Wu Yaohui gave a few instructions to the men in black around him. Zhao Moyan, who was behind him, caught up at this time. Wu Yaohui grabbed Tian Yu and pulled her in front of him, laughing and saying, "You're pretty fast! He's here to save you!"
"What do you want to do?" Tian Yu asked hurriedly, sensing something was wrong.
"You'll find out soon enough. Don't worry, I won't kill you," Wu Yaohui said with a wicked smile, but Tian Yu broke out in a cold sweat.
At this moment, several men in black stepped forward and started fighting with Zhao Moyan. Just as Zhao Moyan and his group were about to finish off the men in black, Zhao Moyan stood opposite them and said, "I'll give you one more chance to let her go!"
"Let her go!? If I die today, she must die with me!" Wu Yaohui said, holding a dagger to Tian Yu's neck.
"Your Highness, run! He won't kill me, you all have to leave!" Tian Yu shouted.
Zhao Moyan refused to leave and looked at Tian Yu, saying, "Wu Yaohui! She's not Tian Yu! She doesn't have what you want. Let her go!"
"No? If not, then why are you so nervous?"
"She's innocent! If you have a problem, come at me, don't hurt her!"
Tian Yu looked at Zhao Moyan opposite her, thinking that he cared about her so much. But the knife at her neck reminded her that the situation was dangerous. Since they refused to leave, Tian Yu said calmly, "Your Highness, you don't need to worry about me. I don't belong here. Take action now!"
"Speak again, and I'll kill you right now!" Wu Yaohui said in a low voice.
"You killed his wife, you killed so many people, you should have died long ago! Now even if I die, it's worth it! Your Highness, please do it!" Tian Yu said fearlessly.
Zhao Moyan stood there motionless. At this moment, more men in black arrived, clearly prepared to kill him. They surrounded Zhao Moyan. Seeing his opportunity, Wu Yaohui pushed aside Tian Yu, took a sword from one of the men in black, and thrust it at Zhao Moyan. Tian Yu shouted, "Watch out!" Zhao Moyan dodged, trembling several times. Surrounded by multiple attackers, including Wu Yaohui, he was clearly at a disadvantage. He retreated a few steps and knelt on one knee. Seeing this, Wu Yaohui swung his sword at him. Tian Yu, who had already stood up, slowly approached them. The moment she saw Zhao Moyan kneel, she frantically ran towards him. Just as Wu Yaohui was about to stab Zhao Moyan, Tian Yu sprinted and slid to her knees in front of him, blocking Wu Yaohui's sword. Wu Yaohui was surprised but didn't stop, piercing Tian Yu's left chest with his sword. Zhao Moyan looked up at Tian Yu, blood flowing from his pierced chest.
Tian Yu was glad she had made it in time. She reached out and touched the blood that was flowing out, smiled sweetly at Zhao Moyan, and then said painfully, "It hurts so much!"
Wu Yaohui immediately drew his sword. Tian Yu screamed, and countless images flashed before her eyes. Tian Yu seemed to suddenly remember something and whispered, "Mr. Zhao! It hurts so much!"
Then, her eyes closed, and she fainted from the pain. Zhao Moyan held Tian Yu's fallen body, his whole body trembling. Hearing her cries broke his heart. He reached out and patted Tian Yu's face, saying, "Tian Yu, wake up! What did you say! Say it again!" Zhao Moyan thought he had misheard, unable to believe what he was hearing. But he knew that only Tian Yu would call him that. Looking at Tian Yu lying in his arms, Zhao Moyan was on the verge of collapse. Who could tell him what was going on? Who was she?
When Prince Wu and Li Yong arrived with their troops, they saw Zhao Moyan carrying Tian Yu, covered in blood. They exchanged a glance, and Zhao Moyan silently picked up Tian Yu and rode away. Li Yong, though he had heard about Tian Yu on his way here, was still shocked to see her in his brother's arms. His brother's eyes told him that regardless of whether this Tian Yu was real or not, it was too late. Under Prince Wu's command, the men in black were all wiped out, but Wu Yaohui escaped wounded.
Zhao Moyan, the Prince of Zhenbei, carried the injured Tian Yu straight to his bedroom. The steward, Qiuju, seeing this, quickly ordered the servants to prepare hot water and gauze. Tangyuan, seeing Tian Yu covered in blood, turned pale. Xuan Yu had already gone to fetch Li Xingyun, who, along with his parents who had just arrived in the capital, had come. Looking at the seriously injured Tian Yu lying on the bed, the Li father and son shook their heads. The wound was too close to her heart; it was very dangerous!
Inside the room, Zhao Moyan ripped open Tian Yu's clothes at the chest. Seeing the wound still bleeding profusely, he personally took the gauze from Qiu Ju and applied medicine to stop the bleeding. Li Xingyun told everyone to leave, leaving only Qiu Ju and his father. The three of them busied themselves in the room for a while. The others, who had been driven out, were too frightened to utter a sound as they watched basin after basin of blood being carried out. Tang Yuan tightly gripped Zhao Moyan's hand, and Zhao Moyan didn't let go. He squeezed Tang Yuan's hand back and whispered, "Don't worry, your mother will be alright!"
Tangyuan stared at Zhao Moyan with wide eyes. This was the first time her father had agreed that she was her mother. Had her mother remembered, or had her father finally figured it out? Although she was still worried, Tangyuan felt much warmer inside.
"Go and lock Xiaotian up first!" Zhao Moyan suddenly remembered and instructed the butler, who acknowledged the order and withdrew.
As darkness fell, the father and son, who had been working frantically inside, finally wiped the sweat from their brows and stepped out of the room, relieved.
"How is the situation?" Zhao Moyan asked anxiously.
"His life has been saved for now. If he can make it through tonight, there's still hope!" Li Xingyun said, looking at his father.
“This girl looks a lot like my goddaughter, but she’s in better health. She should be able to pull through. Take good care of her and don’t be careless!” Li Yun said.
Zhao Moyan, who was still confused, was struck by Li Yun's words. He wondered if she really wasn't Tian Yu. But why did she call him that? They looked so alike!
