Xiao Qing Ran gave Riko a meaningful glance, and the latter immediately understood.

Although he didn't know who this man was, he couldn't just watch as the young lady died.

Earlier, the man sneered and deliberately aimed the arrow at his knee. If the arrow had hit him, it would not have killed him, but his leg would definitely be crippled. He clearly knew the man's current physical condition and knew that he did not have any extra strength left to block the arrow.

As the third arrow approached, Zhao Qingfeng grasped the hilt of his sword instinctively wanted to block it. However, he could not even move his body slightly. His shoulder was already covered in blood and his face was pale not only because he was injured, but also because he had lost a lot of blood.

They had already mentioned it in their conversation just now. This person had been evading the chase for two months. It wouldn't be easy for him to last this long due to his exhaustion.

Zhao Qingfeng's gums were about to bleed, but he could only watch helplessly as the arrow flew towards him.

After a "peng" sound, the expected pain did not come. Zhao Qingfeng raised his head in astonishment. His eyes were filled with surprise as he asked, "You …"

Riko brandished the sword in her hand as she glanced disdainfully at the arrow that had been cut to the ground and sneered, "Our young miss has not been able to look down on filth for the past few days. It can be considered your luck. I advise you to scram now, lest you lose your lives in vain."

Actually, Zhao Qingfeng already knew that they were no ordinary girls the first time Riko made a move. However, he thought that their skills were only for personal use. No matter what, he could not be hostile towards these men.

He frowned and lowered his voice. "You can't beat them. Let's go."

"How do you know without fighting?" Xiao Qing Ran covered her stomach with one hand as the corner of her mouth slightly raised from the angle of her jaw carried some other meaning.

This kind of gentle yet cold attitude made Zhao Qingfeng's heart skip a beat. However, this breathtaking moment had passed, and he felt that he had recovered some of his strength, so he staggered up on his sword, "This is none of your business. It's best if you don't get involved in this muddy water. These people are not as easy as you think they are, especially …"

He paused for a moment, his gaze sweeping across her stomach. "Although breaking out of this encirclement might be a little difficult, it shouldn't be a problem for your maidservants to take you away safely."

Although he said this, in reality, Zhao Qingfeng was very unsure.

"I don't need you to worry about that. I just have a question to ask young master after the world is settled." Xiao Qing Ran twirled her finger as she spoke with a hidden meaning, "I just hope that Young Master can tell me the truth when the time comes."

Zhao Qingfeng did not understand, and before he could say anything, Riko raised her sword and charged at him under Xiao Qingran's hints.

"A little girl who hasn't even grown hair yet dares to challenge laozi? You're overestimating yourself!" The people on the other side rushed up together with the intention to kill all three of them.

The coachman, who went to tie up the horse, coincidentally came back. Seeing that the two groups of people were fighting, he rushed over to protect Xiao Qingran.

The two of them did not seem to be at a disadvantage even when facing off against eight people's swords.

On the other side, Zhao Qingfeng was on tenterhooks. On the other hand, Xiao Qingren found a rock and sat down extremely calmly. He even patted the empty space beside him and raised his eyebrows: "Do you want to come and sit?"

Zhao Qingfeng looked at her with a strange gaze. He felt that he had been blinded when he first saw her in the midst of the purple orchids. This woman was definitely not ordinary. Just which normal girl would behave like this?

Xiao Qingyi did not care about his gaze. She rubbed her belly, curled her lips and said: "It's not convenient for a pregnant person to move. If you stand for too long, it's easy for you to be tired. Please excuse me."

Putting aside the decorations, Xiao Qing Qing was indeed very beautiful. Su Lian was the most talented girl in the capital back then, and as her child, her looks naturally wouldn't be any worse. Her smile made people's eyes light up, but under such circumstances, Zhao Qingfeng only felt that she was hiding something, and there was also a faint sense of crisis.

The leader was not a fool. He had brought a mission with him, and had lost so many people in two months. If he could not finish what his master had told him, then he would not be able to keep his life.

Thinking this way, he simply ordered three or four people to drag Li Fei and the others and had the rest deal with Zhao Qingfeng first.

The group was suddenly replaced by two people. Li Er knitted her eyebrows as she jumped towards Xiao Qing, not allowing those people to get close to her. As the two sides were locked in a stalemate, the whinnies of a strong horse suddenly came from afar.

Xiao Qing Ran raised her head again to look into the man's cold and somewhat angry eyes.

"Your Highness!" Riko's eyes lit up, "Miss, the prince is here!"

The smile in Xiao Qing's eyes instantly disappeared. She twitched her mouth and rubbed her temples helplessly. "This man really came at the right time."

Come on, she wouldn't need to go out for the next month.

"Prince?" Zhao Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, but he soon thought of something. He raised his head and looked towards the man in the python robe. He subconsciously said two words, "Su Qianhan!"

Xiao Qing Qing narrowed her eyes. This person's reaction confirmed her thoughts. However, before she could ask, she was interrupted by Su Qian Han.

Her wrist was quickly pinched by someone, and her body was pulled into a warm embrace along with it. That violent collision caused Xiao Qing to unconsciously frown.

Can't this man pay more attention?

She curled her lips, but before she could raise her head to explain, Su Qianhan scolded her in a loud voice, "Xiao Qingran, I can see that you are looking down on me more and more. You're really bold. I've already ordered you to stay here, but you still dare to sneak out!"

The corner of Xiao Qingran's mouth raised in a helpless expression: "I just came out to get some fresh air. Aren't you being a little too excessive?"

"Passed? This King did it for your own good, you are really... " The hatred in Su Qianhan made the roots of his teeth itch. If it wasn't for the fact that they were waiting on him outside, he would have already done so.

He pinched her wrist and quickly sized her up. After confirming that she was uninjured, he spoke in a cold voice, "Just you wait. This king will deal with you when I get back!"

He had just returned to his residence when he heard that this damnable woman had ran out on her own. If it wasn't for the fact that he had sent someone to protect her, he would have to see what she would do today!

Xiao Qingyi shrugged her shoulders like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water. She pursed her lips towards the outside: "Then we still have to get rid of these people first."

Su Qian Han turned his head and looked at them. With annoyance and impatience, he said, "Sudden wind, don't leave a single one alive."

"Yes sir!"

Just as he finished his sentence, a blood-curdling screech sounded from the other side.

Xiao Qingxi frowned as she felt that the mournful and unpleasant sound of the voice caused her to unconsciously move her body. Su Qianhan thought that she wanted to see through it but couldn't agree, so she pressed her body into her embrace. Her voice carried a hint of fire: "Be more obedient, don't move recklessly!"

"What are you doing? I can't breathe. "

This man had been like this ever since they met. He hadn't changed at all in the past two years. Wasn't she just a child?

Su Qian Han pressed her head against his chest, preventing her from looking out. With his other hand, he grabbed her moving wrist and threatened, "If you don't obey now, I'll deal with you!"

The corner of Xiao Qing's mouth twitched. She knew that this bastard dared to do such a thing. Forget about the little bastards, there were even outsiders here.

She was angry to the point of gnashing her teeth, but she didn't dare to make any more noise. She obediently lay in his embrace, waiting for the wind to blow outside and settle the matter.

Seeing that she was being so obedient, Su Qian Han placed her hand on her waist, then pulled her into his embrace. The hand on her wrist released its grip and took out a bottle of something from her bosom.

He opened the bottle and a faint fragrance instantly drifted out, covering all the other odors. He placed it under her nose and let her carefully smell it.

Although Su Qian Han knew that this was the normal reaction after pregnancy and felt heartache, he had Liu Suifeng specially make this powder, which was made from a hundred different kinds of herbs and herbs. Smelling it would reduce his nausea.

At first, Xiao Qing wanted to vomit due to the bloody smell, but she subconsciously leaned towards the man's hand.

Her half-bent body was slightly arched, and her eyes were no longer as cold and haughty as they were before. The difference between her actions made Zhao Qingfeng's eyes quiver, and he suddenly had a cold and cold gaze on his body.

The latter froze for a moment before raising his head to meet Su Qianhan's dark gaze. He pursed his lips as a hint of threat appeared in his gaze.

Zhao Qingfeng's pale face revealed some embarrassment. He unconsciously looked away.

Su Qianhan felt a little anxious. He touched the waist of the person in his embrace and really wanted to pinch her.

She was really capable. She had just come out and she had already recruited another man, causing her to become even more restless.

In order to reduce the crime, Tornado had great eyesight. It wasn't enough to get rid of that group of people, so he directly sent his men to drag those people's corpses to the side so that he could save them from being seen by his wife.

"Your Highness, everything is ready." The Whirlwind cupped his fist and stepped forward to report.

Su Qian Han nodded and then walked back with the man in his arms, "Prepare the carriage and return to the palace."

"Yes."

"Wait a moment." Xiao Qing suddenly leaned out of the man's embrace and said to Zhao Qingfeng at the side, "Come with us if you're injured."

Zhao Qingfeng held onto his shoulder with one hand. His wound had already been completely ripped open, and his clothes on his right shoulder were already stained red with blood. He glanced at the person behind her and smiled embarrassedly, "Thank you for what you did just now, but there's no need. I'm alone …"

"Your horse has already run away, and the nearest city has to be some distance away. With your current condition, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold on until you find a doctor." Xiao Qing raised her eyebrows and said, "Furthermore, I still have something to ask you."
