If it was Rouyao who took Prince Nan Huai away, everyone would be even more worried.
Because Rouyao will also be in danger. After the assassin receives the money, he will definitely complete the task. The underworld also has its own ethics.
Everyone was at a loss as to what to do. The most important thing was that they didn't know where Rouyao would take Prince Nan Huai, and whether Rouyao was injured.
"But Rouyao's martial arts skills are not very high, how did she rescue those people?" Xiao Tuo asked puzzledly.
Su Qing glanced at him and said, "I'm afraid Rouyao knew about the assassination plan in advance, so she made preparations in advance, otherwise it would be impossible to save the person from the assassin."
"Night King, any news on the assassin?"
The Night King shook his head: "How can it be so fast? It's still under investigation."
Prince Nan Huai was indeed rescued by Rouyao.
That day in the mansion, she overheard her great uncle Sun Guojiu discussing something with a stranger. Although she did not hear what they were discussing, she vaguely heard something about the same-life Gu and Prince Nan Huai. She intuitively felt that it was related to Murong Jie.
So she followed the stranger and found out that they had found King Nan Huai and wanted to assassinate him.
She was secretly anxious and wanted to go back to find him, but she had already left the capital and was afraid she would miss him if she went back.
She remembered that she had been listening to Zi'an teaching Lao Qi how to make gunpowder, so she bought some gunpowder in the town and made a few small gunpowder bags according to Zi'an's instructions and carried them with her.
In order to take King Nan Huai away, she bought a carriage, parked it at the intersection, and secretly followed the assassin into the mountains.
She didn't expect that King Nan Huai was imprisoned in a Dragon King Temple outside the city. She had never known that there was a Dragon King Temple in the deep mountains, and probably no one knew about it. When she came outside, she saw that the Dragon King Temple was very new and it seemed that there had never been any incense.
She went around from the back of the Dragon King Temple and placed a bomb before the assassin took action. However, it was obviously not a bomb but a smoke bomb, and she failed.
However, the smoke allowed him to take the person away when the assassins were confused. King Nan Huai was only stabbed once and was not seriously injured, so he was able to escape with him.
Besides, Prince Nan Huai was a madman, and she couldn't run as fast as him.
When she was about to run to the intersection, the assassins caught up with her. Although the distance was far, a long sword came from the air and pierced through the back of King Nan Huai. Rouyao was so scared that she quickly lit a pack of dynamite and threw it back. A puff of smoke rose. She took the opportunity to help King Nan Huai get on the carriage. She originally wanted to go back to the city, but just as she turned the horse's head, she saw several horses coming up the official road. They were dressed like those assassins. She had to turn around and flee in another direction. Then she threw a pack of dynamite. This time, it actually exploded, and several assassins on horseback were blown away. The assassins behind her could not run faster than the horses on foot, so she was able to escape from the pursuit temporarily.
In the carriage, she quickly treated King Nan Huai's wound. Fortunately, she was used to carrying wound medicine and some hemostatic powder with her. However, after the sword was pulled out, King Nan Huai bled profusely. Although the bleeding stopped later, he had lost too much blood and was almost unconscious.
He couldn't afford to be shaken any more, otherwise he would lose his life.
She had gained experience from her previous escape with Ajing. She tried not to run on the official road as much as possible, and hid in the mountains whenever possible. Because there were wounded, they could not catch up with the speed of others. Once they entered the mountains, there were many roads and hiding places. If the other party did not conduct a carpet search, it would be difficult to find them.
So, she got off the carriage at the foot of Mangshan Mountain, whipped the horse hard to let it continue to run forward. She first helped King Nan Huai to a tree at the side of the mountain, and then cleaned up the bloodstains on the roadside.
After going up the mountain, it was difficult to find bloodstains because there were many dead leaves of different colors. As long as no one found out that they got off the carriage here, they could basically hide it.
There are many caves in Mangshan. Rouyao helped him to the cave and treated his wounds.
King Nan Huai was always in a semi-conscious state, but he was no longer crazy.
When Rouyao was treating his wounds, he just looked at her quietly, not making a sound no matter how much pain he felt.
"Rouyao!"
After treating the wound, he cried out softly and was much more awake than before.
Rouyao's hands froze for a moment, and she put the bloodstained handkerchief aside, "Don't talk."
"I'm dying." Nan Huai Wang smiled and kept looking at her. "I didn't expect that you would be by my side when I die."
"Don't talk nonsense, you won't die." Rouyao glared at him.
"Are you afraid of my death, or Murong Jie's death?"
"I don't care whether you live or die." Rouyao said coldly.
King Nan Huai sighed, "Do you hate me that much?"
His face was calm, a kind of calmness that came after a frenzy. His face was frighteningly pale and his eyes were staring straight at Rouyao with complicated emotions in them.
When Rouyao thought about the past, she felt only hatred in her heart.
She really hated him, hated him to the core.
"I'm sorry!" Prince Nan Huai said softly.
Tears welled up in Rouyao's eyes, blurring her vision but unable to hide the anger and hatred in her eyes. She had always been unwilling to face King Nan Huai directly. Even after so many years, she still didn't want to face him.
"Shut up!" Rouyao took a deep breath and suppressed her surging thoughts.
"If you marry me, perhaps my life will change." King Nan Huai turned his head away and sighed softly.
Even though things have come to this, she would rather marry a tuberculosis patient than marry him.
She said that day that she would rather marry a pig or a dog than marry him.
I still remember the hatred in her eyes when she said this, and it is the same as it is now.
Rouyao didn't want to talk to him, so she stood up and walked out, sitting at the entrance of the cave. It was already dark, and she was only thinking about how to save King Nan Huai's life.
"Rouyao." He called her again.
Rouyao didn't agree, but just kept wiping away her tears.
"sorry!"
He sighed softly again, "But I don't regret it. I can only get you in that way."
"Shut up, shut up!" Rouyao suddenly jumped up, pointing at him and yelling, "What qualifications do you have to say sorry? I wish I could cut you into pieces."
King Nan Huai was lying on the ground, looking at her. The light was dim and she was facing away from the light, so he could not see clearly. He tried to stand up, but it pulled his wound, and he finally lay down helplessly.
"Even if you hate me, at least I have a place in your heart." King Nan Huai smiled and slowly closed his eyes.
I'm tired and my wound hurts.
"What's so good about Murong Jie? Even if he's very good, what's the point? For someone who doesn't love you, no matter how good he is, it has nothing to do with you. Why can't he just look at me?"
His voice was very sad, as if all his tragedies started just because Rouyao rejected him.
Rouyao was trembling all over. Thinking of what Ajing said to her in the letter, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
Although she did not say it directly when she was on the run, she revealed to Ajing those things about her and King Nanhuai. Ajing should have guessed it, so she said in the letter that no matter what she had experienced, in his heart, she was the best.
"Do you really like Su Qing? I heard that you later fell in love with Su Qing. After you stopped loving Murong Jie, you fell in love with Su Qing, but Su Qing despised you, right?"
