Soon after the blue smoke blew in, as if realizing that the people in the room had fallen asleep, the shadow gently pushed open the door.

     With a "squeak", a few people slowly approached the bed with a large knife, and when they stood in front of the bed, the person in the lead waved, and the knife flashed in the hands of several people, and then went to the bed chopped off.

     

     

    The man in black made fierce moves, and his moves were deadly. The offensive was very anxious, and he seemed to want to take down Zhong Lizhao as soon as possible.

      Yiren felt a chill in his neck as soon as he saw a flower in front of him, a jet of warm liquid spurted out, and then fell down with his eyes wide open.

    At the same time, the sound of fighting in the room reached downstairs, and the dark guards floated in like ghosts and fought with the men in black.

    Jiang Wan held a dagger tightly in her hand, huddled in the corner and stared at the fighting people, sweating for Zhong Lizhao.

      As a result, Zhong Lizhao's elegant and sharp sword moves were limited and he could only retreat.

    Back to the window, several people slashed with their knives in unison, Zhong Lizhao's eyes reflected a few cold lights, he quickly leaned back to avoid the big knife, the long sword in his hand was inserted into the ground and his body was hanging in the air , then turned sideways and kicked the man in black a few times. After retracting the long sword, he rolled on the ground and was temporarily able to breathe.

    The man in black clutched his chest and took a few steps back, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and he rushed up again.

    Jiang Wan was frightened when she saw it, and wanted to go up and help Zhong Lizhao.

    At this moment, a man in black who was kicked to the ground by Zhong Lizhao found Jiang Wan huddled in the corner, got up with a long knife and slashed towards Jiang Wan.

    "Ah!" Jiang Wan was frightened and quickly avoided, kicking the stool next to him to block his steps.

      He reached the chest of the man in black in front of him, then turned his head to look at Jiang Wan.

    "Don't come here!" I saw Jiang Wan screaming, grabbing something and throwing it at the man in black who was chasing him.

    "Cough cough!" The man in black coughed violently, waved his hand in front of his eyes, and covered his eyes violently.

    Zhong Lizhao also smelled a spicy smell, and immediately covered his mouth and nose, while the other people in black were coughing violently, and retreated to Jiang Wan's side.

    "Retreat!" The man in black coughed and cried to retreat.

    Zhong Lizhao saw this, threw the long sword in his hand, and stabbed the head of the man in black, while the rest were entangled by the dark guard who rushed up.

    These men in black were desperate to take Zhong Lizhao's life. Tears flowed, unable to resist the offensive of the dark guards, and were quickly taken down by the dark guards.

    "What did you just spill?" Zhong Lizhao glanced at the battle in the house and asked in surprise while holding Jiang Wan's hand.

    This powder seems to have the smell of cornel powder, but it is much more domineering than cornel powder. It is choking when you smell it in your nose, let alone in your eyes.

    Jiang Wan rubbed her head and sneezed heavily: "It's chili powder, I bought it at the market in Yunzhong County a few days ago, and the seller is a Hu man ."

    At present, chili peppers have not been fully spread to Liang Guo, let alone using chili peppers as condiments, so it is normal for them not to know.

    And the chili noodles she sprinkled are the hottest among the chili peppers sold by the Hu people.

    Because this chili is too hot, Jiang Wan specially asked people to pick it out and grind it into flour to make it something for self-defense. Originally it was just for fun, I thought it wouldn't come in handy, but I didn't know it would be used so quickly.

    Just now when Zhong Lizhao was fighting with the man in black, she turned the chili noodles out of her purse, holding the chili noodles in one hand and the dagger that Zhong Lizhao had stuffed to herself in the other.

    She was afraid of being a disservice, so she didn't use chili noodles. Who knew that the man in black would turn around and kill herself, so she spilled the chili noodles out in a hurry.

    Fortunately, it's useful, and I didn't accidentally hurt Zhong Lizhao.

    "Chili powder?" As soon as Zhong Lizhao inhaled, the air was filled with a heavy spicy smell, he couldn't help coughing, and laughed: "Where did you learn the tricks, how come you are like this? wild?"

    "Hehe." Jiang Wan smirked, then suddenly remembered that Zhong Lizhao's arm seemed to be injured when he was fighting with others, so he immediately took his hand to check, "Your Highness, are you alright? , tell me to see your wound."

    "Nothing, just a minor injury." Zhong Lizhao ducked and looked at the dark guards who were examining the body.

    

    "This king knows and disposed of their corpses." Zhong Lizhao frowned for a while, then waved his hand to tell the dark guard to dispose of the corpses.

    Because of the fight just now, the things in the room were messy, so Zhongli Zhaohe Jiang Wan changed a room.

    "Your Highness, you didn't tell the dark guards to stay alive, do you know who ordered it?" Jiang Wan washed her hands, and then saw that Zhong Lizhao had been slashed by a knife on the shoulder, and the wound was flesh and blood. Blurred, the gushing blood dyed half of his sleeves red.

    She carefully cut his clothes with scissors, wiped off the surrounding blood while blowing, and then disinfected with soju, revealing a finger-long knife wound.

    The wound was deep, and the flesh was smoldering outwards. Jiang Wan looked at the tears, and raised his hand to touch the tears. He took the golden sore medicine and gently sprinkled it on it.

    "Don't cry." Zhong Lizhao smiled, raised his hand and brushed lightly in the corner of her eyes, "You cry like this, originally it was just a pain in the wound, but now the king's heart also hurts. already."

    Jiang Wan's tears flowed even more fiercely, and then she suddenly closed her eyes and said, "Your Highness, you didn't wash your hands!"

    "Huh?" Zhong Lizhao was stunned for a moment.

    "You touched the chili noodles just now, and my eyes were too hot to open." She closed her eyes and touched her handkerchief everywhere with a look of grief and indignation.

    “…”

    A trace of embarrassment flashed on Zhong Lizhao's face, and he hurriedly asked the maid to bring in clean water, and told Jiang Wan to clean his eyes.

    When Jiang Wan was able to open her eyes, her eyes were swollen into walnuts, and she had to help Zhong Lizhao continue to apply medicine and bandage the wound.

    "Your Highness, haven't you answered my question just now?" She lowered her head and bandaged Zhong Lizhao's wound, then took out a clean suit and asked while changing him.

    Zhong Lizhao looked down at her red and swollen eyes, and answered patiently, "Yes, this king has long guessed the person behind the envoy, and even expected someone to assassinate him tonight."

    "Huh?" Jiang Wan looked up suspiciously.

    Zhong Lizhao touched her head with his uninjured hand, and explained warmly: "The place we stayed today is Xincheng Post Station, and it is hundreds of miles away from Xue Ji's hometown. Nanyang, the whereabouts of you and I have not been concealed, so now that Xue knows about it, he will definitely take action against this king, who has done bad things to him several times."

      , so the emperor will lose an arm."

    Jiang Wan suddenly realized, she grabbed Zhong Lizhao's sleeve and asked, "Then what shall we do next? Do we pretend that nothing happened, or take someone to Nanyang?"

    She was excited, and her eyes were full of admiration.

    "What are you fighting for?" Zhong Lizhao tapped her on the head lightly, and said angrily: "The 40,000 army that this king brought to Qin Township is still behind, what can I do with it? Xue Jie fight?"

    Jiang Wan smiled at him ingratiatingly, "Then don't fight, I'll just talk about it."

    "No." Zhong Lizhao gave her a sideways glance, and suddenly showed a smile, "Of course I still have to fight."

    "Huh?" Jiang Wan looked blank.

    A few days later, Jiang Wan was sitting in a carriage with a blue tarpaulin roof. Apart from Liu Lan and Liu Yu, who were squeezed inside, there was only Wei Yan, a young servant outside.

    On the desolate official road, Jiang Wan grabbed the ears of the rabbit pillow in his hand and said angrily: "I'm so pissed! Zhong Lizhao, this bastard, even left me alone and ran away by himself. Going to Nanyang. When he comes back, I must make him look good, turtle bastard! I'm mad at me!"

    “…”

     Liu Yu and Liu Lan looked at each other with helplessness flashing in their eyes.

    Since waking up to now, the princess has been reciting for an hour, and she can only scold these words over and over again. funny.

      A glass of warm water.

    Jiang Wan snorted: "But he didn't say that a few days ago. He promised to take me with him."

    “…”

    Liu Yu and Liu Lan said silently in their hearts: That's because if you don't agree, you will shave your Highness's hair bald.

    "He also secretly put medicine in my tea, causing me to sleep until I woke up just now. It's really too much." Jiang Wan said angrily.

      medicine.

    When he woke up, the carriage had gone for two or three hours, even if he turned around and chased after him.

    Liu Yu did not dare to speak, but she knew the reason why His Highness did it.

    It's not because His Royal Highness went on an expedition last year, the princess responded well, but she turned around and packed up her burdens and took them one step ahead without a word. His Highness was afraid that the princess would be like this again, so she simply preempted and used the same method as the princess.

    There were actually three groups of people who left the inn this morning. The first ones were His Royal Highness and the dark guards, followed by Caifeng and Yu Qing who left with their maids disguised as princesses of the earth, and finally It was himself and the princess.

    Jiang Wan thought about it for a while, and suddenly said in a low voice: "He still has a wound on his arm, what if the wound opens?"

    No matter how angry the princess is, in the final analysis, it is because she is worried about Her Royal Highness.

    Liu Yu smiled with relief: "His Royal Highness is accompanied by an escort, and General Xu is also rushing to Nanyang with his army, and will meet with His Highness in a few days, Princess, you don't have to worry."

    "I'm not worried about him, I'm just afraid that I will suddenly become a widow." Jiang Wan sniffled and said sullenly.

      He said later: "These were bought by the servants before His Highness left in the morning, saying that if you don't eat breakfast in the morning, your stomach will be uncomfortable, and the servants will watch you eat these."

    Jiang Wan's heart warmed and she didn't say anything.

    The four master and servant walked for a few more days, and they were the only ones who walked along the official road in a lonely carriage, until the day they rested at the Fengcheng Post Station, a group of people came to the post station.

    Jiang Wan was sitting in the lobby having dinner when suddenly a group of people walked in from outside, old and young, all dressed in gorgeous clothes.

    One of the leading young people was talking to the girl next to her when she suddenly saw Jiang Wan who was having a meal, her eyes lit up, and she approached and said, "This lady, this trip But are you going to Chang'an?"
