C2370 He Didn't Want to Stay

"Do you know who those people are?" The middle-aged envoy looked at the battlefield and said.

There were at least several hundred assassins with weapons in their hands. With so many people hiding here, it was obvious that it was not a small organization.

Wu Yan shook his head and said, "I don't know either. We need to catch them and interrogate them."

Wu Yan hated those assassins to death now. So, even if the people of Fengjue Country did not ask about this matter, he would not let go of those assassins and the people behind them. He did not want to get hurt for nothing.

More and more soldiers of Great Lu Dynasty rushed over from the city. Obviously, they had already received the news that those who had come to support... The assassins began to slowly fall into a disadvantageous position. More and more people were injured or even killed. Even at this point, they had never thought of retreating. Instead, they continued to rush towards the honor guard with fanatical expressions on their faces.

"Princess, don't look anymore. It's dangerous." Xiao Huan pulled Princess Qi, who was lying by the window, and said.

"It's fine. They can't hit us." Princess Qi said but her eyes did not move away, "Xiao Huan, do you know who those people are? Why did they do that? They wanted to kill us. Or the person who wants to kill the Fengjue Country?"

"I don't know. Princess, you should come here. It's too dangerous." Xiao Huan shook her head and said.

Princess Qi still did not go over, even though when she was attacked at the beginning. She was also very afraid, but at this moment, she had already calmed down. She could see that the assassins were still fighting. However, they were already at the end of their ropes. As the number of soldiers on Great Lu Dynasty's side increased... Those assassins' fates were already determined. They could no longer rush over.

Princess Qi was very curious about the identities of these assassins. She did not know what the purpose of their actions was.

The battlefield slowly calmed down. Those assassins were surrounded by Fengjue Countries and Great Lu Dynasty. They could not hold on for long and were eventually suppressed. However, when Wu Yan got angry, none of those assassins were left alive. Even though those assassins were injured, they didn't stop fighting. They seemed unusually passionate. So, they continued fighting until the last moment. Therefore, there wasn't a single survivor on the scene.

"Hmph, a bunch of trash!" At this moment, Lu Yizha walked back with blood all over his body. The blood on his body naturally didn't belong to him. It belonged to those assassins. The trash he spoke of was also referring to those assassins.

Although these assassins appeared very fanatical, but... Their combat strength was actually not considered high. It was just that they were not afraid of death. Other than when they were unprepared at the start... After obtaining some results, when they were surrounded and attacked... They didn't have much ability to resist. Lu Yizha had been fighting all this time. He had killed more than ten of them with his own hands. It wasn't a big deal.

"First Prince, are you alright?" When the middle-aged messenger saw that Lu Yizha was covered in blood, he asked with concern, "Are you hurt?"

"I'm fine. Those trash can't hurt me." Lu Yizha said proudly. Of course, he was brave enough to do so, and he also had the qualifications to do so.

"That's good." The middle-aged messenger heaved a sigh of relief. He didn't want to see Lu Yizha get hurt.

Lu Yizha walked to Wu Yan's side and asked, "Is this the doing of your Great Lu Dynasty?"

"No, this isn't us." Minister Wu explained again, "If we wanted to harm you, we wouldn't have waited until now. There were many opportunities in the city before, so there was no need to negotiate with you. Look, First Prince, I'm also injured. "

" His Highness the Prince, I don't think they are behind this. There should be someone else involved in this matter. " The middle-aged messenger walked over and said. At this moment, he had already regained his senses. The reason why he scolded Wu Yan earlier was because he was scared. He had lost his rationality. Now that he had regained his senses, he could think calmly.

This matter should not have been ordered by the Emperor of Great Lu Dynasty. There was no need at all. Just like what Wu Yan had said, if they wanted to kill them... There was no need to wait until now. When there were many opportunities in the city... At that time, they wouldn't have much room to resist. Besides, even if they were killed here... That would only infuriate the higher ups of the Fengjue Country. To the people of the Great Lu Dynasty... There were no benefits at all. They longed for peace. In fact, for this short period of peace, even the princess was sacrificed. Why would they want to anger the Fengjue Country at this time?

This didn't make sense at all. Therefore, this matter wouldn't be done by them.

However, if it wasn't done by them, who could it be? The middle-aged envoy didn't know much about the situation within the Great Lu Dynasty. Therefore, he couldn't think of who was behind these assassins.

"Hmph!" Lu Yizha snorted and said, "No matter who it is, it will not be that easy to kill us!"

"Then, should we wait for a day or two before leaving? I'm afraid that those people will continue to assassinate us if they are unwilling to give up. It won't be too late for you to leave after we capture all the people behind them." Wu Yan said.

"There's no need for that. We will follow the plan and set off immediately." The middle-aged messenger said.

"That's right. It's just a bunch of trash. Do you really think I'm afraid of them? No matter how many came, I'll kill as many as I can. " Lu Yizha also said.

There was a reason why the middle-aged messenger insisted on continuing his journey. Who knew how long it would take Minister Wu to investigate this matter? As time went on, something unexpected would happen. Furthermore, behind these assassins, there should be quite a large organization. It was absolutely not something that could be done in a short period of time to completely annihilate them.

And now, the surroundings of the Fengjue Country were not very safe. The other countries... They could attack the Fengjue Country at any time, but once this happened... It was hard to guarantee that the attitude of the Great Lu Dynasty wouldn't change. At that time... It wasn't impossible to detain them here.

Therefore, they couldn't stay in the Great Lu Dynasty for long. They had to leave as soon as possible. Furthermore, there were quite a number of people from the Imperial Guards in the escort team of the princess. It could also provide a lot of help, even if those people came again. He wasn't very worried.

As for Lu Yizha who insisted on going, he didn't think as much as this middle-aged man. It was all because he looked down on those assassins and didn't put them in his eyes. That was why he insisted on going. Didn't that mean that he was afraid of them? That was obviously not possible.

"Alright then. Dear emissaries, be careful on your way." Seeing that the people from the Fengjue Country insisted on leaving, Wu Yan didn't choose to keep them. He hoped that these people would take Princess Qi away as soon as possible. Furthermore... Since these people from the Fengjue Country were here, he had to accompany them well. That was obviously not a good job. Therefore, he hoped that these people would leave as soon as possible.2

Of course, even if the people from the Fengjue Country left, Wu Yan would still investigate today's matter. After all, he was injured because of this, and even almost died. Even if it wasn't for those people from the Fengjue Country, but for himself... He wouldn't let them go either.

The soldiers from the Great Lu Dynasty who had rushed over from the city were currently handling the corpses on the ground. After the Fengjue Country had been reorganized, it had gone back to the road. Princess Qi's escort team... After reorganizing, they set off to catch up with the huge team. They began to slowly walk away from the capital and into the distance.

"What a pity. If only those people had killed those people from the Fengjue Country. Princess, you don't have to marry into the Fengjue Country." Xiao Huan said with a look of pity in the carriage.

"It's useless." Princess Qi shook her head and said, "They have already been officially betrothed. Even if First Prince, the Fengjue Country, dies, if the Fengjue Country wants someone, I will still be sent there. It's just that when the time comes, it might be someone from the Fengjue Country who will marry me. Furthermore, if those people from the Fengjue Country really died at the entrance of the city... Those people from the Fengjue Country would surely be furious and blame Royal Brother. At that time, the flames of war might rekindle."

After Princess Qi experienced the marriage, she had obviously matured a lot. She was no longer the princess who only knew how to play and be insensible. She had also thought about the problem more thoroughly. Actually, this was not strange. Princess Qi was a princess. The education she received since she was young was definitely much better than ordinary people. In addition, her brain was not stupid. So... Her thinking would also be more comprehensive.

"Therefore, we are definitely going to the Fengjue Country. No one can stop this." Princess Qi looked at the retreating scenery outside the city and said leisurely. She knew that... She was far away from the capital, from this place where she had lived for more than ten years. She might never have the chance to return to this place in the future.

"Looks like they failed." At this moment, on the streets of the city, due to the disturbance outside the city... The honor guard had already left. Most of the onlookers had already dispersed. A few people dressed like ordinary civilians were walking on the streets. They were chatting softly about the topic they were talking about. It had something to do with the attack outside the city.

"Okay." Another person nodded: "Apart from killing some of the imperial court's soldiers, we didn't kill any important figures. If we can kill that Fengjue Country's prince or that distant princess... That would be great. "

"Then what should we do now? Should we continue?" The person beside him asked.

"Of course we should continue!" The person who just spoke said, "Before they come out of seclusion, ambush them. There are so many of them. Their targets are very obvious. Furthermore, the route they take to exit seclusion should be very easy to guess. We will ambush them in advance on the route they take to come out of seclusion, and find an opportunity to kill them! "

"Alright, I will make the arrangements right away." That person said.

"In addition, tell the brothers in the city to be careful. The people from the Imperial Court might investigate this matter strictly and not expose it" That person said.

"Alright!"
