The tent was quiet, but the fight outside was getting more and more intense.
Accompanied by the sound of arrows breaking through the air, several arrows were stuck in the tent.
The people inside were frightened and quickly took a few steps back.
Shen Nian protected the emperor tightly and moved a few steps into the tent. Just as he moved over, the back of the tent was also hit by an arrow.
We are attacked from both sides here and it is no longer safe.
Several adults also looked at Shen Nian, waiting for him to make a decision.
"We can't stay here anymore, let's go out first." Shen Nian said in a low voice.
There was no shelter in the tent, and if arrows kept being shot, they would all become targets.
I must go out and find a place to lean on, so that at least I won’t be attacked from both sides.
"Okay." The emperor was very straightforward and calm at this moment. "Come here together, my lords. Don't disperse when we go out."
"Yes." Several adults quickly agreed, approached the emperor, and followed Shen Nian to prepare to go out first.
Mu Feng and Muchen stood in front with swords in hand to protect them.
At this time, Captain He opened the curtain and came in, "Your Majesty, we can't stay here anymore. We need to move to another place."
Captain He was holding his other arm with one hand and seemed to be injured.
Shen Nian frowned, “Captain He, are you injured?”
"It's nothing, just a minor injury." Captain He's breathing was a little rapid. "There are too many people coming, all of them are highly skilled in martial arts, and there are archers lying in ambush around us. We can't resist them for the time being. Let's find a hidden place to hide first."
The main reason is that they are worried about the emperor being here and cannot act as freely as those assassins.
Shen Nian took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and threw it to Captain He, "Take one of these pills."
He could see that Captain He had suffered more than just minor injuries.
Captain He caught the porcelain bottle thrown by Shen Nian, poured out a pill and fed it into his mouth without any hesitation.
He knew this medicine, the kind that could save lives.
After eating, he was about to give the porcelain bottle to Shen Nian.
Shen Nian said in a cold voice, “You take it first.”
Captain He retracted his outstretched hand and put it directly into his arms.
"Let's go, follow me out first." Captain He took the lead and went out of the tent.
"Mu Feng, Mu Chen, protect the adults." Shen Nian ordered.
"Follow me closely." Chen Nian turned and said to Xia Tian, then protected the emperor and left the tent.
When more than 20 imperial guards saw the emperor and his men coming out, they tightly protected them in the middle. Captain He led the way in front and slowly retreated to a safe place.
After passing through here, there is a mountain over there. Although it is not high, there is a concave place at the foot of the mountain, which is just right for them to hide.
Mu Feng, Mu Chen, Chen Nian, and the emperor's four secret guards protected them and slowly retreated to the foot of the mountain.
Fortunately, it was night time and it was pitch black everywhere and they couldn't see clearly, so they were able to reach the foot of the mountain without much effort.
Shen Nian asked the emperor and the adults to hide inside, and asked Xia Tian to hide against the mountain wall as well.
They and the Royal Guards stood in the front with swords in hand for defense.
As long as we guard the front here, we will be safe.
After Captain He sent them over, he went to the front to fight.
Shen Nian knew that if they didn’t kill all the enemies today, they would not be able to escape.
Seeing that there were secret guards and imperial guards guarding this place, he ordered Mu Feng and Muchen, "You two should also go to the front to help. Be careful."
"Yes." The two men agreed and flew away with their swords.
With the help of Mu Feng and Muchen, Captain He's pressure was greatly relieved.
At this moment, more than a dozen Royal Guards were injured, and even more officers and soldiers were injured.
However, the other side also lost more than a dozen people.
Because the other party was carrying a bow and arrow, Captain He was accidentally hit in the left arm by an arrow.
Mu Feng quickly protected him and retreated first, "Master He, how are you?"
"It's okay." Captain He gritted his teeth, cut off the arrow feathers with his sword, and was about to raise the sword again.
Mu Feng stopped him and said, "Master He, go and deal with this first and come back later."
This substance remaining in the body also affects movement.
"No need, I can still do it." Captain He said and went straight in to fight.
The assassins were also very tenacious. Their numbers kept decreasing, but they had no intention of retreating.
It also caused heavy casualties to the Royal Guards.
Captain He looked at the Royal Guards who kept falling down, and chopped them with red eyes.
After a while, he could no longer lift his injured left arm, and blood kept dripping down the sleeve of his clothes.
Mu Feng couldn't bear to watch this, so he pulled him out and directly took him back to the emperor by the back of his neck.
"What's going on?" Shen Nian came over to check.
"Lord He is injured." Mu Feng said, and went straight to the front.
Xia Tian hurried over from the mountain wall, took out the golden wound medicine from his sleeve, and handed it to Chen Nian, "Use this."
Shen Nian handed the medicine bottle to Doctor Xu again, "You come and deal with Captain He, I'll go to the front."
Even Captain He was injured, which shows how powerful the person who came is.
Captain He was able to sit on the position of captain of the Imperial Guards, so his martial arts skills must be among the best.
He actually fell into their trap, which shows that the person who came was determined to die if he failed.
After saying this, he worriedly reminded everyone, "Be sure to protect the emperor."
Everyone nodded.
"Brother Shen, be careful." Xia Tian quickly instructed.
"Well, don't worry." Shen Nian glanced at her and flew away.
Captain He saw that Shen Nian had passed away, and urged Doctor Xu to bandage him quickly.
After Doctor Xu finished bandaging the wound, he went back to the front.
The emperor saw her still standing outside looking at Shen Nian's back, and reminded her, "Mrs. Shen, please come over here. It's not safe over there."
