Chapter 199

Huarongrong sat on Huahua's fast horse, and for more than an hour, her bones were almost torn apart.

After walking along the official road for a long time, the traces of Shangguanchen's motorcade gradually disappeared on the road.

"Why did it disappear here? Could it be that you have already been attacked?" Hua Rongrong was startled, with a hint of worry unconsciously showing on her face.

"Rong Rong, stop thinking about it. If you are attacked here, how can there be no trace left, at least some blood will be splashed, and it can't just disappear out of thin air." Hua Hua was not impressed by Hua Rongrong at all. Affected by nervous emotions, it seems relaxed as if you are on a sightseeing tour.

"But, the traces of the carriage disappeared here." Hua Rongrong kept searching the soft ground with her gaze.

"Old man, have you ever seen a carriage and a few people on horseback passing by here?" Huahua didn't follow Huarongrong and listen to Huarongrong's complaints, but walked to the side and asked a passing old man road.

There are not many pedestrians on the street, but they are all attracted by the beauty of Huahua and Huarongrong. A man and a woman are both extraordinary and beautiful, and they appear in this small village at the same time, which is rare in a hundred years.

After a while, Huarongrong and Huahua were surrounded by people.

"Old man, I just came out of the house, and I didn't see anyone passing by here. You should ask other people." The old man was still carrying a hoe on his shoulder. Seeing such a luxurious and handsome man talking to him, he was immediately flattered.

"I know, I know." A dirty little beggar squeezed out from the surrounding crowd, and said as if offering treasure with his hands raised.

"Little brother, what color is the carriage you saw?" Hua Rongrong squatted in front of the little beggar excitedly, her hands tightly grasping the beggar's arm and asked.

The onlookers were in an uproar.

Dressed in such a gorgeous beauty, she didn't dislike the little beggar, who was so black and dirty that he couldn't see the original color of the clothes, and she held his arm so intimately, it was really a highlight in her previous life!

"I, I saw a yellow carriage passing by here, at that time..." The little beggar didn't expect that Hua Rongrong would grab him, so he was very excited and stammered.

"Thank you!" Hua Rongrong said anxiously without waiting for the little beggar to finish, "Then where did they go? Why did they disappear when they got here?"

The little beggar was interrupted by Hua Rongrong, his face flushed red: "Go, go to the mountains."

"What?" Hua Rong was stunned for a moment, she was obviously going to guard the frontier, why did she go to the mountains on the way?

"Old man, where does the mountain in that direction lead to?" Huahua ignored Huarongrong, and asked the old man again.

"Climb over that mountain and you will arrive at Qizhou, but there are two intersections at the foot of the mountain, one leading to Qizhou and the other leading to Turpan. The person you asked about must have gone to Qizhou." the old man said. Said.

"Oh? How did the old man know they went to Qizhou?" Huahua asked with a smile on her face.

"Most people take the road to Qizhou, but few people take the road to Turpan, because there is a large Gobi Desert in the middle. A few years ago, there was a locust plague in the village, and some villagers fled together, and they all died in the Gobi Desert. On the beach, the corpses were eaten clean by locusts, and if the clothes were not left behind, the family members would not have recognized them at all.”

"Thank you, old man." Huahua smiled slightly, carried Huarong onto the horse, and ran towards the mountain pointed by the little beggar.

At the foot of the mountain, as the old man said, there are two forks.

Huahua was about to drive her horse towards Qizhou, but Huarongrong suddenly pulled the reins.

"Wait, I have a hunch that the prince and the others must take that road." Hua Rongrong said, pointing to the intersection in Turpan.

"Even if they took a shortcut, they wouldn't have to go to the next door. Where the conditions are so bad, they might be sunburned before the frontier." Huahua handed the water bag in her hand to Huarongrong, beckoning Huarongrong to drink some water Rest.

Hua Rongrong took the water, took a few sips and returned it to Hua Hua, urging: "I really feel that they are going this way, since Concubine Li intends to murder the prince, naturally he will not be allowed to reach Qizhou smoothly , this way the journey will be shortened by a bit, and it will be even more unfavorable for her to attack, presumably if this is the case, why does Concubine Li bother to take the prince to take a shortcut?"

"Okay, be patient." While speaking, Huahua turned her horse's head and ran towards Turpan.

Sure enough, after running for a long time, Huahua and Huarongrong gradually entered the Gobi, and the surrounding plants became less and less, replaced by messy stones.

After walking for a while, there were indeed messy horseshoe marks and traces of carriage shafts on the gradually softening ground.

"It seems that this is the right place, let's run faster, I believe we will be able to catch up with them in a while." Hua Rongrong was relieved at this point, as long as she found the right way, she would be able to follow Shangguan Chen all the way. Ability, protecting Shangguan Chen is not a problem.

As soon as he finished speaking, a signal flare dedicated to the royal family rose in the sky ahead.

"No, the prince is in danger." Hua Rongrong's heart tightened, and she said in a deep voice.

"Huahua, can you hurry up, the prince is in danger." Huarong's tone clearly revealed a trace of anxiety, Huahua sped up her horse and galloped towards the flashing light.

After Li Fei ignited the flare, she held her heart tightly on her chest, anxiously waiting for the arrival of the dead man.

This is the time when the guards are at their weakest. The general has already taken half of the people out to look for water sources, and the rest of the people, after a morning of exposure to the sun and thirst, may not even have the physical strength to escape, let alone fighting. there is none left.

In this battle, Li Fei can basically be said to have won the battle.

The dry ground was already hot under the sun, and people were dizzy. Several flaming arrows hit the carriage with two bangs, and the carriage, whose temperature had already exceeded the standard, suddenly ignited a raging fire.

Concubine Li didn't expect the dead man to directly attack the carriage, she was startled and screamed: "Come on, the carriage is on fire!"

The few remaining guards were in chaos, no one commanded them, they only subconsciously set up an attack formation, but they couldn't hold back the flaming arrows that shot at them one after another, and they didn't care about Li Fei who was still calling for help in the carriage. Individuals were defeated and each found a safe place to hide.

"Go!" A few assassins dressed in white rushed forward, lifted the curtain of the car, and saw that there was only Concubine Li in the carriage, they were shocked: "No, the third prince is not here."

"Help me quickly, cough cough." Concubine Li coughed from the thick smoke, but the door was already surrounded by flames, and she couldn't get out at all, she said to the assassin.

"I'm sorry, Concubine Li, we only received an order to assassinate the Third Prince, not an order to rescue you, you should ask for more blessings." The leading assassin said bluntly.

Immediately after putting down the burning car curtain in their hands, the group of people began to search around, trying to find the prince and silence him.

"How can you do this? I am the emperor's concubine, and the emperor will definitely kill you if he finds out!" Concubine Li was so smoked that she couldn't breathe, her eyes were wide open, she didn't believe that the emperor would treat her like this.

"Help! Help!" Li Fei shouted with all her strength.

But no one paid attention to her, they were still fantasizing about entering the palace in the future and waiting for their beautiful life, but now they all disappeared in the thick and choking black smoke, without a trace.

"Quick! The lord is here!" Someone shouted, and several assassins ran back quickly.

Shangguan Chen held a precious sword in his hand, but he had already forgotten how to use it, and was blocked in front of a big rock by the assassin.

"Who sent you here?" Shangguan Chen asked sharply, with a frightening aura exuding from his body.

"Hmph, I'm about to die, why do you ask this, the third prince should ask Lord Yan." The leading assassin snorted coldly, not thinking that Shangguan Chen would still be able to get out alive.

"It's because death is imminent that I want to know who is not pleasing to the king. I don't want to die in such a vague way." Shangguan Chen took a deep breath, tried to keep calm, and listened to Concubine Li in the carriage. Shangguanchen couldn't help but feel a bit of sadness at the screams.

It seems that the emperor only regards Concubine Li as a chess piece, after using it, there is no need to keep it.

"Hmph, I'm going to die anyway, so it's okay to tell you, we are the emperor's dead men, and we specialize in doing things for the emperor. If you deliberately rebelled, how could the emperor let you live in this world!" As he said, he swung his sword at Shangguan Chen cut it up.

"Wait!" Shangguan Chen hurriedly raised his hand to block it, and the sharp sword with the sound of the wind immediately looked at Shang Guanchen's arm, and the blood instantly stained a large area of ​​his clothes.

"I still have one last wish. If the strong man can fulfill me, I will be very grateful." Shangguan Chen had a layer of cold sweat on his forehead, trying to delay the time as much as possible, praying secretly in his heart, why hasn't the general come yet?

From the very beginning, Concubine Li pestered her to go to the frontier with her, and Shangguanchen was tinged with doubts.

In addition, Hua Rongrong once reminded herself, which made Shangguanchen more vigilant.

Ordering the general to take people out to search for water was actually just a cover. Shangguanchen just wanted to test Li Fei and see what her purpose of following this trip was.

In fact, Shangguanchen ordered the general to take a few guards to a camp not far away to borrow troops, but it was already this time, and the general had not returned yet, so Shangguanchen had to delay as much as possible and try to keep calm.

The assassin leader was stunned for a moment, then asked, "What wish?"

"I hope you don't embarrass my concubine after I die." Shangguan Chen's face became more serious, and he raised his eyes to look directly into the eyes of the assassin leader, exuding a strong aura that made it impossible to refuse.

The assassin then moved his gaze aside, stopped looking at Shangguan Chen, and said, "My order is only to kill you, and the others are no longer within the range of my assassination."

After speaking, he looked at Shangguan Chen: "You can rest in peace now."

"Don't!" A sharp soprano sounded from behind Shangguan Chen, and a white figure suddenly flew in front of him, blocking the assassin's fatal sword!

Hua Huayan saw that the assassin stabbed Huarongrong with a sword, the blood had already dyed the snow-white clothes red, she was furious, and forgot to conceal her identity, she flew forward, blocking Huarongrong and Shangguan In front of Chen, staring at the assassins opposite with red eyes, he approached step by step.

Those assassins were flustered by the sudden stare of a beautiful man, and they backed up slightly at the same time.

"Hehe, you still know how to be afraid? That's good, it's exciting enough to fight like this!" Huahua seemed to be a different person, and her whole body was shrouded in a chill. In the hot afternoon, Huahua stared at the assassins and beat them up. a chill.

"Go!" The leading assassin resisted the shock brought by the huge pressure, swallowed his saliva and said harshly.

No one behind him rushed forward following his words.

Even the dead warriors carefully cultivated by the emperor have all kinds of emotions and six desires. When life and death are at stake, they will still instinctively retreat in fear.

"Hehe, what's the matter, are you scared?" The corner of Huahua's mouth evoked an evil smile. Different from the previous pure beauty, Huahua at this time, has never had a demon, beautiful eyes, and I don't know when, from pitch black to beautiful. It's scarlet!

I don't know where to find a shining bow. From the bow body to the bow wire, there is a cold light, and the people who watch it feel terrified.

Huahua stretched out her slender, white and tender fingers gracefully, and pulled the bow wire like playing a piano. Suddenly, a beam of light condensed into the shape of an arrow in the air, extremely sharp!

"Rongrong! Rongrong, are you alright?" Shangguanchen's nervous voice suddenly came from behind, holding Huarongrong who had turned into a bloody man into a coma in his arms, he said anxiously.
