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

"I am a personal guard of the Third Prince!"

The man in black robes spoke in a deep voice, but as soon as he said those words, Yang Ling frowned.

When did my third brother become so concerned about me, even sending someone to come and find me?

"But what message did you bring?"

Yang Ling squinted at the other person.

"It's like this, Your Highness will be coming to Liangzhou in a few days, and sent me to scout out the route first."

The man in black spoke calmly, his tone polite but carrying an undeniable air of authority.

Yang Ling looked at the man in black robes in front of him with a serious expression. In the original owner's memories, it seemed that the relationship between him and the Third Prince Yang Kang was not very good.

Why would they suddenly want to come to Liangzhou at this time?

Could this be Emperor Liang's intention again?

Thinking of this, his eyes immediately darkened, and he became wary as he looked at the other person.

In this situation, anyone would understand that the other party definitely has ulterior motives.

"Your Highness, please rest assured, I have no ill intentions, and the Third Prince is only here for sightseeing in Liangzhou."

The man in black robes seemed to have guessed Yang Ling's thoughts, and then continued speaking. Yang Ling naturally didn't want to care about that.

Anyway, the Third Prince doesn't have much power. So what if he comes to Liangzhou? He still won't pose any threat to him.

After he saw the men in black off, An Yu, who had been visiting neighboring countries, returned.

"You've essentially robbed their national treasury! How did you manage to bring back so much stuff?"

Looking at the rare treasures An Yu brought back, Yang Ling acted like a spoiled young nobleman who had never seen the world.

An Yu cupped her hands in greeting and smiled slightly, "Please come inside with me, Your Highness!"

Yang Ling nodded, and then the two of them went into the study inside.

"Your Highness, we have already met with the surrounding countries, and they are planning to visit Liangzhou in a few days."

An Yu said to Yang Ling with a solemn expression.

Yang Ling nodded, then took a deep breath, her eyes filled with a solemn expression.

He knew perfectly well what those people were thinking; they simply wanted to seize the wealthy region of Liangzhou without bloodshed.

"Since they are willing to come, let them come. Let me see their courage then."

Yang Ling gave a cold laugh and then said.

His foundation is now stable, so if a powerful enemy attacks at this time, they will basically be there to give him experience points.

So he simply agreed.

"Your Highness is wise!"

An Yu cupped her hands in greeting.

Yang Ling waved her hand and said, "Alright, you must be tired after being out for so long. Get some rest!"

"Your Highness, walk slowly!"

An Yu bowed and said.

Yang Ling nodded, then left the study and returned to her bedroom.

But shortly after he returned to his room, he suddenly felt unbearably hot all over and became completely dizzy.

Immediately afterwards, an extremely rich fragrance wafted over, making him even more drowsy and intoxicated.

"Damn it!"

He couldn't help but curse, then lay down on the bed and quickly fell into a deep sleep.

Meanwhile, on the rooftop, a graceful figure stood, looking down at the scene below with a sly smile on her face and a slight upturn of her lips.

"This time I can finally complete the task assigned by the princess."

……

Meanwhile, in a room in Liangzhou City.

A girl stood quietly by the window, her beautiful eyes gazing at the scenery in the courtyard.

After a long while, she sighed.

"What a troublesome thing."

A bitter smile appeared on her lips, and then she turned and walked outside.

"Miss, where are you going?"

A clear voice rang out, and then a girl who looked like a maid walked over and asked anxiously.

"Go find Lord Chen!"

The woman who spoke was none other than Liang Hui, who had just arrived in Liangzhou that day and was sent by the Crown Prince to monitor Chen Ming.

Although the eunuch was dead, Chen Ming was still a major concern for the Crown Prince, so someone still had to keep an eye on him.

"Yes, I will go and call the coachman right away."

The maidservant hurriedly ran out and soon returned with a carriage.

Liang Hui rode in a carriage straight to the most bustling street in Liangzhou City.

When she arrived at the gate of Chen Ming's mansion, a smile appeared on her lips as she looked at the building in front of her.

Then he got off the carriage and walked straight into the mansion.

"Young lady, this is the city lord's mansion. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter!"

However, the moment she stepped inside, she was stopped by two guards.

Without saying a word, Liang Hui slapped one of the guards across the face and then kicked the other guard away.

"Go away!"

With a cold shout, Liang Hui barged in.

"boom!"

As soon as she walked in, she smashed through the hall door.

Then his gaze fell on Chen Ming.

Chen Ming was eating when the sudden action made him frown.

"How dare you trespass into the city lord's mansion!"

A roar came, and then a young man appeared in Liang Hui's sight.

"What's the point of killing a chicken with a bull's knife?"

Liang Hui glanced at the man in front of her, then slowly walked up to him.

She stomped down hard, and the young man was knocked to the ground.

As the sound of bones cracking rang out, the young man let out a painful scream, his eyes flashing with terror.

He never dreamed that this seemingly frail woman would possess such strength.

"who are you?"

Chen Ming said with a gloomy expression.

"You're Chen Ming?"

Liang Hui looked at Chen Ming, a hint of disgust flashing in her eyes.

"It's me!"

Chen Ming nodded, then said coldly, "I have never met you before. Why have you trespassed into my city lord's mansion?"

Liang Hui looked at Chen Ming in front of her, a mocking smile playing on her lips.

"Let me tell you, this is Liangzhou City, not a place where you can act recklessly."

Chen Ming was stunned when he saw the woman who had suddenly barged in. Who on earth was so bold?

"Lord Chen is still so timid."

Liang Hui raised an eyebrow at Chen Ming, a wicked smile playing on her lips, making her look like a devil, sending chills down one's spine.

"What are you going to do?"

Chen Ming looked at her with a fearful expression, and then said.

"What's wrong, Lord Chen? Are you afraid?"

A hint of mockery flashed in Liang Hui's eyes, and then she spoke coldly.

Upon hearing her words, Chen Ming's face flushed red, but he couldn't utter a single word for a long time.

He was indeed afraid of the woman in front of him because her martial arts skills were far superior to his, and he didn't even have a chance to escape.

"I can give you money, just please let me go!"

After hesitating for a long time, Chen Ming said in a low voice.

At this moment, he had lost all his own opinions and didn't know why he had provoked such a powerful person.
