The carefree sixth prince, my father respectfully invites me to ascend the throne.

Yun'er's gentle voice rang in his ears, and Yang Ling smiled slightly upon hearing it.

She looked up at Yun'er standing in front of her and reached out to take her arm.

The two rarely had physical contact, so this sudden movement caused Yun'er's cheeks to flush red again.

"Why are you blushing again? Are you so shy in front of me?"

Now, as the King of Xiliang, Yang Ling has truly taken control of the entire Liangzhou region, even though there are still some people who remain obstinate.

"Your Highness, Yun'er is still young."

As she said these words, Yun'er wished she could bury her head in Yang Ling's chest.

As Yang Ling sensed the unique fragrance emanating from Yun'er, he felt his heart pounding wildly.

"What, do you think I'm some kind of beast? Would I do anything to you?"

As Yang Ling said these words, she was trying her best to suppress the primal urge within her body.

In the past, the original owner would never have done such a thing.

But he wasn't the original owner of this body; he had transmigrated from the future. Seeing such a beautiful and lovely person, he naturally couldn't control himself.

Moreover, now that he has achieved great success, he naturally harbors some desires.

Yun'er's face grew even hotter, and her body trembled slightly. Yang Ling could hardly resist and his lips were already slightly close to hers.

Yun'er closed her eyes, as if waiting for Yang Ling to take the initiative.

At this moment, Yang Ling could only recite a poem: "A fair maiden is the object of a gentleman's affections."

He was only thinking this in his heart, and before he could even kiss her, a hidden arrow came straight for his head.

Fortunately, Li Tianba was nearby and rushed over as soon as he saw the hidden arrow.

"Your Highness, be careful of assassins."

Li Tianba roared and, without saying a word, rushed to Yang Ling and caught the hidden arrow with his hand.

The other guards who had been hiding in the shadows appeared and surrounded the person who had just fired the arrow.

Yang Ling's face was terribly gloomy. He hoped that he wouldn't let himself catch this guy, or he would tear him apart.

"Tianba, take your men and capture that man for me at all costs. I want to personally dismember him."

At this moment, Yang Ling was burning with rage, as he was about to kiss Yun'er.

Yun'er was the most beautiful person he had ever met since he traveled through time, and Yang Ling didn't want to ruin his beautiful relationship with Yun'er because of an assassin.

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Tianba led his men to pursue the source of the hidden arrow.

Yun'er was terrified. If Li Tianba hadn't appeared in time, she and Yang Ling would probably have suffered some kind of accident.

"Your Highness, are you alright?"

Yun'er looked worried and tugged at Yang Ling's arm.

Yang Ling shook his head. If Li Tianba hadn't reacted quickly, he might have actually been injured by that hidden arrow.

"I'm fine, don't worry."

Seeing Yun'er's worried expression, Yang Ling smiled again, reached out and patted the back of Yun'er's hand to reassure her.

"Your Highness, why don't we go back inside? It's far too dangerous outside. Who knows if there are other assassins?"

Yun'er pulled Yang Ling's arm, wanting to go inside; what had just happened was far too dangerous.

Yang Ling shook her head slightly. If these people really wanted to assassinate her, it would be just as dangerous no matter where they went.

"Go back to your room first. I have some things to take care of. I'll come to see you tonight."

As Yang Ling was leaving, he patted Yun'er's bottom. Yun'er couldn't help but snort and looked at Yang Ling's back with a reproachful expression.

Not long ago, His Highness became a completely different person.

Although she didn't know the exact reason, she preferred the current Ninth Prince.

As Yang Ling emerged from his residence, two guards immediately followed behind him.

"Your Highness, it's best not to go out now."

The guard also looked respectful, after all, the assassin from earlier had not been captured yet, and it would be too risky to go out now.

Upon hearing this, Yang Ling smiled slightly and summoned the two guards to his side.

He whispered something to the two guards, and they both widened their eyes in unison.

"Your Highness, this is no laughing matter. What if..."

Before they could finish speaking, Yang Ling waved his hand, saying that he wasn't a completely useless person.

"You two shall do as I command."

The two guards had no choice but to obey Yang Ling's orders.

As they left, the two guards still looked worried.

After watching the guards leave, Yang Ling's lips curled up slightly. He wanted to see if the person behind them was his elder brother, the Crown Prince.

With his hands behind his back and an aloof demeanor, he headed towards the restaurant not far away.

He wanted to be alone, so that all those hiding in the shadows would be exposed.

When he slowly walked up to the restaurant, the restaurant owner immediately became respectful upon seeing that it was the King of Xiliang.

"Your Highness, why did you come all the way here? If there's anything you'd like to eat or drink, just have someone come and tell us, and we'll send it over."

The shopkeeper looked terrified. Yang Ling was no ordinary person now; in Longxi City, he could be considered someone above ten thousand others.

If something were to happen to him in his own restaurant, he wouldn't know how to explain it.

Yang Ling simply waved his hand when he heard what the other person said, a playful smile on his face.

"I'm not that kind of pretentious person. I'm just taking a casual stroll. Bring out all the signature dishes from your restaurant."

As he spoke, he headed towards the private room on the third floor. The innkeeper dared not delay and immediately sent someone down to prepare.

Yang Ling sat in the restaurant, leaning against the window and watching the pedestrians below.

My actions should have already reached the capital of Liang. I wonder what my father and crown prince will think when they hear about it.

……

In the capital of the Great Liang Kingdom, when the secret agents presented the Ninth Prince's actions to the Emperor, the Emperor was furious.

"I thought this rebellious son was doomed, but who knew he would live such a carefree life."

Emperor Liang slammed his hand on the table, his face turning extremely ugly.

Yang Ling's successful arrival in Liangzhou was a blatant slap in the face to himself.

Seeing Emperor Liang's fury, Chief Eunuch Wang Chengen, who was already in cahoots with Crown Prince Yang Shan, hurriedly went to Emperor Liang and began to offer bad advice.

"Your Majesty, I've heard that the barbarians on the border of Liangzhou are causing quite a ruckus. Perhaps we could have the Ninth Prince handle it?"
