Yue Chanjuan's gaze scanned the surroundings; she was looking for Tuoba Fei's figure. That man had nearly killed her in the process of scaring off the Xumi race.
When thousands of horses were galloping closer to her, the shadow of death had already completely enveloped her. Where was that man?
She remembered the Huns who had carried her in their arms, their backs and their bodies, protecting her with their lives. They had only met a few times and spoken very little.
”Presumably, if I didn't have the protection of crying out loud, I would have been killed or crippled if I had fallen into the ravine, right?”
Yue Chanjuan did not dare to think any further. The place she had fallen onto just happened to have many sharp rocks in it. Even a strong and sturdy person like Huhe Xie had almost died there and then.
Unable to find Tuoba Fei's figure in the middle of the chaotic battlefield, Yue Chan lazily closed the window. She didn't want to see too much blood and life disappear.
From another window, ZhongAo Shuang looked out. There were warriors with white dogs surrounding him, surrounding the carriage. He didn't have to worry about anything.
”Why is it like this? Why do I always feel there's something wrong with this? From the very beginning, they had been travelling from King Lou. Could it be that what happened to King Lou was not an accident? If that's the case, for the princess to come to the Jiuquan to pay respects and even announce that she has brought all of her dowry, could it be on purpose? ”
Zhong Ao Shuang's heart was colder than the cold winter night wind. If that was the case, then what kind of situation did she have to put the princess in?
Turning back to look at Yue Chanjuan, she closed her eyes slightly. There was not a single ripple on her impeccable appearance. It was as if everything that had happened was very natural.
”That day, when I went to Great Wan City to seek an audience with Dan Yu and Prince Xian of the Left, I didn't see any of them. When I returned to the city, I heard that Dan Yu had personally come to the camp. According to He Yaohui, the princess must have already seen him in the city and intentionally lured him into the army camp. What exactly had happened in the Great Wen City? What did you say to the princess that day? ”
Zhong Ao Shuang discovered that he knew nothing about this matter. Although she had asked Yue Chanjuan tactfully afterwards, she did not say anything.
Silently, he closed the window, closed the cold wind outside, and lowered his head in thought.
The night passed quickly, and the people of the Great Moon Sect came in full fury. However, they retreated quickly, and without waiting for the sun to rise, they quietly retreated as if they had never appeared before.
”Why did Prince Xian of the Left retreat so quickly?”
”They don't have many people. I'm afraid Prince Xian of the Left hasn't arrived yet.”
”How would the princess know?”
”I'm guessing that if they had enough troops, they wouldn't have let such a good opportunity go. Judging from last night's raid, there shouldn't be many people here, not as many as Chou Rong, so they took advantage of the time it took for the surprise attack to take place and retreated. Perhaps in a few days, more of Big Moon's forces will arrive. ”
”The princess is wise, and this subject is far from being stupid.”
Zhong Ao Shuang felt that the longer he was together with Yue Chanjuan, the more surprises she brought him. He had never known that Yue Chanjuan also knew military tactics and martial arts, but every time she brought him surprises and surprises.
”You are too kind, Mr Zhong.”
