The Empress of Zhen Huan Reborn

Nian Wen noticed that there was a guard in the team who kept looking around, as if looking for something. She realized that the guard might have noticed something wrong, so the team changed its route.

Nian Wen decided to solve this problem first. She quietly approached the guard and subdued him when he was not prepared.

Who would have thought that this action would alert the other guards, and the situation suddenly became tense. Nian Wen had to fight a fierce battle with the guards to ensure that the plan could continue.

At the same time, Nian Gengyao, who was sitting in the carriage, heard the noise outside and quickly signaled to Mrs. Nian with his eyes.

After understanding what Nian Gengyao meant, Madam Nian lifted the curtain of the carriage and asked, "But what happened?"

When the guards heard what Madam Nian said, they were distracted for a moment. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Nian Wen successfully got rid of the guards and escaped using his lightness skills.

The guards were a little disappointed when they saw that they had not caught anyone. One of them looked at Madam Nian and respectfully replied, "Madam Nian, don't panic. An assassin just appeared. Maybe someone leaked the news. In order to avoid any more accidents on the road, we have changed the route."

When Madam Nian heard about the change of route, her heart tightened instantly and her face turned pale. However, the guards did not think much of it and just thought that she was frightened by the assassin who suddenly appeared. They comforted her again, "Don't worry, Madam Nian. The changed route takes about the same time as the original one. It will not delay Master Nian's medical treatment. On the rest of the journey, we will do our best to protect Master Nian and you."

Mrs. Nian nodded when she saw this and said, "Thank you for your help."

Then he retracted his head into the carriage. Nian Gengyao heard clearly what Madam Nian and the guards had just said.

Seeing that his wife looked distracted, Nian Gengyao reached out and held her hand tightly, wanting to give her some strength and warmth.

After Nian Wen left, he threw away the human skin mask he had just used, put on a new one, and started chasing Nian Gengyao's team again. At this time, the Nian family's secret guards also gathered together.

Due to the delay and the fact that they had deviated from the original planned route, Nian Wen had been thinking about countermeasures on the way, otherwise the whole plan might fail.

Nian Wen knew that time was running out, and she had to find a new way to make up for lost time and change the route as soon as possible. She thought about using the terrain and environment to create opportunities.

Not far ahead, there was a dense forest, and Nian Wen decided to set up an ambush there and wait for Nian Gengyao's troops to enter.

When Nian Gengyao's team approached the forest, Nian Wen led the secret guards to hide quietly in the woods. She cleverly arranged traps and obstacles, preparing to give the enemy a surprise attack.

Soon, Nian Gengyao's carriage slowly drove into the forest. At Nian Wen's command, the secret guards quickly attacked and engaged in a fierce battle with the guards. Nian Wen led the way and displayed his superb martial arts, throwing the enemy into chaos.

Nian Wen and the others were all wearing exquisite human skin masks, and the faces on them were all those of the emperor's secret guards and confidants.

The emperor's guards were caught off guard. Seizing the opportunity, Nian Wen sneaked into the team alone and approached the carriage step by step. The moment Madam Nian lifted the curtain of the carriage, Nian Wen shot a sword straight into Nian Gengyao's heart.

At the moment when the sword was about to pierce Nian Gengyao's skin, Nian Wen moved his wrist slightly, and the distance between the wound and Nian Gengyao's heart was only one millimeter.

After Nian Wen succeeded in the assassination, he blew a whistle. The secret guards of the Nian family gave up the fight and got rid of the guards who were pestering them. They fled the scene one by one. No matter how the guards chased them, it was of no use. They couldn't even get a piece of their clothes.

Mrs. Nian burst into tears at this time, "Husband, how are you? Husband!"

The guards who stayed behind were startled when they heard Madam Nian's screams, and they hurried forward to check the situation. When their eyes fell on Nian Gengyao, they couldn't help but gasp. Nian Gengyao was lying quietly in the carriage, his eyes closed, his face as pale as paper. His chest was stained with blood, and blood continued to flow out of the wound, forming a bright red blood fountain, like a blooming demon flower.

This horrific and bloody scene stunned everyone present. They stared at the scene in disbelief with their eyes wide open. Nian Gengyao's chest wound looked extremely serious, bleeding profusely, and his vital signs were very weak. Everyone's hearts were filled with shock and fear, and they could not accept this fact for a while.

One of the guards was the first to react and quickly shouted, "Doctor Li, Doctor Li!"

Doctor Li was so frightened by the fight outside that he huddled in his carriage, trembling and ignoring the calls of people outside.

The guard walked up to Doctor Li's carriage, lifted the door curtain, and saw Doctor Li curled up in the carriage, covering his ears and shivering.

The guard pulled Doctor Li out with force. Doctor Li was startled and closed his eyes. He dared not open them. He wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy, but he heard a man's deep voice in his ear: "Go and see Master Nian. Master Nian has been stabbed."

When Doctor Li heard the man's words, he was stunned for a moment, then he opened his eyes and saw that there was nothing on the ground except a pool of blood, and that all those present were the emperor's men he was familiar with.

Doctor Li breathed a sigh of relief and hurried to Nian Gengyao's carriage.

Doctor Li hurriedly checked Nian Gengyao's injuries, his face becoming increasingly serious. He shook his head and said sadly, "The injuries are serious, I'm afraid..." Upon hearing this, Mrs. Nian felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife, and tears fell like rain.

Doctor Li was at a loss at this time, but Madam Nian begged, "Doctor, please, make some medicine for my husband. Maybe it will really work!"

Doctor Li couldn't refuse anymore after seeing this. After all, he was just an imperial physician. If he refused too harshly and Madam Nian held a grudge against him, the consequences would be something that a mere imperial physician like him could not afford.

Doctor Li shook his head and prescribed some hemostatic medicine for Nian Gengyao, but he did not hold much hope in his heart and thought he had to leave it to fate.

After Mrs. Nian took the medicine prepared by Doctor Li, she thanked him profusely and then gave it to Nian Gengyao while crying.

When everyone was in chaos, Nian Wen secretly returned to the main group. She disguised herself as a servant of the Nian Mansion and stood behind the crowd with her head down.

When Mrs. Nian was feeding the medicine, she took advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention and secretly fed Nian Gengyao the pill hidden in her sleeve as well.
