Rebirth of Her Royal Highness the Princess

The assassin raised his knife and stabbed the bed fiercely. However, he hit nothing, and there was only an empty quilt on the bed.

"What?!" The assassin was shocked. He had never expected that Hua Xiulan would not be in bed.

At this time, Hua Xiulan rushed out from behind the door curtain, holding a wooden stick in her hand, and smashed towards the assassin.

The assassin dodged sideways and then engaged in a fierce fight with Hua Xiulan.

Although Hua Xiulan is very skilled, she is ultimately no match for the assassin and gradually falls into a disadvantage.

At the critical moment, a figure swooped down from the eaves and landed as lightly as a cicada's wing.

He ran towards the assassin, his legs tightened, and his feet twisted suddenly with force. There was a sound of bone cracking, and it seemed that several of the man's ribs were broken. Without waiting for the assassin to catch his breath, he kicked him again. The assassin trembled and fell to the ground, his body slid on the ground, and flew out until he hit the wall.

Hua Xiulan stared at the assassin with wide eyes, her knife flashing coldly, tightly on his neck. Her voice was cold and firm: "Tell me! Who sent you?" The assassin was so scared that he trembled all over, but he still clenched his teeth and said nothing.

A figure appeared beside Hua Xiulan like a ghost. The person was tall, wearing a black robe fluttering in the wind, and a mask on his face, so his real face could not be seen. Hua Xiulan was delighted, knowing that this unknown hero had saved her life again.

She turned around and said to the nameless hero gratefully: "Thank you for your help. If you hadn't helped me in time, I would have died." The nameless hero nodded slightly, indicating that Hua Xiulan didn't need to be polite. His eyes were deep and calm, as if everything was under his control.

Hua Xiulan took a deep breath and continued to interrogate the assassin: "If you don't answer, don't blame me for being ruthless!" The assassin's face turned pale as paper, and cold sweat dripped on his forehead. The assassin's eyes flickered, and finally he lowered his head and said softly: "It was... General Shen who sent me." Hua Xiulan was shocked. She didn't expect that it was Shen Liangjun who wanted to kill her. "Why did Shen Liangjun do this? I have no grudges against him." Hua Xiulan questioned. The assassin hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "I don't know..." Hua Xiulan frowned, she knew that her current situation was very dangerous. "It's not advisable to stay here for a long time, let's leave as soon as possible." The nameless hero interrupted their conversation. Hua Xiulan nodded, then looked at the assassin, "I will not let go of today's matter, one day I will make Shen Liangjun pay the price!" After that, she raised her knife and ended the assassin's life. The nameless hero took Hua Xiulan out of the temple under the cover of night and disappeared in the vast rain.

"What are you going to do next?" The voice of the nameless hero rang out in the rain.

Hua Xiulan gritted her teeth and said, "I'm going to find Shen Liangjun and ask him clearly! Why did he want to kill me?"

The nameless hero was silent for a moment, "I'm afraid this trip will be full of dangers."

"I know, but I have to find out the truth." Hua Xiulan said firmly.

The nameless hero looked at her with a glimmer of appreciation in his eyes, "Okay, I'll go with you."

The two set off together towards the direction of Shen's residence. Along the way, Hua Xiulan was in a heavy mood, while the nameless hero remained alert.

When they arrived at the Shen Mansion, they found that it was heavily guarded.

"It seems that Shen Liangjun is already on guard." The nameless hero whispered.

Hua Xiulan clenched the knife in her hand and said, "I will go in no matter what."

The nameless hero nodded and said, "Be careful."

They sneaked into the Shen Mansion quietly, looking for Shen Liangjun's whereabouts.
