Perhaps it was because someone took the lead, but after a while, ten people signed up. The middle-aged man said that there would be one round for ten people, and he asked everyone to start preparing.
Luo Qingyan glanced at Yun Shang, pondered for a moment and then said: "Just wait for me on the shore. Don't walk around at will, and try not to get close to places with too many people."
Yun Shang responded with a smile: "Okay."
Luo Qingyan got on the boat alone. The boat was a small boat, with lanterns hanging on the bow and stern. The lanterns were also lotus lanterns, but the lotus lantern in the middle of the lake was more exquisite and larger.
There is a row of lanterns next to each boat, extending from the shore to the center of the lake. Lantern riddles are hung under each lantern. Yun Shang looked at Luo Qingyan with a smile, thinking in her heart, not knowing that Luo Qingyan started rowing the boat.
What does it look like?
But Luo Qingyan didn't pick up the oar, and the boat was already moving. Yun Shang frowned and understood. She couldn't help but curled her lips. Luo Qingyan, a shameless person, got into that person's
There was no gap. The man only said that he was the first to arrive at the center of the lake and retrieve the lotus lantern, but he did not say that he had to use an oar to row to the center of the lake. Luo Qingyan used his inner strength to drive the boat forward and reached the lantern.
Stopping, he picked up the lantern riddle hanging under the lantern and looked at it.
Looking at the other participants, they looked much more embarrassed. They had to row with oars in their hands, and when they got to the lanterns, they had to think of ways to stop the boat so that they could check the riddles on the lanterns. Some of them were not even good at rowing.
They couldn't get close to the lanterns at all. The boat kept spinning in the lake, and they were in a hurry.
Yun Shang couldn't help laughing when she saw it. She smiled, but suddenly she noticed a gaze falling on her. Perhaps it was because the gaze was so sharp that Yun Shang couldn't help but restrain her smile.
Intentionally, he turned his head in the direction of his gaze.
Yun Shang's eyes met that person's.
Yun Shang paused, feeling a little surprised. How could he be here? Yun Sang's eyes fell on the woman behind him, and the woman made a few gestures towards Yun Sang. Yun Shang frowned and fell silent.
After a while, he walked towards that person.
"Your Majesty..." Yun Shang just bent down slightly, but before she could speak, she was stopped by the man's gaze.
"Today is the Lantern Festival, I just came out to have a look, you can play with your own business, don't worry about me." Xia Huanyu looked a little cold, looking at Luo Qingyan on the boat in the lake.
After a pause, he turned his eyes again and looked at Yun Shang, "You are inconvenienced now, so please pay more attention to yourself."
Yun Shang nodded lightly, responded, and exchanged glances with Ning Qian, who was standing next to Xia Huanyu. After Xia Huanyu finished speaking, he turned around and wanted to go to the other side.
Yun Shang looked at Xia Huanyu and before he took two steps, he heard a sudden exclamation from the lake. Yun Shang hurriedly turned around. Suddenly about forty or fifty men in black emerged from the lake.
, holding the sword in his hand and stabbing Luo Qingyan.
Yun Shang was startled and hurriedly shouted, "Why don't the secret guards hurry up and help?" More than twenty secret guards in black flew out from all around Yun Shang and rushed towards the lake.
Xia Huanyu also wanted to order the guards hidden among the people to go and help Luo Qingyan, but Yun Shang said quickly: "Your Majesty, you can't."
Xia Huanyu glanced at Yun Shang and stopped.
The people and vendors watching by the lake were all frightened by the sudden turn of events, and hurriedly ran around. For a while, there were cries, shouts, and screams.
When Yun Shang saw the people pouring in their direction, she quickly protected Xia Huanyu and leaned in a corner. The guards dressed as ordinary people all gathered around, surrounding Xia Huanyu.
But there were too many people, and the crowd pushed a group of them back. Yun Shang quickly shouted, "Go to the roof."
The attendants who were protecting Xia Huanyu quickly understood, and jumped onto the roof with Xia Huanyu and Ning Qian in their arms. Yun Shang also jumped onto the roof. Finally, she got away from the crowd.
, Yun Shang's eyes were fixed on the lake. Although there were many enemies, Xia Huanyu's own martial arts was very outstanding, and together with the twenty or so secret guards sent by Yun Shang, he did not fall behind.
After Yun Shang calmed down, she saw dozens of similarly dressed assassins hiding among the people suddenly jumped up and stabbed them with swords. There were about a dozen guards around Xia Huanyu, and Yun Shang was also surrounded by them.
There were still more than twenty people left, but they quickly rushed forward and fought together.
Ignoring Xia Huanyu's sideways glance, Yun Shang quickly pulled out the dagger from her leg with one hand, and held the silver needle in her sleeve tightly with the other hand.
Xia Huanyu only saw a pink figure flashing in front of his eyes. Before he could see clearly, Yun Shang had already appeared among the group of assassins. He struck out quickly and accurately with the dagger in his hand, and had already killed two or three people in the blink of an eye.
But it seemed that Yun Shang and the others were the main force of the enemy, and there was a steady stream of assassins rushing toward the three of them.
Seeing that the situation was getting more serious, Xia Huanyu frowned and said in a loud voice: "Protect Princess Rui well."
Not long after, nearly two hundred assassins surrounded the three of them, and the guards and secret guards were having a hard time coping. Yun Shang was distracted and glanced at the situation in the lake. Luo Qingyan and the others had already controlled the situation.
Under the cover of the secret guards, Luo Qingyan was about to escape from the assassins and come to Yun Shang and the others.
In the blink of an eye, Luo Qingyan was in front of Yun Chang, protecting Yun Chang behind him, waving the long sword in his hand, and took the time to tell Yun Chang: "Go back."
Yun Shang didn't want to. The people around him had already disappeared. Yun Shang faintly heard the sound of footsteps, and it seemed that there were many people. Yun Shang frowned. If there were more assassins, it would only be possible.
I'm afraid I can't stop him. Yun Shang thought, so he took out the white jade flute in his sleeve and sent out a signal for help.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, but Yun Shang discovered that the person leading them was actually the Seventh Prince. There was still a long way away from them, and the voice of the Seventh Prince had already come over, and it was louder than ever before: "Quick, quick.
Help! Protect my father!"
Yun Shang breathed a sigh of relief, no matter what, as long as he was not an assassin, it would be fine.
The Seventh Prince's men quickly joined the battle, and after a while, the assassins showed a bit of weakness. Yun Shang looked at the situation, and then used a white jade flute to send a message to the secret guards who were coming for reinforcements.
, so that they don’t have to come.
After the Seventh Prince arrived, within a quarter of an hour, all the assassins were wiped out.
The seventh prince hurriedly walked to the base of the wall where Xia Huanyu was standing and knelt down, "I'm late to save you, I hope my father will forgive you." (To be continued)
