The two men never expected that Xiao Yunxi would be so strong-willed that she would rather die than be captured and jumped off the cliff decisively.

They rushed to the edge of the cliff and looked down, but saw nothing.

Although the mountain is not high, there are many rocks below and a fast and dangerous river.

If Xiao Yunxi and the others jumped down like this, they would be in great danger of death.

"What should we do now? If Xiao Yunxi is forced to death, let alone Mo Ruochen, that mad dog, Xie Yuanfeng can just mount his horse and kill us.

Don't forget, that woman killed the old, the weak, women and children, and she massacred several cities of our Beidi back then.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of fierce fighting coming from behind.

When the two turned around, they saw a group of secret guards in black clothes rushing towards them. All the black-clad men they brought fell down in no time.

Mo Ruochen didn't see Xiao Yunxi. He was holding a bloody sword and looking at them with red eyes.

"Where is my princess?"

Ying Yi and Ying Qi stepped forward quickly and kicked the two men's legs in half.

They were sweating profusely from the pain, but they bit their lips tightly and refused to speak.

Mo Ruochen used his sword to strike one of them, and said in a grim tone: "Tell me, where is the princess?"

The man looked at the cliff tremblingly and did not dare to speak.

Mo Ruochen bit his back teeth and said, "You mean, Princess..."

"She jumped down on her own! We didn't force her!"

The man was really scared this time. Not only did he fail to catch Xiao Yunxi, but he also completely pissed off Mo Ruochen.

He wanted to say a few more words to beg for mercy, but Mo Ruochen kicked him down, "Break his bones piece by piece!"

As Mo Ruochen spoke, he stood up and was about to jump off the cliff.

Yingyi quickly grabbed Mo Ruochen.

Ever since Congying heard that the princess had jumped off a cliff, he has been closely watching the prince's every move.

He has always been by Mo Ruochen's side and knows too well the position of the princess in the prince's heart.

Mo Ruochen had lost all his rationality, "Get out of my way! I want to go find the princess, she is afraid of the cold and the dark!"

Ying Qi and Ying Jiu also quickly knelt in front of Mo Ruochen, holding Mo Ruochen's legs tightly to prevent him from moving forward.

"Your Majesty! The princess will be fine. Your subordinates will go down to the bottom of the cliff to look for her!

The war is at a critical juncture now, you can't afford to get into trouble!

The princess has always been righteous, she would never want to see you ignore the stability of Dali and the safety of the people in the border town for her!"

Mo Ruochen clenched his fists, veins bulged on his forehead, but he still walked forward.

He didn't care about so many things now. He only knew that the lady who loved to laugh, make noises and act coquettishly was right under the cliff.

She was waiting for him to rescue her.

How could he let her down?

The three secret guards kneeling in front were unable to stop Mo Ruochen's steps.

Ying Yi had no choice but to say, "Your Majesty, I will take people down to find the princess. We will go down the rope from here, and it will be quick."

“Your Majesty, the princess is quite skilled and will definitely find a way to save herself.

She must be at the bottom of the cliff waiting for you to rescue her.

If you jump down now, not only will you fail to save the princess, but you might even lose your own life.

If the princess returns safely and finds that you are gone to save her, what should she do? "

These words made Mo Ruochen pause and stop in his tracks.

Yingyi knew that it was useless to talk to the prince about the interests of the country and family at this moment.

The secret guards quickly brought a few ropes and tied them to a tree three meters thick at the edge of the cliff.

Wei Wuxian grabbed a rope and climbed down first.

Ying Yi followed closely behind, and the other secret guards also went down the cliff one after another.

Xiao Yunxi was awakened by the cold. She saw many vines below the cliff.

So when they jumped down, she and Xia He grabbed the vines.

Although the speed of his fall was slowed down, one of his legs was broken when he fell to the ground.

Xiao Yunxi looked up and saw that the mountain was really high. If it weren't for these vines, she would have been smashed into a pulp.

She moved her legs and was instantly struck by a piercing pain.

Xiao Yunxi looked around and saw Xia He fainted three meters away. She dragged her painful broken leg and crawled towards Xia He.

"Xia He! Xia He!"

Xiao Yunxi gently patted Xia He's face and shouted loudly.

"Ahem," Xia He finally opened her eyes, "Princess...Princess."

"It's me. We're still alive."

Xiao Yunxi's eyes were red, "Can you still get up? We have to leave here immediately."

Xia He relaxed, turned over and sat up. Apart from some pain in her back, everything else was fine.

"Princess, your legs!"

"broken."

Xia He supported her waist and stood up, "There is a branch over there, please wait a moment, I will go get it."

Xia He took back the branch, broke it, unbuttoned her coat, tore it into strips, and fixed Xiao Yunxi's legs firmly.

Xiao Yunxi was sweating coldly from the pain, and she cursed all the ancestors of those Beidi people in her heart.

"Princess, the sun is about to set. We need to leave here as soon as possible."

Not only were they worried that the Northern Di people would chase them, but they were also worried about the wild beasts that would come out to look for food at night.

It's impossible that he didn't die at the hands of the enemy but instead became food for the wolves of Dali.

Xiao Yunxi looked into the distance and said, "There is smoke coming from cooking over there, there should be a village, let's go straight over there."

Xia He broke off two more branches to use as crutches for both of them.

With Xia He's help, Xiao Yunxi stood up with difficulty.

The two people moved slowly, relying on each other.

With this distance and speed, it might take until midnight to get there.

"Princess, have you gained some weight recently?"

Xia He panted, "I feel that your waist is getting a little thick."

Xiao Yunxi was sweating profusely from the pain and nodded, "Yes, not only have I gained weight, but I also gained a piece of meat."

She touched her belly and smiled.

Xia He was shocked at first, and then she was scared. The princess was really brave!

"Xia He, don't be afraid. We are lucky. We only broke one leg after jumping from such a high place. We will definitely be able to turn the danger into safety."

Xia He didn't say anything, and her hand around Xiao Yunxi's waist became more careful.

No matter what happens, she must protect the princess!

In this way, the two men limped along, stopping and starting, and after an unknown amount of time, they finally arrived at a village.

When Mo Ruochen got down to the bottom of the cliff, he searched everywhere for a long time, but there was no trace of Xiao Yunxi.

"Princess, there is a torch light behind us, could it be the prince and Yingyi and the others?"

"Maybe, but it could also be those people from Beidi."

Xiao Yunxi looked back and said, "Let's go into the village first and take a short rest."

It would be best if Mo Ruochen comes, but if not, at least we have to eat our fill before we set off.

After all, starving ghosts are too ugly.

They walked to a house at the outermost part of the village and knocked on the door.

After a while, a woman came out.

Xia He bowed respectfully, "Grandma, my master is injured. Please let us rest for a while and drink some water, okay?"

The woman looked at the two little girls, who were in a miserable state, and hurried forward to lend a hand, helping Xiao Yunxi in. She then called her son to ask the doctor next door to come over.

"Please sit down first. I'll go get you a cup of hot water to keep the cold away."
