The Silver-Armored Army didn't just kill people. Before anyone could react, four Silver-Armored Guards rushed in.

A black cloth bag was rolled up and the body was taken away directly. Then a special cloth was used to wrap the body on the ground to absorb the blood.

But in the blink of an eye, the body disappeared and the blood was gone.

Apart from the two positions being vacant, it seemed as if nothing had happened.

King Beicang's hand holding the cup kept shaking, and it was unclear whether he was angry or afraid.

Xiao Li leaned back in his chair, one hand raised and placed on the armrest. His eyes were dim and his expression was smiling. He looked very kind: "What did King Bei Cang want to say just now?"

King Bei Cang put down the cup and forced himself to calm down: "No...nothing, I'm old...my eyesight is not very good..."

So he saw nothing, heard nothing.

I had only heard about the empress's cruelty before, but now I am suddenly faced with such brutal methods, which is really hard to accept.

It’s not that King Beicang is kind, he has killed many people.

However, those were all his orders. As a king, he ordered others to take action and rarely took action himself. But now, someone with more power than him was holding a knife to his neck.

After living a life of luxury for many years, he has become timid as he grows older and is afraid of death.

"Plop"

Someone suddenly knelt down. It was the Seventh Prince, Xia Dun. His face was pale with shock. "Father...that's my grandfather!"

King Bei Cang: "..." And then? Your grandfather sought death, and now you want to send your own father to die with him?

“Back off!”

Xia Dun was scolded and looked at King Beicang in disbelief, feeling angry and disappointed.

As the ruler of a country, he watched others killing people in his own palace but dared not say anything.

Xia Mu went to pull him: "Stop making trouble!"

Xia Dun immediately pushed him away and glared at Xiao Li: "Just because you're the empress, you can kill people at will? This is Bei Cang, not Long Sheng."

Xiao Li smiled with interest when he heard this.

"This...Seventh Prince, you are absolutely right. Bei Cang is not Long Sheng."

After she finished speaking, she happily drank a glass of wine, then asked King Beicang with a smile: "I want to unify the world, what do you think, King Beicang?"

King Beicang's face turned pale instantly, he was horrified and angry: "I have not offended the Empress, why can't you tolerate me, Beicang?"

Yang Jun: "Has King Bei Cang forgotten what happened in Changzhou and Qinzhou?"

King Bei Cang immediately argued, "This was not my original intention. It was Xia Jie who instigated it. I was confused for a moment. I regret it now and have punished him since then. I have also always wanted to apologize to the Empress."

He tried to speak as tactfully as possible and to maintain his dignity as the ruler of a country, but he was actually feeling very insecure.

He sent people to offer gifts and apologize several times, but in the end he was unable to meet the empress. He knew this day would come.

Yang Jun sneered, "What a moment of confusion! Bei Cang only has about 30,000 soldiers it can actually use, and 15,000 of them were sent to Changzhou. How could the King of Bei Cang not be so foolish as to just give the entire Yue Kingdom to King Xian?"

King Bei Cang had long since regretted his decision, feeling both regretful and angry. He was the king of a country after all, so how could he allow himself to be scolded like this? But he didn't want to die.

He did not answer Yang Jun, but raised his glass to the Empress beside him: "I apologize to Her Majesty the Empress. Please forgive me this time. From now on, Bei Cang is willing to form an eternal friendship with Long Sheng and will never betray me."

Xiao Li smiled and leaned back in his chair: "King Bei Cang, you are old."

A king's promise is only valid while he is alive. Once he dies, who can stop the new emperor from doing anything?

Besides, what Xiao Li wanted was never eternal peace. Between countries, there were only common interests or mutual devotion.

Before King Beicang understood why the Empress said he was old, there was a sudden sound of sword fighting outside.

A silver-armored guard came in and reported, "Your Majesty, we have discovered the fugitive, Xu Nianqing, the advisor to the King of Xian."

Xiao Li smiled playfully: "This is the Northern Cang Palace, how come my Long Sheng's fugitive is here?"

How would King Bei Cang know? He didn't even know Xu Nianqing: "This has nothing to do with me. I really don't know."

Xiao Li's patience ran out, and he didn't bother to waste any more words with him. He took the handkerchief handed to him by Hong Yue and wiped his hands: "It doesn't matter. This palace is good. Let's call it Beicang Palace."

As soon as she finished speaking, the Silver-Armored Guards rushed in and arrested all the people from Beicang.

King Beicang, the only one sitting on the high platform, was so frightened that his face changed. He wanted to stand up but his legs went weak and he knelt down from his seat.

"Empress, don't go too far!"

He forced himself to stand up, his expression twisted with anger, his hands shaking: "This is Bei Cang..."

Xiao Li glanced at him lazily: "I know this is Bei Cang, but from now on, it's called Long Sheng."

After she finished speaking, she stood up, stopped looking at him, and strode towards the door.

Anyone from the Beicang people behind him who dared to speak wildly and curse the empress was killed with a single blow of his sword. After killing three or four of them, the rest knew to shut up. Even the King of Beicang, who was sitting in the main seat, was so angry that his face turned red, but he didn't dare to curse a single word.

When Xiao Li went out the door, he saw a group of silver-armored guards besieging Xu Nianqing and his companions.

In addition to Xu Nianqing, there were two women and three men.

A woman dressed like someone from the Southern Region, with silver jewelry jingling all over her body, was beating and poisoning people at the same time. It was obvious that she was the one who had rescued Xu Nianqing before.

The other woman was very strong, with ferocious moves and great strength. She looked a bit like Niu Jiuhua, but not necessarily.

The three men's kung fu skills were quite good. They surrounded Xu Nianqing and fought back and forth with the Yin family guards.

Xiao Li stood far away and did not go closer. He wanted to see how Xu Nianqing could escape in broad daylight with so many people around.

However, the moment Xu Nianqing saw her, his expression suddenly changed, and he stared at her with dark and angry eyes, as if he had seen a blood feud with her. The next moment, he wanted to come towards her regardless of everything.

The other five people saw him and immediately tried to pull him back, but none of them could stop him.

Xiao Li watched as he was assisted by God, and he led his men to kill his way out of the Silver Armor Guards.

Xiao Li raised an eyebrow. Was Golden Consciousness trying to help him, or was it sending him to his own death?

Rong Qing was about to go over with his knife in hand, but Xiao Li said, "Let him come over."

The Silver-Armored Guards suddenly stepped aside, and the six men were stunned for a moment and stopped.

Looking at Xu Nianqing, she saw him staring at the empress with a very complicated look, full of anger, nervousness and anticipation.

Finally, he started walking towards the empress, each step was so heavy, and was stopped ten feet away. He did not move closer but stared at Xiao Li, as if he wanted to see her thoroughly.

"You know who I am. You remember everything, right?"

Xiao Li curled his lips, revealing a playful and evil expression: "Yes, I remember everything."

When Xu Nianqing heard the answer he wanted, he was not happy, but his heart skipped a beat.

She admitted it, but her expression was wrong.

There was no love he expected from a mother looking at her son, no guilt, no hatred, only the look of looking at prey.

Is she really the mother he is looking for?
