Princess Promotion

After the barbarian stabilized his body, he looked around hurriedly. When he saw the black feather arrow on the ground, his face changed immediately. He shouted a few words in the barbarian language and ran away with his men.

Just as the barbarian turned around to flee, the second black feather arrow shot towards him.

In the distance, a group of people were riding horses towards this side.

Yao Chuguang stood motionless on the spot. The arrow flew towards him without him even noticing it. Even an Olympic champion would bow down to such a skill.

Yao Chuguang thought he would scream and roll on the ground. In the past, when he had nightmares and was chased by ghosts, he would be so scared that he rolled and crawled on the ground.

Only by experiencing it can you know that the real fear is that your whole body becomes stiff and your blood circulation is blocked. In layman's terms, your legs are weak and you can't run.

Looking at the black feather arrow on the ground, Yao Chuguang didn't recognize it, but no matter whether it was an enemy or a friend, with such accuracy and his horse lost, it would be better to stay put.

If this is misunderstood, it will be a waste of time and you may end up dying in a foreign land!

From far to near, under the scorching sun, a row of people wearing black armor and holding long spears raised a cloud of dust. The murderous aura that blew towards them hit them directly in the face along with the dust.

Yao Chuguang racked his brains with his limited knowledge of Chinese, and finally concluded that this was a perfect expression of the heroic and domineering spirit of the soldiers going to the ancient battlefield.

A strong black horse's hoof stamped twice in front of Yao Chuguang, and the horse's panting startled Yao Chuguang back to reality.

I've heard of an idiom called "tall and big horse" before. This warhorse perfectly embodies this idiom. When Yao Chuguang got closer, she found that she was not even as tall as the horse's back.

If the horse she had just ridden was still beside her, the contrast would have been even more tragic. It would have been like riding a donkey instead of a horse.

Looking up along the horse's back, what comes into view is the inverted triangle with perfect waist-to-body ratio, and further up are a pair of bright yet cold eyes. It's not that he looks bad, quite the opposite. Even though the proportions of his facial features are perfect, those eyes still catch people's attention at a glance.

There is a kind of person who can be spotted at a glance even in a huge crowd. Unparalleled handsomeness is probably the deepest feeling in one's heart.

The man didn't care that he was being stared at. He glanced at the deputy general next to him with a somewhat cold expression.

The deputy general dismounted, pulled up the black-feathered arrow from the ground, and asked, "Who are you?"

When Yao Chuguang ran away, he did not run towards Hecheng. One reason was that there were ambushes outside Hecheng in this era without mobile phone positioning.

If you deviate from the direction and run directly into the barbarians' lair, you will be sending yourself to death.

The second spy would definitely guess that she was going to escape to Hecheng, and if he ambushed her directly on the road to Hecheng, he would be doomed.

Therefore, the safest direction is to run towards Western Zhou. Although the relationship between Western Zhou and Qi was not very good, because both sides had a common enemy, the barbarians, as the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so they have been at peace for so many years.

As long as she escapes to Western Zhou and waits until the Li family has almost dealt with the barbarians, it would be the safest thing for her to find an opportunity to detour back to Hecheng.

To take a step back, if the princess's identity had to be exposed, the Western Zhou Dynasty could at most ask the State of Qi for some ransom and benefits, and at least they could save their lives.

Yao Chuguang knelt down with a thud, imitating the way a maid begged for mercy after making a mistake, and kowtowed several times. When she looked up, her face was already wet with tears, and she bit her lip and cried, "I am from Yicheng. My name is Shen San, a barbarian siege slave. I have come here to escape. I thank the general for saving my life. I cannot repay you today, but I will repay you tomorrow."

After Yao Chuguang finished speaking, the surroundings fell silent. The deputy general did not ask any further questions, but just looked at her with a strange expression.

For a moment, no one responded and there was only the sound of Yao Chuguang crying.

Yao Chuguang raised her head with tearful eyes and looked at the man above her in confusion. Strangely, her eyes, which had always been as cold as swords, began to drift and look elsewhere.

How should I put it, the atmosphere was a bit awkward for a moment. Just imagine that anyone would be terrified to be surrounded by a group of tall and strong men with expressionless faces.

No! What's wrong with these people? Yao Chuguang believes that her appearance, even if not stunning, is definitely enough to be a beauty.

These grown men look righteous and don't seem like the kind of people who are attracted by women, but they can't be so incapable of showing even the most basic sympathy for women!

How could such a beautiful woman cry in front of me for a long time without anyone comforting her or even saying a word? This is outrageous.

It was really hard for one person to continue the one-man show. Yao Chuguang couldn't help but start to think wildly. If her experience happened in a TV series, it would be a typical hero saving the beauty plot. Why was it so embarrassing for her?

Is it because she didn't faint?

In TV dramas, the heroine is often chased by villains, and the hero comes out to rescue her. The heroine then faints in his arms, and from then on begins a tragic love story of on-and-off relationships.

When she watched TV dramas before, she used to complain about how she would faint every time she was rescued. Could it be that if she didn't faint, she would have to face such an embarrassing situation?

Just as Yao Chuguang was considering whether to faint, the deputy general next to him finally spoke: "You are running in the wrong direction. This is the border of Western Zhou."

Yao Chuguang was stunned. Could it be that they thought she ran in the wrong direction and looked down on her?
