Chapter Ninety-Eight: Sleeping in a Hug
Jiang Mingzhi's eyes flowed, all of them were seen by Xiao Yuan, he didn't make a sound, but his figure with his back to Jiang Mingzhi was slightly thin.
"It's not too early, the main hall will send you back."
After a few hesitations, a small guy suddenly ran behind him and whispered something in Xiao Yuan's ear.
I saw that Xiao Yuan's face changed in an instant, and he arched his hand at Jiang Mingzhi, "Miss Jiang can take the risk to come today, and the palace is grateful, but at this moment, the palace still has important things to deal with, so I won't send Miss Jiang." ”
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Yuan hurriedly turned around and left, leaving one person to make a gesture of invitation to Jiang Mingzhi, and sent her all the way back to the outside of Zuo Xiang's mansion, and saw that she entered the courtyard safe and sound before going back to return to Xiao Yuan.
Pushing open the door, Jiang Mingzhi saw that the figure on the side of the bed still closed his eyes, and his heart fell.
Before Jiang Mingzhi could sit down, Hongyue opened her eyes leisurely, and the vague shadow in front of her was quickly recognized by her, and she sat up abruptly and grabbed Jiang Mingzhi's arm.
"Miss Jiang, are you okay?"
Hearing Hongyue's eagerness, Jiang Mingzhi's eyes flashed with guilt, but the matter had come to this, she could only pretend that nothing had happened.
"Of course I'm fine, but you, suddenly fainted, startling me."
Jiang Mingzhi pretended to open his mouth easily, and really saw Hongyue stunned in place.
After thinking about it, Hongyue's words also became confused, and when she got out of bed and saw that she was safe and sound, she had to retreat with a stomach full of questions.
Jiang Mingzhi was the only one left in the room, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
"I just don't know what's going on outside."
At this moment, outside the ruined temple in the suburbs outside the city, Pei Zheng had already led everyone to ambush here.
"My lord, the letter was sent out, and they didn't suspect it."
Chopping the wind fell in front of Pei Zheng and bowed down.
Pei Zheng waved his hand, and saw that the chopping wind fell behind him.
In the dark woods, there were only them here, all holding their breath, waiting for the Yan family to appear.
And in the prince's mansion, the news that made Xiao Yuan's face change was a reply.
After Xiao Yuan read the contents of the letter clearly, he really instantly understood what Jiang Mingzhi meant by the unspoken words.
In this ruined temple in the suburbs outside the city, once anyone from the Yan family appears, Pei Zheng will definitely use this as an excuse to make the Yan family make a big mistake!
Not to mention that according to what was said in this letter, he is the only one who is the most suitable to appear in the ruined temple this time.
If he hadn't known that this was a trap before, Xiao Yuan might really consider whether to go there in person.
But after Jiang Mingzhi's reminder, Xiao Yuan realized Pei Zheng's ruthlessness!
Xiao Yuan held the reply letter in his hand, and then snorted coldly, "Pei Zheng, this hall wants to see what you can catch with all your efforts!" ”
Since Xiao Yuan knew that it was a trap, it was impossible for him to appear again, but he would never let Pei Zheng's troubled arrangement fall short, and then called the guards outside the courtyard and whispered a few words in his ear.
After the guards withdrew, Xiao Yuan hooked the corners of his mouth and fell his gaze on the dark night sky.
Soon a carriage came out of the prince's mansion and went straight out of the city, towards the ruined temple outside the city.
It didn't take long for the prince's carriage to appear in front of everyone.
Seeing that it was really Xiao Yuan who came forward in person, the corners of Pei Zheng's mouth hooked slightly, but he didn't expect Xiao Yuan to be fooled so easily.
When the carriage came to the vicinity of the ruined temple, it slowed down.
In the shadows, many pairs of eyes were fixed on the scene in front of them, but Chop's eyes stopped at the coachman, and he frowned unconsciously.
It wasn't until the carriage got closer and closer that Chopping Wind was sure that there must be something wrong with the coachman, otherwise why would he look so nervous that he was trembling.
Before the wind could speak, the carriage had stopped, and everyone was ready to go.
After the carriage curtain was lifted, Qiyun led people to rush over, and Pei Zheng followed.
After a few people approached the carriage, they found that no one showed up in the carriage at all, they only thought that Xiao Yuan was afraid, but they didn't think about it at all, and now the carriage was actually empty.
Chopping Feng frowned, and followed Pei Zheng's side without dropping, his attention was still on the coachman.
Without waiting for Pei Zheng to open the carriage curtain, the coachman was suddenly shot by an arrow, and what was even more puzzling was that the arrow was actually carrying fire, and after killing the coachman, the arrow was fixed on the carriage.
The coachman's body quickly caught fire, and Pei Zheng also realized that something was wrong and immediately stopped.
Chopping the wind and clouds to protect Pei Zheng behind him, he came back to his senses and looked behind him, wondering who dared to be so bold!
But before everyone could react, there was a sound in their ears, and just when everyone was still looking for the source of the sound, Chopping Wind had already discovered that something was wrong.
"Carriage!"
As the words fell, Pei Zheng was pushed out.
It's a pity that it's too late, and before the tip of the sword touches the lead hidden under the carriage, there is no time.
Boom ——!
With a loud bang, the figures surrounding the carriage were all pushed out by an invisible wave of qi, especially when Chopping Wind wanted to get closer, and even the clothes on his body were torn.
Although Pei Zheng was far away, the wave of qi still hit him.
After the rumbling sound in the ears fell, everyone looked embarrassed, and there were horizontal figures lying on the ground, and many people were injured.
"Master, are you alright?"
After Qiyun came back to his senses, he immediately looked at Pei Zheng beside him.
Seeing that Pei Zheng was still safe and sound, he turned around and wanted to find the figure of Chopping Wind.
Pei Zheng's face was full of anger at the moment, but the most important thing at this moment was to deal with the situation in front of him first, so he could only forcibly suppress the anger in his heart.
Cutting Cloud looked at the mess in the place, and only felt resentful.
But before he could do more, a group of black-clothed people were killed around him, attacking Pei Zheng, and the clouds and wind hurriedly protected Pei Zheng, but the pace of these people did not stop, but seemed to be fighting with them to the end.
Chopping Wind was already injured because he was too close to the carriage, and now he was attacked by the man in black, and he had already fallen into the disadvantage.
At the critical moment, a sound of horses' hooves sounded, it was Jiang Mingzhi who came in a hurry, she didn't expect Xiao Yuan to suddenly make a move, and when she saw the situation here, she came to Pei Zheng's side desperately.
The man in black didn't pay attention to the sudden extra figure, but continued to aim the sword in his hand at Pei Zheng.
After a sword forced the slashing wind away, the sword blade rushed straight towards Pei Zheng.
I didn't want to, but I was blocked by Jiang Mingzhi.
Xiao Yuan and Pei Zheng, who came in a hurry, were stunned and looked at the scene in front of them, but Jiang Mingzhi smiled at Pei Zheng and said sorry to him silently, if it weren't for her, things would never have turned out like this.
Pei Zheng broke the neck of the man in black with a wave of his hand, Xiao Yuan also rushed over, but collided with Pei Zheng head-on, between the two of them, Xiao Yuan made a dead hand, but he didn't expect Pei Zheng to dodge or dodge, so he greeted him.
After the severe pain in his body came, Pei Zheng hugged Jiang Mingzhi's body tightly in his arms and lost his breath.
