Chapter 333: Questioning the Princess, Your Courage is Commendable
"Someone come, protect the princess!" Xiao Yan'an shouted to the surroundings.
There was no movement around.
Ji Chuhe immediately realized that the eldest princess did not bring any guards!
If they just wanted to kill her, they wouldn't have set up such a trap! Isn't the princess afraid that she herself will become the target of the wolf pack's attack?
At this time, she had no time to speculate on the princess's specific plan. A madman's thoughts could not be judged by normal people.
Xiao Yan'an immediately came to Ji Chuhe's side.
"Madam, it's dangerous here. I'll take you away first!" Xiao Yan'an held Ji Chuhe's hand and walked back the way they came.
They must meet up with the people from the Duke's Mansion as soon as possible!
In this way, the safety of him and Ji Chuhe can be guaranteed to the greatest extent.
At the foot of the mountain, the people from the Duke's Mansion were forced back step by step by the Princess's guards.
"The princess is here, who dares to disturb her!" the leader of the guards shouted loudly.
Rong Yuchuan, the eldest son of Rong, immediately dismounted and questioned the people in front of him, "You are the guards of the eldest princess, why are you not guarding her? There are a lot of wild beasts in the hunting grounds, what if they hurt the eldest princess?"
"Master Rong, don't worry about that."
"I heard wolves howling in the mountains, which is the direction where the princess is. If you don't get out of the way, you are trying to murder the princess!"
"Master Rong, if you dare to take another step forward, it will be your intention to murder the princess! Everyone listen up, no matter who it is, anyone who dares to take a step forward will be killed without mercy!"
"Father, go and ask for the emperor's order." Rong Xiaosi reminded.
Rong Yuchuan immediately understood, jumped on his horse and ran towards the direction of the emperor.
At the top of the mountain, the wolves were approaching.
Xiao Yanan had only run a few steps when his way was blocked.
Ji Chuhe's mind was spinning rapidly. He looked back at the eldest princess and found that she was sitting there, motionless, not afraid of the wolves at all.
"Prince, let's go back to the eldest princess!" Ji Chuhe just finished speaking.
The wolves pounced towards them!
Xiao Yan'an also understood and immediately let go of Ji Chuhe's hand, "Madam, please go back to the princess!" After saying that, he drew the sword at his waist and stepped forward, blocking the wolf.
If he didn't block it and buy Ji Chuhe some time, neither of them would be able to outrun the wolf!
"Prince, be careful!" Ji Chuhe looked at Xiao Yan'an worriedly.
She did not dare to delay and ran to the eldest princess as fast as she could.
"Princess, if Xiao Yan'an died, you probably wouldn't be able to explain to the Emperor!" Ji Chuhe asked coldly.
The eldest princess's face turned cold and a murderous look flashed in her eyes.
"Ji Chuhe, looking around the imperial capital, besides the emperor and my mother, you are the first person who dares to speak to me in this tone. I really admire your courage, but have you thought about the consequences you will have to bear?"
Ji Chuhe turned around and glanced in the direction of Xiao Yanan.
He has been surrounded by four wolves, which are constantly closing the distance between them and him. Each of them bared their sharp fangs and whimpered from time to time.
Suddenly, a wolf took the lead in attacking!
"Prince, be careful!" A figure appeared from nowhere, rushed towards Xiao Yan'an, and directly blocked Xiao Yan'an.
The wolf that had already launched the attack bit her arm!
"Ah!" Liao Yunfei screamed.
Xiao Yan'an was stunned for a moment, then immediately came to his senses, raised his dagger and stabbed at the wolf that was biting Liao Yunfei.
The sharp tip of the knife just pierced the wolf's neck, and blood gushed out.
The other three wolves also rushed up quickly!
"Go away! Go away! If you want to eat me, don't hurt the prince!" Liao Yunfei stood in front of Xiao Yan'an like a madman.
Another wolf opened its mouth wide and bit her shoulder, tearing her apart and pulling her backwards!
"Liao Yunfei!" Xiao Yan'an was too close, and this scene had a huge impact on him!
He drew out his dagger and stabbed the wolf again!
Before it hit the wolf, an arrow pierced the wolf's head with great accuracy!
Then, a few more arrows were shot and all the wolves were shot dead.
Xiao Yanan immediately stepped forward and found that the wolf was still biting Liao Yunfei's shoulder tightly, so he pried the wolf's mouth open.
Suddenly his eyes became stern.
I saw a horrific scene.
A piece of flesh on Liao Yunfei's shoulder had been bitten off by the wolf! The piece of flesh was hanging on the wolf's teeth, and the bones were also bitten off! If it was a little later, her entire shoulder would have been torn to pieces by the wolf!
Ji Chuhe also saw this tragic scene and his face turned pale.
"I am sorry for being late in coming to your rescue, Princess. I hope you will forgive me!" A group of men in armor knelt in front of the Princess.
"The credit for protecting the emperor today goes entirely to the prince." The eldest princess said lightly.
"Madam Prince, that woman who suddenly rushed out seemed to be from the Prince's Mansion? She is injured so badly, let the imperial physician take a look at her immediately. It looks like her life is in danger." The eldest princess looked at Ji Chuhe with a teasing look.
Ji Chuhe did not respond and walked towards Xiao Yanan and Liao Yunfei.
Liao Yunfei had fainted and was covered in blood.
"Prince, quickly take Liao Yunfei to see the imperial physician!"
Xiao Yan'an picked up Liao Yunfei and walked down the mountain.
Such a dangerous thing happened here, but it did not affect the celebration at the banquet hall at all.
From time to time, people would report the hunting results here.
When they heard the names of their family members, these women couldn't help but reveal proud smiles on their faces.
Only the people in the Duke's Mansion felt uneasy.
Xiao Yan'an found the imperial physician and treated Liao Yunfei in a makeshift tent.
"Prince, the concubine is seriously injured and has lost too much blood. I'm afraid she is in great danger!" said the imperial physician with a worried look on his face.
"Excuse me, is Doctor Lin at the hunting ground today?" Ji Chuhe asked.
"Doctor Lin is on duty in the palace today."
"Do your best to treat him first!" Xiao Yan'an said to the imperial physician.
"Yes, Prince." The imperial physician immediately cleaned Liao Yunfei's wounds and applied medicine to stop the bleeding. He was busy for half an hour before he finally bandaged all of Liao Yunfei's wounds.
"Your Highness, I have done what I should do. As for whether the concubine can survive, it depends on her luck." The doctor said, and sorted out his medicine box. "Your Highness, I will take my leave first."
Xiao Yanan looked at Liao Yunfei, whose face was as pale as paper, and his mind was full of the scene of Liao Yunfei being bitten by a wolf.
"Prince, Liao Yunfei was injured so badly, it would be safer to send him back home first." Ji Chuhe said softly.
"Okay, let's take her back together."
Just as Xiao Yan'an was about to call someone in, someone lifted the curtain and came in.
"Madam Crown Prince, the Queen invites you to attend the banquet." The person who came was the nanny beside the Queen.
"Mammy, my concubine was seriously injured in the hunting grounds. I would like to send her back home with the prince. Could you please tell the queen that I will take my leave today?"
The nanny shook her head in embarrassment and whispered, "Madam, if the Queen is in charge, she will definitely not force you to stay. You should just go with me."
