Arrows were fired from the left side and from the rear.
Wen Jin hid on the right side of the horse's belly, narrowly avoiding the arrows.
Even though she tried her best to urge the horse to run fast, the horse still received two arrows on its butt.
The horse was in pain and ran very fast.
Wen Jin used all his strength to hang on to the horse and not be thrown off.
There are fewer and fewer feather arrows that can catch up with her...
But if she continues to waste it like this, she won't be able to hang on anymore!
Just when Wen Jin was looking for an opportunity to jump on his horse and confront the person who fired the cold arrow...
Suddenly the sound of fighting came from behind.
The rain of arrows shot at her suddenly stopped!
"Uu——"
Wen Jin hugged the horse's neck and swung onto the horse's back with all his strength.
Her hands were bleeding from the reins.
The horse was hurt by the arrow and ran wildly.
Wen Jin quickly called out the spiritual spring space.
The strong spiritual energy that hit his face made the horse calm down instantly.
It took big mouthfuls, greedily breathing the air in the spiritual spring space, and at the same time, it slowly stopped.
Wen Jin looked back and saw a man in black and gold riding clothes chasing after him on horseback.
Wen Jin frowned slightly, stretched his bow and drew the string, aiming his arrow at the person coming...
The man is getting closer...
"Jin'er! Jin'er!"
Xiao Yuchen's face appeared in sight through the obstruction of leaves.
Wen Jin breathed a sigh of relief and put down his bow and arrow.
"I was late and I scared you!" Xiao Yuchen's face was full of anxiety and self-blame.
Wen Jin shook his head, "It's not too late. Who is the other party?"
"There are more than a dozen people on the other side. Judging from their skills, they are well-trained people with assassination experience...
"Fortunately, you are alert and can run fast. If you wait for them to get closer and surround them..."
The more Xiao Yuchen talked, the more scared he became.
He looked at Wen Jin fearfully, his eyes scanning her body several times.
"No injuries..."
As soon as Wen Jin finished speaking, he saw the blood on her palm.
"Are you bleeding?" Xiao Yuchen took her hand.
In her soft palm, there was a bloody cut made by the reins.
He held her hand with one hand, and touched himself with the other hand, "Where is the medicine, where is the medicine..."
"It's okay, it's just a bit of skin breakage. I have medicine over there. I'll apply it when I get back." Wen Jin waved his hand indifferently.
Xiao Yuchen looked at her in disbelief... If it were any other woman, she would have cried, right?
I have never seen a woman who took injuries and bleeding so seriously.
But then I thought about it... She was once a delicate lady, and it was he who forced her to become so strong.
Xiao Yuchen's mouth suddenly had a bitter taste, "You can ride my horse."
He gave his horse to Wen Jin and helped her mount.
And he was like a "groomman", holding the horse for her honestly...
He was embarrassed to ride with her.
The two returned to the place where they had fought.
"Your Majesty..."
The guards came forward and were preparing to report.
But when he raised his eyes, he was stunned. What was going on?
I saw the prince leading two horses, one with the princess sitting on it, and the other horse was hit by an arrow, so its back was empty.
And the prince actually held the reins on foot? !
The guard quickly handed over his horse to Xiao Yuchen, "The prince rides a lowly horse!"
"They were all dead soldiers, and no one was left alive. Seeing that they could not escape, they quickly committed suicide by taking poison.
"The corpses and arrows will be brought back to the camp for detailed inspection to see if any clues can be found. In addition, the emperor and the prince are safe there."
Xiao Yuchen nodded and was about to mount his horse.
Wen Jin dismounted and walked quickly towards the corpse beside him.
Xiao Yuchen hurriedly followed her, "Be careful!"
She had wounds on her hands, and these dead soldiers died of poison...
Xiao Yuchen looked at his own princess who was braver than ordinary men... and was terrified.
She doesn't look like a lady or a housewife at all.
She had no inhibitions, no fear on her face, and very calmly inspected the dead bodies on the ground.
She pulled at the dead body's eyelids, pinched its cheeks and opened its mouth...
She even took out a dagger and cut open the corpse's clothes to...
"Hey!" Xiao Yuchen's expression changed, and he stepped forward and held her hand.
Although this person is already dead!
But he is also a man!
She just used a knife to strip off a man's clothes in front of all his men? And then check again?
Xiao Yuchen looked at her firmly, "Leave it to the police for inspection. If they find any clues, I will tell you as soon as possible!"
Wen Jin raised his eyes to look at him.
Their eyes met, as if sparks were flying.
"Okay," Wen Jin put away the dagger and clapped his hands, "promise to tell me as soon as possible?"
Xiao Yuchen:......
He even saw his men snickering!
Seeing Wen Jin walking towards other dead bodies again.
"I promise! Promise!"
Xiao Yuchen quickly stepped forward and pulled her away.
The two of them left this place first, riding horses together.
Wen Jin suddenly turned to look at Xiao Yuchen, "You did not take over the Jinwu Guards and refused to be reinstated. But I feel that you have more people at your disposal than before, and your role by my father's side is also greater than before. Is it too big?"
Xiao Yuchen looked at her side face, facing her probing and serious gaze, his heartbeat was a little erratic.
"Under my father, there is a special organization called the 'Imperial City Division'. The Imperial City Division is responsible for secretly investigating information and carrying out assassination missions.
“Everyone only knows that the Imperial City Division exists, but they don’t know the personnel structure of the Imperial City Division. These are all secrets.
"Everyone in the Imperial City Division has two identities. They have their own responsibilities on the surface. But secretly they work for the Imperial City Division."
Wen Jin looked at him in surprise, then looked left and right.
"Since it's a secret, why did you tell it so easily?" Wen Jin frowned.
Xiao Yuchen smiled and said, "You are not someone else. I have no secrets from you."
Wen Jin:......
"Now, are you in charge of the Imperial City Department?" Wen Jin asked.
Xiao Yuchen nodded, "The incident that harmed Xiao Yunjie and what happened today will be investigated by the Imperial City Department. I hope there will be results as soon as possible."
As soon as the two of them returned to the camp, a guard came forward and reported, "Go back to the prince..."
The guard glanced at Wen Jin and hesitated to speak.
"It's okay, just tell me." Xiao Yuchen said.
"The groom's family was captured. As expected, the family ran away with a large amount of money. There were as many as three hundred taels.
"The groom's family is not well-off, and he also has an old mother who is sick. The origin of these three hundred taels is unknown. Under questioning, they confessed that the groom suddenly brought them back the night before he left.
"But where the money came from, they had no idea."
After the guard finished reporting, Xiao Yuchen waved his hand.
Wen Jin lowered his eyes and said, "So...the clue has been broken again."
The groom bit his tongue and committed suicide. His family knew nothing...
Xiao Yuchen whispered, "Unless Xiao Yunjie is willing to say it."
Wen Jin narrowed his eyes, "Xiao Yunjie asked Yu'er to race, as if he was instigated by someone. But when my father asked, he didn't say who instigated him."
"I'll ask him." Xiao Yuchen raised his feet and left.
But Wen Jin held him back, "I see he's very afraid of you. If you go there with a stern face, he won't be frightened and cry when he sees you, right?"
Xiao Yuchen was startled, "Am I that scary?"
Isn't he quite like Yushu Linfeng?
Wen Jin: "He was just frightened and had a high fever at night. It's just right now. If you scare people to tears again, as an elder, you will inevitably be suspected of being 'unkind'."
Xiao Yuchen raised his eyes and looked at Wen Jin, "Thank you madam for thinking about me."
Wen Jin frowned.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to be so polite. This is the only clue left. Don't cut it off anymore."
Don't make the dislike in your tone too obvious.
Xiao Yuchen:......
