Chapter 388 Favor
Seeing Chu Fei and Chu Cong carrying silk grass and vanilla on their backs, Xia Zihan looked at Ao Tianchen and said, "Little prince, my two maids are seriously injured, so I'll take my leave first." With Capt. Li and the officials here, These assassins are no longer enough.
"I'm afraid things won't be that easy." Ao Tianchen said lightly, "I have a hunch, it seems... the danger is not over yet."
What's the meaning?
Xia Zihan's heart tightened.
Suddenly, she heard crying, "Brother Wang, run away quickly... Chu Yu, leave quickly..."
Go by reputation...
A dozen or so officials were desperately trying to protect Princess Qinghui and Princess Mingzhu as they ran this way. Behind them, a group of masked men in black were flying with big swords in their hands. Every time they swung the sword, one of the officials was injured. , blood flying.
Xia Zihan's eyes narrowed and he quickly ordered Chu Cong and Chu Fei, "You guys take the young prince away quickly, I will stop them."
How to stop more than a dozen men in black?
"Little master, we are not leaving." Chu Fei's eyes were red.
Silicao, who was still a little conscious, said feebly, "Chu Cong, let me down quickly, and you will protect the county master and leave, quickly..."
Chu Congzhen put down the silk grass and said to Xia Zihan, "County Master, you and the young prince go first. Chu Fei and I will stop them."
"Don't say anything. If you don't leave, it will be too late. Please leave quickly..."
Saying that, Xia Zihan jumped into the crowd of men in black.
Chu Xing and Chu Fei's eyes were splitting, "Little master..."
Chu Fei said coldly, "Whether it's life or death, I will accompany the master. My life is cheap, and death is not a pity, but nothing can happen to the master. If something happens to the master, I will not be able to apologize even if I die."< br>
After saying that, Chu Fei put down the vanilla and said, "I'm sorry."
"Go and protect the county owner." Vanilla said with a tearful smile, "We must protect the county owner and don't let anything happen to her."
She was very happy that at this critical moment of life and death, Chu Cong and Chu Fei did not abandon the county lord, but chose to live and die with the county lord.
Chu Fei had a cold face, hummed, then picked up a big knife, raised his breath, and flew away with Xia Zihan.
Chu Cang followed closely behind without saying a word.
In her eyes, the young prince is nothing, not as important as a hair of her master's head.
What does the life and death of the young prince have to do with her?
Her duty is to protect her master, not to abandon her master to protect the young prince.
The footsteps of a group of men in black were stopped by Xia Zihan and his three servants, giving Princess Qinghui, Princess Mingzhu and Princess Mingzhu some time to breathe.
The two of them hurriedly ran to Ao Tianchen. Princess Qinghui said, "I'll help Brother Wang. You go and see Master Hou."
Hou Ji was seriously injured and had long been unconscious. He and Concubine Yu were thrown into the corner by the gate of Baiweiju by Chu and Cong.
Princess Mingzhu scanned around and found him.
By chance, Li Captou and others were at the gate of Beiweiju. The fight was fierce, with swords and swords flashing, and blood splattering everywhere. Princess Mingzhu rushed over, and her little face turned pale with fright after just one look.
She just wanted to save Hou Ji, but she didn't have the guts to do so.
"My injuries are more serious, it's more important to save me first." She couldn't let anyone know that she risked her cousin's life because of her cowardice.
One person helped Ao Tianchen to hide under a window, which was the window of the teahouse next door.
"Sister-in-law, see if the window is open?" Princess Qinghui asked.
Princess Mingzhu pushed lightly, and the window was pushed open. The two women smiled at each other and hurriedly got Ao Tianchen in. Princess Mingzhu wanted to follow closely, but Princess Qinghui glanced at her.
Princess Mingzhu's heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously retracted her extended hand.
Yes, this is her sister-in-law. In a critical moment, she can ignore her cousin's life or death, but she cannot compete with her sister-in-law for life.
What's more, those assassins were entangled by Capt. Li and Xia Zihan, and they couldn't be taken care of for a while.
Maybe, there is still time?
When Princess Qinghui saw that Princess Mingzhu knew her, she snorted and climbed in through the window.
Princess Mingzhu saw her crawling in, and started to scramble in. As soon as she climbed onto the window sill, a big knife suddenly flew over and plunged straight into Princess Mingzhu's back.
She screamed in pain, fell off the window sill, and lay at the feet of Princess Qinghui.
Seeing a big knife stuck in her back, Princess Qinghui and Ao Tianchen were both shocked.
……
Today's assassination had been planned long ago, but the person behind the scenes did not expect that Xia Zihan would inadvertently interfere with the assassination that had been planned for many days.
Xia Zihan entered the private room late. The bowls and chopsticks were added later. There was no poison on the bowl rims. The bowls and chopsticks used by Ao Tianchen and others had been poisoned on the rims before they entered the private room.
There was also sauced venison, which was also poisoned. Xia Zihan was bent on eating monkey brains, and before he could eat the sauced venison, Concubine Yu, who was jealous of her at the time, ate the most, and was the first to suffer from the poison. , the poisoning is also the deepest.
Chu Xing and the others were maids, not qualified to serve, and they didn't even have the chance to be poisoned.
Today, thanks to Chu Zong and the other four, Xia Zihan was able to rescue Ao Tianchen and others from many assassins. However, now, Ao Tianchen and others are safe, and Xia Zihan, master and servant, are still fighting with the assassins.
Fortunately, Capt. Li and a dozen other officials were here. They worked hard and finally managed to draw a tie with the man in black.
Fortunately, there were no more people in black, otherwise they would really die here.
After a cup of tea, Hua Snake flew over from the backyard of Baiweiju with twelve secret guards and a dozen secret guards from the Second Prince's Mansion.
Their faces were filled with evil spirits and bloodlust, and the smell of blood on their bodies was extremely strong. You can imagine what kind of wonderful fight they experienced in the backyard.
Chu Jingqi left Xia Zihan with twenty secret guards, eight of whom died and one was seriously injured. However, the twenty secret guards of the Second Prince's Palace died even more, with thirteen dead and two seriously injured.
If it weren't for Xia Zihan's secret guards, I'm afraid all the twenty secret guards in the Second Prince's Mansion would have died.
With Hua She and others joining in, the assassins at the entrance of Beiweiju were quickly killed by dozens of them, and Capt. Li left three alive.
However, before being interrogated, the assassin bit the poisonous naan embedded in the root of his tooth and died.
The secret guard leader of the Second Prince's Mansion searched around and found only the unconscious figures of Hou Ji and Concubine Yu, as well as the bodies of Princess Qinghui's two maids. However, they did not see Ao Tianchen and Princess Qinghui Mingzhu. The figures of the three princesses.
A cold sweat broke out from his back, and he asked Xia Zihan tremblingly, "County Master Chuyu, do you know where our little prince, princess and princess have gone?"
"In the teahouse, the young prince is injured. Go and have a look." Xia Zihan said.
At that time, when Princess Mingzhu was hit by a knife, Xia Zihan was focused on fighting the assassin and did not see the scene and did not know that Princess Mingzhu was injured.
Seeing the four or five secret guards from the Second Prince's Mansion rushing to the teahouse, Xia Zihan also hurriedly looked for silk grass and vanilla.
Chu Cong saw Silk Grass and Vanilla behind the tree. They were already unconscious due to lack of physical strength.
"Master, the silk grass and vanilla are here." Chu Xang called.
Xia Zihan hurriedly walked over and took their pulses.
The pulse is weak and the internal energy is disturbed, so you need to be treated quickly.
"Hua She." She called Hua She who was checking the assassin and said, "There is our carriage in the backyard of the tea house. You can send someone to drive it over. We have to go back quickly."
When the secret guard drove over in a carriage, Chu Cong and Chu Fei jumped on the carriage one by one.
When Xia Zihan was about to get on the carriage, he saw brother and sister Ao Tianchen being helped out of the teahouse by secret guards. Princess Mingzhu, who was lying on a table and being carried out by two secret guards, was unconscious. Let Xia Zihan Zi Han was shocked that there was a big knife stuck in her back.
When Ao Tianchen saw that she was leaving, he came over.
Xia Zihan pointed at Princess Mingzhu, "She is Princess Mingzhu?"
"It didn't hurt any vital parts, and the knife didn't go deep. It'll be fine."
Xia Zihan said oh and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing Princess Mingzhu with a knife stuck in her back and her face as white as snow, I thought...
Ao Tianchen's eyes were filled with tenderness, and he said warmly, "Thanks to you and your maid, Qinghui Mingzhu and I were able to escape the disaster. I will come to thank you for saving my life another day."
"There's no need to thank you. Just think of it as you owe me a favor." People can't be saved in vain, and they still have to ask for the kindness they deserve.
Just like last time.
He glanced at the wound on his shoulder again and saw that the wound was open and blood was flowing out, so he quickly said, "The young prince's wound needs to be treated quickly to avoid infection, so I will... take a step first."
It wasn't until the Chu family's carriage had gone far that Ao Tianchen murmured, "I haven't paid back those few favors last time, so I owe a few more..."
Last time, she rescued the three of them, mother and son, and he owed her three favors. But this time, she rescued four people from the Second Prince's Mansion, plus Hou Ji, which was another five favors.
Eight favors.
If we owe a few more debts and it is not finished in this life, will we still have to pay them back in the next life?
If...if it was true, then he was willing to owe her a hundred favors.
If this life is not over, then you will continue to pay it back in the next life. If it is not over in the next life, then you will continue to pay it off in the next life until it is over.
Then he will definitely owe her more favors. In this way, will the two of them be tied together for the rest of their lives?
When Princess Qinghui saw Ao Tianchen standing still, she thought his wound was in severe pain. When she got closer, she saw his obsessed eyes, staring blankly at the carriage going away.
She sighed and couldn't bear to regain his consciousness, "Brother Wang, your wound is open, you have to go back quickly... let's go."
"Qinghui, you said..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Ao Tianchen fell silent and looked at the unconscious Princess Mingzhu.
No chance, no chance in this life, unless...
"Brother Wang, Chu Yu is very good, but...she already has Chu Jingqi." Princess Qinghui said softly, seemingly sensing Ao Tianchen's thoughts.
"Brother Wang, your face is so pale. It's better to go back and ask the imperial doctor to take a look. And Sister-in-law Wang, she is seriously injured, so she needs to pull out the knife quickly."
