Your Majesty said that my life is worthless, so why are you crying when I increase my troops?

He Sanniang's face froze when she heard this. She turned to look at Zhao Hongying and quickly shook her head.

"Master Geng, you misunderstood. This girl is not the most beautiful girl in Cuiwei Tower. She is a guest here..."

"Guest?" Before He Sanniang could finish her words, Geng Ruhuai interrupted her impatiently with a wave of his hand.

"I say, you old brothel owner, do you think I'm a fool?"

"I've been to so many brothels, but this is the first time I've heard of a woman coming here to have fun. If you want to trick me, you better find a better excuse!"

"I don't care who this little girl is. Even if she is your biological daughter, I have to let her accompany me today!"

After he finished speaking, Geng Ruhuai stepped forward again, trying to grab Zhao Hongying.

Xia Mingyuan's face turned cold, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Before he could say anything, Zhao Hongying kicked Geng Ruhuai, and he flew backwards like a kite with a broken string and fell heavily to the ground.

"Ouch!" Geng Ruhuai screamed, struggling to stand up from the ground, holding his stomach and looking at Zhao Hongying, "You stinky bitch, you dare to hit me?"

"Do you know who I am?"

Snapped!

Zhao Hongying had a gloomy face. She stepped forward again and slapped him in the face.

Geng Ruhuai was caught off guard and was beaten so hard that he spun around in circles, spitting out blood mixed with a few teeth.

"If you dare to insult me ​​again, I'll skin you alive today!"

There was a cold glint in Zhao Hongying's eyes and her tone was stern.

Xia Mingyuan gasped as he watched from the side. Looking at the tough Zhao Hongying, it was hard for him to imagine how this woman could pretend to be so docile in front of him!

A daughter of a general, a daughter of a general.

Xia Mingyuan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and muttered to himself.

Suddenly, there was a noise outside the door, and more than a dozen guards with swords rushed into Cuiwei Tower.

When Geng Ruhuai saw these people, he immediately felt confident.

"Bitch, how dare you assault the imperial envoy? What are you still standing there for? Catch her now!"

At a command, more than a dozen guards drew their swords and looked at Zhao Hongying.

Seeing these people, Xia Mingyuan raised his head and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Originally, he planned to pretend that he did not notice the imperial envoy entering the city, meet with him in secret, and find out his true intentions.

I didn't expect that Geng Ruhuai, who was horny, came to harass Zhao Hongying, and they ran into each other by chance!

Judging from the situation, there's no way this matter can be resolved peacefully today. If I don't teach this bastard a lesson, I won't be able to get rid of the hatred in my heart!

Zhao Hongying narrowed her eyes, took a few steps back, and looked at the dozen or so guards vigilantly.

After all, Geng Ruhuai was an imperial envoy, and he represented the current emperor when he traveled.

Every one of the guards beside him was the most elite imperial guards of the court, and their strength was at the third rank level, no less powerful than the Qilin Guards beside Xia Mingyuan.

If she were to face the siege of more than a dozen people, I'm afraid that even she, who had just entered the second rank, would not be a match for them!

What's more, Xia Mingyuan is still by his side, and if he is not careful, something could go wrong.

Thinking of this, Zhao Hongying looked at Xia Mingyuan with a serious expression, secretly regretting that she did not let him bring a few more Qilin Guards with him before going out.

He just felt that with a second-grade master like him here, no one in Yangcheng should be able to attack the two of them.

However, Xia Mingyuan's face was calm at this moment, without any fluctuation in his expression.

Zhao Hongying thought Xia Mingyuan was unaware of the other party's strength, so she quickly lowered her voice and said to him, "I can hold these people back for a while. When the fight starts, my husband should retreat first and go back to the palace to get reinforcements to support me."

Xia Mingyuan smiled upon hearing this, with a hint of disdain in his eyes, "Hongying, they are just a dozen small fry, what's there to be afraid of?"

"This is Hanyang. In this small area, no one dares to challenge me."

Xia Mingyuan stood at the door, talking, and then he suddenly realized and opened the system panel.

Without giving it much thought, he directly exchanged four hundred and eighty ordinary soldiers for twenty-five Qilin Guards and five Longxiang Warriors.

These people fell from the sky and appeared on the right side of the door. Due to the lack of visibility, no one in Cuiwei Tower could see them clearly.

Geng Ruhuai laughed out loud with disdain on his face, "Boy, who are you trying to scare by blowing your own trumpet here?"

"You two alone think you can fight against the royal guards?"

"I advise you to get out of here right now and let me take the initiative to give this delicate beauty next to you. Maybe I can let you go."

"No need, I think it's easier to just deal with you."

Xia Mingyuan snorted coldly and waved gently.

The next moment, under the leadership of Longxiong Ruishi, twenty-five Qilin Guards rushed in and surrounded all the imperial guards.

"Geng Ruhuai, right? Let me introduce myself. My name is Xia Mingyuan, and I'm the commander of the guards at the Princess's residence."

"I now suspect someone is impersonating an imperial envoy. I'm sending you to the government office for investigation. I hope you can cooperate!"

After Xia Mingyuan finished speaking, the Qilin Guards all drew their swords, staring at him with eager eyes.

"Are you the commander of the guards of the princess's mansion?" Geng Ruhuai was stunned for a moment. Before he could react, two Qilin guards came forward and arrested him.

"Xia Mingyuan, are you crazy? I'm an imperial envoy from the court, representing the emperor. How dare you arrest me?"

Geng Ruhuai reacted and started cursing, but what awaited him was a ruthless elbow strike from the Qilin Guard.

After a few hits, Geng Ruhuai suddenly saw stars and dared not shout anymore.

Seeing this, Xia Mingyuan couldn't help but sneer, "With your appearance, you dare to pretend to be an imperial envoy?"

"Catch him, take him to the Princess's residence, and interrogate him strictly."

After Xia Mingyuan finished speaking, he took Zhao Hongying's arm and turned to leave.

"stop!"

"Who among you is so bold as to attack my distinguished guest?"

At this moment, Sun Yaozu's voice suddenly came from behind.

He hurried downstairs and came to Geng Ruhuai in two steps.

Looking at Geng Ruhuai, who was bruised and in a miserable state, Sun Yaozu's face suddenly changed.

"Master Geng, what's wrong with you?"

"Who did this..."

Geng Ruhuai covered his face with his hands, his expression distorted. "Who else could it be? It's these two. What are you still standing there for? Arrest these two!"

Sun Yaozu suddenly raised his head and looked at Xia Mingyuan and Zhao Hongying. His expression froze, "It's you, Xia Mingyuan!"

"Xia Mingyuan, you are so brave, you dare to attack the imperial envoy!"

Xia Mingyuan feigned surprise, looking Sun Yaozu up and down. "Master Sun, what a coincidence! You're also enjoying yourself in Cuiwei Tower?"

"Master Sun, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you're already so old, you need to take care of yourself. There's no such thing as a field that's ruined by plowing, but there are cows that are exhausted to death."

Sun Yaozu's mouth twitched, his face livid. "Xia Mingyuan, stop talking nonsense and tell the truth. Why did you beat the imperial envoy for no reason? Are you planning a rebellion?"
