Chapter 58 Rumors Are Flying

"I've heard about it too, my lord, is this true or not?" The other person stepped forward hesitantly, with a troubled expression on his face.

These things were spread all over the place, and they dared not report to the prince.

Xiao Chen frowned, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

He said in a deep voice: "No, the reason why the fourth prince was imprisoned was because of murdering the king. As for the princess, she and the fourth prince have already made a clean break."

The voice fell.

The two looked at each other.

"So, my lord... the rumors are true?"

Xiao Chen was noncommittal.

The other party said in embarrassment: "My lord, even if the princess and the fourth prince are in the past, just because of her relationship with the fourth prince, she can't be called Princess Yan!"

"Yes, my lord, your concubine should be a pure, quiet and elegant person, how can..."

Xiao Chen frowned.

"Okay, the two generals don't need to say much. Regarding the matter of the princess, this king is free to decide. Although she once had a relationship with the fourth prince, after marrying this net, she has no contact with the other party, and even rejected the fourth prince. The proposal to murder this king is deeply affectionate and righteous to this king."

Deep affection?

That is impossible.

Su Xiaoxiao had no choice but to kill him and become the empress.

But Xiao Chen knew that these rumors were deliberately released by the emperor. On the one hand, it was to cover up the royal family's actions against him, and on the other hand, it was to provoke.

Sow discord between him and Su Xiaoxiao.

As long as he is not angry with the rumors in the capital, he will implicate Su Xiaoxiao, and the relationship between the two will naturally deteriorate.

and so.

Naturally, he couldn't let the other party do what he wanted.

He frowned.

It always feels like something is missing.

In front of the two generals, he did not show any displeasure, but gently explained to them one by one, and then sent them away.

Just when I was about to go back.

His steps stopped.

He remembered what the missing thing was.

One by one, Su Xiaoxiao slapped the royal family in the face, how could the royal family let her go so easily?Before, the royal family had the idea of ​​getting rid of Su Xiaoxiao.

Let alone now?
What if something happened to Su Xiaoxiao at this juncture?
As long as the royal family is functioning well, the spearhead can be turned on him.It can be said that he hated Su Xiaoxiao's selfishness with the fourth prince, so he murdered her!

Although unlikely.

Xiao Chen didn't dare to gamble.

"Prepare the carriage, the king wants to chase the princess!"

"Yes!"

"You go now. Immediately, immediately! I want to catch up with her as quickly as possible. If I delay my time, I will ask you! Go!"

"The slave obeys the order, the slave will go now!"

The guards left at the sound, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the prince really likes the princess, and the princess has been away for so long, so she has to go after her specially!
But Xiao Chen didn't dare to think so much.

With calm eyes, he strode forward.

Get on the carriage quickly.

at the same time.

Su Xiaoxiao's carriage has already driven outside the palace.

Just when she was closing her eyes, she heard a gust of wind, and the next moment, a sharp arrow accurately pierced through the entire car, and the sharp point of the arrow was on her forehead.

Just a little.

It could almost kill her.

She suddenly broke out in cold sweat.

"The coachman?"

She barked a few times.

no respond.

A feeling of uneasiness suddenly rose in her heart, she opened the car curtain, only to see the bearer sitting in the front of the car, with a sharp arrow on his chest, his face was stained red with blood.

Su Xiaoxiao was startled.

Almost fell off the carriage.

"what happened?"

She asked the system in shock.

"Host, wait a minute, let me check... Wait, host, get out of the way!"

Following the system's reminder, Su Xiaoxiao jumped out of the carriage, and then saw that a sharp arrow hit the place where she was originally staying.

As can be seen.

One by one, if Su Xiaoxiao hadn't been able to hide quickly just now, she would have died long ago!
Her complexion changed, and then she heard the system's voice sound quickly: "Host, be careful! The royal family will not succeed in slandering you, and they are already planning to kill you and blame Xiao Chen?"

what?
kill him?

To blame Xiao Chen?

Su Xiaoxiao's expression changed.

She never thought that the royal family would have such thoughts, so wouldn't she have only a dead end today?
"System, quickly find a way for me. If I die, your mission will not be completed! You must find a way to save me!"

The system was silent for a moment.

In fact, it can give up Su Xiaoxiao directly and bind with another person.

Firstly, it doesn't have enough energy, and secondly, there is no more suitable candidate than Su Xiaoxiao, so it can be regarded as binding Su Xiaoxiao now.

"Host, remember the gun you exchanged last night? The man who shot you is behind the tree, you can take the gun and kill him, so you will be safe." "The royal family only sent him over and killed him , you will be safe."

Su Xiaoxiao was taken aback.

"You want me to... kill him?"

She never did it.

The system's voice was extremely cold: "Host, please think about it, this is not modern, if you don't do it, you will only die in the opponent's hands!"

"He has already started to draw his bow! Please pay attention!"

Su Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth.

Quickly dodge.

then.

Pulled out the gun.

She knew that in this situation, she was the only one who could save herself, so she took a deep breath and took out the gun with trembling hands.

The gun was aimed at the treetops.

"boom."

The first shot went off without a hitch.

She clenched her teeth, and finally couldn't help it anymore, as if she was going all out, aimed at the looming figure, and then slammed hard, only to hear a bang.

hit the target.

The opponent fell from the tree.

Su Xiaoxiao took a deep breath.

The heart finally let go slowly.

Just when she was about to go up to check, she suddenly heard the sound of several horses' hooves, and the leader, a man in black clothes, came on horseback and quickly rushed to her side.

His piercing eyes swept over the dead coachman.

Then it fell on Su Xiaoxiao.

"Are you all right?"

He was a little surprised, he didn't expect that Su Xiaoxiao was fine and nothing happened, but the next moment, his brows frowned.

Just because he saw something in Su Xiaoxiao's hand.

"what is this?"

Su Xiaoxiao immediately put away the gun.

But then she remembered that Xiao Chen was a complete ancient man, he had never seen such a thing as a gun, so why did she have to hide it?

So she bit the bullet and said, "It's nothing."

Xiao Chen didn't care either.

The guard behind him went to the corpse to check it, then quickly returned, and said in a deep voice, "My lord, he is already dead, he was killed by a blow to the heart."

"It seems to be a hidden weapon."

Xiao Chen's eyes fell on Su Xiaoxiao.

Squint.

"Princess, what's going on?"

Su Xiaoxiao took a breath.

She knew that the death of the coachman and the death of the assassin, but she was still alive, really aroused suspicion, so she could only find a way to cover it up.

She took a deep breath.

"I don't know what happened. Someone wanted to kill me just now, but in the middle, someone saved me. After saving me, she left." Su Xiaoxiao lied and didn't write a draft.
