Chapter 100 Zhizhi Assists
Blood was splattered all around, and the bodies of the assassins fell one by one. However, there were two people in total, the Crown Prince and Shu Yan, and both of them had injuries on their bodies.

Nan Zhiyu's eyelids trembled a few times. She gritted her teeth, gripped the bow handle, drew the bow and put the arrow on it, recalling the tricks that His Highness had taught her in her mind.

A long arrow shot out quickly and hit the arm of an assassin. The prince took the opportunity to finish him off, and the man fell to the ground and died.

Half of the assassins had been killed, and when they discovered that such an inconspicuous woman could actually use a bow and arrow, they immediately focused their attention on her.

Nan Zhiyu was well protected by the prince and Shu Yan. As the saying goes, the first time is a trial, the second time is familiar. Her posture in drawing the bow and arrow became more and more standard, and her speed became faster and faster.

The three of them worked together seamlessly.

However, the number of bows and arrows she brought was always limited, and there were still seven or eight people on the opposite side who were ready to kill the three of them here.

Shu Yan looked at the men in black around him vigilantly, tore off the cloth from the hem of his clothes and tied his hands to the handle of the knife.

"Your Highness, please take your people and leave first. I will stop them here."

Wei Qingye snorted coldly and clenched the sword in his hand, "There is no such thing as escape in my territory."

The leading black-clad man heard their conversation and couldn't help laughing, "Prince Dog, you are so sure that you won't die here, so I have to send you to hell."

As he spoke, the man rushed towards Wei Qingye with two swords in his hands.
Before Shu Yan could move forward, he was stopped by other black-clad assassins.

The other assassin took advantage of the opportunity and walked towards Nan Zhiyu step by step with a knife in hand.

She was so frightened that she was shaking all over and stepped back. She accidentally tripped over the corpse and fell to the ground.

The beauty's eyes were filled with tears, and she looked pitiful. The man in black smiled and stepped forward to pinch her jaw, "You are so damn good-looking."

"The prince's woman should be played with..."

The man in black groaned suddenly before he could finish his words. He looked down and found a delicate knife stuck in his chest.

The hilt of the knife was held by a white and tender hand. A few drops of blood splashed at the corners of Nan Zhiyu's eyes, making her look both seductive and dangerous.

"When the prince's woman plays with you, it feels like she's going to take your life." The voice was chilling, and the dagger in her hand was pulled out quickly.

Before he could even open his mouth, he fell to the ground and died.

Nan Zhiyu was also frightened to death and fell to the ground gasping for breath.

Seeing that the remaining few people were pestering the prince and Shu Yan and were planning to defeat them one by one, she took a deep breath, jumped on her horse, and rushed towards them.

Rufeng was very fast and knocked the two men in black away.

Wei Qingye finally had the chance to climb onto the horse, "Shuyan, let's go~"

Shu Yan, who was almost exhausted, raised his hand and used the strength given by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to climb onto the horse's back.

The three men rode their horses quickly and the people chasing them soon lost their way.

Nan Zhiyu rode the two of them for a long distance in a panic. She didn't hear any movement behind her, but she didn't dare to relax.

Her tense nerves made it obvious that she was unable to bear it.

Wei Qingye seemed to notice that something was wrong with her expression, so he quickly rode his horse closer and grabbed the reins in her hand, "Nan Jiaojiao, stop."

Nan Zhiyu subconsciously turned her head and looked at him, "Your Highness?"

Wei Qingye quickly dismounted, coaxed her down with a gentle voice, "Nan Jiaojiao, don't be afraid, we are safe now."

Nan Zhiyu's body trembled slightly, and she looked at him with complicated eyes, "Your Highness, I, I killed someone, and my hands are covered in blood." She didn't want the Crown Prince to have a worse impression of her because of this incident, which would be a bit unreasonable.

No matter what, I have to take advantage of this excitement to make His Highness feel more sorry for her.

A flare suddenly sounded in the sky. After Shu Yan saw it, he quickly took out the corresponding flare from his sleeve and fired it.

"Your Highness, it won't be long before Shumo and his men come to pick us up. By then, we will be completely safe."

"Yeah." Wei Qingye used the lining of his robe to wipe the blood off Nan Zhiyu's hands, and whispered, "I'll help you wipe your hands clean. They're not dirty at all."

Nan Zhiyu's gray face was covered with tears. "Your Highness, do you really think that I am a cruel and ruthless woman just because I killed someone? Will you abandon me?"

Every time the little girl encountered such a thing, she was so scared that she started calling herself "I". Wei Qingye felt only distressed and didn't think there was anything wrong with it at all.

"I taught you this riding and archery skill myself. It's for saving your life. How can it be related to cruelty?"

"You saved me. You can be said to be my savior. How can I bear to give you up?"

Amid the Crown Prince's repeated coaxing, Nan Zhiyu slowly closed her eyes.

When she opened her eyes again, she found herself lying on the main couch in the Crown Prince's tent.

Her throat was sore, and before she could get up, she saw Qingdai and Qiucui sleeping on the felt rug beside the couch.

Before she could sit up, she woke up Qingdai.

"My dear, you finally woke up, thank God."

Seeing Qingdai and Qiu Cui so excited, Nan Zhiyu was confused and didn't know what was going on.

"My lord, please drink some water first."

Through Qingdai and Qiu Cui's descriptions, Nan Zhiyu learned that the people who came to carry out the assassination were not from Southern Qin at all, but from North Vietnam who had recently been negotiating with Southern Qin to end the war.

On the surface, they pretended to negotiate peace, but in fact they sent people to infiltrate Southern Qin and assassinate the prince.

This matter had long been reported back to the palace. When the emperor learned about it, he was furious and directly ordered the Shen family army to send troops to defeat North Vietnam.

"How is His Highness now?" Nan Zhiyu asked in a low voice, holding the teacup.

She is the lifesaver of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so why doesn't His Royal Highness show any appreciation at all?
She can't bear the pain of killing someone in vain!

Qiu Cui brought a bowl of warm shredded chicken noodles, "My lady, this is specially prepared for you by His Highness' order."

Nan Zhiyu ate her noodles absentmindedly, "Besides these, does His Highness have anything else to tell you?"

Qingdai nodded, "His Highness said that if you steal paintings again like last time, you will have to wait."

Qiu Cui nodded and said, "My dear, you should just stay here with His Highness."

The woman who had neither status nor money had long lost all her strength and means.

"This is so not worth it!" Nan Zhiyu became angrier and angrier the more she thought about it. She tossed and turned on the couch holding the cup, feeling very regretful.

"What are you doing?" Wei Qingye, who had just opened the curtain and came in, asked with a smile when he saw that she had made a mess of the couch.

Nan Zhiyu stood up with a groan, looked at him with resentment, and said to herself: Your Highness, this stingy guy, he actually came back~
 Zhizhi: I was implicated by the dog prince and was assassinated. I was scared to death... How is it possible? Don't be fooled by my superb acting skills.

  Nan Zhizhi plays with the bloody dagger: I have never been a good person...*
