Yu Guiwan felt much more relaxed standing next to Bai Huaxu. She dodged swords and knives while calmly thinking about what to do next.

"Okay, I'll believe you this time."

Bai Huaxu spoke at this time, "You take her away first, and we will cover your retreat." He also made the best judgment at the first time.

The words fell.

Yu Guiwan pushed Bai Huaxu away, then reached out to stop Xie Zhiyi from taking her to the window. Xie Zhiyi closed her eyes in fear. Then Yu Guiwan took her and jumped down.

Then, it landed steadily.

The pedestrians below were frightened by the two men's jump and scattered. With Bai Huaxu holding back the assassins, only a few of them chased after them. Yu Guiwan showed no mercy and killed one of the men in black on the spot.

"Killing! Killing!"

Someone suddenly shouted in the street, and the street became even more chaotic. This gave Yu Guiwan an opportunity to take advantage of it. She ran all the way with Xie Zhiyi.

"Uh……"

Yu Guiwan was suddenly slashed on the back. She staggered forward a few steps and immediately threw the sword in her hand, killing the man in black who was chasing her.

"Yu Guiwan, are you okay?"

Xie Zhiyi looked flustered. She looked at the blood gushing out of Yu Guiwan's back and felt fear and panic for the first time in her life.

"Shut up!"

Yu Guiwan endured the pain and whispered.

"Hurry back to the post station."

Yu Guiwan took Xie Zhiyi to a more secluded path, which would take them to the back door of the post station. Along the way, she didn't see anyone Nangong Yi had sent to look for Xie Zhiyi.

It seemed they came prepared, and Xie Sui must have been in trouble. Otherwise, why would all the secret guards he had given them disappear at this moment?

Thinking of this, Yu Guiwan's expression became more solemn.

……

A quarter of an hour later, Yu Guiwan finally brought Xie Zhiyi to the back door of the post station. "Knock on the door." She spoke weakly. At this moment, she no longer had the strength to knock on the door, so she could only let Xie Zhiyi knock on the door.

"Dong dong dong."

Xie Zhiyi knocked on the door hurriedly. The moment the door opened, Yu Guiwan felt a black screen in front of his eyes and fell backwards heavily.

"Yu Guiwan! Yu Guiwan!"

Xie Zhiyi supported her in time and shouted.

As soon as the door opened, the people in the post station heard the noise here. Ji Mingchuan and Nangong Yi had been waiting anxiously in the yard, and they immediately rushed over when they heard the noise here.

When the two rushed over, they saw Yu Guiwan covered in blood.

Nangong Yi quickly walked over and picked up Yu Guiwan by the waist, then walked into the house with big strides. Nangong Yi used his wide robe to cover Yu Guiwan's entire body, making it difficult for others to see clearly who was in his arms.

Ji Mingchuan hid the emotion in his eyes and then looked at Xie Zhiyi beside him, "Your Highness, can you still leave?"

Xie Zhiyi heard a familiar voice and looked up, "Ji Mingchuan, is Yu Guiwan okay?" Her eyes were full of panic and worry. How could she have known that Yu Guiwan would save her like this.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Zhiyi's eyes were filled with tears.

"Princess, you should treat your wound first, and then wash off the blood on your body. I'm afraid people from the Zhao Palace will be here soon." Ji Mingchuan did not answer her question, but told her what she should do now.

Xie Zhiyi stood there in a daze, not moving. Ji Mingchuan continued to persuade her, "She was injured just to bring the princess back. The princess has never let her down."

"Someone, help the princess to wash up."

Ji Mingchuan gave another order, and Xie Zhiyi's maid immediately stepped forward after hearing the order.

"What happened?" When Ji Mingchuan went over, Nangong Yi was standing outside the door with an anxious look on his face.

"The maid is applying medicine to her. She has knife wounds on her shoulders and back, and she is unconscious due to excessive blood loss." Nangong Yi described Yu Guiwan's symptoms, his eyes full of undisguised worry.

"Mr. Nangong, please come with me to the next room and wait. I'm afraid someone from Zhao State will be sent over soon."

"it is good."

Nangong Yi looked at his expression and immediately understood the implication of Ji Mingchuan's words.

After reaching the next room, Ji Mingchuan came straight to the point, "I still advise Master Nangong to be more restrained. After all, Gui Wan is still a woman. If this gets out, it might damage her reputation."

When Yu Guiwan went out today, the worry in Nangong Yi's eyes was not fake, nor did it seem to be pretended.

"I'm afraid Lord Ji is meddling a little too much." Nangong Yi didn't expect that Ji Mingchuan would actually talk about this matter in a private conversation, and his tone was filled with anger.

Ji Mingchuan was not angry about Nangong Yi's reaction. Instead, he reminded her, "If you really want to do this for her own good, shouldn't you keep some distance from her?"

Nangong Yi looked at Ji Mingchuan with a bit of hostility and said sternly, "What qualifications do you have to say these things to me?"

Ji Mingchuan looked at him, thinking that he had misunderstood, and chuckled, "She called me brother, so of course I was thinking about her. Master Nangong, please don't think too much about it."

Ji Mingchuan's eyes were very frank. He only had brotherly feelings for Yu Guiwan and had no other thoughts.

"hiss……"

"It hurts so much, please be gentle."

The maid beside her was applying medicine to Xie Zhiyi and touched her wound. Xie Zhiyi grimaced in pain and cried out in pain.

"Princess, just bear with it a little longer, it will be fine soon."

The maid quickened the pace of applying the medicine and whispered.

"You still have the nerve to say it hurts?"

Nangong Yi had been waiting outside the door. After Xie Zhiyi had applied the medicine, he pushed the door open and walked straight in, shouting angrily: "How dare you say it hurts?" Nangong Yi looked at her with extremely cold eyes.

"Did you know that all the people sent to look for you are dead?"

"Just because of your willfulness, so many people have to pay the price! Xie Zhiyi, when will you grow up? They all have families, and now they died in a foreign country because of you!"

He had just received news that none of the people he had sent to look for Xie Zhiyi had returned. Xie Zhiyi had been too willful this time.

"I……"

Xie Zhiyi couldn't say anything, only guilt in his eyes.

"Forget it, there's no point telling you. You can't go anywhere unless it's necessary this month, understand?" After saying that, Nangong Yi turned around and was about to leave.

at this time.

The maid outside the door hurried in, "Princess, General, someone from Zhao State is coming."

Nangong Yi immediately turned around and said, "Hurry up and lie down on the bed. Even if everyone knows the truth, you have to pretend." After Nangong Yi said that, he immediately went to the front yard.

Xie Zhiyi didn't dare to say anything more and immediately lay back down.
