Gifted Bride of the Sinned Prince

Chapter 401



Kang Huijuan beamed at Li Hua. He was already annoyed by Lóng Wei, who humiliated him in the palace. Now, in his absence, his wife had done that work. She insulted him in the market in front of so many people.

Li Hua started to walk while the soldiers ahead of her also resumed walking. Kang Huijuan stepped away from her route.

Feng Lao asked Li Hua why she said all those things. “Kang Huijuan is not a nice person. He may try to harm you,” he worriedly said.

“Since when you started fearing? Nothing will happen. His entry is banned in the palace,” Li Hua stated. She wondered why the King pardoned him so quickly. Something was fishy. The King acted strangely. He did not pardon Lóng Wei when he was not even at the fault. Once she solved her matter with the Queen, she would keep an eye on the King.

While contemplating all such things, she reached the place which the Queen had mentioned in the message. She looked at the stalls, where people had gathered. Seeing her, the people were dispersed and Li Hua stepped ahead. She looked at the local handmade jewelry which looked beautiful to her. Though the quality was low, she thought to buy one pair of bangles and asked the seller about the price. She did not bargain for it and took out the coins to give him.

Feng Lao looked around to make sure that no one would approach Li Hua. He still had not seen Xiwan and Chang Shi around. While Li Hua forwarded her hand to give the coins, a soldier fell on the ground as an arrow hit her. She turned to look and within seconds, everyone started shouting and screaming. Feng Lao stood before her, wondering from where the arrow was shot.

People started running around and a chaotic situation arose. She turned to look when the stall owner from where she was buying the bangles, unsheathed the sword to attack on her. Feng Lao saw that and he also unsheathed the sword in his hand. However, someone shot an arrow at that man and he died.

Feng Lao caught Li Hua and decided to take her to a safer place. They were stopped by two masked men aka assassins. The soldiers, who had accompanied them, handled those assassins. Everything went according to the plan. Feng Lao took her towards the same route which they had followed.

.....

Ye Yujin was also present in the market in a disguise. He was on the top of the building scrutinizing everything. It seemed to him that this plan of the Queen was leaked. Li Hua and Feng Lao were saved too easily. Even Feng Lao was walking fine. Zhu Liling had told him that she had mixed the pill into the custard. Its only one sip was enough to put the person’s movementes to a halt.

Feng Lao and Li Hua stopped to see three more assassins on their way. Feng Lao looked behind and saw they were surrounded by two more from the back. Li Hua saw Chang Shi, who attacked one of them, but the assassin’s reflex were fast and he dodged the attack. Feng Lao had no other way, but to fight those three assassins ahead.

Ye Yujin found out that Li Hua was trapped. He ordered the shooter beside him to kill Li Hua with a single blow. The shooter complied with Ye Yujin’s command. Ye Yujin wondered where were the rest shooters. He took the steps back and turned to leave when a blade pointed at him.

“Do not move even an inch. I will not hesitate to kill you,” Xiwan said. He had covered his face with the black clothing and only his eyes were visible. Ye Yujin felt stuck. Xiwan told the shooter to lower the bow, but he did not do that. Instead, he withdrew it from the bow, direct towards Li Hua.

Li Hua saw the arrow in her direction when a man in a high speed stood before her and at the same time, he hit at the arrow with the sword in his hand. Li Hua recognized the man before him. It was her brother, Xu Zifan.

Xiwan hit at Ye Yujin’s head with the hilt of the sword and then he killed the shooter. Ye Yujin felt concussion and held his head. He shook his head when Xiwan gave him the second blow on the cheek and he got unconscious.

Xu Zifan turned to Li Hua and asked her if she was alright. Li Hua nodded her head. “I am taking her away,” Xu Zifan told Feng Lao, who had yet to kill two more assassins while Chang Shi was busy with another assassin. Xu Zifan held Li Hua’s right hand and ran away with her from there.

Hei Chengxi had sent some more soldiers, but he himself did not come out. The Commander had also come and bowed at Li Hua. He asked both Li Hua and Xu Zifan to follow him. He told the soldiers to control the situation in the market. Li Hua got into the carriage with her brother and left for the palace, followed by five highly trained horsemen as bodyguards.

“What were you doing outside?” Xu Zifan asked in a fury.

“The Queen planned all this, so I had to reveal her true face,” Li Hua stated. She then narrated her brother the entire incident.

“Have you lost your mind? How could you even think of doing all this?” Xu Zifan scolded Li Hua.
