Chapter 52 Protect the Princess

"Ms.'s mask."

Jin Yunzhi took over the rabbit face mask and felt a joy in his heart.

Her voice was clear, "Thank you, Ah Jiu."

After saying that, she held her mask and walked forward.

After buying some candied fruits, sesame seed cakes and two bottles of plum wine, the group got into the carriage and prepared to leave the city.

As soon as the carriage walked five miles outside the city, Xie Jiuyu was keenly aware of something strange.

He looked at Jin Yunzhi's sleepy little head, his eyes met Qingbi's worried eyes, he opened his lips and whispered, "Protect the princess."

As soon as he finished speaking, he opened the curtain of the carriage and jumped onto the top of the carriage.

The sound of rustling in the woods was lost in the sound of wind, but Xie Jiuyu had been fighting to the death on the battlefield for several years, and such an ambush was just a drop in the bucket to him.

He rested his body lazily and casually on his elbows, holding the sword in his arms, his eyes unfocused.

The sounds in the woods were getting closer and closer, and there was even a sign that the bow and arrows were full.

Xie Jiuyu's eyes darkened.

Only half a day after leaving the city, someone was so uncontrollable that he came to assassinate the princess.

There was a sneer on his lips.

The wheels of the carriage grinded against the ground, making a sound.

Suddenly.

A whistle sounded in the forest.

Countless arrows rained towards Jin Yunzhi's carriage.

The secret guards hiding in the dark immediately rushed forward and knocked down all the arrows in the air.

Immediately, following the direction in which the arrow was shot, it approached quietly.

The horrifying sounds of blood splattering kept coming from the forest.

But Jin Yunzhi in the carriage had no idea that along the way, she kept talking and eating so sleepily that she couldn't bear it anymore, so she lay down on Qingbi's lap and fell asleep.

Qingbi listened to the subtle sounds of fighting outside and tightened her breathing, worrying about the princess' safety.The secret guards quietly killed most of the attackers. The leader Yin Yin couldn't help but jumped up from the forest and attacked Xie Jiuyu on the top of the carriage!

The tip of the sword, glowing with cold light, approached Xie Jiuyu's neck.

Those cold eyes stared at him.

Just when the tip of the sword was about to touch the skin of Xie Jiuyu's neck, the man who was lying lazily on the roof of the carriage suddenly rose into the air.

His eyes darkened, and he didn't even pull out the sword in his hand. The scabbard was pressed against his chest.

Hit hard.

The man in black in the air fell straight down.

After landing, he spit out a mouthful of blood.

He looked at the blood on the ground in shock. With just one move, he actually hurt his vital part.

Who is this man?

Is there anyone in the palace who can reach out so powerfully?
Just as he was stunned, Xie Jiuyu, who was on top of the carriage, dropped his sword from its scabbard, and the tip of the sword pierced the man's calf.

He groaned in pain and turned pale instantly.

After the sword stabbed his calf, Xie Jiuyu fell from the top of the carriage, pulled out his long sword, and picked off the black cloth on the man's face.

The appearance was completely etched into his eyes. Xie Jiuyu clenched the sword in his hand and turned to leave.

But at the moment he left, the long sword in his hand suddenly stabbed horizontally, piercing the man's chest.

The wind picked up his black hair, flying in the air, lingering and dancing.

The man groaned lowly and fell to the ground.

Xie Jiuyu retracted his sword, caught the black cloth that had just been thrown away, and gently wiped off the blood on the sword.

After doing this, he quietly returned to the carriage, without even a trace of the smell of blood on his body.

Jin Yunzhi was awakened by the jolting of horse hooves. She opened her eyes blankly and saw Xie Jiuyu coming in from outside the carriage. She raised her eyes and said, "Ajiu, why did you go outside?"
