章 1188: Don’t You Dare Touch Her

The carriage rumbled up the mountain.

It was a bumpy and also extremely secluded road. The only sound that could be heard was the occasional chirping of birds in the forest.

Just then, a gang of masked men in black jumped out from the dense thicket nearby, brandishing the weapons in their hands as they shouted, "If you don't want to die, hand over all your money!"

It seemed that they were bandits who had been lying in wait here to rob passers-by of their riches.

However, the Yuan Family's guards were no pushovers either. In an instant, they formed a protective circle around the carriage and drew their swords to face the bandits.

"How dare you hoodlums stand in the way of Princess Consort Rui's carriage? Leave right now, and you will go unpunished!"

Seeing that the guards were not at all intimidated, the bandits wasted no time in raising their weapons and charging them.

Refusing to be outdone, the guards dashed forward as well.
