In the woods, Ling Ning was surrounded by assassins, looking very dangerous.
Ling Ning was very curious about these assassins. They were highly skilled in martial arts and coordinated perfectly. They were definitely not ordinary soldiers, but must be the elites of the imperial court.
Unfortunately, the assassin leader didn't want to say anything, and even mocked Ling Ning for not knowing what it meant to be outnumbered.
This time it was Ling Ning's turn to laugh.
Outnumbered?
Who is the few and who is the many?
So Ling Ning didn't want to waste time. If they didn't want to reveal their identities, he would catch them and pry open their mouths, and he would know.
"The opportunity has been given to you, but if you don't know how to cherish it, then don't blame me." Ling Ning said coldly.
When they heard what Ling Ning said, the assassins couldn't help but laugh.
If you continue to pretend even when death is imminent, where does your confidence come from?
At this moment, Ling Ning moved.
I saw him raise his right hand and wave it gently.
The assassin leader sneered, who can't wave? Can you wave your sleeves and become thousands of warriors? It’s so…
Damn it!
The next moment, the assassin leader felt chills all over his body and was stunned.
The other assassins also froze on the spot, even forgetting to breathe.
I saw a large number of soldiers strangely appearing around Ling Ning, hundreds of them, protecting Ling Ning.
These warriors wore leather armor, held steel knives, and had sharp eyes.
And it’s not over yet!
Behind the assassins, a large number of warriors appeared out of thin air, more than a thousand in number, and surrounded the assassins.
It’s all like this, and it’s not over yet!
There was actually a warrior standing on the tree above him, looking down at the assassins, with murderous intent in his eyes.
The assassin leader was completely confused. This was the first time he encountered this situation.
Suddenly, Ling Ning's words flashed through his mind:
Outnumbered, who is the outnumbered? Who are the multitude?
Damn it, it turns out that I am the widow.
"Do it!"
At this time, Ling Ning's cold voice sounded.
The Advent Warriors immediately responded and immediately charged towards the assassin. The warriors on the tree pounced down and killed the assassin who was still in shock.
The assassin leader was agitated and suddenly realized. He wanted to shout for his companions to kill the enemy, but when he spoke, he found that most of his companions had been hacked to death with random knives.
There are too many descending warriors, one or two thousand!
On the other hand, there were only a few dozen assassins.
Even if the descending warriors are not as good as them in martial arts, how can the assassins resist when they are swarmed?
Soon, a large number of assassins were slaughtered, leaving only the assassin leader and four accomplices. They were surrounded by the Advent warriors, and the four of them formed a circle, shivering.
At this time, the advent warriors made way for a passage, and Ling Ning came over and asked, "Who are you?"
The assassin leader's lips trembled and he stared at Ling Ning with horrified eyes. He couldn't help but ask, "Who are you? Are you a human or a ghost? Do you know magic?"
Obviously, the assassin leader has not yet recovered from the shock.
Waving your hand to summon thousands of people is simply not something humans can do.
Ling Ning's patience was limited and she was too lazy to answer his questions. Instead, she said: "Catch these four people!"
The Advent warriors swarmed forward.
The assassin leader wanted to resist, but was unable to hold off Wolf Duo and was captured immediately.
"Slit his throat and bleed!" Ling Ning pointed at the assassin leader and gave the order directly.
The assassin leader panicked and said quickly: "I said, I..."
Unfortunately, before he could reveal his identity, the Advent Warrior's knife slit his throat and blood spurted out.
Ling Ning looked at the other three survivors.
His cold gaze fell on the three living assassins. He was so frightened that he hurriedly said without asking:
"We are from the Divine Guards!"
"According to the order of Commander Lei, come to assassinate the prince! At the same time, rescue Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
"The guy whose throat was cut is our deputy commander and is responsible for this assassination!"
"My lord, please spare my life, my lord, please spare my life!"
“…”
The three of them kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.
Ling Ning suddenly realized.
Naturally, he had heard of the Shenwei Imperial Guards, which were the palace guards who protected Emperor Liang. Each guard was one of a hundred.
After asking what she wanted to ask, Ling Ning walked straight out of the woods.
As for these three assassins, they have returned to the embrace of Mother Earth.
Outside the woods, the Advent Warriors cleared away the other Assassins. However, Zhang Quan was injured, and many other guards were killed or injured.
Ling Ning said in a deep voice: "Zhang Quan, bury the guards who died in the war properly, triple the pension, and exempt their families from taxes for five years."
"I understand," Zhang Quan responded.
Ling Ning nodded and then took the carriage back to Yanzhou City.
However, with Ling Ning's vengeful character, Emperor Liang dared to send someone to assassinate him, how could he not take revenge.
"Emperor Liang, do you think that since you live deep in the palace, I can't do anything to you? Your nightmare has just begun..."
Ling Ning gritted his teeth, and the figure of a man appeared in his mind.
…
Daliang Harem.
Kunning Palace.
The queen's bedroom.
The palace is extremely gorgeous, from carpets to furniture to all kinds of treasures, it is extremely luxurious.
Such luxury was not only due to the fact that the queen was in charge of the harem, but also because of his mother's family.
The queen's mother's family is a thousand-year-old family, the Xie family, just like the Wang family.
If the legitimate daughter of the Xie family became the queen, then the legitimate daughter of the Wang family would have to become the imperial concubine. The two families were often at odds with each other.
Of course, this was also intentional by Emperor Liang. A secret fight between the two families would be most beneficial to the Liang court. If the two families formed an alliance, it would be troublesome.
However, despite the fact that Queen Xie Lingqing is the mother of the world, her life has not been satisfactory over the years, because she is old and beautiful. Every time Emperor Liang comes to Kunning Palace, he has to sit down as a courtesy and does not need the queen to sleep with him.
Emperor Liang has passed through the house three times without entering.
But the Queen is only forty-two years old, at the age when she can absorb dirt from sitting on the ground. How painful can she imagine being a widow all day long?
In fact, the queen at this age is not considered to have lost her beauty due to old age. She still has a certain beauty, making her look like a mature woman.
But it cannot be compared with a young and beautiful girl.
Men have a common problem, they all like young and beautiful people.
Unlike Ling Ning, he is more single-minded and only likes beautiful people, and youth is second.
"Why…"
The queen leaned on the soft couch, resting her chin on her left hand and letting out a bored sigh.
The eunuch in charge at the side saw that the queen was in a bad mood and immediately suggested: "Let me tell you, Queen Mother, I heard that a new batch of camellias has arrived in the greenhouse, saying they are new varieties shipped from the south. How about I send someone to get them?"
The queen's favorite flower is camellia, so the flower room is filled with various camellias.
Just when the queen was about to nod, she suddenly said: "It's boring anyway, so let's go to the flower room and look around. There's no need to show off."
"This slave accepts the order." The eunuch in charge immediately went to make arrangements.
Don't show off, keep a low profile. Once she is married, the concubines in the harem will soon know that she is going to the flower room. Then those favored little bitches will definitely talk and ridicule behind her back, saying that the queen is lonely and empty, and can only enjoy flowers and talk to comfort her.
The flower room is very close to Kunning Palace and next to the Imperial Garden. It is very large and has not only camellias but other flowers planted in it.
In winter, charcoal is lit in the greenhouse for warmth so that the flowers can bloom in the winter.
When the queen came to the flower room, she felt that the temperature here was several degrees higher than outside, so she took off her waistcoat, revealing the whiteness of her chest.
There is a cave inside the flower room. Although it looks like a place to grow flowers, it looks like a garden. There are not only flowers, but also various green plants, flowing water, and stones. The scenery everywhere is carefully designed.
The queen walked through the quiet path and came to the area where camellias were planted, but her steps suddenly stopped.
I saw a handsome little eunuch who was concentrating on cooking camellias.
The little eunuch is more than eight feet tall, with a tall figure and a handsome face. His attention at this time adds to his charm.
The queen's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
