Seeing the guard fall to the ground, the four people who blocked the car also looked surprised.
Shen Tianshu felt strange, weren't they the same group as the person who fired the crossbow?
Before she could think about it, she saw a masked man walking towards the carriage, holding a crossbow in his hand.
Li Zihan's small body couldn't stop trembling slightly, and his hand around Shen Tianshu's neck tightened again.
Shen Tianshu raised his hand and gently pressed the back of Li Zihan's head, letting her bury her face in his shoulder. Feeling the wet coldness on her cheeks, he whispered: "Be good, don't look."
All the events of her previous life before her death flashed through her mind, and finally the image of her holding her little niece in her arms and hiding in the cabinet...
Although he has already been reborn, is he destined to be unable to escape such a fate?
Just when Shen Tianshu thought he was dead this time, the situation outside the car suddenly changed.
The four people who blocked the car actually drew their weapons and blocked the masked man's path.
Shen Tianshu was puzzled, but he couldn't think too much at this time.
No matter which group of people outside wins, they are just waiting to die if they stay in the carriage. Looking at the little and soft Li Zihan in his arms, Shen Tianshu feels that he should still give it a try.
She whispered to Li Zihan: "Princess, hold my neck tightly and never let go, okay?"
Li Zihan didn't speak, just nodded and tightened his arms.
While the two sides were still confronting each other outside, Shen Tianshu quietly slipped out from the other side of the carriage, using the cover of the carriage compartment to quietly move towards the entrance of the alley.
Fortunately, there were many sheds built by the surrounding people in the alley, which originally hindered the passage of traffic, but now they became shelters for her to hide from.
It was not that the two sides who were confronting each other didn't realize that Shen Tianshu had sneaked away, but the atmosphere between them was very tense at this time, and it could be said that it was on the verge of breaking out, and no one bothered to come and catch them.
Of course, those people may just think that the two of them can't run far anyway, and it is more important to resolve their problems first.
But no matter what the reason was, Shen Tianshu still seized the opportunity and walked cautiously to the entrance of the alley.
Sure enough, she remembered correctly. As soon as she came out of the alley, she saw the shadow of the shack in the distance.
Shen Tianshu hugged Li Zihan tightly, no longer thinking about what was happening behind him, and ran towards that direction with all his strength.
Due to the construction of shacks, this wasteland in the west of the city has been very lively in the past half month. Although there is a mixture of fish and dragons, there are people walking around at any time during the day and night.
Shen Tianshu hugged Li Zihan and got into a shack, hoping that multiple identical shacks could confuse the thief's judgment.
This time in the evening is the best time for these homeless people to go out and beg for money and food.
So although the fire in the shack was not out, there was no one there.
Shen Tianshu didn't care whether he was done properly or not, and sat down on the ground. Only then did he feel that his legs were sore and there were waves of acupuncture.
The most important thing is that her legs are shaking non-stop now, and she can no longer exert any strength at all. She has actually run out of strength.
"Hurry up and hide." Shen Tianshu didn't care about resting. He dug out a hole from the mess in the shack and prepared to hide Li Zihan in it.
Li Zihan's little face was full of tears. He grabbed Shen Tianshu's hand with a frightened look on his face and said in a sobbing voice: "Sister Tong, don't leave me!"
Shen Tianshu was so heartbroken by her crying that he stretched out his hand to help her wipe the tears on her face, and said comfortingly: "You hide obediently. If I don't leave, I will stay with you outside. Don't worry, the prince will take care of you." Come rescue us soon."
When he mentioned the prince, Li Zihan's spirit was lifted a little, and he nodded vigorously and said: "Yes, big brother will come to save us soon."
After hiding Li Zihan with the debris piled by homeless people in the shack, Shen Tianshu collapsed on the ground, unable to move.
She tried hard to listen to what was going on outside, but found that she couldn't hear anything.
Shen Tianshu bit his lower lip slightly and began to feel a little regretful about his choice just now. Although hiding in the shack concealed his whereabouts, he also lost his understanding and control of the situation outside.
Although the stove was burning in the shack, her heart felt extremely cold.
With the abilities of those people, it was only a matter of time before they were found...
Li Zi'an, who had high hopes from Li Zihan, was currently listening to several ministers arguing in the palace about which granary to transfer grain from.
Suddenly someone ran in quickly and said: "Report! Your Majesty, the carriage the princess is riding in was attacked in the west of the city!"
Li Zian suddenly stood up and asked, "Zihan? Isn't she at home? Why did she go to the west of the city?"
But obviously, if even he didn't know the answer, others present would be even less able to answer him.
Li Zian couldn't care less about discussing food and grass. He stood up and walked out while quickly giving an order: "Come here, bring your horse and call all the secret guards immediately for reinforcements."
Although he knew that his sister was always protected by secret guards, Li Zian was still anxious.
However, as he kept riding towards the west of the city, bad news kept coming one after another.
"The princess went out with Lady Tong today."
"The princess's personal bodyguard was killed."
"All the secret guards following the princess were killed."
"Ms. Tong and the princess took advantage of the chaos to escape. Their current whereabouts are unknown."
Li Zian's face became darker and darker, and he kept urging the horse under his crotch, directly overtaking the guards who were riding in front to clear the way, and rushed to the front.
The others also hurriedly rode hard to keep up, but their horses were naturally not as sophisticated as Li Zian's, and the distance became wider and wider.
Everyone was so anxious that they wanted to beat the horse's butt to pieces and chase after him.
After all, the person who can take out the guards and secret guards of the palace is definitely not an ordinary person. The safety of the princess is still unknown. If something happens to the prince again, the palace will be in trouble.
It was still a long way from Prince Rui's Mansion to the west of the city. By the time Li Zian arrived, the scene had been taken over by the Prince's Mansion.
"Where's the person?" Li Zian turned over and dismounted, asking anxiously before he could stand still.
"If you tell me, Master Shizi, he has already sent people out to look for him."
Li Zian walked to the carriage, pushed open the door, and looked at the crossbow arrow inserted diagonally into the seat, his eyes turned red.
"My lord, no blood was found around the carriage, which means that neither Lady Tong nor the princess was injured..."
Li Zian was too lazy to listen to his nonsense and said sternly: "The two of them can't run far, so they are searching nearby. I will dig through every brick and tile for me!"
"yes!"
Time passed bit by bit, but no good news came.
Li Zian was visibly getting more and more agitated, pacing incessantly.
