Rebirth of the Spoiled Little Princess

Chapter 172 The fire breaks out
"What are you standing there for?" Lin Er, who was following closely on horseback, shouted at him from afar: "The prince has already left, why don't you hurry up and follow him!"

"Hurry up!" Lin Yi quickly followed up with the remaining shadow guards.

This is a secluded and quiet alley that has always been sparsely populated. It is some distance away from the most prosperous Suzaku Street in the Imperial City. However, at this time, many people had gathered in the rain to watch, and they were even talking quietly.

"How could this fine carriage suddenly catch fire?"

"I was drinking tea in the teahouse just now. What I saw most clearly was a group of masked men in black who appeared out of nowhere, holding rockets dyed with tung oil in their hands and shooting at the carriage."

"The fire was so strong that even the heavy rain couldn't put it out. I just saw this burning carriage running all the way here and knocking down many people."

"Hey, I don't know if the little girl lying on the ground can still live. Look at her dress, she should be a maid from a wealthy family, right? As for the young lady in her family, she won't really be killed by those people in black. Did you take it away?"

"You have to have a lot of hatred to come up with such a vicious plan as setting fire to the car. But having said that, the two guards are also loyal. They were so seriously injured that they refused to escape. It's a pity that the other party is outnumbered. "

"Why are you making such a fuss!" The first group of shadow guards to arrive had already led people to surround the place. Listening to the comments of the people around them, I felt my heart sink even more. "If you make any more noise, arrest them all!"

Everyone immediately fell silent, but they still leaned forward and looked curiously into the alley, showing no intention of leaving.

"Da da--"

In the distance, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves coming from far to near.

"Quick! Get out of the way!" Lin Ba's face turned stern and he shouted loudly at the onlookers.

Everyone hurriedly ran to both sides to avoid it.

Almost in an instant, a snow-white horse leaped high with its front hooves, and with a terrifying neighing sound, the horse suddenly stopped in front of Lin Ba.

Xue Li dismounted his horse with a cold expression on his face and walked forward with the cold breath of rain all over his body. The people around him almost did not dare to raise their heads.

"Your Majesty, the Wucheng Army and Horse Division has received the news and is on its way here." Lin Ba reported in a low voice.

Xue Li didn't say anything, his expression was a bit scary.

The shadow guards have led people to surround the place tightly, blocking out the curious eyes of the onlookers. The patter of rain washed the ground, washing away the shocking blood stains dripping down.

Xue Li walked towards the burnt carriage, Lin Qilin Jiu was lying a few steps away from the carriage covered in bruises, and a little further away was a comatose little maid.

"Take them back to treat their injuries first." Xue Li raised his hand lightly.

"Yes." Lin Ba agreed immediately, waved his hand back, and summoned a few people to take the three seriously injured and unconscious people down.

"Wait a minute." From the corner of his eye, Xue Li suddenly caught a glimpse of something that seemed to be clutching tightly in Ji Xing's hand.

The shadow guard immediately stopped and looked at him inquiringly: "Your Majesty?"

Xue Li frowned slightly, pulled away Ji Xing's hand, and took out something that looked quite familiar from her palm.

It was an unfinished embroidered sachet.

It was soaked with blood, and the pattern was no longer clear, but he could still vaguely make out the outlines of the mandarin ducks, which he mistook for two large yellow chickens.
