The prince rode forward, his eyes unclear, "Father, why are you so anxious? The guards are all behind us."

The emperor just breathed a sigh of relief, but before long, a group of men in black jumped out of the forest.

Song Qinian, who was hiding in the dark, watched this scene silently. When he saw Cheng Bingwen behind the prince, he raised his eyebrows, but was not surprised.

However, he did not expect that the prince had so many assassins, and his family wealth was not enough. This would only be possible if he had embezzled a lot of money.

The emperor's face changed as he was surrounded. He looked at the imperial guards beside him and said, "Idiot! Protect me!"

At this time, the prince laughed.

The emperor's face changed, and as he recalled the journey, he realized instantly: "It's you? Evil son, do you know what you are doing?"

The prince smiled and said, "Father, please stop struggling and go in peace."

The emperor saw that the Imperial Guards beside him had not made any move, and he understood what was going on. He then pretended to be calm and looked at the Crown Prince: "Huai Ling, why are you doing this? You are the Crown Prince, and you will naturally be able to sit in this position in the future."

The emperor was only angry at his own negligence, but he did not expect that this evil son was so bold. He could only suppress his anger and deal with him.

However, the Crown Prince laughed when he heard this: "Crown Prince? Father, do you really think I don't know? You think I'm not as smart as my fifth and seventh brothers, so you're afraid, and that's why you made me the Crown Prince."

"So they will come after me first, Father. I am just a chess piece of yours, right?"

The emperor was shocked when he heard this and became angry again: "My kindness to you is not fake."

He admitted that he thought so, but his love for him over the years was not fake.

The prince snorted coldly, completely unconvinced.

"Do it, and leave a breath."

The emperor immediately opened his eyes wide and looked at Li Huailing: "No!"

The next second, the Yulin Guards and the group of men in black immediately drew their swords and stepped forward.

The sound of dead wood breaking attracted the attention of the people in front.

Jiang Wan covered her mouth and hid behind a tree. She had no idea that Cheng Bingwen had already defected to the prince at this time. However, she had no time to think about it now. She held her breath and crouched to move to the other side.

The prince was startled when he heard the noise and glanced at the people around him: "Go after them!"

This was a remote place he had chosen, but he never expected that there would still be someone here. But no matter who it was, once he saw them, he would have no chance of getting out alive.

As soon as the prince gave the order, dozens of men in black went out instantly.

Song Qinian also looked over and saw only a blurry figure that seemed somewhat like the fabric of Jiang Wan's clothes today.

Thinking of this, Song Qinian's eyes narrowed, and he chased in that direction without caring about the danger. Although he was not sure, he did not dare to hold on to that glimmer of hope.

Jiang Wan ran forward desperately, and looked back while running. She saw a group of men in black chasing her with swords in their hands.

Jiang Wan glanced to the left and twisted her ankle.

The moment she fell to the ground, a strong hand held her waist.

Jiang Wan turned around and looked at the person who came: "Song Qinian?"

Song Qinian's face was gloomy, and he said coldly: "Shut up."

He never thought that Jiang Wan would actually come here. If he hadn't arrived in time, he couldn't imagine the consequences.

When Jiang Wan saw the familiar figure, the fear in her heart spread. Tears welled up in her eyes. She huddled in his arms, clutching his clothes tightly. "Qinian... you're finally here..."

When Song Qinian saw her like this, his heart ached and he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. He didn't say anything, but just hugged him tightly.

At this moment, a group of men in black surrounded them quickly like ghosts. They wore masks on their faces, revealing only a pair of cold and ruthless eyes, and a suffocating breath.

Song Qinian frowned slightly, drew his sword with his other hand, and said to the person in his arms, "Close your eyes."

After saying that, a group of people raised their swords and attacked the two men.

Song Qinian went forward and got entangled with several people.

His swordsmanship was sharp and exquisite, and each sword was filled with a fierce sword energy, which for a moment made his opponents dare not get close to him easily.

Because he was with Jiang Wan, Song Qinian couldn't fully display his skills and could only fight on the defensive.

But this group of people were obviously not ordinary guards. Several men in black seemed tireless. Even though they were injured, they still rushed towards Song Qinian without caring about their lives.

Song Qinian's face darkened. If they continued to waste time like this, they would probably both end up dead.

He patted Jiang Wan gently and whispered, "I'll lead them away later. Run to the right. Remember, don't stop."

Jiang Wan looked at him worriedly: "Qinian..."

Song Qinian didn't say anything else. He let go of Jiang Wan, picked up the sword and walked towards the few people.

"Come on!"

Seeing this, Jiang Wan looked at him deeply, then turned around and ran quickly in the direction he said.

But someone immediately chased after him, but was stopped by Song Qinian.

Seeing this, several people stabbed at him even more desperately.

Jiang Wan leaned against a tree, panting, and contacted Qibao.

(Shippo, he won't be in danger if he just leaves like this, right? Where is the heroine now?)

Qibao exclaimed: (Host, the heroine is not in the forest!!!)

(what?)

Jiang Wan immediately stood up, gritting her teeth: (You better explain clearly what you mean by the heroine is not here!)

Qibao spoke tremblingly: (The host...she is in the palace)

Jiang Wan: "..."

Helplessly, she ran back in the direction she had just come from. She swore that she would give Qibao a good beating!

When Jiang Wan arrived, there were already several bodies lying on the ground, and Song Qinian was still entangled with the remaining two men in black, all of whom were obviously injured.

At this time, Song Qinian kicked a man away and stabbed him with the sword in his hand, but the man in black behind him also raised his sword and came towards him.

When Song Qinian turned around, he immediately wanted to raise his sword to block, but when the man in black was still a little distance away from him, his body stopped and suddenly fell to the side.

Jiang Wan behind him loosened the sword in his hand, obviously frightened.

Song Qinian's expression changed, and fear rose in his heart: "Why are you back?"

Jiang Wan looked at her hands, her voice trembling: "I'm afraid of you..."

Song Qinian sighed, held his abdomen, stood up, and walked towards her, his voice soft, "Don't be afraid, I will never let anyone bully you even if I die."

At this moment, a man on the ground moved, grabbed the sword beside him, and immediately turned over and stabbed towards Jiang Wan.

As for why it was Jiang Wan, it was because he was not sure whether his sword could kill Song Qinian with one strike, so he could only choose Jiang Wan who was obviously easier to kill.

Song Qinian's face changed and he pounced towards Jiang Wan in an instant. The sword that was originally aimed at Jiang Wan pierced through his shoulder.

Song Qinian paused, ignoring the pain in his body, and swung the sword in his hand backwards. A blood mark instantly appeared on the black-clothed man's neck and he fell to the ground.

Jiang Wan looked at the blood that kept flowing from Song Qinian's shoulder and panicked for a moment: "Qinian!"

Although she knew that this was a necessary part of the plot, she still couldn't help but feel touched when it really happened before her eyes. After all, it was happening right in front of her.

Seeing this scene, Qibao sighed silently.
