The man who had been conceited a moment ago was completely dumbfounded. What? Even he dares to move! Who wouldn't give some face to Lu Huan in this world? Was it because his face wasn't big enough and his demeanor wasn't good enough?

"Wait!" He still wanted to buy some time.

However, the man in black did not care. He raised his saber and charged forward. Lu Huan Zhi did not know any martial arts. Seeing that something was wrong, he hurriedly pulled Su Zhi onto the horse and ran towards Xuan City.

The leader of the assassins took the crossbow off his back, and held three long arrows in his hand, ready to fire at any moment. Squinting his eyes, he pulled his wrist and fired three arrows at the same time, one at the back, one at the head and the other at the horse's legs.

'Bang bang! '

Two clashing sounds of blades and swords came from behind Lu Huan Zhi. Three sharp arrows were shot out by the secret guards following behind her. It was unknown if the leader of the men in black was an expert at shooting, or if the hidden guard had failed, but the last arrow still managed to pass through the interception and hurt the pony's hind hooves.

The horse whinnied in pain as it retracted its hooves and slowed down.

"Little White, hold on!" After we return to the city smoothly, this prince will find a wife for you.

Little White? Su Zhi's eyelids twitched as she looked at the completely black horse. This man had a style that resembled a bean bun.

"We... It should be able to safely escape, right? " Su Zhi hugged Lu Huan's waist. The wind that was blowing towards her made her unable to speak clearly.

"Relax, no problem .."

Before he could finish his words, two men in black, who were spreading a net, appeared on the road in front of them. Lu Huan Zhi reacted quickly. He turned the horse around and dodged to the side.

On the side of the road was soft yellow mud, and the horse, carrying two men, soon sank.

"Aiya, Lil 'White, why don't you jump!"

Su Zhi looked at the situation on the surface of the sea and suggested to dismount. "This place isn't suitable for a horse to pass through. They'll fall in. Let's get off."

Lu Huan Zhi had no choice but to dismount. The black-clothed men behind him quickly caught up to him.

"It's over. They caught up so quickly."

"Don't worry, although this prince doesn't know martial arts, the guards are all top class masters, one top ten!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the guard fighting in the front was kicked away by the man in black. Lu Huan Zhi was so shocked that she could not even close her jaw. She angrily waved her fan and scolded, "Get up and continue fighting! A bunch of rice buckets. What's the use of this prince raising you!"

Su Zhi rolled her eyes, grabbed his sleeve and pulled him back, "Alright, something's wrong, let's hurry up and go."

Lu Huan's mouth was filled with curses, but her legs were still effective. She dragged Su Zhi and ran towards Xuan City's city gate.

The two of them continued to flee in the direction of Xuan City. However, no matter how much they charged, they were both vicious assassins who forcefully blocked their path.

"This won't do, the road we used to come here has been cut off. There are too many assassins, and we can't break through!"

Although Su Zhi was frightened, her mind was still relatively sharp. Very soon, she found some clues.

Lu Huan clenched her teeth and pulled her away in the opposite direction, "I know how to go back. Follow me."

With the protection of the secret guards, the black clothed man was gradually losing. Although he could not catch up quickly, he still did not want to let go and retreat.

The two of them did not dare to relax and chose a hidden path to enter.

"Rumble!"

The sky had been gloomy for the whole morning, but finally came the muffled sound of thunder, and a bolt of green lightning streaked across the cloudy sky.

"I can't be that unlucky, can I?" I can't be so unlucky.

Lu Huan's voice was still sobbing, but he was already tired and was gasping for air.

Su Zhi's physical strength was even worse than his. She was already gritting her teeth as she ran for her life.

"First..." "Don't run like hell. Let's find a place to shelter from the rain. If it rains like this, I'll catch a cold."

Lu Huan Zhi also could not run anymore, but he still held onto her hand and never let go.

"Previously, we were strolling around the nearby col and knew that there was a cave nearby. Let's take a look."

Before the two of them could find the legendary cave, heavy rain began to fall.

Su Zhi quivered from the rain and complained incessantly, "What happened to the spring rain? Did the oil have water in it?"

"Enough nonsense, hurry up and run!"

They ran around in the rain, almost losing their way. There was no one around, not even a deserted farmhouse. The ground was slippery from the rain, making it more difficult to run away. The two of them were so tired that they wanted to find a place without rain to sleep.

"Up ahead is a 30,000-meter tall pine tree. I remember that."

Lu Huan pulled Su Zhi along while they staggered and stumbled. Finally, they found a cave to shelter from the rain.

When they entered the cave, both of them were completely drenched. The spring rain was chilly, so cold that it caused one's entire body to tremble.

"Let's stay here for a while. We'll leave after the rain stops."

Su Zhi nodded. The rain seeped into her clothes. She hugged her arm and sneezed loudly.

Lu Huan wanted to be a hero and take off his clothes to give to her, but he found that he was also wet. He had no choice but to give up on this idea, "Find a way to burn your clothes dry, otherwise you'll catch a cold."

Su Zhi said with concern, "But if we start a fire, will we be seen by the assassins?"

"It won't, it's raining outside. If I don't go out on the smoke, even if I go up, I wouldn't be able to see it in the dark."

This made sense to her. To be safe, she found some dried branches from the cave entrance to block the way.

It was dark outside and the cave was hidden by the branches, making it even darker inside.

She wanted to get some tools for lighting a fire from the system, but she was afraid that Lu Huan Zhi would find it difficult to explain himself, so she said, "Sorry for troubling Your Highness to turn around, I want to take off a piece of clothing."

Lu Huan Zhi was usually a cynic, but he still did not forget his noble nature. Without a word, he turned around.

Su Zhi opened the system, took out a lighter, and lit up a branch beside her. Only then did she slowly say that she was done.

"Hey, you're amazing! How did you start a fire in such a short amount of time?"

"I brought some flint. Let's not talk about it for now. Come closer and roast your clothes."

Lu Huan Zhi didn't say anything else and obediently walked closer to the bonfire.

"Gu gu gu ~"

After a morning of wandering around, the two of them had already started singing their empty plan. Su Zhi was more tired than hungry. Lu Huan Zhi, however, felt a little awkward.

"When I came, I hadn't even eaten lunch."

Su Zhi pursed her lips into a smile, took out two boxes of cake that she had casually taken out from the system and handed to him.

"Eat."

Lu Huan Zhi took the pastries in astonishment. Once again, he exclaimed, "Wow, so well-prepared."

Su Zhi smiled and murmured as she looked out into the rain, "I can see that the rain won't stop for a while. Once my clothes are dry, I'll think of a way to leave."

"Don't be so anxious. It's not easy to get a chance to be alone with this little beauty."

As Lu Huan was eating the pastries, her long and narrow peach blossom eyes once again returned to their teasing look, "Come, have a taste. It's not bad, just keep your strength on."

Su Zhi unhappily slapped his hand away and used a branch to stir the fire.

"You're in a good mood, aren't you afraid of being chased?"

"What am I afraid of? My fortune is great, even you are under my protection."

Although Lu Huan Zhi did not change his slovenly attitude, Su Zhi could not get angry at him. Counting that time at the palace, he had already helped her three times in a row.

If he hadn't arrived earlier today, she might have become a ghost under the blade.

"Your Highness, thank you." She felt guilty as she looked at the man who was eating the pastries and looking as wet as a wet chicken.

"Don't... If he had known earlier that he would be hacked to death, this prince would not have come. "

Su Zhi shook her head and smiled, shrugging her shoulders to show that she didn't mind.

"When that little girl, Qiu Hong, went to find me, I was still wondering why you kept rushing into the yamen."

In this regard, Su Zhi also felt helpless.

The chase today had let her clearly see that she was being targeted, and not just for money, but for her little life.

Who would want to put her to death?

"Speaking of which, you don't know who the person chasing you is, right?"

She shook her head, confused. "I really don't know."

After eating the pastries, Lu Huan Zhi clapped her hands and said, "Anyway, it won't be An Yang's doing. That little girl is jealous and secretly wants to make things difficult for us, but she won't do such a shady thing."

Su Zhi also felt puzzled. Since it wasn't An Yang, who else could she have offended?

"Ya, I know. It must be General Xiao's fault. Perhaps other than An Yang, there are also other women who have a crush on him. After he leaves this time, I'll take this opportunity to take your life. "

Knowing that Lu Huan Zhi was joking, she didn't take it to heart. However, he was right about one thing. What happened to Hua Manlou really did happen after Xiao Qian left.

The emperor had ordered him to investigate the purpose of the rebel leader's visit. Since he had just left, trouble kept looking for him. Even Su Zhi herself did not believe that this was not intentional.

However, she had indeed never offended anyone. Who would want to kill everyone?
