Your Highness, she just wants to fight till the end

Chapter 12 Dark Guard
The man's eyes were fierce, but he looked this way with a thief.

Obviously, he didn't notice where Jin Yuan and the others were, but the movements of the few people just now had caught his attention.

This bandit has a target, knowing that there are guards ambushing here.

When Qiancao saw it, her heart hung in her throat: "Your Highness, you hide it well, I will go out and lure that person away!"

Jin Yuan has no doubts about her sincerity, and is always prepared to die for the Lord, but this time, Jin Yuan did not let her go as in the original book.

Qiancao doesn't know martial arts, and it's easy to get out of breath after running two extra steps. Compared with her, Yun Qing has similar agility.

Only Jin Yuan herself knew how to do a few tricks. Although His Highness was weak and his martial strength was greatly reduced, in the end, his tendons and collaterals were relaxed, which was better than the two of them.

She was also scared to death in her heart, but seeing the man coming, she still said: "You two wait and don't move, this is an order, do you hear me?"

After finishing speaking, there was no time to explain more, so he picked up a stone and threw it into the grass in the distance. Sure enough, the rogue was attracted by the movement and quickly walked there.

Seeing that he was alone, Jin Yuan felt relieved.

Then he rushed out and went straight to the bushes where the two of them were hiding.

Seeing this, Chikusa's eyes instantly turned red: "Your Highness, you really have changed your mind."

Yun Qing was even more emotional: "Even if I use this life now, I still can't finish His Highness's kindness to me."

The person involved, Jin Yuan, didn't think too much about it. She didn't think she was aggressive when she came out this time, and she didn't fully pay attention to that mere rogue.

After hiding, another stone was thrown, unexpectedly, when she was about to get up and change places, she collided with the thief, she lowered her eyebrows, and rushed straight away, wanting to catch the thieves when they were unawares. It was time to seize the opportunity.

Fortunately, the opponent's skill is really average, after three or two rounds, Jin Yuan has already slashed at the man's neck.

But at this time, she was in trouble.

She hasn't killed anyone yet.

When he was hesitating whether to wipe his neck, the rogue suddenly stared and fell forward heavily.

On the canopy not far away, Yu Lianzheng in a black shirt stepped on a light branch, looking down at her from above.

The four eyes met, against the dim light, she also looked down on his expression.

On the other hand, Qian Cao and Yun Qing rushed out immediately, their eyes were red from crying.

"Don't dare to make a move, and act recklessly, you are looking for death." Yu Lianzheng's tone was a bit more serious, and he looked at her again and said, "But your skill impresses me, and it's fortunate that you came out, so I didn't tie my hands and feet."

Just now when he was in the team, he was always thinking about the people in the sedan chair, but he couldn't get rid of it for a while because he was surrounded by bandits. The knife is about to go in, but fortunately, there is no one in the sedan chair.

Yu Lianzheng found a few people, and saw the scene just now: "These two servant girls you raised are not effective in protecting the Lord, they should be a capital crime."

Jin Yuan knew that he took the rules very seriously in his heart, so he just waved the two of them away, and said: "I won't argue with you about this, your failure to protect the Lord is not the same as a death penalty."

He didn't speak, but there was a light in his eyes that she couldn't understand.

After several people came out from the dense forest, Jin Yuan realized that the outside was already a mess, and the rest of the thieves fled away, but his elite did not suffer any losses.

"I told them to go ahead. There are so many people now that they are eye-catching." After Yu Lianzheng finished speaking, he waved again, and the pedestrians moved forward consciously.

Now the few people changed into light clothes and went to the small town on the map without any haste.

The few people walked for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Jin Yuan raised her head to look at him again and said, "I'm going to find an inn to rest."

Now she was leaning in front of Yu Lianzheng, when she turned around, his gaze happened to follow that slender neck, so she frowned, and turned her face sideways: "Okay."

After entering the inn, he didn't make things difficult for Jin Yuan, so he slept with her in a separate room.

During this journey, Jin Yuan fell asleep very early, but only in the middle of the night did she vaguely notice slight movements coming from outside the house.

She frowned and sat up quietly.

Now that Yu Lianzheng is here, she is not worried about her own safety, she just thinks that there is an ordinary thief outside the house.

So the cat bent his back and slowly leaned towards the door.

By the faint candlelight in the room, Jin Yuan saw a white secret note being handed in from under the door.

Surprised in her heart, she stretched out her hand to take it, stood still in front of the candlelight, and opened it to see that there were only three words written on the white paper.

"Mr. Xu." Then there was a disc mark in the lower right corner.

This is a bit like a letter of identity for some people to ask for their lives.

Mr. Xu, Jinyuan knows about it.

Long before Yu Lianzheng, she had countless faces, and this man was one of them, but she only met him a few times in the Princess Mansion on weekdays, but never said a word.

She raised her head as she thought about it, and saw a figure swaying outside the aisle, it seemed that Mr. Xu had not left.

Jin Yuan thought about it carefully, then opened the door.

Sure enough, the man in the corridor was slender, with a handsome face, dressed in nocturnal black clothes, with a dignified expression.

When he entered the door, he first bowed his hands and saluted, and then he spoke respectfully: "Your Highness."

Although Mr. Xu is the first, he treats Jin Yuan with no ambiguous behavior beyond the relationship between men and women. He is completely like an ordinary guard, abiding by his duties and acting with restraint.

When she didn't answer, he just stood there with his head bowed.

After all, Jin Yuan did not inherit the memory of the heroine of the original book, so many things can only be guessed by herself.

But she guessed that Mr. Xu was coming towards her, so she said, "Get up."

Only then did he raise his head, and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, your subordinates are late."

"Why are you late?" Jin Yuan asked back. According to the plot of the original book, Mr. Xu should have several roles and be one of His Highness's hidden guards.

He was protecting her from behind, and at the same time, he was investigating her assassination in the wine shop that day.

Although there are many people who want to kill her, but Guangming grows up to assassinate her more or less courageously, Jin Yuan naturally refuses to let go of this matter.

Sure enough, Mr. Xu took a step forward: "Outside the winery that day, the person who assassinated His Highness has been found. Now that the subordinates are following him again, there should be clues."

After speaking, he raised his head again, his eyes full of worry: "Your Highness, this subordinate is worried about you, so I followed you all the way, that Yu Lianzheng is not someone you can rely on."

She also agrees with this point.

Jin Yuan had checked the backgrounds of all the faces under her seat, and besides some of them were indeed famous handsome men in Heyang, some of them were just like Mr. Xu.

They were orphans who were young and had no one to rely on. When they were in their teens, some good-looking and skilled people entered her backyard.

"Your Highness, if it's inconvenient for you, why don't you go with your subordinates, after all, that Yu Lianzheng is," before he could finish speaking, footsteps gradually sounded outside the room, and a piercing voice pierced through the thin window paper and entered his ears directly: "What is it?"

The door was pushed open, and he stood against the light with a gloomy expression.
