She had suffered too much injustice. She was besieged by Li Heng outside the city of Chang'an, locked up in a water dungeon, and almost bitten to death by an evil poison.

In the court, she was forced to marry.

In the mourning hall, Emperor Su grabbed her neck and threw her onto the coffin, causing her forehead to bleed.

On the first day she arrived here, she was drugged by the King of Xi and besieged by Xiao Yan and hundreds of archers. The King of Qi shot an arrow at her.

Shi Si, Li Yuanyang, Li Jie, Li Heng and Mu Yun plotted against her and bullied her.

Obviously she did nothing wrong and never bullied anyone.

...

Gu Wenxuan's voice came from outside the tent: "Princess"

Li Huaijin quickly stood up, tucked the corner of the quilt tightly, and left the king's tent. Gu Wenxuan looked at Li Huaijin's eyes and saw that they were red and swollen, with a slight frown between his brows:

"What's wrong with you? What does my cousin Princess want from me?"

Li Huaijin's eyes flickered, and the boy's voice became increasingly sharp:

"I am fine. The King of Xi abused hundreds of slaves, most of whom were from the Central Plains. They were all seriously injured, and some were pregnant."

"Once these slaves are seriously injured, they will not be able to do hard labor and will only be thrown to the wolves. You are responsible for rescuing those slaves and sending them to Jizhou."

"If a man in the army wants to do something illegal, he will be killed without mercy, and his entire clan will be implicated."

Gu Wenxuan immediately bowed and saluted: "Yes"

He was hesitant, but also wanted to show concern for Mu Jinan. He didn't know how she was doing, and was worried that she was too sad, so he could only ask:

"I just came over there and vaguely heard them say that the King of Qi bullied the princess."

"what happened"

Li Huaijin felt that someone was deliberately manipulating and spreading rumors to damage her reputation. Who would use such means? He thought to himself:

"If the rumors are even worse, saying that she is not chaste and is sabotaging the marriage, then the King of Xi will have a pretext to kill the princess and it will be a natural rebellion."

"This is the same plan as when Xiao Wan spread rumors in Chang'an that her innocence was ruined by the King of Liang. This kind of dirty trick to damage a woman's reputation is probably done by that vicious woman Mu Yun."

He immediately warned: "Send out the Flame Killing Army. Anyone who spreads this kind of news in the grassland will be killed regardless of their tribe."

Gu Wenxuan saw that he looked nervous, and thought something must have happened. He was a man, how could he not understand anything? He asked with concern:

"Princess, are you okay?"

Li Huaijin shook his head, thinking of her helpless and desperate expression just now, he was still a little scared at this moment, and his heart ached slightly:

"I don't know who hurt her. Fortunately, I arrived in time. Otherwise, I dare not imagine how devastated she would be. She would go crazy."

Gu Wenxuan clenched his fists. Mu Jinan was also his cousin. She had no choice but to be sent here to marry, and she was also beaten. He gritted his teeth and said:

"Once we find out who hurt the princess, we will kill him."

His back gradually disappeared.

Two days later, that night, a waning moon hung halfway in the sky, the stars were sparse, and a cold wind was howling across the grassland. In a remote and vast grassland, hundreds of Flame-killing Army soldiers were hiding on the hillside.

They had sharp eyes, wore armor, carried bows and arrows, had Tang swords on their waists, and each held a wooden stick in his hand.

Leading the group were Mu Jinan, Gu Wenxuan, and Li Huaijin who was suffering from a leg injury. He was worried because Mu Jinan insisted on coming.

I heard that wolves often appear around here. I can vaguely see the wreckage in the distance. It's chilly and a bit creepy under the cold moonlight. There are also clothes torn by wolves on the grass.

I saw a group of warriors in the distance, escorting two hundred slaves towards that direction.

At a glance, you can see that some of the figures who are not even as tall as the warrior's waist are children. Under the moonlight, you can see that some people have particularly big bellies, and they are pregnant women.

There were also men who were beaten half to death and had hunched backs, their hands tied with ropes forming a line. Why was there no crying?

They were gagged so as not to alarm the wolves.

After a while, the slaves' feet were tied up, and the warriors began to retreat gradually, riding on their horses, only to hear a whistle from the horse's back.

The cold moonlight shines down, reflecting on the endless grassland.

In an instant, dozens of warriors galloped on their horses and disappeared from sight.

Suddenly, I heard "Awoo, Awoo"

A loud wolf howl echoed across the grassland, shaking the heaven and earth.

Following them came a pack of wolves running over from afar. Under the moonlight, one could clearly see forty or fifty wolves with green eyes running towards them.

Mu Jinan's dark eyes were fixed on the distance. She mustered up her courage, felt a chill down her spine, her hands were shaking, and she kept muttering in her heart:

"These are wolves, a pack of wolves. I am a modern man. God bless me, Chairman Mao bless me, don't let me be taken away by wolves."

Gu Wenxuan, who was standing by, felt a little sore in his hand as he held the sword. Li Huaijin's eyes under the snow fox mask were fixed on the wolf pack with a grim look. He stood up and gestured with his right hand slightly upwards.

The Flame-killing Army stood up, and everyone jumped onto their horses, with upright postures and solemn looks.

Li Huaijin gave the order, and the young man's voice was sharp and majestic:

"Two hundred cavalrymen light torches and surround the slaves. Two hundred tiger and leopard cavalrymen rescue the slaves. One hundred archers stand ready."

In an instant, five hundred men and horses were seen marching in an orderly manner, with torches in their hands lit up, and the flames illuminated the night. Gu Wenxuan led the Flame-killing Army on horseback, rushing into the wolf pack at lightning speed.

The wolves quickly changed their formation and gathered together. Their cries gradually changed from wailing to howling and roaring, their voices filled with anger.

"Awoo, awoo, awoo..."

It was too creepy. Listening to the howling of so many wolves, Mu Jinan was already surrounded by the wolf pack and she just felt her scalp tingling.

Dozens of wolves kept running around the crowd, and the Flame-killing Army quickly surrounded them and drove the wolves to the periphery.

More than a dozen wolves rushed towards the horse hooves and bit them. More than a dozen wolves found the gaps in the crowd and wanted to enter and attack the vulnerable slaves.

“Ouch, ouch!”

"Ah, ah"

There were also the sounds of horses neighing and the Flame-killing Army fighting.

The wolf king, the leader of the pack, was strong and powerful, with fangs bared and a fierce look in his eyes.

It pounced on the horse's hoof and bit it to pieces. The horse was frightened and neighed in the air.

Gu Wenxuan, who was sitting on the horse, immediately jumped into the air and drew the sword in his hand out of its sheath.

The young man was full of vigor, with a faint smile on his face, his handsome face full of murderous intent, staring into the eyes of the wolf king.

A ray of moonlight shone on the cold sword. The blade was sharp. He held the sword in his right hand and leaned forward to face the wolf king's eyes.

The wolf king dodged to the right, showing his fangs, and attacked Gu Wenxuan's leg. He turned his wrist slightly, attacked the wolf king's head with his left fist, and rushed straight to the wolf king's body with his right hand.

He pulled out the blade, blood flowed down the blade, and the wolf king fell to the ground.

"Ah, ah, ah"

At this moment, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry had cut the ropes on the slaves and removed the rough cloth that was blocking their mouths. All they could hear was the children crying:

"Ah, ah, mother, father"

A miserable cry was heard: "Ah, ah"
