Zong Zheng Xingyao was shaken so much that he almost vomited on the horse's back.

Leng Dian noticed something was wrong with her, and after much hesitation, he asked in a low voice, "Princess, would you like me to stop and rest for a while?"

Zong Zheng Xingyao suppressed his discomfort and shook his head.

"Don't delay your work for me alone. It's more important to get on with your journey."

Since leaving the palace, she rarely calls herself "this palace" anymore.

Because she understood that no one here would really treat her like a princess.

She must be strong and independent so as not to be annoying.

I didn’t expect that such a delicate princess would not be so pretentious.

This made Leng Dian look at her with a new respect.

"Your Highness, please be patient for a moment."

"I will try to ride more steadily."

As he spoke, Leng Dian pulled the reins tighter and brought Zong Zheng Xingyao closer to his arms.

Zong Zheng Xingyao felt a firm chest behind him, and his face had already turned red.

Is this person really just an ordinary guard?

No, it's not just him.

All the guards in the mountain stronghold tonight are definitely not just ordinary servants and guards in ordinary families!

In fact, it is possible that each of them is more skilled than the guards in the palace.

After these two days, Zong Zheng Xingyao also saw clearly.

This Nangong Qingluo is definitely not just an ordinary merchant woman.

Her actions and strategies were so interconnected that Zong Zheng Xingyao was overwhelmed and admired her very much.

Before Zong Zheng Xingyao could wrap her mind around some things, she immediately thought of the next thing.

Until now, Zong Zheng Xingyao has not figured out all of Li Qingluo's plans.

But she just went along and got to this point.

Who exactly is this Nangong Qingluo?

This question has popped up in Zong Zheng Xingyao's mind several times.

When she saw that her father and brother had been framed like this, Zong Zheng Xingyao couldn't describe the feeling in her heart.

She turned her head and looked aside.

On the left side of Zong Zheng Xingyao was Jin Huan, who was suppressing her murderous intent and personally carrying Zong Zheng Wuxie, who had one hand cut off.

Zong Zheng Wuxie's face was pale and he had lost consciousness. His hands were hanging on the horse's belly, one of which was tightly wrapped in gauze and soaked in blood.

Zong Zheng Xingyao glanced at the miserable state of his fourth brother and turned his head away with reluctance.

In front of him was Nangong Qingluo, dressed in men's clothes and galloping on his horse with a heroic look.

Behind her were an old nanny and a maid.

"Who are you?"

Zong Zheng Xingyao couldn't help but ask Leng Dian behind him.

Leng Dian: "Your Highness, you don't need to know."

Zong Zheng Xingyao sneered.

"I hope I won't regret cooperating with you."

"If you harm the country and people of Great Chu... I will be a sinner for all eternity."

Leng Dian: "Princess, you worry too much."

"The Chu state has long been rotten to the core. Why are you taking the blame?"

“A thousand-mile dam can be breached by an ant hole, but it doesn’t happen overnight.”

Zong Zheng Xingyao turned his head in surprise and looked at the person behind him.

How could he say such a thing?

He's just a guard, yet he has such vision and state of mind!

This made Zong Zheng Xingyao's heart beat uncontrollably.

However, things did not go as smoothly as Li Qingluo had imagined.

The King of Qin soon discovered that a small number of troops had turned away and split up along the way.

So, a team of 100 people was sent to pursue them.

The killers were the first to discover the people behind them.

"Girls, you go first!"

"The subordinates will stay behind to cover our retreat."

Li Qingluo stopped his horse and turned it around.

"Live and die together, advance and retreat together!"

"Everyone, quick victory!"

If twenty people were left to fight against the Qin King's team of one hundred people, the killers would still have a chance of winning.

But there will be sacrifice and bloodshed.

Li Qing has killed twenty-seven people, and she will never let this number decrease by even one.

The killers looked at each other, each of them with moved expressions.

They have been trained to be tools of killing since childhood.

It can be a knife or a sword.

It can also be a sharp blade and shield that can be sacrificed at any time.

But it is definitely not a human.

However, since following the girl, they began to become flesh and blood, and began to be cherished and cared for.

They felt like they were still alive.

Even now there are brothers who can talk about marriage.

The girl even asked Qin Ling to develop an ointment to erase the tattoos on their faces.

Now, the girl has to live and die with them.

How could having such a master not be the light of their originally dark, lifeless and dead life?

Everyone drew their swords and knives, taking out their most skilled weapons: "We swear to die with the young lady, to live and die together, to advance and retreat together!"

Li Qingluo took the bow and arrow thrown by Nanny Zheng and put it on his back.

She then drew out the Biluo Sword and held it in her hand, her eyes firm and resolute: "Remember, I don't want you to die. No one can be left behind today."

Her eyes weren't just focused on the word "kill."

He also looked at the guards of Prince Su's Mansion.

Finally, it fell on Zong Zheng Xingyao, and she nodded heavily.

Seeing Li Qingluo like this, Zong Zheng Xingyao was shocked and his heart was shaking like an earthquake.

It turns out that there are women in this world who can live like this.

So unrestrained and carefree, so domineering and steady, so... women are as good as men.

She can lead a group of men and make them work for her wholeheartedly.

Sincerity can be exchanged for loyalty and unity.

Zong Zheng Xingyao turned his head and looked around.

Looking at the determination on the faces of these guards, something in my heart seemed to be deeply touched.

It turns out that women in the world do not have to be trapped in the inner palace, do not have to wear heavy veils, and do not have to be just a shadow behind a man.

They can also be their true selves.

Leng Dian wanted to protect the princess, so he and Jinhuan set off first.

Li Qingluo led all the remaining people and fought a desperate battle with King Qin's troops.

Although some people were injured, fortunately, Li Qingluo stayed with everyone, so everyone relied on their excellent skills and skilled team combat to win a great victory and kill all of King Qin's men.

Li Qingluo looked towards the dark rear, and there was no more movement.

So he quickly gave the order: "Everyone, rest for a while, and then continue on your journey—"

Everyone's confidence increased: "Yes, girl!"

Soon, Li Qingluo and his companions caught up with Leng Dian and his companions who were waiting in a safe place ahead.

Seeing that they all caught up, Zong Zheng Xingyao couldn't help but smile.

"Great, everyone is okay!"

Leng Dian couldn't help but look down at the woman in his arms.

If she knew that they were not from Da Chu, she would probably regret her enthusiasm at this moment, right?

At daybreak, Li Qingluo and his group, after a fierce battle with the Qin King's team, still arrived at the imperial mausoleum first.

A Duo had already arrived a day early.

In front of her was Zong Zheng Wuheng, who was sitting in a wheelchair. When the two of them saw them, Zong Zheng Wuheng naturally did not look happy.

"Li Qingluo, you are so brave!"

"What else is there that you dare not do?"

"How dare you threaten me and ask me to send all the construction troops away. You are now planning to attack the imperial mausoleum, you——"

As he spoke, Zong Zheng Wuheng saw Zong Zheng Xingyao in front of Leng Dian.

There was also Zong Zheng Wuxie, whose hand had been chopped off behind Jinhuanma.

Zong Zheng Wuheng's face turned pale: "Yao'er!"

"And Fourth Brother... Li Qingluo, what exactly are you going to do?"

"You insist on killing all of our Zongzheng clan, don't you?"

"What deep hatred do we have with you that could allow you to be so cruel!"

Li Qingluo jumped off his horse: "Why are you so anxious?"

"Don't you know exactly what I'm going to do?"

As she spoke, her eyes fell on Zongzheng Wuheng's feet.

Zongzheng Wuheng's face twisted uncontrollably.

"You vicious, vicious woman with a heart of a snake and scorpion, one day, I will kill you with my own hands!!"

Li Qingluo: "Sixth Prince, all the bones in my body are not as hard as your words."

After saying that, Li Qingluo walked towards the entrance of the imperial mausoleum.

Zong Zheng Xingyao then dismounted reluctantly.

He was helped down by Leng Dian himself.

Seeing this, Zong Zheng Wuheng's face flushed with anger and he shouted, "Let go of my sister!"

"Otherwise, this prince will chop off your dog paws!!"

Leng Dian glanced at him, then looked at Zong Zheng Xingyao and bowed, "I apologize for any offense. I hope Your Highness the Princess will not mind."

After saying that, he turned around and chased after Li Qingluo.

Zong Zheng Wuheng shouted excitedly, "Yao'er, come here quickly!"

"Come to Sixth Brother."

"Don't get close to these lunatics. They are murderous beasts!"

Zong Zheng Xingyao frowned: "Alright, Sixth Brother!"

"Don't you know who really likes killing people?"

"We, the people of the Zongzheng clan, have no right to call others crazy."

Zong Zheng Wuheng reacted.

"What do you mean?"

"Are you in cahoots with them now?"

Zong Zhengxing shook his head.

"Things are not what Sixth Brother thinks."

However, Zong Zheng Wu Heng was on the verge of collapse: "Do you know who she is?"

"They're not big—"

A Duo pinched Zong Zheng Wuheng's neck from behind.

"That's enough, Sixth Prince."

"You are tired, it's time to rest."

After saying that, she shook her sleeves.

Zong Zheng Wuheng fainted on the spot.

Zong Zheng Xingyao looked at A Duo with fear in his eyes, but A Duo just smiled slightly.

Then he turned around and pushed Zong Zheng Wuheng into the imperial mausoleum.

As I heard, there are indeed three tombs in the imperial mausoleum.

Li Qingluo also saw three sarcophagi.

Lying in the stone coffin above the main seat were the remains of the late queen, which Duan Rongshi had helped the Emperor of Chu to steal.

This surprised and unexpected Li Qingluo.

The Emperor of Chu actually let the late Queen sleep in the main seat.

It seems that in his heart, his mother's status is far higher than his own.

As for the other two remaining sarcophagi, one on the left and one on the right, neither has a higher status.

Obviously, in his heart, his sister's status has always been equal to his.

At this moment, something seemed to touch Li Qingluo's heart.

However, this still cannot conceal the fact that this tyrant is a pervert and a madman.

Less than an hour had passed since they rested when Sha Yi came in: "Girl, they are here."

Li Qingluo turned around and looked at the group behind him with sharp eyes: "Prepare for an ambush!"

"Yes!"
