She flipped over his head. The moment she landed on the ground, the blade pierced his back!

The man in black’s face twisted in pain. He turned around and slashed.

Clang!

His sword was broken!

“How is this possible?”

He looked at the other dagger in Su Xiaoxiao’s hand in disbelief.

“What weapon is this?”

Su Xiaoxiao said coldly, “You’re not worthy of knowing!”

On the other side, as Princess Hui An watched the two of them fight nervously, her heart in her throat.

The man in black was injured, but he still looked like he could fight.

What should she do?

“Princess!”

When Princess Hui An heard a familiar voice, she turned around and said in surprise, “Little Zhuozi! Why are you here?”

Xiao Zhuozi panted and said, “They captured me. It wasn’t easy for me to escape. After escaping, I’ve been searching for Your Highness! ” Princess Hui An glanced behind him. “Where’s Tao Hong? Where is she?”

Little Zhuozi’s eyes flashed. “I’m… not sure. Perhaps she’s imprisoned elsewhere. Princess, let’s hurry back to the palace!”

Princess Hui An said, “No, Miss Su is still there. I have to wait for her.”

Little Zhuozi said, “Princess!”

Princess Hui An insisted, “1 can’t leave her behind!”

Little Zhuozi said awkwardly, “But… you don’t know martial arts. It’s a hindrance to stay here. Why don’t you find a safe place to hide first?”

Princess Hui An said solemnly, “She risked her life for me. What kind of person am I if I hide on my own!”

Xiao Zhuozi had a headache. “I… I mean… Miss Su seems to be very skilled. She will definitely be fine.”

Princess Hui An looked at Little Zhuozi as if he was a fool. “Since she’s very skilled, shouldn’t we follow her even more? You and I don’t know how to fight. What if we encounter assassins?”

Little Zhuozi was speechless.

Princess Hui An was extremely stupid in the palace, but her brain was working well now.

Since the soft approach didn’t work, he could only use the hard approach.

Xiao Zhuozi unnoticeably took out a handkerchief that had been applied with knockout medicine. “Princess, sorry.” “What did you say?”

“I said, what do you think is over there?”

Princess Hui An turned around in the direction he was pointing.

A trace of coldness flashed across Little Zhuozi’s eyes. He reached out from behind Princess Hui An and suddenly raised the handkerchief.

At the critical moment, a dagger flew through the air and hit his shoulder!

He was sent flying by the huge force and fell heavily to the ground. His head hit a stone on the road and he died on the spot.

Princess Hui An heard the commotion and turned around in shock

The medicine that Little Zhuozi had scattered on the handkerchief fell to the ground.

“It’s knockout medicine!” said Su Xiaoxiao.

Xiao Zhuozi had taken out a handkerchief that had been applied with knockout medicine. “Princess, sorry.”

“How, how did this happen?

Her legs went weak as she grabbed Su Xiaoxiao’s wrist tightly. It was as though she was holding onto a life-saving straw.

“Hui An! ”

Xiao Duye rode his horse over from the night.

Princess Hui An’s eyes turned red. “Brother!”

Xiao Duye tightened his grip on the reins and hurriedly dismounted before the horse could stabilize. He strode towards Princess Hui An.

He held Princess Hui An’s shoulder and looked at her worriedly. “Hui An! Are you alright?”

Princess Hui An threw herself into his arms and wailed, “Brother!”

Xiao Duye was Concubine Yu’s son, and Concubine Yu’s backer was the Empress. The relationship between Kunning Palace and Qi Xiang Palace had always been tense, so Xiao Duye and Princess Hui An were not too close.

But no matter what, Xiao Duye was Princess Hui An’s elder brother.

After experiencing such a terrifying thing, Princess Hui An’s heart was extremely fragile. Seeing that her brother was so anxious to look for her, she could not help but feel a little dependent.

“Don’t be afraid. I’m here. I won’t let anyone hurt you anymore.”

As Xiao Duye comforted his sister, he took off his cloak and put it on Princess Hui An.

Princess Hui An asked with tears in her eyes, “Big Brother, why isn’t my third brother here?”

Xiao Duye said softly, “The few of us came out to look for you. Your third brother went elsewhere. You haven’t said if you’re alright?”

Princess Hui An cried, “My feet are so sore, and my hands hurt… They tied me up with ropes and didn’t give me food… They even forced me to change into such ugly clothes…”

Princess Hui An had grown up surrounded by stars. Before today, she had never suffered at all.

She had only been fighting losing battles with Princess Jingning, but those were fights between the two of them. She could not defeat Jingning.

Xiao Duye’s eyes were filled with heartache. “I’ll send you back to the palace now. Don’t worry, I’ll seek justice for you. By the way, where’s Little Zhuozi?”

A guard from the Eldest Prince’s residence said, “Your Highness, Little Zhuozi is here! He… he’s dead!”

“What?” Xiao Duye’s expression changed.

He glanced around and seemed to see Su Xiaoxiao. “Physician Su?”

Su Xiaoxiao walked over as if no one was around. She bent down and pulled out the dagger on Little Zhuozi’s shoulder. She took out a clean handkerchief and wiped it.

Xiao Duye said angrily, “You killed Little Zhuozi!”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “So what if I did?”

He had given her a stage, and she had gamely acted on it.

Princess Hui An hurriedly said, “Brother, don’t misunderstand. It was Little Zhuozi who wanted to drug me. Miss Su did it to save me… Although I don’t understand… why Little Zhuozi did that… I have been so good to him… Why did he treat me like this…”

Compared to being captured by an assassin, Little Zhuozi’s betrayal dealt her a greater blow.

Although Princess Hui An had grown up in the palace, Emperor Jing Xuan, Concubine Xian, and Xiao Zhonghua protected her extremely well.

She had grown up smoothly and had never experienced mutual deception. Even if she fought with Jingning, it was done openly.

Xiao Duye asked, “Did you see Little Zhuozi drug you with your own eyes? Or did she tell you?”

Xiao Duye interrupted Princess Hui An. “If she told you, it’s very likely that she threw out the medicine when she killed Little Zhuozi and lied that Little Zhuozi drugged you!”

Princess Hui An said seriously, “No!”

Xiao Duye reminded, “Hui An, she’s Jingnings friend.”

Princess Hui An snorted. “So what? She saved me tonight. Moreover, Jingning won’t harm me!”

“She only knows how to hit me.” Princess Hui An said bitterly in her heart.

Xiao Duye said earnestly, “Hui An, people’s hearts are unpredictable. You dont understand. Alright, Big Brother will settle the matters here. Go back to the palace first.”

“No way!”

Princess Hui An decisively came to Su Xiaoxiao. “Brother, I won’t allow you to take her away!”

Xiao Duye clenched his fists.

First, it was Jingning, and now it was Hui An. What kind of bewitching potion did this girl give his sisters, or did she know how to control people’s hearts?

Xiao Duye said seriously, “Men, bring Princess Hui An away.”

“Yes.” A cavalryman dismounted and came over.

Princess Hui An said, “Brother!”

Xiao Duye said with a complicated expression, “Sister, I’m sorry. When I go to Father later, I’ll naturally apologize to him!”

With that, he looked at Su Xiaoxiao coldly.

“Take her down!”

More than ten cavalrymen swarmed forward and surrounded Su Xiaoxiao.

At this moment, hurried hoofbeats suddenly surged from behind, shaking the entire ground.

The cavalry panicked.

Xiao Duye frowned and turned around in confusion.

A group of black heavy cavalry wearing cold armor and holding sharp spears came from the King of Hell’s palace with a murderous aura! A cavalryman exclaimed, “It’s the Qin family’s iron cavalry!”
