A figure suddenly attacked Mu Wanqin, and Gu An was caught off guard and had already grabbed Mu Wanqin in his hand.

"Ah, Childe! Someone, there's an assassin! Suddenly, Ruoyi exclaimed, but found that her young lady had been caught.

Suddenly, there was an uproar all around, and the soldiers aimed their weapons at the man who suddenly appeared.

This time, Leng Wushuang was wearing a silver mask, and no one knew who he was, nor did he know why he wanted to attack Mu Wanqin.

When Gu An saw this, he thought that Ding Shan and others had suddenly launched a plan.

But he didn't see the other two while waiting, and he was also a little puzzled in his heart, and this action was not explained in advance, he was a little worried, could it be that something happened that made them can't help but do it in advance? Or is it possible that someone else made the move this time?

However, he still calmly gave the order: "Protect the princess!" ”

He then had the Assassins surrounded in the middle. and then comforted this Ruoyi and reassured him.

"Who are you? Who sent you? Gu An thought that this person was one of the few people in Ding Shan, and asked casually.

"Without further ado, you let people get out of the way, where am I going!" With that, he pointed to the luxurious carriage.

"Huh? You're here to assassinate the princess! At this time, Wei Jingxuan spoke, and asked the man a little nervously.

The silver-masked man didn't look at him at all, but stared at Gu An tightly and said, "Do you think the person in my hands can withstand my strength!" ”

He was pinching Mu Wanqin's neck with his hand at the moment, and he could puncture his throat with a little force.

Wei Jingxuan hurriedly said to Gu An: "General Gu, you must not let this person go!" He openly assassinated Her Royal Highness the Princess, which was a provocation to my Chu State and a contempt for the national prestige of the Southern Tang Kingdom! ”

Wei Jingxuan was a little nervous at the moment, he was deeply afraid that Gu An would let go of this assassin for the sake of the person who was captured.

This assassination had a faint guess in his heart, it should be the Northern Yan forces, deliberately to sabotage the peace plan between the Southern Tang and the Chu State.

Even if he didn't agree to the marriage, but when things got to this point, he had to accept the reality.

But Yan Guo dared to send someone to assassinate, that was an intolerable behavior, and he also had huge worries in his heart.

On the one hand, it is not easy for him to explain this matter to the Emperor of Chu, after all, the monarch has explained the task, and he must complete it, and now someone has assassinated the princess, which is ignoring him Chu State!

In addition, this incident is now happening in the territory of the Chu State. If the Southern Tang State Lord takes the excuse, it will be a huge crisis for the Chu State, he is very helpless in his heart, but he can't do anything, this is the end of the weak country!

The most terrible thing is that Yan Guo is also resentful because of this harmony, and will turn a blind eye and sit idly by!

Although it will not see the State of Chu being destroyed by the Southern Tang Dynasty, it will also make the State of Chu hurt its muscles and bones, and its vitality will be greatly damaged. This is not the consequence that Wei Jingxuan wants to see.

So the only thing to deal with now is to take down the assassin as soon as possible, and then correct the law on the spot.

After listening to Wei Jingxuan's words, Gu An hesitated a little in his heart.

Now he was sure that this assassin was definitely not Ding Shan and the others, but an accident.

Then the answer is self-evident, this person is cold.

Therefore, he was worried about Mu Wanqin.

And Wei Jingxuan's request is not wrong, as the messenger this time, he has the responsibility to protect the safety of the princess.

Just as he was hesitating, the fourth princess walked over.

"It's dangerous here, princess, it's better for you to stay in the carriage!" Gu An was also startled when he saw the fourth princess coming. Now is not the time for them to act, but a real ambush and assassination!

"Major General, don't worry, I'm right here! With your protection, he can't hurt me. The fourth princess said to Gu An, then looked at the assassin and said, "Why did you assassinate the main palace?" Forget it, you won't say it if you think about it. You let go of the people in your hands, and this palace promises to let you leave safely! ”

"What?" Gu An and Wei Jingxuan were also surprised when they heard it.

Gu An was moved in his heart, he thought that this was the princess who saved his friend for him.

But Wei Jingxuan looked at Mu Wanqin with some confusion, not understanding why this person was worth the princess's life to risk to save him.

Could it be that this man is the princess's lover?

He then dismissed the idea, which was impossible. Because even so, it is impossible for that person to come with him, this is a matter that damages the face of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and that person has already been beheaded by the Southern Tang Emperor for public display.

"Princess, Gu An thanked you for Shaobai!" Gu An looked at the fourth princess gratefully and said.

"Hehe, you really need to thank me! However, she is also my friend. The fourth princess was talking about her, not "Mu Shaobai".

But Gu An couldn't understand all this.

And Wei Jingxuan also understood what was going on, it turned out that the person was Gu An's friend, and he also knew the princess, so he wanted to save him.

Wei Jingxuan pondered for a while, and then stopped insisting on arresting the assassin.

"Are you done? You still want me to let him go, dream! Leng Wushuang saw that Gu An and the others were ignoring his existence, and where he was talking, he suddenly became angry.

"Uh, sorry, sorry! Don't be nervous, if you have something to say, or you let Shaobai go first, how about I take you hostage! Gu An thought that his friend was still in the hands of the other party, and he was also a weak scholar who was powerless, so he couldn't help but say nervously.

"Needless to say, I have only one purpose, that is, Princess Nantang, if you want your friend, then use her - in exchange!" Leng Wushuang pointed at the fourth princess with one hand, and grabbed Mu Wanqin's neck tightly with the other.

"Why don't we release the arrows?" Wei Jingxuan whispered at this time, he was about to secretly shoot the assassin. Although he acted uprightly, he was not rigid either.

"No way!" Gu An and the princess vetoed this proposal at the same time.

Wei Jingxuan was very aggrieved at the moment, if he hadn't taken care of the overall situation and thought about the safety of the Chu State, he would have spoken in such a low voice.

And Gu An and the fourth princess glanced at each other and smiled.

"You've got it figured! Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless. Leng Wushuang was a little impatient.

"Don't, don't, you'd better change your requirements!" Gu An hurriedly said, just kidding, it is absolutely impossible to exchange the princess for this. But he wouldn't watch Mu Shaobai fall into danger either.

This person resolutely chose to follow him here when he was in difficulty and gave him countless help. Now in such a situation, it is all for him. He was also extremely guilty.

How does this make him a favor for Shaobai!

"Nothing but the princess!" Leng Wushuang's eyes became a little cold, "It seems that you don't want to save your friend!" ”

"This-" Gu Anxin was anxious, but there was no safe way.

Just then the princess spoke.

"Let him go, I'll swap with her!" The fourth princess said suddenly.

"No! Princess, this will never work! Gu An shook his head and said.

"Yes! Princess, how can you risk your own money? Wei Jingxuan also persuaded.

And the princess is extremely calm at the moment, she is married this time, obviously her father gave up on her, why don't she die!

And it can also save Mu Wanqin and give Brother An a beautiful girl, which is also a good thing!

So she had the heart to fulfill the Assassin's wish.

It's not that she is looking for death, but that she mourns more than she dies.

Because her heart is dead!
