Chapter 397 Heroism
Xiao Yuncheng struggled for a moment, but in the end he ignored the obstruction of others and rode forward.
There was a gleam in Shen Jingyu's eyes, and she stretched out her hand, hoping that Xiao Yuncheng could help her. After Xiao Yuncheng approached, he raised the whip in his hand and swung it into the air, and then reached out to grab Shen Jingyu.
The girl's originally slender white hands were now covered with a dense layer of wasps, which made people's scalp tingle.
Xiao Yuncheng's breathing was unstable, his eyes were solemn, and he ruthlessly raised the whip towards Shen Jingyu's hand.
Then, taking advantage of the moment when some of the hornets were blown away, he grabbed Shen Jingyu's hand and tried to get her on the horse.
At this moment, Shen Jingyu seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and held Xiao Yuncheng's hand tightly: "Your Highness..."
But the moment the two hands touched, the hornets all pounced on Xiao Yuncheng's hands and arms.
A tingling sensation came instantly, spreading from the back of the hand, followed by a burning sensation that made people's hearts tighten.
"Your Highness, you can't do that!" A young general spoke in a deep voice and was about to step forward.
But in the current situation, going forward will be of no use at all.
Zhou Qiwen rode a horse and followed Xiao Heyu. Seeing this scene, she smiled and said, "The Eighth Prince is really heroic."
Xiao Heyu twitched his lips and sneered, "Heroism? It's just that you are riding a tiger and it's hard to get off."
After all, everyone knew that he was in love with Shen Jingyu. If he, a prince of the Daqian Dynasty, abandoned his woman and ran away in front of everyone, what would the ministers think?
As soon as these words get out, countless people in the world will poke holes in his spine.
I don’t know whose plan this is.
Xiao Tingshan was riding a horse behind him and could see everything clearly at this moment.
Almost in an instant, he clearly realized that Shen Jingyu's dream of becoming queen was shattered.
He almost instinctively looked at the girl in the crowd on the other side. Shen Shuyi was watching this scene calmly, so calm that it could even be called indifferent.
Is it a coincidence?
No, definitely not.
But what does she want?
Xiao Tingshan forced himself to collect his thoughts and consider whether or not to save Shen Jingyu.
He still believed that Shen Jingyu might have something extremely important in her hand, otherwise how could she make Concubine Jing nod and make Xiao Yuncheng insist on marrying her.
But he is Xiao Heyu's confidant, and saving people at this time can only represent Xiao Heyu's attitude.
And in the end, Shen Jingyu would not entrust the bargaining chips in her hand to herself. After all, she was aiming for a high position. Instead of using it to seek something from Xiao Heyu, it would be better to use it to negotiate with Xiao Yuncheng.
After all, Xiao Heyu couldn't give her the position of principal wife, or even the position of concubine.
Xiao Tingshan was still weighing the pros and cons, thinking about how to save people so that Shen Jingyu would be willing to entrust the chips in her hand to him.
"what--!!!"
When Shen Jingyu let out a tragic scream, Xiao Heyu frowned, thinking that the end of this talented woman who was famous in the capital was really tragic.
Zhou Qiwen sneered and said, "It seems that what Master Huai Hai said is wrong. This 'noble lady' is nothing special."
Hearing this, Xiao Tingshan's mind moved slightly. He looked at Shen Shuyi beside him again, and suddenly a bold guess came to his mind.
Could it be that... the so-called noble lady never referred to Shen Jingyu?

At this moment, Shen Jingzhen, who was following the Qin family team, looked at this scene, her face turned pale, and she subconsciously took two steps back.
She felt bad as she looked at her sister, who was struggling in the field with disheveled hair.
This…this…is truly horrible.
She had never imagined it would be a scene like this, or rather, she had never imagined it would be so serious.
Shen Jingzhen comforted herself, she was the one who was sorry to me first, she was the one who ignored my happiness first...it's not my fault...
There were tears in the corners of Shen Jingzhen's eyes. Obviously, she felt a little reluctant at this moment.
After all, she was her sister from the same mother.
"Cousin, you...how could you..." A weak and uneasy voice sounded beside me.
Shen Jingzhen turned around and saw Lou Yulan also had a face full of shock, looking at her in disbelief.
Shen Jingzhen's throat tightened, and there was a hint of cruelty in her eyes. She whispered, "What are you talking about, cousin? What does this have to do with me?"
Lou Yulan looked like she was speechless. She opened her mouth but in the end, she said no word.
A tragic scream rang out in the scene. Lou Yulan withdrew her gaze, and there was a hint of depth in her pure eyes. She did not seem as flustered and uneasy as Shen Jingzhen, nor did she have the slightest regret.
It turns out that my cousin who is famous in the capital is just like this.
Now that I think about it, although Shen Jingzhen was stupid, she was right in one thing: as long as my cousin was around, my grandmother and the entire Qin family wouldn't be able to see her.
Only when my cousin is finished and there is no hope left will they turn their attention to me.
Many scenes from the past could not help but emerge in front of Lou Yulan's eyes. The Qin family was not a noble family, but they had exhausted all their resources to support Shen Jingyu.
From childhood to adulthood, everything, everything, she will always have to come second to her.
She always thought that she was like the most unreachable ray of light to her.
But now it seems that this beam of light is just blocking my way.
Lou Yulan looked coldly at the disheveled Shen Jingyu in the arena, and felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart.
As long as this face is ruined, Prince Song will never like you again, right?
Thinking of this, Lou Yulan felt indescribably wonderful, as if the fog that had been blocking her eyes was suddenly cleared away, and she was able to glimpse a new world from then on.
She raised her eyes and looked in the direction of Xiao Tingshan, but unfortunately, due to the angle, she could only see his profile.
She could see him holding the reins, staring at the scene with a frown, as if he wanted to move forward but was hesitant about something.
Lou Yulan retracted her gaze and choked up, "Cousin! Please, someone can save her!"
It seems that at this point, many people have forgotten to ask for help.
Only after Xiao Yuncheng came forward, he could no longer let go.
He gritted his teeth and brought Shen Jingyu onto the horse, then rode to the side, but the swarm of bees still chased him closely, and the buzzing sound kept ringing in his ears.
Although Xiao Yuncheng did not have any bee-luring water on him, he was very close to Shen Jingyu, not to mention that they always walked together.
So at this point, the hornet had stung him badly.
It wasn't until the second wasp landed on his face that a guard shouted urgently, "Your Highness, get off your horse!"
Xiao Yuncheng made up his mind, left Shen Jingyu behind, and dismounted without caring about any friendship.
For a moment, Shen Jingyu was the only one left on the horse, and because Xiao Yuncheng walked so quickly and decisively, Shen Jingyu was almost pulled off the horse.
She clutched the reins tightly, swaying.
Finally, as the wasp flew towards her face again, Shen Jingyu subconsciously reached out to block it and fell heavily to the ground again.
"careful!"
"Help...Help!!!" Shen Jingyu's sharp roar echoed in the forest.
