Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

The murderous words made everyone change their expression. This completely infuriated Ning Zhiwei. Which bastard did this?

Everyone's heart was hanging in the air. "Your Majesty, Duke Weiguo is blessed with a good fortune and will definitely return safely."

"Yes, yes, he will be safe."

"Don't be angry yet, let us down and we will help you find a solution."

Ning Zhiwei looked at them coldly, "Wrong, it's to help you. The life and death of your nine clans depends on the Duke of Weiguo."

"Send the order and send a team to spread the word everywhere: If the Duke of Wei is killed, all nine clans of the noble family will be wiped out, leaving no one alive. If he is returned at midnight today, only the main culprit will be executed."

"Yes."

The son of the noble family felt his heart sink to the bone and was extremely panicked. She had come all the way here to kill people, and she was definitely the iron-blooded empress.

Ning Zhiwei was sitting under the flagpole, with an indifferent expression, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

She didn't say anything, and no one dared to say anything. Time passed little by little, and the sun gradually rose higher.

"Your Majesty, it's time for lunch."

"Let's set the table."

Steamed spare ribs with fermented black beans, stir-fried loofah, blanched prawns, scrambled eggs with chili peppers, and old hen soup.

The nobles were stunned. How could they eat such a simple meal? They usually ate delicacies from land and sea, and they never tired of fine food. This dish was complicated to make and the ingredients were extremely particular.

For example, a dish of eggplant fish requires more than a dozen chickens and more than a dozen side dishes, which is very complicated and sophisticated.

Ning Zhiwei is an emperor, but he is so shabby? Is she really broke?

Ning Zhiwei completely ignored what these people thought and chatted with Zhou Hongye while eating.

"We blew up Su Mingjin's explosives warehouse, and there was no time to make new ones. But we can use our explosives."

Mr. Zhou's eyes lit up, "Has it been delivered?"

Ning Zhiwei said calmly, "They have been delivered. They are all in the hands of the Jinyiwei. They will use them. If they suddenly attack on the battlefield, it will definitely have a miraculous effect."

Mr. Zhou couldn't help but sigh, "It would be great if we could blow Su Mingjin to death."

Ning Zhiwei also wanted to kill Su Mingjin directly and end the war as soon as possible.

"It's a bit difficult. He is very afraid of death and always hides at the back. He is surrounded by three layers of guards, and there are 2,000 of them alone."

Mr. Zhou's mind moved, "Don't we have Su Mingjin's half-brothers in our hands? When the fight starts, push them to the front."

Ning Zhiwei narrowed her eyes slightly, "Good idea. If Su Mingjin doesn't save the dying, he will be known as a heartless and unjust person. We should promote him. No one in the world would dare to vote for him, and the people would be afraid of him."

Mr. Zhou laughed. "He didn't even save his own brothers, so how could he be kind to his subordinates and the people? This way, he has lost the support of the people."

When the noble families heard them plotting against Su Mingjin, they became even more panicked. Did they have no intention of letting them live by letting them hear these secrets?

Mr. Zhou remembered something, "It is said that Lin Jingshu disappeared on the battlefield, and Su Mingjin was very worried."

Ning Zhiwei smiled coldly, "He is worried that Lin Jingshu will fall into the hands of the enemy and leak the formula of the explosives."

Mr. Zhou also knew Su Mingjin's nature, and he would only use anyone he could get. "Whose hands did she fall into?"

Ning Zhiwei said a name and Mr. Zhou was stunned with a dazed expression.

After the two of them finished their meal, there were also some fruit snacks. The noble family boys' stomachs were growling with hunger and they really wanted to eat!

At this time, you don’t need to ask for something too exquisite; a steamed bun will do.

However, not to mention a steamed bun, I wasn’t even allowed a sip of water.

In the words of Ning Zhiwei, people are almost dead, so don't waste food.

The mentality of the children of the noble families completely collapsed, and they kept begging for mercy. Some were willing to hand over their hidden property.

After an unknown amount of time, a guard came over with a letter, "Your Majesty, this is a letter from the kidnappers."

The Jinyiwei stepped forward, opened the letter, and made sure that there was no problem before passing it to Ning Zhiwei.

Ning Zhiwei took a closer look and couldn't help but sneered, "Let me go to Tingxue Tower to negotiate?"

They are so bold, they don't know whether they live or die. She could help them.

"Who owns Listening Snow Tower?"

Everyone looked at the head of the Wang family, "It's the Wang family."

The head of the Wang family was confused for a moment, and then he desperately cried out for justice, "No, no, no, it wasn't our Wang family who did it. We didn't kidnap the Duke of Wei."

Ning Zhiwei looked at him coldly, "How do you prove it?"

The guards around her had their hands on the swords at their waists. As long as she gave the order, the head of the Wang family would be beheaded immediately.

Sweat rolled down the forehead of the head of the Wang family, and he was terrified. "Your Majesty, the Wang family is willing to serve you as the master and obey your orders."

"The ancient jade on my neck is the token of the head of the Wang family. You can command everyone in the Wang family with it."

Ning Zhiwei took the ancient jade and took a look at it. It had an ancient feel to it, and a Chinese character "王" was written in a dancing style.

"Yu Qing, go and decorate Tingxue Tower. I will go there myself."

Mr. Zhou's face changed, "Your Majesty, you must not do that. You are a great ruler, you cannot take risks yourself."

Others also advised, "Your Majesty, you cannot go. Let your subordinates go on your behalf."

Ning Zhiwei's eyes were firm, "I have made up my mind."

"Pass the order down. If the prince of Weiguo does not return, kill all the noble families. Cut off the roots and leave no one alive."

"Yes."

Before Ning Zhiwei left, she said a few words to Zhou Hongye. Zhou Hongye hesitated and wanted to persuade her not to leave, but he knew that she was a person of final say and could not be persuaded.

"I'm counting on you for everything. Don't let me down."

Mr. Zhou sighed silently, "Yes, you must be careful."

Listening Snow Tower is a small building located on the lakeside. It has three floors and is very elegantly decorated. It is a favorite place for literati and poets.

There are several small boats downstairs. The lake is vast and the scenery is beautiful. You can go boating when the weather is good.

At this time, a group of soldiers surrounded a luxurious carriage and slowly came over.

When the people in Tingxue Tower heard the announcement, they stood up abruptly, unable to believe it, "Is he really here?"

"coming."

The leading man sneered, "Ning Zhiwei is no more brave than anyone else, risking her life personally. I wonder why those old guys are afraid of her? They even asked us to treat her well, haha."

"Let's go and welcome the empress."

Although she said "Yingying", she was actually standing on the third floor, looking down from a high position, with an unattainable attitude.

The soldiers stopped and the curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing a snow-white hand.

Seeing this, several people joked in a very frivolous way, "I know she's a stunning beauty even before I even meet her."

"How can such a bastard be an emperor? It's so tiring. It's better for him to sleep with me and let me take good care of him..."

Ning Zhiwei, who was sitting in the carriage, took a quick look, made a quick assessment, and said sternly, "Shoot."

At the command, the archery team instantly formed a battle array, drew their bows and strings, and shot arrows like rain, breaking the silence of the air, all shooting at the people upstairs...
