Chapter 1266: Queen, Show Meal 42
The mountain road was rugged, and Zhan Beiran accelerated the speed of the horse.
Drops of cold rain fell, and the horse neighed and stopped among the bushes.
More than a dozen men in black were piled together and stacked high.
Zhan Beiran clenched the spirit sword and dismounted to check.
There are no signs on these people, and they are not dead. Now they are just decorations on the mountain trails without the ability to resist.
Zhan Beiran pulled off their clothes, and the traces on them were clean and neat, not caused by swords, but more like injuries from branches and stones.
There are so many experts on this mountain.
"Could it be... Linger?"
Zhan Beiran's slightly frowning brows relaxed, he looked at the traces around him, got on his horse, and ran after him.
On the other side, the emperor and the fourth prince walked together, and not long after the group left, they encountered an assassin.
"Protect the emperor!" The guards shouted, and the people in Chinese clothes among them were immediately escorted away, and some of the assassins were successfully led away.
On the top of the mountain, the emperor was wearing a simple coarse cloth, and he frowned and looked down.
"Be careful, Your Majesty, don't be discovered." Eunuch Bai followed him.
Only the fourth prince and the guards were fighting the assassins below. The real emperor had already changed his clothes and went to the top of the mountain with Eunuch Bai.
"The fourth is young but brave, and the future is limitless." The emperor had time to comment at this time.
Eunuch Bai just felt flustered. After this incident, he encountered two groups of assassins within a few days. With his current strength, it is no problem to protect the emperor, but if he encounters a large group of assassins, it is difficult to say.
"What are you doing here?" A young voice suddenly appeared behind him.
Eunuch Bai almost cried out in shock.
How could someone come to them without footsteps and breath.
The emperor was as startled as he was, and immediately turned his eyes, but his eyes were stagnant.
Huh, it's just a little girl.
Ling Qingxuan recognized Eunuch Bai at a glance. The person beside him... is the late emperor?
The little girl's thoughts at this time were surprisingly consistent with Zhan Beiran.
Can't let him become the prince and the emperor.
Ling Qingxuan said calmly, "Do you want to help?"
"What did you say, little girl, go home quickly and don't get involved in the affairs of adults." Eunuch Bai saw that she was well-dressed and small, and guessed that she was from this mountain.
What they are encountering now is an extremely vicious assassin, who is dedicated to assassinating the emperor. This little girl is weak and delicate, and it is easy to die here... ah.
Just as Eunuch Bai had this thought, he heard a voice that cut through the air.
When the sharp arrow shot by someone was only one centimeter away from the emperor's head, it was held by the little girl who suddenly flashed in front of them with one hand.
"Want to help?" Ling Qingxuan asked again.
The emperor saw some black marks on the arrow up close, and his pupils shrunk.
He unconsciously said, "...Yes."
The arrow just now was enough to take his life.
Just as he was talking, several more sharp arrows came, and Eunuch Bai said in surprise, "Your Majesty, be careful girl!"
Ling Qingxuan directly held the sharp arrow in her hand, spun it around, and wrapped up the arrows that were shot, then waved her hand and returned it to the person who just shot the arrow.
The muffled cry came, and Eunuch Bai wiped the sweat from his forehead.
This little girl is very talented.
After the ball, did he just call out the emperor?
The little girl squatted down and said: "I heard the emperor's words, Jinkou Yuyan, I saved your life, how to repay me?"
Even if Ling Qingxuan didn't say it, the emperor would repay her after escaping this time.
Facing this little girl, the emperor did not feel that she was disrespectful. On the contrary, he felt that she was very smart and outstanding, so he raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you want?"
"I want someone." The little girl said bluntly.
Eunuch Bai was stunned for a moment, "You, you little girl, don't you want to enter the harem?"
Aya Qingxuan: …
Don't think too much.
"I want the third prince, Zhan Beiran." Ling Qingxuan said lightly, playing with the poisoned arrow in his hand, "If I don't agree, my hand will be unstable."
Eunuch Bai: ... This is definitely a blatant threat, she actually threatens the current saint!
Unexpectedly, the emperor smiled, "Little girl, you still want to enter the harem. To tell you the truth, I am going to make the third prince the crown prince..."
Poison arrows approaching a point.
Emperor:……
"The third prince can't do it, he can't be the prince."
"Why do you say that?"
Ling Qingxuan's tone increased, "I said, he can't."
[...Host, you slandered the villain outside again. 】How can you often talk about the things that your man can't do.
He's still young, what can he do.
It has to be okay.
[...] You are right.
Eunuch Bai was busy giving the emperor a wink, but he couldn't do it, that kind of thing wouldn't work.
The emperor's face turned pale. Among his princes, the third prince was the most important. Unexpectedly, he committed the most taboo thing.
"How, how do you know?" The emperor was still in disbelief.
There were screams from the guards at the foot of the mountain. Although Ling Qingxuan killed a lot of assassins with his backhand, the assassins who had been led away had all returned now.
The emperor looked down, and the assassins were approaching the fourth prince.
"Emperor!"
Following this steady cry, the sound of horse hooves was heard not far away.
Zhan Beiran got up and stepped on the horse, exerting force on his left foot, holding a spirit sword in his hand, and flew towards the pile of assassins.
"Brother Emperor!" The Fourth Prince saw him and waved his sword excitedly.
"The person I want is here." Ling Qingxuan looked down and said to the emperor, "I'll go get it myself."
Before the emperor and Eunuch Bai could react, the little girl jumped down from the top of the mountain.
The spirit sword was sensed and trembled in Zhan Beiran's hand.
He raised his head suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he stretched out his hands.
The petite girl fell into his arms unscathed, even though she came down from such a high place, she didn't bring any impact.
The fourth prince was stunned, why did a little girl fall from the sky?
"Ling'er!" Zhan Beiran was wrapped in a moment of surprise, and the two finally met.
Ling Qingxuan reached out and pinched his face, "Get rid of them first."
"Um!"
With Ling Qingxuan by his side, Zhan Beiran's momentum was even stronger.
Ling Qingxuan touched his back and was about to take out the sickle, but he couldn't find it.
【Host, what happened? 】
I don't know where the sickle given by her father went.
[It won't fall on the top of the mountain, right? 】
On the top of the mountain, the emperor and Eunuch Bai looked at the battle situation below and sighed again and again.
"Beiran is indeed the most suitable person to be a prince."
"emperor……"
"Hey, but he, why can't he do it? I will definitely seek out famous doctors to treat him."
The emperor was sighing, and the eldest prince came towards them both.
"Father! My son is too late to rescue him!"
With one more person to protect him, the emperor felt more at ease, but the situation in front of him surprised him to the point of being speechless.
The eldest prince sat on the horse, his eyes were cloudy, and he pulled out an arrow from behind.
