Chapter 174: Wait for the Rabbit

"Your Highness."

said that it was too late, and seeing that several guards in front of the carriage fell to the ground, and a sharp arrow was about to be inserted into Zhu Zhiye's back, Wu Muning did not hesitate to block it with his body.

"Miss Wu."

Hua Rujin was shocked for a while, and looked in the direction of the dark arrow, pulled out the dagger for self-defense, and flew away.

Seeing this, Ye Chengwei also drew his sword from the carriage and followed, looked at an assassin behind the eaves, and threw the sword in his hand fiercely.

The Assassins in the shadows were very cunning, and when they saw that the momentum was not right, they hurriedly fled.

Ye Chengwei and Hua Rujin chased after him, only to catch an assassin who had already been killed, and they were worried that something would happen to Wu Muning and King Ning, so they had to quickly turn back.

"Quickly go to the Yamen of the Inspectorate and mobilize manpower to protect the safety of His Highness."

Ye Chengwei's heart tightened, and while instructing Ting An to gather people, he bent down to inspect the injuries of several people.

"Who is so bold to assassinate at the entrance of the government."

Hua Rujin was careful to look around, there was no trace of the assassin, and it didn't look like she was coming for King Ning.

First, this is an inner city, with many government offices at all levels; Besides, there are not many people coming, and it is simply different from the last time.

If you want to assassinate a prince in the inner city, the power you use is definitely not something that such a person can do.

She and Ye Chengwei glanced at each other, thinking of what the old man hadn't finished saying just now, and looked at the old man lying on the ground.

"Wu Garlic, how are you?"

Zhu Zhiye's voice came, Hua Rujin immediately retracted her thoughts, picked up a lantern from the carriage, and looked closely, only to see Wu Muning with a sharp arrow stuck obliquely in her shoulder, and her face was already pale in pain.

"I'm fine, Your Highness don't worry."

Wu Muning endured the pain and glanced at the old man next to her, and asked, "How is the old man?" ”

Zhu Zhiye looked back and saw that the old man's eyes were closed.

He tried to probe his nose, but he was already out of breath, and was about to open his mouth to answer, but Hua Rujin bent down and went straight to protect the old man, and said loudly: "The old man is fine, Miss Wu doesn't have to worry." ”

When the words fell, he immediately ordered Ye Chengwei and Zhu Zhiye to help him carry the old man into the carriage first.

Then he went to help Wu Muning, lowered his voice and admonished: "These assassins must be coming for the old man, I am afraid that the old man is hiding some secrets, and the news of his death must not be spread, Lord Ye quickly take someone to the east of the city to investigate, and I will send His Royal Highness and Miss Wu back to the post house." ”

Ye Chengwei was still hesitating, and saw Ting An leading dozens of people out of the mansion.

"There is still some distance from the post house here, you take Your Highness and Miss Wu to the Inspectorate Mansion first, what is there to send Ting'an to do."

After Ye Chengwei explained everything to Ting'an, he led the men and horses out of the city in a hurry.

Hua Rujin was also afraid that he would be too worried, so he had to ask Ting An to point out a few cronies, help Wu Muning together, and carry the old man's body into the Imperial Mission's Mansion.

The rest stayed behind to clean up the bodies of the guards and search for the Assassins nearby.

Seeing that Wu Muning was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, Ting An took a few people to the inner room of the son, and hurriedly said, "Your Highness and the two young ladies will wait later, and I will go to ask for a medical officer." ”

"No, you can't call a medical officer."

Hua Rujin glanced at the old man's corpse and ordered, "Just go and prepare some medicine." ”

Then he roughly checked Wu Muning's injuries, and first comforted King Ning: "Your Highness, don't worry, Miss Wu didn't hurt the vital point, but just scratched the flesh and skin, I can just pull out the arrow, but this old man, I'm afraid that Lord Ye may not be able to find out anything here, only to wronged the old man for a few days, I think if the assassin learns that the old man is still alive in the world, he will make a comeback, we might as well wait for the rabbit." ”

Zhu Zhiye nodded hesitantly, seeing that she was unscathed, he was glad that he couldn't help but reproach Wu Muning: "Wu Garlic, why are you so stupid, how dangerous is it, if you have a good one, how should I explain to Ah Yue and your parents?" ”

"I'm blessed with a great life, who can hurt me."

Wu Muning pretended to smile lightly.

Thinking back to Fang Cai's situation, Ye Chengwei protected himself for the first time, and Hua Rujin's heart suddenly warmed.

It's just that Wu Muning, a stupid woman, didn't think about saving her life, but stood up for King Ning, but this friendship is rare.

"Okay, Your Highness, you go out first, I'll pull out the arrow for Miss Wu and put some medicine on it."

Seeing that Ting An had taken the medicine, Hua Rujin urged Zhu Zhiye to leave together, and then helped Wu Muning cut off the clothes around the arrow feather, and carefully pulled out the arrow.

"Fortunately, it's just an ordinary feather arrow, otherwise I'm afraid it will be uncomfortable for you."

Hua Rujin smeared the wound medicine for her and bandaged the wound, and instructed: "But you still have to be extra careful recently, don't use force on this arm." ”

"Those assassins don't look as tough as they did last time, but I don't understand why they're chasing an old man?"

Wu Muning rested for a while, his whole spirit was much better, leaned on the soft collapse, and began to suspect randomly.

"No, shopkeeper Hua, are you lying to me, I was hit by an arrow, how could I not be seriously injured?"

Thinking of this, she no longer had the heart to care why the assassin wanted to hunt down the old man, and begged wistfully: "You go to the doctor quickly, and say that I am about to die." ”

Hua Rujin couldn't see her careful thoughts, but she just wanted King Ning to take care of her more, and replied with a wry smile: "Why should Miss Wu be like this, some things are good to go naturally, otherwise it will be self-defeating and will suffer from it." ”

After thinking about it, she simply said bluntly: "I know that you have a deep friendship with His Highness, but after all, he has grown up in the palace since he was a child, and I am afraid that he is still a little wooden about his love for his children, and he doesn't know what he wants. ”

"You're not afraid that I will snatch Your Highness from you?"

Wu Muning asked with a big grin.

"Where did Miss Wu start, I have nothing to do with His Royal Highness, and I can't do anything else, but I still have some self-knowledge, Your Highness is the prince, I am a country girl, how can I not understand the truth of being the right person."

Hua Rujin replied solemnly.

"Do you really think you're just a country girl?"

Wu Muning smiled evilly at her: "When I was in Jiangling City, I heard some rumors, saying that you have some relationship with Governor Luo, he is a first-class military marquis of the dynasty, and he is in a high position, you have to be careful, this person is romantic, if he wants you, I am afraid that no one will be able to stop him." ”

thought that she would guess her relationship with Luo Chuhuai, but her later reminder made Hua Rujin cry and laugh.

"Don't worry about me, how can a person like me get into the eyes of Governor Luo."

Hua Rujin didn't want to mention the relationship between the two, and said with a light smile: "You can take care of your injuries, Your Highness is not a ruthless person, don't think nonsense." ”

"Well, listen to you."

Wu Muning smiled, although she still felt a little aggrieved in her heart, but the shopkeeper did not have His Royal Highness in her heart, which made her feel a lot more relieved.

And if his affection for His Royal Highness's childhood sweetheart really lost to a woman who met in Pingshui, it means that she was just wishful thinking from beginning to end, and there is nothing to regret.
