Chapter 459: Assassination in the Capital

The small vendor selling sugar-coated hawthorns raised an eyebrow upon hearing the words and forced an awkward smile, saying, "Miss, what do you mean by that? I... I don't understand."

"Don't understand?" Su Yuanzhen chuckled.

She glanced around at the small vendors and her eyes landed on something around the waist of one of them.

The vendor realized something and quickly turned around, discreetly moving the thing around his waist backward.

He raised one hand, about to block that thing, but he didn't expect that Su Yuanzhen had already pulled out the thing at his waist.

It was a five-inch wide long knife.

The handle of the knife was covered by the apron of the small vendor. If you didn't look closely, you really couldn't tell.

The small vendor stared at the long knife in Su Yuanzhen's hand, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down. He pursed his lips and whispered, "Miss...you...you..."

Before the small vendor could finish speaking, someone had already rushed out behind Su Yuanzhen.

That person also held a similar long knife in their hand.

That long knife was fiercely swung down towards the back of Su Yuanzhen's head.

Su Yuanzhen swiftly dodged the long knife with a sidestep.

Taking two steps back, her eyes glinted with a cold light as she stared at the merchant who was charging at her with the knife.

Upon witnessing the merchant's aggressive move, the others immediately rushed forward together.

Su Yuanzhen looked around at the small vendors rushing towards her.

There were over a dozen of them, each holding a five-inch long knife, just like the seller of sugar-coated haws. I have translated the provided Chinese text into English while keeping all the "@" matches intact. Let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.

They quickly cornered Su Yuanzhen against the wall.

Su Yuanzhen still held the long knife she had taken from a candy hawker's hand.

She eyed the approaching crowd warily, a smile lingering on her lips. "It seems your master is quite audacious, stirring up such a commotion in the capital city."

The leader of a small vendor, holding a long knife in his hand, stared straight at Su Yuanzhen with cold eyes and said in a chilly voice, "Miss Su, I'm sorry, but we also take people's money and remove their troubles for them."

After speaking, the small vendor raised his chin towards a few people behind him.

For a moment, there was a deafening shout.

Fortunately, Su Yuanzhen had been to the frontlines before, so this kind of spectacle did not instill any fear in her. Translated:

她盯着向自己扑来的小商贩,呵呵一笑,嘴角勾动,拎起自己手中的长刀,毫不客气地往小商贩们身上砍去。

很快,十几个小商贩就变成了七八个。

Shortly after, the group of seven or eight reduced to four or five.

Su Yuanzhen's body was covered in blood, and her eyes were filled with bloodshot red veins.

Her hands were weak, and the grip on the knife was even more feeble.

Su Yuanzhen gasped heavily, her chest heaving up and down.

Her vision blurred.

Blood dripped steadily down her eyelashes.

Su Yuanzhen knew that if a few more people appeared, she wouldn't be able to hold on anymore.

Su Yuanzhen leaned against the wall behind her, placing the knife upright by her side, staring at the small vendors who were still rushing towards her.

These are not ordinary small vendors at all, but clearly a group of warriors.

Su Yuanzhen snorted coldly, shaking her head. She took a deep breath and slowly stood up, switching hands to hold the long knife, and stared at the few vendors.

"Come on." Su Yuanzhen's voice was low as her eyes stared straight at the small vendors.

Those small vendors, upon hearing Su Yuanzhen's deep voice, couldn't help but stop in their tracks.

They looked at each other, observing one another.

One of them gulped and cautiously said to the others, "She's just one person, and a woman at that. What is there to fear? If we can't eliminate her, it's us who will end up dead."

Just as these words were spoken, the hesitant small vendors immediately stepped forward again.

@This time, they no longer hesitated like before.

@They stared at Su Yuanzhen intently, as if they were looking at their own prey.

Suyuanzhen forced herself to be alert, and with a swift turn, the long knife in her hand went forward along her arm.

The sharp blade struck the face of one of the small vendors.

In that instant, the small vendor raised the knife in their own hand.

With a loud clang, two long knives collided in mid-air.

The sound was extremely crisp.

Su Yuanzhen seemed to faintly see sparks flying from the collision of the two knives.

The long knife in her hand suddenly rolled its blade, and the knife broke in half from the middle.

Seeing this, the small vendors became even more excited.

They shouted and rushed towards Su Yuanzhen.

Su Yuanzhen's weapon broke, and she had no strength left. She could only weakly lean against the wall, gasping for breath.

A smile hung on the corner of her mouth as she thought to herself: It seems that this time, my life is going to be buried here.

Thinking about it, Su Yuanzhen suddenly heard the sound of horses neighing.

"Stop." A cold and indifferent voice echoed.

Hearing this voice, Su Yuanzhen suddenly felt a sense of calm in her heart. Translation:

她嘴角勾动了两下,放下心来,一阵疲累之感涌上了自己的心头。

苏鸳珍不再挣扎,扑通一声坐在地上。

那些小商贩们转过头,只见欧阳洺骑着一匹高马,手中还拎着一把长剑,说话间便已经冲到了小商贩们身边。

He rushed out suddenly, and these people didn't even have a chance to react. Two of them had already been stabbed by Ouyang Ming and fell to the ground.

Immediately after, along with Ouyang Ming, seven to eight more people rushed out. They quickly dismounted, took a few steps forward, and grabbed the remaining three individuals. ---

Ouyang Ming immediately jumped off the horse and rushed to Su Yuanzhen's side.

He held Su Yuanzhen tightly, and exclaimed loudly, "Yuanzhen..."

Su Yuanzhen slowly opened her eyes, glanced at Ouyang Ming, and took a deep breath. "You...you've come..."

After speaking, Su Yuanzhen's hands drooped, she turned her head away, sealed her lips, and tightly shut her eyes.

Ouyang Ming picked up Su Yuanzhen and headed towards the horse.

"Your Highness, how should we deal with these few people?" A servant behind Ouyang Ming whispered. Translate the above Chinese into English and keep all @ matches. Only reply to the translated content.

Ouyang Ming only glanced at those three people and said coldly, "Take them back to the mansion and keep them under strict surveillance."

After finishing his words, Ouyang Ming didn't care about much else and hurriedly rode his horse forward.

His heart was filled with extreme panic, and the breath of Su Yuanzhen in his arms became weaker and weaker, as if she could leave him at any moment.

This was already the third time he faced such a situation. Translated:

I dare not imagine, what would happen if I arrived a little later today.

If Suyuan Zhen died here in the capital city, right before my eyes, what would I do?

He became more and more scared as he thought about it, and his heart was pounding like a rabbit, jumping nonstop.

In Ouyang Ming's arms, Su Yuanzhen was jolted and her body suddenly curled up. She coughed softly twice and slowly opened her eyes.
