I am a commoner, but I will lead the empress to unify the world

When my sister-in-law heard this, her eyes widened with curiosity.

No, this is a messed up relationship.

It’s too messy, your circle is too messy.

The woman named Que Ling was the woman that Prince Rong's assassin went to report to after the assassination of Shen Changgong failed that rainy night.

That night, the woman came out of Prince Rong's bedroom.

When Que Ling heard this, his eyes were filled with murderous intent. He grabbed Yan Guichao's collar and said,

"Who am I doing all this for? Isn't it so you can win the throne? Don't I whisper in your ear every day? Otherwise, would the task of dealing with Shen Changgong fall on you?

Are you blaming me now? We can just break up, but you won't even give me the title of your first wife!"

Hearing this, Yan Guichao smiled and quickly grabbed Que Ling's hand, comforting him.

"Oh, I was just bickering with you, I didn't really mean it. I didn't give you the title of principal wife before, wasn't it because the empress wanted to choose a husband?

If I am already married, how can I become the husband of the empress?

Let's wait a little longer. After Shen Changgong is overthrown, I will unite with other ministers to put pressure on the empress next year. I think the empress will choose me.

If you still don't choose me, I will definitely marry you off in a formal ceremony and bring you into the house in a grand sedan chair."

"Humph, in your eyes, I'm just a backup option, right? I don't even care. In your eyes, I will never be as good as that empress."

"What are you talking about? I want to marry her to improve my status and that of my family. It's purely for political reasons. I don't like her at all.

You are the only one in my heart."

When my sister-in-law heard this, she rolled her eyes, which was so adorable.

She was not afraid, because Shen Changgong would definitely come to save her.

Moreover, if Yan Guichao could be captured alive, the charge of kidnapping an official's family member alone would be enough evidence to try him.

The carriage stopped in front of a large courtyard. After the door was opened, the carriage and dozens of servants all went in, and then the door was closed.

After the swallow returned to the nest, he said to the servant,

"Take these two assassins to the side room and torture them severely. Interrogate Shen Changgong for evidence of his guilt. As for this woman, let me carry her myself. Your dirty hands are not worthy of touching her!"

Yan Guichao sneered, pulled the rope on his sister-in-law and pulled her down, then he and Que Ling pushed her into the room.

After arriving in the room, he loosened the rope on his sister-in-law and said with a smile,

"Sister-in-law, now that we're here, it's hard for you to escape even if you have wings. Think about it carefully. I don't like to use force. I prefer women to submit to me on their own initiative."

My sister-in-law quickly pulled out the iron hairpin on her head and pointed it at her throat. Her pretty face was full of seriousness and ferocity.

"If you dare to touch me, I will commit suicide and you will get nothing. Shen Changgong will also kill your whole family!"

"Oh my, I was so scared, I was so scared! Hahahaha!"

Yan Guichao snorted coldly and said,

"No one knows this place belongs to me. It's quite remote in the capital. When the Shen family finds out you're missing, they'll report it to Shen Changgong. Shen Changgong will then search the entire city for you. It'll take at least two or three days to find you here.

Do you understand how much time we have to transfer you in these two or three days, and what you will encounter?"

"The most you'll get is my dead body!"

My sister-in-law shouted coldly.

"Hahaha, let's wait and see."

Another quarter of an hour passed, and Yan Guichao was still patient, just like training a hawk, and he stayed with Jiang Xueer.

Jiang Xueer kept raising her arms against her throat, and her arms felt a little sore.

But she didn't dare let it go. She was afraid that once she let it go, the other party would capture her and tie her up, and then they would be able to do whatever they wanted.

Yan Guichao also noticed this and secretly winked at Que Ling.

Que Ling moved over calmly, and was about to launch a sneak attack while his sister-in-law was off guard, when suddenly, a crossbow arrow flew towards her face at high speed outside the open window.

She caught a glimpse of the crossbow arrow out of the corner of her eye, and as an excellent assassin, she instinctively leaned back and barely avoided the fatal arrow.

However, she thought it was over after one arrow, but unexpectedly, several more crossbow arrows flew towards her.

At the same time, a cry of "Who is it?" was heard from outside.

This is the servant outside shouting.

Que Ling immediately fell to the ground, rolling repeatedly to avoid the flying arrow.

She is so fast that others can't dodge her, such as Yan Guichao.

With three whooshing sounds, three crossbow arrows hit Yan Guichao's back.

Yan Guichao was a pampered young master and had never experienced such pain before. He immediately screamed in pain on the ground.

Que Ling pulled him and made him lie on the ground.

Hearing the sound of fighting outside, Que Ling looked out the window and saw a group of mysterious men in black climbing over the wall, waving swords and slaughtering the servants.

At this moment, the door of their house was kicked open, and a figure holding a scimitar came towards Que Ling.

Que Ling immediately drew out the dagger behind him and faced the scimitar.

"Shen Changgong? How did you get here so quickly?!"

Queling exclaimed.

The person who came was Shen Changgong.

Shen Changgong was in the Duwei Mansion at the time. He had just put the civilians in jail and was interrogating the mastermind behind the scenes when Shen Wanguan went there.

Shen Changgong was curious about how he knew that someone had reported him. After Shen Wanguan told him, Shen Changgong felt very suspicious and had a bad premonition.

He immediately mobilized the security forces to deal with what might happen next. A moment later, a shadow guard on horseback came to report the situation, saying that his sister-in-law Jiang Xueer had been captured by Yan Guichao.

Shen Changgong was furious, but he was very calm. When he learned that the shadow guards had gathered and were riding towards this side, he immediately made a decisive decision. He took the shadow guards on horseback and asked Zhang Yide to follow with a team of security forces.

There are not many horses in the security forces, they are all infantry. If they run over slowly, the other party will definitely discover them in advance. Moreover, it will take too long and there are too many variables.

On the way, he met the assembled shadow guards, led by Lu Bing, all of whom came on horseback.

Shen Changgong immediately led them towards the outer city. On the way, they met the person who came to report after following Yan Guichao to find the location.

After getting the exact location, they followed the shadow guard and rode their horses at full speed to the vicinity. Then they left two people to watch the horses while the others dismounted and quietly sneaked towards the house.

There was a shadow guard on the roof of the house opposite the house, who knew the situation inside very clearly. After Shen Changgong had a clear idea of ​​what was going on, he took out his crossbow and launched an attack.

He originally launched a surprise attack, which was very effective, but what surprised her was that the woman inside was also a master!
