Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

The pupils of the people upstairs shook violently and their minds went blank until a sharp pain came and screams rang out.

The sudden attack left several people injured and bleeding.

The most seriously injured person lost his balance and fell from the third floor, hitting the ground hard and breaking his head.

His face was pale and he looked at the carriage as he was dying, so cruel and vicious.

Didn't he just say something unpleasant? And this is retribution?

He took his last breath, his eyes wide open in unwillingness.

Ning Zhiwei took the initiative as soon as he arrived and defeated the opponent's arrogance.

Why are you so arrogant? Let's fight with real weapons.

Those young men from noble families had never been to the battlefield and had never seen such a bloody scene. They were all stunned with fear.

If the guards in the house had not rushed over to protect their master without hesitation, they would have all died.

Even so, batches of guards from aristocratic families fell in pools of blood.

It's not that they didn't want to fight back, but the attack of the Divine Archery Team was impenetrable. They were in groups of two, taking turns to send out arrows. When one retreated, the other would take over, and their coordination was seamless.

The leading man hid in the corner and pulled out the arrow from his shoulder with ruthless determination, and blood gushed out like rain.

With trembling hands, he tried to stop the bleeding and bandage the wound. After he finally finished, he was already soaked all over, as if he had been fished out of the river.

He looked at the corpses all over the ground, the strong smell of blood lingering in his nose, and his face was extremely solemn.

Those who were still alive hid in the house, lying on their stomachs, not daring to look up.

Only after hearing the sound of bows and arrows outside had stopped did he dare to sit up.

The leading man laughed bitterly, "We were wrong. We shouldn't have been so arrogant. If we offend the empress, I'm afraid she won't let us go."

"We have hostages in our hands, she doesn't dare..."

"Don't dare to fart. So many people have died."

Every floor of Tingxue Tower was packed with their people, not only the loyal family guards, but also a group of martial arts masters.

As long as Ning Zhiwei entered Tingxue Tower, they would be trapped in a jar and everything would be decided by them.

As a result, the enemy didn't even come in, and they started shooting right away.

The leading man tried his best to stand up, but he didn't dare to show his face. "Your Majesty, my name is Yuan Dazhong, and I am the head of the fifth branch of the Yuan family."

"Your Majesty, we are negotiating in good faith. Please show some mercy."

Someone from the Yuan family? He sounds young. Is this a bait? Or a test?

Ning Zhiwei lowered his eyes, a trace of contemplation flashed in his eyes, "Are you sincere in kidnapping this person?"

"What about people?"

Yuan Dazhong did not dare to show any contempt, and replied tremblingly, "Duke Wei is safe, we did not harm him."

Ning Zhiwei asked aggressively, "Where is he? I want to see him now."

Yuan Dazhong's face turned pale. "The person is not here. He is in a very safe place. Your Majesty, let's talk."

Ning Zhiwei snorted coldly, "Want to talk? Sure, first hand over the people who came up with the idea and the people who executed it."

Yuan Dazhong was silent, "I'm afraid that won't work. If you want to defend the country fairly and safely, you have to put up with it for now."

Even if you are an emperor, you cannot do whatever you want.

Ning Zhiwei narrowed his eyes, "Prepare the explosives."

Explosives? Everyone in the small building was terrified. “Is she serious?”

"No, she is just trying to scare us. Isn't she afraid that something will happen to the Duke of Wei? The Duke of Wei is in our hands, so we are not afraid..."

Before he could finish his words, “Boom.”

With a loud explosion, half of Tingxue Tower was blown down, killing most of the people inside. The scene was a bloody mess with screams everywhere.

It was not until this point that everyone finally realized that they had no qualifications to negotiate with Ning Zhiwei.

No matter how powerful a noble family is, it is vulnerable in front of the army.

If she dares to come, she must have something to rely on.

Yuan Dazhong smiled bitterly, realizing that he was the fool.

Ning Zhiwei's cold voice came from outside, "I'll give you another cup of tea to figure out how to talk to me."

Yuan Dazhong's face turned pale. This was a threat. If she didn't listen to her, she would continue to explode. "Who said she was easy to control? Who?"

The room was silent, completely still, and shrouded in despair.

They mobilized such a large force and invited so many experts, but Ning Zhiwei resolved the situation with just two moves.

No, they were defeated miserably.

Ning Zhiwei sat in the carriage, looking at the ruins, a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes. They thought they could control her with just these people?

Should I laugh at these people's naivety, or laugh at them for knowing nothing about her?

At this moment, a figure walked out of the building, "Your Majesty, I came out to talk."

It was Yuan Dazhong. He was covered in blood and was supported by the guards.

He pointed at the bodies being carried out horizontally, "These are the people who carried out the plan. They are all dead."

"I was the one who came up with the idea, but I can't die for now."

Ning Zhiwei raised her eyebrows. He was very brave.

"Your Majesty, if you want to know the truth, please sit with me on the painted boat."

There are several painted boats parked by the lake, which is very elegant.

However, Ning Zhiwei sat still, and said in a very indifferent tone, "Now, I just want to see the Duke of Wei. If he loses even a hair, you will be dead."

Yuan Dazhong was young, but quite calm. "Your Majesty, we have no intention of harming the Duke of Wei. We only ask that you show mercy and stop killing our family."

Ning Zhiwei's mind raced, "You are from the Yuan family, which is considered a second-rate family. Why do you have to take the lead?"

Yuan Dazhong sighed softly, as if he had an unspeakable addiction. "I have no choice. Please allow me to die as atonement for my sins, Your Majesty."

Ning Zhiwei was not very interested in a puppet and scapegoat who was pushed to the front.

"Call out the people behind you, and hurry up. I have issued an imperial decree. If you don't see Duke Wei return safely before midnight today, all the noble families will be killed tonight."

Yuan Dazhong's face changed. "Why do you have to pick on the aristocratic families? Throughout history, emperors have changed, but aristocratic families have remained the same."

"The noble family is not your enemy, but your most loyal subject. I promise that we will fight wherever you point us. If you need food and silver, we will provide it at any time."

"Really?" Ning Zhiwei didn't believe a word of it. She was just waiting for an opportunity.

The noble families were not seeking negotiations, they had other plans, but she was not afraid at all.

Yuan Dazhong was extremely humble. "Yes, this is the common idea of ​​all the noble families. We are willing to serve you as our master and be your servants for generations to come."

"Your promise as a young man is useless."

Yuan Dazhong looked at the girl who was younger than him. Young people? "I'll let them come over right away, but please promise not to hurt them."

Ning Zhiwei raised an eyebrow, "Don't you have hostages in your hands? Haven't you been planning for this day for a long time?"

"Besides, I don't believe your promise. Do you dare to believe my promise?"

"Being black-hearted, capricious, and ruthless are the necessary qualities for a king."
