Knowing that the child's future journey would be extremely difficult, King Tuan took a deep breath and then, in accordance with tradition, asked Princess Yushu to make a heavy decision.
That is to sacrifice all the captives captured from the Qin State to the gods worshipped by the Tuan State.
And this order must be shouted out in public by Princess Yu Shu, who has already grown up.
To show her firm determination to defend Tuan and to be irreconcilable with the enemy.
However, Princess Yu Shu, who was kind-hearted by nature, could not bear to kill nearly a hundred people in one breath. She hesitated for a long time and was unable to give the order.
Seeing Princess Yu Shu hesitate so much that the people below began to whisper, General Jin, who had always had a crush on the princess, hurried forward and shouted to all his compatriots present: "Princess, you are very understanding. I implore you to sacrifice these slaves to our gods!"
Just when everyone below began to cheer and Princess Yu Shu was extremely anxious, a deafening thunder suddenly exploded.
The next moment, everyone was shocked to see that King Tuan, who was sitting on the high platform, suddenly had his head exploded, bringing with it countless brain matter and blood, scattering all over the ground like a broken watermelon.
Then, there was silence, dead silence.
Looking at her father sitting on the seat in disbelief, whose head had completely disappeared, Princess Yu Shu finally reacted and let out a shrill howl before fainting from the shock.
Only the Tuan people who were frightened out of their wits and the Qin captives who were cheering loudly were left.
Well, there's one more person.
That was Chen Hui, who was wearing iron-blooded armor and had turned on the stealth mode.
After putting away the Barrett heavy sniper in his hand, looking at the people around him who were either trembling or laughing, a smug smile slowly emerged on Chen Hui's completely transparent face.
He had arrived at the scene a long time ago and had been admiring Yu Shu's dance. He had to admit that her dance moves were indeed extraordinary enough to captivate the entire Qin court, and her dancing skills were far superior to those of Lu Zhi and Lu Su.
Such extraordinary and stunning dancing skills cannot be shown even at one tenth of their level in TV dramas.
If nothing unexpected happens, it should have been strengthened by the world of "Qin's Moon".
The reason why they wanted to kill King Tuan was, firstly, because they hated him for sacrificing the lives of the people of the Central Plains to the gods, and secondly, to interrupt his plan to send Princess Yu Shu to the Qin State.
After all, there are many real masters in the Qin Emperor's Palace now. Chen Hui asked himself that it is not worth it to go there and act like a hero just for Princess Yu Shu.
So, it’s better to stay in Tuan.
As for why they used gunpowder weapons like the Barrett instead of energy weapons like the Iron Blood Shoulder Cannon, Chen Hui said that this was simply a lack of understanding.
The Iron Blood shoulder cannon is silent, while the Barrett heavy sniper rifle is deafening.
As for what the difference is... Chen Hui looked around as people began to shout "The king was struck to death by lightning", and said that this was the difference.
Can the results of being killed by thunder and being assassinated by others be the same?
It is estimated that the current king's family is in big trouble. After all, being struck to death by lightning in public is a huge sin.
Amen.
Chapter 18: Princess Escapes and the Protagonist Appears
When Princess Yu Shu woke up from her coma, what she saw was her mother's nervous and grief-stricken face.
During the celebration, her husband was inexplicably struck to death by lightning in public, and even his head could not be saved.
And the most crucial thing is that because his death was so sudden and he did not leave any explanation, his three sons are now ready to fight for the throne he left behind.
You know, nomadic people don’t have any system of primogeniture, and they have always believed that the strong are respected.
As for who is the stronger one...it's easy, just fight and you'll know.
Seeing that her three sons had already begun to mobilize troops, no matter how much she tried to persuade them, it was useless. Knowing that a war was inevitable, Queen Tuan could only return to the palace and quietly guard her unconscious daughter.
Then, facing her daughter who had just regained consciousness and was anxiously questioning her, Queen Tuan could only close her eyes in pain. After a moment, she suddenly opened them and said harshly, "Yu Shu, don't say anything! Listen to your mother first!"
"Your father is dead, and your brothers have gone mad. They will do anything for the throne!"
"The Tuan Kingdom is no longer safe. You must leave immediately!"
"Mother..."
"Don't talk! Listen to what your mother says!"
The Queen raised her hand to interrupt Yu Shu and said in a deep voice, word by word, "Your three brothers are about to go to war. I have tried to persuade them, but no one is willing to listen."
"After they decide the winner, I wonder if the victor will let you go."
"Even if they were willing to let you go, Tuan would have already been severely damaged by then. To stabilize their regime, they would definitely send you to the Xiongnu or Rongdi!"
"If this happens, your life will be over!"
Seeing the fear on Princess Yu Shu's face after hearing this, the Queen nodded heavily and said, "Father and Mother have already contacted the Qin Empire and want to send you to be the Emperor's concubine."
"That's a civilized and courteous place, and it's also your only way out now, so you must leave immediately. Do you understand?"
Compared to being sent to barbaric tribes like the Huns, being sent to the Qin Emperor was not something difficult to accept.
Therefore, after understanding the current situation, Princess Yu Shu did not suffer from the pain and entanglement in the TV series at all. She just asked anxiously with a face full of anxiety: "What about you, mother? What are you going to do?"
"I am the queen of Tuan! Yu Shu!"
Queen Tuan replied firmly: "My husband is here, my subjects are here, and I will die here. This is my mission!"
"But you are different, Yu Shu. You have just become an adult and have a bright future. You should not die here."
"Hurry and go to Qin. Only the most powerful person in the world can protect you! You must remember this!"
Yes, the current Queen Tuan no longer has any thoughts about assassinating the Qin Emperor.
After all, after this battle, we don’t even know whether Tuan Kingdom will still exist. What’s the point of losing a daughter?
Even at this moment, Queen Tuan had a vague suspicion in her heart that the reason why her husband was struck to death by lightning in public was because they intended to assassinate the Qin Emperor.
Could it be that the ruler within the Great Wall is really blessed by gods and is destined to be the ruler?
Thinking of this, the queen took a long, deep breath and immediately clapped her hands twice. Then she saw General Jin quickly enter, turned over and bowed, saying, "Greetings to the queen, greetings to the princess."
"What's the situation?" Queen Tuan had already prepared for the worst and asked expressionlessly.
"Your Majesty, the three princes... have already started a war!" Due to his failure to protect the king, General Jin has now lost all his power and can only watch the civil war in the kingdom helplessly.
"I see."
The queen nodded upon hearing this, reached out and pulled Princess Yushu aside, saying, "General Jin, you are the person His Majesty and I trust the most. Now I have an important task for you."
"You must immediately lead your trusted subordinates to escort Yu Shu to the State of Qin and deliver her to the hands of Emperor Ying Zheng."
"This is her only chance to survive, do you understand?"
General Jin has always been in love with the princess and is unwilling to give her to another man.
But at this moment, General Jin was very clear in his mind that Tuanguo might not be able to be saved this time.
If the princess continues to stay here, whether she falls into the hands of her brother or other tribes, she will only end up with a tragic ending worse than death.
And in this world, the only safe place is probably the Qin Emperor's Palace.
As for General Jin himself
Haha, he has lost all his power, and now he can only mobilize more than a hundred confidants. How can they protect a fairy beauty like Yu Shu?
Therefore, General Jin did not risk his life to stop Princess Yu Shu's marriage as he did in the TV series. Instead, he nodded heavily and said, "I obey your command!"
Then, ignoring Princess Yu Shu's unwillingness to struggle, General Jin forcibly dragged her out of the already stormy Tuan Palace, leaving the queen alone here.
Seeing her beloved daughter walking away with tears streaming down her face, and hearing the sounds of fighting gradually rising around her, Queen Tuan couldn't help but close her eyes, tears streaming down her cheeks as she said, "Take care, my daughter. You must live on."
After leaving the princess's bedroom, General Jin did not stop at all. He immediately put Yu Shu on the carriage that had been prepared long ago and took her out of the city quickly.
However, no one knows when the news leaked.
Just as the group arrived in the wilderness and were not too far from the royal city, a group of soldiers rushed out of the royal city. They rushed to the front like lightning and shouted, "Leave the princess behind! Kill everyone else!"
The people who came were all elite knights riding tall horses. There were also General Jin and his female relatives in the team. There was no way to get rid of them.
Therefore, seeing that being caught up was inevitable, General Jin could only pull Princess Yu Shu off the carriage and place her on his horse, saying, "I'm sorry, Princess!"
Next, General Jin and Princess Yu Shu rode on the same horse and rode away at the speed of light.
As for the others who stayed behind, I'm sorry, General Jin can no longer take care of them.
Unfortunately, although the entire large force had been left behind, only a short while later, shouts were heard from the rear again, and they were approaching at a very fast speed.
It's a very simple logic. Even though the horses' strength is almost the same, General Jin was riding two horses, while the one behind was riding one horse. It would be strange if he was not caught up.
The nomadic people have lived on horseback since childhood, and each of them is an expert archer skilled in riding and shooting.
Therefore, when the distance was close, the pursuers behind suddenly drew their bows and arrows and shot straight at General Jin's back.
I can only say that reality is not a TV drama after all, and there are not so many good things for masters of outlining.
So, after just a few arrows, General Jin and the horse under his crotch were all hit by arrows, and he and Princess Yu Shu fell off the horse.
Next, the horse was killed on the spot, General Jin was dying, and Princess Yu Shu could only watch with despair on her face as the pursuers' footsteps gradually approached.
A huge, snow-white creature suddenly jumped out from beside her, staring at the people chasing them with a pair of blood-red eyes that were as big as gems.
That's right, the time is ripe for Chen Hui to make his debut.
Chapter 19 The Heroic Mastermind Saves the Beauty
To be honest, Chen Hui had a very busy day.
First, he killed King Tuan in public, and then ran to the three princes and used the "Soul Transfer Technique" to fan the flames.
Later, when Chen Hui discovered that the queen intended to send Princess Yu Shu away, he deliberately revealed the news to a prince, allowing him to send cavalry to chase her in time.
Next, it is like this.
At this moment, Chen Hui, who had no awareness of being the big boss behind the scenes, slowly walked out from behind the giant snake like a knight who was going to save the princess from the dragon.
He first glanced at Princess Yushu, who was lying on the ground, then turned to look at the Tuan pursuers who were frightened by the giant snake and asked in a serious tone, "What are you doing?"
"You... who are you? How dare you meddle in Tuan's affairs?"
Looking at the behemoth before them, a creature that only appeared in nightmares, the cavalrymen were terrified and pale. They could only shout in a restrained and fierce voice, "We are the men of Prince Tuan. We are here to bring back the princess of our kingdom. Please stay out of our business!"
"Don't believe them!" General Jin, who was already on the verge of death, shouted with his last breath, "These people are traitors. They want to murder the princess. Please save the princess! Please!"
Chen Hui was silent for a moment after hearing this, then he turned his gaze to the frightened Princess Yu Shu and asked softly, "You are the princess, right? Are you willing to go with these people?"
"No! I don't want to!"
Princess Yu Shu reacted suddenly upon hearing this. Knowing this was her only chance of rescue, she immediately took two steps forward, tugged at Chen Hui's clothes, and begged, "I don't want to go with them! Please don't let me go with them!"
Chen Hui nodded, picked up Princess Yu Shu horizontally, and placed her on the giant snake beside him. He stared at the bewildered pursuers and asked softly, "Now that the princess has spoken, do you want to snatch her away, or leave?"
As he spoke, Chen Hui drew out the Chixiao sword with a clang, and swung it down with all his might.
In an instant, a deep mark was suddenly seen in front of the pursuers, and then Chen Hui's deep voice was heard: "Anyone who crosses the line will die! Don't say I didn't warn you!"
"You...how dare you become an enemy of our Tuan!"
"After secretly cursing these background characters for talking so much nonsense, Chen Hui was too lazy to reply. Instead, he reached out and patted the giant snake beside him. Then he saw this guy suddenly swing his tail and blew away all the cavalrymen in front.
Then, the people who were knocked unconscious by the fall dared not say anything more. After getting up from the ground, they ran away as fast as they could.
After all, whether it is a human or a giant snake, it seems that they are not easy to mess with.
After seeing everyone quickly move away, Chen Hui helped Princess Yu Shu down from the giant snake. They walked over to General Jin, who was on his last breath. He bent down to examine him, then shook his head and said, "You're not going to make it. If you have anything else to say, say it now."
"This is... This is Princess Yu Shu from our Tuan."
At this moment, General Jin's mind was already beginning to fade, but he still managed to hold on to his last breath and groaned, "Can you please protect her? Please."
General Jin did not dare to say that he would give Princess Yu Shu to Emperor Qin. After all, he did not know whether the person in front of him was Emperor Qin's enemy, so he could only settle for the next best thing.
Fortunately, the person in front of him is extremely powerful and should be able to protect the princess.
Seeing Yi Xiaochuan's best friend in the TV series now in such a miserable state due to his indirect harm, Chen Hui felt a little uncomfortable. Before the other party could completely die, he nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you, I will protect her. Rest in peace."
"Thank you, thank you." Upon hearing this, General Jin looked deeply at Princess Yu Shu with tears in her eyes, expressed his gratitude to Chen Hui again, then struggled to take his last breath, closed his eyes and passed away.
Watching Princess Yu Shu prostrate herself on General Jin's corpse, weeping uncontrollably, Chen Hui slowly shook his head, then stood up straight. After waiting quietly for a moment, he spoke calmly, "We must leave, Princess, or more pursuers will arrive."
Princess Yu Shu froze upon hearing this. She could only suppress her grief and stood up. She first bowed to General Jin's body, then bowed to Chen Hui and said, "Thank you very much, sir, for your help. Yu Shu is deeply grateful."
As soon as the words fell, before Chen Hui could respond, he saw this stunning beauty suddenly soften and fall backwards without support.
He grabbed the beautiful woman's delicate body and stared at the fairy-like face that Yi Xiaochuan had been dreaming about. He found that Princess Yu Shu had fainted due to exhaustion.
Chen Hui, who was always good at doing good things, could only shake his head helplessly and put the mission target into the living space first, planning to deal with it later.
