Chapter 16 I will be loyal to Her Royal Highness

Night falls, and the lights come on. The country has changed hands, and it has just ushered in a change of dynasty.

"Stop! Hold it! "A few or two strong men chased a little boy in the street.

The boy who was being chased looked panicked, wearing tattered clothes and a broken chain tied to his foot. When it runs, it rings.

The strong man panted and slowed down: "Damn, this little cub can really run." I've chased eight streets! ”

Another strong man also stopped and held on to the wall and gasped: "When I get back, I will break his dog's leg!" ”

"I said, let's stop chasing. This year the slaves have. ”

"Alas, it is also said that this temper will not sell for a good price. It's a pity that he has such a handsome face. ”

The country has changed hands, and it has just ushered in a change of dynasty. Overnight, there were many more officials and nobles, and many people were down.

The slave market was filled with a wide variety of goods.

The boy also fell here from nowhere, but his temperament is very strong.

The two strong men turned around and walked back, and within two steps they ran into a group of officers and soldiers coming across them. They all ran towards them with their weapons in hand.

"Good people, good people. The officers and soldiers spared their lives. ”

The officer and soldier who took the lead pointed his sword at him and said sharply: "I didn't see a masked man in black tying up a little girl and going over there." ”

The strong man shook his head violently: "No, we just ran away and chased the slaves all the way and didn't see any masked men in black, let alone little girls." ”

The officers and soldiers who took the lead said they knew and led the men and horses away.

At the same time, the governor's government was brightly lit.

A man in an official robe was anxiously circling at the door, "I can't find the princess, you all have to be buried together!" ”

The young Jiang Zhihe stood aside tremblingly: "I have mobilized the soldiers and horses in the city to look for it everywhere, my lord, can you sit down and rest for a while?" ”

"Rest of bullshit, tell me what kind of security is in your Huaizhou City?" The man in the official robe waved his sleeves and said angrily.

Princess Yu is the most favored concubine of the newly enthroned emperor.

The body is not good and sent to Huaizhou to raise for a period of time, who knows that when he visited a temple fair, he was robbed by thieves, and if he can't find it, he will definitely provoke the wrath of the saint.

When the time comes, everyone here may all have their heads on the ground.

***

On the eaves, the black-clothed man with a masked face held the bright and moving little girl in one hand and confronted the guards opposite.

"Let go of her, I can satisfy you with whatever you want!" The guards sword to the man in black did not dare to shoot easily.

The man in black said: "Someone bought her life and let me take her back alive." I'm going to get the job done. ”

"How much money did that guy pay? I'm out tenfold. ”

"It's not about money!"

The guard said: "It's either money or power, and I'll double what that person gives you." ”

"Sure enough, it's not small, but it's a pity that I won't fight back."

The guard said anxiously: "Pay attention to the strength of your men, didn't that person let you capture you alive?" There's nothing you can do if you accidentally kill you. ”

The man in black suddenly noticed that the little girl in his hand did not move. Immediately look down.

In an instant, the little girl's elbow slammed into the indescribable part of the man in black, and the man in black let out a painful cry.

At this moment, the guard hurriedly raised his sword to stab, and the man in black raised his hand to block it.

The little girl broke free from her confinement and gasped for air. The sound of the weapons handing over rattled as the man in black reached out to get the girl back.

The girl ducked backwards, slipped and fell under the eaves. Fear jumped from the heart to the limbs.

The guard leaped over and grabbed the little girl's arm, and the girl was dangling from the eaves.

The man in black stabbed at the guard, who dragged the girl back and rolled her down with her, falling steadily to the ground.

In the next moment, several darts were fired at the girl, and the guard waved his hand to shoot down one of the darts, and the rest were blocked with his body.

The man in black jumped down the eaves after him, intertwined with the guards.

The girl took the opportunity to run towards the alley, the sound of the fight getting farther and farther away, and the footsteps running in the quiet alley became louder and louder.

The dark alley frightened the girl, and suddenly she heard a noise around her.

The girl immediately stopped, holding her breath.

The sound of paper falling in the quiet alley can be clearly seen, and the frightening thing is that there is a breathing sound in the air.

The girl turned her head slowly, and there was a dark shadow three paces away, and then the two pupils of the moonlight shone with a deep light.

The fear was already in my throat.

A small milk voice slowly sounded: "Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person." ”

The little boy crouching in the corner noticed her fear and couldn't help but speak up.

When the girl heard this, her heart instantly returned to its original place. Whispered, "Who are you?" Why here. ”

The boy stopped talking, but did not speak again.

Hurried footsteps sounded again, and someone came.

The surroundings gradually lit up, and several officers and soldiers trotted to the girl's side with torches and knelt down in unison, "Your Royal Highness the princess, forgive your sins, it's too late to be humble." ”

The torch illuminated the girl's face, and the delicate and fair skin left a few black marks due to the bump just now.

The round eyes were full of horror.

The leading guard looked around at the girl, and after confirming that she was not injured, he said, "Escort the princess back." ”

The girl stood still, looking at the boy sitting in the corner without blinking, by the light from the torches around her.

He was covered in dirt, and only two eyes radiated a different kind of brilliance. looked at the girl expressionlessly, ignoring the officers and soldiers who knelt on the ground.

"Huh—" The girl turned sideways and drew the sword in the lead guard's hand.

Everyone trembled and hurriedly knocked their heads to the ground, "The princess spares her life." ”

The girl raised her hand and swung her sword to cut the chains on the boy's feet, and the group took a closer look at the boy in the corner.

The boy didn't blink an eye when the sword swung over.

After the girl finished doing this, she turned her head and said, "Get up and escort this princess back." ”

The girl was the first to walk in front.

The group walked out of the alley, and a luxurious carriage was parked outside.

The girl was about to go up when she stopped and looked back at the boy who had been following behind. "Come, give him a reward of silver."

The leading guard took out a bag of silver and stuffed it into the boy's hand: "Child, don't follow anymore, take it and leave." ”

The boy said loudly in a sweet little milk voice, "Can you take me with you?" I can work, I can do a lot of things, I ......"

Before the boy could finish speaking, the guard interrupted, "Hurry up, hurry up, if you don't leave, I'll chase you." ”

"Wait." The girl stopped the guard.

The two children are not much different in size and look at each other at eye level. "Do you really want to do something for me?"

"Yes, I will be loyal to Her Royal Highness."

***

On the cliffs, fresh blood stains the soil reddish-brown. The corpses on the ground symbolize the fierce struggle that has just taken place here.

The man in black looked down. It is bottomless, and once it falls, it will be shattered.

"Stupid! Will the master forget it alive? A man in black drank.

A masked man in black showed eyes that were flushed with red. "I fell in a hurry, if we don't do this, our brothers will all die! You also saw how fierce Shen Yanxi was. ”

"That's it, they all go to the bottom of the cliff to search, and they want to see people alive and dead to see corpses."

"Yes."

The countless black-clothed people in the forest dispersed, and a fire burst out on the edge of the cliff. The corpses on the ground were piled up and burning.

The fire was destroying corpses in the clearing.

Under the cliff, a large net caught two people.

It was Jiang Yu and Shen Yanxi.

Shen Yanxi's arms wrapped around Jiang Yu and wrapped her tightly in his arms.

Jiang Yu closed her eyes tightly and the expected feeling did not come, the strength of her hugging did not decrease at all, and their downward trend came to an abrupt end.

She opened her eyes and looked around, and among the crooked trees in the cliff hung a large net made of thick linen rope.

"You've got it?" Jiang Yu tried to get her voice back.

With the words came the loosening of the net, and the bodies of the two sank downward.

The net could obviously only bear the weight of a single person, and now it was barely holding them back. If they move at will, they will break if they don't control their strength well.

Shen Yanxi said: "It's not me. ”

"It's not me, either." Jiang Yu was surprised in her heart, such a coincidence, they fell from here, and there happened to be a net under them that dragged them.

"There's a hole there." Shen Yanxi said, "Let's find a way to get in." ”

Jiang Yu also saw that there was a hole next to the trees growing in the cliff.

But every movement they make now carries the risk that the rope will not be able to hold up and fall again.

Shen Yanxi easily opened Jiang Yu's strength and said, "Your weight is light, move over first." ”

The fluctuation of power together is too great, and it can only pass one by one.

But the greater the risk for those who move behind obviously, not only to test the strength of the rope, but also to consider whether the person who passes first will cross the river and tear down the bridge.

Jiang Yu met Shen Yanxi's eyes, and the latter said: "Don't hesitate, the rope won't be able to hold up after a long time, this is the best plan at the moment." ”

She no longer hesitated to move slowly, but fortunately the rope was strong enough, and when she reached the hole, she saw that there was an iron hook buried in the cliff wall at one end of the rope net.

It was impossible to tell how deep and long the hook was, and the rain-washed and rust marks showed signs of having been used before.

After Jiang Yu arrived safely in the cave, Shen Yanxi did not hesitate for a moment to grab the rope net and jump into the cave.

The two of them carefully looked at the scene in the cave, which was deep and dark, and it was impossible to judge the situation of the tunnel because the light could not enter.

Inside there is a stone table with a thin layer of earth on top.

"There are traces of burning on the ground," Jiang Yu said, "Someone came here not long ago, and the net outside is likely to have been laid by this person." ”

Shen Yanxi answered, and was burying his head in the stones on the ground to hit the iron hook of the rope net.

"Put the net away, those people will definitely search the bottom of the cliff."

In order to prevent anyone from looking up at the bottom of the cliff, the net was destroyed first.

Looking at Shen Yanxi, who was struggling to hit, Jiang Yu said, "Your sword has fallen." ”

Generally, people who practice martial arts have their own swords, and swords generally have different meanings.

Although it was the first time she had seen Shen Yanxi's sword, it was not ordinary judging from the shadow of the sword that had just been wielded.

Shen Yanxi understood what she meant, not because he was missing a weapon in his hand now, but because he cared about what that sword meant to him.

"I'll send someone to find it when I get out."
