Chapter 686: Only after losing something do you realize its importance
Xiao Yan'an suddenly felt something strange, and with a swing of his sword, he blocked an arrow, which fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, a second shot came towards their direction!
Ji Chuhe and Xiao Yan'an both realized that the arrow was aimed at Ji Chuhe.
It seems that it is not enough for Chang Ru to get rid of the Princess Taichang, she really has to sacrifice Ji Chuhe's life.
However, with such a big chess game, is Chang Ru sure that everything is under her control?
For example, the Li family.
Does Chang Ru know what happened to Li now?
"Prince, be careful!" Rong Song quickly stood in front of Xiao Yan'an and swept away the arrow.
The guards around Prince Huaiyang immediately cut the reins of the carriage, and two of them pushed the wheels of the carriage together to overturn it to the ground.
The carriage was stuck right in the rubble, leaving room underneath for someone to hide.
Xiao Yan'an hugged Ji Chuhe and hid inside.
Mianzhu was also pushed in by the guards.
The space here is too small, only enough for two people to hide.
"Mianzhu, take good care of the madam." Xiao Yan'an gave instructions and rushed out to fight.
"Prince! The arrow is poisonous!" Ji Chuhe reminded loudly.
When the arrow was swept to the ground just now, she saw the color of the arrowhead. The green color on it must be stained with poison.
"I understand!" Xiao Yan'an nodded to Ji Chuhe.
"Be careful!" Ji Chuhe reminded again, with a hint of worry in his tone.
"Don't be afraid, ma'am. I'll be fine."
Ji Chuhe's concern made Xiao Yan'an feel warm in his heart.
The archers on the mountain watched Ji Chuhe hide, unable to do anything to her for the time being, so they could only concentrate all their firepower on the Princess Taichang.
"Princess Taichang must be killed!" Deputy General Cheng gave the order.
The situation of the Princess Taichang was not so good.
The nanny beside her had been shot by an arrow and fell to the ground, dying.
The carriage had been smashed and could not withstand the attack of the crossbow. Arrows kept penetrating the body of the carriage and shooting in.
She could only use the surviving maid as a human shield.
"Princess Taichang, are you okay?" Chang Yi's voice sounded not far away.
"Chang Yi, protect the emperor!" the Princess Royal shouted.
"Shield bearers, get ready! Protect the Princess Grand Princess's carriage." Chang Yi gave the order.
Suddenly, the shieldmen surrounded the carriage.
"The rest of you, get up the mountain. They are just occupying the advantageous terrain, and there are not many of them! As long as we rush up the mountain, we will have a chance to wipe them out!" Chang Yi shouted to the other soldiers.
Some of the guards of Prince Huaiyang and Princess Taichang also rushed towards the mountain.
The chaos just now has improved a little, and they now have room to fight back.
Deputy General Cheng looked at the people who were getting closer and closer to them and felt anxious.
Not only was Ji Chuhe not eliminated, but even the Princess Dowager was protected.
I don’t know if any of the poisonous arrows they shot just now hit the Princess Taichang.
When he thought about the sacrifices he made for the young lady's plan, he wished he could kill the Princess Dowager himself!
He took out a bow from the ground, lit the arrow beside him, and shot it at the Princess Taichang's carriage.
Several arrows hit the Princess Taichang's carriage. Some arrows ignited the curtains, which immediately caught fire. The Princess Taichang was choked by the thick smoke and couldn't breathe.
When Xiao Yan'an saw that the carriage was on fire, he turned back to protect the carriage where Ji Chuhe was hiding.
The flaming arrows shot towards them. He waved his sword and blocked the flaming arrows one by one!
Rong Song did not dare to relax and always paid attention to Xiao Yanan's safety.
Chang Yi rescued the princess from the carriage with great effort, and the men holding shields immediately protected her.
"Wanwan!" Chang Yi shouted and grabbed someone in the carriage. When he saw that it was Princess Taichang's maid, he immediately let go and grabbed another one.
There were only three maids in the carriage.
After confirming all three, none of them was the person he was looking for.
A wine jar rolled down from the corner of the carriage.
This wine jar was given by him to the Princess Royal. The Princess Royal said it was a gift for him.
The mouth of the jar was covered with a blanket, and it felt like there was something inside, but I didn't know what it was.
At this moment, he didn't know what he was thinking. He didn't continue to look for Li, but went to see what was in the jar.
The jar was a bit heavy, and he felt something was wrong as soon as he touched it.
A strong smell of blood came over.
He pulled back the blanket and saw a scene that he would never forget!
He was so scared that his legs went limp and he collapsed to the ground.
"Wanzong?" He was not sure whether the person in the jar was Li Wan.
The face was ashen in color and its appearance was disfigured. The mouth and chin were all ulcerated, and the eyes were tightly closed. It didn't look like there was any breath in the face.
Chang Yi still reached out and probed her nose.
Sure enough, there was no breath at all.
In this situation, it is even impossible to tell how long she has been dead.
Chang Yi secretly clenched his fists, and a strong sense of anger surged in his heart!
This is the gift that Princess Taichang wants to give him!
She actually killed Li in such a cruel way!
How dare she?
Li is Chang Ru's biological mother. In the future, Chang Ru will be the queen who rules the country!
How could she not dare?
Who wouldn't she dare to kill as long as she didn't like them?
Chang Yi suddenly laughed.
Ji Chuhe heard the laughter from a distance.
Chang Yi discovered Li’s fate?
The Princess Royal suddenly asked for a wine jar. Without having to think, I knew what she was going to do.
If Chang Yi really cared about Li when he was talking to her, he would still have a chance to save her.
But, he didn't.
In order to please the Princess Taichang, he personally handed Li to the Princess Taichang, who then tortured and killed her.
Chang Yi suddenly rushed towards the Princess Taichang who was protected by a shield like a madman and grabbed her collar.
"You killed Li Wan!"
The princess looked at Chang Yi fearlessly and asked coldly, "Shouldn't she die?"
She held up the wound on her hand to Chang Yi, "Look at what this is! Why do you think my wound has not healed for so long? That was poisoned by Li through your mother!"
Chang Yi was stunned for a moment.
"No, it's impossible!"
"Impossible? Then what's the point of my being poisoned? Chang Yi, for your sake, I only punished Li and not your mother. I'm already showing you special favor! What else do you want from me? Release Li as well?"
Chang Yi felt like the blood vessels in his head were about to burst!
His mind was filled with the image of Li's tragic death, and Li's voice kept echoing in his mind.
"General, please give me a way out. You and the Princess Taichang have achieved the right result. I can become a nun and live with the Buddha by my side for the rest of my life. I will pray for you and the Princess Taichang."
