The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

There was only a faint red light flickering in the ruined temple, reflecting the tired yet alert expressions of Mo Shaoxie and others.

Mo Shaoxie suddenly opened his eyes and captured the unusual movements around him as keenly as a cheetah.

The secret guards in the ruined temple also became alert instantly, staring outside with sharp eyes.

Shangguan Ziling was awakened by Mo Shaoxie's movements. She opened her eyes lazily and looked at Mo Shaoxie with a teasing smile on her lips: "Mo Shaoxie, is trouble coming?"

Her tone was relaxed, as if she didn't care about the impending danger.

Mo Shaoxie smiled slightly and comforted her: "Ling'er, it's okay, you sleep, they are just some minions." His voice was calm and firm, as if everything was under his control.

Shangguan Ziling was speechless when she heard this. She looked at Mo Shaoxie's calm expression and knew that he had already made arrangements.

"I'm not a pig, how can I sleep in this situation?" Faced with this situation, it is naturally impossible to sleep.

Just then, a series of uniform footsteps were heard outside the dilapidated temple.

Dozens of men in black wearing straw raincoats appeared in sight, holding sharp blades and staring at the ruined temple with cold eyes.

The leading man in black suddenly shouted, "Kill!" In an instant, the men in black rushed towards the ruined temple like a tide.

The man in black who just rushed to the gate of the ruined temple was hit head-on by the secret guards.

The two sides started a fierce battle at the narrow gate of the ruined temple. The sound of swords clashing, roars, and screams intertwined together, forming a thrilling scene.

Mo Shaoxie sat by the fire, holding Shangguan Ziling without moving, observing the battle calmly.

Shangguan Ziling watched the men in black and the secret guards fighting in the heavy rain. None of the men in black broke through the secret guards' defense and rushed to them.

Shangguan Ziling saw that Mo Shaoxie's secret guards had the upper hand, so she was no longer anxious and said, "Mo Shaoxie, have we been discovered? Who do you think sent these men in black?"

"It's not difficult to guess. Those who came to assassinate me just want me to die outside. And these men in black are obviously death warriors. There are not many people in the capital who keep death warriors in captivity."

Shangguan Ziling said: "I really don't understand. With you here, the border is safe. The enemy country doesn't dare to send troops to attack the Dongyue Dynasty easily. If you die, what good will it do them? Why can't they tolerate you?"

"My achievements are greater than my master's, and I pose a threat to him. Ha, I have never cared about that position, but he always thinks that I am going to rebel and wants to get rid of me as soon as possible."

The fighting outside was in full swing, but Shangguan Ziling and Mo Shaoxie were chatting leisurely, not affected by the scene outside at all.

"Master, who are you talking about? The old emperor?"

"It's obvious that it's the old emperor. We're leaving tonight, and not only is he well-informed, but he also sent out so many assassins at once. The old emperor doesn't show it on his face, but I'm afraid every official in the court knows how much he wants to get rid of Mo Shaoxie."

"Alas! The Regent is extremely powerful, no wonder the old emperor is keeping an eye on him. He has only been out for a few hours, and he has encountered so many men in black trying to assassinate him. We don't know what will happen next. Master, why don't you go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion and don't take risks with your man."

"Don't worry, little Fatty. Mo Shaoxie has selected so many secret guards to accompany him. Nothing will happen."

In the ruined temple late at night, a fierce battle between the men in black and the secret guards was going on.

Amid the flash of swords and sabers, both sides fought back and forth, trying their best to defeat each other.

Outside the dilapidated temple, the heavy rain hit them as if they had no feeling at all. There was only the enemy in front of them, accompanied by the crisp sound of metal colliding and the heavy breathing of the soldiers.

However, in this battle of blood and fire, Mo Shaoxie stood out. He held Shangguan Ziling in his arms, as if he were in another world, relaxed and at ease.

His eyes were deep and bright, as if he could see through everything, yet seemed detached from this fight.

Shangguan Ziling was lying in Mo Shaoxie's arms, looking at the injured secret guards. Xue Zhiyan was bandaging the injured secret guards.

Shangguan Ziling said: "Qiu Kui, bring me my shoulder bag."

"yes "

Qiu Kui, who was guarding around them, went to the carriage next to them and took out Shangguan Ziling's bag.

Qiu Kui took the bag and handed it to Shangguan Ziling. Shangguan Ziling took out two bottles of hemostatic medicine from the bag and handed them to Qiu Kui, saying, "Go help Doctor Xue and apply this hemostatic medicine to the injured secret guard. It will work well."

"Yes, Miss"

But there was a gleam of determination in his eyes. Qiu Kui took the bottle of hemostatic medicine given by Shangguan Ziling, walked to Xue Zhiyan, and said, "My eldest lady said this is hemostatic medicine. Use hers, it's effective."

Xue Zhiyan took the bottle of medicine like a treasure, and together with Qiu Kui, he treated the injured secret guard.

All the noise and chaos around them seemed to have nothing to do with them. Mo Shaoxie's embrace was warm and solid, giving her an unprecedented sense of security.

She closed her eyes, listening to his strong heartbeat and smelling the faint fragrance emanating from his body. At this moment, time seemed to stand still, and only the two of them were left to depend on each other in this chaotic world.

Mo Shaoxie's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a confident smile. He knew that no matter how many difficulties and obstacles there were ahead, as long as they worked hand in hand, nothing could stop them.

The sudden attack did not disrupt their peace and tranquility.

Half an hour later, all the men in black were strangled to death by the secret guards.

"Deal with it," Mo Shaoxie said calmly.

The uninjured secret guards immediately dragged the body of the man in black to the woods behind the ruined temple in the heavy rain, dug a pit and buried it.

"Ling'er, it's getting late, go to bed," Mo Shaoxie said softly.

"I can't sleep with such a strong smell of blood," said Shangguan Ziling.
