Chapter 247: Wake up, don't let the prince down
After Lin Miaoyin finished speaking, she lay down on the couch and fell asleep.
Beigong You looked at the closed door and sat outside all night.
By the next day, his eyes were bloodshot.
Soon after dawn, there was movement in the yard, and soon the smell of rice could be smelled.
The person who came to deliver food this morning was Aunt Xie. As soon as she saw Beigong You, she knelt down and said, "Mr. Bei, this is all our fault. We shouldn't have had any improper thoughts about you. Please be magnanimous and don't bother with us. From now on, I won't let Hong'er come over, and I won't ask for your wages..."
"Get up."
Beigong You fixed his eyes on the lunch box in Aunt Xie's hand and ordered in a hoarse voice, "Put it in the pot to warm it up first. Madam hasn't gotten up yet. Wait until she does before eating."
Aunt Xie was stunned for a moment, then she realized that Beigong You did not blame her, and she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"...Oh, yes, I'll go right away." She hurriedly took the lunch box and went to the kitchen to light a fire.
About half an hour later, Lin Miaoyin woke up.
She cursed to her heart's content last night, and the depressed anger that had been pent up in her chest dissipated. Her heart suddenly felt empty, and she slept comfortably.
Wake up feeling refreshed.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Beigong Youju standing outside with a tired face.
Looking at the dark circles under his eyes, it looked like he hadn't slept all night.
After the incident of pretending to be sick, Lin Miaoyin no longer had any sympathy for him and just walked right past him.
Whether he was just trying to make himself suffer or he really couldn't sleep, it had nothing to do with her.
They hadn't spoken a word since morning, and the whole courtyard was filled with a cold and depressing atmosphere. Even Aunt Xie, who was working in the yard, noticed the alienation and estrangement between the two.
She thought the discord between the couple was caused by Hong'er, and she was always worried.
“Knock knock knock…”
There was an urgent knock on the door, and her tense heartstrings suddenly tightened. As if she had been greatly frightened, her body suddenly jumped up from the stone bench.
As he walked over to open the door, he asked, "Who is it?"
As soon as she removed the bolt, the door was kicked open by someone and she was kicked to the ground behind the door.
Looking at the men in black rushing in, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
"The person is here, go in and search!"
In the room, before Lin Miaoyin could react, the man next door rushed into her room and grabbed her hand, "Follow me!"
"What are you doing?" She frowned and subconsciously pushed the man away.
"There is danger, let's leave now!" Beigong You didn't bother to explain and pulled her out.
Lin Miaoyin sneered, "Danger? Don't tell me the assassin has found this place. Why is it that Prince Ning has run out of tricks and is now resorting to such a clumsy trick?"
"I didn't lie to you." Beigong You said seriously.
As he spoke, he led the people out of the room. Just as they were about to leave, the black-clad assassins who rushed in from the gate blocked their way.
His eyes tightened, he grabbed Lin Miaoyin's waist and ordered in a deep voice: "Hold me tight, I'll take you up!"
Seeing the men in black rushing into the yard, Lin Miaoyin originally thought that Beigong You was acting, but when they surrounded them with long knives in hand, she realized that these assassins were real!
"Prince Ning is so hard to find!" The man in the lead had a cruel look in his eyes and he slashed towards Beigong You with a long knife.
"Your Highness, be careful!" Guyu arrived in time and took the knife for Beigong You.
Beigong You's pupils suddenly shrank, "Take the princess away immediately!"
"No, let's go together!" Guyu gritted his teeth and fought with the man in black, trying his best to protect Beigong You and Lin Miaoyin behind him.
Two hands were no match for four punches. Even though he had great martial arts skills, he still had a hard time facing a yard full of black-clad assassins.
Soon, he was at a disadvantage and was severely stabbed in the shoulder.
The smell of blood soon filled the air.
"Guyu!" Lin Miaoyin exclaimed.
Although she didn't like Beigong You, she had a good impression of Guyu and the others. After spending so much time together, she had already considered them her own people. Now that she saw him injured, she was naturally nervous and worried.
"Damn it!" Guyu gritted his teeth and attacked the man in black fiercely.
If they had not entangled Frost in advance, the two of them would have been able to escort the prince and princess away safely.
"Their target is me. You should take the princess away quickly, otherwise none of us can leave." Beigong You instructed Guyu while punching the assassin with his fist.
Looking at Beigong You who was struggling, Guyu clenched his lips.
"Princess, let's go!" He seemed to have made up his mind, and without any hesitation, he hurried to Lin Miaoyin.
Now that he was injured, he could only escort one person away. The prince was right, either they had to protect the princess, or they would all die!
He couldn't let the prince down.
"Thank you." Lin Miaoyin raised her foot and followed Guyu away.
"I'm sorry, Princess." Guyu supported Lin Miaoyin and brought her to the roof.
Just as he was about to leave, Beigong You in the yard was injured, and the bright red blood dyed his bandaged clothes red.
When Lin Miaoyin saw this scene, the soft spot in her heart was suddenly pierced.
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and go!" Beigong You urged anxiously, but his concentration was distracted for only a moment and he was hit hard on the back and flew out.
"Beigong You!" Lin Miaoyin's heartstrings suddenly tightened.
Beigong You struggled to get up from the ground, blood flowing from the corners of his mouth, it was a shocking sight.
He crawled towards the man in black step by step, hugged him tightly, and used all his strength to look up and shout to Lin Miaoyin, "Go! Go quickly!"
Lin Miaoyin couldn't just turn a blind eye, so she immediately urged Guyu to go down and save people.
Guyu couldn't bear to watch Beigong You being killed, so he jumped off the roof and saved Beigong You from the blade.
"You're looking for death!" His behavior completely angered the black-clad assassin.
They immediately gathered their forces and aimed at Lin Miaoyin on the roof. "Since King Ning is so ungrateful, why don't we give him a big gift!"
"Stop!" Beigong You's eyes narrowed, and he immediately gathered all his strength and rushed to the roof to block the fatal blow for Lin Miaoyin.
As a blood flower bloomed before his eyes, the man's body fell limply.
"Your Highness!" Mai Dong had just led his men in when he saw this scene. His heart sank to the bottom of the valley in an instant.
"Protect, protect the princess..." Beigong You said this and closed his eyes.
"Beigong You!" Lin Miaoyin subconsciously reached out to grab him, but caught nothing. She watched Beigong You fall heavily to the ground.
Looking at the blood beneath him, she suddenly felt dizzy.
"Princess!" She only heard Maidong's urgent call and then lost consciousness.
I don't know how much time passed, but when I woke up again, Yuzhu, Dingxiang, Mrs. Sun, Aunt Zhang and others were all gathered around her bed with worried looks on their faces.
"Miss!" Yuzhu cried with joy.
"Buddha bless you, the princess has finally woken up!" Aunt Zhang and others also had tears in their eyes when they saw her open her eyes.
