Just as the blade was about to touch her, she was suddenly bounced off by an invisible barrier.

The assassins were stunned by this incredible scene and forgot to continue their attack.

Yimei herself was stunned.

She doesn't understand what just happened?

Why does the assassin's knife suddenly change direction in mid-air?

The atmosphere froze at this moment.

Before Yimei could understand the reason, she was already rushing to her feet under the urging of survival instinct!

The assassins suddenly came back to their senses and immediately chased after them with their knives.

The two sides launched a life-and-death pursuit in the silent and dark streets.

Yimei ran and shouted for help.

However, she spoke the Qiandao dialect, and even if the people living nearby heard it, they could not understand what she was shouting at all.

Yimei ran as fast as she could, but her speed was still not as fast as those vicious assassins.

She clearly felt the footsteps behind her getting closer and closer. It seemed to be a life-threatening blade from hell, which made her heart beat wildly, and her fear climbed to the extreme. In the end, there was only despair and helplessness.

She didn't want to die, she didn't want to die in a foreign country in such a confused way.

Who will save her?

At this moment, a hand with well-defined joints suddenly stretched out from the side, grabbed Yimei's arm, and dragged it hard!

Unprepared, Yimei was dragged into the dark alley next to her.

When she came back to her senses, she found that she had been dragged into a courtyard gate. Through the dim night, she could barely see the person who was holding her, a tall and tall black-clothed young man.

This person is Chu Jian!

He closed the courtyard door silently.

When he saw that Yimei was about to speak, he immediately reached out and covered her mouth, blocking all her voices.

The girl's warm breath sprayed into his palm, making him a little uncomfortable.

But he soon put the discomfort behind him.

Because there was a rush of footsteps outside the courtyard gate.

The assassins are catching up!

Yimei was so frightened that she didn't dare to move any more, and let the boy's hand cover her lips.

She froze in place, her hands and feet were cold, her dark brown pupils trembled slightly from fear, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

Through the thin courtyard door, she could clearly hear the voices outside.

The group of assassins outside searched the entire alley carefully, but found no trace of the third princess.

In desperation, someone couldn't help but ask.

"We obviously saw her running in here, why did she disappear?"

Another person answered: "There are several families in this alley. Maybe the third princess hid in other people's homes. Why don't we search all of them?"

When Yimei heard this, she almost stopped breathing.

She wanted to remind the teenager in front of her to change to a hiding place before the assassins came over.

But her lips were tightly covered, and she couldn't make a sound at all.

She didn't dare to struggle too hard, for fear of making a noise to alarm the vicious assassins outside, so she could only raise her hand and tug at the boy's sleeve, signaling him to let go.

However, Chu Jian ignored her.

He remained motionless, ignoring what the group of assassins said outside.

It wasn't until the assassins really started to search the nearby houses one by one that Chu Jian felt a little nervous.

He stared at the closed courtyard gate, raised his other hand and put it on the hilt of the sword at his waist, ready to draw his sword to meet the enemy at any time.

The assassins began their search from the innermost house.

They forcibly broke the courtyard door, rushed in and found that the courtyard was empty and no one lived in it.

After a quick search, they found no trace of the third princess, so they immediately moved to the next house.

This family lives in a family of four.

The male owner tried to resist, but was stunned by the assassins, his wife was so frightened that she screamed, and the two children burst into tears.

These voices were right next door, only a wall away from where Yimei and Chu Jian were.

Chu Jian frowned.

He let go of Imi and whispered to her.

"I'm going to divert those assassins, you take the opportunity to escape."

Yimei couldn't understand Dasheng's words, and Chu Jian's words fell into her ears, no different from Tianshu.

She looked blankly at Chu Jian and drew out his saber.

Chu Jian intends to climb over the wall to save people.

He couldn't let those assassins hurt innocent people.

Yimei quickly pulled his sleeve and asked in a voice as thin as a mosquito.

"Where are you going?"

Chu Jian looked down at her.

She looked up at him too.

The two stared at each other, staring at each other.

Neither could understand what the other was saying.

Only then did Chu Jian remember that there was a language barrier between himself and the third princess.

This is how to do?

The cries in the next courtyard grew louder and louder.

Chu Jian couldn't bear it any longer.

He threw off Yimei's hand directly, and said to save people first!

Just as he used the light power to jump up the courtyard wall, there was a rush of hooves in the distance.

Standing on the courtyard wall, Chu Jian looked at the sound and saw a group of officers and soldiers rushing towards this side on horses!

That team of officers and soldiers all carried weapons and held torches in their hands. It was initially estimated that there were more than 20 people, which was more than enough to deal with this group of assassins.

Chu Jian immediately gave up his plan to save people.

He crouched down and hid his figure in the darkness.

The assassin in charge of taking the wind found the group of officers and soldiers, and immediately shouted to the accomplices in the courtyard.

"The officers and soldiers are here! Hurry up!"

The assassins immediately stopped rummaging through the boxes and ran out in a swarm.

When they ran to the alley, they happened to collide face-to-face with the menacing group of officers and soldiers.

The two sides fought without saying a word.

Of the seventeen assassins, two ran away in the end, and the remaining fifteen were determined to lose their lives, so they ended their lives neatly.

A brawl came to an end.

The family of four next door was sent to the hospital by officers and soldiers.

Chu Jian jumped off the courtyard wall and booed Yimei.

Yimei pursed her lips and didn't move.

Until all the noises outside disappeared.

Only then did Chu Jian push open the courtyard door.

He probed out and looked out, the box was quiet and empty.

Chu Jian turned back and said to Yimei.

"Let's go."

Yimei looked at him blankly.

Chu Jian scratched his head, then gestured with both hands, telling her to go.

Yimei Lianchai figured out what he meant.

The two walked out of the alley in the dark and went straight to the Royal Palace.

At night, Luo Yechen was sleeping soundly with his daughter-in-law in his arms, when he was suddenly woken up, and immediately became angry.

He shouted at the door: "No matter who they are, let them go! Don't disturb this king's good dream!"

The butler stood outside the door, biting his head and continuing.

"My lord, the person here is Yu Linwei. He said that he came under the order of the noble concubine, and there is a very important matter for you and the princess to help."

Now let alone a noble concubine, even if the emperor came, Luo Yechen would not buy it.
