A farmer's daughter who traveled through time: Marrying a sickly man

Chapter 244 Only when the Emperor is safe, will they be safe

The tent was quiet, but the fight outside was getting more and more intense.

Accompanied by the sound of arrows breaking through the air, several arrows were stuck in the tent.

The people inside were frightened and quickly took a few steps back.

Shen Nian protected the emperor tightly and moved a few steps into the tent. As soon as he moved in, the back of the tent was hit by an arrow.

We are attacked from both sides here and it is no longer safe.

Several adults also looked at Shen Nian, waiting for him to make a decision.

"We can't stay here anymore, let's go out first." Shen Nian said in a low voice.

There was no shelter in the tent, and if arrows kept being shot, they would all become targets.

I must go out and find a place to lean on, so that at least I won’t be attacked from both sides.

"Okay." The emperor was very straightforward and calm at this moment. "Come here together, my lords. Don't disperse when we go out."

"Yes." Several adults quickly agreed, moved closer to the emperor, and followed Shen Nian to prepare to go out first.

Mu Feng and Muchen stood in front with swords in hand to protect them.

At this time, Captain He opened the curtain and came in, "Your Majesty, we can't stay here anymore. We need to move to another place."

Captain He was holding his other arm with one hand and seemed to be injured.

Shen Nian frowned, "Captain He, are you injured?"

"It's nothing, just a minor injury." Captain He's breathing was a little rapid. "There are too many people coming, all of them are highly skilled in martial arts, and there are archers lying in ambush around us. We can't resist them for the time being. Let's find a hidden place to hide first."

The main reason is that they are worried about the emperor being here and cannot act as freely as those assassins.

Shen Nian took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and threw it to Captain He, "Take one of these pills."

He could see that Captain He had suffered more than just minor injuries.

Captain He caught the porcelain bottle thrown by Shen Nian, poured out a pill and fed it into his mouth without any hesitation.

He knew this medicine, the kind that could save lives.

After eating, he was about to give the porcelain bottle to Shen Nian.

Shen Nian said coldly, "Take it first."

Captain He retracted his outstretched hand and put it directly into his arms.

"Let's go, follow me out first." Captain He took the lead and went out of the tent.

"Mu Feng, Muchen, protect the adults." Shen Nian ordered.

"Follow me closely." Shen Nian turned and said to Xia Tian, then protected the emperor and walked out of the tent.

When more than 20 imperial guards saw the emperor and his men coming out, they tightly protected them in the middle. Captain He led the way in front and slowly retreated to a safe place.

After passing through here, there is a mountain over there. Although it is not high, there is a concave place at the foot of the mountain, which is just right for them to hide.

Mu Feng, Muchen, Shen Nian, and the emperor's four secret guards protected them and slowly retreated to the foot of the mountain.

Fortunately, it was night time and it was pitch black everywhere and they couldn't see clearly, so they were able to reach the foot of the mountain without much effort.

Shen Nian asked the emperor and the adults to hide inside, and asked Xia Tian to hide against the mountain wall as well.

They and the Royal Guards stood in the front with swords in hand for defense.

As long as we guard the front here, we will be safe.

After Captain He sent them over, he went to the front to fight.

Shen Nian knew that if they didn't kill all the enemies today, they would not be able to escape.

Seeing that there were secret guards and imperial guards guarding this place, he ordered Mu Feng and Muchen, "You two should also go to the front to help. Be careful."

"Yes." The two men agreed and flew away with their swords.

With the help of Mu Feng and Muchen, Captain He's pressure was greatly relieved.

At this moment, more than a dozen Royal Guards were injured, and even more officers and soldiers were injured.

However, the other side also lost more than a dozen people.

Because the other party was carrying a bow and arrow, Captain He was accidentally hit in the left arm by an arrow.

Mu Feng quickly protected him and retreated first, "Master He, how are you?"

"It's okay." Captain He gritted his teeth, cut off the arrow feathers with his sword, and was about to raise the sword again.

Mu Feng stopped him and said, "Master He, go and deal with this first and come back later."

This substance remaining in the body also affects movement.

"No need, I can still do it." Captain He said and went straight in to fight.

The assassins were also very tenacious. Their numbers kept decreasing, but they had no intention of retreating.

It also caused heavy casualties to the Royal Guards.

Captain He looked at the Royal Guards who kept falling down, and chopped them with red eyes.

After a while, he could no longer lift his injured left arm, and blood kept dripping down the sleeve of his clothes.

Mu Feng couldn't bear to watch this, so he pulled him out and directly took him back to the emperor by the back of his neck.

"What's going on?" Shen Nian came over to check.

"Lord He is injured." After Mu Feng said this, he went straight to the front.

Xia Tian hurried over from the cliff, took out the golden medicine from his sleeve, and handed it to Shen Nian, "Use this."

Shen Nian handed the medicine bottle to Doctor Xu again, "You come and take care of Captain He, I'll go to the front."

Even Captain He was injured, which shows how powerful the person who came is.

Captain He was able to sit on the position of captain of the Imperial Guards, so his martial arts skills must be among the best.

He actually fell into their trap, which shows that the person who came was determined to die if he failed.

After saying this, he worriedly reminded everyone, "Be sure to protect the emperor."

Everyone nodded.

"Brother Shen, be careful." Xia Tian quickly instructed.

"Well, don't worry." Shen Nian glanced at her and flew away.

Captain He saw Shen Nian passing away and urged Doctor Xu to bandage him quickly.

After Doctor Xu finished bandaging the wound, he went back to the front.

The emperor saw her still standing outside looking at Shen Nian's back, and reminded her, "Madam Shen, please come over here. It's not safe over there."

Xia Tian turned around, thanked the emperor, and then slowly walked back.

A few people came over from the side and were seen by her. She was startled and reacted by shouting, "Watch out to the left."

Before he finished speaking, he rushed over and stood in front of the emperor, looking around vigilantly with a dagger in his hand.

The surrounding Royal Guards were already fighting with those people.

The emperor looked at the woman standing in front of him. It would be a lie to say he was not moved. He did not expect that Madam Shen, a mere woman, would have such courage.

Although he had secret guards around him, he didn't need it.

But Mrs. Shen's action made him feel warm.

But as a grown man, he couldn't let a little woman take the lead.

"Mrs. Shen, please come inside."

"No need. The emperor's safety is more important than all of us." Xia Tian said without turning his head.

She was very clear about this. Here, only when the emperor was safe would they be safe.

Xia Tian stood there without moving. The emperor was silent for a while, but finally said nothing more.

Fortunately, the Royal Guards were no pushovers. While injuring six people, they also successfully dealt with the attackers.

Imperial Physicians Xu and Zhang hurriedly bandaged the injured imperial guards.

In the summer, the two imperial doctors just sprinkled some golden wound medicine on them and bandaged them hastily, and that was it. Afraid that they would get an infection, he took out the medicine bottle and asked the two imperial doctors to feed each of them another pill.

Now is the time to need people. They don’t have many people to begin with. If a few more people are removed, who knows what will be waiting for them in the future.

Every extra person counts.

Besides, these royal guards are there to protect them, so she naturally hopes that they are all well.

After the injured here were dealt with, the sound of fighting in front gradually died down, and everyone's heart was lifted again, wondering which side had the upper hand.

After a while, I saw Shen Nian coming over here and I felt relieved.

When Shen Nian came closer, Xia Tian couldn't help but ask, "Brother Shen, what's going on? Have those people been dealt with?"
