"This should also be Furou's work." Lan Ning said with a smile.

If we were to say who wants to kill her the most, it would only be Fu Rou. However, since they can find such a high-priced assassin, it seems that they have sufficient funds.

If you think about it carefully, that group of ancient beasts have been lurking in various places for many years, so it is inevitable that they have some industries.

I heard from Xuan Mo and the others that the Mamba tribe's death warriors are not cheap, one gold ingot per person. If they encounter a mission where the fight ends in death, the price will go up.

How much would it cost to assassinate a princess? It's not just gold and silver.

The Mamba snake tribe is not welcome in the world of all beasts. It should be said that all involvement is not welcome because they are all poisonous. The Black Python tribe is naturally high in status because they are ancient beasts, and the Mamba tribe...

It has been a well-known killer organization for a long time.

Although this business makes money, it is also extremely risky. Most importantly, it is not open to the public, so no one wants to choose a Mamba man as a husband.

In addition, Empress Wan Jing was on guard, so their tribe was doomed to be unable to turn things around.

If you want to grow bigger and don't want to leave Wanjing, you can only change the owner of this country.

Furou's rebel forces were naturally the best choice. They didn't need to kill the empress. They were just a princess who went out to tour on behalf of the empress.

However, Lan Ning felt that the matter was not that simple. Furou's people had most likely instigated the entire Mamba tribe to rebel. The target this time was not only her, but perhaps also Xuan Mo and the others.

From the capital, the Hongmen Banquet...

-

From the capital.

"Princess Lan Ning has arrived? And she has brought troops with her?" The wife of the concubine in Congdu only found out what happened last night after she woke up early in the morning. After reading the letter and the news at the city gate, she was shocked.

The wife of Congdu slapped the table, pointing at the group of people kneeling in front of her, and said with great regret! When she woke up, Congdu was in turmoil!

"I said at the time that all the Mamba snakes in the city should be driven out! Now, we have accepted the commission from the rebels to assassinate Princess Lan Ning, the future empress of Wanjing Kingdom!" The wife of Congdu was full of regret. She should not have listened to this group of people and left the Mamba snakes here.

Those people who were kneeling on the ground and trembling were also scared to death by this news!

Everyone in Wanjing knows that Princess Lan Ning is the designated empress. She has a face exactly like Lord Beast God. She is now highly respected by the people of Wanjing, and the tribes behind her are all powerful in Wanjing.

Touch Lan Ning?

That bunch of rebels must be crazy! They have to drag them into the capital!

"Now, no matter who goes, go to Heigou immediately! Drive away all those assassins!" The wife from the capital city was so angry that her face turned red, "Otherwise, we will be the ones to die!"

She had worked hard to develop to where she is now from the capital, and she must not let that black sheep ruin it.

At least in front of Lan Ning, they had to act respectful so as not to be implicated by the group of assassins.

Just as she drove away that group of useless guys, she heard news from the city gate that Wan Jingguo's carriage had arrived for an inspection.

"What?!" The wife of Congdu was shocked. The nearest post station to Congdu City was fifty miles away! How could they arrive so quickly? !

She stood up in a hurry, looking at the blue sky outside the window at a loss, "What should I do? Go quickly, let them drive the people away quickly! Don't let Princess Lan Ning find out!"

She doesn't want to be labeled a traitor at all!

The eunuch hurried out, but before he could leave the house he was stabbed in the throat by a sword.

The wife from the capital: “????”

"It's too late to chase us away. My wife, why don't you join us and rebel!"

.......

After entering the capital city, Lan Ning quietly observed the buildings in the city, which were really different from Wanjing City.

Lan Ning took a quick look and was first shocked by the unique architecture here, and then frightened by some malicious looks.

She found that there were many strange-looking people in the city, and they did not know how to hide their eyes at all. They all looked ferocious. If they were not at the city gate, they would probably be afraid of being discovered by the wolf soldiers who followed them.

She thought the assassins would cover up their actions, but how come they followed her carriage right after entering the city? With such a strange situation, it was not difficult to guess that something had happened in the city.

Lan Ning looked thoughtfully at the direction where those people left.

"Could it be that the wife from Congdu has already rebelled?" Liang Chen also noticed the abnormality around him. After following them for a long time, Liang Chen could roughly guess some things. He didn't expect that he had chosen such an extraordinary wife. The probability of her being assassinated was much higher than those arrogant and domineering wives of his, Lou Yue.

If a city is in such chaos, either the city lord doesn't care, or the city lord doesn't want to care at all.

"Or maybe he was held hostage," Lan Ning continued.

With so many assassins in the capital, it is possible that they had received the news and made a plan last night. However, we have to go to the City Lord's Mansion to find out the specific information.

Liang Chen smiled and said, "They are just a group of assassins."

It is said that the Mamba snake tribe's assassins are very powerful, and it was no different yesterday. They all took Jing Ye's anti-incense medicine, but he asked Lan Ning to hide himself when the fight started.

He also wanted to let Lan Ning see his strength!

"But you have to stay by Xuan Mo's side and never leave his side." Liang Chen held her hand. Judging from the situation outside, a big battle was inevitable.

Jing Ye is concerned about Lan Ning's safety, so he should be here in a moment.

"I know, you are all by my side, I won't be in danger." Lan Ning smiled. Although these words were somewhat comforting, they did make Liang Chen feel a lot better. At this time, he threw away the depression that Lan Ning didn't hug him in the morning.

[Liang Chen's favorability +5, total favorability: 65. ]

Xuan Mo sat aside. He looked at Liang Chen thoughtfully. This guy was about the same age as them, but his childish temper was the same as Ling Yan's.

Stingy and jealous.

After Lan Ning finished speaking, she carefully lifted the car curtain and swept her beautiful eyes over the strange figures in the crowd. She saw a very familiar figure passing by.

Dressed in black, he stood in an inconspicuous corner of the crowd, silently watching her carriage.

"Heng Yue?"

Before coming here, Lan Ning thought that he might meet an old acquaintance, but he didn't expect it was him. Since he appeared here, Furou was probably here too.

Hearing this familiar name, the gentle expression on Xuan Mo's face paused for a rare moment. He lifted the curtain and looked in the direction where Lan Ning was looking. As expected, he saw Heng Yue, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

"I haven't seen them for a long time. It seems that they are living a good life." Xuan Mo smiled meaningfully. He recognized the material of Heng Yue's clothes. It was similar to the material he wore when he was an official in Wanjing City. Each piece cost about one hundred taels of silver.

Lan Ning also echoed the words, "The Ancient Beast Tribe has been lurking for so many years, they should have their own industry. Judging from the fact that they hired assassins to carry out the assassination, they should not be short of money."
