Due to the sudden arrival of the eighth prince Gu Ye and Princess Caifeng, Ning Xiaoqian and Ning Xiaokun suddenly felt uncomfortable, although they had to accompany Gu Luan back to the greenhouse, they no longer had the interest to continue playing.

Seeing Ouyang Qinxin, who walked in after making tea for the Eighth Prince and Wu Zheng, said a few words, Ning Xiaoqian said to Princess Caifeng:

"Truth be told, we had already said that we were going back to the house for lunch, so we had to leave. ”

Ning Xiaoqian, who knew that Princess Caifeng didn't want to reveal her identity, and it was really hard to call the other party's "sister", simply didn't call her anything.

How could Princess Caifeng not know the reason why the sisters left in a hurry, so she didn't say anything to stay.

"Sister Qinxin, I'm sorry for today. If you have time to enter the city another day, please go to the mansion and sit down. ”

After saying goodbye to Ouyang Qinxin again, when the sisters turned around and came to the courtyard, they happened to see Wu Zheng also opening the door and walking out.

Ning Xiaoqian and Ning Xiaokun left, and Ouyang Qinxin, as the master, couldn't help but send it out. Naturally, Gu Luan, who had basically understood what was going on with this greenhouse, also followed.

"Let's go back, we say we want to go back to the house for lunch, and if we don't leave, it's too late. ”

Worried that Wu Zheng didn't know what to do, Ning Xiaoqian hurriedly opened her mouth to explain.

Since the arrival of the Eighth Prince Gu Ye, Ning Xiaokun almost didn't say a word. At this time, he turned around and walked towards the fence gate, came to his carriage, raised his foot into the carriage, and pulled down the curtain.

Because he was unwilling to endure the restraint of being with the Eighth Prince, Wu Zheng also happened to come out after saying goodbye to the Eighth Prince under the pretext that he wanted to go back to the house for lunch. Hearing Ning Xiaoqian say this, she turned around again and arched her hand to the eighth prince in the room, walked to the courtyard again, and said goodbye to Princess Caifeng, who was looking at him.

When Ouyang Qinxin bowed his knees to Wu Zheng, Wu Zheng bowed his hand again and said with a smile:

"Miss Ouyang, go back. ”

There is no need to look back, Wu Zheng can also feel that after his party walked a certain distance, Princess Caifeng, accompanied by Ouyang Qinxin, was still standing in the fence gate and looking here.

Wu Zheng didn't know what kind of mood he was in at this time, he rode a horse and walked silently in front, and when he soon came to the stream at the foot of the mountain where Woyun Temple was located, he suddenly pulled the reins and stopped.

"The two sisters should go back first, I want to go to Woyun Temple to have a look. ”

The sisters, who knew Wu Zheng's experience, were not surprised by this, but just told "don't go back too late", and went back to the city in a carriage first. Standing in place, watching the carriage drift away, Wu Zheng knew in his heart that if he hadn't been disturbed by the sudden appearance of the Eighth Prince, Ning Xiaokun would definitely not be so obedient.

It wasn't until he could no longer see the shadow of the carriage that Wu Zheng turned over and dismounted, led the horses along the steps up the mountain, and walked step by step towards the Woyun Temple halfway up the mountain.

The reason why Wu Zheng wanted to stay was, of course, not that he really wanted to go to Woyun Temple. If Master Xingyun of the Western Regions Huatou Tuo was still there, maybe he would go to pay a visit, but Master Xingyun had already passed away for more than two years. Therefore, when Wu Zheng came to the mountain gate of Woyun Temple, he did not enter the temple at all, but just tied the horses to the tethered horse stakes in front of the temple gate, said hello to the deacon monks, and bypassed Woyun Temple and directly climbed to the top of the mountain where Woyun Temple is located.

To put it bluntly, Wu Zheng was worried about Princess Caifeng's safety. After experiencing two attacks in Linshan Mansion and Sihui County, Wu Zheng can be sure that those people will never give up. Even if he guessed that it was the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and looking at Princess Caifeng and the Eighth Prince's outfits, it was unlikely that they would be detected by the other party, but Wu Zheng still felt unsure.

At the same time, Wu Zheng was not sure about the sudden appearance of Ouyang Qinxin's warm shed. There are so many flat and sunny places on the outskirts of the capital, why did they choose to be in such a remote and hidden valley as Xishan? Moreover, why are only Ouyang Qinxin and the so-called Uncle Jiang here? Even if someone goes into the city to deliver food, it is only two or three people at most, aren't they afraid that the scoundrels in the vicinity will come to find trouble? You must know that the vegetables grown in this greenhouse are very precious in this midwinter season.

Find a big tree, sit cross-legged against the trunk, analyze it in your head, and keep your eyes fixed on the fenced courtyard behind the mountain, on the north bank of the stream.

Seeing that the Eighth Prince and Princess Caifeng came out of the greenhouse again under the guidance of Ouyang Qinxin, stood in the courtyard and said a few words, they walked towards the courtyard gate, and it seemed that they were also leaving.

Wu Zheng couldn't help laughing at himself in his heart: How did he become so suspicious?

did not rush down the mountain, but sat on the top of the mountain, watching Princess Caifeng's carriage drive all the way out of the valley, and when it had come to the fork in the stream at the foot of Woyun Temple, Wu Zheng stood up.

It didn't matter if he stood up, and suddenly found that he was galloping from the direction of the road out of Beijing, and more than a dozen horses were riding. As the dozen horsemen approached, it was already clear that the people on horseback were all men in strong suits, and they were all armed with weapons.

Wu Zheng said secretly, raised his feet and rushed down the mountain.

When he came to the stone platform in front of the gate of Woyun Temple, he saw that the eighth prince was running towards the mountain with Princess Caifeng. And the four guards brought behind him only blocked the comer's time for less than four or five breaths, and they fell to the ground and died.

"Quick, come here. ”

Wu Zheng reminded the two of them and greeted them.

Because the road to Woyun Temple is all steps carved out of the rock, which is not suitable for horseback riding, so the dozen or so riders who chased after it have also dismounted and walked. Presumably, the reason why the eighth prince chose to lead Princess Caifeng to flee here was also to take this into account, and in addition, he should also hope that the monks in Woyun Temple would be able to kill them.

Hearing Wu Zheng's shout, the Eighth Prince and Princess Caifeng looked up at the same time, and couldn't help but lift their spirits. Especially Princess Caifeng, when she saw Wu Zheng running towards her, she suddenly had the strength under her feet that she didn't know where to come from, and she actually kicked two or three steps and ran in front of Gu Ye.

"Princess, princess, keep going. My horses are in front of the temple gate, you first ride down the mountain from the southwest of Woyun Temple and go back to the capital, and I will stop them. ”

Looking at Princess Caifeng's appearance, she seemed to be a little hesitant, but the Eighth Prince, who was rushed over, stretched out his hand and pulled him, so he had to follow and continue to climb up the mountain.

"Childe, take care. ”

I didn't have time to answer Princess Caifeng, because the other party had already caught up, and some of them had an extra crossbow in their hands.

Martial arts people are generally reluctant to go against the army, not because they are afraid of a large number of people, but because they are afraid of long-range attack weapons such as crossbow arrows in the hands of soldiers. No matter how high your cultivation is, if you are surrounded by archers in the inner and outer three layers, then there is only one fate waiting for you - after consuming all your physical strength, you will be pierced by ten thousand arrows.
