Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

"Princess, what should we do now?"

In the cellar.

Ye Cailiang looked at Shen Wanying with a nervous expression.

It was obvious that the group of men in black at the beginning were just bait. Now that Ran Ming and the White Horse Cavalry had been lured away, only these few people were left. How could they stop the aggressive men in black?

Shen Wanying's face looked a little ugly. She understood that if she couldn't stop the man in black and the blood transfusion was interrupted, Chu Ning would have no chance of survival!

He turned his head and took a deep look at Chu Ning, and found that his originally dark lips were slowly improving. A hint of determination flashed in his eyes.

Blood transfusion works!

Never let others interrupt!

Shen Wanying said solemnly, "Doctor Chen, continue to give blood transfusions to His Highness, and leave the outside matters to me!"

Then, he turned to look at Ye Cailiang and said, "Master, please gather all the men in the village. As long as they are adults, take up arms to resist!"

After a pause, Shen Wanying said with determination: "I will go with you. No matter who wants to harm the King of Chu tonight, they must go over my dead body!"

After saying this, Shen Wanying walked out, and her maid Xiaoqing immediately followed.

"Miss, I'm with you!"

Seeing that the Princess of Chu was about to go up in person, Ye Cailiang hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and made a prompt decision:

"Immediately gather all the men in the village. Don't let them interrupt His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu's treatment!"

At the command, men, women, old and young in the village took up their weapons and, under the leadership of thirty guards, relied on the tall wall in the backyard to defend themselves.

In the courtyard, Shen Wanying calmly commanded: "Bring all the poles in the house, and as long as they use the flying claws, you use the poles to poke the flying claws down.

Be careful that they may throw torches in, and the people in front may take tables and chairs, so be prepared.

The door must be blocked, and they must not be allowed to break through. Take some sundries and pile them at the door."

Under Shen Wanying's command, the people in the villa worked together, from the initial chaos to gradual stability.

The men in black outside were very anxious. The commotion here was so loud that if they didn't kill Chu Ning quickly, if the troops in the city came to support them, the situation would be unfavorable to them.

The leader immediately roared: "Knock the door open, we must kill Chu Ning tonight!"

At the command, the men in black launched a fierce attack.

For a moment, shouts of killing were heard in the villa.

While the two sides were fighting fiercely, the Crown Prince and a group of princes were looking on from a high slope outside the villa.

Although they were accompanied by many people, no one was willing to help.

The prince stared at the flames rising from the villa with a sneer on his face, and a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes.

"I can't believe that someone actually took action in the villa. Even if Prince Chu can be rescued, I'm afraid it will be difficult to escape the enemy's hands."

The second prince on the side raised his lips slightly: "Brother Crown Prince, don't you plan to send people to rescue?"

"save?"

The prince laughed and said: "I have not brought many people with me. Without knowing the strength of the enemy, how can I risk sending troops to rescue them?

"But why are you still making sarcastic remarks here, second brother? Why don't you send someone to rescue the eighteenth brother?"

If you want to trick me into getting involved, you’re still a little naive.

It would be a good thing if I was rescued. If I wasn’t, my father might think I was an assassin.

While deep in thought, the Second Prince said calmly, "The situation is unclear now. If I rashly go there with my men, others will think that I am in league with the assassin."

No one is a fool. Going there now will not only do no good but will only bring trouble.

Besides, it would be to their advantage to let the assassin kill Chu Ning, so why would they send troops to rescue him?

They wait here for Chu Ning to be killed, and then lead the troops to eliminate the assassin. Once they can sit back and watch Chu Ning be defeated, they can also kill the assassin and gain merit, killing two birds with one stone!

Upon hearing this, the surrounding princes looked at each other and revealed a tacit understanding.

Chu Ning’s death would benefit all of them!

As long as Chu Ning falls, the Chu Palace and the Shen family will be finished.

They had been eyeing the facial mask business and the grain store business for so long, and finally they were able to get them.

As soon as they heard the news of Chu Ning's death, they would immediately return to the city to rob the facial masks and rice shops.

But at this time, the usually quiet Eighth Prince suddenly said: "The battle here is so fierce. If father knew, he would definitely send people to support us."

The prince laughed when he heard this and said, "Don't worry, there won't be enough time for the news to be reported back from here and for the emperor to send troops to support us.

Maybe by the time the soldiers from the city arrive, Chu Ning will be dead!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the princes around smiled.

Regardless of whether the emperor would take action or not, it was too late.

There are at least two hundred men in black who are attacking the villa this time. With so many people besieging, they will definitely be able to reach the inside of the villa within three quarters of an hour.

By then, Chu Ning would definitely be dead!

But just as everyone was excitedly waiting for the news of Chu Ning's death, a cavalryman rode up and reported:

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, the Princess of Chu has personally led the people of the villa to retreat to the backyard and is resisting. The attack of the men in black has been thwarted and it is difficult for them to break in for the time being."

After these words were spoken, the prince's face looked a little ugly.

"These people are so incompetent. So many people can't even capture a small villa!" The prince snorted coldly, feeling a little disappointed.

The fourth prince at the back frowned and said, "Strange, the strength of these men in black seems to be somewhat different from the assassins who were used as bait at the beginning. Their strength is not that strong."

The second prince sneered: "Don't worry, everyone. There are not many people in the villa. Even if they can hold their ground for a short time, the men in black will continue to attack. I believe they will be able to break in soon."

The coldness on the prince's face eased a lot, and he sneered: "Wait a little longer, maybe the news of the eighteenth brother's death will come soon."

They had no brotherly feelings towards Chu Ning and wished that Chu Ning would die in Liuyun Villa as soon as possible.

At this moment in the villa, with the continuous attack of the men in black, the door of the backyard was finally unable to resist and was knocked open!

"Charge them in!" The men in black rushed in like a tide.

"Protect the princess!"

"No, I won't leave. I must stop them!" Shen Wanying refused to leave and looked determined to stay.

The guard was immediately anxious: "Princess, you can't get into trouble. Go to the cellar quickly and leave this to us!"

But the leader of the men in black who rushed in sneered: "None of you will survive, kill them all!"

At the command, the men in black rushed over frantically.

The palace guards and the people from the villa were surrounded and retreated to the middle of the yard, protecting Shen Wanying inside.

Just as the men in black on both sides were about to launch a fatal attack, a cough was heard.

Then, Chu Ning's voice appeared in everyone's ears.

"I never thought I would see such a lively scene when I woke up. It seems I have caught up with this great show tonight!"

Amid everyone's surprised gazes, Chu Ning was carried out by two people from the villa!
