Tea Merchants of the Song Dynasty

Jiang Yin stared at the woods for a long time, then turned his head and said anxiously, "Let's hurry up, I feel like there's something strange about this woods."

You can just listen to the story of waiting for something to happen, but when you really encounter it, there are always some unexpected emergencies.

Maybe you are guarding the rabbit, but in the eyes of others, you are also a rabbit.

Wang Heng looked in the direction of the woods, narrowed his eyes and said, "My lady, be careful. I'll be back soon."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and headed for the woods. After all, he also sensed something unusual.

Jiang Yin quickly stopped him and said, "Don't go, let's finish eating and leave."

She is not the kind of person who would go to a dangerous place even though she knows there is a tiger there. She just hopes that nothing unexpected will happen in broad daylight.

Seeing her serious expression, Wang Heng had no choice but to give up, but became more vigilant.

After quickly eating some dry food, Jiang Yin and his group prepared to set out on their journey again.

However, before getting on the car, they saw several strong men suddenly jumping out from the woods.

Although they were dressed like ordinary people, one could tell they were not ordinary people just by looking at their appearance.

What was even more strange was that the official road, which had many people passing by just now, was now completely empty, which was quite eerie.

Jiang Yin's eyelids twitched slightly, and he became alert. He quickly got into the car and asked the driver to go at full speed.

Her intuition told her that those people had bad intentions. Especially when she got on the carriage, they stared at her intently, as if they regarded her as prey.

Xiao Luo also noticed something unusual. She held Jiang Yin's slightly cold hand and said with trembling voice, "Madam, do you know those people?"

There was a hint of tears in her voice. As her personal maid who always stayed by her side, she knew best whether her wife recognized those people or not.

As expected, Jiang Yin shook his head and said dumbly, "I don't know him, but I'm very nervous, Xiao Luo. Be careful, I'm afraid things will get uneasy next."

When people are in crisis, they often have a sixth sense, which is intuition.

Jiang Yin had a hunch that those people just now were not good people, and might even be coming for her.

She forced a bitter smile. What was coming was finally coming.

Turns out, her instincts were right.

Not long after the carriage drove out, Wang Heng whispered at the window, "Madam, hold on tight. They are catching up with us, and they are not friendly."

Then, Jiang Yin noticed that the carriage had accelerated. Outside the window, he could vaguely hear the sound of pursuit. Those people behind him had caught up with him, and they really had bad intentions.

Jiang Yin's heart sank. Just as he steadied the carriage, it sped up again and started running quickly.

She could clearly feel that the people chasing them were making more noise. She could also feel that the people chasing them were quite skilled in martial arts.

No one knew how they caught up with the carriage, but after a moment, Jiang Yin heard the sound of fighting coming from behind the carriage.

Jiang Yin suddenly lifted the curtain and looked behind the carriage, only to see Wang Heng being entangled by three of the assassins. The remaining three assassins rushed towards her carriage.

"Stop the car, stop the car." Jiang Yin shouted to the driver, "Brother Heng is in danger, go and help him!"

Her coachman was also carefully selected and his martial arts skills were not bad.

However, she forgot that her people were there to protect her.

The driver drove the car while saying, "Madam, we can't stop the car. Guard Heng led the assassin away to give us more time to escape."

"Yes, my lady." Xiao Luo gritted her teeth and held Jiang Yin's hand tightly, saying, "My lady, please don't let Wang Heng down."

Going out now would undoubtedly be a trap, and everyone would be in danger. It is not a foolproof plan.

Jiang Yin paused, then said soothingly: "Don't worry, I know my limits."

She grabbed the whistle on her chest and blew it, summoning her secret guards to come out for help.

Whether it was Wang Heng fighting one against three, or them fighting against the other three assassins who were chasing them, their chances of winning were not high.

She had no choice but to call out the secret guards to help fight off the assassin.

In addition to those sent out previously, there are still four secret guards in total.

All four of them came out, one of them went to help Wang Heng, and the other three stopped the three assassins who were coming towards the carriage.

Seeing that the situation was under control, Jiang Yin's carriage also stopped.

However, just as they stopped, a large knife was thrust straight into the back of the carriage, with the tip of the knife stuck between Jiang Yin and Xiao Luo.

It turned out that in addition to the previous assassin, there was another person hiding in the dark, looking for an opportunity to attack.

"Be careful, my lady." Xiao Luo protected Jiang Yin and rushed forward, trying to avoid the danger behind the carriage.

However, what was to come would eventually come. As soon as he rushed over, the carriage frame at the rear was split in two by the sword.

Not only that, the assassin with a big knife followed closely behind and was about to jump onto the carriage.

"Let's go!" Jiang Yin reacted quickly and rushed out of the car with Xiao Luo. Then, without hesitation, he took Xiao Luo and jumped into the bushes by the roadside.

At the same time, the driver swiftly cut the rope on the carriage with his knife, and swung the knife at the assassin who followed before the carriage fell.

Jiang Yin fell to the ground and groaned. He endured the pain in his knee, quickly sat up, and looked at the two people fighting.

The driver has received professional training, so his fighting capacity is naturally strong.

However, just when the driver found an opportunity to stab the assassin in the chest, an arrow pierced straight through the back and pierced the assassin's chest.

Jiang Yin's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he looked in the direction of the sharp arrow, but he couldn't see clearly who shot the arrow.

"My wife." Xiao Luo ignored the pain in her body and hurried to help Jiang Yin.

"No problem." Jiang Yin waved his hand, looked Xiao Luo up and down, held her hand and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

She sighed in her heart. Xiao Luo had been following her for two lifetimes and lived in fear. She felt really guilty.

Xiao Luo helped her up while crying and said, "I'm fine, why did you protect me, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't be hurt."

She should have been the one injured, but when the lady jumped out of the car, she took most of the damage.

Thinking of this, her tears fell uncontrollably.

Jiang Yin raised his hand to wipe Xiao Luo's tears and comforted her, "Don't worry, I'm fine too. Let's go over and take a look."

She endured the pain in her knee and pretended to be nothing as she walked towards the fallen assassin.

At the same time, Wang Heng and the secret guards also dealt with all the other assassins, and the secret guards hid in the dark again.

Wang Heng wiped the blood off his face and ran towards her.

Perhaps he didn't want the smell of blood on his body to reach her, so he stopped about ten feet away from her.

He cupped his hands and said, "My lady's injuries are serious. Do you want to return to the city first?"

Jiang Yin knew that Wang Heng saw her jumping out of the car, and also found that she had an injury on her knee.

After she found that Wang Heng had no injuries, she shook her head and said, "It's OK. Who are these assassins? Have you found any clues?"
