I just want to live a good life

Chapter 266 Danger, Lie Down

"Your Highness, what did Lord Shen say? Why did the third brother kill people?"

As soon as she saw Mu Yunting, Su Nuan couldn't wait to ask.

"Don't worry, we don't know the details yet, but don't worry, Lord Shen from the Ministry of Justice will delay the case for a few days and wait until we return to the Imperial City to try it. Don't worry, I'm here with you."

Su Nuan knew that with Mu Yunting's identity, it was possible to save her brother's life, but she was afraid that someone would deliberately harm him and kill him before Mu Yunting returned to the imperial city. After all, there was the emperor above the prince. If the matter came before the emperor, even if the Minister of Justice wanted to delay, he would not be able to save her brother.

"Your Highness, my injuries are all healed, I think--"

"No."

"Your Highness, Third Brother is not a violent person. I don't believe he killed someone. There must be some hidden reason. I'm afraid if I go back too late, he will be harmed by someone."

"I will ride with you tomorrow morning."

"Your Highness, saving people is the most important thing. If you go into the prison of the Ministry of Justice, you can peel off a piece of skin. If we go back one day later, my third brother will suffer in there for a day. I will change into men's clothes and leave tonight. I will be back to the imperial city tomorrow evening. Can you lend me your token so that I can go to the Ministry of Justice to see my third brother first?"

Mu Yunting finally understood. She was not discussing with him when to leave, but wanted to borrow a token from him, which meant that she had already planned to rush back overnight.

"Be obedient. This stretch of road is not safe. It's not safe to walk at night. Let's set off early tomorrow morning. I will send a message back overnight to ensure that no one dares to torture Changze before you return."

Su Nuan hesitated for a moment and then nodded in agreement.

Mu Yunting finally breathed a sigh of relief. The two of them will go ahead tomorrow, and he still has to make some arrangements. Leng Yue and Liao Xinyi will be entrusted to the care of Princess Guang'an, while Yu Zhiqiu and Mei Runian, who are escorting with the team, will ask Prince Guang'an to bring the people back safely.

There are other things that need him to coordinate.

That night, Su Nuan was in a heavy mood and tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Finally, she closed her eyes and fell asleep when Mu Yunting held her tightly in his arms.

The next day it was just dawn.

Su Nuan and Mu Yunting set off with several secret guards including Falcon and Liefeng.

What surprised Su Nuan was that Mu Yunting actually brought Chu Qi with him.

Then Su Qingmo and Chu Qi followed the group like conjoined twins.

Not to mention that they were speeding along the way, Mu Yunting handed Leng Yue and Liao Xinyi to Princess Guang'an. The moment Princess Guang'an saw Leng Yue, she was so shocked that she was speechless.

Because of her injuries, Leng Yue rode alone in a carriage all the way. Meals were brought to her in the carriage or in her room. She had never shown her face in public. This was the first time Princess Guang'an saw her face.

Leng Yue knew from her expression that this person had seen Xun Zheng, but she did not show any emotion.

After breakfast, everyone got on the carriage and prepared to set off.

Two maids helped Leng Yue into the car.

When Princess Guang'an saw this, she immediately asked her maid to help.

Her actions attracted the attention of Prince Guang'an. He looked in the direction of Leng Yue, but when he saw only the profile of Leng Yue, he stood there in a daze.

"My lord, what's wrong with you?"

Princess Guang'an asked kindly.

Prince Guang'an did not answer but asked, "Who is that woman?"

"That's His Royal Highness's man, his name is Leng Yue."

"She is the prince's person?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince entrusted me to take care of him, and told me to bring him safely to the Imperial City and to the Crown Prince's residence."

"Does the prince recognize Miss Leng Yue?"

"do not know."

Prince Guang'an stepped onto the carriage.

Princess Guang'an had a meaningful smile on her face.

After Mu Yunting left, the entire team was handed over to the command of Prince Guang'an. He said to go and go, and he said he didn't want to stay in the post station. So the team entered Fenglin Town, which is the largest town outside the imperial city. There is a Wanjin Tower in the town, and the girls in the tower are beautiful and charming.

Leng Yue left for a month, and when she came back the scenery and people hadn't changed, but her mood was different.

She didn't want to be recognized, so she put on a veil.

Everyone stayed in the largest inn in Fenglin Town.

Leng Yue and Liao Xinyi were arranged to live in the upper room on the third floor.

Princess Guang'an felt a little unwell, so as soon as she checked into the inn, she went to see Liao Xinyi for medical treatment.

As soon as she left, Prince Guang'an knocked on Leng Yue's door.

.

Su Nuan and his companions had been traveling non-stop since daybreak, and when night fell they arrived at the foot of Buyi Mountain.

Both the man and the horse were extremely tired.

Mu Yunting ordered the team to rest in the valley beside the official road.

Liefeng and two other secret guards led the horses to drink water and eat grass. Falcon took out some cold steamed buns and distributed them to everyone.

While chewing on a steamed bun, Su Nuan heard a secret guard ask Lie Ying: "You and Lie Feng were injured and almost died here, right?"

"Yes, we both rolled down the mountain and landed in the bushes in front of us. It was really dangerous. The opponents were all experts. Liefeng and I were no match for one of them. We are lucky to be alive."

"I don't know where those people came from, but they have such skills."

"Anyway, he's not an ordinary person."

"It's a pity that one of them escaped during the last encirclement and suppression. I don't know when I'll meet him next time."

Hearing this, Su Nuanxin said: Silly boy, I've already told you are no match for him, why are you still saying this? What if you actually meet him?

Suddenly, the sound of feather arrows breaking through the air came from far away. Su Nuan shouted without thinking, "Danger, lie down," and then she threw Mu Yunting to the grass.

At the same time, she caught a glimpse of a figure flashing out of the corner of her eye.

It’s over. We really encountered an assassin. Without Ye Yin, can we stop him with only five secret guards?

Mu Yunting is still here, and he can't afford to make any mistakes. Otherwise, he might not be able to survive, and Xia Changze is doomed to die.

Thinking of this, Su Nuan protected Mu Yunting tightly under her body.

Maybe she had taken too many tonic medicines, her strength was amazing, she pressed down Mu Yunting with all her strength, and Mu Yunting was unable to turn over.

"Let me up."

Mu Yunting said in a deep voice.

"No, it's dangerous."

Su Nuan held Mu Yunting tightly and refused to let go.

Mu Yunting was deeply moved, but how could a grown man like him let a woman protect him? Besides, he also had to get up and see what the situation was!

How many assassins are there and what their fighting power is? Should our side fight or retreat? If we really can't win, we can't just lie here and wait to die.

"Listen, let me get up. If it's really dangerous, we can run!"

"Oh, that's right." Su Nuan felt that her IQ had dropped because of that arrow, and she actually forgot such a simple truth as just running away if she couldn't win.

So, he quickly got up.

Falcon and the other secret guard were already protecting the two of them.

Mu Yunting asked: "How many people are there on the other side?"

The falcon replied: "It's not clear yet. I only shot one arrow and then there was no movement."

Su Nuan looked around and didn't see Chu Qi, so she asked Falcon: "Have you seen Chu Qi?"

"He ran away!"

"Run away?" Su Nuan asked in surprise.

Falcon said with a hint of disdain in his tone, "He ran away as soon as the arrow was shot at him. He ran faster than a rabbit."

Su Nuan knew that the man was timid, but she didn't expect him to be so disloyal and run away when he encountered danger.
