The pet career of Shaoqing of Dali Temple

Chapter 383 The escort is injured, the prince is one step behind

A sharp arrow shot from behind.

The guards in front could feel it, but they were entangled by those assassins, and they couldn't spare any manpower to protect the emperor and Ru Xiaonan.

The emperor grabbed Ru Xiaonan and held her in his arms.

Ru Xiaonan was terrified when she heard the sound of cold arrows passing by her side.

The emperor's breathing became obviously short, and Ru Xiaonan smelled a stronger smell of blood.

"Uncle Emperor...how are you?" Ru Xiaonan poked her head out from under the emperor's sleeve.

She really didn't expect that the emperor would protect her.

"It's okay." The emperor replied in a low voice, while pulling her back.

At this time, a dozen or so assassins sprang out from the position where the cold arrow was shot just now, and came straight to them.

Ru Xiaonan was determined to call out a stupid dog. In fact, calling Qianshang is the best policy, but Qing Moyan once told her that she must not call Qianshang in front of outsiders, otherwise she will be killed. Cause endless trouble.

Just when Ru Xiaonan was about to make seals with her hands and summon the stupid dog, Qing Moyan led the people back to block the assassins coming from behind.

Ru Xiaonan's seal was only half done, and she suddenly saw Qing Moyan staggering.

She groaned inwardly.

Could it be that Qing Moyan used her internal force just now?
Qing Moyan took another step back, the sword in her hand was clearly out of order.

"Qingmoyan!" Ru Xiaonan couldn't help shouting.

Qing Moyan turned her head slightly, and glanced at them.

At this moment, Ru Xiaonan noticed that an assassin's sword was coming across, missed Qing Moyan's side, and stabbed at the emperor.

The emperor must not be allowed to have an accident here.

Ru Xiaonan didn't have time to think, and hugged the emperor.

"... Mo Yan!"

She heard the emperor call Qing Moyan's name, her tone was anxious.

Turning around, I was surprised to see Qing Moyan falling backwards behind her.

Ru Xiaonan's hands and feet went numb from fright.

At this moment, the emperor seemed much calmer, and he took a step forward to catch Qing Moyan's body.

Ru Xiaonan rushed over, only to see that Qing Moyan was hit by a sword on the left side near her chest, and her clothes were soon soaked in blood.

"Qingmoyan! Qingmoyan!" Ru Xiaonan forgot about the danger around her, and all the voices seemed to disappear from her ears.

When the little hand was placed on his body, it felt warm, wet and sticky.

"Qing Moyan, don't scare me." Hugging him, Ru Xiaonan's mind went blank.

She didn't know how badly he was hurt, and she didn't know if anything would happen to him.

The emperor grabbed the long sword that Qing Moyan dropped, and roared angrily.

"Kill without mercy!"

Seeing that the emperor was angry, the guards did not dare to be negligent, and each of them tried their best, and they no longer wanted to keep alive.

Qing Moyan's face was as pale as paper, but she was very sober.

Seeing Ru Xiaonan crying, hesitation flashed in his eyes, and he gently squeezed her little hand.

"I'm fine." He said to her silently.

But now Ru Xiaonan was crying with tears in her eyes, she didn't see what he said clearly, the emperor was right in front of them, he couldn't hint her anything, so he could only close his eyes.

Seeing his eyes closed, Ru Xiaonan burst into tears.

Qing Moyan was almost deafened by the sound.

It took a full stick of incense before the guards killed the assassins.

While tidying up the battlefield, someone found something on the assassin.

"Your Majesty, this seems to belong to the Qinghou Mansion." The guard handed over the things found on the assassin's body to the Emperor.

When the emperor saw the thing, his veins jumped up and down.

"Qinghou Mansion?"

Qing Moyan opened her eyes.

The emperor took that thing to Qing Moyan, "Do you recognize this?"

It was a white jade ring with the seal of Qinghou Mansion engraved on it.

Qing Moyan closed her eyes and spit out a few words: "Impossible."

Ru Xiaonan also felt that it was impossible for those people to be sent by the Qinghou Mansion.

Didn't Qing Moyan say that the crown prince has arranged staff before, these people should be sent by the crown prince.

But she dared not speak nonsense.

Qing Moyan breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had regained some strength, "It can't be the Qinghou Mansion... Since it's here to assassinate... how could it be possible to carry such a token with you..."

Ordinarily this is common sense.

Assassinations and the like must be concealed, not to mention tokens, and even the clothes and weapons on the body must not have any marks.

As it is now, it is obviously reminiscent of Qinghou's Mansion, and the meaning of planting is too heavy.

But the emperor didn't think so.

Master Qing has never been fond of Qing Moyan, and now that he knows whose son Qing Moyan is, there have been repeated rumors that their father and son are at odds in the city, and there are even rumors that Master Qing sent people to assassinate him several times Green ink color.

All this strengthened the emperor's view.

"Hurry up, take him back to the camp first." The emperor ordered.

"No need..." Qing Moyan was helped up by Ru Xiaonan, "I can ride a horse..."

"No." The emperor said angrily, "Get a stretcher and carry him back to the camp."

Qing Moyan looked at Ru Xiaonan in embarrassment.

The emperor immediately realized what he was hesitating about.

"When I go back, Xiaonan will ride with me."

Qing Moyan no longer insisted, and was carried by several guards, and returned to the camp together.

When everyone heard that the emperor had been assassinated, there was an uproar in the camp.

The prince even brought the imperial physician here.

The emperor placed Qing Moyan in his camp, and no one was allowed to enter.

Finally, when there were no other people around, Qing Moyan had a chance to appease Ru Xiaonan.

"If you cry again, I will really die." He smiled wryly.

Ru Xiaonan's eyes were swollen into peaches, she couldn't help but stare at him blankly after hearing this, puzzled.

Qing Moyan sighed silently, "You silly girl, no matter how bad I am, I won't block the sword with my body, I know that."

Ru Xiaonan's eyes suddenly widened, "You, you..." She looked down at the wound on Qing Moyan's chest, and pressed down with her fingers.

Qing Moyan almost jumped up in pain.

"This injury is real." Ru Xiaonan was puzzled.

Qing Moyan put her hand on her forehead, "Of course it's true, it's just that the injury wasn't that deep."

Did she think she could fool the past with fake injuries?
"Qing Moyan, you are necrotic, why didn't you tell me earlier." Ru Xiaonan muttered.

"How do I know when the crown prince will strike? Besides, your appearance is the most convincing." Qing Moyan lay down again, even though the wound was not deep, blood still came out from her pressing just now.

"Those people were really sent by the prince?" Ru Xiaonan asked.

Qing Moyan nodded, "I need your help with something."

Ru Xiaonan straightened her back proudly, "Go ahead."

Qing Moyan whispered to her for a while, and Ru Xiaonan nodded repeatedly.

Outside the tent, the prince was about to come in with the imperial physician, accompanying the emperor.

Suddenly Ru Xiaonan came out, and timidly approached the emperor, "Uncle Emperor, Qing Moyan cannot see the imperial physician."

"Why?" The emperor also suffered an arrow wound on his arm, which was left when he was protecting Ru Xiaonan.

Ru Xiaonan glanced at the prince, as if she was avoiding others.

The emperor asked the prince and the imperial physician to stay outside the tent, while he brought Ru Xiaonan into the tent.

"What's going on?" the emperor asked with a frown.

"Qing Moyan has Gu poison in his body, ordinary doctors can't heal him at all, if not, he will be harmed instead."

"How about that?"

"Over the years, the chief medical officer of Dali Temple has always hated to treat Qing Moyan, so I can only find him."

The emperor frowned again.

"Could it be... the person who once entered the palace to see a doctor for the young prince Yu Jingqi?"

Ru Xiaonan nodded, "Exactly, but Uncle Emperor must not spread this matter."

The emperor understood Ru Xiaonan's hint, and immediately sent someone to prepare a carriage to send Qing Moyan back to the capital.

The crown prince and the imperial physician stood outside the tent and watched the guards carry Qing Moyan away, a trace of disappointment flashed deep in their eyes.

Still one step short.
