Exile? A mad, wicked woman empties the national treasury to escape famine.

The more they ran, the more excited the wolves became. They grinned, brandishing their sharp claws, and pounced on the group.

"what!"

"Aaaaaah! Help! Help me!"

"Get away!"

"Get away! Aaaaaah!!!"

As the wolves tore and gnawed through the crowd, a chorus of howls and screams erupted around them. Many people were injured, and some even had half of their arms and legs bitten off!

Ji Yunshu gritted her teeth, desperately protecting the carriage behind her to prevent the wolves from reaching it. Xie Lin came to her side and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Your Highness, what should we do now! There are too many people here, and too many wolves. We can't get out at all!"

Moreover, their rash rush out might provoke the wolves' competitive spirit, causing them to chase after their carriage.

Too dangerous.

Ji Yunshu raised her foot and kicked a charging wolf away. She then reached into her sleeve and took out the short knife she had found in her spatial storage, gripping it tightly in her hand.

Her expression was firm, and her tone was calm and unhurried, without a trace of panic. "Don't panic. The more panicked we are, the more the wolves will attack us. Try to protect the carriage and leave this place slowly. Once we are a little further away from here, we will speed up our departure."

"Although wolves are fast, we can still outrun them if we drive our carriage."

For now, this is the only option we can try.

The carriage was full of people from the Prince's mansion; she couldn't possibly abandon them.

Xie Lin nodded, and he and Ji Yunshu stood back to back, leaving their backs to each other, focusing all their efforts on dealing with the wolves attacking them.

Fortunately, both men were quite skilled, and they managed to drive away several wolves that approached them. The wolves were also intelligent, and after a few such incidents, they turned their attention to other people.

Ji Yunshu and Xie Lin both breathed a sigh of relief, but they still dared not relax easily. They quickly drove the two carriages of the Prince's Mansion away at a slow speed.

However, due to the wolf attack, the horses were also startled and were running around wildly on all four hooves, making the carriage bumpy.

Ji Yunshu broke out in a cold sweat.

Inside the carriage, the elder sister-in-law had just undergone a cesarean section, and her wound had not yet healed. Xie Moyao's back injury was also slowly healing. If they continued to be jostled like this, all her efforts would probably be in vain.

"Shering! Pull hard on the reins and calm the horse down! Otherwise, the people in the carriage will be in danger!"

She gripped the reins tightly, the rope almost chafing the skin off the back of her hands and drawing blood from her lips, but she still dared not loosen her grip even for a moment.

After a moment, the frightened horse gradually calmed down, and Ji Yunshu breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, she was truly grateful that she had been a special agent in her previous life and had a strong mental fortitude.

Otherwise, she really couldn't possibly remain calm in this situation.

Just as she and Xie Lin were driving their horses away from the resting place, Xie Moyao in the carriage suddenly stretched out his hand, pointed in a direction, and said in a tense tone,

"Yunshu! Look over there!"

Ji Yunshu turned her head and looked in the direction Xie Moyao pointed. She saw that Zhou Yanran and Ji Yunyao were being chased by a wolf at the same time!

The two ran desperately towards Ji Yunshu and her group! As they ran, the number of wolves chasing them increased from one to two, then three...

The two ran and shouted, which excited the wolf pack behind them even more.

Ji Yunshu's eyes darkened. Before she could even steer her horse away, Ji Yunyao and Zhou Yanran had already arrived at the carriage. Regardless of their relationship with Ji Yunshu, they lifted their feet and tried to climb onto the carriage.

"Make way, make way, let us in and hide!"

"Get out of the way! Help! Help!"

Ji Yunshu was annoyed by these two idiots. Before they could climb onto the carriage, she kicked them both off. But this time, the two reacted very quickly. As soon as they were kicked to the ground, before they could even say anything, they rolled over, got up, and continued to climb onto the carriage.

Ji Yunyao, in particular, clung tightly to the edge of the carriage, hanging from it, her hands and feet constantly trying to climb up, no matter how much Ji Yunshu kicked her, she couldn't get her down.

Damn, is the female lead's halo in the original book that strong? She can't even shake it off?

Zhou Yanran and Ji Yunyao ran over together. She wasn't stupid; she copied Ji Yunyao's actions and hung on the other side of the carriage.

The wolves relentlessly attacked the carriage, and the horses, which had been calm, became restless again.

Ji Yunshu's expression turned cold. She picked up the short knife in her hand and made a cut on each of their hands, leaving long gashes that gushed out blood instantly.

Both of them cried out in pain, their grip on the carriage loosened, and they fell to the ground. Just then, two wolves pounced on either side of the carriage, their original targets being Ji Yunyao and Zhou Yanran, who were hanging on it.

However, Ji Yunyao and Zhou Yanran had already been taken off the carriage by Ji Yunshu, and when the two wolves pounced, they missed their target, giving them the opportunity to pounce on the carriage.

The two wolves were taken aback when they saw the carriage being pounced on. But then, they turned their heads to the people inside the carriage, their eyes filled with excitement, and with their mouths wide open, they pounced on them.

The people in the carriage all changed their expressions. Xie Mohuan and Xiao Lan stood in front of the others, their faces turning pale as they faced the two wolves that pounced on them, but they still used their bodies to shield their family members behind them.

Just as the two wolves were about to bite the two men's necks, Ji Yunshu outside the carriage turned around quickly, stretched out both hands, and with all her might, grabbed the legs of the two wolves on the left and right, and pulled hard!

They forcibly dragged the two wolves out of the carriage and threw them aside.

The two wolves reacted quickly, standing up abruptly and circling the carriage, preparing to jump onto it again!

Ji Yunshu gripped the dagger tighter and tighter, her feet unconsciously spreading apart to make herself more stable, and her body adopted a defensive stance.

Damn Ji Yunyao and Zhou Yanran! If those two idiots hadn't lured the wolves here, how would they have even targeted them?!

Wolves are intelligent and patient animals. She didn't have time to waste on these two wolves. If she waited for the other wolves to finish fighting and then gather together, they wouldn't be able to escape either.

She tried to relax and appear less tense to put the wolf at ease.

Sure enough, the two wolves' gait changed slightly, adopting an aggressive posture, as if they were about to jump onto the carriage at any moment.

She silently counted, "3, 2, 1".

As the number "1" fell, the two wolves that had been lingering around the carriage suddenly leaped into the air and pounced again. This time, their target was not the carriage, but Ji Yunshu inside it!
