Chapter 20 The phoenix crown falls.

The sedan chair was played and beaten all the way, and in order to build momentum, Mr. Hua also ordered people to scatter copper coins along the way. Many people dropped along the way, and the scene was extremely lively.

Shen Mingjiao, who was sitting in the sedan chair, was spinning the apple. She was thinking about what had just happened. Who wanted to harm her?

Although her cousin was not close to her, he was a smooth man. Even if he really disliked her and wanted to punish her, he would not pick on this bone-set eye and use such a self-inflicted method.

As for Mr. Li, although she was targeted at everything before, she would not joke about her son's safety.

And Shen Qiang is a bastard who was raised by the Li family. He may have the heart to harm his brother-in-law, but he doesn't have the courage. But he must know something...

Then only Shen Mingyan is left.

Shen Mingjiao frowned. She had always found it difficult to understand Shen Mingyan. When she was a child, Shen Mingyan was arrogant and domineering, but she actually had no brains. Later, she seemed to suddenly become smarter.

Combined with her own, she originally guessed that the other person was reborn like herself.

How else to explain the fact that she took the initiative to hook up with Pei Ji! You must know that when she learned that Pei Ji's family was in trouble, Shen Mingyan cried and made a fuss about breaking off the engagement.

But now Shen Mingyan doesn't hesitate to set up her own brother to fall, just to cause trouble for her! It feels completely unreasonable.

The two are brothers and sisters, and the eldest cousin has always loved this sister. There are many ways to deal with her, but Shen Mingyan does not have to do this at all.

Unless...she doesn't care about her brother's life or death at all.

No matter how much a person experiences, the character engraved in his bones will never change. Although Shen Mingyan was arrogant and brainless when she was a child, she would never be so cold-blooded.

Thinking of this, she raised her eyebrows with interest, feeling that this matter was getting more interesting...

She intuitively knew that Shen Mingyan must know something terrible...

At this time, on the second floor of an inn, Su Qing stood in front of the window, staring at the vast procession of brides and the sky-high betrothal gifts sent out from Prince Su's Mansion.

She gritted her teeth and stared at Feng Lisheng, who was wearing red clothes. Although she couldn't see the expression on his face clearly from a distance, from his back, Su Qing inexplicably felt that he was happy at the moment.

Su Qing suppressed the sourness surging in her heart, turned around, and said to the maid as if nothing had happened: "Let's go to the East Palace."

At this moment, he desperately wanted to see Feng Qiyu and prove that her choice was correct.

It took about an hour to walk from the Hou Mansion to Prince Su's Mansion. Shen Mingjiao gradually dozed off while carrying a phoenix crown that was as heavy as a box of apples.

The team turned through the lively crowd and crossed Zhuque Street. The surrounding area gradually became quiet.

But at this moment, there seemed to be a rapid sound of breaking wind in the air. The dazed Shen Mingjiao vaguely heard the sound of a fierce fight and Xi Niang's scream. She sat up straight and suddenly,

Haitang opened the sedan curtain and said urgently: "Girl, there is... there is an assassin..."

Shen Mingjiao: "Approximately how many people are there?"

Haitang turned around and glanced quickly: "Three... about thirty people..."

Shen Mingjiao closed her eyes calmly: "Oh, that's okay."

With the abilities of Feng Wu and his group, plus Feng Lisheng, this number of people is just enough for them to warm up.

Haitang said with a bitter face: "But... Your Highness, they don't have weapons in their hands..."

Shen Mingjiao was stunned for a moment and then slapped her forehead suddenly.

Yes, today is her and Feng Lisheng's wedding. They are here to welcome the bride, so why would they wear weapons!

Shen Mingjiao became a little nervous now. She quietly opened a corner of the curtain.

No matter how powerful Feng Lisheng and the others are, they still have many constraints without weapons.

All I saw was a dense battle. A quick look revealed that these assassins were not weak in martial arts. Fortunately, Feng Wu and the others were not vegetarians either. Although they were somewhat constrained without weapons in their hands, no one was injured.

Feng Lisheng snatched the knife from the assassin's hand, and neatly dealt with the two assassins who were attacking behind him. He came to the sedan chair and said to Shen Mingjiao, "Don't come out inside." He glanced at the people fighting with the assassins.

"The big cows come here and protect the princess."

The people whose names were called quickly exited the battle circle and surrounded the sedan chair.

At this time, the battle had reached a fever pitch. Feng Wu and others were slightly better, but they were all injured. Some of the assassins fell to the ground, while the rest were furious and all used desperate moves.

Shen Mingjiao smelled the strong smell of blood in the air and couldn't help but think of the palace incident before her death in her previous life. Familiar people were pierced by arrows one by one. That was the real river of blood.

Her face turned a little pale, and she secretly shook the gold bracelet Cui Lingling gave her, feeling relieved immediately.

Xu Daniu, who was outside the sedan, was wary of the assassins around him and carefully comforted Shen Mingjiao: "Princess, don't be afraid, the prince is here?"

Shen Mingjiao said as calmly as possible: "Well, I believe you."

Seeing that their princess was not frightened to tears by this scene, Xu Daniu and others felt relieved. However, thinking of Wang Dashan's words last time, they fell silent again.

When Shen Mingjiao saw two black-clothed assassins flying towards them, her heart immediately lifted and she tightened her grip on the gold bracelet in her hand.

Xu Daniu and others also tensed up their bodies vigilantly, waiting for the assassin to come over, and then tried their best to meet him.

However, the two assassins stopped ten steps away from the sedan, glanced at a few people casually, then turned a corner and rushed towards Feng Lisheng desperately, as if they had never seen such a big sedan.

Xu Daniu and the others: "..." It doesn't seem like they were robbed of the bride.

Shen Mingjiao: "..." I can only say that these assassins are quite moral. At least they don't kill innocent people indiscriminately.

Seeing that these assassins were defeated, someone took out a smoke bomb from their arms and threw it, and white mist instantly rose in front of their eyes.

After a moment, the white mist dissipated, and the remaining assassins had escaped, leaving only a few corpses on the ground.

Xu Daniu muttered: "Have times changed? Didn't these gangs of assassins in the past like to commit suicide by biting open the poison sacs after failed assassinations? How can they use the tricks of the rivers and lakes now!"

The injured people simply bandaged their wounds, and the uninjured people began to clean up the area and check the bodies.

Shen Mingjiao held Haitang's arm and got out of the sedan chair.

The frightened Xi Niang stood up tremblingly, and looked at her hesitantly, wanting to say that the bride could not get off the sedan chair casually, but when she saw the blood on the ground that had not been cleaned up, she suddenly closed her eyes knowingly.

Mouthed.

Shen Mingjiao walked towards Feng Lisheng. When she got closer, because her skirt was too long and her head was covered with a hijab, she accidentally stepped on it and fell straight in the direction of Feng Lisheng.

Feng Lisheng took a step forward and supported her, but without paying attention, he stepped on a few golden beads that someone had dropped during the fight.

Just like that, driven by inertia, he followed the force of Shen Mingjiao's attack, and both of them fell to the ground.

At this critical moment, a rapid sound breaking through the air came towards us.

"Your Highness, be careful——"

Feng Lisheng, whose pupils were pinned down by Shen Mingjiao, was shocked and wanted to turn over, but the speed of the arrow was too fast!

Shen Mingjiao's mind went blank at this moment, and she felt the sound of breaking wind getting closer and closer to her. For a moment, she seemed to have suddenly returned to the moment before her death in her previous life.

In the same way, as Shuoer screamed, the rebel's sword shot straight towards her, and in the blink of an eye, it accurately penetrated her chest.

So she is going to die again! It’s still the same way!

She couldn't help but curse the God of Destiny in her heart, why should she enter Prince Su's Mansion first and then die?

Alas! She will never see those lovely treasures in the warehouse of Prince Su’s Mansion again!

This incident only happened in an instant, and everyone watched with horror as Li Xian's arrow shot straight towards the back of Shen Mingjiao's head.

Everyone subconsciously closed their eyes and couldn't bear to watch anymore, lamenting in their hearts, how much the princess must love the prince, so that she would rush forward to block his arrow without any care!

At this moment, they wanted to die instead of the princess. Such a good princess should always be with the prince.

Just when everyone thought that Shen Mingjiao would definitely die, they heard a "ding" sound and the arrow missed the huge gem on the top of Shen Mingjiao's phoenix crown.

Due to the impact, the heavy phoenix crown fell off, and a head of black hair hung down.

Shen Mingjiao climbed up with her limp body and carefully picked up the fallen phoenix crown.

She swore that she would never feel guilty again.
