Dress up as a sickly person to capture the villain princess!

Someone played a dirty trick.

Zhao Changlin used his calves to squeeze the horse's belly.

He held the reins tightly with his hands and endured the pain.

With a quick glance, Zhao Changlin saw several men in black with swords drawn approaching in the distance.

For a moment, the whole street was filled with swords and sabers.

The garrison soldiers with spears in hand rushed forward, killed the men in black in front of them, and quickly retreated.

“Help…Help…!”

The screams were endless, and the people who were originally watching the show were now so frightened that their legs became so sore and they could not move at all.

The shadow guard wearing black armor immediately drew out the ink-black scabbard from his waist, held the long sword in front of him, and with the blade unsheathed, he protected the emperor's safety.

"Don't worry about me, go and guard the carriage."

Zhao Changlin still didn't know how many people were in the group. She just managed to steady her horse and calm Ruoxue's temper.

His eyes scanned the chaotic situation on the street.

"Your Majesty, but..."

The leading shadow guard was reluctant to leave.

He was worried that if something happened to His Majesty, even if he sacrificed the lives of his entire family, it would not be enough.

"This is my order."

Zhao Changlin's voice became a little colder, and her palms began to ache slightly, probably because they had been bruised by the strangulation just now.

"yes…!"

Serving Your Majesty all year round.

As a shadow guard, he could hear the anger and determination in His Majesty's tone.

If I disobey His Majesty's order again, I will be violating the code of the Shadow Guard.

Cold sweat broke out on his forehead and pain began to spread from his palms. However, Zhao Changlin still endured the pain and raised his palms.

Intending to command the soldiers who were in chaos.

These sneak attack thieves were obviously very familiar with the operation of the imperial army, and they targeted the weakest part of the enemy's body.

Just now they shot at the horses' eyes and hooves. The horses were in a panic and the officers on horseback had no time to give orders to their soldiers.

These people can clearly tell... every officer under their command has obviously made sufficient preparations.

I plan to take my own life today.

Zhao Changlin didn't dare to relax at all.

……

The man standing on the roof stared at the bright yellow figure and smiled.

He threw the slingshot in his hand away with disdain.

How could you possibly kill the emperor with this thing?

He doesn't care about saving that damn prince for a few pieces of silver.

What he wanted from the beginning to the end was the little emperor's life.

The arrow tied in the sleeve is a deadly weapon. It is a top-notch item in the palace, and I got it with great difficulty.

It just so happens that such a precious thing is worthy of the little emperor.

With eyes closed, the remaining green tiles shook.

He aimed at Zhao Changlin, who was riding on horseback and remained calm in the face of danger.

The arrow reflects the sun's light.

……

Sitting in the carriage.

Xia Zhiyuan naturally also felt the chaotic situation outside the street, but... she had also been through many storms before.

Prudent.

Xia Zhiyuan did not get off the carriage immediately, nor did he even lift the curtain.

Her only worry was whether His Highness would be in trouble.

This Hongmen Banquet was obviously planned for a long time.

The location was chosen with great care. Although there are many people and eyes in this place, it is also a good place to fish in troubled waters.

"Ding! Ding! Ding! Oops, host - this system has detected that your capture target is about to face life-threatening danger - please rescue him in time -"

Sharp electronic sound.

Xia Zhiyuan's heart suddenly tightened and his breathing became rapid. He couldn't care less at this time.

She pushed aside the carriage curtain and was about to step out, but a cold wind blew towards her.

When Xia Zhiyuan looked up, he found a shadow guard wearing a black iron mask standing in front of him, holding an ink-colored long sword in his hand.

"Sir, His Majesty has ordered us to defend your safety to the death."

"Please, sir, comply with His Majesty's orders."

Xia Zhiyuan was blocked by the long sword and couldn't get out of the carriage at all.

"Let me out."

"Your Majesty...it will be dangerous."

Perhaps because his emotions were so up and down that his body couldn't bear it, Xia Zhiyuan was gasping for breath and his face turned pale.

It looks scary.

The shadow guard standing in front of the carriage became even more resolute when he saw Xia Zhiyuan's expression.

"My lord, His Majesty is also concerned about your health."

"Please don't let His Majesty down."

As he listened to the words, Xia Zhiyuan felt the sharp tinnitus in his head become even louder.

She could no longer hear the system.

My fingers gripped the handle of the knife, and I heard a whoosh sound.

Xia Zhiyuan pulled out the inky black blade with force. She stared with her eyes, a pair of eyes as clear as autumn water, and the look in her eyes showed that she would never give in.

"Let me out, or... don't blame me for being rude."

Do these people really think she needs their protection?

The blade was placed on the neck.

There was a moment of stunned expression in the shadow guard's eyes.

He could hardly believe that the woman in front of him, who had become so aggressive and fierce, was actually the woman who used to gasp for breath and was like a sickly woman.

Taking advantage of the momentary pause of the shadow guard in front of him, Xia Zhiyuan slipped out like a nimble rabbit.

The wind was blowing hard and there was a sound of fighting outside the carriage.

Xia Zhiyuan held an ink-colored long sword in his hand.

The shadow guard finally reacted and immediately turned back, regretting that he had made a big mistake.

……

The sound of the wind was stopped.

A silver hidden arrow streaked across the sky.

Coming towards the back of Zhao Changlin's head.

"Your Highness...!"

Xia Zhiyuan suppressed the tinnitus in his ears and shouted in the direction of Zhao Changlin.

His fingers were trembling slightly and he could hardly hold the handle of the knife.

"Received host's command——Opening for host——Time pause——50%——78%——90%——100%——"

A trace of blood fell on the snow-white rabbit fur on Xia Zhiyuan's collar.

The scarlet blood coagulated into blood beads.

Xia Zhiyuan had never felt so much pain when using the system in the past, but today, for some reason, he felt a heart-wrenching pain in his lungs.

When he raised his eyes again, everything in the air was paused. He raised his spear to resist the soldiers who were charging in and the villagers who were holding vegetable baskets on his head.

And the black shadow guard standing behind him, trying to pull him back.

The smell of rust in his nose became stronger, and Xia Zhiyuan had no time to wipe his blood.

"Fortunately, I made it in time...Fortunately, I made it in time..."

Muttering to himself, Xia Zhiyuan supported his tired body and was about to walk towards Zhao Changlin.

And at this moment, a snowflake flashed through his mind...but the drifting snow completely blocked his connection with the system.

"Warning! Warning! Level 1 warning!"

"Connection damaged... Connection damaged... Emergency self-rescue plan activated... The system is about to lose contact with the host..."

The snowflakes in front of my eyes faded away in an instant.

The deafening sound appeared in my mind again.

The silver arrow regained its original strength.

Zhao Changlin was startled when she heard Zhiyuan's voice.
