Xiao Rongxuan turned his head in surprise and looked at the guard who cut the bow string with a dagger.

"you……"

"Your Highness, be careful!" Liu Qianran reacted quickly and pulled Xiao Rongxuan away.

The dagger almost grazed Xiao Rongxuan's neck, and the latter broke into a cold sweat.

"Who are you!" Xiao Rongxuan stared at the guard with lingering fear.

Qin Li took off the disguise on his face, "The third prince is so proud that he didn't even notice that the guard beside him had changed."

Speaking of which, it took a lot of effort for me to find the opportunity to knock someone out and replace him.

"Damn it!" Xiao Rongxuan gritted his teeth with hatred, threw away the broken bow, and continued to order everyone to be killed while flying towards Chu Huanyan, wanting to kill her directly.

Qin Li immediately stopped Xiao Rongxuan, and the two fought together.

"Mu Feng, kill Chu Huanyan for this prince!" Xiao Rongxuan ordered Mu Feng.

The latter frowned and glanced at Xiao Jinzhi and the others, who were temporarily dragged out by the men in black and the crossbowmen, and arrived in front of Chu Huanyan.

However, before he could take action, Xiao Jinzhi flew over.

With a palm strike, Mu Feng stepped back and moved quickly.

Xiao Jinzhi raised his eyebrows slightly, "I didn't expect you to have such good skills."

"Thank you, Your Highness, but you have to learn something to save your life. I didn't want to use it at first, but now it seems... I have to use it." Mu Feng said calmly.

Xiao Jinzhi stood in front of Chu Huanyan and took a look at the situation at the moment.

Qin Li and Xiao Rongxuan restrained each other, while the men in black fought with some of the secret guards and Pei Zhaoqing.

The other part was guarding not far away, blocking the arrow feathers for Chu Huanyan and Xiao Jinzhi.

The most troublesome thing was the crossbowmen. While fighting, Pei Zhaoqing and the others had to guard against their cold arrows.

"Xiao Rongxuan has lost his mind. I think you can't see the situation clearly. If one of these people can leave alive, Xiao Rongxuan's actions today will be revealed to the world. Why should you continue to be stubborn and stand in the same boat with him." Xiao Jinzhi persuaded Mu Feng.

Although there are so many crossbowmen, these generals are not vegetarians, and some of them must be able to leave.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is right, but at this point, I have no other choice. What's more..." Mu Feng glanced at the crossbowmen and random arrows from the corner of his eye, "I am willing to take a gamble, but you may not To be able to leave alive.”

"Senior brother came to the imperial city for Shi Cunhou. Regardless of whether your goal is achieved or not, the battle for the crown prince should not have been in your plan from the beginning. Now why bother to risk your life and stand in the same boat as the third prince." Chu Huanyan said.

Hearing Shi Cunhou's name, Mu Feng's eyes darkened, and then he laughed again, "You may not believe it, but at this point, I really have no intention of betraying the third prince."

There are too many people in this world who rebel in the face of battle and give up in the end. He wants to try and be the one who leads all the way to darkness.

Taking a deep breath, Mu Feng gathered the inner strength in his palms and said, "No need to say any more, His Highness, please take action."

After saying that, Mu Feng's palm wind was strong and he attacked Xiao Jinzhi.

Xiao Jinzhi moved slightly and raised his hand to block it. Taking advantage of the opportunity to fight off Mu Feng, he flew forward to untie Chu Huanyan's rope, but before he could touch the rope, Mu Feng attacked again. Come here and don't give him any chance to breathe.

After several rounds, although Mu Feng didn't get any benefits, he still pestered Xiao Jinzhi so much that he had no time to separate.

Seeing that Xiao Jinzhi was almost hit by Mu Feng because he was concerned about his side, Chu Huanyan immediately said: "You should concentrate on fighting first and don't worry about me."

Xiao Jinzhi concentrated his energy and finally took the initiative to attack Mu Feng this time.

Mu Feng moved to resist, but after a dozen or so moves, he began to lose ground.

However, at this moment, a cold arrow with a faint green light was quietly aimed at Chu Huanyan.

The sharp arrow broke through the wind and headed straight for Chu Huanyan's heart.

Pei Zhaoqing noticed it first, but by the time he exclaimed, it was already too late.

Neither he, nor Xiao Jinzhi, nor Qin Li could block the arrow.

"Yan Yan!" Xiao Jinzhi was horrified.

Chu Huanyan looked at the arrow heading straight for her and subconsciously closed her eyes.

The sharp arrow sank into the flesh and blood, and there was a muffled groan.

But the expected pain did not come. Chu Huanyan opened her eyes, only to see Liu Qianran standing in front of her.

The arrow, glowing with green light, shot through his chest from the back, dripping with blood.

"Liu Qianran..." Chu Huanyan looked in front of her blankly, and immediately panicked after coming back to her senses, "Liu Qianran!"

Chu Huanyan never expected that Liu Qianran would stand in front of her.

Not only Chu Huanyan, Pei Zhaoqing, Qin Li, and even Xiao Rongxuan were stunned.

When the arrow was shot just now, no one expected that Liu Qianran, who was standing aside to watch the battle, would block it so quickly.

When Xiao Jinzhi saw that Chu Huanyan was safe and sound, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. He knocked Mu Feng away with a palm and quickly stepped forward, using his inner strength to tear off the rope on Chu Huanyan's body.

"Yan Yan..." Xiao Jinzhi supported Chu Huanyan.

The latter looked at Liu Qianran blankly, and seeing that he was about to fall, he quickly supported him, "Why?"

Chu Huanyan was filled with doubts, and her whole body began to tremble unconsciously.

No, Liu Qianran had no reason to block it for him!

She had obviously just said that she and Liu Qianran were already enemies, and Liu Qianran had not shown any signs of being soft-hearted and wanted to let her go. Why would Liu Qianran suddenly block her?

The robe on Liu Qianran's chest was completely soaked with blood, and the wound where the arrow tip penetrated was glowing black. It was obvious that the arrow was poisoned.

He fell to the ground and looked at Chu Huanyan quietly.

In fact, even he himself couldn't explain why he blocked it just now.

But the moment the arrow hit Chu Huanyan, he seemed to have lost all worries and thoughts.

The Liu family and their future were all covered by one thought.

He doesn't want the person in front of him to die!

Pei Zhaoqing finally got rid of the man in black and quickly came over to help Liu Qianran.

Seeing the black blood on Liu Qianran's wound, his heart ached.

poisonous! And the location of this wound, I'm afraid the heart has...

"Brother Liu..." Pei Zhaoqing felt extremely complicated.

Liu Qianran did not turn his head to look at Pei Zhaoqing, nor did he say anything. He just continued to look at Chu Huanyan intently. He felt that something was flying and passing inside his body.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered his conversation with Prime Minister Liu.

That day, he asked himself a question, could he really do what his father did?

"Ah."

Liu Qianran suddenly smiled. At the last moment of his life, he looked at Chu Huanyan warmly and with nostalgia.

"It turns out, I can't do it."
