My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker! - Chapter 1483

Chapter 1483: Fleeing for Their Lives

Qiao Mu couldn’t help but twitch her mouth. “Stay here and wait for me!”

After saying this, her figure swayed, shooting forward like an arrow.

“Hey, Qiaoqiao.” In a fluster, Xiao Mi hastily picked up her sword from the ground before rapidly chasing after her.

By the time Qiao Mu rushed to the mountain gazebo, she saw that a gigantic nightcaw bird had already swooped down into the crowd, and several royal maid servants were currently ganging up on it.

Luckily, these royal maidservants all knew some kungfu, so the nightcaw bird was unable to kill them instantly.

Qiao Mu instantly hit that nightcaw bird flying with a mystic energy shockwave, and she dashed up to Nanny Qing, questioning coldly, “Where is the queen?”

“Her Majesty had left first with Commandery Princess Yi’an through a shortcut,” Nanny Qing replied quickly, not daring to waste time.

She was also very aware of how strong the crown prince consort was. If the crown prince consort could provide assistance, then Her Majesty would be in safer hands.

As they spoke, a team of royal guards also dashed over to deal with the hovering nightcaw bird in a disciplined fashion.

Summoning Qingluan and the fat squirrel, Qiao Mu had them stay here to assist the royal guards in dealing with the nightcaw bird. This way, they could guarantee that nothing would go wrong.

Afterwards, she turned to tell Xiao Mi, “I’m going to find the queen. You stay here and don’t leave.”

After saying this, and before Xiao Mi could say anything, she rapidly flitted away like a wisp of smoke in the direction where the queen and Yi’an had departed.

Meanwhile, Queen Zhao and Yi’an were running toward the corridor while the royal maid servants covered for them.

Previously, two nightcaw birds had suddenly attacked the group. Furthermore, they exhibited intelligence, with one staying behind to deal with the royal maid servants, while the other chased after the queen and Yi’an.

Fortunately, when they were dashing through a short hallway, that nightcaw bird that was hot on their heels had scraped against the eaves of the corridor. It released a shrill cry as it got struck off course.

Queen Zhao hurriedly turned around to strike out a wave of mystic energy. Yet she missed her mark from the rush, and it triggered the nightcaw bird into rolling about on the ground instead. When it got up, it flapped its wings and chased after the two people ferociously.

Yi’an shrieked and in a panic, she turned a corner in the corridor toward the small garden ahead.

By this time, four to five hidden guards had caught up, which abruptly took pressure off from the queen.

While besieging the nightcaw bird with attacks, the hidden guards shouted, “Your Majesty, you leave first.”

Queen Zhao nodded and told them “you all be careful” before running to the other end of the corridor after Yi’an.

Many flowers and plants were planted along both sides of this corridor. They usually looked quite pleasing to the eyes, but it was not pretty getting hooked and caught by the leaves and branches when they were fleeing for their lives.

Yi’an ran to the end of the corridor in one breath. Just as she was about to pass through the small arched door, a pair of rotting wings suddenly dropped down in front of her.

Something resembling a long-necked crane abruptly gaped its monstrous mouth and bit toward Yi’an’s arm.

“Ah!!” Yi’an covered her lips with her hands, her complexion paling as she screeched.

The queen rushed over rapidly and flung over the shortsword spiritual weapon in her hand. With a gleam, the shortsword stabbed into the long-necked crane’s head, instantly causing it to drop to the ground.

The queen quickly ran over and pulled the shortsword out from that long-necked zombie crane’s head. She wiped it messily with a handkerchief before pulling Yi’an along, shouting, “Go quickly, what are you blanking out for?”

Yi’an shuddered, and she nodded rapidly. She and Queen Zhao ran through the small garden one after the other toward Yating Court’s main entrance.
