Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

Chapter 57 Sudden Assassination

Dugu Jingyao knocked Dugu Jingyue on the head. "You, you, how come you're becoming more and more slick?" Dugu Jingyue playfully stuck out her tongue. The matter was over. Dugu Moyan and Chu Xinghan also sat on the mat. They were just waiting for the sprinting trio to return. It was time to go back to the mansion.

Because the distance was a bit far, Si Jian asked Shi Jian to stay and help pack up. Si Jian trotted all the way to the flower field and shouted, "Your Highness, Mr. Chu, Miss Chu, it's time for us to prepare to go back home!" Li Ruo also replied loudly, "I know, we'll be there soon!" After that, she turned around and said to Chu Xingchen, "Cousin, please help me pick these flowers!" Although Chu Xingchen was speechless, he nodded. After all, he was the oldest and a man. He really regretted coming with them. It would be better to go fishing!

Just then, Chu Xingchen heard a movement. The next second, an arrow whizzed through the leaves. Fortunately, Chu Xingchen was quick-witted and stopped Li Ruo and Chu Xinyu behind him. He blocked the arrow with a flower basket. Suddenly, a dozen men in black emerged from the flowers. Seeing that the situation was not good, they whispered to Li Ruo and Chu Xinyu, "Run, go back and get help!" Although Chu Xingchen was not as skilled in martial arts as his brother, he had at least been taught by a master. He only had a dagger with him, and their presence would only affect his performance. Chu Xinyu was reluctant to leave, but Li Ruo acted decisively, telling Chu Xingchen to take care with a look, and then pulled Chu Xinyu out.

Si Jian was just outside the flowers. When he saw a group of men in black rushing out, he didn't care about anything else. He quickly drew the soft sword from his waist and joined the battle. While Li Ruo and Chu Xinyu were running away, swords kept shooting at them. Si Jian helped them block them and told them to run quickly.

Li Ruo and Chu Xinyu quickly ran out of the flowers, feeling that they had escaped death. However, they did not dare to relax, fearing that there were still people nearby. So when they saw the main force but it had not yet arrived, they shouted loudly. Chu Xinyu, in particular, was facing an assassination attempt for the first time, so she shouted especially loudly: "Help! Help! Come quickly!"

The others thought they had misheard, but Chu Xinghan recognized it: "It sounds like Xinyu's voice!" Dugu Jingyao and Li Chu reacted immediately. Dugu Jingyao ordered the guards: "You take a team to pick up Her Royal Highness the Princess and Yu'er! The rest of you come with me to help Master Chu!" Li Chu also said: "Feng Shengyi, you come with me too!

Before leaving, Dugu Jingyao said to Chu Xinghan, "Prince Chu, please help take care of Yue'er. There is a team left for you." Chu Xinghan was even a little worried: "Princess Yi'an, why don't you stay and I'll go!" Dugu Jingyao said, "It's okay. I also grew up in the military camp. You just need to protect Yue'er, Xinyu and Ruo'er. This is also very important. They are the apple of your family's eye!" Chu Xinghan could only agree.

But in fact, the group of people were near the flowers and did not chase here. However, for safety reasons, Chu Xinghan asked the girls to return to the carriage first, while he and other guards stayed there.

Elsewhere, in the flowerbed, a fierce fight was underway. Chu Xingchen and Si Jian had originally thought that with only a dozen or so men in black, they should be able to take them out. However, they were wrong. Not only did more men in black keep appearing, but their martial arts skills were also quite impressive! They had already been playing outside all day and were already tired. They simply couldn't withstand such exhaustion. Chu Xingchen, having joined the fight first and having spent the entire afternoon running through the flowers with his two sisters, was gradually losing strength. Si Jian, in an attempt to save Chu Xingchen, even had his arm nicked by a sword from the enemy.

Fortunately, reinforcements arrived quickly. Someone had originally suggested calling it quits, but who knew that the leader felt that since they had come all this time, if they couldn't complete the mission and lost so many men, it would be a complete loss! So, even with the arrival of reinforcements, they didn't retreat. Dugu Jingyao said, "Let me see who dares to act so unruly in my territory!" With that, he took a sword from the person next to him and joined the battle.
