Zhang Hu lay on the ground holding the hammer in disbelief. It took him a long time to realize that he had lost. He lost without even making a single move.

Everyone was stunned.

Well, has the competition started?

It seems to have begun.

Oh, no, it's over.

Everyone was silent. This was not what they had imagined. Wasn't a martial arts competition supposed to be a duel on the field, with punches coming in and out, each one hitting the flesh?

Why is this Princess Zhaohua so special?

General Zhang was blown away before he even got close to her.

The other two lieutenants exchanged a glance and simultaneously bowed to Zhong Ning. Zhong Ning nodded slightly and said in a clear voice, "Let's go together!"

The two men suddenly surged like a hurricane, one used the White Crane to soar into the sky, and the other used the White Rainbow to pierce the sun. The sword wind was like a shadow, dazzling.

However, such a trick was instantly shattered when it met Zhong Ning. On the training ground, the little princess just flicked her cloak lightly, spun twice in the air, and kicked the two men out of the training ground.

Everyone present:........

"Your moves are too fancy. I suggest you simplify them and get straight to the point!" Zhong Ning said calmly. The two lieutenants immediately stood up from the ground, bowed, and said they would learn from you!

Seeing this, Xi Lin was extremely excited. He rushed to the training ground regardless of Qin Mo's attempts to stop him. He bowed to Zhong Ning and said, "Your Highness, please teach me!"

Zhong Ning hooked his finger, and Xi Lin rushed over with a sword in hand. His momentum was mixed with the strong wind and internal force, and he looked very powerful!

Zhong Ning slightly tilted his head, pinched the sword tip with two fingers, and flicked it slightly, using the force of the sword to knock the man out. Xi Lin flew back, and the sword wind came again. Zhong Ning leaned back slightly, letting the sword wind pass over him.

Then he spun around and slapped Xi Lin on the right side of his shoulder. Xi Lin felt pain immediately. Zhong Ning followed up with a high kick and kicked him out directly.

Xi Lin was not discouraged. He continued to fight, flipped twice in the air and bounced directly from the ground, then rushed forward again.

Zhong Ning was now very interested and gave him some careful instruction.

As he became more and more addicted to fighting, he kicked the man out of the training ground with two bangs.

KO!

But at least it took ten moves!

Xi Lin covered his butt and climbed up from the ground. He smiled excitedly at Zhong Ning and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Your Highness. Your martial arts skills are so great that I cannot even compare to you!"

"You're welcome!" Zhong Ning said solemnly, "Is the injury serious? Do you need to summon the imperial physician?"

"It's not serious. Your Highness didn't hit me hard at all. This is just a minor injury. There's no need for an imperial physician. It can be healed with a plaster!" Xi Lin replied immediately.

"Well, if there is anything, please report to me in time!"

"Yes, I obey your order!" Xi Lin smiled happily, leaving Qin Mo and Cen Jing beside him speechless.

This guy, did he enjoy beating him?

However, Princess Zhaohua was truly a martial arts expert, and no one could last more than ten moves against her.

Cen Jing glanced at Qin Mo silently, wondering how many moves this commander of the imperial guards could withstand from Her Royal Highness the Princess?

Qin Mo curled his lips. His martial arts skills were now at least at the seventh level. Although not as good as Princess Zhaohua's, it was not a problem for him to master a hundred moves!

Although he wanted to challenge a top master like Princess Zhaohua, he didn't want to embarrass himself in front of his soldiers.

While he was thinking, Zhong Ning's carriage had already left the military camp.

Qin Mo suddenly realized something, then stood there and sighed silently.

Zhong Ning sat in the carriage, thinking carefully about what happened today.

She has to rush around in the next two days and also go to the military camp outside the city, one to help with the assessment, and the other to help take charge.

The three camps outside the city are much more troublesome than the imperial guards inside the city.

Since she was already in the city, she would start with the imperial guards.

But Lu Xingzhou started directly from the Cheetah Camp outside the city.

For two consecutive days, she and Lu Xingzhou divided the work and cooperated, and finally completed the screening of the first batch of about two thousand people.

These people will be brought into the Floating Cloud Mountains in batches, where craftsmen sent by the Ministry of Works have built a firearms workshop and all the training grounds related to the military camp.

Emperor Yong sent heavy troops to guard the place, and everyone entering and leaving had to pass through three thresholds and sign a confidentiality agreement.

There are many traps inside from the outside, and outsiders cannot easily break in.

In the next three months, Dayong’s first firearms battalion will be born here!

Of course, this is a story.

.......

Inside the princess's mansion.

"Your Highness, Hua Rong is back." Su Xin stepped forward to report, and Zhong Ning suddenly stood up. This Hua Rong... seemed to have been put in charge of the Dark Chamber before.

Today, the Dark Chamber has more than 60 people, all of whom are experts. Some are good at gathering intelligence, some are good at management, some are good at making plans, and some are good at rescue.

For several months, the staff of the Dark Chamber traveled around the cities near Kyoto and took on at least seventeen missing persons missions.

More than forty children have been rescued from human traffickers.

No fewer than dozens of human traffickers were executed, and no fewer than three organizations that made a living from human trafficking were dismantled.

Hua Rong has made an indelible contribution to such remarkable achievements.

Now he suddenly comes back, could it be that he encountered some difficulties?

"Let him in quickly!"

"Yes!"

Soon, a young man in brocade clothes strode over. When he was two meters away from Zhong Ning, he knelt on one knee and saluted with his fists clasped together: "Your Highness, I greet Her Royal Highness!"

This time, he was convinced.

Originally he was just a secret guard, controlled by the secret guard camp, protecting the princess and occasionally killing people.

But now, he is the leader of the Dark Chamber. Although he is still involved in killing, the people he kills are corrupt officials and villains who harm the people.

He would not hesitate to kill a thousand or ten thousand such people.

His life has faith and his life has sunlight.

And all this is thanks to Princess Zhaohua!

"Get up!" Zhong Ning raised his hand slightly and then gestured to Su Xin to pour tea. "You've been working hard lately. Sit down and have a cup of tea!"

"Thank you, Your Highness. I dare not do that!" Hua Rong became even more respectful.

"It's just a cup of tea, what's there to be afraid of? Are you worried that I might poison the tea?"

Hua Rong was startled and immediately knelt down again, bowing her head and saying, "I have absolutely no such intention!"

"Alright, get up quickly. I was just joking with you!" Zhong Ning put away his chuckle and said solemnly, "Is there something you need to come back for today?"

"Your Highness, I have an important matter..." Hua Rong stood up and said seriously, "The Dark Pavilion recently received a business deal. A merchant family in Xiyan City has lost a son and a daughter. The boy and girl are twins, a boy and a girl, who look similar. They are only thirteen years old. Their names are Fu Ziheng and Fu Ziyu."

"There's a disaster in Xiyan City right now, and the imperial court has sent people to regulate grain prices and provide relief to the victims. These two kids also wanted to contribute to the relief efforts, so they secretly ran away from home, intending to help out at their family's porridge stall."

“In the end, he was intercepted on the way…”
