Chapter 199 - Ambush
Xiao Dao said, the sword in his hand moved like a mirage, the leader in black robes saw this and retreated two steps, signalling his subordinates to fight with him, his lips raised almost indiscernible.
Heh, no matter how powerful he is, how can one person fight against four?
Just as he thought this, the smile in the man's eyes froze. Where the man's sword swept out, blood splattered everywhere. In the blink of an eye, more than half of his men had fallen.
The black-clothed man was slightly surprised, he never thought that Yun Qin would have such a powerful guard by her side. Seems like it wouldn't be that easy to take her life, but fortunately, he had prepared himself well.
Xiao Dao flew into the air, the murderous intent in his eyes suddenly appearing. Wherever the sword passed by, a formless and powerful sword qi would flash past, repelling the person who was rushing over without knowing whether he was dead or alive.
He used the fastest speed to get rid of the assassin, and with disdain in his eyes, he lightly said: "You overestimate yourself."
The leader was slightly surprised when he saw the leader. He had not expected him to be able to finish off more than ten royal experts so quickly.
Drawing his sword and meeting it head on, the two swords emitted a clear sound when they clashed.
Xiao Dao smiled, he flipped in the air and thrusted the sword in his hand straight at the masked man, suddenly, the sound of a sharp weapon could be heard, Xiao Dao's sword pierced through the masked man's abdomen and quickly pulled out, with a turn, he dodged an arrow, only to see a rain of arrows flying in the air, Xiao Dao returned to Yun Qin's side, pulling her along and preparing to leave.
Not far from where he was running, a sword suddenly struck Xiao Dao's arm, he let out a groan as he clenched his teeth, and turned his head to use his sword to sweep the arrow, protecting Yun Qin as he left.
The two of them casually ran into a small alley. Yun Qin held onto the belly and slowed her pace, causing the brow to unconsciously frown.
Xiao Dao slowed down and looked at Yun Qin: "Princess, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Yun Qin's tone was weak, he raised his eyes and saw that Xiao Dao's right arm was struck by the arrow, causing blood to continuously flow out from the wound. Yun Qin looked at his arm, but did not say a word when he saw how heavy his arm was.
Xiao Dao retracted his hand, and used his hand to pull out the arrow, and casually threw it away: "It's alright, I've been training since I was young, I don't care about light injuries like this."
Yun Qin frowned, seeing that the blood on his arm was black, she exclaimed: "There's poison on this arrow, let's find a place to sit down first, I'll bandage it up for you."
"It's fine." Xiao Dao unconsciously frowned, his lips turning white. He only felt that his hands were numb.
Yun Qin surveyed her surroundings. Not far away, she saw the exit of an alley. She quickly pulled Xiao Dao out of the alley and saw a carriage.
Yun Qin indicated that Xiao Dao should stay in the alley. She looked around to see that there were no suspicious people around, then quickly walked over, waking up the people who were dozing on the carriage: "Uncle, Uncle?"
The man in the carriage opened his eyes: "Miss, where are we going?"
"No, I wanted to ask you to buy this carriage." Yun Qin said as he took out a money bag from his waist and took out two taels of silver, "Can you take a look?"
The old man waved his hand, "Not selling!"
Yun Qin took out another golden leaf. "Then can you send us on our way? How about I hire you as my groom? "
The uncle looked at Golden Leaf and his eyes lit up. Since he was alone and only had this horse to accompany him, he agreed. "Ok."
Yun Qin gave him the money and turned to wave at Xiao Dao. Seeing that, Xiao Dao walked out from the alley and jumped onto the horse carriage.
"Uncle, let's go to Rice Town." Yun Qin said.
She took off the backpack on her body and opened up to look at her medicine. At that time, just in case, she had specially brought out the medicine Wen Le gave her, but she never thought that it would really be useful.
Yun Qin picked up Xiao Dao's sleeves and helped him clean it. She took out the Poison Cleansing Pill from her bag and fed it to Xiao Dao, then she found the pain-relieving medicine and sprinkled it on his wounds. Finally, she sprinkled the Golden Sore Medicine on it.
"Fortunately, there is such a thing. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable." Yun Qin frowned.
"Princess, you should worry about yourself first. Your face is so pale." Yun Qin said as she held onto her arm, touched. Yun Qin, as a Princess, was actually so friendly to his subordinates.
"It's fine, I'll find out if there's any medicine." Yun Qin's tone was extremely light as she lifted her hand to touch the belly.
After rushing all the way to Mi Town, Xiao Dao found a house for the three people to stay in first. Xiao Dao brought some medicine for Yun Qin and drank it all, then said: "Princess, you rest first.
"Yes." Yun Qin nodded and got up to return to the bed.
She only felt her mind grow muddled and dizzy.
Only by caressing the belly could one feel a bit of warmth.
Child, your father will definitely be fine, right? That news must be fake.
After resting inside the house for a few days, when Yun Qin went out for a walk, she found and ran over: "Princess, there is news, this is the sect master's reply."
Yun Qin received it, and opened it to take a look.
"As expected, it's someone from the palace." Yun Qin's lips slightly opened, and wasn't surprised at all, because it was just as she had thought.
"What else did Sect Master say?" Xiao Dao asked.
"Jun Yi said that he will help us take care of those people, so we can relax." Yun Qin kept the letter and rubbed his forehead, "Then we will stay here for a few more days, do you have any way to contact wood?"
"Please rest assured Princess, we have a way to communicate with them."
Yun Qin nodded, her body could not take it anymore, for her children, she had to wait.
The palace. Within the Heartrest Palace.
The smell of medicine filled the hall. Chen Fei held the medicine bowl in her hand and said softly, "Your majesty, drink another mouthful."
"Sigh." The Emperor sighed lightly. At this time, a black-clothed man appeared and knelt on the ground, saying, "Your Majesty, Empress, your subordinate wasn't able to do anything. I was unable to kill the banquet's Princess …"
"How many times have we failed already? I told you to do something badly, but what's the use of having the wife like you? " Chen Fei's gaze turned stern.
The black clothed man cupped his hands, "There is a person with unfathomable martial arts skills following beside Princess at the feast.
The hall's door creaked as it was pushed open. Chen Fei looked towards the door and saw Ye Qun walking in with a dark expression. Chen Fei and her oculi showed a look of displeasure: "Without a summon, who allowed you to come in?"
Ye Qun turned a deaf ear. He walked to the front of the inner compound head, lifted his lapel, and fiercely punched him. His eyes were as dark as ink: "You dare to assassinate her, I'll take your life!"
Ye Qun's warmth had disappeared, and his face was filled with anger.
The inner court head's eyes widened. He knew that he was the emperor's concubine, so he quickly said, "Prince, please spare my life. Prince, please spare my life."
Ye Qun wanted to continue his attack, but Chen Fei shouted, "Stop!" She, oculi, was dissatisfied. Ye Qun looked at his mother, a look of hatred flashed past his eyes. Gritting his teeth, he released her and kicked him fiercely: "Scram!"
