Being a princess in a world with more men than women

Chapter 39 Encountering an Assassin

"There are assassins."

"Feng Qing?"

Xu Yuexi was a little worried.

There are only a few of them now, and she feels uncomfortable all over. What if they can't win later?

"Xi'er, don't be afraid. Stay by my side later. Don't use force or use the mustard seed space unless it is absolutely necessary. You are just an ordinary weak woman now. Remember?" Tang Liuqing warned.

He was afraid that Xu Yuexi would help him, and he didn't want her specialness to be known to outsiders.

"Okay, I'll take note. This is my Chaoxi Sword, I'll lend it to you."

Xu Yuexi didn't expect Tang Liuqing to care so much about her. She took out her sword from the space and handed it to him.

Since she can't do it herself, let her sword help.

There was the sound of weapons clashing outside. Xu Yuexi leaned on Tang Liuqing, clutching his clothes tightly.

Suddenly, Tang Liuqing slashed the carriage shed with a sword, flew up while holding Xu Yuexi, jumped out of the carriage, and landed safely on the ground in two or three steps.

Xu Yuexi looked towards the carriage and found that the carriage shed was full of arrows. If the two of them had not come out, they would have been shot into pieces.

Lu Yang and several other guards surrounded them instantly, protecting her and Tang Liuqing. Two guards were wounded by arrows, and their blue clothes were soaked with blood.

"Your Highness, you protect the princess and leave first. I will cover your rear." Lu Yang said.

"Together," Tang Liuqing refused.

The other side doesn't have many people, and with his help, they should be able to handle it.

The purpose of this group of killers is very clear, which is to kill Tang Liuqing.

The opponent's attack was fierce, and the two injured guards fell down soon.

Gradually, more and more people were injured on their side.

"Feng Qing, why don't you let me go?"

Xu Yuexi couldn't bear to see the guards falling down one by one due to injuries.

"No, Xi'er, be obedient and stay here.

As long as I'm alive, you're not allowed to attack me, remember?" Tang Liuqing said seriously.

Looking at Tang Liuqing's serious expression, Xu Yuexi no longer insisted and stayed beside him obediently, trying not to disturb his fight.

However, accidents always happen.

The two assassins broke through the protective circle of the guards and stabbed at him with their swords. If Tang Liuqing didn't let go of Xu Yuexi, he would be stabbed by two swords.

Xu Yuexi thought he would let go, and she was ready.

Yet he showed no signs of letting up.

At the critical moment, Xu Yuexi pushed hard, and Tang Liuqing was pushed away instantly, avoiding the two swords. However, she also broke away from his protection circle and was exposed to danger.

"Xier" Tang Liuqing's eyes turned red with anxiety.

"Princess," the remaining three guards also said anxiously.

After Xu Yuexi pushed Tang Liuqing away, she lost her support and fell to the ground.

The other two assassins immediately came over with swords in hand. Just as Xu Yuexi was hesitating whether to attack or not, the two assassins fell to the ground.

Xu Yuexi raised her dizzy head and saw that a group of guards in blue robes had joined the battle. With their strong martial arts skills, most of the assassins were soon eliminated.

Xu Yuexi breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, there was no danger and he was saved.

With the addition of an outsider, Tang Liuqing broke out of the encirclement of the assassins and immediately came to Xu Yuexi's side.

"Xi'er, how are you? Who told you to push me away? Do you know how dangerous you were just now? What would I do if something happened to you?"

Looking at Xu Yuexi lying on the ground, Tang Liuqing became worried and his voice became louder.

"But I don't want you to get hurt."

Seeing Tang Liuqing's worried face, Xu Yuexi replied in a low voice.

"I would rather get hurt than put you in danger. Do you know how scared I was just now? I've already lost you once. Do you have the heart to let me lose you again?"

"Okay, Feng Qing, I know I was wrong. I won't do this again next time. I feel dizzy. Please help me."

Xu Yuexi had just bumped into something, which made her already dizzy head even more dizzy.

At this moment, a strange voice sounded above my head.

"Prince Regent, long time no see. I hope you are well."
