After my soul traveled to ancient times, I don't want to be cannon fodder

"Hello, Lord Li! Lord Li, you have been working hard over the years, building a plank road in the open while secretly crossing Chencang."

Zhong Ning's voice was like a sharp sword, piercing directly into Li Jun's heart.

Just now he was not sure that the person in front of him was the one who sneaked into his study at night to search, but now he was sure, and his whole demeanor changed drastically.

"You've revealed your true colors so quickly, Miss Ning. You're here in my office, yet you're going against me. Do you really think I can't do anything to you?"

Li Jun clapped his hands, and a group of guards instantly rushed in from outside the main courtyard gate, holding knives to protect Li Jun. More than 20 archers appeared on the top of the wall, aiming directly at Zhong Ning.

Li Huai'en was shocked. "Dad, what are you doing? She's Miss Ning, my son's future wife. This is her first visit. How could you do this?"

Wang was also startled and jumped up from her seat in an instant. Even if she was slow-witted, she realized that things might not be as simple as she thought.

Upon closer inspection, it seemed that Miss Ning had never shown any respect to her from beginning to end, and all her soft attacks were directly turned back at her.

Even if her master suddenly got angry, she would sit there calmly with no change in expression.

"The future wife you've chosen?" Li Jun's eyes were bloodshot. He turned to Li Huai'en with a sullen face and roared, "Do you know her true identity? Do you know what she has done?"

"Of course I know. Her name is Ning Rong. She is the legitimate daughter of the Lin'an Ning family's side branch. She is the one I fell in love with at first sight!" Li Huai'en was startled for a moment by his father's sudden roar, then reacted and retorted.

His father always suppressed him and said he was not ambitious enough.

He finally met someone he truly loved, and wanted to use this to take credit to his father, but he didn't expect that he would treat Miss Ning like this.

As for the last sentence, Li Huai'en subconsciously ignored it.

Miss Ning is so weak, how could she pose a danger to her father?

His father must be overthinking it. He didn't want to see him marry a lady from a prominent family, and he was even less willing to admit that his son would have good luck one day.

Seeing his son defending him like this, Li Jun suddenly felt a mouthful of blood rushing up. He used all his strength to swallow it back.

Li Jun was about to teach this rebellious son a lesson when he suddenly came to his senses, grabbed Li Huai'en's collar, and shouted, "What did you say her name was?"

"Ning, Ning Rong!" Li Huai'en looked at his father who suddenly attacked, and his momentum weakened, and he could only reply cautiously.

Li Jun's face turned pale, and he kept murmuring, "Ning Rong, Ning Rong..." This name kept flashing through his mind, and suddenly stopped at a certain point.

Ning Rong, Rong Ning, Murong Ning?

Li Jun Xiaoran's eyes widened, and she pointed in the direction of Zhong Ning, trembling continuously, with a hint of panic in her voice: "You are, Princess Zhaohua Murong Ning..."

Zhong Ning put down the tea bowl, slammed it heavily on the table, and looked over expressionlessly. Li Jun's legs suddenly went weak and he almost fell to the ground.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Li Huai'en quickly propped up his old man, turned his head to look at Zhong Ning, and then looked at Li Jun, "What Murong Ning? She is Miss Ning!"

Li Jun finally managed to stand steady, supported by his son's large hand. However, his gaze remained fixed on Zhong Ning's direction, his voice trembling. "Son, son, do you know about the recent rumors about Fangyuan?"

"I know," Li Huai'en replied, "Rumor has it that Prince An allowed the Crown Prince to abduct decent women into Fangyuan, using them to bribe court officials and form a clique for personal gain. This was a serious offense, and he was impeached and imprisoned by Princess Zhaohua!"

"The person before me is none other than Princess Zhaohua Murong Ning!" Li Jun's eyes widened as he shouted, "She followed you back to the palace, investigating openly and secretly, and the spearhead is pointed directly at my father..."

When Li Huai'en heard this, his eyes were filled with disbelief. "How, how is this possible? Miss Ning is Princess Zhaohua..."

Li Huai'en looked at Zhong Ning with hesitation in his eyes, as if waiting for her to give him an explanation. Zhong Ning's expression did not change. He glanced at the many guards gathered in the hall and said lightly, "Since you know that I am visiting, Lord Li, your hospitality is really offensive!"

Li Jun closed his eyes, knowing that since Princess Zhaohua had obtained the evidence, she would definitely not let her go.

Since this is the case, we might as well go all out.

Li Jun frowned tightly, his fingers rubbing unconsciously. When he lowered his head to think, he inadvertently glanced at the defense deployment in his yard.

Very good, with such sharp arrows flying at us, no matter how skilled Princess Zhaohua is in martial arts, she will be captured.

After confirming his current situation, Li Jun sneered and looked at Zhong Ning, saying in a deep voice, "Your Highness has come to visit me. I apologize for not welcoming you in person, but I admire you for taking the risk and entering the tiger's den alone..."

Li Jun took his son and took a step back. Several guards stepped forward with their sword handles in hand and protected him in a protective circle.

"Your Highness, fighting one against many is not a good strategy. As long as Your Highness can hand over the letter, I will consider leaving you with an intact body!"

Just as Xu Yin fell asleep, she heard chaotic footsteps outside the courtyard and the housekeeper's exclamation, "Who are you? Do you know where this place is? You dare to trespass into the official's backyard? Are you trying to kill yourself?"

Li Jun's heart skipped a beat. He was about to send someone to investigate, but he saw a group of soldiers in heavy armor surrounding the entire main courtyard. Two rows of armored soldiers rushed in directly and started a melee with the guards of Li's mansion.

These, these are the soldiers from Xicang Camp!

Han Lin actually brought his troops to support him. Li Jun felt dizzy at this moment. Then he reacted and shouted hoarsely: "General Han, are you going to meddle in other people's business too?"

No one responded.

There was only the sound of cold weapons clashing and screams everywhere in the yard.

Amateurs are always vulnerable when facing professionals.

In less than a quarter of an hour, all the guards of the Li Mansion were captured by the soldiers of the Xicang Camp. Li Jun and his son, as well as Wang and others, were forced to kneel on the ground by the soldiers, looking extremely miserable!

From beginning to end, Zhong Ning sat on the platform without any reaction.

The soldiers stood on both sides, and all the captured guards and Li family members knelt on both sides to welcome them. Han Lin, wearing heavy armor and a big sword on his waist, strode in.

Square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes.

He looked righteous, but there was a wicked smile on the corner of his lips.

His eyes were sharp, with a hint of arrogance.

When he reached the front, he bowed and said, "Your humble servant, the commander of the Western Warehouse, Han Lin, greets Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

A group of soldiers knelt on one knee, holding long spears in hand, and shouted in unison like thunder: "Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

Zhong Ning stood up, took a few steps, and raised his hand slightly: "Commendations, please stand up!"
