Xin Fei's attention was focused on the back of the carriage that disappeared in the distance. If it wasn't for the fact that Li Zuoqing's subordinates were still here, she would jump on the horse and catch up.

But now she can only maintain a reserved and weak appearance, hoping from the bottom of her heart that the twenty solo riders beside the eldest princess are not soft food.

She didn't come to her senses until the receding carriage was almost invisible.

But the guards who stayed behind respectfully said that Wen Mingran seemed to have gotten into the princess's carriage, and only a dozen of them had to go around.

Hearing this, Xin Fei's face turned cold instantly.

She only stared at Lang Yu the whole time, she didn't care about Wen Mingran's small movements.

But this Di Kun dared to monopolize her Lang Yu face to face. It really didn't look like the simple and ignorant Di Kun did it. She had remembered this matter.

"It's getting dark, please get in the car as soon as possible and leave here earlier." The leader of the remaining guards stepped forward and said, "I'm ordered to protect your safety, please rest assured."

Xin Fei glanced at him, the anger in his heart was still there, and there was a chill in his eyes.

Without Li Zuoqing by her side, she had no patience at all, so she jumped into the carriage and drew the rope to close the curtain.

She completed these movements in a short time, and her unexpected skill surprised the guards who stood there respectfully.

"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and catch up with the eldest princess!"

A stern and cold urging came from inside the carriage, and the guards quickly answered "Yes", and all mounted their horses and turned around.

The wheels turned again, accompanied by the sound of horseshoes.

Xin Fei sat upright in the car, vigilantly concentrating on distinguishing abnormal movements outside the car, and maintaining an immediate response to combat in times of danger has become her habit.

After a cup of tea, the sound of a strong wind suddenly came from the woods. At that moment, the sound of countless fallen leaves brushing and flying overwhelmed the sound of horseshoes.

Hidden among them were the arrows that broke through the wind, and finally, the frightened and painful neighing of the forward horses broke the tacit tranquility of the team.

The horse's hooves were raised, and the horse hit by the arrow staggered and slowed down after a few steps of inertia. In an instant, the whole carriage shook violently several times as if it was stuck on a ridge.

The guards escorting around discovered the change at the same time, and urged the team to move forward nervously and anxiously. On the other hand, they kept an eye out for the enemies who did not know where they would come to attack again.

But the enemy is in the dark, and the self is in the light, not to mention the lantern on the carriage to explore the way is a bright target, and there are several sounds of breaking wind passing through the forest, the neighing of horses and the screaming of people in panic Also getting out of control.

When there was chaos outside the car, a slender hand lightly lifted the curtain, and something like a silver thread protruded from the crack, and the light shining in front was instantly extinguished.

Suddenly plunged into darkness, everyone's breathing was stagnant, and they could only hear the heavy panting of the injured horse and the urgent nails nailed into the tree trunk, and the clusters of arrows in the soil.

"Go! Go ahead, go out from here first!"

The lead guard shouted loudly.

However, the sound of horseshoes that had just been put together was interrupted again. Accompanied by the ghostly laughter of a strange man, the knife cut the bones into pieces, and a cold light flashed in front of the guard's eyes. The defensive line flips down forward.

There was an exchange of weapons outside the car, and arrows slammed into the car, and Xin Fei dodged the one who passed through the window with great difficulty.

She closed her eyes, and her expression was so indifferent that she didn't seem to be in the center of danger.

Even if there were screams from the guards outside the car, or Xin Fei was told not to get out of the car in panic, she was very calm and carefully judged the timing of the attack.

Listening to the movement of the arrows passing through, there are two archers in the dark, and there is another person who confronted the guards just now. At the same time, they heard the screams of the guards falling from horses from different directions, and there was one assassin.

It seems that the soldiers and horses brought this time must not be safe and sound.

But she is here, so it's not a problem. I don't know what's going on with Lang Yu.

As the soldiers fought close to each other, the leading guard hurriedly said to the scattered people: "Don't panic, keep the formation!"

However, the assassins will obviously not allow them to guard the carriage in the center again. A huge scimitar reflects a frighteningly cold light and swings it around like mowing the grass. The guards close to them can only smell the warm smell of blood , suddenly the blade slashed head-on.

"If you want to blame, blame you for the unlucky delivery of this train! This train—" Seeing that no one was standing in front of him, the fierce swordsman laughed arrogantly , splashing the blood from the scimitar on the car curtain in front of him with one hand, "But it blocked our master's way——"

"Shut up." Another cover-up assassin circled around with other guards, and when he heard what he said, he reminded him coldly.

"Tch!" The swordsman snorted, and retorted, "So what if I just said it, anyway, these bastards won't see the sun tomorrow, Jie Jie Jie Jie—uh!"

The disparity in force between him and the guards made him forget himself for a while, and he couldn't tell whether the sound of arrows approaching was an enemy or a friend.

A very thin cold light pierced through the neck of the swordsman, and the blood donation overflowing from his throat made him choke instantly, unable to pass the information to his companions, he twisted his face in disbelief and stared at the carriage, his throat was cold The source of the fine lock comes from the man behind the curtain.

The swordsman's sudden silence made the assassin's companion feel that something was wrong, but when he turned his head to check, he saw the swordsman silently raised his knife vigorously, and angrily wanted to chop towards the carriage.

—but nothing is faster than his slash.

The swordsman was like a marionette held by the neck. When he was pulled lightly, he crashed into the carriage, and happened to block the poisonous arrows of two archers.

The swordsman's reaction was no different from that of a dead man.

"Big man!"

The assassin with two daggers was shocked to see his companion die.

I never expected that the swordsman who was able to deal with it just now was silently killed. Could it be that there are hidden masters among these guards?

Even among the shadow guards used by the queen, they are the best of the best. At first, they thought that the concubine who was singled out for the assassination was nothing more than a little effort, but now it seems that it is not at all like that!

The assassin with the dagger didn't want to play around anymore, and went straight to the mission target behind the car curtain, and the two archers in the dark who were covering him immediately blocked the guard's footsteps with arrows.

He dodged to step on the carriage, and the carriage barely shook when he landed, but he still felt that the carriage under his feet no longer had the weight that a person sitting on it should have.

The assassin lifted the curtain with his arm, and it was pitch black behind the raised curtain, but the abnormal silence in the car made him realize immediately that the concubine sitting in it had already left.

"Damn it, the target is missing—" He clenched his hands holding the sword, and glanced fiercely at the guards who might be showing his feet. However, the moment he turned his head, there was a sound of his clothes flapping behind him, as light as a bird spreading its wings. , almost imperceptibly.

But the good quality of dealing with the enemy made him reflexively stab the dagger back.

Unexpectedly, there is nothing behind it!

At the moment of failure, he felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, and he knew very well that his death was approaching.

A light hand pressed on his shoulder immediately, and then a thin cold feeling of iron blade cutting that was too fast to react brushed his chin, and the warm blood gushing out couldn't take away the coldness of his skin.

Until he closed his eyes, he only saw a slender but powerful woman's hand protruding from behind diagonally, with a cold blade on her wrist.

As the dual-sword assassin also crashed and fell to the ground, the archer who was still in the dark paused for a moment, and then arrows struck from constantly changing directions.

No matter how chaotic the guards were, Xin Fei had already hidden in the dark in the forest.

She pinched the thin blade at her wrist, the blade had become blunt and curled up after the end just now, she couldn't help but feel sorry that the sleeve knife still couldn't take into account the two aspects of easy concealment and durability.

That being the case, why not maximize its value tonight.

She raised her eyes, pursed her lips and smiled, and glanced at the hiding place of the two archers in the forest who didn't know it. The knife in her sleeve reflected a small piece of ruthless and cold moonlight.

Even the screams were barely audible in the silent forest at night, but there were two thuds of heavy objects falling from midair to the ground.

After a while, the assassins who came to assassinate seemed to have disappeared. The leading guard was slightly injured, but with the help of another companion, he went to escort the carriage.

"Is your lady safe?"

The carriage in front of the guards was simply horrifying. Not only were there a few corpses of the enemy and us, but also the curtains and frame of the carriage were splattered with blood.

"Guard Lin."

A familiar indifferent voice came from behind a tree beside the path, and then Xin Fei walked out slowly from the forest. Contrary to the bloody scene in front of her, she still looked like an untainted fairy at the moment.

Seeing the guard's probing eyes, she said softly, "I just heard the sound of fighting and killing outside the car, and I got scared, so I got out of the car and hid in the woods."

"It turns out that it's like this...it's good that your mother is fine." The guards who escorted her saw that her face had lost all color as if she was frightened, but her clothes were clean and she was not injured.

Since the eldest princess left the mansion, he had repeatedly told him that his mission had not been let down, so he felt a little relieved.

But Xin Fei urged without delay: "Guard Lin, since our side is so dangerous, His Highness Lang Yu's place may be even more... Hurry up and catch up with Lang Yu, I am very worried."

"Yes." Guard Lin obeyed, turned around and counted the number of people, and there were only three people who could move.

Two of them continued to ride horses to go to the princess with Xin Fei, and the other stayed with him to deal with the scene, and returned to the city to redeploy troops.

Xin Fei glanced left and right at the assassins lying on the ground. She just tore open the clothes of an archer and found no information pointing to the source, but she was better dressed than ordinary swordsmen, so she guessed these people It is a private soldier that only a wealthy family can afford.

"Guard Lin, you have to be careful and check the identities of these people." Xin Fei whispered as he passed by Guard Lin, "This is also convenient for clearing the way for His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."

After finishing speaking, she walked towards the three horses that the other two had already prepared.

She is only worried about Li Zuoqing's life now, and she can always find out the murderer from some details in the future.

So the investigation is left to other people who are here to deal with the funeral, and she will go to Lizhou with the other two.

Xin Fei turned over and jumped on the horse, his posture was as smooth as the other guards present, and it also dispelled the thoughts of the two attendants who were still worried about whether they would take care of the eldest princess "weak Concubine Dikun".

Then the team that was supposed to detour followed the direction of the main car, from the cold night to the morning sun of the next day.
