The soft beauty is so good at teasing, the villain prince asks for a kiss

"Mother of the evening."

The man revealed her identity as a woman. Wanniang was horrified and kept backing away, holding onto the wall. "What on earth do you want to do?"

"Don't you know what you want to do? We didn't want to kill you, but you were determined to oppose us. In this case, don't blame us for being ruthless!"

The people blocking the alley suddenly quickened their pace.

Wanniang kicked up the snow on the ground violently, and the moment her skirt was lifted up, a cloud of snow mist arose, making it impossible for people to open their eyes.

The killer paused for a moment, and Wanniang seized the opportunity to turn around and run.

"Whoosh-"

The wind was filled with the sound of her heavy breathing and messy footsteps.

"Help! Someone, help!"

She shouted at the top of her lungs, and the lights in several houses came on. Wanniang faintly heard voices, someone was asking what happened, but then the voices returned to silence.

Someone opened the door and closed it again.

The killer sneered, "Who will come to save you? Don't dream, just surrender! I can still leave your body intact for the sake of our past friendship!"

She bent her fingers and blew a whistle, and suddenly a group of people jumped out from the darkness in all directions.

Wanniang's pupils trembled violently and her heart was filled with sadness. Is she really going to die here today?

But she was so unwilling!

She hadn't seen the person she wanted to see, nor had she said what she wanted to say. How could she die in such an unclear manner?

If she died, who would she avenge?

Her body was so stiff that she could hardly move, her lungs and throat felt like they were on fire, her heart was beating fast and heavy, she could hardly breathe, her vision was blacking out, and she seemed like she would collapse at any moment, but she insisted on running forward with her last breath.

There was a glimmer of light around the corner ahead, and a faint hope rose in Wan Niang's heart again. She shouted with all her might, "Help! Help me! Please—"

She could no longer run, her feet went soft, and she fell directly into a snowdrift, with a mouthful of snow foam in her mouth. The fall made her dizzy.

She turned her head with difficulty and saw the killer approaching quietly from behind.

In desperation, she bit her lower lip, the wound tore, and blood flowed down her lip to her jaw. She grabbed a handful of snow and threw it hard.

The killer dodged by tilting his head, and his sword slowed down for a moment.

In the blink of an eye, a carriage slowly drove around the corner, and the driver shouted, "Who is it?!"

The killer was startled, and someone said, "Quick, kill her!"

The killer drew his sword and stabbed!

Wanniang couldn't help but closed her eyes.

Is there finally no escape?

The expected pain did not come, and the sound of wind in my ears stopped for a moment, and someone groaned.

She opened her eyes in surprise, and saw a dark shadow jump in among the killers and start fighting with them.

"What are you still standing there for? Come here!"

This sound? !

Wanniang was startled and turned her head to see that the curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing Rong Heqing's beautiful and stern face.

Rong Heqing raised her left hand horizontally, with a very delicate sleeve arrow tied to her forearm. She squinted her eyes, aimed at a killer, pulled the trigger, and with a "whoosh", the sleeve arrow shot out, with a bright blue light on the arrowhead.

"what--"

The arrowhead pierced the killer's back directly, and the killer screamed and fell to the ground.

Wan Niang's blood suddenly ran cold, and she quickly got up and stumbled towards the carriage.

When she reached the car window, Rong Heqing immediately threw her a bamboo tube: "Do you know how to use it? There is a pull-wire ring at the bottom. Pull it out with force and point the mouth of the tube toward the sky. Someone will come to rescue us soon."

"Okay!" Wanniang responded in a hoarse voice, pointed at the dark night sky, and pulled the string loop hard. The next moment, there was a "bang" and a red smoke rose with the wind, straight up into the night sky, and there was another "bang".

This sound was bigger and louder than before.

The killers were shocked, "Oh no, they're calling for help!"

"That's it, withdraw!"

They acted decisively, made a feint to force Chu Suifeng to retreat, then turned and ran away.

Chu Suifeng wanted to chase after him, but Rong Heqing said hurriedly, "Don't chase after a desperate enemy. Wait until our reinforcements arrive before chasing after them!"

Hearing this, the killers ran faster and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.

Wanniang's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and she slid down the wall of the car to the ground.

Rong Heqing put down his sleeves and waved to Chu Suifeng, "Hurry up and help her up, let's run--"

Chu Suifeng turned back, picked up his stepmother and threw her into the carriage, then jumped into the front room of the carriage, pulled the reins and shook them hard, "Gee—"

The carriage started running very fast.

Rong Heqing helped the dizzy Wanniang up and poured her a cup of hot tea, "Warm yourself up quickly."

Wan Niang was puzzled, "Why are we running?"

Didn’t you call for help?

Rong Heqing understood her look and whispered, "What reinforcements? The firecrackers I asked you to set off just now were made by me to scare people. They won't bring any reinforcements. The palace is far away from here. No matter how good the guards' ears are, they can't hear them!"

Wan Niang: “???”

999: [Why else would it have to be you? You are really good at playing with people's hearts. ]

Rong Heqing: [Keep a low profile, I've been in the ancient times for a few months, I have to make some progress, right? ]

Wanniang looked at her in a daze. She obviously didn't expect it to be like this. She blinked and said, "Then Guard Chu wanted to chase after him just now..."

"It's just acting. Otherwise, how can they believe that we have help?"

Rong Heqing looked calm.

Wan Niang: "..."

She held the hot tea in her hand and said with emotion after a while: "The princess is really smart."

Recalling something, she looked at Rong Heqing's arm and asked, "Is this hidden arrow poisonous?"

"Yes, ever since I was targeted by a group of mad dogs, I couldn't sleep well at night. After much thought, I asked people to make a bunch of hidden weapons for self-defense, such as poisoned sleeve arrows, poisoned needles, daggers, swords in hairpins, etc. Anyway, basically everything you can see on my body has a mechanism."

Wanniang glanced at her hair full of jewels and jade and fell silent.

999: [Host, you are not a human being at all. You are clearly a humanoid killer. ]

Rong Heqing took a sip of tea, [Haha, if you weren't useless, why would I be so cautious? ]

999: […]

Okay, it deserves to be scolded.

It's offline!

Rong Heqing ignored her broken voice and turned around to look at his stepmother carefully.

After rolling in the snow just now, Stepmother was in a very miserable state. The exposed skin was red from the cold, her hair was messy and covered with broken snow, and her coarse cotton coat was soaked by the melted snow, with deep and shallow spots on it.

Fearing that she would catch a cold, Rong Heqing took a blanket from the side and covered her with it. Wanniang dodged and said, "No, I'm dirty."

"Then take off your outer clothes. They're all wet anyway, and you'll catch a cold easily if you keep them on."

Rong Heqing took out a jacket from the secret compartment and said, "This is my spare clothes, it's clean, you can make do with it."

She was as friendly as ever, and didn't ask her why she left without saying a word, nor did she ask her how she had provoked the killer.

If she hadn't shot that arrow in time, she would have died by now!

With grief overflowing from her heart, Wanniang burst into sobs as soon as she unbuttoned her clothes, then stood up and knelt down facing Rong Heqing.

"Princess, you have saved me once again. I cannot repay you enough for your kindness. Please accept my greetings!"
