- As the emperor's health improved day by day, the atmosphere in the entire palace gradually returned to normal. As the emperor who had been cured, Han Mengxin became the most unprovoked person in the entire palace. There is no other reason, the queen is covering her. In the past, Zhou Tong was protected by the queen, and Zhou Tong did not dare to offend anyone in the palace, but now she is replaced by Han Mengxin. In addition, Han Mengxin is kind to others, let alone anyone who wants to provoke Han Mengxin, it is too late to get close to her.
Of course, not everyone likes Han Mengxin. Zhou Tong, who felt that he had been deprived of the benefits that should have been his, hated Han Mengxin to the core. It's just that he has never been able to find a chance to make a move, so Zhou Tong can only endure it for the time being.
"Mengxin, are you really unwilling to stay with me in the palace?" the queen asked again.
"Thank you for your kindness, the Queen. It's just that Han Mengxin comes from a rough background and can't adapt to the life in the palace. And I don't trust my brother and Ning Ping to take risks." Han Mengxin explained to the Queen softly.
"Hey, what if something happens to this girl? How about we arrange your marriage to that boy from Ningping first? And then" The queen sighed and retreated. The second one said. But before the queen could finish her words, she saw Ning Rong running in with a panicked look on her face. As soon as she came in, she shouted: "Queen Mother, Queen Mother, it's not good."
The queen who was interrupted glared at Ning Rong with dissatisfaction and said angrily: "Rong'er, you are already a grown-up, why are you still so crazy? You should learn more from Mengxin, look at how well-behaved your child is."
Ning Rong rolled her eyes dejectedly when she heard this, secretly thinking about her mother's partiality, "Mother, if you have a daughter-in-law, you don't want a daughter."
"What are you doing standing there? What happened?" Seeing Ning Rong not speaking, the queen frowned and asked.
Ning Rong, who was being questioned, had no choice but to put aside her dissatisfaction and talk about the business in a hurry, "Queen mother, please go and have a look. Father wants to go to the front line to have a look."
The queen immediately became anxious when she heard this. According to Han Mengxin's medical advice, the emperor needs at least half a year of recuperation to regain his strength. Isn't it risking his life to go out to do things at this time? It's not yet time for him to risk his life.
"This old man, what is he going to do?" the queen scolded as she got up and walked towards the palace gate. When Ning Rong saw this, she blinked at Han Mengxin and pulled Han Mengxin to follow her.
When the queen hurried to the emperor's palace, she saw that the emperor was being stopped at the door of the palace by a group of people. Seeing the emperor in full armor, the queen calmed down, walked over slowly and asked, "Your Majesty, where are you planning to go?"
The men of the Ning family have a tradition of being afraid of their wives. Even after becoming emperor, this tradition did not change. Look at the queen's calm look. The emperor's heart skipped a beat. They were an old couple, and the emperor still understood the queen's habits. The calmer the queen appears at this time, the more angry she is.
"Hmm Well, Mengxin said that always staying in the room is not good for recuperation. I plan to go out and walk around." The emperor coughed lightly and explained to the queen.
"Do you need to be fully armed to move around?" the queen asked slowly.
"Haha I'll take it off right now. Take it off right now." The emperor smiled and returned to the palace to take off the armor he was wearing. At this time, the queen asked Han Mengxin who was following her: "Mengxin, going out for a walk really helps to recover from injuries?"
Glancing at the emperor who was looking at her with pleading eyes, Han Mengxin nodded slightly and replied: "To answer the question to the queen, proper exercise is indeed helpful for recuperating from injuries. However, there is no need to wear helmets and armor, and there is no need to run too far. In fact, just walking around in the palace is enough. And you can’t exercise all the time, you need to balance work and rest"
"Queen. Did you hear that? I didn't lie to you." The emperor quickly interrupted Han Mengxin and said to the queen. The queen rolled her eyes at the emperor angrily, nodded and said, "Okay, since Mengxin said you can move around, I will accompany you around in the future."
Hearing the Queen's words, the Emperor's face suddenly fell. The queen just pretended not to see this, took Han Mengxin's hand and asked: "Mengxin, the emperor happens to be here too. Let's continue the topic just now, you see"
"Father, the car is ready, you still needthe child to see the mother." Ning Ping entered the door and found that the queen was also there. He quickly said hello.
"Hmph! You restless boy, if you want to go to the front line, then you can go. Why drag your father with you? Don't you know that your father is injured?" The queen rushed dissatisfied. Ning Ping complained with a cold snort.
"Yes, you are such an unfilial child." The emperor said in support.
Ning Ping was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood. He looked at the emperor with tangled eyes and thought to himself: "Who was making the noise just now?"Are you planning to go to the front line? "
Perhaps because he felt a little guilty, the emperor did not look at Ning Ping, but turned to look at the queen and said: "Queen, the weather is nice today, let's go for a walk in the garden."
"Okay. Ping'er, if you want to go to the front line, then go ahead. You are also a descendant of the Ning family. Now that the Ning family is in trouble, you should help. You don't have to worry here. Go to the front line and help your brother." The Queen agreed and said to Ning Ping.
Ning Ping felt happy when he heard this, nodded and replied: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your permission." After saying that, he stretched out his hand to pull Han Mengxin, and ran away without waiting for the Queen to say anything. Seeing that Ning Ping had taken Han Mengxin away, the queen couldn't help but feel a little anxious. Just as she opened her mouth to call them back, she was stopped by the emperor on the side.
"Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, let them decide for themselves. Ronger, go to the garden to make arrangements. Your mother and I will go over and sit for a while."
After hearing the emperor’s order, Ning Rong agreed, turned around and left. After Ning Rong left, the queen said somewhat depressedly: "Why is it so difficult to do something? If it weren't for things like you, I could take the opportunity to finalize the marriage between Ping'er and Mengxin. "
"What? You really don't want that Zhou Tong to be your daughter-in-law?" the emperor joked with a smile.
Hearing that the emperor mentioned Zhou Tong, the queen's originally pretty face suddenly darkened. When the emperor saw this, he asked in confusion: "What? Did that child make you unhappy?"
"Emperor, tell me the truth, are you really not aware of your injury this time?" The queen was silent for a moment, looking at the emperor and asked slowly.
The emperor who was being stared at was a little reluctant to talk about this topic, but he also knew that if he didn't speak clearly at this time, he didn't know what the queen would do. Sighing helplessly, the emperor asked softly: "Queen, can you tell me what you plan to do?"
"I already have clues. It can be said that as long as I spend a little more time, I can investigate the true circumstances of your injury at that time."
"I have already issued a gag order."
"I am your wife. My husband was injured, but the wife doesn't even know how her husband was injured. This seems a bit unreasonable."
Hearing this, the emperor was silent for a while and ordered not to be disturbed for the time being. He pulled the queen to sit down and said softly to the queen: "How about giving her a chance?"
"It seems that your injury is really related to her." The queen asked, staring at the emperor.
Hearing this, the emperor smiled and said: "Haha not only is it related, it can be said that she was the mastermind behind the whole thing."
"She is so brave!" After receiving the emperor's personal confirmation, the queen couldn't help but get furious and immediately stood up to find trouble for Zhou Tong. Upon seeing this, the emperor quickly grabbed the queen and said, "Sit down, sit down. Listen to what I have to say."
"Okay, tell me."
"In fact, I didn't know about this at the beginning. The war was in full swing at that time, and everyone's attention was focused on the mechanical army's offensive. No one thought that there would be an attack from behind. Guess who made the sneak attack Me?"
Hearing the emperor’s question, the queen thought hard for a while and shook her head. That battle was defeated by the assassination of the emperor. Many generals were killed in the battle, and the Queen couldn't think of anyone who was the most suspect.
"It's Huang Chenggong." The emperor said the answer when he saw the queen shaking her head.
"It's him?" the queen said with some disbelief. Huang Chenggong can be regarded as one of the emperor's cronies. At first glance, it shouldn't be him, but if you think about it carefully, except for close friends who can make a sneak attack, others don't seem to have this chance. But when did Huang Chenggong get roped in?
"Huang Chenggong is an orphan adopted by the father of that girl Zhou Tong. But none of us know about this. Huang Chenggong told me personally after I was assassinated."
"From your tone, he should have been able to kill you at that time. But why didn't he kill you?" the queen asked in confusion.
The emperor smiled when he heard this and said, "Maybe it's because I'm a handsome person."
"That's nonsense, please tell me it's normal." The queen angrily punched the emperor.
"Haha I also asked the same question as you. Huang Chenggong told me that he attacked me sneakily to repay Zhou Tong and his father for saving his life. He did not kill me because he wanted to repay my kindness. The favor. And if you kill me, the entire Emperor Planet will be in chaos. The people who will suffer like that are the common people."
"If that's the case, then I can let his children go. But that Zhou Tong" At the end of the sentence, the queen's face became serious. Emperor's meeting?He said quickly: "Forgive her this time."
"You are so confused, she wants to kill you." The queen glared at the emperor with some dissatisfaction and said.
"Alas~ She wanted to kill me but she was actually seeking revenge. This world should have belonged to her Zhou family, but it was taken away by me. Even if it is for her father's sake, I will forgive her this time. If Next time, I will never tolerate it."
Seeing the emperor’s insistence, the queen could not say anything more. But even if Zhou Tong is not held accountable, it is still necessary for Zhou Tong to suffer a little. She must be made to understand her current identity, and it is best not to have any thoughts that she shouldn't have, otherwise you don't know what trouble will happen again in the future.
The emperor had no objection to the queen's decision. As long as the queen didn't want Zhou Tong's life, he could just turn a blind eye and pretend he didn't see it.
With the emperor's tacit approval, the queen immediately began to punish Zhou Tong. First of all, it was natural to take back Zhou Tong's right to enter the palace anytime and anywhere. Secondly, he sent female officials from the palace to teach Zhou Tong the etiquette in the palace and explain the ways of kings and ministers. Saying that the way of a monarch and his ministers is just a pretense, the purpose is to warn Zhou Tong. With Zhou Tong's intelligence, it was easy to understand the Queen's hint.
But just because of his cleverness, after being warned, Zhou Tong was in panic all day long. I originally thought that everything was done perfectly, but I didn't expect that everyone would know about it. Only then did Zhou Tong become afraid.
Fear at its extreme is anger. Zhou Tong, who used herself to save others, began to have random thoughts. She did not know that the emperor had persuaded the queen to forgive her this assassination. On the contrary, she believed that she was at a critical moment of life and death. As long as she showed the slightest flaw, she would be found an excuse to get rid of her.
People are unreasonable when they are crazy. Zhou Tong, who was desperate, wanted to meet the queen. He tried to test the Queen's tone, but was blocked outside the palace gate. This further aggravated Zhou Tong's suspicion, thinking that the Queen did not see him because she wanted to distance herself from him so as not to be implicated by him.
Returned home dejected. Zhou Tong, who felt that disaster was imminent, was finally afraid. She thought about running away, but when she thought about her clan and her family's heritage, and once she ran away, she would definitely be found guilty. Until now, Zhou Tong still held a trace of illusion, thinking that the emperor was just trying to scare off the enemy to get himself into trouble.
"Can't leave. I can't leave." Zhou Tong told herself over and over again that she couldn't leave. But just when Zhou Tong was giving herself psychological hints, the housekeeper broke in and reported to Zhou Tong in a low voice: "Miss Third, Yang Qi sent someone to send a message, saying that the target has appeared, asking you to prepare. The reward awaits his good news.”
"Hmmhuh? Did you just say that Yang Qi was ready to take action?" Zhou Tong responded casually, but then came back to his senses. He grabbed the butler by the collar and asked.
The housekeeper, who had never seen Third Miss so rude before, was startled. When Zhou Tong pressed him again, he nodded and replied: "As for Third Miss, according to the time, we should have taken action by now."
"Damn it! Hurry, send someone to stop him!" Zhou Tong screamed inwardly and kept saying to the housekeeper. But the housekeeper looked embarrassed and said to Zhou Tong: "Miss Third, we don't know where Yang Qi plans to ambush the target."
"If you don't know, go find it quickly!" Zhou Tong roared angrily.
Before the housekeeper could leave the room, Zhou Tong suddenly shouted again: "Wait a minute. Go gather the good guys in the family and follow me out to do things." After hearing this, the housekeeper quickly advised: "Miss Third, do you have anything to tell me? Just do it, you'd better not show your face."
"Shut up! Go and get ready." Zhou Tong shouted impatiently. After the training, the butler may have felt that he spoke a little too much. He softened his tone and explained to the butler: "Butler, the situation has changed now. We can no longer be as ostentatious as before, and we must put our tail between our legs for a while. Just in case Yang If Qi succeeds, not only will we be unlucky, but we will suffer disaster."
Hear this. The housekeeper was also a little panicked. There was no hesitation immediately, and he immediately summoned all the experts in the family to wait for Zhou Tong's order.
The people who were temporarily summoned were a little confused at first, but when they saw Zhou Tong in military uniform, they immediately realized that this matter might be serious. Even the third lady Zhou Tong, who had always been just hiding behind the scenes and commanding, wanted to take action. Went into battle in person.
After scanning the crowd, Zhou Tong said to them in a low voice: "I won't say any more nonsense. You just need to remember that you will do whatever I ask you to do later. Don't ask anything else. Now, follow me." Let's go." Watching Zhou Tong leave with the others, the housekeeper clasped his hands together and prayed silently in his heart, hoping that everything would go well.
Just when Zhou Tong was leading people to search for Yang Qi’s whereabouts, Yang Qi was leading people toAttack Ningping and Han Mengxin who rushed to the front line. This was also the result of Ning Ping's selfish motives. He wanted to spend more time alone with Han Mengxin, so he neither brought a guard nor accompanied Han Yu and others, but just marched towards the front line with Han Mengxin.
In the end, Yang Qi, who had been waiting for the opportunity, seized the opportunity. Yang Qi is the leader of a murderous organization. This time he was entrusted by Zhou Tong to get rid of the woman named Han Mengxin. Murder is just a common occurrence for Yang Qi. For money, not to mention women, even the elderly and children, not a few died at the hands of Yang Qi. In the assassin industry, Yang Qi's reputation is not good, and it is precisely because of his bad reputation that when he received Zhou Tong's commission, Yang Qi immediately agreed without hesitation.
Now that he finally had a chance to succeed, how could Yang Qi let it go? It was just beyond Yang Qi's expectation that the fifth prince Ning Ping would go with the target, which made Yang Qi feel a little embarrassed. Ning Ping's identity determines that Yang Qi does not dare to take action against the fifth prince? But when he thought about the remuneration offered by Zhou Tong, which was enough to keep him happy for a lifetime, Yang Qi felt that it was worth taking the risk. The worst he could do was not hang out in the northern star region in the future.
It was precisely because of this idea that Yang Qi decided to take action. He took action to hold Ning Ping back while his men besieged Han Mengxin. It was just beyond Yang Qi's expectation that Han Mengxin was not as helpless as it seemed. On the contrary, Han Mengxin was still very strong, and several of her subordinates who were considered good players in her eyes had already been knocked to the ground. Temporarily unable to move.
Women are naturally weak and cannot choose to fight head-on when fighting men. Therefore, women's self-defense skills are fully utilized at this moment. After knocking down a few careless people by surprise, Han Mengxin summoned the light suit created by her own ability. It was not easy to kill Han Mengxin in a short while.
Seeing that the goal cannot be achieved. Especially when he was gradually unable to block Ning Ping's attacks, Yang Qi gradually began to give up and prepared to fight another day.
As the emperor's health improved day by day, the atmosphere in the entire palace gradually returned to normal. As the emperor who had been cured, Han Mengxin became the most unprovoked person in the entire palace. There is no other reason, the queen is covering her. In the past, Zhou Tong was protected by the queen. Zhou Tong did not dare to offend anyone in the palace, but now it was Han Mengxin. In addition, Han Mengxin is kind to others, let alone anyone who wants to provoke Han Mengxin, it is too late to get close to her.
Of course, not everyone likes Han Mengxin. Zhou Tong, who felt that he had been deprived of the benefits that should have been his, hated Han Mengxin to the core. It's just that he has never been able to find a chance to make a move, so Zhou Tong can only endure it for the time being.
"Mengxin, are you really unwilling to stay with me in the palace?" the queen asked again.
"Thank you, Queen, for your kindness. It's just that Han Mengxin comes from a rough background and can't adapt to life in the palace. And I don't trust my brother and Ningping to take risks." Han Mengxin explained to the Queen softly.
"Hey, what if something happens to this girl? How about we arrange your marriage to that boy from Ningping first? And then" The queen sighed and retreated. The second one said. But before the queen could finish her words, she saw Ning Rong running in with a panic look on her face. As soon as she came in, she shouted: "Mother, mother. It's not good."
The queen who was interrupted glared at Ning Rong with dissatisfaction and said angrily: "Rong'er, you are already a grown-up, why are you still so crazy? You should learn more from Mengxin, look at how well-behaved your child is."
Ning Rong rolled her eyes dejectedly when she heard this, secretly thinking about her mother's partiality, "Mother, if you have a daughter-in-law, you don't want a daughter."
"What are you doing standing there? What happened?" Seeing Ning Rong not speaking, the queen frowned and asked.
Being questioned, Ning Rong had no choice but to put aside her dissatisfaction and talk about business in a hurry. "Mother, please go and have a look. Father, he wants to go to the front line to have a look."
The queen immediately became anxious when she heard this. According to Han Mengxin's medical advice, the emperor would need at least half a year of recuperation to regain his strength. Isn't it risking his life to go out to do things at this time? It's not yet time for him to risk his life.
"This old man, what is he going to do?" the queen scolded as she got up and walked towards the palace gate. When Ning Rong saw this, she blinked at Han Mengxin and pulled Han Mengxin to follow her.
When the queen hurried to the emperor's palace, she saw the emperor being blocked by a group of people at the door of the palace. Seeing the emperor fully armed, the queen calmed down, walked over slowly and asked: "Your Majesty, the emperor, Where are you planning to go?"
The men of the Ning family have a tradition of being afraid of their wives. Even after becoming emperor, this tradition did not change. Seeing the queen's calm look, the emperor's heart skipped a beat. They were an old couple, and the emperor still understood the queen's habits. At this time, the emperorThe calmer she appears, the more angry she is.
"Hmm Well, Mengxin said that always staying in the room is not good for recuperation. I plan to go out and walk around." The emperor coughed lightly and explained to the queen.
"Do you need to be fully armed to move around?" the queen asked slowly.
"Haha I'll take it off right now, I'll take it off right now." The emperor smiled and returned to the palace to take off the armor he was wearing. At this time, the queen asked Han Mengxin who was following her: "Mengxin, going out for a walk really helps to recover from injuries?"
Glancing at the emperor who was looking at her with pleading eyes, Han Mengxin nodded slightly and replied: "To answer the question to the queen, proper exercise is indeed helpful for recuperating from injuries. However, there is no need to wear helmets and armor, and there is no need to run too far. In fact, just walking around in the palace is enough. And you can’t exercise all the time, you need to balance work and rest"
"Queen, did you hear that? I didn't lie to you." The emperor quickly interrupted Han Mengxin and said to the queen. The queen rolled her eyes at the emperor angrily, nodded and said, "Okay, since Mengxin said you can move around, I will accompany you around in the future."
Hearing the Queen's words, the Emperor's face suddenly fell. The queen just pretended not to see it. She took Han Mengxin's hand and asked: "Mengxin, the emperor happens to be here too. Let's continue the topic just now. Look"
"Father, the car is ready. You still needthe child to see the queen." Ning Ping entered the door and found that the queen was also there, and quickly said hello.
"Hmph! You restless boy. If you want to go to the front line, then you can go. Why drag your father with you? Don't you know that your father is injured?" The queen rushed dissatisfied. Ning Ping complained with a cold snort.
"Yes, you are such an unfilial child." The emperor said in support.
Ning Ping was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood. He looked at the emperor with very troubled eyes and thought to himself: "Who was clamoring to go to the front line just now?"
Maybe I feel a little guilty myself. The emperor did not look at Ning Ping. He turned to look at the queen and said, "Queen, the weather is nice today. Let's go for a walk in the garden."
"Okay. Ping'er, if you want to go to the front line, then go ahead. You are also a descendant of the Ning family, and now the Ning family is in trouble. You should also help. You don't have to worry here. Go to the front line and help your brother." The Queen agreed and said to Ning Ping.
Ning Ping felt happy when he heard this, nodded and replied: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your permission." After saying that, he stretched out his hand to pull Han Mengxin, and ran away without waiting for the Queen to say anything. Seeing that Ning Ping had taken Han Mengxin away, the queen couldn't help but feel a little anxious. Just as she opened her mouth to call them back, she was stopped by the emperor on the side.
"Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Let them decide for themselves. Ronger, go to the garden to make arrangements. Your mother and I are going to sit there in a while."
After hearing the emperor’s order, Ning Rong agreed, turned around and left. After Ning Rong left, the queen said somewhat depressedly: "Why is it so difficult to do something? If it weren't for things like you, I could take the opportunity to finalize the marriage between Ping'er and Mengxin. "
"What? You really don't want that Zhou Tong to be your daughter-in-law?" the emperor joked with a smile.
I heard the emperor mention Zhou Tong. The queen's originally pretty face suddenly darkened. When the emperor saw this, he asked in confusion: "What? Did that child make you unhappy?"
"Emperor, tell me the truth, are you really unaware of your injury this time?" The queen was silent for a moment. He asked slowly while looking at the emperor.

"I already have clues. It can be said that as long as I spend a little more time, I can investigate the true circumstances of your injury at that time."
"I have already issued a gag order."
"I am your wife. My husband was injured, but the wife doesn't even know how her husband was injured. This seems a bit unreasonable."
Hearing this, the emperor was silent for a while, and after ordering not to be disturbed for the time being, he pulled the queen to sit down and said softly to the queen: "How about giving her a chance?"
"It seems that your injury is really related to her." The queen asked, staring at the emperor.
Hearing this, the emperor smiled and said: "Haha not only is it related, it can be said that she was the mastermind behind the whole thing."
"She is so brave!" The emperor personally confirmed it, and the queen could not help butHe was furious and immediately stood up to find trouble for Zhou Tong. Upon seeing this, the emperor quickly grabbed the queen and said, "Sit down, sit down, and listen to what I have to say."

"If that's the case, then I can let his children go. But that Zhou Tong" At the end. The queen's face turned serious. When the emperor saw this, he quickly said: "Forgive her this time."
"You are so confused, she wants to kill you." The queen glared at the emperor with some dissatisfaction and said.
"Alas~ She wanted to kill me but she was actually seeking revenge. This world should have belonged to her Zhou family, but it was taken away by me. Even if it is for her father's sake, I will forgive her this time. If There will be a next time. I will never tolerate it."

But it’s just because he’s smart. After being warned, Zhou Tong was in panic all day long. I originally thought that everything was done perfectly, but I didn't expect that everyone would know about it. Only then did Zhou Tong become afraid.
Fear at its extreme is anger. Zhou Tong, who used herself to save others, began to have random thoughts. She did not know that the emperor had persuaded the queen to forgive her this assassination. On the contrary, she believed that she was already at a critical moment of life and death, as long as she showed a little flaw. An excuse will be found to remove them.

This further aggravated Zhou Tong's suspicion, thinking that the queen did not see him because she wanted to distance herself from him so as not to be implicated by him.
Zhou Tong returned home in despair, feeling that a disaster was imminent, and Zhou Tong was finally afraid. She thought about running away, but when she thought about her clan and her family's heritage, and once she ran away, she would definitely be found guilty. Until now, Zhou Tong still held a trace of illusion, thinking that the emperor was just trying to scare off the enemy to get himself into trouble.
"I can't leave, I can't leave." Zhou Tong told herself over and over again that she couldn't leave. But just when Zhou Tong was giving herself psychological hints, the housekeeper broke in and reported to Zhou Tong in a low voice: "Miss Third, Yang Qi sent someone to send a message, saying that the target has appeared, asking you to prepare. The reward awaits his good news.”
"Hmmhuh? Did you just say that Yang Qi was ready to take action?" Zhou Tong responded casually, but then came back to his senses, grabbed the butler's collar and shouted.
The housekeeper, who had never seen Miss Third lose his temper before, was startled. When Zhou Tong pressed him again, he nodded and replied: "As for Miss Third, according to the time, we should have taken action by now."
"Damn it! Hurry, send someone to stop him!" Zhou Tong screamed inwardly and kept saying to the housekeeper. But the housekeeper looked embarrassed and said to Zhou Tong: "Miss Third, we don't know where Yang Qi plans to ambush the target."

Even the third lady Zhou Tong, who had always been just hiding behind the scenes and commanding, wanted to take action. Went into battle in person.
After scanning the crowd, Zhou Tong said to them in a low voice: "I won't say any more nonsense. You just need to remember that you will do whatever I ask you to do later. Don't ask anything else. Now, follow me." Let's go." Watching Zhou Tong leave with the others, the housekeeper clasped his hands together and prayed silently in his heart, hoping that everything would go well.
Just when Zhou Tong was leading people to search for the whereabouts of Yang Qi, Yang Qi was leading people to besiege Ning Ping and Han Mengxin who were rushing to the front line. This was also the result of Ning Ping's selfish motives. He wanted to spend more time alone with Han Mengxin, so he neither brought a guard nor accompanied Han Yu and others, but just marched towards the front line with Han Mengxin.
In the end, Yang Qi, who had been waiting for the opportunity, seized the opportunity. Yang Qi is the leader of a murderous organization. This time he was entrusted by Zhou Tong to get rid of the woman named Han Mengxin. Murder is just a common occurrence for Yang Qi. For money, not to mention women, even the elderly and children, not a few died at the hands of Yang Qi. In the assassin industry, Yang Qi's reputation is not good, and it is precisely because of his bad reputation that when he received Zhou Tong's commission, Yang Qi immediately agreed without hesitation.
Now that he finally had a chance to succeed, how could Yang Qi let it go? It was just beyond Yang Qi's expectation that the fifth prince Ning Ping would go with the target, which made Yang Qi feel a little embarrassed. Ning Ping's identity determines that Yang Qi does not dare to take action against the fifth prince? But when he thought about the remuneration offered by Zhou Tong, which was enough to keep him happy for a lifetime, Yang Qi felt that it was worth taking the risk. The worst he could do was not hang out in the northern star region in the future.
It was precisely because of this idea that Yang Qi decided to take action. He took action to hold Ning Ping back while his men besieged Han Mengxin. It was just beyond Yang Qi's expectation that Han Mengxin was not as helpless as it seemed. On the contrary, Han Mengxin was still very strong. Several of his subordinates who were considered good players in his eyes had been put to the ground and were temporarily unable to move. .
Women are naturally weak and cannot choose to fight head-on when fighting men. Therefore, women's self-defense skills are fully utilized at this moment. After knocking down a few careless people by surprise, Han Mengxin summoned the light suit created by her own ability. It was not easy to kill Han Mengxin in a short while.
Seeing that he could not win the target, especially since he was gradually unable to block Ning Ping's attacks, Yang Qi began to give up and prepared to fight another day.
