She is a heartthrob who wants to live a good life

Chapter 90: The Scheming Princess 47

Shen Weicang pretended to sigh in sorrow: "I also hope that brother King Jing will not act impulsively because of me."

Seeing his beloved's sad face, Feng Sheng felt sad too: "Don't worry, Madam, I will do my best to persuade Your Majesty to show mercy to King Jing's men."

Shen Weicang forced a smile: "Thank you, Lord Feng. Lord Feng did this for Chongyu's own good. I'm sure he will understand."

Feng Sheng looked at her earnestly, "I do this for your majesty."

Shen Weicang couldn't understand why Feng Sheng, who always acted loyal to Xiao Chongyu before, suddenly showed loyalty to her?

"Master Feng, you are joking. I have said that I just gave the book as a gift that day. Master Feng was able to be the top scorer in the imperial examination because of his extraordinary talent."

Feng Sheng's appearance is very aggressive, but when facing Shen Weicang, he is always gentle:

"Your Majesty, I fell in love with you the first time I saw you. As long as you want to do something, I will satisfy you."

Shen Weicang raised his eyebrows: "Does this include asking you to betray Xiao Chongyu?"

If it were in the past, Feng Sheng would still hesitate because of Di Zheng and try his best to have the best of both worlds, to satisfy his sweetheart without really hurting Xiao Chongyu.

But now Xiao Chongyu is not the person he should be loyal to, so why should he care about whether he betrays Xiao Chongyu?

However, when the princess asked this question, didn't it prove that she didn't have such deep feelings for Xiao Chongyu?

"As long as it is the Queen's order, no matter what it is, I will not refuse even if I die."

Feng Sheng lowered his head and answered very respectfully and piously.

Shen Weicang smiled silently: "Get up, I won't embarrass you like this, I just asked this."

She walked towards the wing room: "I'm a little tired, let me rest for a while in the wing room."

********************

On the way back to the palace, Xiao Chongyu held Shen Weicang in his arms and kept chattering in the carriage. Shen Weicang really didn't know where he got so much to say to him.

Xiao Chongyu was worried that Shen Weicang would ask about Xiao Chongling, so she tried her best to divert her attention. Not sure if she really fooled her, she never mentioned Xiao Chongling.

Just as he was breathing a sigh of relief, the carriage suddenly shook, and Shen Weicang was jolted in his arms. He was almost asleep when he was suddenly awakened.

"what happened?"

Xiao Chongyu asked unhappily.

"Your Majesty, there are assassins. Please hide in the carriage!"

There are assassins?

Xiao Chongyu and Shen Weicang's expressions changed at the same time.

Who else could the assassin who appeared at this time be except Xiao Chongling's men?

Xiao Chongyu took Shen Weicang out for a trip, but didn't want to be too conspicuous, so he only brought two teams of guards, which added up to no more than twenty people.

Although he was in the carriage, Xiao Chongyu could tell from the sound that there were quite a few assassins.

They didn't dare to attack the carriage, probably because Cang Cang was inside it.

It is not a solution to continue in this stalemate. Besides, swords have no eyes, and it would be bad if Cang Cang was accidentally hurt.

Xiao Chongyu whispered to Shen Weicang, "Cangcang, just wait in the carriage. I will go out and deal with these assassins."

Shen Weicang was about to nod when the carriage suddenly shook violently. The guards outside were fighting with the assassin and accidentally stabbed the horse's leg. The horse felt the pain and ran away.

Shen Weicang was so frightened that his face turned pale: "Chongyu, save me quickly."

Xiao Chongyu hugged her tightly, flew out of the carriage and landed on an open space.

The assassin closest to them exchanged a few glances, looking somewhat embarrassed.

His Highness's order was for them to seriously injure Xiao Chongyu, but now he and the princess are inseparable, how can they completely avoid it during a fight?

They just stood there, staring at Xiao Chongyu hungrily, trying to find an opportunity to attack.

Xiao Chongyu's eyes flashed: "Cang Cang, hide behind me."

As he spoke, he drew his sword and struck the assassin with the tip of his sword.

Several assassins dodged subconsciously, but the sharp sword wind was about to hit one of them in the chest the next moment.

They soon realized that they were no match for Xiao Chongyu, so they gritted their teeth and attacked together. Even if they had to risk their lives today, they would at least ensure that Xiao Chongyu was seriously injured.

Several people attacked Xiao Chongyu from all sides, cooperating with each other tacitly to force Shen Weicang out of the encirclement.

"Chongyu!"

Xiao Chongyu had just dealt with a few people when he heard Shen Weicang calling out to him in surprise, and subconsciously went to her position.

Shen Weicang fell to the ground in a mess, and a man in black was pointing a sword at her.

Xiao Chongyu was so frightened that his soul flew away. Without thinking, he jumped up and stabbed the man in black.

The man in black sensed the strong wind coming from behind him, so he let go of Shen Weicang temporarily and turned around to fight with Xiao Chongyu.

Shen Weicang got up from the ground in shock. Feng Sheng, who was attracted by her cry for help and had just escaped from several assassins, came to protect Shen Weicang with his guards.

Xiao Chongyu quickly killed the man in black, turned back and hugged Shen Weicang: "Don't be afraid, Cangcang, it's okay, I won't let anything happen to you."

He became suspicious. This man in black was obviously not with the other group of assassins. The people sent by Xiao Chongling would not harm Cang Cang.

Shen Weicang had just breathed a sigh of relief when he suddenly saw out of the corner of his eye that another man in black was aiming at him and was about to shoot a hidden arrow.

She subconsciously hugged Xiao Chongyu and turned around, letting him stand in front of her, while burying her head in his chest.

Xiao Chongyu moved to the side again, put his hand on her head, and held her tightly in his arms.

Hearing his muffled groan of pain, Shen Weicang raised his head and opened his eyes wide in surprise.

Xiao Chongyu was shot in the back of the shoulder and his shoulder was slashed by an assassin. Blood quickly dyed his right shoulder and sleeve red, and a strong smell of blood lingered in Shen Weicang's nose.

Seeing that the emperor was injured, the guards around him came over to protect him, and Shen Weicang's secret guards were almost in tears.

Why is it that they can’t catch up every time something happens to the princess?

Just now, Shen Weicang was certain that the people sent by Xiao Chongling would not dare to harm him, so he stayed away and let the secret guards deal with the assassin first.

I didn't expect that someone would be so bold as to attack her. Although she was unharmed, she was inevitably frightened.

Due to excessive blood loss, Xiao Chongyu's face turned pale, and his cheeks were splattered with someone else's blood. He also comforted himself softly: "It's okay, Cang Cang."

Seeing him in such a miserable state, Shen Weicang rarely felt a trace of guilt.

Just now she had intended to let Xiao Chongyu shield herself from the arrow, and she had not expected that there were assassins looking for an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

However, Xiao Chongyu's injury will heal soon. She is not as strong as Xiao Chongyu, so what's wrong with protecting herself?

Shen Weicang tried his best to comfort himself that he had done nothing wrong. His eyes were red, as if he was frightened by Xiao Chongyu's injury: "Chongyu, how are you? You lost a lot of blood."

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Xiao Chongyu raised his hand to wipe her tears, but found blood on his hand, so he had to put it down:

"This injury is nothing to me. The most important thing is that Cang Cang is fine."

Soon the assassins were killed or wounded, and the guards captured three or four men in black.

Seeing that Xiao Chongyu had no intention of dealing with the assassins, Feng Sheng ordered: "Keep these few alive and take them back for a thorough interrogation. Be careful that they don't commit suicide."

These people were wearing the same black clothes, but the assassination order was not issued by the same person. He just wanted to know who wanted to harm the princess.

If he finds out, he will shoot that person through the heart with a thousand arrows.

The original carriage could not be used, and the horse Feng Sheng was riding was nowhere to be found.

Fortunately, Xiao Chongyu's men brought some hemostatic drugs with them. After applying the medicine hastily, the guards found a carriage and he took Shen Weicang into the carriage.
