Chapter 52: Surprise Attack (1)
The more you can't get something, the more you want it. This is everyone's nature. It is precisely because of this nature that people's hearts are always scarred. They would rather hurt themselves deeply than let the loved ones get hurt. It doesn't matter whether you love or not, there is only love. It is difficult to love someone, and it is even more difficult to hate someone . The most painful thing about loving someone who may never get a response in your entire life is that you cannot even hate him.
After a day's rest in the annex, Yinyin's health improved significantly, and the group continued to head to Weicheng as planned. They were originally moving forward very smoothly, but suddenly a group of people rushed over and disrupted the order of the team...
"Protect the princess."
As soon as he saw this, Zhou Yan immediately ordered to protect Yin Yin without finding out the enemy's target. It seems that nothing is more important to him than Yin Yin. Even at this dangerous moment, fortunately Zhou Yan was riding a horse next to Yin Yin's carriage.
In the chaos, Yin Yin lifted the small curtain inside the sedan and watched Zhou Yan and others surrounding the carriage she was riding in and fighting with the assassins. The assassins' target was still unclear, but no one seemed to notice in the chaos. Seeing Zhou Yan fighting the assassins desperately to protect her, Yin Yin didn't know what to say.
There were only a dozen or twenty assassins, while Zhou Yan's guards numbered several hundred. The assassins came for Yin Yin's carriage at the beginning, but were quickly subdued by Zhou Yan and his men. Although they killed many of the assassins in the battle, they still left some alive, although they were seriously injured...
"Tell me, who sent you? What's your purpose?"
Zhou Yan pointed his sword at several seriously injured assassins who were caught by his subordinates and interrogated them. However, as soon as Zhou Yan finished his questioning, the other parties fell to the ground one after another. Since they were all masked, Zhou Yan certainly didn't know what had happened. But a possibility immediately flashed through his mind, and he immediately stepped forward to lift the other party's mask, and sure enough, they had all committed suicide by taking poison.
"That's outrageous. "
“Your Majesty!!”
Seeing that the assassins all committed suicide , Zuo Yu began to worry, thinking that there was something fishy going on. How could Zhou Yan not know this? It was not the first time that they committed suicide by taking poison after failing. It was clear that the other party's target was certain.
“…Yan!”
A familiar call brought Zhou Yan back to reality while he was thinking. He turned around and saw Yin Yin getting off the carriage and running towards him. How long had it been since he heard this familiar call?
"Why did you come down? It's too dangerous. There might be assassins around..."
While immersed in the familiar calling voice, Zhou Yan did not forget the current situation and immediately became cautious.
"Are you okay?"
Zhou Yan had just finished talking when Yin Yin interrupted him the next moment he came to him. From her anxious expression, it seemed that she was concerned about him? Hearing the long-lost call and receiving Yin Yin's concern, it seemed like a dream to Zhou Yan at this moment...
"…I'm fine."
Trying hard to suppress the joy in his heart at the moment, Zhou Yan answered with a slight smile.
"Very good."
Hearing Zhou Yan say that everything was fine , Yin Yin breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously. Looking at the dead assassins and her own soldiers around her, Yin Yin's heart suddenly became bitter. She moved away from Zhou Yan and came to a soldier who was standing with the help of his companions because of his injury. The injured soldier's right arm was bleeding, and the bright red liquid flowed from his fingertips continuously onto the white snow. The snow under his feet had already been dyed bright red. Seeing such a serious injury, tears welled up in Yin Yin's eyes. She stretched out her trembling hands to lift his injured arm. This move instantly sobered up the injured soldier who was a little fainted due to excessive bleeding. The others were also shaken. Not caring about other people's eyes at all, Yin Yin took out the silk scarf from her waist and bandaged the wound. Although she knew that it would be impossible to stop the bleeding completely, she still wanted to do it.
At this time, Xue Han and Xiuying also came over. Yin Yin seemed to sense something and slowly turned to Xue Han, staring at him with tearful eyes: "Save him..."
Anyone could tell that Yinyin's tone was one of pleading. All the soldiers couldn't believe that Yinyin, as a princess, was actually pleading for a wounded soldier? Moreover, even if there was no pleading, as long as he said one word, Xue Han would go all out. Being pleaded by Yinyin made Xue Han speechless. He walked forward and took the soldier's wounded arm from Yinyin's hand. The white silk scarf that Yinyin had tied for him was completely soaked in blood.
"Xiuying, go get the medicine box."
"yes!"
Xue Han felt that the soldier's entire right arm was likely to be scrapped, but in order not to disappoint Yin Yin's first plea, he used all his skills to treat him. While Xue Han was treating the soldier, no one spoke, not a sound. Even Zhou Yan watched in silence. In the middle, he whispered an order to Zuo Yu. It seemed that he had not forgotten that they were in danger.
Time passes by little by little.
Everyone's attention was focused on Xue Han's treatment of the soldier . Those who had never seen Xue Han's medical skills finally understood how high his medical skills were, which shocked people. From stopping bleeding to suturing, every move was clean and neat, and more importantly, his speed was amazing, so fast that people couldn't keep up with him. And when he treated the wound, he treated every part of the wound very carefully; Xue Han himself didn't care about other people's eyes at all. According to his own opinion, if the treatment time was delayed due to slow speed, the soldier's arm would definitely not be saved, and this would disappoint Yin Yin's expectations. This would undoubtedly be a lifelong regret for Xue Han, who was famous for his medical skills, so he used all his skills and finally saved the soldier's arm as quickly as possible...
