Chapter 314 Overlord Jiaojiao! (One more)
A masked assassin drew his sword to face each other, but was pierced in the shoulder by a flying arrow close to the carriage, and the huge force overturned him.
He hit the tree hard and fell to the ground in embarrassment, his head dizzy and unconscious.
The coachman was hit by an arrow, and he has fallen down long ago.
The horse was frightened and ran forward in a panic.
This is a section of the mountain road, and you’re about to run down the cliff!
”Protect the princess!”
The accompanying guard shouted.
However, they were stopped by a wave of assassins falling from the sky, and the two sides fought fiercely.
”Sit down!” Gu Jiao let go of Princess Rui and put her hand on the armrest of the car wall, ”Hold on!”
”Hmm!” Princess Rui nodded nervously, her heart touched her throat, but she didn't lose the chain and didn't mess with Gu Jiao at the critical juncture.
She firmly grasped the handrail.
Gu Jiao opened the curtain and walked out, sitting on the outer seat, holding the reins with both hands.
It’s not that I never thought about jumping the carriage, but in that case, Princess Rui’s child might not be able to keep it, so she could only try to stop the carriage.
is getting closer and closer to the cliff.
The horse rushed forward like crazy.
Gu Jiao jumped up and rode on one of the horses. Her legs clamped the horse's belly and tightened its stiffness. The horse was strangled and raised its front hoofs. The whole horse stood upright, trying to throw Gu Jiao off.
However, Gu Jiao stubbornly hugged it, the strength in her hand remained undiminished.
Finally, the horse was surrendered. After a few hissing sounds, the horse stopped breathing heavily. At this time, the carriage swept away due to inertia, the wheel was knocked away by the rock, and half of the carriage hung over the cliff.
crunch——
The carriage swayed on the edge of the cliff.
”Ah—” Princess Rui Huarong paled. She was sitting in the half of the carriage that was hanging off the cliff. If she accidentally fell down with the carriage, she fell to pieces!
”do not move!”
Gu Jiao said.
Princess Rui looked forward to her, but after listening to Gu Jiao's words, she still tried her best not to tremble.
Gu Jiao cautiously walked over to Princess Rui. She gently opened the curtain and reached out to Princess Rui, who was full of horror: ”Don't be afraid, give me your hand.”
Princess Rui stretched out her hand tremblingly, but as soon as she moved the carriage, she shook violently, and she put her hand back in fright.
Fear and tears filled her eyes: ”I...I dare not...”
Gu Jiao calmly said: ”It's okay, I stepped on the carriage, and you walk over slowly.”
Princess Rui glanced at Gu Jiao's feet, and saw that she had really stepped on the floor of the carriage. Then she gritted her teeth and mustered her courage to move towards Gu Jiao bit by bit.
Every time she moved a bit, she could feel the carriage sliding down a bit.
”I...I'm afraid...”
Her tears slipped down.
Gu Jiao said softly: ”Don't be afraid, I will hold you.”
Princess Rui looked at Gu Jiao's steadfast eyes, great courage surged in her heart, she turned her mind and took a step towards Gu Jiao.
However, just as Gu Jiao grabbed her fingertips, an arrow flew in the air and swiped past Gu Jiao's cuff!
”Hiss——” Gu Jiao gasped, her palms slipped, and Princess Rui's fingertips slipped out.
Princess Rui fell back to the end of the carriage, and the entire carriage plunged down a lot!
Gu Jiao grabbed the shaft of the car with one hand, and violently drew a dagger with the other hand and stabbed it **** the rock on the hillside.
Princess Rui feels that most of the carriage is suspended.
She watched Gu Jiao desperately grabbing the carriage, her body seemed to be torn apart, tears came from her eyes: ”Miss Gu...let go...you will also fall...”
Gu Jiao didn’t let go: ”You come here... Grab my hand... Hold tight...”
咻!
Another arrow was shot on the carriage, and the huge impact put a lot of pressure on Gu Jiao.
And this is not the most dangerous. The most dangerous is that there are more and more arrows. Several of them have been shot at Gu Jiao's side, and I don't know which one will hit her.
”Girl Gu...”
”There is no time, hurry up!”
咻!
Another arrow flew, and shot off a strand of blue silk from Gu Jiao.
Princess Rui gritted her teeth in tears, exhausted all her strength and courage, and rushed towards Gu Jiao!
She hugged Gu Jiao's arm.
Almost at the same moment, Gu Jiao released the shaft of the car and grabbed one of her wrists instead.
Without Gu Jiao's pulling, the carriage fell rapidly towards the cliff, and Princess Rui closed her eyes with a cry.
She did not fall, she was caught by Gu Jiao.
Just as Gu Jiao was about to pull her up, several masked assassins approached Gu Jiao and killed her.
Said it was too late and then soon, a long sword sprang out and stabbed one of the assassins in the heart.
The assassins noticed something was wrong, but did not meet the enemy, but continued to rush towards Gu Jiao.
The owner of the long sword flew up and stood in front of Gu Jiao.
The two sides fought fiercely, and Gu Jiao hurriedly dragged Princess Rui up.
Princess Rui had already frightened Liushen Wuzhu, and when she came up, she collapsed in Gu Jiao's arms, looked at the man and called King Ning, and then fainted with black eyes.
turned out to be King Ning.
Gu Jiao hugged Princess Rui and looked back at each other.
At this time, three of the assassins had been beheaded by King Ning, and one of them flew away and escaped.
King Ning gave an order: ”Catch him! Want to live!”
Not far away, the guards of Prince Ning’s Mansion chased in the direction where the assassin fled.
King Ning wiped the blood on the sword with the kerchief, inserted the long sword back into the scabbard, came to Gu Jiao and Princess Rui, and asked, ”Are you all right?”
Gu Jiao raised her eyes to look at him.
Wang Ning wears a dark blue brocade robe with a palace tie around his waist. He is tall and straight, he is long and vigorous. He has clear eyes and a vigorous and upright body. The facial features are three-pointers like noble concubine Zhuang and five-pointers like the emperor.
She is the prince Gu Jiao has seen most resembling the emperor. Not only is she similar in appearance, but she also has the shadow of the emperor in her demeanor.
King Ning is twenty-six this year, and his eldest prince is three years old. He has the heroic spirit of two decades, and the calmness of thirty.
Gu Jiao retracted her gaze and gave Princess Rui a pulse.
Princess Rui's pulse is not serious, but she has a short temper and fainted too much. Gu Jiao said, ”It's okay, I'll be fine after a while.”
Ning Wang breathed a sigh of relief.
Ning Wang did not ask Gu Jiao’s identity, but his eyes were distinct and no stranger.
He knows her.
Gu Jiao looked at him weirdly.
She doesn't remember they met.
Ning Wang smiled and said: ”When the Ministry of Industry's yamen had an accident, I went to the scene and saw the girl rescuing the wounded.”
Gu Jiao let out a cry.
The accident was too serious. She only paid attention to the injured, but not the uninjured.
Ning Wang said: ”The girl was frightened. Where are the girl and Princess Rui going? I'll let you see you off.”
The guards of Royal Palace of Rui had all been beheaded by the assassins, and the carriage was gone.
Gu Jiao said: ”We just came from the temple and we plan to go back.”
King Ning paused, and asked: ”Is the girl accompanied Princess Rui to visit the concubine empress?”
Gu Jiao nodded.
Ning Wang frowned, and hurriedly ordered the guards: ”You guys, hurry up and go to the temple to see if there is anything wrong with the concubine!”
”Yes!”
Several guards responded and hurried to the nunnery.
King Ning said to Gu Jiao: ”I'll let people take you back.”
Gu Jiao suddenly stopped him: ”Why did King Ning appear here?”
Ning Wang was chilled by her sharp eyes: ”Do you doubt this king?”
Gu Jiao sternly said: ”You appeared too timely.”
Ning Wang smiled helplessly: ”Girl, I'll be a little later, you two are dead, I want to hurt you, so it's fine if you don't show up. What's more.”
He glanced at Princess Rui who was unconscious in Gu Jiao's arms, ”She is the third princess.”
Who does not know that King Rui is a member of King Ning's line, is King Ning mad with his princess?
Ning Wang said: ”It was the father who was worried about the concubine and the empress, and asked me to go to the temple for him.”
This is the truth, he was indeed ordered by the emperor to visit Princess Jing in the temple.
Concubine Jing was the emperor's adoptive mother. The news of the emperor's assassination spread, and she would be worried and sad.
This was not only considered by King Rui and his wife, but the emperor immediately thought of the Queen Mother in Antang when he saw the seriously ill queen mother, and then sent King Ning to take a special trip for him.
Gu Jiao snorted, this matter is easy to confront, Ning Wang should not lie.
So the assassination has nothing to do with King Ning.
Who would it be then?
The other party seems to be coming for Princess Rui, but it cannot be ruled out that he is here to kill her.
King Ning gave the carriage to Gu Jiao and Princess Rui, and rode a horse to the temple.
Gu Jiao sends Princess Rui back to the Royal Palace.
