The subtle fragrance of cotton needles

Chapter 243: Diing in the River

Li Guan was sitting in the carriage and heard the conversation between Xia Yanxiang and Mo Yuchen, but she was still very angry. If it weren't for Mo Yuchen, how could A Yan be assassinated?

Although Xia Yanxiang didn't let her get angry about this matter, Li Guan was still angry.

Xia Yanxiang and Mo Fuchen had reached an agreement, but Mo Fuchen came back and sat outside Xia Yanxiang's carriage.

When Xia Yanxiang came in, she saw Li Guan looking angry and smiled: "What's wrong?"

Li Guan moved aside, snorted, and said nothing.

"What's wrong?" Xia Yanxiang sat over and asked again, reaching out to pat Li Guan's shoulder, "Don't you believe in your own strength?"

"It's not that I don't trust you!" Li Guan turned around angrily, "Why did you insist on calling King Luo to drive the car? If it weren't for him, how could we have been assassinated?!"

Before Xia Yanxiang could speak, Mo Yuchen's voice rang out: "Second Miss Li, Yanyan is my wife, what's wrong with me driving for her?"

"..." Li Guan was speechless, "You are so shameless! A Yan was assassinated because of you, and you still have the nerve to say that?"

Mo Yuchen chuckled softly, his voice was not loud, but Li Guan and Xia Yanxiang could hear it: "Don't we still have Miss Li Er? What are we afraid of?"

For the first time, Li Guan deeply felt Mo Yuchen's shamelessness: "Mo Yuchen!"

The voice suddenly became louder, startling Xia Yanxiang. Wuyi and Yizhu who were outside heard it and were startled by Li Guan's voice.

"What's wrong, Miss Li, was what I said wrong?" Mo Yuchen was not affected by Li Guan at all, but continued to tease Li Guan.

Li Guan was so angry that he wanted to come out and fight with Mo Yuchen. Xia Yanxiang was holding back her laughter and pulled Li Guan: "Okay, okay, don't bother with him!"

Mo Yuchen listened to the movement in the carriage with a smile, and his mood became much more relaxed.

Tonight's assassination was definitely not caused by rumors. Mo Yuchen knew it very well. He was afraid that someone was deliberately instigating it, otherwise who would dare to attack General Pu Wei's own sister.

In fact, even if he was not with Xia Yanxiang, those people would still lead him over.

Everyone's target from the beginning was Mo Fuchen. No matter how he hid, as long as they attacked Xia Yanxiang, Mo Fuchen would definitely come out.

Now that Mo Fuchen is by Xia Yanxiang's side, he can handle any problems he encounters, so Mo Fuchen has nothing to worry about.

After the assassination incident last night, Xia Zhibai issued an order early this morning that no one was allowed to leave the formation without permission, otherwise they would be dealt with according to military law.

After giving the order, Xia Zhibai led the army on the journey.

After all, they have an army of 100,000 here. It is too difficult to prevent the actions of those with ulterior motives on the road. It would be better if they reach the northwest border, where they can take precautions.

After making all kinds of calculations, Xia Zhibai had already sped up his journey as quickly as possible, and Mo Chen also tried his best to stay by Xia Yanxiang's side, but he was still caught by surprise.

That day, the army reached the river. Xia Yanxiang and Li Guan went alone to a place where no one could see them, to wash and get ready. Mo Yuchen also came, but he stood a little further away.

"Ayan, look! This is what we must go through on the march." Li Guan took off his armor, rolled up his sleeves, and washed them simply.

Xia Yanxiang wet the towel and wiped her body as much as possible. When she heard Li Guan's words, she smiled and said, "I have never left the capital since I was a child, and I have never been outside for several days without taking a bath. It is a bit uncomfortable."

"Hahaha! When we get to the northwest and go to the battlefield, we will be exhausted and sweaty but still have to go to meetings. After the meetings, we will stink all over!" Li Guan laughed and talked to Xia Yanxiang about life in the army.

"It would be fine if there were no enemy invading. On weekdays there's nothing to do except training, and it stinks at the end of the day." Li Guan said while casually splashing water on his face.

Xia Yanxiang smiled without saying anything, wiping her face carefully with a handkerchief.

Suddenly, a strange smell came from behind Xia Yanxiang. Xia Yanxiang paused and looked back. Before she could see clearly, she was kicked into the water.

The sound of a plop caught Li Guan's attention: "Ayan, what's wrong?"

When Li Guan looked up, she saw someone rushing towards her. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and stood up and jumped away.

Li Guan just dodged and hurried to see Xia Yanxiang. He didn't see anyone, but saw something floundering in the water. Without thinking too much, he quickly called out, "Mo Yuchen!"

Except for the man who kicked Xia Yanxiang into the water, nearly thirty people soon surrounded Li Guan.

Mo Yuchen heard Li Guan's cry, turned around and saw a group of men in black surrounding Li Guan, while Xia Yanxiang had disappeared. He only saw someone struggling in the water.

Mo Yuchen's heart tightened, and he rushed over here while shouting: "Yizhu! He Yuan! Someone come quickly!"

Mo Yuchen's voice attracted the attention of the man in black. While the man in black's attention was diverted, Li Guan grabbed the long sword beside him and took action.

Yizhu and He Yuan heard Mo Yuchen's call and quickly came over.

"You guys go help Miss Li Er! I'll go save Yanyan!"

"Yes!"

Knowing that Mo Yuchen was definitely going to rescue Xia Yanxiang, the ten men in black immediately rushed towards Xia Yanxiang, trying to stop Mo Yuchen.

Xia Yanxiang didn't know how to swim and choked on the water several times, starting to sink.

Although Mo Yuchen only called Yizhu and He Yuan, the two of them had already notified Chang Linyue and Zhou Wenrui, and they quickly went to call people.

The man in black this time was obviously not as simple as the previous assassins. He was very skilled in martial arts and Li Guan and the other two could not resist him.

Mo Yuchen fought against ten people alone and ended up in a draw.

But a draw is not possible. Yanyan has fallen into the river now. If we don’t find a solution, Yanyan will die in the river.

Mo Yuchen was a little anxious. He threw his spear to the ground, stood up and kicked away the people who rushed over. In a flash, he suddenly remembered the poison that Xia Yanxiang gave him.

Mo Yuchen turned his wrist and sprinkled the poison at the man in black.

The man in black who pounced on him was unable to dodge and the poison splashed onto his uncovered eyes.

"Ah!" A scream rang out immediately. The man in black who was sprinkled with the liquid began to fester visibly from his eyes. The parts that were not touched also quickly festered, and even emitted a foul odor.

The infection festered very quickly and the person died soon after.

There were only two people left in front of Mo Fuchen. They were frightened by the medicine Mo Fuchen sprinkled. They looked at each other and ran away.

The people on this side did run away, but those on the Liguan side did not.

Mo Yuchen fought off the man in black and jumped into the river to save Xia Yanxiang.

Fortunately, Chang Linyue and Xia Zhibai arrived soon.

"Someone come! Capture him alive!" Xia Zhibai rushed to Liguan in a few steps and quickly captured the man.

"Yan Yan! Yan Yan!" Mo Yuchen could no longer see any signs of Xia Yanxiang's struggle in the river. He was very panicked and looked for Xia Yanxiang anxiously.
