"My lady, what's wrong with you?"
Li Mu looked at it strangely.
Why does this scene feel familiar?
In the TV dramas of my past life, those women who committed suicide for love seemed to have their last moments...
Li Mu didn't dare to think further.
He hurried into the bedroom.
"Little Leo, why haven't you left yet?"
Concubine Jing was startled, then surprised.
"Your Majesty, everything is fine outside. The bad guys who broke into the palace have been killed."
Li Mu hurriedly explained.
Not long after leaving Shouning Palace, Concubine Jing was already ready to commit suicide.
Fortunately, he didn't dare to delay and came back.
"Nonsense! It's chaos outside. Now get out!"
Concubine Jing scolded angrily.
"Well……"
Li Mu was speechless.
At this time, the palace was filled with shouts and cries of killing.
The sounds of rushing footsteps of teams of guards and the clashing of weapons and armor poured into Shouning Palace continuously.
Those who were unaware actually thought that the palace had been lost.
"Your Majesty, please do not commit suicide. The noise outside is just the palace masters arresting the remaining bad guys."
No matter how Concubine Jing misunderstood, what needed to be explained had to be explained.
"You just said that all the bad guys were killed, and now you're talking about arresting the rest. Little Leo, when did you learn to lie?"
Concubine Jing obviously didn't believe Li Mu.
What knowledge can a little eunuch have?
He seized upon the problems in Li Mu's words and refuted them.
"I'm not lying! As soon as I left the palace, I saw the intruder being cut down by a mysterious master inside the palace. The others who broke in turned and ran away. I was so excited that I hurried back to tell you."
"Those masters come and go without a trace. How can a mere eunuch like you understand their clashes? If you want to lie, you should make it sound convincing."
"I……"
Li Mu was speechless.
Seeing Concubine Jing holding the knife, he became anxious again.
My damn mouth!
Why can't you just coax people?
When did this woman become so smart?
"Go, don't come back after you leave the palace. If you come back again, I will... I will stab myself."
As Concubine Jing spoke, she raised the knife high.
"My Lady, why don't we leave together? It's so chaotic outside anyway."
Li Mu suddenly had an idea.
Let Concubine Jing go out and take a look. Just one look will make her believe what he said.
"Little Li, stop trying to persuade me. What will happen if I leave? You might be able to live a few more years outside, but you'll only die in the palace."
"The world outside is very complicated. I think the palace is still safe."
Li Mu told the truth.
"How can you be so ignorant...get out!"
Concubine Jing was furious.
Li Mu looked up at Concubine Jing and shrank his neck.
What should I do?
How to comfort an old woman when she is angry?
"My lady, listen, it's quiet outside."
"You're trying to trick me again."
"My lady, it's true. If you don't believe me, listen carefully."
"roll!"
Li Mu shrank his neck again.
Why don’t you listen?
The two of them fought like this for a long time.
Until Concubine Jing felt so sleepy that she could no longer hold on and took a nap.
Li Mu took the opportunity to press Jing Fei's sleeping point.
While Li Mu and Concubine Jing were "confronting each other", chaos broke out outside the imperial city.
It started from that day with the shocking sword intent.
Countless masters inside and outside Kyoto saw it.
Especially in Kyoto.
There are many experts hidden here, and it is close to the palace.
They had already sensed it when the eight peak-level warriors in the Spirit Control Realm appeared.
Then they saw a scene that shocked them for the rest of their lives.
"Could it be that the ancestor is still alive?"
"I dare not guess at the palace's background."
"It seems that it is not the time for a change of dynasty yet!"
"The Dugu family is in danger."
…
The hidden masters from various families sighed.
There are excitement and there are disappointments.
At the same time, spies hidden in various families in Kyoto sent the message via carrier pigeons.
The central military tent outside the city also received the news brought back by Nightingale.
"What? There are Saint-level masters in the Imperial City. The eight people at the peak of the Imperial Spirit Realm that we sent into the Imperial City were all killed."
Dugu Xin took the message and read it, and said in surprise.
"let me see!"
Patriarch Dugu snatched the note and read it, his hands began to tremble.
"The royal family actually has a Saint-level warrior. Could it be that their ancestor has returned?"
"What are you afraid of? It's not like their royal family only has Saint-level warriors. Our Dugu family has some too. Even if we fail this time, our Dugu family will have no problem establishing its own territory."
An elder of the Dugu family said.
"I'm so heartbroken! If I had known there were Saint-level warriors in the royal family, I wouldn't have sent them to die... It's all because of my poor intelligence."
"Clan leader! Wasn't the purpose of our initial dispatch of a few people to test whether the royal family still had Saint-level warriors? The other eight formed a formation to contain the royal family warriors. We just didn't expect that eight people would fail!"
The elder advised.
"How on earth did they fail?"
The message coming back was vague.
It does not describe the specific process, but only records the results.
"It must have been a surprise attack by that old fellow in the palace. Think about it, we've been besieging the city for a whole day, and none of their Saint-level warriors have appeared."
"The royal saint has been hiding for so many years, probably waiting for a day like this. Fortunately, we have tested their trump card tonight."
Dugu Xin said angrily.
At the same time, this statement also confirmed the Great Elder's speculation.
The eight masters of the Yuling Realm must have been tricked by the saint-level warrior of the royal family.
"There are at least two peak-level Yuling Realm warriors in the palace. With them holding us back, it would be too easy for a Saint-level warrior to kill our Yuling Realm warriors."
