"The person Her Majesty the Empress wants?"
Liu Wei laughed loudly, "Hahaha!"
Is it her?
Liu Wei pointed his whip at Fu Rou, who was standing to the side.
Fu Rou's face turned pale; she thought Liu Wei was going to send her away.
But then I thought, I have already delivered the princess's secret letter, so even if I die, it is worth it.
Wang Fangyi looked nervous, thinking about how to plead with Liu Wei, but he didn't know how to start.
Seeing that the soldiers opposite were about to take Fu Rou away, Pei Yuanshao shouted, "Your Highness, I am willing to go with them, but please do not hand over this young lady!"
Wang Fangyi felt a pang of shame. The moment the woman met his gaze, he had already fallen deeply in love.
However, I never expected that at the crucial moment, I would be less loyal and righteous than a bandit.
"Your Highness, I beg you with my life, please don't hand her over to them!"
Seeing that Pei Yuanshao had pleaded for him first, Wang Fangyi hurriedly stepped forward and clasped his hands in supplication.
Liu Wei remained silent, looking at Yuan Shu with a half-smile.
Yuan Shu was taken aback. Was Liu Wei really going to hand over this woman?
It seems Liu Wei has no intention of considering the feelings of the eldest princess.
Yuan Shu looked around, hoping He Miao would send someone to take the man away.
But he didn't see He Miao, so he prepared to send his men forward.
Even if I were to take it myself, I would give it to He Miao.
"I beg Your Highness's permission!" Yuan Shu said, bowing. "I am only acting on the Empress's orders and have no other choice!"
"The whole world knows that Empress He and I are at odds. How could I possibly hand her over!"
"Who said I would hand over the person?"
However, Liu Wei gave a cold laugh, "Captain Yuan, I will never hand over this woman. Are you perhaps trying to snatch her away?"
Yuan Shu said this only to show He Miao, to let him know that Liu Wei was protecting this maid, thus confirming that there was something fishy going on between Liu Wei and the Princess.
As expected, He Miao, who was standing to the side, understood what Liu Wei was doing and was anxious to rush back to Luoyang to report the matter.
However, the plan we just discussed still needs to be carried out.
He Miao then signaled one of his men to act according to the situation, while he quietly spurred his horse and retreated.
Meanwhile, faced with Liu Wei's questioning, how could Yuan Shu dare to seize the person?
He had no reason to try and take people away!
Yuan Shu quickly replied, "Your Highness, how could this humble general dare to rob?"
"Then why aren't you moving aside? We need to get through now!" Liu Wei shouted.
"Pass on my military order to clear a path for the prince and his entourage."
Yuan Shu immediately gave the order.
A thousand infantrymen immediately retreated to both sides.
It wasn't that Yuan Shu was sensible; rather, Liu Wei had his own ulterior motives, which he had already seen through.
Yuan Shu did not make things difficult for him, and Liu Wei did not pester him too much.
"Captain Yuan, thank you very much!"
Liu Wei gave a polite reply, then ordered the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun to lead the way, with the Imperial Guard bringing up the rear.
He then led Shen Lianwang Fangyi, protecting Fu Rou and Pei Yuanshao, and entered among Yuan Shu's subordinates.
Yuan Shu, accompanied by several guards, followed not far behind Liu Wei, intending to escort him.
Halfway through the journey, a sudden whooshing sound arose!
A volley of arrows was fired from Yuan Shu's soldiers.
Everyone was stunned.
"Protect the prince!"
Wang Fangyi reacted quickly, shouting as he shielded Liu Wei with his body.
Shen Lian and several other Imperial Guards pounced on the direction from which the arrows came, like fierce tigers.
Wang Fangyi was hit by five or six arrows, but despite the strength of his armor, several arrows were deflected.
Only one blade pierced his armor, causing him a superficial wound.
However, while he could protect this side, an opening appeared on the other side.
Five or six arrows were aimed at Liu Wei's head and body.
Although Liu Wei wore a set of golden armor under the royal robe, he was wearing a purple-gold crown on his head, which offered no protection whatsoever.
The arrow came suddenly, and Liu Wei could only reach out to block it.
Caught off guard at such close range, Liu Wei was shot in the arm, bleeding profusely.
This is probably the first time he has been injured since he transmigrated.
"How dare they ambush the Prince! Kill them!"
Wang Fangyi turned around despite the pain and discovered that Liu Wei was injured. He was furious and immediately gave an order.
Immediately, the eighteen riders of Yanyun in front, the guards behind, and the Imperial Guards in the middle all took action.
In such close combat, Yuan Shu's soldiers were completely bewildered and were cut down in large numbers.
The Imperial Guard and the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun showed no mercy when they started killing.
In particular, they dared to ambush Liu Wei and even injured him.
In an instant, screams of agony filled the valley!
More than a thousand people were in the valley, hundreds of meters apart, with no idea what was happening in the middle.
All they heard were screams echoing through the valley, and people running in both directions.
He Miao, who had already run quite a distance, heard the commotion in the valley and was secretly delighted.
Now Yuan Shu and Liu Wei are fighting, and the fiercer the fight, the better.
The feud between Liu Wei and the Yuan family is a good thing for the He family!
He triumphantly brandished his whip and quickly left the valley.
Yuan Shu, who was standing not far from Liu Wei, was even more surprised that someone would launch a sneak attack on Liu Wei.
It was impossible for any of his soldiers to disobey orders and launch a sneak attack on Liu Wei.
Damn it, needless to say, it must be He Miao's man!
He deliberately provoked a fight so that I would have to fight against the King of Clouds' men.
Immediately, Yuan Shu understood what was going on and hurriedly explained loudly to Liu Wei:
"Your Highness, stop! Please stop immediately! Someone is trying to frame me!"
However, Liu Wei was surrounded by ten guards, and two guards were bandaging his wounds to stop the bleeding.
