There was silence in the cave, filled with a certain subtle atmosphere.
Ye Chutang blinked, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
"Your Majesty is always smart, nothing can escape your eyes."
She moved slightly, changed to a more comfortable position, and leaned against the mountain wall.
"The other party has a large number of people. Even if the prince is very skilled in martial arts, he is no match for him. What's more... the prince just recovered from a serious illness not long ago, so it may be more difficult to deal with it. Although my method is stupid, it is useful. The prince should not Will you argue with me?"
What do you care about?
She saved him and even got injured. No matter from which point of view, everything she did was impeccable.
Shen Yanchuan could only express his gratitude.
But the thank you was stuck in my throat, but I couldn't say it out.
"You could have escaped, why didn't you?" Shen Yanchuan asked.
The situation was critical at that time. If she were an ordinary woman, she would not be able to escape, but Ye Chutang was different.
As early as when he was in Jiangling, he knew that she definitely had martial arts skills.
Ye Chutang's eyes narrowed: "Doesn't it look more realistic this way?"
Shen Yanchuan looked at her steadily and said nothing for a long time.
Ye Chutang raised his head slightly and closed his eyes.
She was acting, but the injury was real. Before returning safely, she still had to conserve her strength to prevent the wound from getting worse.
If I don't turn around and let Xiao Wu see me, I will burst into tears again.
After a long silence, the cold voice came again.
"Why are you helping me so much?"
Ye Chutang opened his eyes and turned his head to look.
The sky outside the cave was gloomy and windy and rainy. Shen Yanchuan stood with his back to the entrance of the cave and his hands behind his back, unable to see the expression on his face clearly.
Ye Chutang felt that his tone seemed a little different from usual, but he couldn't tell what was different. After thinking about it, he said sincerely: "The prince has helped me many times before, so it is appropriate to reciprocate."
Shen Yanchuan asked: "Even if life and death can be ignored?"
Ye Chutang felt that Shen Yanchuan seemed to be particularly troubled today and kept asking questions like this.
She paused, then said frankly: "Actually, I didn't expect their formation to be so big. Forget about the darts, why are there still poisons on the arrows?"
Fortunately, she picked a dart. If she was lucky enough to be hit by an arrow, she would be in a lot of trouble.
Shen Yanchuan: "..."
Ye Chutang added: "Hey, speaking of this, I looked at the arrow. Is it the same as the arrow you injured before? Is the mastermind behind it the same?"
Shen Yanchuan said "hmm".
Ye Chutang looked at him with a bit of sympathy in his eyes: "What kind of hatred does this person have against you, so he wants to kill you like this? Fortunately, you are more difficult to kill... No, I mean, my prince, you are really blessed and very lucky. good."
To show his sincerity, Ye Chutang also gave a thumbs up, with a particularly sincere expression: "Really."
Shen Yanchuan: "..."
He suddenly felt that he really thought too much.
Since she came prepared, she would naturally not let herself fall into a desperate situation, and everything would be safe.
Although she was injured, judging from the energy with which she spoke now, it was not a big problem.
Shen Yanchuan's originally worried heart was slightly relieved, but when he saw her bloody clothes, the inexplicable pain in his chest still lingered.
Ye Chutang said: "It's raining heavily outside, so I'd better come here and have a rest. In this situation, it's hard to say whether they can find him."
Shen Yanchuan came over, took out the fire stick from his arms, and pretended to light some dry branches he had picked up before.
Ye Chutang stopped for a moment: "It's not cold yet. Let's order it later."
Shen Yanchuan looked sideways at her, actually accepted the offer, and then asked: "Then when do you think we will be found?"
Ye Chutang thought for a while: "Before dark?"
One afternoon should be enough to deal with those assassins.
Shen Yanchuan said: "It's raining heavily and the mountain road is muddy. I'm afraid it won't be that fast."
Ye Chutang raised his eyebrows slightly: "Your person should still have this ability, right?"
Shen Yanchuan paused.
Ye Chutang's lips curved: "Your Majesty went up the mountain today. Didn't he already know that this was a Hongmen Banquet? Did he make all the arrangements in advance?"
…
The sudden heavy rain trapped many pilgrims in the temple.
In the hustle and bustle, many people were keenly aware of the unusually depressed and tense atmosphere.
Many people started talking in low voices.
"What's going on? I think the abbot and the others have all come out?"
"I do not know……"
"You still don't know? There is an assassin on this mountain! At noon, Prince Dingbeihou and His Royal Highness Prince Qi were drinking tea at the octagonal pavilion in the middle of the mountain. Unexpectedly, an assassin appeared on the way. His Royal Highness Prince Qi was injured. Prince Dingbeihou even more He accidentally fell off a cliff, and he hasn’t been found yet!”
"Oh my god! Is it true? Why did so many people suddenly come outside and guard this place strictly? It turns out - how is Prince Dingbei doing now?"
"I haven't found him yet! The mountain is steep and it's raining. How can it be so easy to find someone?"
"I really don't know who that assassin is, but he is so bold!"
"I heard just now that His Highness King Qi has ordered the mountain to be closed. The people from the Dingbei Hou Mansion should be arriving soon. Those assassins will definitely be unable to fly!"
…
"He hasn't been found yet?"
Xiao Chengxuan asked in a deep voice.
The guard lowered his head: "This subordinate is incompetent!"
Xiao Chengxuan squinted his eyes, looked at the dark sky outside, and ordered: "If you can't find it, keep looking! Don't let any of today's assassins go! As for Dingbei Hou Shizi... he is desperate to see anyone. I want to see the corpse if I die!"
The guard hesitated: "Yes!"
…
This rain still has no tendency to decrease.
Ye Chutang looked a little worried.
——Ayan and Afeng are not at home today, and there are medicinal materials hanging in her yard.
I guess I can't have it now.
Alas, in order to save Shen Yanchuan this time, I really suffered a heavy loss, a huge loss.
You have to find a way to make up for it later.
Shen Yanchuan didn't know what Ye Chutang was thinking. Seeing that she calmed down after saying those words just now and had no intention of continuing, he said:
"I do know. However, that is between me and him. Miss Ye Er...where did you learn about it?"
Ye Chutang turned around when he heard the sound and met those deep phoenix eyes that seemed to see through everything, feeling a faint headache.
——The thing you were most worried about finally happened.
In the final analysis, the most unsolvable thing about today's matter is: she knows too much!
But she can't say that she knew it from her dream, right?
Whether it was the meeting between Shen Yanchuan and Xiao Chengxuan, or the assassins in ambush, or even the place where he stepped in the air and the cave where he fell down, she found out in her dream.
She'd never even been here before.
"I have my own way. I came here today to make sure that the prince is in good hands." Ye Chutang said boldly, "I just can't tell the prince, and I hope he will forgive me."
Shen Yanchuan raised his eyes slightly.
Crown Prince: She said she did it for me.
Ye: ...What is wrong with this person? He only listens to half of what he is told?
Prince: She also asked me what illness I had. She really loved me.
