Chapter 848: Hostage, the time has come

The assassins came prepared. Although it was the first time they cooperated, they advanced and retreated properly. Soon, several assassins broke through the defense of the Jinwuwei Army and rushed to the front of the main tent.

Fortunately, Xiao Tianyao was not unprepared. Seeing that the assassin was about to rush into the camp, a group of elite soldiers poured out from both sides, trying to keep the assassins out.

In the camp, Lin Chujiu and the shadow guard, who were ready for battle, heaved a sigh of relief at the same time.

"Sure enough, wangye has arrangements." The shadow guard glanced at Lin Chujiu secretly and was relieved to see that Lin Chujiu was not unhappy.

Others don’t know, but these shadow guards know how much their prince cares about their princess. If their princess was unhappy about this matter and has a Cold War with their prince, then they will be the ones who get unlucky.

Although their prince will not beat them or scold them,… …

Facing the coldness of their prince every day, they will be afraid!

"Wangye has long been prepared and will not put us in danger." Even though she can guess that there were people in the capital who don't want them to go back, how could Xiao Tianyao not guess?

It was just, she didn't expect that the Empress was able to find so many assassins in a short period.

"Wangfei, the situation outside has stabilized now, do you want this subordinate to escort you to Wangye's place?" Seeing that the assassins were restrained by the Jinwuwei Soldiers, the shadow guard thought of escorting Lin Chujiu out again.

This was the main tent, where the killers concentrate their firepower to attack. It was not safe for them to stay here. The assassin's methods were weird and changeable, and he has no confidence in protecting their princess in the chaos.

"No, it's even more dangerous to go out." Xiao Tianyao's back must be the safest, but she was afraid that she would die behind Xiao Tianyao.

The shadow guard remained silent and did not try to persuade him.

Although he knew very well that the target of the killers was their prince, he couldn't guarantee that those assassins would not take the opportunity to capture their princess alive and threaten their prince with the princess. If that happened, it would be terrible.

Lin Chujiu didn't speak either, she clenched the dagger tighter and looked around warily. contemporary romance

She has faced assassination more than once. She was very clear that powerful assassins will never confront the target person head-on. They will lurk in the dark and wait for the opportunity.

There were many assassins outside. Lin Chujiu was not afraid of the Jinwuwei Army. What she feared were the assassins lurking around in secret. This was a truly terrifying existence.

However, she was really afraid of something, just when Lin Chujiu was worried that there was an assassin lurking in the dark, waiting for an opportunity, a short arrow glowing with blue light shot towards her with a "swoosh".

"Wangfei, be careful!" The shadow guard quickly pushed Lin Chujiu away and stood in front of Lin Chujiu.

*Bang* The short arrow intersected with the long sword, and there was a crisp sound. At the critical moment, the shadow guard shot the short arrow out, but there was a second one after the first one. The second short arrow came flying again, the shadow guard had to concentrate all his attention to guard against the assassin hidden in the dark.

"These short arrows are poisonous, be careful." Lin Chujiu immediately hid in a blind spot that was not easily attacked by short arrows, but the blind spot could avoid the sneak attack of short arrows, but could not avoid the assassin's frontal blow.

When the hidden assassin broke through the roof, he stabbed Lin Chujiu with a long sword. Lin Chujiu had nowhere to hide.

"Damn it!" Lin Chujiu cursed in a low voice, facing the assassin's long sword, she could barely dodge her vitals.

"Swish.." The long sword cut through her arm, and the blood-stained her sleeve instantly.

Lin Chujiu hugged her injured arm and rolled around on the ground in embarrassment. Seeing the assassin attacking again, Lin Chujiu shouted: "Isn't your target Xiao Tianyao? Instead of killing me, it's better to capture me alive and use me to threaten Xiao Tianyao.”

"Where is Xiao Wangye?" The assassin paused, making Lin Chujiu gasp.

"Xiao Tianyao is not here, I can take you there." Lin Chujiu stood up in embarrassment, still holding the injured arm with her right hand, and looked at the assassin timidly, with a look of no lethality.

The assassin didn't move, but hesitation flashed in his eyes.

The employer didn’t say they wanted to kill Princess Xiao, and it wouldn’t do them any good to kill Princess Xiao, but if they could let Princess Xiao lead the way, they would have a somewhat higher chance of winning.

"Wangfei, you can't!" The shadow guard who was forced to get close by the short arrow roared when he heard Lin Chujiu's words.

"Does what you say count?" The assassin was still a little hesitant at first, but seeing that the shadow guard reacted so strongly, he knew that Princess Xiao was still useful.

The assassin pointed his sword at Lin Chujiu: "Turn your back and lead the way."

"Okay." Lin Chujiu was very cooperative, completely cowardly, and willing to do anything just to survive.

"Wangfei, you can't!" The shadow guard wanted to step forward, but as soon as he moved the assassin put his sword on Lin Chujiu's neck: "If you don't want her to die, don't move."

"Wangfei…" The shadow guard didn't dare to move, and could only look at Lin Chujiu who was leading the killer out with hatred.

Lin Chujiu didn't look back and walked very carefully step by step. As soon as she stepped out of the camp, he heard the assassin behind her shouting: "If you don't want Xiao Wangfei to die, stop at once!"

Xiao Tianyao arranged for the elites to protect Lin Chujiu. Seeing that Lin Chujiu was restrained by the assassin, the soldiers had to stop.

"You guys, come behind me, let's go find Prince Xiao together." The assassins secretly heaved a sigh of relief seeing Jinwuwei Army's cooperation.

It seems that Xiao Wangfei was very useful as a hostage, and it was right not to kill her just now.

Seeing this, the assassins immediately gathered behind the assassin and walked forward under the leadership of Lin Chujiu. The Jinwuwei Army followed them step by step. The assassins didn't stop, they only asked the Jinwuwei Army to step back and keep a safe distance from them.

Lin Chujiu, who was walking in front, heard the assassin's words, and a sneer flashed in her eyes.

The assassins had gathered together and kept a sufficient distance from the Jinwuwei Army. She could attack as long as she found an opportunity.

Because it was a temporary residence, the tents were all set up in one direction, and soon Lin Chujiu brought the assassins to the tents where the ministers were.

Outside the tent, another group of assassins was fighting with the Jinwuwei Army. They tried to break through the Jinwuwei Army's defense and enter the tent, but they failed for a long time.

Just when they were about to give up, they saw the assassin walking over with Lin Chujiu.

"What's going on?" Someone asked one thing.

The assassin who took Lin Chujiu hostage said: "Xiao Wangye is inside." In other words, so many of them were attacking the main camp, but they were busy for nothing. Prince Xiao was not in the camp at all.

"What? Xiao, Xiao Wangye is inside?" The assassins who attacked the minister's camp were second and third-rate. They came here to pick up bargains. How would they know that not only were there no bargains to pick up, but they hit the iron plate instead?

"Wangfei? Who are you? Let wangfei go!" Seeing Lin Chujiu being restrained by the assassin, the Jinwuwi Soldier asked sharply.

"You only have a stick of incense, call Xiao Wangye out, or I will kill her." With a movement of the assassin's wrist, the blade drew a bloodstain on Lin Chujiu's neck.
