Chapter 427 Who is Who's Prey 2
There was an eerie silence in the deep forest.
On the towering tree, a figure dressed in black was swaying.
The sunlight was cut into pieces by the leaves, making it difficult to detect the existence of these people.
Lu Yingzhen rode his horse and hid in the bushes. His place was a small slope, so he could just see the intersection ahead.
As long as Lu Yuan and the prince show up, they will fall into the death trap he has set.
"Are you sure everything is foolproof?" Fu Yuxuan came behind Lu Heng and looked at the entrance with a gloomy look.
“Even if I die together with Lu Yuan today, I will not let him leave this forest.” Lu Heng said lightly.
All the hatred from his two lives will be resolved here.
If Lu Yuan were allowed to live, he would have no future or way to survive in the royal capital.
Not only him, his mother, and even the Bai family, Lu Yuan will never let them go.
Therefore, Lu Yuan must die.
Fu Yuxuan said, "The prince is not easily amused. He will definitely come in. However, there are many guards around them. Can you handle it?"
"No matter how many people come, they must die here," said Lu Heng.
"Second Prince, I will definitely help you rise to the top and sit in the position you want."
Fu Yuxuan patted his shoulder and said, "Okay, I'll wait here for you to return victoriously."
He wanted to stay here and watch the Crown Prince and Prince Chen die from a hail of arrows!
The sound of horse hooves came from a distance.
Lu Heng's expression was stern, "They are coming."
Fu Yuxuan's heart was so excited that it rose to his throat. The moment he had prepared for so long and looked forward to for so long was finally here.
The Fu Jinyuan brothers, who were still riding slowly on their horses, had not yet noticed the danger hidden in the deep forest.
Their complete focus is on their prey.
The prey in the deep woods is more numerous and faster.
Fu Jinyi held a bow and arrow in his hand, and with the help of Fu Jinyuan, he shot a wild boar.
"Prince, Prince, there may be wild beasts further inside." Gao Zijun said.
They grew up in the mountains and forests and are more familiar with the situation in the forests.
"Did the second prince and others go in?" Fu Jinyi asked.
"There are horse hoof prints on the ground. They must have gone in."
Fu Jinyi turned to look at Fu Jinyuan, "Brother, it looks like you want to lead us in."
"Take the wild boar with you." Fu Jinyuan said, riding his horse in front, and did not forget to tell Fu Jinyi, "Follow me."
When Lu Heng saw Lu Yuan appear at the intersection on horseback, he clenched the sword in his hand.
But Lu Yuan stopped.
Suddenly, he raised his eyes and looked forward.
Although there was some distance between them, Lu Heng could still feel Lu Yuan's cold and dark gaze looking at him.
Like an imposing wild beast, ready to strike at any time.
Lu Heng only felt a chill creeping up his back, and his blood congealed into a bone-chilling cold.
"Why don't they come in? What are they standing there for?" Fu Yuxuan asked with a frown.
"Did you find out?"
Lu Heng pursed his lips, the cold sweat dried up instantly, his fingertips trembled slightly, and he tightly gripped the hilt of the sword.
He saw Lu Yuan take out a shiny black bow and arrow from his horse's back.
Fu Jinyi behind him held his breath. He could sense that although his elder brother's aura was calm, his murderous intent was as sharp as a sword.
"Kill him!" With his blood boiling, Lu Heng gave the order urgently.
Lu Yuan discovered him!
why?
Obviously he had arranged it very well, even the Second Prince didn't know how many people he had arranged here.
There were sounds of fighting from the killer hiding in the tree.
Lu Heng’s face turned pale and he stared at Lu Yuan intently.
Zheng——
The arrow in Lu Yuan's hand left the string.
This was his first arrow of the day.
His prey for the day appeared, and the steel-clad arrows he had prepared for many days finally came in handy.
Lu Heng's pupils shrank slightly, and he felt as if winter was coming.
He didn't even have time to react. As soon as he drew his sword, his chest was pierced.
"……"how so?
Fu Yuxuan looked at Lu Heng who fell in front of him. His blood froze, his teeth chattered, and he looked at Fu Jinyuan in disbelief.
When Fu Jinyuan re-reeled his arrow, the roar of a tiger pierced the sky, like the sudden ringing of a huge bell, shaking the leaves to fall. The sound waves rolled like thunder, passing through the forest and across the country, startling countless birds. The entire valley was echoing with this extremely powerful sound.
Everything is silent.
Everyone's mind was shaken and they held their breath, feeling a chill all over their body.
The fight in the tree also quieted down.
Fu Yuxuan was breathing heavily, feeling relieved that he had escaped death.
"Second Prince." He Zhiyuan's tall figure appeared beside him and helped him up.
"Prime Minister He, Prince Chen... Prince Chen wants to kill me!" Fu Yuxuan grabbed He Zhiyuan's wrist tightly as if he had seen a life-saving duckweed.
He Zhiyuan lowered his eyes and looked at Lu Heng who was still breathing.
"I'll escort you away first." He Zhiyuan said.
He knew that Lu Heng wanted to kill the prince, but he knew even more clearly that Lu Heng and the second prince alone were no match for Prince Chen.
So he prepared for that as well.
A gorgeous tiger walked out of the woods, its eyes like dark flames and its sharp teeth flashing a cold light.
Fu Jinyuan's heart tightened, "Take the prince away from here."
"Commander, you and the prince retreat first, we will stay behind to fight off the tiger." Guan Jin shouted.
"Stop talking nonsense and go." Fu Jinyuan shouted.
“Brother…” The prince’s face turned pale.
Guan Jin held Fu Jinyi's hand and said, "Your Highness, if you stay here, it will distract the commander."
"I...I'll find someone to help you, brother." Fu Jinyi's voice trembled.
When the tiger heard the sound, it leaped with its claws and pounced towards Fu Jinyuan.
The wind from the claws cut the face, and the tiger's tail swept across with a thousand pounds of force. Fu Jinyuan had already changed to a short knife in his hand. He crouched on the ground, and amid the splashing mud and grass, he jumped up and chopped the tiger's neck with one knife.
The tiger roared furiously, leaped up again, and pounced towards Fu Jinyuan with its bloody mouth.
At the critical moment, Fu Jinyuan cut off the thick branch and stabbed it into the tiger's mouth. While the tiger was in pain, he climbed onto the tiger's back and stabbed the tiger's neck with a knife. Blood splattered everywhere and the tiger gradually became exhausted.
Just as Fu Jinyuan fell down and gasped for breath, the assassins hiding in the dark came out one after another.
He Zhiyuan gave a determined smile.
This was the moment he had been waiting for.
When Fu Jinyuan is exhausted and relaxed, disinfect him completely.
As for the prince…he couldn’t go far, as someone was already waiting for him.
Today, both the Crown Prince and the Prince of Chen must die in this deep forest.
Just as the assassin was about to approach Fu Jinyuan, a crisp cry was heard.
"Brother, we are here to rescue you."
shhh-
Arrows rained down densely from all directions, and dozens of black-clad assassins were completely unable to resist.
He Zhiyuan's expression suddenly changed.
The woman was dressed in riding clothes, her red dress was as bright as burning clouds, she looked neat and dashing, with a straight waist. She looked at him disdainfully from the back of the tall horse.
Like a queen high above, she looked down on and mocked him.
Ruan Danyang...
Shouldn't she be going to save the emperor? Why is she here?
"The fugitive from the Yong Dynasty assassinated the Second Prince and Prime Minister He, why don't you go and rescue them?" Ruan Danyang curled her red lips slightly, looking at He Zhiyuan and said slowly.
"Prime Minister He, save me, save me quickly, she will definitely kill me." Fu Yuxuan screamed in shock.
His foot slipped and he rolled down the hill.
