Chapter 224 Distress
Chen Xiuyan got out of the carriage first, and looked directly at the dead man who also got out of the carriage on the opposite side. Nanny Miao hugged him casually and pulled Princess Changshou out of the carriage. Under the guidance of Chen Xiuyan's right hand, she got off the road and entered the grove. I found a tree to hide, but my eyes never left the dead man.

Chen Xiuyan is not in the mood to worry about whether the servants in the opposite carriage are alive or dead. She took off her robe casually, reached out to lift up the hem of the skirt and tucked it into her belt. When the dead man attacked, she jumped horizontally to avoid it, and crossed her hands on her chest. He blocked the dead man's next punch before him, but he also took two steps back.

Her hands and wrists were a little numb. Her strength was not as strong as the opponent's, but she was more agile and able to avoid the opponent's attack.

It's been a long time since she used the previous moves. Chen Xiuyan took out a row of silver needles. She pushed the needles with her index and middle fingers. The next second, the needles were piercing towards the dead man's face. Of course, he could dodge it. Chen Xiuyan seemed very anxious. The hair needles under hand became faster and faster, but none of them could pierce anyone.

When the row of silver needles was gone, Chen Xiuyan lowered her head and fumbled in a hurry. The dead man saw a huge opening and attacked at close quarters. Chen Xiuyan raised her head with horror in her eyes and retreated instinctively, but she was still grabbed by the dead man. At this moment, a silver needle pierced the dead man's little arm.

The instant force released from the neck made Chen Xiuyan kick the dead man down, and then dragged the man to the other dead man who had just fallen off the carriage, and tied the two of them tightly with a rope.

In order to increase the potency of the medicine, Chen Xiuyan gave them two more injections. Those who had fainted fell asleep even more, while those who had just stiffened quickly fell asleep.

"Ma'am." Seeing that the scene was under control, Madam Miao hurriedly hugged her casually and led Princess Changshou out from behind the tree. "Servant, go ahead and have a look."

Chen Xiuyan reached out her hand to stop Nanny Miao, "I'll go."

Seeing Chen Xiuyan's back, Madam Miao was touched in every way. It was the first time she saw a master rushing in front of a servant to protect her, but she had seen Chen Xiuyan's ability, so she couldn't hold back, hugged and led him to stand in a safe place and waited. I still didn't forget to bow my head and tell the princess of Changshou to hold the medicine powder and silver needle carefully.

Chen Xiuyan picked up a branch halfway, and instead of using her hands, she directly used the branch to open the curtain of the carriage. The people in the carriage all collapsed in the carriage, and there was still a strong smell of blood. Chen Xiuyan saw the red bead at a glance, With a frightened look on his face, he jumped onto the carriage and caught Hong Zhu's pulse, still beating.

Chen Xiuyan directly carried the man out of the carriage, there was a mark on his neck, the man was knocked out, but other than that, there was a mass of blood on his abdomen.

Seeing the situation, Grandma Miao brought people forward.

"Grandmother Miao, I'll hold you whatever you want." Princess Changshou was very quiet all the time, but she was very brave. Grandma Miao gave the child to Princess Changshou without hesitation, and stepped forward to help Chen Xiuyan herself.

"Bring me my medicine chest."

Chen Xiuyan carefully inspected Hongzhu's wound, the wound was not deep, it looked like a hairpin rather than a knife.

"Madam (Sister Xiuyan)." Chen Xiuyan's thoughts were mostly on Hongzhu, she instinctively raised her head when she heard the voice, and then saw the horror in the eyes of Nanny Miao and Princess Changshou.

Instinctive to avoid harm, Chen Xiuyan only felt a chill in her back. She jumped over Hongzhu and turned somersault quickly, and turned around quickly. There was an embroidered shoe in front of her. It was too late to dodge, so she could only shrug her left shoulder and bear the kick .

Chen Xiuyan was kicked three meters away, and the woman who just wanted to kill herself was already running towards Princess Changshou.

Chen Xiuyan's mind was extremely clear in an instant. The purpose of the visitor was not herself, nor the Prince Jin's mansion, but Princess Changshou. This was to create a gap between King Taiping and King Jin.

Standing up and running, Chen Xiuyan started to chase, but there was already a distance, she couldn't catch up, she was always a little behind, and she had never been so flustered.

Princess Changshou was stunned at this moment, the only thing she knew was to hug casually in her arms, she closed her eyes in fear, and suddenly her whole body flew up, but someone hugged her, and when she landed, she was fell into someone else's arms.

"Wow--" the one in the middle wailed casually, and Princess Changshou got up immediately in fright, only then did she see that the person hugging her was Nanny Miao. Princess Changshou first coaxed her casually in a low voice, and did not forget to ask Aunt Miao in the middle.

Not far away is Chen Xiuyan, who is entangled with the woman. This person dressed as a maid has seen Chen Xiuyan once, and she is one of the servants of Concubine Wei, but the expression and posture before it are very different from this moment.

Chen Xiuyan was able to fight her evenly, but the opponent's offensive was always aimed at the Changshou princess, so she could only take defense. Fortunately, the opponent was not strong, and Chen Xiuyan put all her heart into it and managed to gain the upper hand. After thirty moves, the winner will be decided , but being caught, the servant girl suddenly stiffened and fell limply to the ground, a stream of black blood flowed out from the corner of her lips, she was dead.

"Most dead soldiers hide poison in their teeth, and they will commit suicide if they lose." Madam Miao was able to sit up, but she just stepped in front of Princess Changshou in time, then flew a short distance in the air, and After rubbing against the ground on his back and moving forward for a while, it was all skin trauma.

Having suffered a lot, Chen Xiuyan first checked everyone in the carriage. Almost all of them died of excessive blood loss, and there was a blood hole in their necks, which was pierced by a hairpin.

The only one who was still alive was Hong Zhu. Chen Xiuyan stopped the bleeding with the alcohol and gauze in the medicine kit. Fortunately, the wound was not deep and her life was saved.

Chen Xiuyan sent Hongzhu to the carriage, and Nanny Miao, Princess Changshou, and casually also went up. For the two dead men who were anesthetized, Chen Xiuyan unpacked the other carriage, tied it to the horse, and tied it to the horse. She was harnessed to her own carriage, with two horse-drawn people, and Chen Xiuyan drove the carriage herself, but just as she turned the car around, there was a dense sound of horseshoes not far away.

Chen Xiuyan looked from afar, and it was Eunuch Xia who was leading the way. She breathed a sigh of relief, got out of the car, and tidied up her clothes. Although she was embarrassed, at least she could see people.

"Shi Zifei." Eunuch Xia got off his horse and galloped after seeing Chen Xiuyan.

"Grandpa Xia." Princess Changshou raised the curtain of the carriage, her eyes were reddened.

Eunuch Xia relaxed, "It's good that the Princess is fine, I'm late, I'm sorry..."

"Eunuch Xia, let's go back first." Princess Changshou interrupted.

Chen Xiuyan told the situation of the three dead men at the scene. Eunuch Xia asked two of the hidden guards to take them back, and he personally drove Chen Xiuyan and his party back to the Jin Palace.

Those who came were all the hidden guards who stayed in Yunfang Palace to defend against the dead, cleaned up the scene, and retreated to the dark place in an instant.

"The other party was well prepared. When the old slave caught up with Princess Jin, there were eight carriages on the road. The old slave didn't see the princess thinking about it, so he went to look for it and found that there was no one in the two carriages behind. The driver was dressed as a dead man. , saw the situation was wrong and wanted to withdraw, but was taken down, but they all committed suicide by biting poison." Eunuch Xia explained the situation.
