As for Liu Sheng, he and the man in black were chasing the runaway carriage one after the other. The man in black was in front and Liu Sheng was riding behind. Shihu had already been left behind by the two and was almost invisible.

Liu Sheng rode his horse while drawing his bow and shooting arrows. Every arrow hit the man in black as he tried to dodge. But his arrows were too fast and accurate. After two or three rounds, he was already covered in wounds and his speed gradually slowed down.

Liu Sheng approached, drew an arrow, and aimed it at the back of his head. He aimed for a long time but was in no hurry to release it.

The man in black knew that Liu Sheng had predicted his movements, and reason told him not to expose all his movements to Liu Sheng. But instinct made him dodge as much as possible to avoid being caught by Liu Sheng.

After so many years of wandering around the martial arts world, this was the first time he was pressed so hard by someone. He actually felt like he was at a dead end, and his instinct forced him to get rid of Liu Sheng as soon as possible. Otherwise, within ten breaths, Liu Sheng would be able to see through everything he had and shoot him to death.

It is really unexpected that a Taifu who is so high in the temple has such superb archery skills. With this accuracy and speed, he dares to say that even if the person running for his life here is their deputy leader Xingmu, he may not be able to escape harm.

This Liu Sheng is really scary.

Liu Sheng took about seven or eight breaths, and suddenly the corners of his mouth curled up. Your life has ended today.

The next second, his hand loosened, and the arrow flew straight toward the back of his head with a swoosh. The man in black felt a strong wind at the back of his head, and instinctively wanted to dodge. However, his body had already reached its limit, and he could not dodge at all.

The fear before death made his pupils suddenly dilate. At this moment, he deeply understood what it meant to struggle to death, to be desperate and helpless.

Just when he thought he was doomed, a dark shadow came flying from behind at a very high speed, so fast that even arrows could not catch up.

The black shadow brushed past the arrow and moved forward, grabbing the man in black before the arrow hit his head, and then threw him onto the speeding carriage in front.

Liu Sheng immediately pulled the reins. Although he hadn't seen clearly who the person was, he could guess who was faster than an arrow.

Sure enough, when both sides stopped, he saw Zhongyuan Yidianhong standing not far from him: "Master Liu, spare his life, he was just following the orders of the sect."

Liu Sheng didn't say anything, he just pulled the reins and walked back, Zhongyuan Yidianhong released the person. And he threw him on the carriage, which proved that the person on the carriage was not Ye Qingwan, as for who it was, there was no need to say.

When he returned, he saw Ye Qingwan sitting on the roof of the palace's carriage, holding her chin with her hand, looking depressed and doubting her life.

"Why are you here? Weren't you robbed?" Liu Sheng pretended to be surprised.

Ye Qingwan rolled her eyes at him and acted even better than me: "They kidnapped the wrong person. They kidnapped the Ninth Prince."

"Oh, I see. That's a pity."

Ye Qingwan:? ?

What do you regret?

It's me who should be sorry, okay?

That's not right...

"Where is the Ninth Prince?"

Liu Sheng got off the horse, handed the reins to Shihu, and said casually: "I didn't catch up, I ran too fast."

Why is there a hint of gloating in this indifferent tone?

"If you didn't catch up, then what?" Ye Qingwan was dumbfounded. The person sitting inside was the ninth prince of the dynasty. You just gave up on him like that? Have you asked his father?

"Then?" Liu Sheng looked confused. "Then I came back. I couldn't catch up with him. What else could I do if I didn't come back? Would I disappear like him?"

Ye Qingwan: “…”

I have something to say, but I don’t know if I should say it…

At this time, the Ninth Prince was being shaken by the carriage. In fact, he could have gotten off the carriage long ago, and it was not difficult. But he did not get off, just to see where they wanted to take him?

And what about Xia Xuejian, what exactly does she want to do to him?

The man in black escaped the danger and quickly subdued the horse and took control of the carriage. When he arrived at the agreed location, he lifted the curtain and took a look at the person still wrapped in the quilt, who must have been dizzy from the shaking of the carriage.

He himself was also seriously injured, so he no longer cared about "her". He handed the carriage to his men, asked them to hand the person over to Xia Xuejian later, and then left to recuperate.

Now when I think back to the thrilling experience just now, I still can't help but feel a chill down my spine. What lingers in my mind is the mocking smile on Liu Sheng's lips when he held the bow and arrow.

It is no exaggeration to say that after so many years in the martial arts world, he has become somewhat famous and his kung fu is also on the list of masters. Today is the first time that he has been forced into a desperate situation and was laughed at by the other party.

What's more, the other party was actually a high-ranking imperial tutor and a civil servant. It was simply ridiculous.

By the time Xia Xuejian arrived at the place agreed with the man in black, the man in black's men had already tied up everyone in the carriage, including their quilts.

Seeing her coming, I handed the person over to her and left.

Xia Xuejian's injury was not serious, but her bones seemed to be broken. Otherwise, how could one say that Zhongyuan Yidianhong was really good at fighting. Every punch hit the flesh, but every knife avoided the vital parts.

It won’t kill you, but it’s extremely painful, like torture.

Xia Xuejian vented all her resentment on Ye Qingwan. She came up and kicked her, knocking her to the ground with the quilt.

She wanted to go up again, but the pain in her body prevented her from making large movements. So she winked at Youwei and said, "Leave it to you."

Youwei was stunned for a moment. He had no grudge against Ye Qingwan, so he couldn't bring himself to do it. Besides...

It seems like she hasn't done anything wrong. She's already on the road to exile. Why do you still have to make things difficult for her?

Seeing that Youwei was still hesitant to act, Xia Xue urged him, "What are you standing there for? Why don't you act now?"

Youwei raised the knife and stared at the person under the quilt for a long time, his breathing gradually becoming heavier.

Finally, he threw the knife away with a clang: "Miss, forget it, she has been exiled and can't hinder you anymore."

waste!

Xia Xuejian was so angry that she picked up the knife and was about to do it herself. Youwei quickly stopped her: "If you kill her, the Prime Minister will not let you go."

"If you don't tell me, the Prime Minister won't know."

"But Zhongyuan Yidianhong knows about it." Youwei tried his best to dissuade him. He never thought of killing Ye Qingwan.

Xia Xuejian stared at Youwei for a long time and said, "Okay, then if you defile her, I will let her go."

Youwei was stunned. He looked at Ye Qingwan who said nothing, and then at Xia Xuejian, and was extremely shocked.

"Choose one, either defile her or let me kill her with a knife."

Xia Xuejian didn't give him time to hesitate and forced him to make a decision as soon as possible.

Youwei was trembling all over. He had never done such a heartless thing before. He...

He couldn't do it, but if he didn't do it, Ye Qingwan would die...
