135 Ambushed (1/2)

Prince Lu Wei closed his eyes and steadied his breathing. He pretended to be sleeping, but his senses were awake.

As the carriage went further away from Da Cheng's territory, Prince Lu Wei was starting to get anxious. He was left alone, now that he had departed with the guards. Prince Lu Wei knew that he needed to begin to be wary of his surrounding. Since his brother wanted to harm him, Ambassador Nian or anyone around him could take their chance to hurt him.

Since he had decided to leave Da Cheng, there was no one else he could rely on. Prince Lu Wei could only hope that the people sent by his grandmother will help him escape soon.

The carriage continued to move. After ten minutes, the scenery started to change. There were no longer shady trees around them. The landscape changed to green grassland. They will have to continue and travel across the plains for almost an hour before they arrive at a small town in Eastern Zhou.

According to the plan, the people sent by his grandmother should help him escape before they arrived at the nearest town.

Just as his mind was preoccupied with his plan to escape, the carriage made an abrupt stop.

Prince Lu Wei opened his eyes and looked at Ambassador Nian. ”Have we arrived?” he pretended that he had just woke up from his nap.

The ambassador did not answer. He looked out the window and immediately tensed.

”What's wrong?” Prince Lu Wei asked.

The coachman turned around. ”Your Highness. A group of men appeared suddenly and stopped our carriage.”

The Prince looked out the window and saw a group of men circling the carriage. His eyes narrowed as he looked at those men as he thought whether those men were his ally or opponent. Just as he pondered upon the question, the men started to launch an attack towards the Qian Rong's guards.

”Your Highness, Ambassador Nian, we're under attack. Don't come out! I will try to escape from here,” the coachman said. As soon as the coachman finished, the horses neighed, and the carriage lunged forward.

Prince Lu Wei held on the side to stabilize himself.
