Chapter 1363 I’m Going to Save Him

Only then did the guards react and gathered around to block the powerful crossbow.

Xiao Ziye fell to the ground.

The horse was frightened.

Zhao Yuanjing grabbed Yun Dai, jumped off the carriage, and landed behind a tree.

"Prince Xiao is still there!" Yun Dai grabbed Zhao Yuanjing's hand, "He was hit by an arrow! It's to protect me! Zhao Yuanjing, I'm going to save him!"

He fell to the ground and couldn't move. The Carriage Assassin's crossbows were everywhere and could easily be trampled.

Zhao Yuanjing held Yun Dai down and said in a deep voice: "Stay here and don't move, Bao Xing, stay close to protect her. I'll go rescue him."

"How can you do this?"

"Stay still, don't come out!"

Zhao Yuanjing took off his cloak and covered her body, covering the falling snow in the sky.

He himself jumped out, as fast as a cheetah.

Yun Dai grasped the bark of the tree tightly with both hands and watched as his figure got into the chaotic convoy and fought with the assassins who were chasing him.

After knocking over several assassins, he picked up Xiao Ziye, put him on his shoulders, and left quickly.

Zhao Shu, who was at the back of the motorcade, had already rushed over and led the guards to start a counterattack against the assassin.

With him around, the assassins were quickly defeated and fled.

Zhao Shu captured someone alive, but before he could find out the mastermind, the assassin committed suicide.

Zhao Shu shouted: "Treat the injured, collect the convoy, and check the artillery!"

The guards all responded and began to clean the battlefield.

This assassination went as quickly as it came.

Zhao Shu jumped off his horse, rushed to the emperor and empress, bent down and asked, "How is the emperor?"

Zhao Yuanjing put Xiao Ziye on the ground and said, "I'm fine."

Zhao Shu glanced at Yun Dai and saw that she was safe, so he said: "The number of assassins is not large, but they are obviously well prepared with their siege crossbows."

"We'll talk about this later. The most important thing right now is to send Prince Xiao back to Kyoto for medical treatment." Zhao Yuanjing said.

"I obey the decree."

Zhao Shu turned around to find an empty carriage and asked someone to carry Xiao Ziye aboard.

Several ministers of the Northern Qi Dynasty were also killed or injured. Seeing that their prince was seriously injured, the remaining three cried loudly, as if they were mourning their heirs.

Yun Dai also climbed into Xiao Ziye's carriage.

Zhao Yuanjing glanced at it but did not stop him.

He found another horse and followed it beside the carriage.

Yun Dai knelt down next to Xiao Ziye, watching his blood staining his clothes, and her heart was filled with fear.

"Sister, don't cry..." Xiao Ziye raised his hand with difficulty, trying to wipe her tears, "I was just hit by an arrow, I won't die."

Yun Dai held his hand and said tremblingly: "Prince Xiao, you must not die. Otherwise I will feel guilty for the rest of my life."

"If you don't hit the vital point, you won't die." Xiao Ziye forced a smile.

"Why are you blocking my arrow?"

"You are my sister, and as a brother... I should protect you." Xiao Ziye sighed, "It's a pity that it was too late to find you. If my father had known that your mother was pregnant with his child... I’ve already picked you up and taken you back.”

"Stop talking..."

Yun Dai cried and kept urging the carriage to go faster.

Fortunately, the place where the attack occurred was close to Kyoto.

A guard rode a horse to the palace and took Ouyang to the embassy to wait. As soon as Xiao Ziye arrived, he immediately began to treat him.

Just as Xiao Ziye said, no vital parts were injured, but the arrows from the city-defending crossbow were extraordinary, and Xiao Ziye's entire shoulder was penetrated by the arrows, which was extremely dangerous.
