Strategy of Prince's Concubine's Rebellion

Chapter 1261 Rest here

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and only punctured his clothes.

Fei Shi was shocked.

Who are these people?

How dare you be so bold as to assassinate His Highness Prince Chen?

Moreover, his moves are vicious and deadly.

A native of Chu?
No, it won't.

The Chu people's target should be their princess.

These people obviously don't even want to deal with the princess, they just want Her Highness' life!

Who else could it be?

Who has such a big grudge against His Highness?
And who could know his arrangements in advance, sneak in during the chaos, and hurt His Highness?
Fei Shi and the Yan soldiers were still fighting to the death with the assassin, while two astute guards and the Princess of Chu protected Murong Chen as he escaped.

However, the assassins were also well-trained. One of them, who seemed to be the leader, saw Murong Chen escaping and gave a secret signal, asking the others to entangle Fei Shi, while he hurriedly chased after him.

When the two guards saw the assassin chasing after them, they shouted to Princess Yingxue: "Take Your Highness away quickly!"

After saying that, he drew his sword and rushed back.

Princess Yingxue knew that it was a matter of life and death, so she pulled Murong Chen and ran forward desperately.

Although the two guards temporarily stopped the assassin, they were not good at martial arts after all, and they were far different from Fei Shi and others.

In the end, one person was fighting with him, and the other person tightly hugged the assassin's legs and refused to let go after being stabbed more than ten times.

This gave Murong Chen and Princess Yingxue enough time to escape.

The sky was completely dark.

I couldn't see the road under my feet clearly, nor could I see the surrounding environment clearly. I could only see the shadows of the surrounding trees.

The two of them didn't know how far they had traveled.

Suddenly, Princess Yingxue's foot slipped, and in a panic, she tore off a piece of climbing vine on the mountain wall.

"Brother Chen, there is a cave here!"

Princess Yingxue shouted in surprise.

"I'll take you in to have a rest, and we'll find a way out when it gets daylight."

Although Murong Chen regained consciousness and could barely move, he still had no strength.

With difficulty he took out a fire stick from his sleeve pocket and used it to light a dead branch.Li Li said: "Let's take a look first, ahem, to see if there is any danger inside."

Princess Yingxue nodded and was about to take the dead branch.

Murong Chen smiled: "Silly girl, how can I let you take risks?"

After saying that, he walked unsteadily inside.

Princess Yingxue picked up a thicker branch and held it tightly in her hand.

"I'll go in with you."

The entrance to the cave is a bit narrow. After walking a few steps inside, you will see a spacious open space.

There was a thatched bed in the middle, and a torn animal skin boot was randomly placed beside the bed.

It seems that some hunters stayed here temporarily while hunting.

Murong Chen breathed a sigh of relief: "Let's take a rest here tonight."

Princess Yingxue seems to be no longer the delicate girl.

She picked up some dead branches, lit a fire, and piled the torn vines at the entrance of the cave to make the cave more hidden.

"Cough cough!"

Murong Chen, who was sitting on the haystack, spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Brother Chen!"

Princess Yingxue ran over quickly, took out her embroidered handkerchief, and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth while shedding anxious tears.

"Is the antidote useless? I'm going down the mountain to find a doctor now!"

"Xue'er, don't leave!"

Murong Chen grabbed her arm.

"With you gone, Brother Chen really can't hold on any longer."

Looking at Murong Chen's frail and pale face, Princess Yingxue trembled: "Are you going to die?"

Murong Chen smiled: "Do you want me to die?"

Princess Yingxue twitched her reddish nose: "It's already this time, do you still have the intention to joke?"

"I'm serious, do you still want me to die?"
