Le charme d'une femme puissante se répand à travers le monde

Chapitre 69

"Young lady, you've caught a chill and have a fever. Drink your medicine and rest." He handed me the bowl of medicine, which I took, glanced at him, and drank it down without hesitation.

"Father-in-law, has the sky outside changed color?" I handed him the bowl, then took the teacup he offered, rinsed my mouth with the Cui Feng Yun Xia tea, and asked softly.

"I heard the weather outside the city has changed drastically," he replied, taking the teacup.

I was startled and turned to look at the guards still standing watch outside the door. I composed myself and asked softly, "Has it snowed?"

"It seems like it snowed a little, but it's stopped now. It melted as soon as it hit the ground, which washed away some of the dirt on the ground, so it's not a bad thing."

Snow? Blood! He actually understood what I said, and it seems the casualties weren't too serious. I didn't expect the dissident forces in the Tianqing Army camp to be eliminated so easily! Wang An's information should be true. He was the one who rushed to find Wangyue Zongning just now, and then Wangyue Zongning rushed out. Maybe it was for this matter.

"Thank you, Father-in-law." I smiled at him, and he took the medicine bowl, bowed, and withdrew, closing the door behind him. I snuggled into the covers and closed my eyes peacefully. It seems everything is under Xi Lan's control!

In a daze, I felt someone pulling me again. Ugh, were they going to drag me up to the city wall again? Resigned, I opened my eyes, only to be surprised to see Ye Feng's face. I quickly covered my mouth. Good heavens, this brat claims to be the head of the secret guards, but he's always nowhere to be seen whenever I'm kidnapped. How did he suddenly appear this time?

I turned my head and gestured towards the door, raising my chin higher than the sky. The guy shook his head, bowed to me, then hoisted me onto his shoulder like a sandbag and walked outside. The guards who had been standing guard outside like stone statues were now lying stiffly on the ground, I didn't know if they had fainted or... well, you know.

Besides Ye Feng, there were four other men in black waiting outside the door. I strained to crane my neck and glance at them, when I saw Ye Feng leap up and dash across the rooftop. Hanging on his shoulder like this, I felt a little dizzy and cold, but in order to escape this awful place, I felt that nothing was unbearable.

The palace was vast, guarded everywhere, with small patrol teams constantly passing by. I was dizzy, watching the rooftops recede into the distance, and the little house I had been in was almost out of sight. Suddenly, I heard a commotion below, and then I felt the night wind stop. The four people beside me leaped to our side and stood in a line in front of us.

Ye Feng helped me stand beside him, and I then noticed that a row of guards dressed in golden moon robes, numbering about twenty, had appeared in front of us, blocking our path in a crescent formation. With a gesture from Ye Feng, the four Dark Guards engaged the guards in combat. Ye Feng then pulled me back and leaped over two rooftops before jumping off.

Ye Feng pulled me along, dodging and weaving, managing to evade quite a few guards. It seemed he had already scouted this place beforehand. News of the assassins had apparently spread, and more and more guards were heading in this direction. Ye Feng casually dealt with a few guards who tried to stop us from escaping, while pulling me to hide behind artificial hills and then in deserted houses.

The four guards were clearly tied up for a while, while more and more guards were swarming in this direction. With me, who didn't know martial arts, by Ye Feng's side, I couldn't help but feel a little worried when I saw this situation.

"Miss." A soft voice suddenly came from behind where we were hiding. It was Wang An!

I quickly grabbed Ye Feng's sleeve tightly and whispered, "Xiao Ye, no."

"Please come with me, young lady." Wang An approached gradually, spoke softly, and then turned and walked to the side.

Ye Feng glanced at me with a hint of doubt. I nodded to him, and he stood protectively to my side, following closely behind Wang An.

If Wang Anruo wanted to harm me at this moment, he could have just shouted "The assassin is here!" He did this because he was trying to help me.

We followed Wang An, who led us in the opposite direction to a secluded area. It didn't take long before we arrived at a house that looked like it had been abandoned for a long time. When we opened the door, we could feel dust falling down.

Night Breeze and I stopped involuntarily. Wang An went in first, and it was pitch black inside. He turned around and saw that we hadn't followed, so he took out a tinderbox, lit it, and said to me, "Don't be afraid, young lady. You can leave the palace from here."

I stepped inside, with Ye Feng following beside me, closing the door behind me. Wang An turned and led the way with a tinderbox. I didn't bother to look around, focusing only on Wang An's back, carefully following him. We walked a winding, circuitous path, unlike the secret passages we had experienced in the Azure Palace. It was more like a series of twists and turns in a closed corridor.

Wang An finally stopped, turned around and bowed to me, saying, "Miss, once you step out of this gate, you will be outside the palace. Please take care on your journey. I will see you off here."

"Wang An, will you be in trouble if you go back? Wangyue is about to be destroyed, and you still decide to stay here?" I looked ahead as he pointed, and there was indeed a door, but it seemed to have been abandoned for many years, covered with cobwebs and dust, and I didn't notice it unless I looked carefully.

"Thank you for your concern, Miss. I will leave after I have finished what I need to do here. If you do not mind, please let me serve you then." After he finished speaking, he turned around, pressed a few buttons somewhere, and pushed the door open heavily. A gust of cold wind blew in, and the night wind pulled me forward.

As I walked, I kept looking back at Wang An, who was still standing there with a tinderbox in his hand. Was he going to serve me again? After all, he had been kind to me. If he left here to come find me, I should send someone to serve him.

Walking out the gate, we truly left the Wangyue Palace. I looked back at the faintly visible high walls. Although I had believed Wang An had helped me from the start, I still couldn't quite believe how easily we had left the palace. I turned to the person beside me, somewhat dazed, and asked, "Yefeng, are we really out?"

I haven't tried it at Longyao Palace, but before at Tianqing Palace, Ye Feng couldn't even escape Zhilan Palace without a trace. But this time at Wangyue Palace, he escaped so easily. Besides Wang An's help, could it be that Ye Feng has an inside man? *Sweat*

The boy didn't say anything, he just grabbed me and ran forward. It was so dark that I couldn't see the expression on his face.

"Xiao Ye," I glared at him, gritting my teeth as I continued, "where are we going now?"

Alas, I was just hoping to glean some secrets about the Yun family from Wang An, but now it seems impossible again.

He remained silent, but suddenly stopped and pulled me behind him. I was a little dizzy and peeked out from the side. I could vaguely see three figures rushing toward us. When they got closer and stopped not far in front of us, I steadied myself and looked more closely. They were the three guards of Zhilan Palace.

Not only the three of them, but also the four secret guards who had separated from us on the roof to deal with the palace guards suddenly appeared out of nowhere, appearing between us and the traceless ones.

"What's going on here?" I asked, somewhat puzzled. Why did these two groups look like they were about to fight?

"Your subordinate has come to escort the princess back to camp." Wuyin bowed as he spoke to me, but as soon as he moved, the guards on this side also moved, making me a little nervous.

"Going back to camp is fine, why make such a fuss?" Wait, I turned to look at Ye Feng in confusion. Was this kid not going to take me back to the military camp?

"The battlefield is dangerous. My master has instructed me to take you to a safe place first," Ye Feng said softly to me, his eyes fixed on the three azure figures ahead.

I see. With this battle nearing its end, we don't know how brutal it will be. I think retreating now is absolutely the right thing to do. The fox's decision is quite wise, hehe.

"Wu Yin, how is Xi Lan?" It's a little strange. If it was just a coincidence that Xi Lan and the fox sent people to rescue me at the same time, why didn't we run into those three people in the palace, but instead encountered them here? It's as if Xi Lan anticipated Ye Feng's actions tonight, and the three of them were waiting outside the palace.

"Please come back to camp with me, Princess. You will then be able to see the Sixth Prince." Wu Yin didn't approach any closer, but there was something strange about the way he spoke.

"Night Breeze?" I turned to the night breeze and whispered.

Ye Feng finally turned his head and glanced at me, then lowered his head and whispered, "Young Master, rest assured, the Sixth Prince of Tianqing is fine."

I nodded, feeling a little relieved, and said to Wuyin, "Wuyin, please tell Xilan for me that things will get more and more dangerous. Rather than having me distract everyone, I'd better go somewhere else to avoid trouble for now. Tell him to take good care of his injuries, and I'll contact him when the time comes."

After I finished speaking, I gestured for Ye Feng to leave with me. But before we could move, Wu Yin and the others had already moved towards us. As soon as they moved, the four guards blocked their way again, and the two groups actually started fighting.

Far from the battlefield (Part 2)

What is all this nonsense? I was so angry I felt like I was going to faint, and I yelled, "Stop! All of you, stop!"

It did have some effect, at least. I watched as the entangled figures immediately separated and returned to their previous positions, as if they hadn't made a move at all.
