The evil woman is arrogant and the cold emperor can't sleep at night

"is it?"

Shen Tangan blinked her lively eyes. In her understanding, the red spider lilies all exuded a somewhat enchanting aura. Could it be that this was how she felt in the eyes of King Chen?

He shook his head, put this strange thought behind him, glanced at the person next to him, and changed the subject.

"My Lord, is Qianji seriously injured?"

"Well... his life is not in danger yet. You can go and treat him when you have time."

Mu Chenye's eyes dimmed slightly. If he had known that she cared so much about the injured, he should not have used Qianji as an excuse.

"call out!"

Suddenly, there was a sharp sound of an arrow piercing the air behind him. Shen Tangan's pupils shrank slightly, and before he could turn around, he was instantly lifted into the air and successfully avoided the attack.

The first time is unfamiliar, the second time is familiar. This time she was obviously used to it and was not panicked at all.

Mu Chenye held her in his arms, turned around, and landed steadily on a rather sturdy bamboo. As soon as a sharp arrow fell to the ground, hundreds of sharp arrows came at him like a torrential rain.

Shen Tangan had never seen such a horrifying scene before. She was so frightened that she hugged his waist tightly. She didn't want to die yet!

"Hold tight."

As soon as Mu Chenye finished speaking, he felt the hands on his waist becoming more and more forceful, and a barely perceptible smile flashed across the corners of his mouth.

His eyes narrowed, his brows were full of fierceness, his left hand held her tightly, and he used the bamboo to retreat backwards, while his right hand swung the sword, blocking the arrows approaching him one after another.

The sword was swung so tightly that it was impenetrable. The sword light flashed, as if forming an indestructible barrier that protected the two of them.

However, the sharp arrows kept coming like a tide, one wave after another, without any sign of stopping. Some sharp arrows even brushed against the corners of Mu Chenye's clothes, which was extremely thrilling.

After an unknown amount of time, the dense array of arrows finally stopped. Before Shen Tangan could catch his breath, the bamboo forest suddenly shook violently, and many men in black rushed out from all directions.

Her eyes widened instantly and she looked up at the people around her. These people were coming for him.

Seeing how calm he looks, it must be not the first time he has encountered such a situation. In this city of Kyoto, there are many people who want to kill him!

"Don't be afraid."

Mu Chenye lowered his eyes and gave her a comforting look, but he unexpectedly met her clear and bright eyes.

Although she looked surprised, she was not afraid at all, and there were some emotions in her eyes that were difficult for him to understand.

Now is not the time to worry about these things. We must get rid of the man in black in front of us as soon as possible.

He didn't expect these people to track him all the way here and were eager to attack him outside Kyoto.

"My Lord, can you defeat them alone?"

Shen Tangan took a quick glance and knew that the killer on the opposite side was no ordinary person, most likely a death squad.

The only mission of the suicide squad is to kill the target, and there is no possibility of retreat. Moreover, the other side has more people and more power, and they only have one capable fighter, and he has to bring her with him, so their chances of winning are really slim!

"Don't worry, I will take you home safely. I promise you."

Mu Chenye's eyes softened and fell on her face, and his left hand hugged her tighter.

If he were alone on normal days, these people would naturally not be able to get close to him, but the situation is different today. Even so, he will definitely protect her.

He raised his eyes, their expressions as cold as ice, and fell on the killer closest to him, with murderous intent emerging!

The assassin did not hesitate and surrounded the two men at a command.

The scene suddenly became extremely tense. The flashes of swords and shadows flashed quickly in front of Shen Tangan's eyes, so fast that she could hardly see the substance. All her ears were filled with the "clang-dang" sound of weapons colliding.

Mu Chenye's figure shuttled among the assassins like a ghost, sword rising and falling, blood splattering everywhere.

Each of his moves was swift and precise. Although the assassins attacked desperately, they could not gain any advantage in front of him.

However, there were too many assassins on the opposite side. When one wave fell, another wave quickly took their place, as if there was no end.

Shen Tangan listened to the increasingly heavy breathing in his ears and knew that they could not continue in this stalemate. They had to find a way to escape as soon as possible.

She quietly reached into her sleeve and pinched the porcelain bottle in her sleeve. This was the poison she had carefully prepared just in case. Who could have expected that today would be such a coincidence that she would encounter such a scene.

He stretched his neck, leaned close to Mu Chenye's ear, and whispered.

"Your Majesty, I will throw a bottle out later and you smash it."

"it is good."

Mu Chenye responded in a deep voice, the sword in his hand showing no sign of stopping.

Just as the assassins rushed forward again, Shen Tangan quickly threw the porcelain bottle in his hand and shouted.

"Your Majesty!"

The assassins never expected that a seemingly weak woman would actually use a "hidden weapon". They were so close to her that it was too late to dodge and they all scattered in panic.

Mu Chenye had already responded to her shouting by cutting off the bamboo branch with a sword and piercing the porcelain bottle.

In an instant, thick smoke rolled out. Shen Tangan covered his mouth and nose with one hand and Mu Chenye with the other.

However, in the blink of an eye, Mu Chenye had retreated dozens of meters away. Without any pause, he turned around and flew with her towards the depths of the bamboo forest.

The bamboo forest was located halfway up the mountain. They crossed the bamboo forest and went straight into the mountain.

The mountain has complex terrain and is an ideal hiding place.

Mu Chenye stopped only when he saw a cave and gently put her on the ground.

When she landed again, Shen Tangan's legs felt a little weak. After flying for so long, she had not yet fully adapted.

"Your Majesty, do you know who sent these assassins?"

She sat down on the ground, pounded her legs, and asked casually.

Unexpectedly, there was no response for a long time. When he looked up, he saw that Mu Chenye's face was as pale as paper. After taking a closer look, he found that his left arm was injured at some point.

Moreover, the wound was flowing with black blood, but even so, he still held her and flew for such a long time.

"Your Majesty!"

She quickly stood up and supported him. The poison had already taken effect and Mu Chenye could no longer stand steadily.

When he looked back at her, his eyes were filled with guilt.

"I'm sorry for involving you. I have already set off the fireworks before coming here, and the secret guards will be here soon. You... cough!"

Before he could finish his words, he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"My Lord, stop talking and sit down first!"

Shen Tangan frowned, it was obvious how powerful this poison was, and these people were clearly determined to kill him.

Mu Chenye held her hand tightly and spoke again.

"The terrain here is complicated, and it will take some time for the secret guards to find this place. If the assassins arrive first, don't worry about me and leave first. Their target is me, and they won't chase you relentlessly."

"understood."

Shen Tangan's face was gloomy. He listened to him quietly and helped him sit down on the stone.

She tore open his sleeve and got closer to examine his wound.

There is no poison in this world that she cannot cure. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Are you looking down on her?

Mu Chenye was stunned by her indifferent look, and he obediently let her do whatever she wanted, not daring to say another word.

He lowered his eyes and looked at her, somewhat dazed. If he was destined to die here today, it would be good to have her by his side...

His vision gradually became blurred, and he no longer had the energy to use his internal strength.

Because when he was poisoned at the beginning, he found that the more he forcibly used his internal energy, the more violent the poison became in his body.

I guess since they failed to kill him last time, they used a poison specifically targeting him this time just in case.

"My Lord, you are so poisonous...My Lord!"

Finally I figured out the composition of the poison. Just when I wanted to let him have a good rest while I went out to find herbs, I looked up and saw that he had fallen into a coma without me noticing.

I raised my hand to take his pulse and my eyes widened in shock. How could the poison spread so quickly?

It shouldn’t be!

Could it be that because he escaped with me, I forcibly used up too much internal energy, allowing the poison to run in my body for too long, causing it to spread to this extent?

She immediately took out a silver needle and sealed his heart meridian. When she raised her hand to take out the porcelain bottle, she remembered that she had exchanged today's pills for blood marrow grass from the old man.
