After being forced to travel through time by accident, I became famous in the entertainment industry

Shen Lingge supported Xu Zhao and saw the wound on his hand. She exclaimed, "Sister Zhao Zhao, you're hurt!"

"It's okay, let's find a safe place first."

Fortunately, the wound was not very deep. In this time and space, she didn't have to worry about the impact of bacterial infection on her. However, her hand did hurt. She shook her hand, not caring whether the wound was still bleeding, and pulled Shen Lingge and ran up the mountain.

The man hiding in the dark saw that his arrow had missed and he had been exposed, so he pulled up the mask hanging around his neck to cover his face, drew the sword at his waist, and walked out of the forest where he had hidden himself.

There were four other people walking out with him, also holding swords.

"Follow me! The lady said that all women will be killed without mercy!"

"What about the man?"

Even without the leader telling them, they could all tell that the man was dressed in a brocade robe and was either rich or noble. If they hurt such a person, it would probably cause a sensation, and then the people above them would not be able to protect them.

The leading man was the one who shot the arrow just now.

They had just witnessed Shen Lingge protecting Xu Zhao. The leader's voice was stern. "Don't harm his life. If he fights to the death, then let him do it. The mountains here are steep, and if someone falls, there will be no trace left."

There are no bodies in the wilderness, so how can anyone find anything on them?

The leading man waved his hand, and the people behind him followed him in the direction where Xu Zhao and the other two had left.

The most feared thing on the way to escape is accidentally hurting your legs. Xu Zhao followed Shen Lingge through the woods, glancing down at his feet from time to time, for fear of stepping on something he shouldn't and falling.

"Sister Zhao Zhao, I'm sorry. I've caused trouble for you. I originally thought I was just coming to the temple to burn incense, so I didn't let the secret guards follow me. Now, you've put us in danger."

It was still the first month of the year, and Shen Lingge thought that his attendants and secret guards had been busy for a whole year, so since they had nothing to do during these few days, he might as well give them a break.

Now he was in imminent danger, he was unarmed and could not fight against four people, so he could only flee in a hurry with Xu Zhao.

Now they can only wait for the emperor's uncle to notice that they have not returned and come out to look for them.

In order to avoid the ambushers from behind, the two of them did not take the conventional route up the mountain, but instead hid themselves in the dense bushes.

The road up the mountain was difficult to walk on, not to mention that they were running now.

Xu Zhao was panting, with her hands on her hips, "It's me who has implicated you. If something happens to me, it's fine, but if something happens to you, it's really a big deal." As she spoke, her breath became more disordered and her breathing became heavier.

"Sister Zhao Zhao, please don't take the blame on yourself. There are countless people in this imperial city who want to kill me, so how could you be implicated?"

Xu Zhao turned around and vaguely saw the figures of people behind him catching up with him, but the lush branches and leaves in the area not only blocked his vision but also easily tripped him up, which prevented them from catching up immediately.

I just don't know who sent these people. They don't look like people with very strong martial arts skills, otherwise, they would have caught up with them and killed them both long ago.

"Did you see that arrow just now? It was aimed at where I was standing. If they wanted to kill you, they should have aimed in your direction. Unless the archer's skills were not good, they would have been aiming at me from the beginning."

The two analyzed the enemies behind them as they ran.

"But if you only come to the imperial city for a few days, who would want to kill you?" Shen Lingge asked.

After Sister Zhaozhao's analysis, Shen Lingge recalled the position of the arrow just now. It was indeed not aimed at him, but logically speaking, his life was what those people wanted most.

This is also what confuses Xu Zhao. She has only been out of the house a few times in the past few days, but has never had any conflicts with others. Logically, no one should want her life.

"I'm afraid someone saw my natural beauty and got jealous of me, so they killed me."

Shen Lingge couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this. If it were any other noble lady, he would have probably cursed her out loud, but now he just kept on complaining, "Sister Zhao Zhao, we're running for our lives right now, so it's better not to joke around like that."

Xu Zhao pursed her lips and said nothing. She was just trying to distract Shen Lingge from her worries. Since these people were coming for her, she naturally wouldn't think of bringing trouble upon herself.

She looked around and saw that the bushes on the right were better and denser. "Go that way!" She pointed to the right.

The more obstructing plants there are, the easier it is for them to hide, but at the same time, the noise made by the numerous branches cannot be ignored.

Xu Zhao shook off Shen Lingge's hand and pushed him into the woods.

"Sister Zhaozhao!"

Just as Shen Lingge was about to grab Xu Zhao's hand that had broken free, Xu Zhao pushed him away.

"Qinghe, please stay hidden here. I'll lead them away. If they're not targeting you, then everything will be fine."

"Sister Zhao Zhao, what are you going to do!"

The branches in this forest are lush, and even if there are only a few green leaves left on them, they can still cover up a person's figure.

"Qinghe, on the road to great things, people will sacrifice themselves, but you have a more important path to walk. I don't know if I will have the chance to accompany you on the road ahead."

"Sister Zhaozhao, I don't understand what you are saying. Come hide in here with me!" Shen Lingge looked anxious. The assassins behind him might catch up soon.

Xu Zhao smiled faintly, but this smile was tinged with regret. "You should be aware of the impolite request of the Central Jin State. Mr. Yu will surely come to you when he learns of it. Treat him well. One day, he will become your right-hand man."

Shen Lingge's mind was in a mess, but he understood the meaning of Xu Zhao's words. Sister Zhaozhao was saying goodbye to him.

"Sister Zhaozhao..." Shen Lingge took advantage of Xu Zhao's inattention and grabbed her wrist.

Time was running out, and Xu Zhao had no time to waste on him. "Qinghe, you must be a good emperor in the future. Also, tell your uncle that I'm looking forward to meeting him again, but I don't know when it will be. Tell him to take care of himself!"

Finally, Xu Zhao was still a little worried about Shen Lingge. "Qinghe, Sister Zhaozhao won't accompany you to Zhongjin. Be careful when you get there. If you meet a woman you like in the future, don't let her down and treat her sincerely. Remember that?"

She remembered that Shen Lingge's marriage was in Zhongjin, and she didn't know when they would meet next time, so she habitually gave him a few more reminders.

Xu Zhao brushed away the hand that was holding her wrist again and ran in the opposite direction without looking back.

A real man doesn't cry easily, but at this moment Shen Lingge has cried like a tearful man.

He hid in the woods, hating himself for not having learned the skills well enough, and hating himself even more for not even bringing a weapon for self-defense. He didn't even have the ability to fight back. Now he could only hide. He didn't dare speak loudly, and could only repeat what Xu Zhao had said to him over and over in his mind, answering her last question over and over again, "Sister Zhao Zhao, I remember everything."
