Koi Fleeing Famine: I Picked Up a Chief Assistant as a Husband

Chapter 156 Attacked Again
The news that Concubine Song summoned Princess Beiling immediately reached the emperor's ears.

That night, the emperor came to Song Guifei's bedroom and had dinner together.

Pei Er brought tea, put it on the table and left.

"I heard that you summoned the princess of Beiling Kingdom?" the emperor asked gently, holding Concubine Song's slender and fair hand.

Concubine Song smiled slightly, "This concubine knows that the emperor is busy with government affairs, and this concubine is afraid of neglecting Princess Beiling, so I specially invite her into the palace to care about her."

After hearing this, the emperor raised his eyebrows slightly, "Since you have met her before, what do you think of Princess Beiling?"

Concubine Song gently snuggled into the emperor's arms: "Princess Beiling is a smart girl, not only beautiful, but also very good-natured."

"It seems that you are very satisfied with her." When the emperor said this, he looked at Concubine Song deeply.

Concubine Song noticed something, and immediately got up and knelt down, "The concubine is just afraid of neglecting the princess, so as not to cause disputes between the two countries, and I ask the emperor to learn from her."

Seeing how nervous she was, the emperor chuckled and pulled her up to sit next to her, "I just asked casually, you don't have to be nervous."

"Who is the emperor going to promise the princess to?" Song Guifei asked tentatively.

"I have decided to choose a husband-in-law for Princess Beiling in this spring."

Concubine Song heard that the emperor was going to choose a husband-in-law for Princess Beiling in Chunwei, and a hint of calculation flashed across her eyes. Even if the emperor refused to marry Princess Beiling to Ziheng, it didn't matter, as long as Shen Lanze couldn't participate in Chunwei, she didn't have any worries.

"Your Majesty, I want Princess Beiling to have more contact with the minister's daughter, so that she can get used to this place earlier. What do you think, Your Majesty?" Concubine Song asked softly.

"Well, what Aifei said is true! This matter is left to you."

"My concubine thanks the emperor for your kindness!" Concubine Song thanked her with a smile, her lowered eyes became darker.

Lu House.

Shen Lanze was studying in his room, when Lu Nanzhi pushed open the door and walked in, holding the soup he just made in his hand.

"It's so late, why haven't you rested yet?" Shen Lanze took the steaming soup, took out a spoon and kept stirring it.

Lu Nanzhi sat across from him, pouted his chin and said, "Seeing that you have been studying hard recently, I want to make you some soup to nourish your body."

She knew that Shen Lanze had worked very hard for this spring. Seeing him staying in the room day and night recently, she was afraid that he would fall down before the exam.

As soon as Shen Lanze took her hand, he said sincerely: "When I win the first prize, how about proposing marriage with Uncle and Aunt Lu?"

"I didn't finish talking about marrying you." Lu Nanzhi pursed his lips and smiled, his face full of pride.

"Nanzhi, you..."

Lu Nanzhi reached out to cover his lips, and said coquettishly, "Idiot, I'm teasing you!"

Seeing her like this, Shen Lanze couldn't help kissing her, but Lu Nanzhi blocked it with his hand, blushing and whispering: "Drink the soup quickly! It won't taste good when it's cold!"

Only then did Shen Lanze let go of her hand, took a sip and brought it to her lips. Seeing her obediently open her mouth to hold it, she gave a doting smile, and then took another spoon and brought it to her lips. The two of them fed like this several times until Lu Nanzhi couldn't eat any more, so he gave up.

"Nanzhi, I'm going on a faraway trip tomorrow. I will go to the temple outside the city with the fifth prince and others to escort Princess Beiling and the daughters of several court ministers." Shen Lanze unreservedly told them this time All the companions spoke out.

"It doesn't matter, you can do what you have to do." Lu Nanzhi guessed that this might be arranged by Concubine Song in the palace again.

"Okay, you pay attention to safety."

It was Chun Wei soon, and Shen Lanze was worried that Concubine Song would attack Lu Nanzhi because of this, so Deadpool stayed by her side for the past few days.

In the early morning of the next day, Shen Lanze left the Lu Mansion and took Jun Moyu's carriage to the outskirts of the city. For about half an hour, the carriage drove slowly on the official road outside the city.

Suddenly, several hidden weapons flew out from all around, approaching their carriage.

The horse was frightened and went mad, raised its hooves and roared, and threw Han Feng off the horse's back, hurting his arm, and the pain was unbearable.

At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped. Shen Lanze lifted the curtain, looked up and saw three men in black appeared in front of him, holding a long sword and blocking the carriage's way.

"Who sent you here?" Shen Lanze said in a deep voice, frowning at them.

The man in black ignored Shen Lanze's words and stabbed him with a long sword.

The two jumped out of the carriage, avoided one of them, and at the same time took out the dagger in their sleeves to meet the enemy.

Seeing this, the man in black besieged Shen Lanze and Jun Moyu separately, and Han Feng who got up from the ground was also entangled by other men in black.

Seeing this, Shen Lanze quickly shouted: "Fifth Prince, be careful..."

As soon as the words fell, a sharp arrow came through the air, aiming at Jun Moyu.

When the arrow was about to hit Jun Moyu's chest, he easily turned his body to avoid the sharp arrow, then turned around and hit the man in black, fighting fiercely with him.

After the two moves, the man was already at a disadvantage. In desperation, he took out the signal flare in his arms and let off fireworks.

"Your Highness, how are you?" Shen Lanze asked with concern as he supported Jun Moyu to stand firm.

"I'm fine." Jun Moyu shook his head and said.

Shen Lanze breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

Not long after, more than a dozen men in black poured in and surrounded them. The leader shouted coldly, "Kill, and no one will be left alive."

"Looking for death!" Shen Lanze guarded Jun Moyu, glaring at the black-clothed humans.

"Go!" The leader of the man in black shouted, leading the crowd to rush forward.

The two sides immediately became one with each other. Although Shen Lanze was good at martial arts, he was outnumbered after all, and soon lost his strength, and his face was as pale as paper.

"Your Highness, Mr. Shen, let's go!" Han Feng rushed over, covered in blood, and grabbed their arms.

A few people staggered towards the position of the carriage, and just before they ran to the horse, a long sword fell from the sky without warning and stabbed the horse fiercely.

Suddenly, the horse let out a scream, fell to the ground, struggled a few times and died.

Han Feng quickly got on the horse next to him, and at the same time took His Highness Fifth's hand.

"careful!"

Shen Lanze looked at the short arrow flying over, raised his hand to block Jun Moyu, looked at the short arrow on his arm, pulled it out casually, and shot it back with his backhand.

A large amount of bright red blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth, he raised his eyes to look at the two people in the distance, and said with a weak smile, "Leave me alone... let's go..."

"Master Shen, you..." Han Feng gritted his teeth and glared at the leader in black.

"Hmph, do you think you can leave alive?"

The man in black snorted coldly, jumped in front of Shen Lanze, and raised his sword to kill him.

At this moment, a white shadow suddenly appeared, he swung his sword to block the assassin's blade, then dodged forward, grasped the hilt of the sword and grabbed the sword back with force, then quickly swung it a few times to kill the man in black, Seeing this, the other men in black rushed forward.

"Why don't you go quickly?"

The man glanced at the two people on the horse's back, grabbed Shen Lanze, put him on the horse and galloped away.

Han Feng came back to his senses and led His Highness Fifth to follow. This person should be a friend rather than an enemy, and now he can only follow him to make plans.
