In Prince Zhan's palace, Mingzhu and Yaoguang were called to Prince Zhan's bedroom to guard Su Jixue.

Outside the bedroom, security is tight.

Yaoguang was still recovering from her injuries, but she also sensed that something was amiss tonight: "Ms. Mingzhu, no matter what happens, you must protect the young lady."

Yaoguang even stuffed a dagger into Mingzhu's hand.

There was also a cruel look in his eyes.

"Sister Yaoguang, you don't have to call me Miss, just call me Mingzhu." Yaoguang's address made Mingzhu feel a little uncomfortable.

In fact, no matter in Prince Zhan's Mansion or in the Shen family, who really treats her as a real lady?

"Your status is different now, so of course you should be addressed differently. You are the eldest lady's adopted sister, so you should be called Miss." Yaoguang said seriously, "Yaoguang is also happy for Miss Mingzhu."

The two people who were desperate that night started a new life with the eldest lady who was lying quietly.

"Sister Yaoguang." Mingzhu held Yaoguang's hand tightly. In this world, only Yaoguang could empathize with her. But the unbearable things they had experienced were in the past, and they would all be fine in the future.

"Miss Mingzhu, just shout it out tonight. It will be inappropriate to do so in the future." Yaoguang patted Mingzhu's hand in return, looking relieved.

"I hope everything is fine tonight, otherwise I'm really afraid I won't be able to protect the young lady." Mingzhu looked at Su Jixue lying motionless on the bed.

They were all protected by Su Jixue, but tonight General Mo said that he would hand Miss Su over to them, and Mingzhu always felt a little uneasy.

"Although Yaoguang is injured now, whoever wants to hurt the young lady tonight will have to step over Yaoguang's body!" Yaoguang picked up another dagger under the pillow, her tense little face looking extremely serious.

"Mingzhu will also do her best to protect her sister!" Gui Mingzhu held the dagger and looked at the bedroom door with a wary look.

"But if Lian Zhan's palace is breached, then we will just have to accompany the young lady on the journey." Yaoguang looked at Su Jixue, her expression becoming gentle: "Yaoguang has no regrets about meeting the young lady!"

After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Gui Mingzhu and began to thank her: "I haven't thanked Miss Mingzhu for saving my life yet. I will definitely repay her when I have the chance!"

"Sister Yaoguang, why do you have to be so polite to me? If it wasn't for Sister Yaoguang's request the night before, the eldest lady might not have taken Mingzhu away." Mingzhu waved her hands quickly. They were both protected by the eldest lady.

"Then Miss Mingzhu, could you tell Yaoguang how the eldest lady saved Yaoguang from the second lady?" Yaoguang's face was pretty and tough under the candlelight. She took the initiative to mention what happened today. If the eldest lady had not thought it through at that time, her life would have been lost there.

So, she wanted to know everything and how the eldest lady planned and acted.

"I have to say, my sister is really amazing." Mingzhu still felt a lingering fear when she recalled Yaoguang being nearly beaten to death in the side courtyard. "When my sister heard about your situation, she gave me the War King Order and asked me to go to the War King's Mansion to find someone."

"War King's Order?" Yaoguang was shocked. This was something she hadn't expected. "Could it be the War King's Order that commands the War King's Cavalry?"

"Yes, sister was so bold back then. She directly gave me the War King's Order. That's the War King's Order, a token that is said to be able to command thousands of troops!" Mingzhu looked at Yaoguang a little embarrassedly: "At that time, I even tried to persuade Miss not to use such an important thing."

"But the eldest lady said that what is useful is important, and what is not useful is just a piece of scrap metal."

Mingzhu's eyes were bright and her eyes lit up when she mentioned this.

"Also, the young lady told Mingzhu that saving a person is easy, but saving their heart is hard." Mingzhu said, holding Yaoguang's hand again. "The young lady was really amazing back then. She had already figured out how to discredit you, and she even told me in detail how to get the Zhan Palace to cooperate."

"Later, the young lady went to rescue them."

When this was mentioned, Mingzhu unconsciously called Su Jixue "Miss." In fact, it was when Miss sincerely went to save Yaoguang that Mingzhu made up her mind to follow Miss.

"So now, where is the War King's Order?" Yaoguang asked with red eyes.

The soy sauce shop on Nanchang Street.

This is where Zong Han will stay tonight. Tomorrow morning he will be ready to leave the city with the large soy sauce vats from the soy sauce shop.

But the War King's men have already followed here.

Su Jixue stood on the wall of the soy sauce shop, watching the War King coming on the moon. With a stern look on his face, he ordered his men to surround the place silently.

This is the longest-running base of Liudao Pavilion. Uncle Zhang from the soy sauce shop is well-known on this street and even has his own subordinates.

Tonight will be ruined because of Zong Han.

Only Zong Han dared to take action against the King of War on his own initiative before Zong Kui's order was passed on to Dong Chu, because Zong Kui always treated the children of the Zong family differently.

Su Jixue watched helplessly as the War King's secret guards occupied the commanding heights on the wall tiles and surrounded the place tightly.

Watching the War King finally give the order, he began to encircle the soy sauce shop.

This is destined to be a bloody night.

Su Jixue floated in the air and looked at everything below her feet. She watched the people from the soy sauce shop put up a desperate resistance and then were killed on the spot.

He also saw Zong Han trying to escape but eventually falling into the hands of the War King.

Zong Han's jaw was directly removed and a rag was stuffed into it, for fear that he would bite the poison and commit suicide.

This assassination ultimately ended with the War King winning a great victory.

At this moment, Su Mo hurried over with the troops from the Five Cities Army, but he only had time to help the War King clean up the battlefield.

Except for Su Mo, all the guards in the capital seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep tonight.

"Your Highness, I am late. I hope Your Highness will forgive me!" Su Mo went to King Zhan and pleaded guilty. Although he said he was pleading guilty, he was actually surrendering.

It was not his job to patrol the Five Cities Army tonight, but he brought along his close brothers just to clearly stand on the side of the War King at this moment.

This is his way out, and also his way to bring down the Su family in the future.

"Lord Su, are you willing to accompany me into the palace as a witness?"

Under the night sky, the War King had already removed the disguise on his face. His handsome face was stained with blood, making him look even more cruel and enchanting.

He looked down at Su Mo coldly, waiting for his answer.

"I couldn't ask for more!" Su Mo bowed. If the incident at the Su family was the first time he and the War King had come into contact, then after tonight, he would follow the War King's lead.

At this time, the sound of horse hooves rang out, and Mo Chuyi came galloping over with the cavalry battalion of Prince Zhan's Mansion.

The sound of heavy cavalry broke the silence of the night.

A solemn and murderous atmosphere enveloped the capital.

The War King sat back in his wheelchair, and with his blood-red lips he uttered words that made the entire court of Dongchu feel uneasy tonight: "Let's go, take those corpses and enter the palace!"

The secret guards of Prince Zhan's mansion disappeared into the night with tonight's survivors.

Mo Chuyi and the Cavalry Battalion escorted the War King's carriage, as well as carts full of the bodies of the killers, towards the palace.

Knocked on the gate of the imprisoned palace.
