at Jiang Lili: "Which country sent you from?"
Sheng Yin was still holding Jiang Lili and Xin Che hostage. "Make sure you keep an eye on these two! The people outside are here to rescue them."
She covered her wound, holding on with a weak breath: "As long as the lives of these two people are in our hands, we will be fine!"
Sheng Yin was not sure how many people the other party had brought with him, and he was a little afraid that his soldiers would give up kidnapping Jiang Lili and Xin Che and surrender to the other party.
Thinking of this, she hurriedly shouted with all her might, "Even if I die today, I will not let you invade my Nanzhao territory!"
After saying this, she placed her hand somewhere under the desk.
Sheng Yin asked the craftsmen to set up a mechanism so that the wooden board under where she was sitting would open if the situation was not right.
She would fall into a secret escape passage, where two secret guards would take her away, and these generals would definitely risk their lives to help her delay time.
The soldiers in the tent heard Sheng Yin's call and roughly guessed the ins and outs of the matter. A small country overseas learned about the civil strife in their Southern Dynasty and wanted to get involved!
The generals were inspired by Sheng Yin's words and they all shared the same hatred for the enemy. "How can we, the great Nanzhao, allow a small foreign nation like you to invade us?"
"Subordinates will report again and investigate again!"
Just as the soldier who reported the news turned around to leave the tent, an arrow flew in from outside the tent, pierced the tent curtain and pierced his body.
He fell straight down.
Then, the curtain of the tent was lifted by the sword.
A figure stood at the entrance of the tent against the light.
When they saw this person, everyone except Jiang Lili and Xin Che widened their eyes as if they had seen a ghost.
Their mouths opened so wide in surprise that an egg could fit in them.
When Sheng Yin saw the person coming, her hand on the mechanism softened and she shouted in disbelief, "Father?"
The person standing at the door was Sheng Yin’s real father, Emperor Sheng Zhixing of Nanzhao!
At this moment, he was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, and he looked energetic, without any trace of the embarrassment he had when escaping. He was even sharper and more domineering than when he was in power before!
The soldiers' morale, which had just risen, suddenly deflated like a balloon punctured by a needle, and the expressions on their faces turned into fear.
Sheng Zhixing smiled wryly, his eyes sweeping over the soldiers in the tent: "My dear ministers, there is no need to be so nervous."
"Relax~Everyone outside is mine."
These words made the soldiers in the tent sweat profusely. The capable generals present were all Sheng Zhixing's former subordinates. Who could relax?!
Didn't the old emperor die at sea? Why is he back?
And he came back with enough troops to encircle and wipe out all of them!
Thousands of doubts lingered in everyone's mind, but one thing was certain: their nightmare would begin today.
Jiang Lili saw Sheng Zhixing's domineering appearance and said, "Damn it, he's pretending to be me!"
The League Secretary must have secretly rehearsed this entrance and lines many times on the way here!
The soldiers surrounding Jiang Lili and Xin Che were so frightened that they had already put down their weapons.
Originally they thought they had caught an internal traitor, but unexpectedly these two people were actually the old emperor's subordinates, and the internal traitor turned out to be themselves!
Sheng Yin came back to his senses from the shock, and with quick eyes and hands, he used up his last bit of strength to press the mechanism under the table.
With a "click", the wooden board under Sheng Yin's feet opened, and she fell into the tunnel and disappeared into the tent.
When the soldiers saw Sheng Yin abandoning them and running away, their eyes flashed with grief and anger of being betrayed and abandoned, and their faces looked dejected.
However, less than a moment after Sheng Yin fell, he was pushed up again by someone hiding in the underground passage.
Jiang Lili couldn't help laughing when she saw Sheng Yin popping out from under the desk like a groundhog.
The secret passage under the desk is the one-way secret passage from the Princess Mansion to the Anemone City Military Camp. However, this secret passage not only extends to the Anemone City Military Camp, but also extends all the way to the seaside. Whether escaping from the Princess Mansion or the military camp, one can go to the seaside and escape by boat.
Jiang Lili had already reported this escape route to Sheng Zhixing. Sheng Zhixing had already led his men to occupy the princess's mansion, followed the clues, and sent two Xin family soldiers to wait for the opportunity under this mechanism.
Seeing Jiang Lili smile, Xin Che couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth and look indulgently.
At this time, Sheng Yin covered his shoulders, looking half dead, leaning against the desk, and his originally pale face turned a little red with anger.
After failing to escape in public and being forced to retreat by people arranged by Sheng Zhixing, Sheng Yin wanted to die.
Sheng Zhixing chuckled and looked at Sheng Yin who was pushed forward: "Oh, my daughter is getting more and more shy as she grows up. She wants to run away when she sees me, her father."
Sheng Yin weakly crawled on the ground, her tone weak and pitiful: "Father, my arm is about to be broken, can you find a doctor to take a look at me?"
In the past, as long as she asked, her father would never refuse any of her requests.
