Chapter 665: The Assassin Strikes
Ye Haixuan suddenly tightened the reins and shouted to the entire team.
The marching team immediately stopped, and everyone looked at Ye Haixuan with curious eyes.
The wind is calm, the only thing that moves is the trees on the mountain, and you can even see a few rabbits shuttling through it.
All in all, no problem at all.
"What's wrong?" asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince beside Ye Haixuan.
Ye Haixuan put his index finger on his lips, his eyes were full of vigilance and solemnity, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince couldn't help but slow down his breathing, for fear of disturbing his thinking.
"I clearly felt a malicious gaze and murderous aura behind me just now. ”
"Hahaha!" He Xiaoxiao's voice came from the carriage: "Brother-in-law, can you still feel this murderous aura?"
He Jingjing heard this and smiled faintly.
"Haixuan, isn't there something unfounded about the sky? There are so many people in our Celestial Empire army, who doesn't dare to keep an eye on us?"
"That's it!"
He Xiaoxiao and He Jingjing sang and harmonized in the carriage, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also agreed.
"I'm afraid your soul is still on the battlefield, isn't it? Where can there be any danger? ”
Ye Haixuan shook his head, his instincts would not be wrong.
Just now, I clearly felt a malicious gaze, and it disappeared in an instant.
"You guys, come here. Ye Haixuan ordered eight of them, and he has been following his brothers in the Tiger Camp, all of them are extraordinary.
"Grand Commander!"
"You fence the carriage of the county lord and the crown princess, protect them along the way, and if there is any mistake, come and see you!"
"Yes!"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was helpless, and Ye Haixuan's move was indeed a bit unfounded in his opinion.
"Back on the road!"
Although the group returned to the road, Ye Haixuan's eyes never relaxed their vigilance, always looking up and down, his eyes were like torches, guarding against possible dangers around him.
Seeing Ye Haixuan like this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince couldn't help muttering in his heart.
Could it really be that there was some accident just now?
The reconnaissance ability of the commander is obvious to all, and it is a first-class existence in the army of the Celestial Empire.
What he can see through, others can't see.
After thinking for a moment, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also followed suit, guarding against possible dangers in all directions.
He Jingjing and He Xiaoxiao The two sisters were at ease, no matter how they said that Ye Haixuan and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were guarding outside, and they began to giggle again, eating small snacks and whispering.
"Great Commander, there are people on the mountain!" A shout suddenly came from outside the carriage, and He Jingjing and He Xiaoxiao's hearts instantly rose to their throats.
Ye Haixuan lifted the carriage curtain and smiled inside: "It's okay, you guys play with yours." ”
Turning around and lowering the curtain, his face was grim.
"I've watched it carefully, there must be no mistakes!"
Even though he was already convinced of Ye Haixuan just now, but now that he heard the news that there seemed to be someone in the forest on the mountain, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was still shocked, and then he was endlessly relieved.
It is really a blessing for the people that the Celestial Empire has such a great ruler.
Although He Xiaoxiao was comforted, the pregnant woman was easy to think wildly, and she lost the interest in eating snacks in an instant, and only raised her hand to lift the corner of the carriage curtain, and saw that there seemed to be a few figures in black clothes, rushing towards this side, frightened, and stiff.
When He Jingjing saw it, she hurriedly held He Xiaoxiao's hand, and when she looked up, she saw the black shadow rushing towards Ye Haixuan, and in an instant, the sound of swords colliding outside the carriage was full.
It's true! An assassin is coming!
He Xiaoxiao threw herself into He Jingjing's arms, and the outside was already in a mess, and the sound was getting closer and closer.
"Eldest sister, I'm afraid!" He Xiaoxiao trembled her body and voice, where had she ever seen such a scene?
He Jingjing's heart also jumped, but holding He Xiaoxiao in her arms, she instantly calmed down again, and patted He Xiaoxiao's shoulder: "Don't be afraid, the eldest sister is with you, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Haixuan are outside, it's okay." ”
Those assassins seemed to be deliberately approaching the carriage, thinking that they should be going for He Xiaoxiao and He Jingjing.
Ye Haixuan's mind turned around a thousand times, and he had already spared time to think about what kind of way these people came from.
"Your kung fu is really not good!" Ye Haixuan snorted coldly, the long sword was unsheathed, and he leaped up from his horse, picking and turning, hooking and spinning, killing the assassin who was about to enter the carriage window.
Fortunately, Ye Haixuan had already been on guard all the way, and at this moment, the well-trained soldiers of the Celestial Empire were already handy, more than enough.
But for a moment, after Ding Lingdang was noisy for a while, the heavens and the earth were silent again.
"It's all right, the assassins have been driven away. Ye Haixuan and half of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince leaned into the carriage and comforted He Xiaoxiao and He Jingjing.
He Xiaoxiao poked her head out of He Jingjing's arms and looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince timidly, which made His Royal Highness the Crown Prince anxious for a while.
If he wasn't still on the road now, he would definitely hold He Xiaoxiao in his arms and comfort him.
After getting out of the carriage and getting back on the horse, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hugged Ye Haixuan's fist.
"The leader is worthy of the leader, and this time thanks to you. ”
Ye Haixuan smiled and waved his hand: "When did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince become polite to my brother-in-law?"
"Great Commander, this assassin still has a breath!" Liao An said to Ye Haixuan in surprise as he stood beside the assassin who was stabbed by Ye Haixuan.
"Let the military doctor bandage him a little, and you must ask me what the origin of this person is!"
"Yes!"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at Ye Haixuan's gaze with some hesitation and puzzlement.
"What's wrong?"
"Commander, do you really think this man can tell you who is behind him?"
This kind of unfathomable assassin is usually a dead soldier, and since he was ordered to come, he never thought of returning alive.
"Of course, I don't expect him to tell me who is behind this, but if he can't stand the fear and tell the truth, it will save a lot of trouble. ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince heard Ye Haixuan's voice: "Do you already know where these people are coming from?"
"Look at the tattoo on the assassin's back, but it's a totem of a neighboring country?" Ye Haixuan sneered with disdain: "Yan Ruyu is really getting more and more stupid, and he actually found such a marked person to assassinate Jingjing." ”
"Why did you see that you were here to assassinate Jingjing, isn't there still Xiaoxiao in the carriage?" asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rhetorically.
His sword had already reached into the carriage just now, but it was Xiaoxiao who was beside the bed, and he hesitated, which gave Hai Xuan a chance to kill him. He Jingjing's voice came from the carriage: "He was hesitating whether to kill Xiaoxiao together, but unfortunately in such a moment, his life was ruined." ”
"At such an unprofessional moment, death is self-inflicted. ”
