Great Tang princess

Chapter 76 Pursuit

The Tang Dynasty was a government army system, and the weapons of the government soldiers had to be prepared by themselves, so the common people were not prohibited from carrying weapons.

In the "Tang Law Shuyi", it is only stipulated that the common people are not allowed to forge armor privately, but there are no regulations on weapons.

So it is normal for someone to carry a horizontal knife on the street.

Because of this, when they saw someone walking towards this side with a knife at first, the prison guard didn't immediately alert him.

In addition, the opponent came prepared and agile, so the two of them were damaged as soon as they met.

Inside the carriage, hearing the roar of the guard outside, Fulai was stunned for a moment, then immediately got up, squatted at the door, and stretched his arms to protect Li Yuechen behind him.

Li Yuechen, who was sitting against the car, didn't realize it, what the hell?Someone assassinate me in the street?Could it be a misunderstanding?

Outside, all the prison guards in charge of protection immediately drew their knives out of their sheaths and surrounded the carriage.

The two assassins had already reached the carriage, and swung their knives at the guard who had drawn his knives out of their sheaths.

And among the crowd of common people who found that something was wrong and fled in all directions, more than a dozen people rushed out again, drew their knives and slashed at the nearest prison guard.

All of a sudden, the sound of metal fronts resounded around.

Li Yuechen in the carriage got up immediately, leaned against the body of the carriage, and opened a small gap in the curtain to look out.

There were more than [-] people besieging his carriage, fighting with the guard in charge of protection.

There is not much difference in the number of the two sides, but these assassins are extremely skilled, and the guards are obviously being suppressed and beaten.

An assassin swung a knife horizontally, and the guard on the opposite side couldn't resist, and his neck was cut open in an instant.

While a large amount of blood was sprayed, the person had already fallen limply.

Li Yuechen in the carriage opened his eyes wide, squatted down immediately, and took a deep breath.

To be honest, this was the first time in two lifetimes that I saw someone killed in front of my own eyes. Suddenly, a huge sense of fear enveloped my whole body, and my hands and feet trembled unconsciously.

"Your Highness!" Fulai immediately came over and patted her shoulder lightly, "Don't be afraid, there are servants here!"

Li Yuechen didn't answer, just panting heavily.

After only two or three seconds, he calmed down, and his limbs no longer trembled.

As an extreme athlete, fear is her most familiar partner.She has faced too many avalanches, huge waves and bottomless cliffs.

When she is surrounded by fear, it is precisely when she is calm.

Li Yuechen, who calmed down, listened to the sound of metal colliding outside and the occasional screams, and raised his head to look at Fulai: "How is your skill?"

"Slave..." Fulai lowered his head, not knowing how to answer.

He has been a slave in the palace since he was a child. He has never been on the battlefield, nor has he touched any weapons.

If group fights among the eunuchs in the palace are also counted, it can only be said to be at the level of an ordinary person.

The advantage of Fulai is not in skill, but in courage.

He was able to get to where he is today, and he didn't know how many dirty jobs he had done for the palace.Maybe his skills are not good, but he is courageous and dares to be ruthless!
Li Yuechen got up again, and glanced out through the curtain. Five or six of the guards in charge of protecting him had already fallen down, and the fainting blood under his body hadn't solidified yet.

On the other side, only one fell down, and the rest of the guards were struggling to hold on.

From this point, it can be seen that these assassins are definitely not ordinary people, and they have quite a lot of actual combat experience.

"Your Highness, don't read it, it's here..."

"No." Li Yuechen squatted down, looked at Fulai with a serious face, "These people are strong, and the prison guards can't support the arrival of reinforcements, this place is not safe!"

As soon as the words fell, there was a "bang", and the carriage shook slightly twice.

Li Yuechen and Fulai were taken aback for a moment, and then immediately understood that someone should have been knocked down and hit the carriage.

The situation is not optimistic... Li Yuechen only thought for a second or so, then directly passed Fulai, opened the curtain and came outside the carriage.

"Your Highness, no!" Fulai stretched out his hand to grab her back, but was nimbly dodged.

When he came to the frame outside, Li Yuechen happened to see an assassin next to him slashing the guard in front of him to the ground with a knife, and then he reached out and grabbed him.

Li Yuechen took two steps back and returned to the carriage.

The man was about to come up, when a prison guard came from beside him and slashed at him, so he had no choice but to return to defense.

Li Yuechen who retreated into the carriage narrowed his eyes.

"Your Highness, don't act rashly, we'd better wait for reinforcements to arrive!" Fu Lai reminded.

Li Yuechen thought of the action of that person just now, he clearly had a knife in his hand, but he still stretched out his left hand to grab it towards him.

Obviously not to kill, but to kidnap himself.

Presumably, kidnapping a princess and assassinating a princess are two completely different concepts.

If it was a kidnapping, as long as the princess came back afterwards, and then silenced the people who participated, there would be no evidence to prove it. Even if the emperor was angry, he couldn't really do anything.

But if the princess is killed, once the emperor goes crazy, no matter whether there is evidence or not, it may directly lead to a bloodbath.

Most of these people came here for the soap formula, after all, I was still a child.

From their point of view, if you are smart, you can say everything after you have been arrested and frightened a little.

Thinking of this, Li Yuechen nodded slightly, already having an idea in his mind.

If it was on the plains, maybe at this time, he really could only wait where he was, but in this city, Li Yuechen was confident that he would not be caught!
Thinking of this, Li Yuechen turned his head and said, "Fulai, call someone as soon as you find a chance!"

"Your Highness, no!" Fulai knew what she wanted to do again, and he was worried, and he didn't care about the question of overstepping, so he firmly tugged on Li Yuechen's sleeve.

"If this goes on, we can only wait to die!"

Li Yuechen didn't talk nonsense with him, as soon as he turned around, Fulai felt his hands loosen.

Looking down, only Li Yuechen's coat was left in her hand, and she had already got out of the carriage.

Li Yuechen who came to the carriage frame jumped on the spot, raised his hands to grab the crossbeam above the door frame of the carriage, and hoisted himself up.

Then he flicked his legs upwards, performed a backflip in the air, and threw himself directly onto the roof of the carriage.

The consequences of this scene were obviously not expected by anyone. Even the assassin below opened his eyes wide, wondering what the princess was doing.

Li Yuechen could see clearly that these people did not have bows and arrows in their hands.

After all, it is normal to carry a horizontal knife on the street, but if you carry a bow and arrow, it is too conspicuous.

Moreover, there are quite a few of these people. Such a large number of bows and arrows entering the Eastern Capital will definitely arouse suspicion.

These people probably thought of this, so they didn't have such weapons.

Because of this, Li Yuechen dared to do this. As long as he didn't have a long-range weapon, he didn't have to worry about being shot.

Li Yuechen, who was on the top of the carriage, took two run-up steps, leaped suddenly, drew an arc in mid-air, and landed firmly on the square wall nearly two meters away.

Then he turned his head and took a look, and actually stepped on the square wall and ran towards Nanshi.

The square wall is at most the shoulder width of an adult, and it is extremely dangerous to run in this kind of place, but Li Yuechen has sufficient confidence in his ability.

Seeing the target run away, the leading assassin yelled, "Hurry up!"

The guard in charge of protection didn't react for a while, but when he saw that they were about to chase, he rushed up to fight them again.

It is better for the princess to run around the Eastern Capital than to be caught by these people.

For a moment, half of the assassins were entangled, and about ten people chased after Li Yuechen.

Three of them jumped into the wall of the square and chased Li Yuechen below.

In this way, no matter which way Li Yuechen jumped, he would be caught by them in the end.

Of course, Li Yuechen didn't intend to compare his running speed with them. How could a child like him run faster than these people?

While running and observing the route ahead, Li Yuechen saw that the eaves on the second floor of a house opposite was not far from the square wall, so he had an idea in his heart.

So he speeded up his run-up abruptly, jumped, and threw himself out in the air, grasping the opposite eaves with both hands accurately.

At the same time, this force swung himself forward, like a standing long jump, and precisely stood on the eaves of the corridor on the second floor.

This scene made the assassins who were chasing after her feel unbelievable. Although the information said that the princess practiced martial arts since childhood, she was only a child after all.

It turned out that I didn't expect to be able to have this kind of skill at this age!
Li Yuechen knew that those who could take on this kind of work were either dead soldiers trained by big families, or desperate people who didn't care.

So there is no safety yet, and we must continue to flee.

After jumping down from the railing, Li Yuechen heard the laughter of someone in the room. Seeing that the window was open, Li Yuechen jumped in directly.

As soon as I came in, I saw that this was probably the room of some wealthy businessman, and the decoration was pretty good.

And on the bed directly opposite, there was a slightly chubby man and woman who were teasing and laughing, and there were not many pieces of cloth on their bodies.

Seeing a child coming in suddenly, the woman screamed subconsciously, grabbed the quilt and covered herself.

The fat man turned his head and saw a little girl wearing a silk jacket and men's trousers standing at the window.

"Who are you?" He asked subconsciously.

"Sorry, I didn't intend to disturb you." Li Yuechen said while running to the opposite door.

When he was about to run to the door, he suddenly turned back and walked straight to the head of the bed.

The fat man subconsciously protected the woman behind him, and was about to speak.

I saw Li Yuechen pick up a hairpin from the woman on the bedside: "It's a loan, I will pay you back next time!"

After finishing speaking, Li Yuechen put his ponytail on his head as he walked out the door, and pinned it with this hairpin.

It wasn't until Li Yuechen opened the door and ran out that the fat man turned his head to look at the woman on the bed and asked in a daze, "Ben Gong?"

……

The servants of this wealthy merchant saw a child coming down from the second floor, and were a little dazed for a moment.

He wanted to ask who it was, but he didn't dare to ask.

Li Yuechen didn't bother to talk nonsense with them, so he ran out quickly.

This side happened to be the root of the wall, and I saw some various goods piled up in the corner, as well as an abandoned frame.

Li Yuechen took two steps towards the run-up, jumped a few times on the frame, and then jumped out of the square wall.

After landing, he had already arrived at Nanshi, where people came and went, making it easy to hide himself.

Just as he was about to find a place to hide, he heard a woman screaming next to him.

Turning around to see, the assassins from just now were chasing after them, because they were holding knives with blood on them, scaring passers-by.

Of course, the other party also saw Li Yuechen, and immediately raised his legs to chase after him.

Damn... Li Yuechen felt helpless and ran into Nanshi in a hurry.

This place is very large and prosperous, and at the same time, various streets are vertical and horizontal, and the terrain is complex.There are restaurants, Buddhist temples, shops, etc...

A child running here by himself is naturally easy to be spotted, and the assassins behind him are chasing him closely. Li Yuechen can only run as far as possible to a crowded place, trying to stop their footsteps.

However, these assassins were also smart, and they all took their knives away after they came in. They didn't cause too much panic, and at the same time, they quickly caught up with them while moving flexibly.

Seeing that the people behind were getting closer, Li Yuechen turned around and entered a restaurant.

At this point, many shops like restaurants have several doors open, so there is no need to worry about being blocked.

Li Yuechen jumped up, stepped on the window sill, and threw his body nearly two meters in the air.

There were two people sitting face to face drinking, and suddenly saw a child rushing in from the window, and then propped his hands on the table, the originally upright body retracted instantly, and then the prop force swung out a distance of more than one meter , landed firmly.

The two who were about to clink their glasses only felt a flash in front of their eyes, and a white shadow flashed by.

Turning his head subconsciously, he saw a child falling firmly on the ground, getting up and continuing to run outside.

Such a set of smooth and flowing movements made the people in the wine shop unaware that many people even applauded subconsciously.

Parkour technique, King Kong jump.For Li Yuechen, this is already something engraved in his instinct.

The assassin behind also chased in, just in time to see Li Yuechen running out from the side door.

So immediately separated the two strands and outflanked them from two directions.

Looking back, Li Yuechen thought for a while, and immediately ran into the cloth shop in front.

There is no way, I am still too young now, and I absolutely cannot chase them for a long distance in the open space.

Seeing her entering the cloth house, the two teams of assassins immediately entered through all the front and rear doors, intending to force her up to the second floor.

Of course, Li Yuechen thought so too. After entering it, he didn't run to the back door at all, but went directly to the second floor.

When he was halfway up the stairs, he kicked his legs, grabbed the railing on the second floor and climbed up.

The assassins followed closely behind. Although they were not as flexible as Li Yuechen, they were strong and strong, and their physical fitness was there.

After swarming up to the second floor, Li Yuechen turned around and saw that the assassin had followed, and immediately ran to the window.

The assassin at the back was surprised. This princess is really skilled, but how dare a child jump down from the second floor?

Could it be that he was in a panic?

Several assassins speeded up to catch up, but Li Yuechen came to the window without any hesitation, kicked his feet directly, and his body was already flying into the air.

With a diving leap, his body formed a straight line in the air and jumped out of the window.

The assassin behind was shocked and stretched out his hand to grab her, but he was still half a beat too late, and could only watch her jump out of the window.
