Chapter 243 Green Tea Selfish Cousin 12
Chapter 243 Green Tea Selfish Cousin 12
Lianchun Lake is very vast and is the choice of many noble sons and daughters for sightseeing.
Especially now it is early autumn, the temperature is neither too cold nor too hot, the lake scenery is pleasant, and the breeze makes people feel relaxed.
Yan Qizhao looked around coldly, then stood casually in front of the window, thinking about something in his mind.
He will be eighteen in a year, and he can't delay any longer and must get married as soon as possible.
After eliminating those assassins in advance today, he will find an opportunity to get close to Shen Weicang.
A group of masked men suddenly rushed out of a boat on the lake, jumped up and landed on the nearest boats, drew out their shining swords and slashed at anyone they saw.
The lake, which was originally filled with laughter and joy, suddenly rang with screams of fear. Shen Weicang was startled, and Xie Wanheng hugged her comfortingly:
"Don't be afraid, Cang Cang. Stay in the cabin. I'll go out and take a look."
Before he could finish his words, the cabin was suddenly kicked open and two masked men rushed in. Xie Wanheng greeted them with a cold look in his eyes.
He chopped one of them on the arm with his bare hands, grabbed his knife-holding hand and slashed his neck with his backhand, then kicked another man in the back with a swift kick. The man fell to the ground and spit out blood.
Shen Weicang looked at it coldly, took a step back, and glanced sideways at the black snake.
The black snake crawled over and bit the person on the ground on the neck, then it let go in disgust and quickly returned to her side.
I thought I could have some peace and quiet in Chen State, but I didn't expect to encounter such a thing while swimming in the lake.
She was somewhat dissatisfied with Xie Wanheng. Why did she encounter such bad luck when she went out with him?
Xie Wanheng dealt with the two people. Worried that Shen Weicang would be frightened when seeing this bloody scene, he hurried over and grabbed her hand tightly, holding her in his arms:
"Don't be afraid, Cang Cang, I will take you away from here."
He walked to the window and looked out. There were many people fighting with masked men on the lake.
He found a gap, embraced Shen Weicang and jumped out of the cabin, intending to go straight back to the shore.
But their boat was located in the center of the lake, quite a distance from the shore, and soon an assassin discovered the two and chased them relentlessly.
As a last resort, Xie Wanheng could only take Shen Weicang to a boat first. He wanted to go into the cabin to check if it was safe. He said with some surprise:
"Your Highness Prince Yi."
Yan Qizhao was sitting at the table sipping tea. He had sensed something when two people got on the boat, but he didn't expect that they were Xie Wanheng and Shen Weicang.
His eyes were fixed on the woman in the goose yellow dress, his pupils shrank slightly, and his heart was beating wildly.
Behind Xie Wanheng, four or five assassins had already caught up. When they saw the people in the cabin, they immediately shouted, "Yan Qizhao is here!"
Without time to think, Yan Qizhao's eyes turned cold and he threw the teacup in his hand out, and the assassin raised his sword to chop it away.
Tea and broken porcelain pieces splashed everywhere. Shen Weicang subconsciously broke free from Xie Wanheng's hand around her waist and pulled him in front of her.
The cabin of the ship was not spacious. As Xie Wanheng was fighting with several others, the ship began to shake violently, and the tables and chairs also swayed.
Just as she pulled Xie Wanheng in front of her, someone else grabbed her hand.
She looked up and saw that it was the Prince Yi whom Xie Wanheng had just mentioned.
Xie Wanheng struggled with the assassin and had to let go of Shen Weicang's hand. Yan Qizhao immediately held her in his arms. Seeing that she was a little dazed, he thought she was frightened and comforted her softly:
"Don't be afraid, young lady. My guards will be here soon and will not let you get hurt."
As soon as he finished speaking, the assassin who was held back by Xie Wanheng saw that he could not get close to Yan Qizhao, so he threw the dagger in his hand directly. The sharp dagger attacked the two men with great force.
Xie Wanheng wanted to stop them, but he didn't have the hands free. He kicked an assassin to the ground and was about to turn around to protect Shen Weicang.
But the assassin who brought the news just now attracted a large number of masked men. Even though Yan Qizhao's guards had rushed back, they were still unable to cope with the situation.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Shen Weicang planned to push Yan Qizhao out to protect him.
But she immediately realized that this was not the State of Yan. If Yan Qizhao could survive and pursue her, it would be a trouble.
She had no choice but to hide to the side, but Yan Qizhao held her right hand tightly and prevented her from moving far.
She gritted her teeth in anger and was about to let the black snake bite Yan Qizhao to death. After all, she couldn't be blamed since Tan Yuan's snake had bitten the prince of Chen to death.
Yan Qizhao, however, pulled her back into his arms with his arm, and the dagger pierced directly into his back, causing him to groan in pain.
"Your Highness!"
When Yan Qizhao's men saw that he was injured, they attacked more ruthlessly. After the assassin in this cabin was dealt with, a large number of officers and soldiers also rushed over.
Xie Wanheng walked over quickly and saw Yan Qizhao holding Shen Weicang tightly, with dark blood oozing from the wound on his back. His face suddenly changed.
He finally understood why there were so many assassins in Lianchun Lake today. It turned out that it was Yan Qizhao who caused the trouble.
But it didn't matter that Yan Qizhao caused them to be hunted by the assassin, but it was different when he landed on Yan Qizhao's boat and lured the assassin over, causing Yan Qizhao to be injured and poisoned.
Yan Qizhao was already somewhat unconscious, but he still held the person in his arms tightly: "It's okay, but the news of my injury must not be spread. I'm afraid I have to stay in Xie's house to recuperate."
He looked at Shen Weicang weakly: "I'm glad the girl is okay."
Shen Weicang: "......"
She felt that His Royal Highness Prince Yi was sick. They could have both avoided each other, but he insisted on pulling her along.
Was he saying this to remind himself that he had saved her?
Is it necessary for him to save her? !
Shen Weicang raised his hand to try to break free from him, but he was held tighter, causing his guards to exclaim, "Your Highness, please do not move again!"
Finally, when Yan Qizhao was completely unconscious, his hands were still tightly holding Shen Weicang. She had to use a lot of effort to break free. She really wanted to roll her eyes.
Xie Wanheng immediately stepped forward to look him up and down: "Cang Cang, you are not hurt, right?"
Shen Weicang shook her head, her face looking a little unhappy. In order to hide her impatience, she pretended to be frightened and said:
"Wan Heng, let's go back quickly. I'm so scared."
Xie Wanheng hurriedly hugged her: "Okay, don't be afraid, we will go home now."
"Second Master Xie," Mo Yu stood in front of the two men with a cold face, "The news of our prince's injury must not be spread to others. He needs to use Xie's mansion to recuperate."
Not only can the news not be spread to others, but he has to recuperate in someone else's house. Shen Weicang muttered in his heart that this Prince Yi doesn't seem to be very smart. If he doesn't die in this attack, he will die sooner or later.
It would have been better if the black snake had bitten him to death.
The boat quickly docked, and before getting off the boat, Shen Weicang heard Tan Yuan's voice: "Cang Cang."
She looked up and saw that it was Tan Yuan standing on the shore, reaching out to her: "You are not hurt, right? Let me see."
Then, he said to Mo Yu:
"Just let your prince go to my house to recuperate. Something happened in the Xie Mansion, and it's been very chaotic recently, which is not conducive to his recuperation."
Mo Yu refused without hesitation: "But His Highness has ordered..."
"If he wakes up and wants to blame me, I will take full responsibility," Tan Yuan held Shen Weicang's hand, his expression indifferent, but with an indescribable pressure, "Just send him to my house."
They dared not disobey Yan Qizhao's order, but after Tan Yuan said this, Qingyu asked another question: "Excuse me, Imperial Master, what happened in the General's Mansion?"
Tan Yuan's expression was a little subtle: "You can find out if you ask around."
