The two went all the way to the depths of the forest and hunted many animals, but most of them were rabbits and pheasants. If you want to get the first place, you have to have a few big ones.

"Your Highness, these are enough, why don't we go back?" Sun Zixiang persuaded.

"Walk further inside." Xie Jue didn't want to stop so soon, "Go back first!"

"Your Highness..." Sun Zixiang was helpless, but it was impossible to leave Xie Jue alone, so he could only continue walking in with him.

The trees became more and more lush as we walked, and the sunlight was blocked out, making it look a bit gloomy.

"Your Highness..." Sun Zixiang moved closer to Xie Jue, feeling that the wind was blowing a bit cool.

"Hush——" Xie Jue took out a feathered arrow from the arrow, and then took a bow to aim at a bush, and as soon as he let go, the feathered arrow went straight to that place.

Sun Zixiang didn't know why he suddenly released an arrow, but when he was about to ask, he found that a person suddenly fell out of the place where Xie Jue shot.

A masked man in black.

There are assassins! Sun Zixiang reacted immediately, but the group of people was faster than them, and jumped to the ground almost instantly, surrounding them.

"Your Highness, what should we do now?"

"I didn't bring anyone else with me." Xie Jue didn't feel any fear at all. Compared with the previous life, these people were already assassinated on a very small scale.

"Ah?" Sun Zixiang immediately stared at him with wide eyes. Seeing His Highness's unhurried appearance, he thought Xie Jue had already prepared for it!

He looked at those assassins, there were 20 enemies and two of us, there was no chance of winning at all!

"Your Highness, we don't seem to be able to defeat you." Sun Zixiang reminded weakly.

"Of course we can't beat them." Xie Jue took out three feathered arrows and shot at them, and immediately drove away while the men in black were evading.

"Come on!"

Sun Zixiang immediately rode behind him.

"Chase!"

Although the other party had no horses, they were able to catch up with them in a few strokes.Sun Zixiang hid several times in a hurry, and suddenly felt something in his arms when he lay on the horse's back. When he touched it, it was the thing that Lin Yehan gave him before!

He immediately pulled it towards the sky, and a beam of red light flew into the sky.

But at this moment, the assassin behind him suddenly reached out and pulled him to the ground.

Sun Zixiang rolled several times, and suddenly his wrist tightened, seeing that Xie Jue also dismounted.

The assassin's hands were full of long swords shining with cold light, and they were approaching them little by little.

"Die!" The assassin raised his sword and stabbed at Sun Zixiang.

Sun Zixiang closed his eyes intuitively, thinking that he was going to confess here today, but when he opened his eyes, he saw Xie Jue standing in front of him, holding the assassin's sword in one hand.

The palm was cut, and the bright red blood gathered and dripped in one place. He murmured unconsciously, "Your Highness..."

The assassin pulled out his long sword fiercely, and was about to go towards the two of them again, but suddenly there were several sounds of piercing through the air.

He turned around abruptly, only to see that several people had fallen behind him.

"Who!"

No one answered, Lin Yehan took out three long arrows and pointed them at the assassin, and when he released them, they all hit again.

Before the assassin came back to his senses, someone who appeared behind him unknowingly wiped his neck.

Corpses fell silently and were quickly dragged down.

The assassin got hit by an arrow, didn't dare to stay any longer, let off a mist, and then quickly disappeared into the bushes with a few steps.

Except for the bloodstains still remaining on the ground, no one would have thought of what happened here.

"Your Highness." Lin Yehan casually threw the longbow in his hand to the people beside him, and then walked towards Xie Jue.

When his eyes swept across the bloody palm, he frowned.

"Your Highness is injured, let me bandage your Highness first." His voice was unhurried and extremely flat, making it impossible to see happiness or anger.

Xie Jue knew that Lin Yehan had seen through his thoughts, so he didn't dare to refuse, so he followed him back to the tent.

Inside the tent, Xie Jue obediently asked Lin Yehan to put medicine on his hands.

The white powder was poured on the wound, and he couldn't help but let out a muffled groan due to the pain.

"Do you know it hurts?" Lin Yehan glanced at him, "Do you want to do this next time?"

"Master, I was wrong." Xie Jue immediately apologized.

Seeing that Xie Jue directly admitted his mistake, Lin Yehan didn't know whether he should be angry or not, but said unhappily, "Your Highness wants to make friends with Sun Zixiang, but this time it's too risky. Those are assassins, not Ji'an, I will not show mercy to His Highness's subordinates."

"Well," Xie Jue nodded, but suddenly realized, "National Teacher, you already know?"

"I've been working with Commander Ji for so many years, will you not know him?" Lin Yehan bandaged him up several times.

"By the way, the national teacher, do you know who sent the assassin?" Xie Jue asked.

His main purpose of using his body as bait this time was to lure the people behind him. As for making friends with Sun Zixiang, it was just incidental.

Since he accompanied him in, he naturally had to be brought out by himself.

"Your Highness does not need to worry about these matters, I will take care of them." Lin Yehan put away the medicine box, got up and left the tent.

Not long after Lin Yehan left, Xiao Guizi came in with a sad face, "Your Highness! The servant ran back immediately after hearing that you were injured. Where did you get hurt? Is it serious?"

"What are you crying and howling?" Xie Jue motioned him to keep his voice down, and raised his hand again, "It's just a small injury."

"It's a minor injury!" Xiao Guizi looked at his wrapped hands with distress, "Your Highness has been well protected since childhood, when did you suffer such a serious injury?"

In fact, Xie Jue was not serious, but Lin Yehan saw the wound was terrible, and his bandaging skills were really not good, so the scene where Xie Jue's hand was balled into a ball appeared.

Xie Jue didn't want to bother Xiao Guizi anymore, let him howl, let him cry, let him cry.

In the end, I couldn't bear it anymore, so I drove people outside the tent to wait.

For Xie Jue's sacrifice to save himself, Sun Zixiang felt very moved.After reporting his father's safety, he went to the place where Xie Jue lived.

"Your Highness, Sun Gongzi is here." Xiao Guizi announced loudly.

"Please." Xie Jue immediately stood up.

Xiao Guizi led him to the table and sat down, then turned around to make another pot of tea.

"How is your Highness's injury?" Sun Zixiang cast his eyes unconsciously to Xie Jue's hand, but saw that it had been wrapped into a ball.

It's so serious! Sun Zixiang felt more and more guilty. Originally, the national teacher asked him to protect His Highness, but he didn't expect His Highness to block the knife for him in the end.
