Princess stop acting!Your Majesty, he has the ability to read minds

Chapter 172 Ambush all the way

After Duan Xiaochen left, Song Zhiyi ordered people to put out all the fires, this place is remote, if there is a fire, it will attract attention.

Xiao Zeyuan's people are patrolling around, as long as they are not too close to this side, they will not find any abnormalities here.

Song Zhiyi wondered if the bandits here were in collusion with the officials, but ordinary bandits probably don't have this ability. If they did, they would have been suppressed long ago. It's impossible for the people above not to know, unless the people below are too good at hiding it.

First the mountain collapsed, and then the reservoir... There seemed to be something wrong with all of this.

"The construction of the reservoir was sent by the imperial court, right? Since this is the case, there should be no cutting corners... I can only say that there is no such thing for the time being..."

Song Zhiyi couldn't figure out what happened to cause such a big disaster.

"His Royal Highness manages his subordinates well. The people who go down from the court are all selected by His Royal Highness. No one dares to make small moves under His Royal Highness's nose."

Song Zhiyi thought it would be the same, so the problem lies below.

According to what the refugees said, they live not far from here. If such a big incident happened in Yangliu Town, they couldn't have heard of it. It seems that they still have to send someone to find out what the magistrate here is doing. food.

Duan Xiaochen came back in the middle of the night, he didn't dare to delay, seeing that Song Zhiyi hadn't fallen asleep yet, he told her everything he saw in the town.

"There are not many families in Yangliu Town now, and funerals are held everywhere in the town. I'm afraid it's not just the good man's family that's in trouble."

"But there are other abnormal places found?"

Duan Xiaochen thought about it, and told what he saw in the good man's house.

"The Shanren's mansion is the largest in the town. It stands to reason that there should be no one there, but when I went there, I found that there were many people guarding there, and they seemed to be practitioners. son, and it doesn't look like Ye Luzi."

This is strange, isn't it said that bandits were encountered there?

The people under Duan Xiaochen are all from serious sects, so he can tell at a glance that those people are not bandits at all, they are orderly, and they are very thoughtful in every aspect. arrived.

"Now send the letter immediately and ask the official closest to here to come over, Wei Ling, you should keep an eye on the official in question, take your men and horses, and set off immediately."

Since Song Zhiyi met her, she couldn't ignore it. If those people in Yangliu Town were really disguised as bandits, then the people in the town might die in the end. She just hoped that the person in charge would come earlier.

On the second day, the group of them still stayed here and did not leave. Wei Ling and Duan Xiaochen had been there for a while, and they didn't know what was going on there.

As soon as Song Zhiyi got off the carriage, she saw Qianxiao looking around warily.

She looked around, and at some point, the people hiding in the dark were all ready to fight. Could it be that bandits discovered them?

Rusting sounds came from all around, Song Zhiyi touched the sleeve arrow on her wrist, it was put on by himself when he parted with Lu Yuzhi.

"I have improved this sleeve arrow. Its accuracy and lethality will be much higher than before. Just in case, you have to carry this thing with you."

Song Zhiyi originally thought that he might not be able to use this thing, but he didn't expect that he would use it so soon.

Yue Shou stood in front of Song Zhiyi and Qianxiao, the sword in his hand whined non-stop, as if shouting towards those hiding in the dark.

Suddenly, a group of people appeared around them and surrounded them. The leader didn't seem surprised to see Song Zhiyi here, as if he knew it long ago.

The leader was a man. When he saw Song Zhiyi, his eyes showed unwilling anger and unexpected surprise.

"Take it!"

With just one sentence, the scene became chaotic in an instant. In the crowd, Song Zhiyi and the man looked at each other, and those eyes overlapped with the person in her chaotic memory for a moment. She seemed to have seen this man somewhere before. people.

Yuesha also seemed to recognize that person, who had been with Lin Luoyao all year round.

At this time, there is no time to say anything in the future, the offensive of that group of people is getting more and more urgent, if it is not for Xiao Zeyuan's people, I am afraid that they will not be able to resist it for a while.

Song Zhiyi and Qianxiao ran towards the direction Wei Ling and the others were going under the guard of Yuesha. The target of the carriage was too big. Fortunately, Qianxiao could ride a horse now. after the break.

Song Zhiyi saw the battlefield getting farther and farther behind him, and the sound of fighting gradually disappeared, so he withdrew his mind and looked ahead.

An arrow was caught off guard and shot towards them. If it wasn't for Yuesha, Qianxiao would have been hit by the arrow by now.

Song Zhiyi gritted her teeth and turned around, put her hand on Qianxiao's shoulder, and shot an arrow at the person who was chasing her.

Sure enough, as Lu Yuzhi said, even on such a bumpy horse, after the accuracy was increased, the hit rate was much higher.

"Qianxiao, just run forward and leave the back to me."

Qianxiao tightened the reins and ran forward at a faster speed. Song Zhiyi became more proficient in using it after the first few trials, and with Yuesha behind them, they quickly got rid of those people.

Song Zhiyi heaved a sigh of relief when he finally approached the town. He had used too many sleeve arrows this time, and now there are not many left.

There was a pass at the city gate, Qianxiao took out a jade pendant from his bosom and threw it into the guard's hand, the guard immediately let them pass when he saw it, just like that, the three of them finally entered the city smoothly all the way.

After entering the city, Qianxiao first delivered a letter, and Yue Sha surveyed the situation in the city. The city was considered safe, and the person Duan Xiaochen wanted to invite was here.

Song Zhiyi didn't try to hide her identity, now that someone has come to her door, there's no need for her to hide it anymore.

As soon as the magistrate here saw the token of the royal family, he immediately welcomed people in. Although he heard that the princess's carriage had passed, the token could not be faked.

When Qianxiao passed by the front hall, she heard something from the servants. The original convoy was also ambushed, but for some reason, the assassins over there quickly retreated.

When she told Song Zhiyi about this, Song Zhiyi immediately understood that there were traitors among those who came to pick her up.

Fortunately, they didn't intend to go with the large army at first, probably because they changed suddenly, and those people had not had time to tell each other about the news in the future, and that's why the attack happened.

However, Song Zhiyi didn't think that the people in the motorcade were with Lin Luoyao. It seemed that there were several people who didn't want her to return to the capital alive.
