Contract Prince

Chapter 48 Injured

"There are... there are... assassins!" The coachman trembled in extreme panic.As soon as the last word came to an end, he was knocked out by the palm of the man in black.

The two people in the car obviously noticed the abnormality outside, Gu Yunjing said solemnly: "Your Highness, the assassins are probably coming for me. You stay in the car, I'll go outside to have a look first. Unless it is absolutely necessary, you must not come out."

"My son-in-law, can you do it?" Xiao Muxue looked at Gu Yunjing worriedly. After all, the son-in-law is just a weak scholar, how can he resist the assassin?

The princess and son-in-law are relatively casual in nature, and they don't have the habit of bringing entourages with them when they travel to the palace on weekdays.At this moment, Xiao Muxue regretted it very much, why didn't she bring more escorts when she went out?

Although Gu Yunjing looked serious, his head was always calm, and he tapped his forehead with his fingers, "We can't use force, but our intelligence is still there."

She looked at Xiao Muxue fixedly, and said in a particularly solemn tone, as if she was declaring an oath: "No matter what, I will devote all my strength to protect the safety of Her Highness the Princess."

After finishing speaking, Gu Yunjing quickly walked out of the carriage.I saw a man in black standing awe-inspiringly in front of the carriage, with a tall and straight figure, with a long sword on his back, looking like a mighty tiger.

"Who are you?" Gu Yunjing didn't show any fear, but asked in a deep voice.

"Long time no see, Prince Consort, don't come here without any problems." A familiar voice echoed in Gu Yunjing's ear.While talking, the man in black tore off his mask, revealing a handsome face.

"Han Jun?" Gu Yunjing blurted out, and then asked in a cold voice, "Why did you appear here? Why did you intercept the carriage for no reason?"

Han Jun is a straightforward person, and he doesn't go around the bush, straight to the point: "I want to see the sixth princess. When I was in the Hou's mansion that night, I said that I would definitely find a chance to meet the sixth princess. If I haven't met her in person, I won't." Desperate."

"Do you know what the crime should be if you intercept the carriage of the royal relatives privately?"

Han Jun said decisively: "I know, there is nothing worse than death. As long as I can see the sixth princess, even if I die, I have no regrets."

Gu Yunjing looked around and found that the place he was in was just at the turn of a slightly remote alley.She remembered that when she returned home last time, she had a vague feeling that someone was following them.Subconsciously asked: "You really took great pains to meet the sixth princess. You have been following us for a long time."

Han Jun nodded calmly: "Yes, I have been following you for a long time. I wanted to see the princess last time, but I didn't know the situation, so I didn't dare to show up easily. Later, I found out that you didn't bring any entourage when you entered and left the palace. Sixth Princess offers an opportunity."

"You're really sincere." Gu Yunjing's tone was very thought-provoking, and he couldn't hear the meaning of praise or criticism.I don't know whether to praise Han Jun or reprimand him.

"There's nothing you can't say. I don't mean to harm you. I just want to see the princess. Please make way for my son-in-law."

Gu Yunjing said: "It's your wish that you want to see the princess. I don't know if Her Royal Highness is willing to see you, so I can't let you go this way."

"If you really want to see the princess, you can just wait outside. I'll pass the message in the car and ask His Highness what it means."

Han Jun was eager to see Xiao Muxue. Although he didn't agree with Gu Yunjing's actions, he also knew that it was inappropriate for him to intercept the carriage privately today.Immediately agreed: "Okay, I will wait outside."

Gu Yunjing turned around and returned to the carriage, and said with a pleasant face: "Your Highness, the person who intercepted the carriage outside is not an assassin."

"Oh, who is that?"

"Han Jun." Gu Yunjing knew that Xiao Muxue was not happy to hear this person's name, but he couldn't avoid it, and it was time to end the grievances.She didn't want Han Jun to harass Xiao Muxue again and again in the future.

Sure enough, as Gu Yunjing guessed, Xiao Muxue really disliked Han Jun.After she heard the other party's name, she frowned, like two raised peaks.His complexion suddenly became extremely ugly, and he directly refused: "No see!"

"Your Highness, I think it's better for you to meet him and explain the matter clearly." Gu Yunjing comforted the princess softly, "Han Jun is a stubborn person, and he will take risks several times to see you. If you haven't seen you today On the one hand, he will come again next time."

The son-in-law said meaningfully at the end: "Yun Jing doesn't know what happened between you, but there is a saying that you should always stop and suffer from it. If you keep avoiding it, it will only make the problem more complicated and complicated."

Xiao Muxue thought for a while, and knew that what Gu Yunjing said was reasonable.He nodded slightly and stepped out of the carriage.Against the backdrop of the moonlight, a stunning face is particularly moving.

"Xue'er!" Han Jun cried impatiently when he saw his sweetheart.In the past, he used this nickname to call Xiao Muxue, so he didn't feel the need to avoid anything at the moment.

Xiao Muxue was not in a good mood at first, but when she heard Han Jun's name, she was in a particularly bad mood, and she suddenly shook her face: "Bold! How can you call me the name of this palace!"

Han Jun was stunned for a moment, like a monk Zhang Er who couldn't figure it out. He looked at Xiao Muxue in a daze, and asked in confusion, "Xue'er, what's wrong with you? I'm Han Jun."

Xiao Muxue said sternly, the majesty and anger on her face increased a lot, "I'll say it again, I don't allow you to call me by my name!"

At this moment, Han Jun finally realized that something was wrong.Although they have the same appearance, the Xiao Muxue in front of him is cold and majestic, completely different from the warm and tender Xue'er he knew.

Han Jun couldn't help wondering in his heart: Xue'er, what exactly did you go through that caused such a drastic change in mood?

He never imagined that the six princesses were no longer the six princesses. Under the appearance of the real princess, there lived someone else's soul.

In order not to offend Xiao Muxue, Han Jun could only change his address: "Princess Six, I have something to talk to you about."

"Speak directly if you have anything to say." Han Jun begged, "I want to talk to you alone, can I change the place?"

Xiao Muxue refused very simply: "No, just here." She turned her head and glanced at the carriage, "Ben Gong is open and frank, since I chose to come out to meet you, there is no need to have a sneaky talk. Ben Gong's husband is In the car, if I go to an appointment with you alone, I will not pay attention to the son-in-law. This is not what a wife should do."

From the moment Xiao Muxue stepped out of the carriage, Gu Yunjing listened attentively to their conversation.When she heard Xiao Muxue's last few words, a bright smile rose from the corner of her mouth.Tsk tsk, it turns out that Her Royal Highness is so well-behaved.

"Since the princess wants to say it here, let's say it here." Han Jundao, "In fact, I have always had many questions in my mind, and I think only the sixth princess can answer me."

Han Jun did not shy away from it, and directly entered the topic, with a soft smile on his tough face: "Before elopement, I had a very good relationship with Her Royal Highness, and those days were the happiest moments in my life."

"Later, the elopement failed, and I was imprisoned, and His Highness was taken back to the palace. In prison, I only thought about one thing every day, and that was how the sixth princess was going?"

"I want to get out of prison in my dreams, not for anything else, I just want to see Her Royal Highness. For this wish, I sneaked out of prison three times." Speaking of this, he laughed at himself, "It's a pity that I'm so useless, I failed three times to escape from prison Yes. Every time I am caught and returned to prison, I will be tortured severely."

"The feeling of being burned by the soldering iron is really, really painful. But I carried it over with force. I, Han Jun, am not afraid of death. What I fear most is being separated from the one I love."

"I finally made it to the day I was released from prison. I thought it was my sincerity that touched the heavens, but the jailer told me that I was pardoned by the emperor and released from prison because of the marriage of the sixth princess. When I heard the news, my heart burned like a soldering iron." It’s still uncomfortable, because I know you were forced to get married.”

"I broke into the Hou's mansion over the wall to rescue you." Han Jun sighed, "I didn't expect that you didn't want to see me. At that time, I thought you might be in a bad mood. I just found out today that Her Royal Highness is real. hate me."

Han Jun said in pain, his face twitching slightly: "Why do you hate me? What happened? What did I do wrong? If I don't figure out all this, I won't be at ease for the rest of my life."

Xiao Muxue admitted that Han Jun is an infatuated and single-minded man.To die for such a man, the original owner of the body did not die in vain.Frankly speaking, she is also very moved by what Han Jun has done, but it is only moved. She is not a real princess and cannot give Han Jun any emotion other than being moved.

If possible, Xiao Muxue would also like to tell Han Jun about her time travel.It's a pity that this matter is too miraculous, even if it is said, no one will believe it.She, a modern person, still finds it unbelievable, let alone asking ancient people to accept all this?

Since you can't tell the truth, you can only make up reasons.Compared with before, Xiao Muxue's tone was a little less harsh, she said slowly: "Things have changed, and the sea has changed. Even if I like you, that was in the past. Now I have no love for you, I like you It's the son-in-law, Gu Yunjing."

When Gu Yunjing heard this, his heart was shocked, and every cell in his body seemed to be excited.She danced and danced, like a child who got candy, and muttered to herself: "Is what the sixth princess said true? Does she really like me?"

The son-in-law is happy, while Han Jun is sad.He seemed to have been slapped in the head and lost his mind.Shaking his head violently, he said incredulously, "Impossible, I don't believe it."

"You clearly said that as long as the king's heart is like mine, you will live up to your love, hold your hand, and grow old with you. Have you forgotten all this? How can you forget?" Han Jun's voice seemed choked up, and he kept repeating.

He had eloped with the princess, and had sworn eachother.Those unswerving vows echoed clearly in his heart. Han Jun didn't believe that the sixth princess who loved him so much would empathize with someone else?

Xiao Muxue looked at Han Jun's painful expression, sighed a few times to express her sympathy, and said: "The world is like white clouds and candy dogs, changing rapidly, nothing is impossible."

When the sixth princess said this, she had deep self-experience.She used to think that she didn't like men, but after meeting Gu Yunjing, she realized that she had secretly fallen in love with the son-in-law.

She doesn't care about Gu Yunjing's gender, she just simply likes this person.I like the son-in-law's erudition, wisdom and elegant speech, and I like a gentleman who is upright and open, as bright as the bright moon.

I originally wanted to go to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch.Even though she admires Gu Yunjing, the son-in-law already has his own heart.Xiao Muxue is also secretly tasting the taste of secret love. In two lives, this is the first time she has fallen in love with someone else.

Having a crush on someone is very tiring and bitter, but thinking about it makes her happy again, Xiao Muxue looked at the carriage again and smiled awkwardly.

"Princess Six, is what you said true?" Han Jun felt lost, and his heart was ashamed.My heart is being lingering, it really is better to die than to live.

Xiao Muxue nodded earnestly: "There is absolutely no lie. Now that I am a wife, I have my own happiness. I also hope that Mr. Han will not bother you again. You are a talented man with both civil and military skills, and you will definitely find your own happiness."

Han Jun is a nice person, Xiao Muxue really hopes that he will be happy.Probably in this way, I can feel less guilty in my heart.

Although Han Jun is a scholar, he is not pedantic and has a chivalrous spirit in his heart.It can even be said that his knowledge and bearing far exceed that of ordinary scholars.

Now that Xiao Muxue has already stated the fact that she doesn't love him, no matter how reluctant Han Jun is, there is absolutely no reason for him to continue stalking him.Loving someone is not just possession, but also hope she can get happiness.

Han Jun closed his eyes, turned around to leave, and said in his heart: If Gu Yunjing can give you happiness, no matter what, I will make it happen for you.Cher, you must be happy!

In the moonlight, Liren's back is extremely bleak.Han Juncai walked a few steps away, suddenly a strange look flashed in his eyes, and he looked around vigilantly.When he smelled a killing intent, he quickly retreated to the carriage.

"Princess Six, son-in-law, something is not good, someone is going to attack you!" Han Jun said anxiously, he was really worried because there were so many assassins outside, far beyond his range.

As soon as Xiao Muxue returned to the carriage, she heard Han Jun's voice outside the carriage. She opened the curtain and said quickly, "This man is coming after us. Leave alone, so as not to be implicated for no reason."

"No," Han Jun shook his head and said, his face extremely tough. "At this moment, if I leave by myself, I will be a good man in vain! I have read the sage books for so many years for nothing!"

"I'll take you away in a carriage!" Han Jun flew on the horse quickly, put his feet firmly on the saddle, swung his whip, and turned the front of the car hastily, "Princess, sit still!"

The wheels are rolling, and the carriage is traveling extremely fast.A group of men in black were chasing after him, Han Jun glanced back, panicked, and waved his horsewhip vigorously.

The fierceness of the horse was also stimulated, and it ran faster.In the blink of an eye, there was a visible distance between him and the man in black behind him.Han Jun thought he could get rid of the assassin's pursuit, but at this critical moment, the horse's hoof was tied tightly by the rope and stopped.

A group of men in black chased after them, and they pulled the rope in all directions, causing the carriage to fall to the ground.Seeing this, Han Jun flew away from the horse, and the princess son-in-law fell out of the carriage.

Xiao Muxue had practiced martial arts anyway, and her movements were agile, so this fall did not cause much damage to her body.However, Gu Yunjing was different, her frail body couldn't stand the toss, and this fall almost didn't break her bones.

The severe pain from the body made Gu Yunjing's face extremely pale.Seeing this, Xiao Muxue quickly helped her up, and asked, "My son-in-law, how are you? Where did you fall?"

"My head hurts." Gu Yunjing frowned.Just after finishing speaking, several men in black walked up to the son-in-law, and said coldly: "Take money, □□. Lord son-in-law, our brothers will send you on your way today! This is the first time you have killed a relative of the emperor!"

The moment the man in black showed his sword, Xiao Muxue blocked Gu Yunjing at an astonishing speed, fighting with the assassins.

These assassins are all masters and well-trained. Even though Xiao Muxue is very skilled, her fists cannot reach her four feet. After a few rounds, there is a faint tendency of defeat.

Han Jun was dealing with other assassins at the other end, and he had no time to spare for the princess.Xiao Muxue felt that she was going to die at the hands of assassins several times, but to her surprise, these assassins did not intend to hurt her.Their goal is only Gu Yunjing.

Because of this, Xiao Muxue was able to fight the assassins for so long.

What the leading assassin wanted was to end Gu Yunjing quickly, and had no intention of wasting time with Xiao Muxue.He told his subordinates: "You guys practice boxing and kicking with Her Royal Highness, don't hurt her. I personally went to end Gu Yunjing's life."

Xiao Muxue was entangled by several people, and was no longer able to protect Gu Yunjing.It was about to see a sword that was as cold as frost about to stab the son-in-law. At this critical moment, the princess used all her strength to leap in front of the son-in-law, forcefully blocking the sword for her.

Seeing this, the leading man in black took a few steps back, trying to withdraw his sword immediately, but it was too late.Li Ren, who was as white as frost and snow, was already stained red by Xiao Muxue's blood, when he pulled out the sword, the blood spattered several meters.

Under the moonlight, a magnificent woman smiled poignantly at a young man.

"No, no! Your Royal Highness, Your Highness Princess..." Gu Yunjing turned pale with shock and said in pain.

Seeing that Xiao Muxue was seriously injured, the leader of the men in black couldn't help but also panicked.Because someone has repeatedly explained that this action is aimed at Gu Yunjing, and Xiao Muxue must not be hurt at all.

"Brother, what should we do?" The brothers knew that things had been screwed up, and they didn't know what to do next.

"Since the matter is already like this, there is nothing we can do. Let's get rid of Gu Yunjing!"

Gu Yunjing hugged Xiao Muxue, whose white clothes were mostly stained red with blood, feeling distraught.At this moment, life and death have no meaning to her.

The sword was about to pass through Gu Yunjing's chest again. At this moment, a stern voice came from behind: "Stop! The Habayashi army is here, who gathers people to make trouble?"

Because people from Southern Chu recently visited the Xiao Kingdom, Xiao Guan specially asked Jiang Shitang to lead the Habayashi Army to strengthen patrols inside and outside the capital.When Jiang Shitang led his army through this place, he was attracted by the sound of fierce fighting.

When the assassins heard about the Habayashi Army, they immediately fled in all directions like frightened birds.

"Follow me!" Jiang Shitang ordered his subordinates loudly.He picked up the torch and took a look, and suddenly found that the person lying on the ground was actually His Royal Highness Sixth Princess.It was Gu Yunjing who hugged the princess and wept.

"My son-in-law, Her Royal Highness the Princess has been seriously injured, and she needs to be healed by the imperial doctor as soon as possible." Jiang Shitang said anxiously, the sixth princess' injury is extremely serious, and there is no room for a moment's delay.

"Jiang Shitang is that you? You came just in time, hurry up and save Her Royal Highness, Hurry up!" Gu Yunjing, who was calm and unhurried, was in chaos for the first time.

Jiang Shitang tore off his clothes, and quickly bandaged Xiao Muxue's injured area.

"His Royal Highness is seriously injured. If she moves casually, I'm afraid the blood will bleed even more. It seems that the imperial doctor has to come!" Jiang Shitang immediately ordered his subordinates, "Hurry up! Report this matter to Your Majesty, and let the imperial doctor come to see you." Come to heal Her Highness the Princess! Hurry back to the palace now, and use the fastest speed!"

The palace, in the palace of nourishing the heart.

After the banquet was over, Xiao Guan went to Concubine Li to rest.At this moment, he was still immersed in the gentleness, when he suddenly heard the urgent report from the eunuch outside the gate of Yangxin Palace.

"Your Majesty, something is wrong! This old servant has something to ask to see His Majesty!" Chen Huaisheng said loudly, at this moment the old eunuch had no choice but to abide by the noisy etiquette.

Xiao Guanzheng was flirting with Concubine Li, when he heard Chen Huaisheng's voice, he lost all interest for a while, his face was as gloomy as a dark cloud.

"Your Majesty, don't be upset, this Eunuch Chen is really a disappointment, and this concubine will let him be kicked out." Concubine Li said flatteringly.

Xiao Guan was angry, but his reason was still clear.Chen Huaisheng has always been a person who abides by the rules and will never break the rules for no reason.

"Forget it, Chen Huaisheng asked to see him late at night, there must be something important! I will see him." Xiao Guan sat up with his clothes on, and after getting dressed, he walked slowly outside the door.

"Eunuch Chen, why did you beg to see me late at night?" Xiao Guan asked Chen Huaisheng who was kneeling on the ground.

"Your Majesty, the Sixth Princess has been assassinated!"
