Transmigrating into a short-lived cannon fodder, she beat the son of destiny to pieces

During this period, Xiao Hechuan had been secretly gathering troops and waiting for an opportunity to act.

It happened to be the Dragon Boat Festival, and everyone in the palace was busy celebrating the festival.

But behind the busy appearance lies a murderous intention.

In Zhaoyang Palace.

Liuliu and Suining lay leisurely on the bamboo chairs to enjoy the cool air.

While eating the spicy dried fish at hand, Liuliu said, "Ningning, if nothing unexpected happens, our mission should be completed after today."

Sui Ning lowered her eyes, "Maybe."

After the mission is completed, they will leave the small world.

But when Sui Ning thought of Xiao Huai's attitude towards her, she felt a headache.

I'm afraid there will be some trouble when I leave.

Just as I was thinking about it, I saw Xiao Huai walking in from outside with a smile.

He naturally lifted Liuliu from the bamboo chair, put it on the ground, and sat on it.

Liuliu: @￥%&%￥*!!!

If possible, it really wanted to let its paws and Xiao Huai's face have a good intimate time.

"Ningning, would you like to go to the party with me tonight?"

Today is the deciding game, and it is enough that Sui Ning has been hiding until now.

Sui Ning had no objection, "Just arrange it."

Xiao Huai looked at Sui Ning with burning eyes and asked, "Ning Ning, once Xiao Hechuan's matter is resolved, will you...will you be my queen?"

As soon as these words were spoken, a rare blush appeared on Xiao Huai's face.

Sui Ning was slightly stunned.

She didn't expect that Xiao Huai would ask this question at this time.

After spending some time together, Sui Ning naturally understood Xiao Huai's feelings for her.

But from the very beginning, she only regarded Xiao Huai as a human cub.

In addition, she is an outsider and is destined to leave one day, and she will absolutely not be able to respond to Xiao Huai's feelings.

"Xiao Huai, I'm not suitable."

Xiao Huai looked lonely, his heart aching slightly, but he still looked at Sui Ning with a firm expression, "No, in my opinion, no one is more suitable than you."

Sui Ning shook her head: "I am a demon, I will not stay for anyone, and you are the emperor of the human world, destined to have three thousand beauties in your harem. We are destined not to be together."

"Is it just because of this? No matter where you go, I can wait for you. I don't want any harem of beauties, I just want you."

He has never thought of having other women. All he wants in his life, from beginning to end, is her!

Sui Ning said solemnly, "Bamboo is hollow, and it has no heart."

After she completed her cultivation, her only obsession was to achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven.

It was like this before, it is like this now, and it will not change in the future.

Xiao Huai understood the hidden meaning of Sui Ning's words, but he did not give up and tried to prove that Sui Ning had him in her heart.

But Sui Ning looked at him with clear and pure eyes, without a trace of distracting thoughts.

It was almost summer, but Xiao Huai felt as if his heart had fallen into an ice cellar, freezing cold.

After a long while, he finally said in a hoarse voice: "If I don't have you by my side, I would rather live alone until the end of my life."

Sui Ning raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Huai, frowning slightly.

Liu Liu, standing by, reminded them at the right moment: "Ning Ning, this won't work! If Xiao Huai dies alone, there will be no one to inherit the Great Xiao Foundation, and then our mission will be impossible!"

To stabilize the country, an heir is crucial, but looking at Xiao Huai's appearance, he obviously wants to strike now!

Finally, Sui Ning had no choice but to say, "Now we must first resolve the current crisis. We can deal with other matters later."

When Xiao Huai saw Sui Ning's attitude softened, his brows relaxed slightly, but deep down he was still extremely bitter.

------

At the Dragon Boat Festival banquet.

Xiao Huai was watching the dragon boat show surrounded by princes and ministers.

On the lake, several dragon boats were filled with young warriors, all holding up their oars, full of energy and ready to go.

With a command, the dragon boat rushed out like a sharp arrow, cutting across the water and speeding towards the finish line where Xiao Huai was.

The atmosphere at the scene was high and lively.

Xiao Huai seemed to be immersed in the excitement, but the smile in his eyes did not reach his eyes.

As per custom, he rewarded the dragon boat performance teams as an encouragement.

However, at this moment, the leader of the dragon boat team suddenly pulled out a dagger from his boots and stabbed Xiao Huai fiercely.

Xiao Huai's eyes flashed and he quickly dodged to the side.

But the man missed the attack and did not intend to stop. He attacked Xiao Huai with even more ruthless moves.

At the same time, seeing this, other members participating in the dragon boat performance also drew out the sharp weapons they had hidden in advance and besieged Xiao Huai.

Seeing this, all the princes and ministers present were in a mess.

"There's an assassin! Protect the emperor, quickly!"

Immediately, the Royal Guards came out in full force and fought with the assassin.

At this time, at the gate of the imperial city.

Xiao Hechuan received the news from the palace and had already gathered his men and was about to break into the palace.

A young general beside Xiao Hechuan shouted loudly: "The emperor is in trouble, why don't you let him go quickly!"

The leader of the Imperial Guards narrowed his eyes and said sternly, "I have been ordered to guard the Imperial City. Without the Emperor's order, I will not open this city gate!"

Xiao Hechuan sneered, "If an assassin appears in the palace, the emperor will be in danger at any time. If something happens, how can you, a mere leader of the imperial guards, be held responsible?"

The leader of the imperial guards remained unmoved.

"They are just a few low-ranking villains. The Emperor has his own Royal Guards to protect him. There is no need for Your Highness to make such a big fuss!"

He decisively ordered his trusted subordinate beside him, "Hurry and inform the emperor that King Cheng's army is at the gates of the city. Please give your instructions!"

"Yes!"

However, just as he finished speaking, the leader of the imperial guards was caught off guard and stabbed through the chest by his trusted subordinate!

Warm blood flowed down the hilt of the knife, and he felt his life force slipping away.

"Why... why?"

The trusted subordinate smiled wickedly and said, "A wise bird chooses its tree to roost in. If you want to blame someone, blame the general for following the wrong master."

The long sword was suddenly pulled out, and the leader of the imperial guards died instantly.

The gate of the imperial city slowly opened, and Xiao Hechuan rode his horse and led his troops in, having a smooth journey.

As soon as Xiao Hechuan arrived at the scene, he shouted, "Everyone, follow me to protect the emperor!"

All his soldiers responded and joined the battle.

But soon the princes and ministers were confused.

All the soldiers brought by Xiao Hechuan would kill them all, regardless of whether they were assassins or royal guards.

In a short while, the place was littered with corpses and blood flowed like a river.

A minister noticed something was wrong and asked, "What is King Cheng doing?! Doesn't he even recognize the Imperial Guards?!"

Xiao Hechuan glanced sideways and explained calmly, "Grandmaster, be careful what you say. The assassin who sneaked in today is very cunning. How do you know he's not hiding among the Imperial Guards?"

"I'd rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go. I'm also concerned about the safety of the Emperor!"

The old Taifu, a very old man, immediately blushed with anger. "What nonsense! You brought troops into the palace without the emperor's order. It seems to me that you are trying to take advantage of the chaos to do something bad!"

However, just as the old tutor finished speaking, Xiao Hechuan swung his sword.

A burst of blood mist sprayed out, and the old tutor was beheaded in public in an instant!
