More than a dozen steps away, Pei Huanduan was sitting in a wheelchair. When he heard Song Shuwan asking, a hint of solemnity flashed in his eyes: "Before you ask me, why don't you tell me why you are here?"
Song Shuwan was stunned when she was asked, and then she quickly looked at Princess Yun beside her. When she went to Yun Mansion before, Princess Yun did the same thing. Twice in a row, what did Princess Yun want to do?
The wind blew, and Princess Yun frowned: "Prince Concubine, there is no need to look at me like this. I didn't know that the Crown Prince would come here."
Song Shuwan was speechless, but Pei Huan frowned and asked coldly: "Is Princess Yun really ignorant, or is she pretending not to know?"
"Is there any difference? After all, we have already met, so what's the point of talking more?"
When the words fell, Princess Yun was already at Pei Huan's side: "Besides, the purpose of bringing the Crown Princess here may be different from the Crown Prince."
"boom!"
At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from the entrance to the village.
Several people turned their heads at the same time and saw countless arrows falling from the sky into the village. In an instant, the village was enveloped in the smell of blood, and screams resounded throughout.
"Protect Your Highness!"
A loud roar came, and a dozen strong men dressed in civilian clothes rushed towards the entrance of the village.
At the same time, Song Shuwan was pulled behind the wheelchair by Pei Huan, and the secret guards rushed out to shoot down all the flying arrows.
"Go back inside!"
An Yi cut off an arrow and shouted over his shoulder.
Song Shuwan pushed the wheelchair to the side without thinking: "Princess, follow me!"
Princess Yun stood there without moving. Song Shuwan ran a few steps. After catching a glimpse of her behavior from the corner of his eye, he had to hand Pei Huan over to An San: "You take the prince into the house first, I will come later."
An San subconsciously took over the wheelchair: "Prince Princess, please be careful!"
Song Shuwan ignored An San, ran back and grabbed Princess Yun's hand and left.
Unexpectedly, within two steps, Princess Yun from behind suddenly grabbed her hard. The sudden force pulled Song Shuwan staggering and she almost fell down.
At this time, Princess Yun pointed at the entrance of the village and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? The arrows have stopped."
Song Shuwan's eyes widened slightly: "Princess, this is not a question of whether the arrow has stopped, but..."
Princess Yun interrupted her: "Don't worry, the purpose of those people at the entrance of the village is not us."
The next moment, several men in black fell from the sky and quickly surrounded the two of them.
"Kill them."
Song Shuwan: "..."
Is this what Princess Yun said, not them?
Seeing the blade of one of the men in black fall, Song Shuwan pushed Princess Yun away. Before she could turn around, she heard a "ding" sound and a long sword flew diagonally, just in time to stop the falling attack.
The next moment, Fei Yuan appeared: "Prince Concubine, this place is dangerous, follow me quickly and leave."
Song Shuwan helped Princess Yun up and said, "Princess, don't take it for granted anymore. Follow me to join the prince."
"release!"
Princess Yun gave a low shout and waved her hands away before pushing Song Shuwan away.
"boom!"
Song Shuwan fell to the ground, raised her head, her eyes full of confusion: "Princess Yun, what do you mean?"
On the other side, An Yi led the secret guards to deal with some of the assassins. When he turned around and saw the situation behind him, his brows instantly furrowed: "Prince Princess, leave her alone and leave quickly."
At the same time, Fei Yuan's voice came over: "Prince Princess, leave quickly!"
With two words in succession, Song Shuwan looked deeply at Princess Yun, then quickly turned around and left. Twice in a row, she could not stop the person who wanted to die, so she could only save herself first.
In the yard, Pei Huan was staring at the door. When he saw her turning around, he frowned: "Princess Yun doesn't want to come back with you?"
Song Shuwan pursed her lips and recounted what had just happened. Doubt flashed across her expression. Logically speaking, the target of those assassins should be the eldest prince, but why did they want to kill her and Princess Yun as well?
Is it possible that the assassin's real target was actually her and Princess Yun? But if so, why didn't they intercept and kill them on the way, but pursued them to Anle Village before taking action?
After several thoughts with no results, Song Shuwan asked: "Your Majesty, who do you think those assassins outside are after?"
Pei Huan was speechless, tapping his fingers on the armrests of his wheelchair, and after a while he said, "Their target is me."
What?
Song Shuwan was shocked: "Why does the prince say that?"
Wait, she still doesn’t know why Pei Huan came to Anle Village today? Could it be that he was looking for the eldest prince to plan something, so he attracted people in the dark to take action?
Thinking of this, she looked at Pei Huan with more thoughts.
Pei Huan saw this and sighed secretly: "I am looking for the eldest prince to discuss some matters, but there are not many people involved in the matter."
Song Shuwan was not surprised that her thoughts were seen, and said calmly: "Whatever the prince discusses with the eldest prince has nothing to do with me, but those assassins outside..."
Before she could finish speaking, there was suddenly a force behind her, pushing her towards Pei Huan.
At the same time, an arrow fell on the ground, and a fight broke out in the yard.
Song Shuwan pushed her wheelchair and quickly left the yard under the protection of a group of secret guards.
On the other side, Princess Yun was still standing where she was. All the assassins who approached her were stopped by another group of people.
The two faced each other, and the assassin was unable to do anything against Princess Yun.
The leader hiding in the dark noticed this and immediately ordered: "Leave that Princess Yun alone, kill Pei Huan."
Song Shuwan happened to hear these words and stopped subconsciously: "An Yi, An San, you two take the prince and leave quickly."
An Yi and An San exchanged glances. The latter took the wheelchair, while the former stayed behind.
Song Shuwan frowned: "Why are you following me? To protect..."
"The safety of the Crown Princess is also very important."
Their eyes met, Song Shuwan gritted her teeth: "I understand, let's go to the other side."
"yes."
Before leaving, Song Shuwan glanced in the direction of Pei Huan one last time, and then ran out of the village without looking back.
If Princess Yun hadn't dragged her here, she would have been attending the banquet hosted by the Queen Mother in Cining Palace. It was really...
The embarrassment of running away did not stop until noon. Song Shuwan fell to the ground, looking at the corpse not far away, a dark light flashed in her eyes.
At this time, An Yi and Fei Yuan surrounded him from both sides.
Fei Yuan said: "Prince Princess, all the assassins who caught up have been cleared away."
Song Shuwan nodded: "Where did we run to?"
An Yi answered: "We should be east of Anle Village."
Song Shuwan narrowed her eyes. Princess Yun had said that the eldest prince lived in the east of the capital, which also meant that Anle Village was on the east side. However, they were now running to the east of Anle Village, which meant... they were getting closer and closer to the capital.
Farther away?
Realizing this, Song Shuwan pinched her eyebrows and said, "Let's go back to Anle Village."
An hour later, the three returned to Anle Village. The smell of blood in the village had been blown away by the wind, leaving only corpses on the ground.
