It's a long way out of town.

From the noisy street all the way to the city gate, and then to the official road where there are only wheels rolling over and rustling dust.

The two of them couldn't argue with each other, and they didn't want Jiang Lingyi to watch the excitement. Four people, three directions, they lived in peace.

Unfortunately, this brief peace did not last long.

There was the sound of '咻' breaking through the air, the panicked shouts outside the carriage, and the sound of flesh falling to the ground.

"Protect the prince!!!"

"Protect the princess!!!"

Zhao Quan's complexion changed slightly. He had only been out of the city for more than ten miles, and someone dared to do something here. He was about to lift the curtain to go out, but was hit by Jiang Lingyi on the back of the neck with a walnut.

"hiss!"

"The opponent is using a bow and crossbow. If you go out now, do you want to die?"

Zhao Quan rubbed his sore spot, after all, he remembered the embarrassment of the prince when he was assassinated, today he and the Weiyuan Marquis have brought enough guards to go out, in the carriage, they should be safe.

He lost face and his tone became cold.

"Don't worry, if they dare to come, this king will dare to let them go and never return."

Xi Yu on the side didn't speak, but turned her head away and raised her chin with a sneer.

Jiang Lingyi ignored his words, and just played with two walnuts in her hands. The fighting outside the carriage did not end as quickly as expected, but the sound of flesh falling to the ground became more and more frequent.

Hairpin Xing stood by her side, his face was cold, and he never slack off for a moment.

The sound of several crossbow arrows piercing through the air came, piercing through the car windows and curtains and piercing into the compartment. With two exclamations, a shadow rushed towards Jiang Lingyi. She frowned, and was about to push it away, but He saw that what followed was a fine iron crossbow arrow, which was about to pierce the back of the person in front of him in an instant.

She quickly raised her hand, and vigorously pulled the figure down to the other side.

"Shh!"

The crossbow arrows brushed past Jiang Lingyi's ear, her eyes lit up with fireworks, and she grabbed Xi Yu's neck.

"What's the matter, Hairpin, let's go."

Zan Xing turned around and kicked open the back door of the carriage. Zhao Quan, who was almost frightened in the carriage, did not recover for a moment, and wanted to climb out of the carriage with trembling legs. Jiang Lingyi, who was blocked by him, was impatient. , kicked him down, and then pulled the person behind him.

The assassins who were sieging at the front noticed that they had got out of the car, and gathered around them one after another. Fortunately, the crossbows in their hands had been fired at this moment, but the sharp swords in their hands were still not to be underestimated. Dozens of people flew forward , The actions are tacit, and several people will be killed.

Zan Xing drew out the long sword at her waist, stabbed and pulled it back, and the sword style was like breaking a bamboo. Several assassins in front of her had a big hole in their throats, and blood splashed.

With two trash by his side, he slowly picked up the two swords and divided them into the hands of the two as if just now.

"The time has come for you to perform."

Zhao Quan's complexion was pale. Where did he learn martial arts? Seeing that most of his guards were dead on the ground, he couldn't even hold his sword steadily. Instead, Xi Yu held the sword firmly with both hands, and pointed at the approaching assassin. It was a random chop, which looked very dangerous.

Jiang Lingyi took half a step back, but the other assassins tacitly held their swords and rushed towards her, obviously premeditated, but unfortunately, before they got within three steps of her, they all died under the sword of Zan Xing .

An assassin had already quietly approached Xi Yu from behind, he was still waving the sword in his hand unconsciously, Jiang Lingyi looked over coolly, watching the assassin's hand raise the knife and fall.

At the critical moment, Jiang Lingyi threw the short blade in his hand with a whoosh.

The short blade was stuck in the assassin's throat, and he took two steps back feebly. He let out a hoarse growl, but he still collapsed on the ground with both legs weak.

Xi Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head pretending to be in a daze, but met her gaze.

Her eyes were cold, her temples were like clouds, and her gold silk embroidered dress became the only bright color in the chaos.

Jiang Lingyi walked towards him step by step, showing no concern on his face, but glanced down at the sword in his hand.

"Won't it work?"

Xi Yu took a deep breath, but watched Jiang Lingyi stretch out his hand and took his hand, no, he took the sword in his hand, raised the sword with his hand, and the silver-white blade ruthlessly pierced through the last person. Assassin's chest.

"thump."

It was Zhao Quan who collapsed to the ground in fright.

Jiang Lingyi let go of the hilt of the sword, and with a slight push, the assassin who was already seriously injured and pierced by a sword fell down like a mountain avalanche, but she just turned her head slightly, looking at Xi Yu with bright eyes.

"Have you learned it yet?"

Have you learned it?

Such an understatement.

Xi Yu should be terrified, but he felt the blood in his whole body was boiling, and his heart was beating so fast that he could only hear the sound of the heart beating violently in his head.

The team with nearly [-] guards originally fought desperately with the assassins, but now they are fighting more and more courageously, the sound of clashing swords can be heard, and the group of assassins immediately retreated tacitly when they saw that they could not please them.

On the official road, there were blood and corpses all over the ground. When the carriages driving from a distance saw this, they immediately turned around and left, not daring to get any closer.

Jiang Lingyi looked up at the sky, but Xi Yu's eyes were glued to her.

"My lord, the princess! The escort is not effective! I hope the lord will punish me!" The leader of Zhao Quan's guard knelt on the ground with one knee, his face was full of anxiety, and there was a bloody wound on his shoulder.

Zhao Quan, who was supported up, jumped into a rage, and was about to speak, but was stopped by Jiang Lingyi's stare.

After going through such a thrilling event, she was not calm like a noble lady, nor like the Jiang Lingyi he knew before.

Thinking of the sword that pierced his chest without hesitation just now, Zhao Quan's expression was disastrous, and Shanshan lowered his head.

He also knew that his performance was a bit embarrassing.

"You send your prince back, and the people from the Hou Mansion send Xi Yu back, and it's fine for me and Xing Xing to go by ourselves."

Jiang Lingyi's face was cold, and he almost wrote the meaning of 'quickly send these two retarded people away' written on his face.

Hearing this arrangement, the guards of the Wang Mansion were very surprised, and the guards of the Hou Mansion were also dumbfounded.

"Princess, this..."

"Stop talking nonsense, you two come down."

The two people whose names were called were still a little hesitant, and they were torn off one by one. Jiang Lingyi turned on the horse skillfully. The pearl hairpin on her temples was shaking because of this large movement. Her lips were bright red, and her fingertips were touched. Order Xi Yu who is weak and unable to take care of herself.

"Send him back to the Hou Mansion safely."

"Wait!" Xi Yu gritted her teeth and stepped forward.

"I'm going too. If you agreed to take me out, it's nothing if you left me halfway."

The bystanders were stunned.

Look, look, how sticky the noodles are.
