The Princess Story's
Episode 263
Ye Yuan dashed away from the herd of assassins, he walked into a dark passage at the crossroads. Ye Yuan continued to run to a dead end, now that the assassins were about to reach where Ye Yuan was.
"Ah shit, why did I choose this dead end!" thought Ye Yuan.
He looked around the hallway, as he gazed up, Ye Yuan saw the figure of a man flying with his wings up there.
"It looks like you need help" said the man.
"Huo Feng." Ye Yuan said as he looked at the man's face.
"Grow your hands!" huo Feng Pinta.
Ye Yuan looked back, dozens of assassins were running towards him. With no other choice, Ye Yuan reached out to Huo Feng who also extended his hand.
Huo Feng pulled Ye Yuan's body, he flew across the high walls of the passageway. The two men landed near King Wei's troops who were looking for Ye Yuan. As soon as he landed, Huo Feng said goodbye to Ye Yuan. The man flew high and disappeared within the dark night sky.
King Wei approached Ye Yuan who was standing looking at the sky, several times he called out the name of the man but Ye Yuan did not respond. King Wei touched Ye Yuan's shoulder, the man regained his senses, he slammed into King Wei's hand in memory of the killer who had been chasing him.
"Your Majesty!" he said when he saw the face of the man in front of him.
"Are you okay?" ask King Wei.
"That's it!" shouted one of the killers.
The assassins were still chasing Ye Yuan, they ran over and pointed the sword towards Ye Yuan and King Wei. The Eagle army that was there drew their swords and stood guard in front of the two men.
"Kill it!" yelled one of the killers.
The ceasefire was inevitable, the Eagle Forces group and the group of assassins attacked each other until there was bloodshed. Although the number of assassins was twice that of the Eagle Force, their strength still could not defeat the long-trained Eagle Force group on the battlefield.
Within minutes of the assassins being defeated, some of them were captured alive on the orders of King Wei. King Wei was about to investigate who was the mastermind behind all these events.
King Wei escorted Ye Yuan back to the Huang residence, after making sure Ye Yuan entered the residence, King Wei asked Yu to return to his residence.
Ye Yuan recalled the conversation between King Wei and himself on the way home.
FLASHBACKS
"Your Majesty, thank you for saving my life" Ye Yuan said.
"No need to thank me, we are family. Don't bother me because I should have done this." said King Wei.
"But, why is His Majesty here?" asked Ye Yuan with curiosity.
"I got a message from someone, he said if you're in danger. That's why I'm looking all the way to that place." replied King Wei.
"If I may know, who sent you the message?" ask Ye Yuan.
"A man with red eyes, he also has a fiery red hair color." replied King Wei while thinking about Huo Feng's physical form.
"Huo Feng?" ye Yuan's.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
"Why would Huo Feng know if I was in danger? Could it be he who had ordered people to kill me? But, if he wants to kill me, why bother coming to save me and also ask for help from King Wei? Maybe he wasn't the culprit." Ye Yuan thought.
"Young master, we have prepared warm water" Xiao Li said.
The man went inside the bathroom, he cleaned his body in the warm water that Xiao Li had prepared.
"Lately it seems like I've been dreaming a lot, but I always forget that dream when I wake up. Somehow I feel sad every time I dream, when the dream I never remember at all." Ye Yuan thought.
"Tok Tok Tok!"
Xiao Li knocked on the door, telling Ye Yuan that Prime Minister Huang was waiting for him in the main pavilion.
"Tell Dad I'll see him in a minute!" ye Yuan's orders.
"Okay young master" Xiao Li replied from outside the door.
Ye Yuan finished his cleaning activities, he took out a white cloth that folded neatly inside the room, he dried his body with the cloth. Afterwards, the man wore the clothes that Xiao Li had prepared.
"What's your dad looking for me?" ye Yuan asked as he had just arrived at the main pavilion.
"There is a request for reinforcements from the northern border. I'd like to ask you your opinion on this" Prime Minister Huang said.
"Do you want me to lead reinforcements there?" ask Ye Yuan.
"Dad doesn't want you to leave, but some other ministers have chosen your name to lead additional soldiers who will help the war this time" Prime Minister Huang said.
"If I refuse, who's the next person to be sent there?" ask Ye Yuan.
"It seems, without you mentioning it, you would already know the answer" Prime Minister Huang said.
"Han Ze Xuan?" asked Ye Yuan to make sure.
Prime Minister Huang nodded, "Right, he is the next candidate to be sent there."
"It turns out that this is why I was the target of the assassination, they wanted to send King Wei to the border" Ye Yuan said.
"What do you mean by a target murder?" prime Minister Huang asked, not understanding.
"Dad, just now a group of assassins were sent to kill me" Ye Yuan replied.
"You okay? Is anyone hurt?" asked Prime Minister Huang in a panic.
I'm fine Dad, King Wei showed up there and saved my life" Ye Yuan replied.
Prime Minister Huang seemed to think hard, he recalled that during the meeting, there was one person who really wanted King Wei to be sent to the border.
"Hong Yu Lin, that old man had been insistent on sending King Wei. Could he be the mastermind behind those assassins?" prime Minister Huang.
"About, what was the purpose of wanting to send King Wei?" ye Yuan said while thinking.
"Kill King Wei on the battlefield!" prime Ministers Huang and Ye Yuan said simultaneously.
"Dad, it seems like he did" Ye Yuan said confidently.
"The old man had long disliked King Wei, it was because his request to raise taxes was always rejected by King Wei. Perhaps he will use this opportunity to get rid of King Wei" Prime Minister Huang said.
"Dad, I will go to the border." replied Ye Yuan confidently.
