Chapter 289: I am late to rescue you!
"Not to mention that her figure is pretty good. It makes me horny."
Everyone was talking at the same time, and no one present was deaf, so how could they not hear it?
Especially Ji Ruxue, the wolf-like, sticky and evil gazes around her were disgusting as if they wanted to strip her naked.
Ji Ruxue's face turned pale instantly, she shrank back tremblingly, and pulled her clothes closer.
The strange looks from all around and Ji Lening's arrogant attitude made Ji Ruxue's whole body shake. Finally, she couldn't bear the blow, her eyes went dark, and she fainted.
Seeing Ji Ruxue faint, Xiahou Zhen was shocked: "Third Prince!"
Ji Lening sneered: "Bah, why are you pretending!"
"Don't think I'll just ignore it just because you fainted!"
Seeing Xiahou Zhen pick up Ji Ruxue, Ji Lening's eyes widened: "What are you doing?"
Xiahou Zhen hugged Ji Ruxue and glared at Ji Lening with cold eyes: "Get out of the way!"
Ji Lening raised his head arrogantly: "I won't let you!"
Xiahou Zhen didn't want to argue with him, so he held Ji Ruxue and pushed Ji Lening aside and walked forward.
"Ouch~"
Ji Lening felt a pain in his shoulder from the collision and he fell to the ground unsteadily. His arm rubbed against the ground and he turned pale in pain.
Seeing this, Qinghe panicked and went to help: "Your Highness, are you okay?"
Ji Lening was so angry that he waved Qinghe away and looked at Xiahou Zhen's departing back, yelling like a madman.
"Xiahou Zhen! How dare you do this to me!"
"I'm going to tell the Queen Mother! I'm going to punish you!"
"You two bastards, I won't let you go!"
Qinghe helped Ji Lening up and said with concern: "Don't be angry, Your Highness. You might get angry and hurt yourself."
Ji Lening brushed Qinghe away, her angry eyes filled with viciousness, and she swung her long sleeves: "Return to the palace!"
Qinghe didn't dare to offend His Highness at this juncture, and lowered his head and replied: "Yes." The show on the bridge was over, and the assassination here was also coming to an end with the help of Di Ran who ordered Di Yi and Shisan to join.
A group of soldiers came running in an orderly manner from the street and surrounded the bank of West Lake.
Leading the group was a female official in a red robe, wiping the sweat from her forehead and running over in a panic.
"Your humble servant Xue Fei pays respect to His Royal Highness Prince Rui, Prince Beichen. I am late in coming to your rescue. I hope Your Highness will forgive me!"
The person who came was Xue Fei, the Jingzhao Yin who was in charge of the capital. She was lucky enough to save her life and the black sand on her head because of the mistaken arrest of the envoy last time.
Before she could have a few days of peace, she heard that Prince Rui and Prince Beichen had been assassinated. She was so scared that she quickly sent people to rescue them.
There was an assassin committing crimes blatantly under the emperor's feet. He simply didn't take her seriously!
If anything happens to the two princes, she would not be able to chop off enough heads even if she had ten!
Ji Huashang's clothes were stained with blood, the soft sword in her hand was still dripping with blood, and there were cuts on her arms and shoulders, and blood was visible.
Although his face was pale, he remained calm and composed: "Master Xue, there is an assassin under the emperor's feet. If it was not me but His Majesty, your head would be in danger."
Xue Fei bowed his head, terrified: "I admit my guilt!"
Ji Huashang's face darkened slightly. "Alright, I will report the matter of the assassins to my mother. You carry the bodies of the assassins back and make sure to find out the origins of these assassins."
Xue Fei hurriedly responded: "I obey your command!"
Ji Huashang immediately turned around and walked towards Di Ran and others on the side. Gratitude appeared on his pale face and he raised his hand lightly.
"Thank you, King Beichen, for your help. Otherwise, Hua Shang would have lost her life here."
She brought few people with her on this trip, and the assassin's moves were strange. Although she had martial arts skills, she could not defeat several people alone.
If it weren't for the help from King Beichen's men, her injuries would probably be even more serious.
However, she was also surprised that the guards around King Beichen had such superb martial arts, especially the woman in black. If she were to fight with her, she might not have a chance of winning.
There are indeed many hidden dragons and crouching tigers around King Beichen...
A strange dark light flashed across Ji Huashang's eyes.
