Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family

After hearing the news, Ling Yan was so angry that he smashed the jar of fifty-year-old girl's red wine that he was reluctant to drink: "Ling Yao actually played a trick on me, played a trick on me, what a bastard!"

The staff stood in the corner, covered in dust and dirt, not daring to say a word.

However, as soon as Ling Yao returned to his palace, a secret guard whispered something in his ear.

Ling Yao's face was gloomy, and his hands on both sides clenched tighter and tighter until his whole body was shaking, and finally he overturned the table to the ground.

Why? Why do my mother and grandfather do this?

"Aren't they too biased? They asked my assassins to kill Hu Zhenfang and the others. What if they find out? They don't care about my safety at all!"

"The Crown Prince has his own assassins, and even the Duke Dingguo's Mansion has some too. Why do you want to use my people? Why?"

The secret guard dared not say much.

Tears slowly slid down Ling Yao's face, cold to the bone, and he fell to the ground. From childhood to adulthood, he always lived under the shadow of Ling Ji, as if his life was meant to make him the crown prince.

"That's right. He is the eldest son of the emperor and the first son of the queen mother. He was born a prince. It is right that all of us have to become his pawns and pave the way for him to ascend to the top."

The secret guard couldn't help but persuade him: "Your Highness, please think more positively..."

Ling Yao raised his head. Someone once told him that as long as he raised his head high, the tears would not fall.

But that person lied to him, and the tears still flowed into his neck, into his lapels, and into his chest.

……

Early the next morning, Li Shuangwan talked with housekeeper Wu and took everyone to inspect Ling Heng's several manors and farms.

An hour later, the carriage carrying Li Shuangwan and others had already traveled about twenty miles out of the city gate. Because they were going to the outskirts of the city, Steward Wu had ordered a dozen guards to guard both sides of the carriage.

Steward Wu: "Princess, we will reach the manor in another thirty miles. Your Highness's five manors are connected together. If we hurry today, we can visit all of them at once."

Just like the last time I visited the shop, I took a quick tour.

"Okay." Li Shuangwan's voice came from the carriage. She was fiddling with the jade bracelet on her hand. The gold needle inside was made of black iron. Although it was thin, it was extremely hard.

Exquisite workmanship and profound knowledge inside.

When she came out today, she put a dozen more gold needles in it.

The carriage had entered the dense forest by now, and it was eerily quiet everywhere.

Li Shuangwan's pupils shrank and he looked up suddenly.

Yizhu: "Princess, what's wrong?"

In a flash, Li Shuangwan pressed down the heads of the two maids with one hand each, and then heard several sharp arrows flying towards the carriage with a whirring sound, penetrating the windows and nailing into the wall of the carriage.

"There is an assassin, protect the princess!" Butler Wu shouted while hiding behind the carriage.

Li Shuangwan's eyes were cold. These people came with great force and were well-trained. They were obviously coming for her.

She held Yizhu and Luoman's hands tightly to prevent them from panicking out of fear.

"Princess, what should we do?" Yizhu's voice trembled, but she still tried to stay calm. She knew that only the princess could save them at this time.

It would be great if the princess's martial arts were still there. During this period, the princess has been doing horse stance every day to strengthen her body, but even so, no one knows when she can recover her amazing kung fu.

When Yizhu thought of this, his eyes suddenly turned red.

Li Shuangwan took a deep breath. These assassins came well prepared and their target was her. She couldn't just sit there and wait to die.

"Butler Wu, have the guards form a circle and kill the enemy with all their might!" Li Shuangwan ordered loudly.

When Butler Wu heard the order, he immediately ordered the guards to take action.

These guards were well-trained and quickly formed a protective circle, surrounding the carriage tightly.

However, the assassins' attacks did not weaken, and arrows continued to fly towards the carriage.

Several guards have been shot and fallen to the ground.

"Sit still and don't move." Li Shuangwan said as he opened the carriage door.

"Princess!" Yizhu and Luoman exclaimed.

"Sit back!" Li Shuangwan shouted and looked outside.

The carriage was surrounded, and dozens of masked men in black were pointing arrows at it. When they saw her coming out, one of them raised his hand to stop the rain of arrows.

The man pointed at Li Shuangwan and said, "I won't make things difficult for you. I only want her. If you know what's best for you, keep her. Otherwise, none of you will survive!"

Butler Wu popped his head out from the back of the carriage and said, "How dare you, do you know who she is and who we are? How dare you come and rob us! We are from Prince Heng's mansion, and she is Prince Heng's concubine. If you dare to touch her, be careful that His Royal Highness Prince Heng will not forgive you."

"Humph, I don't care who you are. Someone paid to kill this bitch. Get out of here right now if you know what's best for you!"

Li Shuangwan's heart trembled. If he wanted to kill her, he would have shot her to death the moment she appeared.

Why are robbers nowadays so loyal that they even greet the guards first so that they can escape?

These people obviously wanted to capture her alive.

The guards standing around the carriage looked at each other, and then looked at Butler Wu.

Butler Wu stamped his feet and shouted, "Why are you looking at me? Come on, are you really going to hand over the princess?"

Upon hearing this, the guards raised their knives and rushed towards the men in black.

However, they were outnumbered and the guards were injured and fell one after another. The situation was getting worse and worse.

Yizhu and Luoman hugged each other tightly, they were already scared out of their wits.

Li Shuangwan clenched her fists. She had no martial arts skills now, and the horse stance she had practiced for a while was of no use at all. It was too difficult for her to escape.

At this moment, the horse pulling the cart let out a long neigh and raised its front hooves high. It had been hit by several arrows. It fell heavily to the ground and died with a thud, overturning the cart with it.

There were only five guards left, and they were all injured.

Butler Wu was so scared that he hid aside.

Li Shuangwan pursed his lips tightly, climbed out of the carriage, and told the two maids not to make any sound. He picked up the knife on the ground and rushed over to fight with the man in black.

Roman tried to climb out of the carriage: "We are the princess's maids. We should protect the princess. How can we let the princess protect us?"

Yizhu pulled the person back and said, "Don't make trouble."

"She is the master and we are the servants."

"The master protects his people, don't you know?" Yizhu held onto Luo Man tightly, "If we go out, it will only distract the princess."

Outside the carriage, the guards brought from the palace fell to the ground wailing.

Li Shuangwan's eyes were cold and he clenched the knife tightly. After more than ten years in the army, he no longer had any martial arts skills, but he still had the skills to kill.

She slashed left and right with a nimble movement. For a moment, the men in black could not take her down. Two of them were even injured by the knife she swung.
