Xia Luotong subconsciously wanted to use her body skills to adjust her body shape, but the opponent's movements were a little faster than hers. Almost before she could react, the opponent had already stretched out his arm to pull her back. into his arms.
Although he was saved from falling, Xia Luotong froze and realized that he was being held in someone's arms.
Before she could raise her hand to push him away, the other person had already released his hand, took half a step back, and said, "It's me."
Xia Luotong was slightly startled. He felt that the voice seemed familiar. It should be someone he had met recently, and the voice sounded like a very young man.
Xia Luotong immediately looked up, and then whispered in surprise: "A Yan?! Why are you here?"
The person who bumped into Xia Luotong was Wu Fengyan, the current Ninth Prince, who had met once in the palace during the New Year's Eve palace banquet.
Xia Luotong didn't expect to meet Wu Fengyan here. He could actually come out of the palace to play during the Lantern Festival? Ordinarily, unpopular princes and princesses like Wu Fengyan could not enter and leave the palace freely at will.
What's more, what puzzles Xia Luotong is that when she bumped into Wu Fengyan just now, she could clearly tell that the ninth prince must have practiced martial arts, otherwise he would not have such a figure.
And this can already be seen when Wu Fengyan grabbed himself to prevent himself from falling. Such reaction speed and strength cannot be achieved by ordinary people.
But he couldn't care about that much at this time. Just as Xia Luotong finished speaking, he discovered that Wu Fengyan was actually injured. There were several bloody wounds on his back, which looked really scary, and Wu Fengyan's complexion was obviously not good.
"Are you injured? What's going on?"
Xia Luotong wanted to check Wu Fengyan's injuries, but Wu Fengyan raised his hand to block him, and then urged: "Leave quickly, leave me alone!"
After hearing this, Xia Luotong's eyes suddenly focused, and she noticed something was wrong with Wu Fengyan. The next moment, she noticed several auras that were approaching quickly, and they were not from the wave of people who were chasing her.
Xia Luotong glanced at Wu Fengyan and felt convinced. It seemed that this boy was someone's concern. He also suffered such an injury. He was not a kind person.
He didn't have time to think too much about how Wu Fengyan, the dignified Ninth Prince, could be hunted down. He immediately grabbed him and said decisively: "Let's run! I am also being hunted down, and I happen to have a companion." .”
Xia Luotong immediately picked up Wu Fengyan, took a step forward, and continued running deep into the alley. Wu Fengyan was stunned for a while, and allowed Xia Luotong to drag him away.
At the same time, at the entrance of the alley where Xia Luotong first left the main street, several people crowded in. One of them was Wu Zechen, who was constantly exuding air-conditioning.
"Replying to the prince, this is where the princess left the main street. Judging from the route, she should have planned to go back through the alley to find the prince." The secret guard replied respectfully, but his stiff back and slightly damp forehead were all traced. It shows how nervous he is at this time.
The disappearance of the princess is a big deal! The expression on the prince's face was extremely different along the way, which made all the secret guards tremble with fear.
"What about the princess now?" Wu Zechen's face was cold, but he was nervous in his heart.
"We are still investigating, but we found some traces of a fight in the alley not far ahead. The most important thing is that our subordinates found traces of the princess's poisoning at the scene."
Wu Zechen's heart tightened when he heard that he was able to force Xia Luotong to fight back with poison in the capital. It was obvious that the situation was not very good. He asked urgently: "Is the princess injured?"
"No, there was no sign of the princess being injured at the scene, but judging from the fighting, the princess should have escaped.
Wu Zechen breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he was okay, but when he thought of Xia Luotong, whose whereabouts were still unknown, he immediately said to the secret guard: "Take me over there quickly and have a look!"
Wu Zechen was still searching for Xia Luotong persistently and nervously, never giving up for a moment, following the marks she left, searching all the way.
At this time, Xia Luotong was holding Wu Feng Yan beside him and kept walking through the deep alley, trying to get rid of the pursuers behind him.
But those people behind them were holding on tightly, and the two groups had already met, but they did not fight, but chased behind them together.
Wu Fengyan's eyes, which were originally wary of everyone, now looked at Xia Luotong beside him, but there was no usual suspicion and resistance, and there was even a bit of vague awkwardness mixed in.
Wu Fengyan never thought that he would meet this woman again, and under such circumstances, it seemed that the two of them were always entangled in all kinds of troubles and always in danger. generally.
This was the case at the last palace banquet, and it is still the case this time.
In fact, there was no friendship between the two of them, but the woman still helped him. She was injured. She could have left her and fled, but she chose to take her with her and gave herself some food. The strange pills actually significantly relieved the injuries on his body.
Originally, with his vigilance, he would never take something given by others so easily, but just now he couldn't even explain why. He just felt that this woman could not harm him.
Actually, I want to believe her inexplicably...
It is very abnormal for such emotions to appear in oneself.
Just as he was thinking about it secretly, a figure suddenly appeared from the wall of the courtyard nearby, swung the long knife in his hand, and slashed at the woman running in front!
The attack came suddenly and swiftly. In the blink of an eye, it was approaching Xia Luotong's shoulder, and he was about to chop him down!
If this fierce knife really hit that slender shoulder, Xia Luotong's shoulder would probably be completely removed!
Wu Fengyan's eyes widened angrily, and there was some tension in his heart that he was not even aware of. He didn't want this woman to get hurt!
Almost subconsciously, he took Xia Luotong's hand, jerked it in front of him, and then spun her around, switching positions between the two!
"careful!"
Xia Luotong screamed and watched helplessly as the thief suddenly appeared and slashed Wu Fengyan's back with the sharp sword in his hand!
Blood spattered, Wu Fengyan immediately groaned, his face instantly turned pale, his brows were tightly knitted, he was obviously enduring great pain!
But even so, this wolf-like young man never let out the slightest cry of pain.
