An Eight-year-old Princess novel Chapter 228

The headman of the secret guards was a middle-aged man. He was silent for a while before he said, "His Highness said we must protect your highness with our lives."

Yun Shang's face was pale with fright after several hours' running and scare. After a while, she laughed and pulled out the dagger from her boot, placing it against her neck. "If anything happens to father and mother, I'll die here. I'll wait and see how you explain it to Prince Jing." I'm good at martial arts. I can protect myself. Just go and find His Majesty and Lady Jin."

The secret guards looked up at Yun Shang. After a while, the middle-aged man nodded and waved at the people behind him, and the secret guards disappeared in front of Yun Shang.

Yun Shang sighed. If Ning Qian hadn't pretended to be the Empress in the palace and she had taken her revenge and asked all her people in the Jinluan Hall, she wouldn't have had to threaten Prince Jing's people like this.

The hidden guard looked around and did not find the traces of Emperor Ning and Lady Jin.

Yun Shang continued to walk forward. After another two forests, she would arrive at Laifeng City. What happened to father and mother? Yun Shang gradually calmed down. She frowned. If things went on as usual, their troops would have already passed the woods. But no trace of war could be found in the woods. Did father and mother come back to Laifeng City again?

Yun Shang then called two shadow guards to Laifeng City, and the rest followed her.

They walked for about two hours and arrived at a forest. This time, before they entered the forest, the secret guards were on their guard. "Your Highness, there's a sound in the forest ahead. There are many people."

Yun Shang shivered all over. She was about to walk towards the woods when a secret guard stopped her. "Be careful, Your Highness."

Yun Shang was worried, but she didn't lose her mind. She knew that if she rushed in, and if Xia Houjing and Li Jingyan were there, they wouldn't let her go.

She couldn't give them any more chance to threaten her mother or Prince Jing.

Yun Shang meditated for a while and said, "I have given up my horse. Let's go into the forest together. It's difficult to hide ourselves in such a chaotic place with so many things covered."

Then she jumped off the horse and went straight into the forest. The dark guard followed her in a hurry.

She crept into the forest through the grass. The sounds became clearer in the forest. There were sounds of killing, weapons colliding, and someone falling.

Yun Shang was hidden on a tree by the secret guards. They jumped from the crown to the crown. Everything in the forest could be seen clearly.

The fight was fierce. Yun Shang saw several people standing in front of a armor. She frowned, and one of them looked a little familiar. It took her a while to remember that he was the Grand Councilor Li Jingyan.

Since Grand Councilor Li was here, he should be with Xia Houjing. Is my father here?

Yun Shang ordered her guards to spare them and moved forward. There were dark groups of people in front of Li Jingyan and Xia Houjing. Yun Shang stared at them. They were dressed exactly like the corpses of the secret guards she had found before. The secret guards were here to protect her father and mother?

Yun Shang jumped forward, and fell on the ground after passing the black mass.

"Who is it?" The moment Yun Shang fell on the ground, two swords were placed on her neck.

"Stop! Princess Yun Shang is before you. Don't be so rude to Prince Jing's wife." Yun Shang turned to look at the man who was holding a sword on her neck, and asked anxiously, "are you my father's secret guards? Where are father and mother now? "

The shadow guards looked suspiciously at Yun Shang and the shadow guards behind her. Yun Shang reached out to her waist, and did not know when her token had disappeared. The sword was even closer to her neck.

The secret guards behind Yun Shang quickly took out their own token and said, "we are the secret guards of Prince Jing. We are ordered to protect Her Highness under the orders of Prince Jing."

The secret guards believed them. They took down the sword and bowed to Yun Shang. "I don't know it's Your Highness, we didn't mean to offend you. His Majesty and Lady Jin are still in the temporary imperial palace in Laifeng City, with other guards protecting them."

Yun Shang was surprised. She turned to the guard and asked, "father and mother said they are going back to the palace today. Didn't they go?"

The dark guard nodded, "yes. The Emperor doubted the Grand Councilor's spy in the temporary imperial palace, so he made the plot. He sent a message to the Prince that today's trip was to lure the snake out of the hole. "

Yun Shang was surprised and relieved. She knew that after so many years when her father had been in the throne, he couldn't have been so careless. He should have returned to the palace after getting everything ready.
