Everyone they saw along the way, whether they were eunuchs, palace maids, or soldiers from the Imperial Guards of the East Palace, were killed without leaving any survivors.
At this time, Helan Chushi, who happened to be rushing toward Yichun Palace with his knife, heard the sound of dense and rapid footsteps coming from the south.
Turning his head, he happened to see the masked dead man from Prince Wei's palace coming...
The nearly forty murderous soldiers of the Wei Palace saw the four palace guards, and more than ten of them had already started to draw their bows and arrows.
"Stop!" Before Jiang Yaqing could say anything, Hou Bao, whose face changed drastically, shouted loudly first.
"It's one of our own, don't do anything..." Jiang Yaqing never expected that she would meet Helan Chushi here.
Raising his hand to signal the team behind him to slow down, Jiang Yaqing took off his mask and strode forward.
"Why is General Helan here?"
Helan Chushi said in a deep voice without a red face and a heart that did not beat.
"Cheng Sanlang had noticed something before, so just in case, I stayed here specially to take Cheng Sanlang's life.
If he does not die, my father-in-law and His Highness the King of Wei will not be safe."
"Mr. Jiang must not forget the favor that Cheng Sanlang has received from His Majesty and His Majesty's trust in him."
"..." Jiang Yaqing's expression couldn't help but change slightly. Yes, she really didn't consider this factor after Cheng Sanlang didn't arrive before.
But now, this boy Cheng Sanlang is in the East Palace. The reason why the plan has been advanced is precisely because of this boy.
If he had escaped with his life, he might have killed everything he and others had done, even if he had killed the prince's family.
It's just a wedding dress for others. After all, His Majesty also has a direct descendant of a little prince. Although he is inconspicuous now, he is the queen's descendant after all...
At this time, the two heard a burst of rapid and hasty footsteps heading this way, and saw Eunuch Fang walking towards this direction with a face full of fear.
The moment he saw Jiang Yaqing, Eunuch Fang finally smiled with relief.
"Mr. Jiang, the Crown Princess is at the wine storage pavilion east of Yichun Palace..."
"Eunuch Fang, how did it go?" Jiang Yaqing asked. Helan Chushi couldn't help but look at Eunuch Fang, eager to hear the answer he wanted to hear.
Unfortunately, this Eunuch Fang shook his head with a frightened look on his face.
"Three heroes were killed by Cheng Sanlang when they attacked him..."
"Is he alone?"
"Yes, there are also a few palace maids and eunuchs..."
Eunuch Fang just took a quick glance, and was so frightened by Cheng Sanlang's fierceness that he turned around and ran away, unable to remember anything clearly.
"However, the crown princess and the emperor's grandson Li Xiang are both there. I think Cheng Sanlang must be confident that he can keep their mother and son safe."
Hearing this, Jiang Yaqing breathed out a sigh of relief and showed a thankful smile.
Since they are all gathered together, it saves me a lot of time.
Send away the prince's family as soon as possible, as well as Cheng Sanlang, a bastard who has been a life-and-death enemy to His Highness the King of Wei for a long time.
It would be better to leave the way we came, continue to hide our merits and fame, and make careful plans for His Highness the King of Wei's upcoming ascension to the crown prince.
"The reckless man of the Cheng family really saved Jiang a lot of effort. That's all, General Helan, you and I are going together?"
"Let's go. If Cheng Sanlang doesn't die, a certain family will feel uneasy." Helan Chushi weighed the horizontal knife in his hand and said sadly.
#####
Just when they had not gone far, they saw a eunuch and a palace maid running towards them in panic.
Helan Chushi narrowed his eyes, but he recognized the palace maid, who was serving the Crown Princess. He immediately raised his hand to signal the others to stop, and he strode forward.
"You two stop, do you want to die or live?!"
The eunuchs and palace maids who stumbled away saw the prince Helan Chushi leading thousands of cattle to prepare, and they subconsciously saluted quickly.
"Helan Qianniu, General Cheng is crazy, he, he asked the princess to burn herself."
"What?!" Helan Chushi and Jiang Yaqing, who was walking slowly forward, exclaimed in unison.
"He, General Cheng, heard the sound of fighting south of the palace wall, so he told the princess that he could only escape with the little prince.
But I was worried that the Crown Princess, who was pregnant with Liujia, would be humiliated by the thieves, so I asked the Crown Princess to self-immolate."
"You also want me to die with the Crown Princess. Servant, I really don't want to die, so I ran away..."
Helan Chushi took a breath of cold air, never expecting that Cheng Sanlang would be so vicious and cruel.
"Is this guy crazy? So crazy?!"
Jiang Yaqing's face was gloomy, but there was a hint of admiration in his eyes, and he murmured in a low voice.
"It's difficult to have both choices, so I chose the best one. Sure enough... he is indeed the most outstanding one in the old Cheng family.
No wonder His Highness the King of Wei suffered a lot of hidden losses under his hands."
The eunuchs and maids, panting and confused, saw Jiang Yaqing, a middle-aged man who had accompanied King Wei into the palace.
There are also those murderous ones behind them. At first glance, it is obvious that they are not good birds. The dead soldiers of the Wei Palace.
Almost at the moment when Helan Chushi's face was filled with shock and Jiang Yaqing mumbled in a low voice, the two of them ran side by side without hesitation.
But before they could even run a few steps, the elite archers among the dead men of the Wei Palace were already aiming at Song Xian, accompanied by the sound of immortal buzzing.
The fair-faced palace maid had only three feather arrows on her body, and almost all of the seven or eight feather arrows were stuck in the eunuch's back.
"...You guys, alas..." Jiang Yaqing originally wanted to ask for some unclear details, but now, these two unlucky ghosts may no longer be able to answer their questions in the world.
Helan Chushi strode to the two lying, still twitching bodies, and stabbed another one.
Holding the horizontal knife that was still bleeding freely, he looked at the front with a sad look and asked in a deep voice.
"Mr. Jiang, what should we do?"
Jiang Yaqing raised her hand and pointed forward, then took a long step forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with Helan Chushi.
"Let's go. I hope that by the time we get to the Wine Cang Pavilion, that boy Cheng Sanlang has burned the Crown Princess first..."
Hearing this naughty remark, Helan Chushi, who had been a little nervous after being tormented by Cheng Sanlang these past few days, couldn't help but grin.
#####
In front of the wine storage pavilion, Cheng Sanlang squatted on the ground and smelled the strong aroma of wine. He couldn't help but take a few deep breaths.
At this time, Li Xiang, who had only one lining on his body, was carried on Wu Xiuyi's back.
After performing the melodrama immediately, Wu Xiuyi, who had quick legs, carried Li Xiang back to the cellar to hide.
As for the other Wang Xiuyi who was at the entrance of the courtyard, staring out through the gap in the door, he had already decided to break out with Cheng Sanlang to lure away the assassins.
But at this moment, Li Xiang tilted his head, looked at the crudely made rag doll in Uncle Cheng's arms, and muttered in a low voice with disgust on his face.
"Uncle Cheng, why don't you just carry me on your back? This rag doll you are wearing doesn't look like me at all. It's too ugly."
