Queen is fearless

Chapter 745 Accident
Yuan Zhen knew that the place where they could hunt was prepared by the emperor alone under the orders of his father.

Most of the prey here are not aggressive, and they are very safe for this group of children.

The route I am taking now is within the safe range. No matter how unlucky I am, I should meet one or two prey.

However, after walking for a long time, I didn't see a single prey, which made Yuan Zhen very puzzled.

A gust of wind blew, Yuan Zhen suddenly reined in the pony's reins, her face changed slightly.

In the breeze, there was a smell of blood...

Putting away the small bow and arrow, and replaced with a dagger, Yuan Zhen looked around warily, she always felt that she seemed to be being watched.

From the woods not far away, there was a rustling sound, something was approaching.

Even if Yuan Zhen was brave, she was a little girl after all, and she was still very nervous in her heart. The sense of crisis made her subconsciously bite her lip.

The rustling sound was getting closer and closer, and soon, a wild beast came out of the forest, making Yuan Zhen's face even more ugly.

Not only her, but also the dark guards who were protecting in the dark also changed their faces. They didn't expect that there would be extremely aggressive beasts in this safe area.

He didn't care about continuing to hide, he appeared from the shadows, protecting Yuan Zhen and Xiao Ma Ju.

"Your Highness, go!" Without turning his head, he also held a dagger in his hand, staring at the beast not far away warily.

Seeing the two of them, the beast growled lowly. There were bloodstains on its paws, but looking at it, it didn't look like it was injured. It seemed that the blood on the paws was not its own.

Although the hidden guard was good, the beast in front of him was not small, so he didn't dare to push it too big, after all, there was Yuan Zhen behind him.

He took out the signal flare from his pocket, and he planned to ask his companions to help him, but unexpectedly, before the signal flare was sent out, the beast suddenly moved forward and attacked him.

The signal bomb in his hand fell to the ground, and the dark guard did not dare to take it lightly, fighting with the beast.

When the dark guard was talking, Yuan Zhen wanted to leave. Instead of staying and waiting for the beast to attack, she should quickly find some people to help protect her dark guard and deal with the beast.

Unexpectedly, after seeing the beast, the pony she was riding lay down on the ground, obviously frightened.

No matter how Yuan Zhen urged, the pony didn't move, so she had no choice but to get off the horse and look at the signal flare that fell on the ground.

If the flare can be lifted into the air, it will be safe soon.

So, while a man and a beast were attacking each other, she tried to move towards the flare.

The beast's vigilance was very strong, and when she moved, the beast immediately roared. Noticing the unusual behavior of the beast, the dark guard turned his head and saw Yuan Zhen approaching, so he called her to run quickly.

He was really struggling to deal with this beast, and he might not last long.

Just as he finished shouting, the beast suddenly stepped forward and bit his arm, causing him to almost faint from the pain.

Yuan Zhen is about to hit the signal flare, as long as the signal flare lifts into the air, someone will come to help immediately, so that those who protect her can save their lives.

Thinking, she grabbed the signal flare and prepared to launch it into the air.

Maybe the beast has seen it before, or maybe something else, the moment Yuan Zhen grabbed the signal flare, the beast suddenly let go of the guard and rushed towards Yuan Zhen.

The distance was not far away, seeing that the bloody mouth was getting closer and closer to her, Yuan Zhen couldn't move for a while, and could only stand there, watching the beast approaching.

'call out! 'The arrow flew over and was nailed to the eyes of the beast. Immediately, the beast howled and didn't care to kill Yuan Zhen again.

Yuan Zhen really wanted to leave, but her legs were already so frightened that if she moved, she would definitely sit on the ground.

Without caring much, she quickly lifted the signal flare into the air, and at the same time, fell to the ground.

A pair of hands stretched out from behind to support her. She was a little surprised, but when she turned around, it turned out to be Ji Heng.

At this time, Ji Heng, with an indescribably serious expression, supported Yuan Zhen, let her hide behind him, bent his bow and set an arrow again, and attacked the beast.

The signal flare was lifted into the air, and the nearby dark guards rushed over quickly. By the time the beast tried to prepare an attack, it was already dead.

"Your Highness, are you alright?" Seeing the hidden guards appear, Ji Heng was relieved, and he only realized something was wrong after walking a certain distance.

Thinking that Yuan Zhen was also going this way, he also came towards this direction. Later, when he heard the low roar of the beast, he rushed over without thinking about it. Fortunately, he came in time.

"I'm fine." After the crisis was over, Yuan Zhen simply sat on the ground, thinking of what happened just now, she was afraid for a while.

"Why are there wild beasts here? Haven't they been cleaned up?" Looking at the hidden guards rushing over, Yuan Zhen frowned and asked.

"Your Highness, please forgive me. I will investigate later." The hidden guards also wanted to know why the beast suddenly appeared. Afterwards, the emperor would definitely ask, and they had to figure it out as soon as possible.

Many people saw the signal flare going up before. Yuan Cheng and others rushed here and saw the beasts on the ground, all of them had ugly faces.

"Let's go back first." An accident happened suddenly, no matter how high the interest was before, it is gone now, Yuan Cheng looked at Yuan Zhen and made sure she was fine, so he was relieved.

After giving an order, a group of people headed back to the place where they set up camp. Yuan Cheng and Ji Heng protected Yuan Zhen in the middle.

Turning his head to look at Ji Heng, seeing that he saved Yuan Zhen just now, Yuan Cheng chose to ignore the fact that he was standing beside Yuan Zhen.

The news spread back to the camping place, Gu Jinzhi stood outside the tent, looked towards the forest, saw the children coming back, and rushed to greet them.

Looking at the children and seeing that they were not injured, Gu Jinzhi felt relieved.

Zhou Jing also rushed back. Knowing this, he was very angry and ordered an immediate thorough investigation to see if it was a real accident or man-made.

If it was at his time, it must be man-made, but it is impossible to be sure now, there are only three children in the palace, and the position of the crown prince has also been confirmed, so there is no reason for such a thing to happen.

What's more, it was Yuan Zhen who met, not Yuan Cheng, and the prince was Yuan Cheng, not Yuan Zhen.

Therefore, it was most likely an accident, this beast wasn't even in the paddock, otherwise it wouldn't be so wild.

Fortunately, Ji Heng showed up in time to delay the time.

The pony that Yuan Zhen was riding before was temporarily taken away by the palace people, and Zhou Jing will re-select it for her later.

After all, at such a critical moment, the little pony was too scared to leave, which only showed that the little pony's bloodline was not good enough.

If it is really a good horse, even in that situation, there will not be too many accidents, Yuan Zhen can leave safely, and the hidden guard will not be injured like that.

After confirming it a few times, knowing that Yuan Zhen is really fine, Gu Jinzhi hugged her in his arms, feeling scared for a while.
