When the princess gets married, the general must not flee

A horse-drawn carriage was moving slowly along the quiet tree-lined path.

"After returning to the capital, find time to bring the rifle back!" Bai Xin drank tea slowly in the carriage and raised his eyes to warn Li Ze.

"General Ye's original intention was to have you heal his hand yourself before talking to him about getting the rifle back." Li Ze shook his head and refused. He didn't want to get involved in this mess. General Ye's target was not just the rifle, and even a fool could see that.

After seeing Bai Xin pour the tea, he took it and drank it consciously.

Bai Xin rolled her eyes at him.

"His hand injury has been there for more than half a month, and it has healed long ago. Why should I do anything unnecessary?"

More than half a month has passed since they separated from Ye Qi and the others and stayed behind to treat the injured. Not to mention a hand injury, even a broken leg can get out of bed and walk.

Li Ze put down the teacup.

"Anyway, I'm not going. If you want to go, go ahead. General Ye is holding this hostage with a rifle so that you can't escape from his grasp. Who made you so conspicuous before? Now you're being watched by others."

"If you ask me, it's only natural for Ye Qi to keep Qiangri. You two are husband and wife, and Qiangri should be raised by both of you! If you don't want to go and get it back yourself, just let him keep it!"

Li Ze gave Bai Xin a smug look.

Min'er listened with a smile on her face.

"Swagger, how am I swaggering? Why am I swaggering? I won't offend anyone unless they offend me!"

"Don't you think you're showing off? Why do you go out now and dress up as a man?"

Li Ze pursed his lips and motioned for her to look at his clothes today.

Bai Xin was wearing a light blue slim-fitting robe, with his hair combed into a man's bun, and his eyebrows and eyes were deeply drawn. He looked like a handsome and elegant man.

"It's convenient for fighting!" Bai Xin said unhappily. But he didn't expect that his words would come true.

"Humph, besides, if I wasn't such a fearless person who would always rush to the front, if I had hesitated for even a second, I wouldn't have risked my life to carry you through the hail of bullets. Why would I have fallen into this hellhole with you? Just let you die in a foreign land!"

Bai Xin looked disgusted.

"Yes, so Rifle and I are very happy to be your lackeys and follow you forever!"

"The rifle is second, and I am the lackey first!" Li Ze was about to lean on Bai Xin's legs with a grin.

Seeing Bai Xin glaring at him, he awkwardly withdrew his action.

Then he shamelessly said: "But you have to take the rifle back yourself." That man killed people without blinking an eye, so it was really hard to offend him.

"Hmph!" Bai Xin rolled her eyes at him, knowing that he was unreliable. She turned to look out the window, not wanting to pay any attention to him.

Min'er covered her mouth and laughed. They had been away from home often in the past few years. It was said that she served the princess, but in fact, it was the princess who served her.

Although she thought in her heart that they were in a master-servant relationship, the princess often treated them as close friends.

At first, I wasn't used to Li Ze's disrespectful behavior, but when the two of them encountered problems, they were always able to cooperate tacitly, more like brothers. I was used to their bickering, and it felt very heartwarming.

Bai Xin was looking out the car window, thinking about how he should ask Ye Qi to return his rifle when he got to the capital.

Reveal her identity? Would she lose her freedom then? Although Ye Qi was interested in her, it was probably because of possessiveness that she was more likely to be used by him. There was no such thing as love.

Life is so long, she doesn't want to be tied to him and be a woman in the boudoir.

Besides, she was still looking for a way to go back. Once her identity was revealed, things would become difficult. No matter how she looked at it, Ye Qi was not someone she could control.

Her status as a princess also does not allow her to do anything excessive, otherwise if it affects the people of the Wu country, she would be committing a serious crime.

I sighed in my heart and could only take one step at a time.

While he was thinking, a horse-drawn carriage came speeding towards him, and the dust it raised covered the entire road.

The coachman in front had half of his face covered with a black cloth. He kept waving the whip in his hand, and the horse ran forward madly in pain.

Which good man would drive a carriage wearing a mask in broad daylight? Bai Xin was secretly dissatisfied.

Suddenly she felt her body shaking, her center of gravity was unstable, she staggered forward and was almost thrown out of the car window. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and held on to the window edge tightly, so she was not thrown out.

The carriage was going too fast and when it passed by Bai Xin and his companions' carriage, it hit the eaves of the carriage, startling the horses of Bai Xin and his companions, causing the carriage to shake violently.

Bai Xin steadied herself and was thinking about how to argue with him when she suddenly caught a glimpse of a woman sticking half of her head out of the window of the carriage opposite. Although it was only a brief glance, she could see that the woman's eyes were covered and her mouth was blocked by cloth. In an instant, the person was caught back and the curtain of the window was blocked tightly again.

"Li Ze!" Bai Xin called out softly and gave him a wink.

Li Ze quickly understood what he meant and hurriedly turned the carriage around to catch up with the speeding carriage.

Bai Xin and his companions' carriage had been modified, and the body of the carriage was light and sturdy. The two tall horses chased after it and soon caught up with the carriage, signaling them to stop.

When the carriage saw someone chasing it, it knew it was in the wrong and whipped the horse faster.

Seeing that he had no intention of stopping, Li Ze used the carriage to hit the other party, trying to force it to stop.

The desperate criminal was not to be outdone and used the carriage to hit the opponent several times in order to escape. After several rounds of fighting, the carriage was finally defeated and the situation slowed down. When the two were side by side, Li Ze saw the right time, handed the reins to Bai Xin to control, grabbed the roof of the opponent's carriage, flew over, and kicked the masked man away.

He tightened the reins and stopped the carriage. He drew out his dagger, cut the ropes, and drove the horses away to prevent the stranger from driving the carriage away.

Bai Xin also stopped his carriage and asked Min'er to hide in the carriage and not come out.

She and Li Ze stood in front of the car, each holding an anesthetic needle in one hand and a dagger in the other, cooperating tacitly in a defensive posture.

"No matter who is inside you, I will count to three and you must come out, otherwise we will set the car on fire!" Li Ze shouted threateningly.

"There are hostages inside!" Bai Xin whispered to protect the hostages' safety.

Li Zeming nodded and signaled Bai Xin and the others to stand on each side of the car. Bai Xin would be responsible for lifting the door curtain, while Li Ze would be responsible for attacking the enemy.

The moment the door curtain was lifted, the masked man who fell to the ground attacked Li Ze from behind. Bai Xin took aim and shot out the anesthetic needle, numbing the man behind him again.

In a flash, two masked men with knives attacked from the car. Bai Xin and Li Ze quickly retreated behind them and took aim at the same time, knocking the two men down in an instant.

After that, he heard no more noise. Li Ze stretched his head and looked inside. He saw that there were no other criminals except the tied-up woman huddled in the corner. He signaled Bai Xin to rescue the people while he stood guard outside the car.
