A golden light enveloped Emperor Jing, instantly scorching the approaching black mist.
"Golden light of merit? How could that be?"
The black mist naturally recognized the golden light; it was its old nemesis, and it never expected to appear on a human emperor.
Either there is a powerful sorcerer here, or this emperor is blessed with the merits of his ancestors.
No, he hasn't recovered yet; we can't let him get caught.
escape!
Upon realizing this, the black mist instantly dissipated and vanished without a trace.
"Your Majesty, are you alright? I deserve to die for failing to protect you."
Shadow One and the others knelt down on the ground, for this was a dereliction of duty by their Dragon Shadow Guard.
They almost caused the emperor to be injured in front of them.
It seems the Dragon Shadow Guard will need to recruit some sorcerers.
"Get up, this power is not something you can handle."
Emperor Jing also knew that this was beyond the capabilities of the Dragon Shadow Guards.
To improve their skills in this area, it seems we need to find a way to get Jing Le to train them.
Just as they were about to leave, the second anomaly occurred.
The empress, who had been hiding in the shadows in the middle of the hall, now had red, bloodshot eyes.
He was holding a dagger in his hand at an unseen speed, and approached Emperor Jing.
"Die! All of you die!"
"Father, be careful!"
"Your Majesty, be careful!"
"No, Mother!"
In the blink of an eye, Jing Le had arrived beside Emperor Jing and struck out with a palm just as the dagger pierced his body.
"Bang!"
"Crackling and popping!"
"puff!"
The queen was knocked down, crashing into the prepared dishes, shattering the bowls and chopsticks all over the floor.
"Lele, are you alright?"
When Emperor Jing saw his youngest daughter shielding him with her tiny body, which was barely taller than his knees, his heart softened.
He bent down, pulled the person into his arms, and asked.
"I'm fine. I should be the one asking Father if you're alright."
Just now, Jing Le saw the Empress holding a dagger, about to kill Emperor Jing, and there was a faint demonic aura in her eyes.
Without much thought, he immediately stepped forward and stood in front of Emperor Jing.
She had forgotten that Emperor Jing had a protective magic weapon she had specially made, so no one could harm him.
"Father is alright. He has a protective magic item given to him by Lele, and it is protecting him."
Emperor Jing raised the jade pendant at his waist.
He had just clearly seen that when the dark figure tried to possess him, the jade pendant emitted a golden light.
The golden light enveloped itself, protecting it, and this time the black mist failed to succeed.
Lele's products are indeed extraordinary.
Yingyi and the others stepped forward and subdued the Empress. When they turned around, they saw the Emperor holding Jingle in one arm and examining the jade pendant in the other.
The Dragon Shadow Guards and the Second Prince present were filled with questions and shock.
Just now, Jing Le was standing next to the Emperor when she slapped the Empress away.
At that time, Jing Le was more than ten meters away from the emperor, while he himself was only two or three meters away from the emperor.
Even with such a short distance, Jing Le, a three-year-old child, managed to get there first.
And what the Emperor just said, that protective shield-like thing was emitted by the jade pendant?
This item was actually a gift from Jing Le to Emperor Jing.
After figuring it out, Shadow One and the others, and considering the attitudes of Shadow Three and the others, instantly understood.
The emotional music not only enjoys the emperor's favor but also possesses great power; it might even be a formidable sorcerer.
I heard that Jing Le grew up under Master Liao Wu, so maybe she learned her skills from her master.
After thinking it through, they also wanted to be transferred to Jing Le's side, but they didn't know if the little princess was still accepting people.
"What's wrong with the Empress? It seems like she's being controlled by demonic energy."
Jing Le spoke to Emperor Jing.
In fact, she noticed the demonic aura as soon as she returned to the palace; it was very faint.
When they arrived following the demonic energy, they witnessed the Empress assassinating Emperor Jing.
She can still sense a faint demonic aura in the room, mostly emanating from the Empress's body.
"Demonic energy? You mean that black mist?"
Emperor Jing knew that Jing Le was knowledgeable, so he told him everything that had just happened.
"That black mist wants to seize Father's body?"
Jing Le was extremely surprised, as this was not mentioned in the plot.
[Wasn't it said that person stole Second Brother's body? How did he end up in the palace, and even set his sights on Father Emperor?]
[That's strange. Could it be that because they failed to seize Father's body, they chose Second Brother, thus indirectly causing Father's death?]
The Second Prince and Emperor Jing also felt that Jing Le's analysis made sense.
It turns out the Second Prince was a scapegoat.
Seeing the Empress becoming increasingly frantic, muttering curses, the Second Prince stepped forward and asked, "Mother, why are you doing this?"
"Get out of here! I'm not your mother. Why? Because he wronged me. He married me but his heart is still with that slut."
The empress's eyes were red-rimmed, and in the end, tears of blood flowed from them.
The voice became even more shrill: "It's all your fault, why should I bear the blame for everything?"
"If you hadn't ignored me, how would I have discovered that old scoundrel's ambitions when I went back to my parents' home?"
"In the end, she was raped and violated by that old scoundrel, all because of you."
"Hahaha, you guys don't know yet, do you? He, he's the second prince of the Great Yong Dynasty."
"He's not Jingyao's son, hahaha, he's that old thief's son, you didn't know that, did you? Hahahaha..."
"What? Impossible? This is impossible!"
The second prince was completely dumbfounded, as if struck by lightning. He didn't even know he wasn't Emperor Jing's child.
It turns out that the child was born from the prime minister's violation of his own daughter.
