Ananda woke up from the coma. He first felt a burning pain in his shoulder. He was strangled by a hand on his neck. He had difficulty breathing. A man's arrogant laughter rang in his ears.
"Haha... Prince of Dachu, I didn't expect you to come so soon! Sure enough, you shouldn't let that lucky girl go soft-hearted!" The man's voice was slightly regretful.
"Let her go!" The cold baritone voice was still calm, but it was like a bottomless deep pool containing an indescribable coldness and killing intent, which was even more unbearable than the chill in early spring.
Hearing the familiar voice, she was shocked. She squinted her eyes and looked around. She happened to see the tower not far away. It seemed that she had just left the city. What made her palpitate was that the knight sitting on the horse under the city tower was dressed in a brocade fox fur coat and a black cloak. He was tall and resolute, proud and resolute. He was majestic in the cold spring sun, but he was also full of evil spirits. The serious face remained the same, only the pair of eyes that should have been quiet and deep were beating with indescribable flames, making one's heart palpitate.
She looked at the man who was about to bow to them not far away, and almost forgot her current situation. However, soon, the strength of the big hand holding her neck made her cough uncontrollably.
"Are you awake?" The man who kidnapped her looked down at her in surprise, with a strange smile on his lips, and he said, "I didn't expect King Su of Dachu to find out that you were missing so soon! Look! Come on, he really dotes on you, and has placed strict protection measures around you! Tsk, it’s just a woman, as for?!”
His voice was a bit contemptuous, as if he really looked down on a man who took such painstaking efforts for a woman.
Ananda breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, no matter who Chu Baning arranged for her to secretly guard, she just wanted to thank him for his care and love, and understood why he appeared so quickly. She thought that he should have received the news in a hurry, so he only brought a few of his personal guards out, and there were no guards from Tongcheng. And the city gate behind him has been closed, it seems that it is his own arrangement.
"My lord, you go first, this subordinate and Saku are separated!" A Duo's voice sounded.
Ananda was half sitting in a carriage at this time, half of her body was imprisoned in the arms of the man, and the hand that was pinching her neck made her have to lift her head slightly so as not to feel too uncomfortable. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the carriage, and A Duo stood vigilantly beside him holding a scimitar, his demeanor was determined to risk his life for it. And there was a strange man at the side, probably that "Sagu". From time to time there was a hissing sound from the back of the carriage, and there should be several people on horseback, who were subordinates of the North Vietnamese royal man.
"Don't worry, let me see what the prince of Dachu is capable of!" The man's voice was full of arrogance, as if he didn't pay attention to the opponent in front of him. Then he showed his white teeth to the man on the horse not far away, and said loudly: "My lord, have you made up your mind? Do you want me, Luo Kui, or this woman? Hehe, actually, It’s just a woman, just kill her and find her again! Prince of Dachu, do you think I’m right?”
When Ananda heard the name "Duo Luo Kui", he knew in his heart that it was Du Luo Kui, the seventh son of the King of Beiyue. However, when he heard the following words of contempt for women, Ananda was annoyed in his heart: This is not the world of bluffs. Without women, can you be born? And his provocative and tentative words made Ananda worried for a while.
Sure enough, when Ananda saw the calmer face and fiery eyes of the prince on the horse, he had an illusion in his heart that he was going to be burned by him.
"Duluo Kui, how do you let her go?" Chu Ba Ning asked calmly, his voice carried a bit of the natural power and aloofness of the superiors of the Heavenly Kingdom. Even when he was threatened, he was so proud that it was hard to bend.
Du Luokui was overjoyed, but he burst out laughing, "Prince of Dachu, although it was only the first time we met, I have to say that you have failed. A man stands between heaven and earth and has the ambition to rise to the clouds. Tsk tsk!" Du Luokui pretended to shake his head and sighed, as if admiring the other party's expression, and then said: "Let your people go back to the city, and don't stop us from leaving. When we arrive in Heishui City safely, we will naturally let you go." Your princess!"
Chu Baning looked at him coldly, then snorted coldly and said, "Du Luokui, do you think this king is as brave and foolhardy as you? Idiot!"
That contemptuous contempt and straightforward words from above are too poignant! As the seventh son of the King of North Vietnam, Du Luokui is famous for his cunning and ruthlessness in the royal court. He is one of the most satisfied successors of the King of North Vietnam and the future lord of the grassland. No one dares to say that he is a fool! And this prince successfully provoked him!
"Hehe, Chu Baning, you can use your tongue now, but I don't mind breaking this woman's neck." Du Luokui said with a smirk, and tightened his hand a little bit.
Ananda showed a distressed expression, holding the hand strangling his neck with both hands, knowing that he still had some strength, just to use her to threaten Chu Baning. Ananda bit her lip and looked at the man in the distance. She didn't know how he was feeling at the moment, but she felt that she had to save herself! A woman who does nothing but waits for a man to save her is definitely a sb! She can't wait!
Suddenly, A Duo let out an exclamation, and something came through the air.
"Someone sneak attack, protect the Lord!!"
Ananda knew that this was the right time, and taking advantage of the sudden sneak attack to attract everyone's minds, he touched a silver hairpin on his head with difficulty, pulled it off, and held the silver hairpin tightly. Vigorously poking the sharp end of the silver hairpin into Du Luokui's abdomen from the waist. Du Luokui originally wanted to deal with the man in black who was ambushing beside him, but he never expected that he would be hurt again by the woman he despised.
When the pain came, Du Luokui's face was grim, and he couldn't believe that the same woman could hurt him again...
Du Luokui hated him so much that he wanted to strangle the woman who hurt him again and again regardless of his injuries! Just as he was about to tighten his strength and break her neck, suddenly the sound of the arrow string breaking through the air made him have to dodge the deadly arrow first.
Anan couldn't care less about feeling uncomfortable, and saw that the man in black who suddenly attacked was Chu Baning's hidden guard, knowing that if he didn't run at this time, there would be no chance, so when Du Luokui was hurt by her and let go, he shot Grabbed hard, grabbed the clothes on his shoulders, and threw him out with an over-the-shoulder throw.
Du Luokui fell to the ground with a muffled sound.
Coincidentally at this moment, an arrow piercing through the air hit Durokui's position just now. If it hadn't been for Ananda's throw over his shoulder, the arrow should have hit Durokui.
"Master!"
The voices of A Duo and Sagu sounded, but they were blocked by the dark guards in black. They could only watch helplessly as their great master was thrown out by a petite woman in a strange posture. During this period, not only A Duo and others were dumbfounded, but even the guards brought by Chu Baning also had incredible expressions on their faces.
Ananda was a little guilty, he knew who shot the arrow, and knew that he had ruined the prince's good deed, so he secretly complained, but his body reacted very quickly, he broke away from Du Luokui's restraint, turned around and walked towards the gate of the city. She ran in the opposite direction, but she was injured and choked before, and her strength had not recovered, so she was not running fast.
Du Luokui quickly stood up straight, covering the wound on his abdomen with his hands and glaring at the woman who repeatedly hurt him.
"I'm going to kill you!"
Du Luokui's eyes were red, his face was ferocious, and there was unspeakable hatred in his eyes, he wished to kill her on the spot. That's right, for a future lord of the grassland to be kicked, poked a hole in his testicles and thrown out by a helpless woman, it really hurts a man's heart.
Before Du Luokui's voice fell, he raised his hand towards the girl who was running towards the city gate, only to see a flash of cold light, and a dagger in his sleeve stabbed away—
"Ananda!"
Ananda heard his frightened and angry voice breaking the calm, and also heard the sound of the wind and something breaking through the air. Looking up, he saw the man riding the horse leaning down slightly, and the cloak on his body rolled out with the wind. A wave arc, hunting in mid-air, and the arrow in his hand shot towards her...
She didn't know why the arrow shot at herself, but she couldn't stop.
There was only a slight sound of "ding", she took the opportunity to turn her head, and happened to see the arrow protruding from her shoulder, deflecting a piercing dagger in the wrong direction. He strode forward with all his strength on his heavy legs. Suddenly, she heard A Duo's roar, and felt the sharpness of the knife's edge on her back, which made her feel shivering, and then there was a thrust from her back, and she fell forward.
When Ananda closed his eyes and was about to meet the unlucky angel wrestling with his face on the ground, his waist suddenly tightened, and his whole body flew up, and then fell into a familiar embrace. A pair of powerful arms held her tightly. He hugged her tightly, as if he wanted to rub her into his body!
Smelling the familiar scent of the man, she relaxed.
"what-"
Suddenly, there was a terrified scream, and Ananda turned his head to look over, and saw the horse's front hooves raised into the air, neighing, and then the two hooves stepped heavily on A Duo, who had been injured by the arrow in front of him. Blood splattered all over his body...
Her head was pressed into his warm chest by a big hand. In addition to the whistling wind, there were all kinds of sounds of swords and swords in her ears, and the most profound and clear thing for her was A Duo's screams that stopped abruptly The sound, and those blood-colored eyes that were about to explode, were full of resentment towards her...
"You killed the king's most loyal subordinate, and the king wants you to pay the price."
Du Luokui roared angrily, and grabbed a handful of bowed arrows. He is a good hunter in the grassland, and he is very proficient in archery with one hand. Ananda heard the piercing arrow string approaching, and was knocked off by something. From the beginning to the end, she was held tightly in his arms.
"Hahaha! Chu Baning, it's not that simple for you to want my life! One day, I will make you and that woman die!"
Du Luokui's voice seemed to come from hell, full of resentment, reminding her of his aggressive gaze like a beast, and the fierce bite on her shoulder.
"Kill them!" The voice of the man holding her was calm and cold, unmoved by Durokui's words.
Women are really not suitable for war.
Her throat was dry, her stomach felt nauseous, and what hurt her most was a burning pain in her back, as if something was draining. She knew that this was A Duo's knife just now. Although it didn't directly penetrate her body, it also cut her back, and the blood on her back had already soaked the clothes.
"Ananda, you've done a good job, hold on!" He hugged her tightly, blocking Durokui's attack, and whispered in her ear.
Sitting sideways in his arms, she heard his voice and looked up at him with difficulty, only seeing his delicate and firm chin. His vision was a little hazy, and he wanted to smile at him, but his mouth just moved. The flames in his eyes looking straight ahead were still not extinguished. She knew that under his calm appearance, there was still a raging flame. She knew that she was miserable this time, and he was even more angry than the last time when she found out that she was sick when she came to Tongcheng. Now, she will not only be tortured mentally, but also physically.
But she was really in pain, and her consciousness gradually became blurred...
***********
When Ananda woke up vaguely, he heard Rucui's cry.
"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo lord, it's not good to be a servant girl..."
"Girl, cry softly, or your princess will be disturbed." A gentle voice sounded.
Sure enough, the voice was quiet, but she was still sobbing.
She felt that she was lying on her stomach, smelled a strong smell of medicine in her breath, and felt a burning pain in her back, which made her think it was in a dream, a warm hand caressed her face gently, It seems to be trying to smooth her frown.
"Zixiu, is the matter settled?" asked the deep baritone.
Wen Liang didn't shake his fan like usual at this time, and he looked serious and serious: "My lord, don't worry, no one knows about this except us. When the city gate was closed, the people thought it was a bold North Vietnamese sneaking into the city." Murder in the city, my lord, you bring people to stop them, no one knows about the robbery of the princess."
Chu Baning sat in front of the bed, staring at the pale young girl on the bed, his eyes were deep and hard to distinguish, he stroked her pale face with his hands, and moved his fingertips to her dry and pale lips and rubbed them carefully.
"Where's Durokui?"
"I'm sorry to let him run away. However, according to his injuries, if there is no rescue, it may be difficult to reach Heishui City safely. I have already sent people to chase and kill him along the way." Wen Liang replied, "But we caught one A North Vietnamese man named Sagu, according to him, Du Luokui has been lurking in our Great Chu to collect information. This time he ventured into Tongcheng to confirm whether the news that General Zhao was seriously ill was true. The one who The captured North Vietnamese exposed themselves as murderers just to help him escape, so that we can let our guard down and let the Seventh Prince trapped in the city escape."
"Continue to torture, let him spit out everything he knows." Chu Baning looked serious, but his eyes were cold.
Wen Liang responded with a face, and silently mourned for the guard in his heart. It's not good for them to kidnap someone, but it happened to offend someone's heart. It is estimated that some prince in the world will arrest Du Luokui to vent his hatred.
"Also, don't let anyone know about this!" Chu Ba calmly glanced at the two people in the room, and the warning was self-evident.
Ru Cui lowered her head and obediently responded.
Wen Liang was chilled by his eyes, and knew that he was going to keep the matter a secret, otherwise he would not have called the imperial doctor when he brought him back, but would have given Ananda the medicine himself. Wen Liang knows that this matter is of great importance, so let's just let it die in his stomach. As the prince said to the outside world, the princess occasionally feels cold and is sick in bed.
After discussing things for a while, Wen Liang and Ru Cui were only allowed to go out when Ru Lan brought the medicine over.
After leaving the principal room, Rucui's eyes were still red and swollen.
"Girl, I don't see how fierce you are!" As soon as he went out, Wen Liang reverted to being that sloppy bad military adviser, and said with a joke.
Ru Cui glanced at him, lowered her head and said nothing.
Wen Liang touched her head and said, "I'm very pleased that you've done a good job! It's also thanks to you that the princess was saved so quickly."
Ru Cui raised her head in surprise, and saw the smiling eyes of the man on the opposite side, a warm smile on a handsome face, a look of appreciation and comfort, which was very touching.
"Thank you, Mr. Wen." Rucui said gratefully after feeling better.
Wen Liang smiled, opened the fan again with a snap and started shaking it.
"Okay, you've been tired all day, go and rest."
"Yes." Ru Cui blessed him, turned and left.
Wen Liang frowned slightly as he watched the maid leave.
Although he said comforting words to the girl, he also knew that the princess' injury made the prince very angry. In fact, apart from knowing that the princess had a knife wound on her back, he didn't know anything else. What he couldn't figure out was that Su Wangfei's injury was not serious, nor did she hurt her vitals, but he didn't know why the prince's face was so cold and dark? Is there any inside story
Wen Liang slowly recalled what Ru Cui had just said, combined with the information Chu Baning asked his confidants to send, he really couldn't figure out why the prince was so furious. He came here in a hurry after receiving the news when the matter was almost over. All he knew was that Ananda let a North Vietnamese woman cut her back with a scimitar. However, because Chu Baning made the move in time, the knife was not deep, and it just caused her to lose blood. Too much coma.
Could it be that he loves her so deeply that even the slightest damage to her is unacceptable
Wen Liang propped his chin on the top of the fan and thought so.
However, Wen Liang naturally didn't know that Ru Cui concealed some of the process, and what he didn't even tell Chu Baning was the fact that Ananda was bitten. Although Chu Baning didn't know the process, but seeing the bloody tooth marks on Ananda's shoulder, even if he wanted to pretend he couldn't see it, what else didn't he understand
This is why Chu Baning hated Du Luokui so much.
*****
Indoors, Chu Baning took the medicine that Ru Lan brought over, and waved her to leave.
Chu Baning sat on the bed, looking with deep eyes at the restless girl sleeping on the bed, she seemed to be enduring some great pain, her dry lips parted slightly, and she groaned softly.
She was half asleep and half awake, and the tragic scene on the battlefield was replayed infinitely in her dream.
Chu Baning looked at her for a while, lifted her up half of her body, picked up a bowl and took a mouthful of black medicine, bent down and pressed her lips, and fed the bitter medicine.
The bitter and astringent medicine entered her throat, finally bringing her back to reality from that nightmare.
Ananda opened his eyes, and what he saw was a magnified handsome face, and there was a warm touch from his lips.
His eyelashes were slightly closed, half covering those quiet eyes, and the medicine he fed into her mouth was very bitter, his lips and tongue forced her to swallow the medicine down her throat, and after she swallowed, The slippery and warm tongue licked and sucked every part of her mouth, stirred and sucked, and swept every corner of her mouth carefully, and soon the bitter taste of the medicine was sucked by him...
"Ok… "
When he finally backed away, she opened her mouth and was about to speak, but who knew that he took another sip of the medicine juice and came over, wrapped her lips in his mouth, continued to feed the medicine, and then sucked a deep kiss. He moved very slowly, feeding it one bite at a time, completely ignoring that she was already awake and could drink the medicine by herself, and at this slow speed, let her slowly taste the bitterness. The bitter taste of the medicine made her feel unbearable, and she just wanted to drink it up in one gulp.
After doing this several times, she finally realized that she was in a very bad situation.
She is now lying naked on the bed, the knife wound on her back has been treated and bandaged, but the bite wound on her shoulder has not been bandaged except for the cool feeling to let her know that it has been medicated , when he was feeding, his fingers stroked the skin around the wound from time to time, making her nerves tense slightly.
When he finally kissed her enough, he put her back on the bed and lay on her stomach. Then, under her surprised stare, he slowly took off the clothes on her body, revealing her slender and tall body.
Ananda's breathing was slightly stagnant, and he lowered his eyes dully. He was relieved to see that something hideous between his slender legs did not look up.
However, soon, she found that she had relaxed too early.
He directly lifted the quilt covering her body and went to bed, and pressed his warm naked body against her, because she was injured and did not directly press on her, but lay on her side beside her, the scorching breath fell on her naked body. - naked backside...
