Chapter 228 An Unexpected Incident (Part Two) (1/2)
The headman of the secret guards was a middle-aged man. He was silent for a while before he said, ”His Highness said we must protect your highness with our lives.”
Yun Shang's face was pale with fright after several hours' running and scare. After a while, she laughed and pulled out the dagger from her boot, placing it against her neck. ”If anything happens to father and mother, I'll die here. I'll wait and see how you explain it to Prince Jing.” I'm good at martial arts. I can protect myself. Just go and find His Majesty and Lady Jin.”
The secret guards looked up at Yun Shang. After a while, the middle-aged man nodded and waved at the people behind him, and the secret guards disappeared in front of Yun Shang.
Yun Shang sighed. If Ning Qian hadn't pretended to be the Empress in the palace and she had taken her revenge and asked all her people in the Jinluan Hall, she wouldn't have had to threaten Prince Jing's people like this.
The hidden guard looked around and did not find the traces of Emperor Ning and Lady Jin.
Yun Shang continued to walk forward. After another two forests, she would arrive at Laifeng City. What happened to father and mother? Yun Shang gradually calmed down. She frowned. If things went on as usual, their troops would have already passed the woods. But no trace of war could be found in the woods. Did father and mother come back to Laifeng City again?
Yun Shang then called two shadow guards to Laifeng City, and the rest followed her.
They walked for about two hours and arrived at a forest. This time, before they entered the forest, the secret guards were on their guard. ”Your Highness, there's a sound in the forest ahead. There are many people.”
Yun Shang shivered all over. She was about to walk towards the woods when a secret guard stopped her. ”Be careful, Your Highness.”
Yun Shang was worried, but she didn't lose her mind. She knew that if she rushed in, and if Xia Houjing and Li Jingyan were there, they wouldn't let her go.
She couldn't give them any more chance to threaten her mother or Prince Jing.
Yun Shang meditated for a while and said, ”I have given up my horse. Let's go into the forest together. It's difficult to hide ourselves in such a chaotic place with so many things covered.”
Then she jumped off the horse and went straight into the forest. The dark guard followed her in a hurry.
She crept into the forest through the grass. The sounds became clearer in the forest. There were sounds of killing, weapons colliding, and someone falling.
