Quick Travel: Save the poor little villain

Xie Zhiwei tied a thick fox fur coat for Jinchen. Even though it was already June and the weather was hot, the young emperor was so weak that he could not stand even the slightest mountain breeze.

Jinchen held the little lion in his arms and let him move, pinching his ears from time to time. While playing with him, Jinchen wondered what tricks the protagonist would play this time.

Suddenly, the hand that was touching the lion was held by Jie Zhiwei. Just as Jinchen came back to his senses, he heard Jie Zhiwei lazily say, "If your majesty likes lions, I will ask the Western Regions to pay tribute to you with a few good-looking ones after returning to the palace. There is really no need to keep it."

Jinchen suddenly took a half step back and stubbornly hugged the little lion that was trembling with fear from Jie Zhiwei, "No, I want this one."

He pulled away the hand that Jie Zhiwei was holding, turned around and got into the carriage, his back looking a little sad.

Xie Zhiwei really didn't understand.

It's just a little lion. Your Majesty, are you... angry with him?

But, why.

Your Majesty's thoughts are becoming increasingly difficult to understand.

Xie Zhiwei shook his head and raised his hand to signal the emperor's guard to set off. The official troops had already set off half an hour earlier.

Dequan and Anjiu rode side by side. Dequan watched the scene and asked his friend beside him: "Do you feel that the prince has been paying too much attention to His Majesty recently?"

Anjiu has always been a man of few words, and never says more than he can give a look. He immediately gave Dequan a look that looked like an idiot, "Your Majesty must be careful so that the prince can be healthy. How can you not take it seriously?"

"...Oh you blockhead, I didn't mean to value that!"

"Which one?"

"It's just... well, I can't really explain it," Dequan was puzzled, "I just feel that... the prince seemed to only talk to His Majesty during the months when he needed blood, but now they are inseparable every day, and it's the prince who takes the initiative to approach His Majesty."

After Dequan finished speaking, he felt strange himself, "Forget it, I guess I was just imagining things."

On the way to the imperial city.

Jinchen was meditating while holding the little lion. As soon as the spiritual power began to flow through his meridians, he keenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from afar. It was a well-trained team.

Before long, the sound of horse hooves was getting closer, and then a guard shouted: "There is an assassin, protect the emperor!!"

"Kill the stupid emperor!!" the team roared, each one was so ferocious that they were able to fight on equal terms with the Dark Dragon Army guards who were accompanying them.

Jinchen sat in the carriage, yawned, and hooked the little lion's soft ears to pretend to be deaf.

But this group of assassins was obviously different from the previous ones. Not long after, Jinchen felt the carriage shaking and they were actually getting closer.

Jinchen secretly lifted the side curtain and looked outside. The Dark Dragon Army had a small number of people accompanying them this time. The assassins used a human wave tactic, and the warriors fought with real punches. The whole scene was bloody.

After lowering the curtain, Jinchen suddenly felt that this world could survive relying on spiritual power.

If you want to learn martial arts, you don’t know how long it will take if you don’t have enough hardware.

As he thought of this, there was another jolt outside the carriage, and the entire door finally broke into pieces after being chopped by a big knife.

"Your Majesty!" A group of guards wanted to protect the emperor, but they were blocked by the assassins rushing over. Jinchen was isolated and helpless for a while.

"Someone come, help me--" Jinchen shouted weakly, and each step was just right to be taken where the assassin would not catch him, and he walked a few laps like walking a dog.

“Your Majesty!” Mu Zhongzheng somehow managed to break through the assassin’s obstruction and ran towards him regardless of everything. “I am here to save you!”

Jinchen turned his head slightly, raised his eyebrows, and the original ease and laziness on his face disappeared, replaced by innocence and fear, "Cousin..."

How come this bastard came so quickly that he didn't even wait for the handsome uncle to come and save her!

[Don’t think about these things now!] Ling Gungun couldn’t help but remind: [The little lion is getting stressed! Don’t let it hurt you!]

The lion was still a cub after all, and it struggled wildly when frightened. Jinchen was almost scratched by it, so he quickly used some skill to restrain it in his arms.

"Your Majesty, are you alright? Come with me!" Mu Zhongzheng was holding Jinchen's hand and was about to go to a safe place, but suddenly he saw the assassin, who should have fallen to the ground, picked up the knife and rushed over, "Stupid emperor, die!"

The blade sank into his chest.

Jin Chen looked down and saw Mu Zhong trying to block in front of him, taking the sword's blow with his right chest!

"Puff..." Mu Zhongzheng couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, but he immediately asked Han Zhou who wanted to rush over to him to go back.

Today is a rare opportunity. I can use these assassins who came out of nowhere to make the little emperor trust him completely, preferably more than the regent!

The little emperor was so frightened that he rushed to him. "Cousin!"

Mu Zhongzheng was only slightly injured, but after being pounced on by him, he was stabbed hard and completely fainted.

"Master!" Han Zhou quickly came to rescue him. He frowned and stared at Jin Chen, but saw that his face was blank. "I... I'm just scared."

Han Zhou blocked the knife that was aimed at the assassin Jinchen and first took Mu Zhongzheng away from the assassination circle. He knew that the emperor would be fine.

Jinchen also soon discovered the clues.

He originally thought that this group of people were called by that bastard Mu Zhongzheng, but the fight just now didn't seem fake. Han Zhou was too calm...

Jinchen suddenly raised his eyes, narrowed his peach blossom eyes and looked towards the front of the team.

Han Zhou is a person who understands the subtle.

This group of people were actually sent by Xie Zhiwei.

What is the purpose? To test whether he knows martial arts or whether he has been switched.

Jinchen dodged an attack and saw that the assassin was so aggressive and every move he made was fatal. His face instantly darkened.

"Your Majesty!"

At this time, at the front of the team, An Jiu swung his sword and killed the assassin, then rushed to the carriage waiting in the corner.

"Your Highness, this is bad! This person is not ours! The assassin we arranged was ambushed on the way here!"

Just as An Jiu finished speaking, he saw the curtain of the carriage suddenly shattered, and Xie Zhiwei was left with only a figure that disappeared on the spot.

[The Lord God is here.] Ling Gungun reminded quietly.

Jinchen watched coldly as the assassin in front of him fell to the ground and died. When he turned around, he suddenly became confused and stumbled two steps on the bloody battlefield.

The look he gave Jie Zhiwei was pale, frightened, and struggling.

He seemed to know. Xie Zhiwei was thinking at that moment that the little emperor knew that the assassination was deliberately arranged, but he never thought of taking Jinchen's life...

"Jinchen!" Xie Zhiwei caught the person who was about to fall to the ground, and his uncontrollable panic spread rapidly.

The Dark Dragon Army, which was observing from the surroundings, reacted instantly and displayed their killing moves.

In just a few moments, all the assassins were killed.

"Cut the grass at its roots." Xie Zhiwei quickly rushed to the imperial city holding the unconscious Jinchen, leaving only a light order.
