Chapter 162 Chasing and Intercepting
Upon hearing this, the third princess immediately shook her head and said:
"No, how can my father take risks for me? If someone really wants to do harm to me, wouldn't you become a target! I will never agree!"
When Xian Shijun heard the third princess's firm refusal, he felt very happy. He touched the third princess's head happily and said with a smile:
"The princess has grown up and understands the responsibilities she has to shoulder. I am very happy, and I believe your mother will also be very pleased.
Since the Queen asked you to return to the capital, it proves that something will happen against you in the near future. Your mother is also afraid that she will be out of reach, so she lets you go back.
But since you have your own ideas, I won't stop you. I will go back and explain it to your mother in person, and you can settle down and act according to your plan. "
Xian Shijun gave his daughter the greatest trust.
This made the Third Princess blush a little, but she still nodded and asked Xian Shijun to take away the guards arranged by the Queen. The reason was also ready.
"Since we want to create the illusion that you picked me up, we can't leave the people arranged by the Queen Mother. Those people are not stupid and will leave the master's side without a bodyguard, especially the people arranged by the Queen Mother to protect you. "
"I understand, I will only leave the secret guard to you."
Xian Shijun was not an indecisive person and made his decision immediately.
"Just leave two people. There is no need to leave them all. You don't know what you will encounter when you go back this time."
Both of them were worried about each other, but in the end it was Xian Shijun who made the final decision. He took away the Third Princess's visible bodyguards and left most of the secret guards with the Third Princess. Only two of them were left by his side.
At sunset on the second day, he took the Queen's order and left Fengxuan City. He went straight to the capital without meeting Vice General Zhao who was stationed outside the city.
The last two members of Panlong Kingdom's assassination team happened to pass by Xian Shijun and did not meet each other. When the two contacted the person who delivered the news to the Zhao family, the other party informed them that Xian Shijun had been killed the day before. Jun left Fengxuan City with the three princesses.
The two of them were a little dumbfounded. The target of the assassination was gone, and the people behind them did not retreat. They could only bite the bullet and follow the direction provided by the other party and start chasing the third princess.
At that time, the three princesses had already disguised themselves and were fully armed to help the imperial doctor in the city, brewing a decoction to cure the plague. They used three carts of symptomatic herbs brought by Xian Shijun, which allowed the imperial doctor to make a substantial breakthrough. .
Because of the timely quarantine, the plague in Fengxuan City did not spread over a large area. These people were infected with the plague because they did not follow the requirements of the government officials.
Now that they have learned from the past, the people in the city have implemented the measures issued by the government to prevent the plague without any compromise. In order to bring the plague under control, the whole city began to boil vinegar for disinfection, and uniformly disposed of human and poultry carcasses, plus random The relief food delivered by the government gave the people complete peace of mind.
When Xianshijun was rushing back all the way, he encountered numerous assassinations. However, because they were prepared for it and Xianshijun was also practicing martial arts, he drove back without any danger. When he approached the capital, he was killed. The two killers from Panlong Kingdom caught up.
The two of them received a death order, saying that they were both killers and dead soldiers. Moreover, their brothers had died in Fengqi Country, and they had no intention of returning alive, so when they caught up with Xian Shijun and his entourage, they could be said to have risked their lives. They rushed forward to fight, and even used something called a thunderbolt, catching Xian Shijun and his party off guard.
Lianyi was currently looking at the news sent by Feng Shou. The detailed work from Xuanwu Kingdom and White Tiger Kingdom was close to the target. Good news would be sent back in two days. This time was probably the last communication.
With a "pop" sound, Lianyi looked up warily and found that the white jade tea cup in her hand was cracked, and the clear tea inside seeped out.
Lan Xin, who was waiting by the side, took a look and immediately stepped forward to remove the teacup and replaced it with a white jade teacup.
Lianyi raised his heroic brows and contacted Shi Jiu in his heart:
"Nineteen, are you there?"
"What's the matter?"
Shi Jiu responded very simply this time.
"Did something happen?"
"Wait a minute! Let me take a look!"
Just when Lianyi was about to lose his patience, Shi Jiu replied:
"Your premonition is quite accurate, but what happened was not your daughter, but your husband. Xian Shijun was blocked by two dead soldiers from the Panlong Kingdom in the sycamore forest ten miles outside the capital. I am afraid he will be injured. The other party died holding them together. The purpose is to drag Xian Shijun to die with him."
"Didn't I arrange secret guards for them? How could this happen?"
Ripple frowned and asked.
"Then there's no need to ask! The Third Princess didn't come back, and most of the secret guards were left with her. Instead, the Xian Shijun became a target, attracting all the firepower."
Shi Jiu had something to say and told Ripples.
"Fengshou!"
Ripple shouted loudly.
"My subordinate is here!"
"Take someone to pick up Mr. Xian in the Wutong Forest ten miles outside the city. Try to capture the attackers alive to ensure the safety of Mr. Xian. If you can't capture them alive, kill them."
"yes!"
Although Feng Shou didn't know why the Queen knew that Xian Shijun was in trouble, and also knew the specific location, it didn't stop her from acting as ordered, and she personally took people to respond.
When she arrived outside the capital, she saw an exploding pop of fireworks in the sky in the direction of Wutong Forest. This was a distress signal from their royal secret guards. As long as they saw this signal, the secret guards performing tasks nearby must rush to the scene immediately. Go to support.
"Let's hurry up!"
"Yes, leader!"
Feng Shou led twenty people dressed in black, like ghosts in the dark night, and rushed towards the sycamore forest.
At this time, Xian Shijun was holding a long sword in his hand, using the trees of the Wutong Forest to fight with a group of people who were surrounding them. There was sweat on his face, his breathing was quickened, but his eyes were exceptionally bright.
The close guards and secret guards who were fighting and retreating around him were not so lucky. They were more or less covered in paint, and some of them had their hair and robes burnt. If you smelled it carefully, it was still... You can smell the smell of burning meat.
The cold-faced female guard looked solemn. Along the way, they had encountered three groups of interceptors and were blocked by them. This time, the two men in black were particularly difficult to deal with. They fought almost desperately. Law, and they have to protect the virtuous servant, they will inevitably be restrained, so they feel a sense of suffocation of being suppressed and beaten.
When the two of them exploded the first thunderbolt bomb, she knew that these people were dead soldiers of the Panlong Kingdom, because thunderbolt bombs were only found in the world of Panlong Kingdom and had been banned due to their excessive lethality. , so they were unprepared, two sisters died, and two others were seriously injured, so they could protect Xian Shijun.
Fortunately, Xian Shijun is different from ordinary gentlemen. He can protect himself without panicking in case of trouble, which greatly reduces their burden. Moreover, the secret guard has already sent a distress signal, so they only need to hold on until reinforcements arrive.
With a "swish" sound, a black egg the size of an egg flew towards Xian Shijun again.
"careful!"
