Chu Ci and his party are still on the road slowly, and since they know that the girl who can make the cows and sheep dance is Qin Fengyi's new appointment, Chu Ci is not much interested in finding out.

Of course, Chu Ci is still curious about Zhou Yunxi's ability to make cattle and sheep dance.

"Your Highness, will it be too slow for us to pass so leisurely?"

The people who were with Chu Ci and the people sent by the emperor naturally had a lot of dissatisfaction with Chu Ci's current itinerary. But because Chu Ci has always been indifferent, the emperor appreciates and favors him, and this person is not too disrespectful to Chu Ci.

"Slow?" Chu Ci squinted, his eyes were a little displeased, "Lord Zhang, this prince's body has always been bad, if this car is faster, wouldn't it be a toss for this prince?" ”

Hearing this, Lord Zhang suddenly knelt down in front of Chu Ci with his robe, and arched his hand: "Weichen doesn't dare, it's just that the emperor has an order, and it really can't be delayed!" ”

"Zhang Ling!"

"Presumptuous, who gave you the courage to speak to Lord Zhang like this?" Chu Ci raised his hand to stop the personal guard who was speaking, with a slight smile on his face, he looked at Zhang Ling and said, "Although Lord Zhang is a little rude, but in the end, it is the person next to the prime minister, and this prince is not easy to offend." ”

These words made Zhang Ling suddenly feel excited, and then said more and more respectfully: "Your Highness is serious, the king is the king, the minister is the minister, how dare the minister be like this?" ”

"Lord Zhang, what are you doing?" Chu Ci smiled and motioned to the guard beside him to help Zhang Ling up, "When you go out, where is there a prince who is not a prince?" Now, we're just a group of businessmen, and you call me Young Master. ”

"Etiquette should not be abolished."

Zhang Ling is a smart person, otherwise he would not have been directly asked by the emperor to follow Chu Ci to find Zhou Yunxi with Zhang Xiaotian's acquiescence.

"I'll stay here tonight, I'll be better tomorrow, and it's not too late to whip up." Chu Ci smiled and did not continue the topic, which made Zhang Ling respond softly, and there was no intention to refute it.

Chu Ci seemed to have given Zhang Ling enough face, and he seemed to be really afraid of Zhang Xiaotian behind Zhang Ling, but Zhang Ling knew that Chu Ci was just insinuating to warn him.

As for being afraid or not being afraid—

In the end, Chu Ci is the prince, that is, he is jealous of Zhang Xiaotian, and he does not dare to offend Zhang Xiaotian, and Zhang Ling is still not ranked. Don't talk about anything else, let's just say that if Zhang Ling really provokes Chu Ci to anger, Zhang Xiaotian may not be able to protect him!

"Your Highness, didn't you say to go slowly, so as not to disturb that person?"

"It's almost time." When Chu Ci heard this, he only opened the folding fan slowly, although the weather is still cold now, but because Chu Ci did not fan the fan, it will not bring the wind, "If it drags on any longer, the prime minister in the capital will have to be suspicious of me." ”

As soon as these words came out, the guard immediately understood the intention of Chu Ci.

Although Zhang Xiaotian has always looked down on his own prince, who has no ambition for the throne, surveillance is also indispensable.

It was okay for Chu Ci to slow down the trip before, but now that it has been so long, if he continues to drag, he is afraid that after the Zhang family reports back, Zhang Xiaotian will be suspicious.

"Can you find out what is going on in the town?"

Chu Ci thought about it, and suddenly realized that the vicinity of the town seemed to be the mine mentioned by the ministers of the court. In this way, there will only be more people under the capital officials in that place. Dream Chinese

Carefully calculate the time, they should also know the news that the third prince is going to come in person at this time. Although they don't necessarily attach much importance to it, with the identity of 'prince', they will not deliberately provoke Chu Ci without a long eye.

Of course, Chu Ci didn't expect at this time that there was really a 'thing that doesn't have long eyes' to hack him! What he has suffered for others, Chu Ci is destined to suffer this loss!

'Whoosh-'

At this moment, the candle flame in the house was violently extinguished by a strong wind brought by an arrow, and then the room was only dark, and a faint figure could be seen!

"Who!"

Seeing this, the guard immediately drew his saber, but the moment he made his move, the man directly grabbed a sword flower and picked the long sword in the guard's hand away, making a sound of contention!

In this way, the guards got a little closer to Chu Ci, firmly protected him behind him, and at the same time said loudly: "Someone! Come! There are assassins! ”

As soon as these words were spoken, the blade of the man's sword was already close to the guard's throat, but the guard reacted quickly, resisted with his scabbard, and pushed the man back and distanced himself from him.

"A useless prince like me can also be killed...... I think about it, I think about it......" Chu Ci was not afraid at all, "robbing money? ”

As soon as Chu Ci's voice fell, the man stepped forward again, and this time, the guard couldn't resist it, and let the long sword of the man in black slash through Chu Ci's arm!

All of a sudden, there was a fishy sweet smell in the air! This kind of smell also made the guards shocked, and they panicked and blocked the man's attack with their bodies! Finally, with a muffled snort, he received a sword in his back!

Following the moonlight, the guard caught a glimpse of his fallen sword, and immediately picked it up with his shield, and then kicked over the table and chair to block the man's attack and gain a few breaths.

Chu Ci, on the other hand, was escorted by the guards to a relatively safe corner in case he was injured again.

Seeing this, the man naturally gave up the guards and attacked Chu Ci, but who knew that the guards with the long sword in their hands were so difficult that this person was so weak that it was difficult to get close to Chu Ci!

'Bang-'

The sound of fighting in the room and the sound of swords finally made the people outside realize the seriousness of the situation, and the moment the guard's long sword pressed on the man's shoulder, the door was slammed open, and the light invaded the room, making the guard suddenly feel dazzling, giving the man a chance to escape!

"Stunned! Don't chase it yet! ”

Seeing this, the guard's face was extremely ugly, and when he saw that the man who had already fled through the window, he didn't care about anything else, so he only knelt down on one knee in front of Chu Ci and said, "My subordinates are not able to protect me, please punish Your Highness!" ”

"Master Zhang, where is the accompanying medical child?"

Chu Ci glanced at the guards and didn't say anything. He only looked at Zhang Ling, with some displeasure in his eyes, not fierce or serious, but it just made Zhang Ling's heart tremble!

"Back to Your Highness, the doctor will be here soon." Zhang Ling spoke respectfully, and found that Chu Ci's clothes were stained with blood in the faint light, and there seemed to be a huge piece, "Where is Your Highness injured?" ”

"Arms." Chu Ci opened his mouth lightly, unable to hear his joy or anger, "Take him down to deal with his injuries, and in addition, prepare pen, ink, paper, and inkstone!" This prince wants to repair a book, and he will show his father! ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Ling suddenly knelt on the ground, kowtowed respectfully, and then glanced at the soldier beside him, and then he was sincerely frightened, and said: "Weichen is not well protected, and the crime should be ten thousand deaths!" Sin deserves death! ”
