Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

His finger accidentally touched an inconspicuous mechanism, and the wall in front of him slowly turned, revealing a secret dark room.

Walking in, Jiang Xue saw a huge stone table with a huge topographic map spread out on it. Upon closer inspection, it recorded the status of the garrisons in various areas of Yujing City as well as the secret passages and mechanisms.

Behind the stone table is a bookshelf. There are not many things on the shelf, just a small and exquisite box and a small plant.

Jiang Xue was very interested in the plant. Its shape was a bit strange, as if it had been cut in half.

After admiring it for a while, his eyes turned to the box next to him. He opened the lid and saw half of something shaped like a tiger lying inside. He picked it up and played with it in his hand. Before he had played with it for long, the thing was snatched away by Mo Xue.

"What are you doing?" There was a coldness in Mo Xue's eyes. He protected the tiger talisman with one hand and clamped Jiang Xue's wrist with the other.

How did this woman find this place?

He also found the tiger talisman. Fortunately, he came in to take a look. Otherwise, if he had lost the tiger talisman, Jun Li would not know how to get angry.

"Can't I come in?" Jiang Xue blinked, looking very innocent.

Mo Xue looked at her carefully, then let go of her hand half-believingly.

Judging from her appearance, it seemed that she really didn't break in on purpose.

"This is not a place you can just enter. Come on, follow me out."

After putting the tiger talisman back into the box, Mo Xue placed his palm on Jiang Xue's waist and pushed her out of the dark room.

"I want to go out for a walk." Jiang Xue felt a little bored staying in the house all the time. She said something to Mo Xue, then opened the door and went out.

Walking along the corridor, Jiang Xue suddenly heard a quarrel coming from the front. Out of curiosity, she found a secluded place to listen.

In the room, the head of the Wei family was complaining to Jun Li: "That Prince Gong is really too bullying. My daughter just took a bracelet to wear, but he made her kneel for a whole night. This is a slap in my face."

"Mr. Wei, did you come here today just to complain to me about the trivial matters in Prince Gong's Mansion? I paid a large sum of money to buy intelligence from you, is that all you have? What would Prime Minister Su think if he knew that his people could not get any information about the important matters and always made such complaints?" Jun Li raised his eyebrows while drinking tea, with a threatening look on his face.

His aura made the head of the Wei family swallow his saliva, and his complaining attitude was restrained a little. He bowed timidly and said, "Your Highness, please forgive me. It was my negligence. I came here today because I was entrusted by the Prime Minister to bring a message to Your Highness."

As he spoke, he looked at Jun Li and saw that he was just staring at him and didn't interrupt him, so he continued, "The Prime Minister said that in three days, he will ask His Highness to go to the west gate of the city, and the Prime Minister will escort His Highness out of the city as promised before."

Three days later, Jiang Xue was taken to a carriage by Jun Li, and Mo Xue rode in the same carriage with them.

He carried all the contents of the secret room onto the carriage, including the strange plant and the exquisite box containing the tiger-shaped ornament.

"Where are we going?" Jiang Xue lifted the car curtain and saw that the entire yard was empty, and her heart was full of doubts.

Judging from the situation, they seem to be planning to never come back.

"Go back to Xichen." Jun Li's eyes were filled with excitement.

He has been waiting for this day for a long time.

The carriage set off towards the west of the city, with smooth traffic along the way. Jiang Xue looked at the overly quiet streets and smelled a hint of something unusual.

No, this feeling is too weird.

Although they were not walking on the busy market avenue, it was impossible that there was no one in these alleys.

During the days she stayed in the yard, even if she didn't go out, she could hear the bustling sounds of the crowd not far away. In the alleys between the yards, there could be the sounds of children laughing and playing from time to time.

But today, there was no trace of these scenes.

If you listen carefully, you will find that Yujing City is so quiet that it seems like it is haunted.

No matter how I look at it, something seems wrong.

Jiang Xue was just thinking about it when suddenly a cold light in the distance brought her back to reality.

With a whoosh sound, an arrow hit the car window. If it was just a little bit off, her eyes would have been ruined.

"Get down quickly." Jun Li shouted, and several more arrows flew over, this time they went straight through the window and shot into the carriage.

dong dong dong.

Not long after, the carriage began to shake, and the sound of weapons clashing could be heard outside. The air was filled with an increasingly strong smell of blood. Jiang Xue covered her nose, feeling nauseous.

"What's going on?" Seeing that the carriage could no longer withstand the heavy bombardment, Jun Li quickly pulled Jiang Xue out of the carriage and yelled to the guards around him.

"Your Highness, we've been tricked. These people are all Prime Minister Su's men."

A guard blocked an arrow for Jun Li, and fell to the ground dead after saying this.

"That old fox wants to get rid of him." Mo Xue immediately understood that Su Ming sent them to Ximen this time just to kill them.

They had a deal with Su Ming before. They helped him get the key to the Wan family's vault, and Su Ming was responsible for arranging a retreat for them.

Now that he has the key, Su Ming does not want to take the risk of letting Jun Li go. Instead, he wants to send him directly to the underworld and let the dead keep the secret.

Humph, he is so cruel, an old fox indeed. Jun Li quickly figured out Su Ming's little plan and sneered.

He pulled out a sword from the dead guard, blocked a Beiling soldier who was about to attack, and then pushed Jiang Xue towards Mo Xue: "Take her to the tower, quickly."

By now, the Tieyun Army should be arriving soon.

As long as they see Jiang Xue, they will rush over regardless of everything. Only in this way can they survive.

Jiang Xue glanced at Jun Li who was fighting with the Beiling soldiers, and followed Mo Xue to the top of the city wall.

"Take your life."

Suddenly a roar pierced the sky, and another arrow flew over, but this arrow was not aimed at Jun Li, but at Jiang Xue.

"Ugh." Jiang Xue had lost her internal strength and was completely unaware of the danger behind her. Seeing that the arrow was about to pierce her back, Mo Xue pulled her to the side with force. Although he avoided the vital parts, he still injured his arm.

Just as she dodged the arrow, another arrow flew towards her.

"Hey, that's really annoying."

Mo Xue snorted and prepared to block the arrow, but a soldier suddenly jumped out from behind and entangled her.

Just as the arrow was about to pierce Jiang Xue's heart, a scent of ambergris wafted over, and Xiao Zhan appeared in front of Jiang Xue like a god sent from heaven, waving the long arrow in his hand to block the arrow.

"How is it? Are you okay?" He turned around and looked at Jiang Xue, asking worriedly.

Looking at the man in front of her, Jiang Xue felt an inexplicable sense of sadness in her heart.

What's going on? It's the first time I've met this person, why do I feel so bad?
