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

"Hahaha!"

Zhou Tian laughed a few times and said, "Isn't Your Highness afraid?"

Yang Ling paused for a moment upon hearing this, but he remained calm and said, "Afraid? Why should I be afraid?"

"Haha, Your Highness is indeed wise and mighty, but there is a saying that even a tiger will not eat its cubs."

Zhou Tian sighed.

Yang Ling narrowed her eyes, staring at Zhou Tian, ​​and said coldly, "You're threatening me."

Zhou Tian shook his head and said, "This humble general dares not, but this humble general would like to advise Your Highness not to play with fire and get burned, lest you not even know how you died in the end."

As soon as he said this, Yang Ling looked at the guy in front of him with amusement. A mere lieutenant general dared to say such treasonous things in front of him.

It seems that Lin Chong was behind this. Although the young man has led his troops to surrender, he is still somewhat resentful.

However, Yang Ling didn't take it to heart; these people were not worth worrying about at all.

"General Zhou, you are right. I am indeed playing with fire and getting burned. Unfortunately, you realize it too late."

"what?"

"Bang~"

Yang Ling fired without any hesitation.

With firearms in hand, who's afraid of whom?

"Pfft..."

Zhou Tian spat out a mouthful of blood, flew backward, and crashed to the ground, barely alive; he was clearly beyond saving.

Yang Ling looked at Zhou Tian with a cold expression in her eyes.

Lin Chong, who was standing not far away, widened his eyes and looked at Yang Ling in front of him in disbelief.

His face was filled with intense shock.

Yang Ling is truly ruthless.

He never expected Yang Ling to be so audacious as to dare to shoot one of his own men on such an important occasion.

Yang Ling looked at the corpse in front of her and smiled coldly. This was the consequence of disobeying her. Serves him right.

After leaving the military camp, Yang Ling couldn't wait to return to his palace.

Yang Ling preferred returning to his palace rather than appearing in the military camp.

"Your Highness, you're finally back."

As soon as Yang Ling entered the Prince's residence, the steward hurriedly came to greet her.

Upon hearing this, Yang Ling asked with some confusion, "Butler, what's wrong?"

"Your Highness, a girl came to see you earlier."

"girl?"

Yang Ling was slightly taken aback. When did a girl come to his palace?

"Yes, she said her surname is Li," the butler said in a low voice.

A figure flashed through Yang Ling's mind in an instant. Could it be that she has arrived?

"Lead the way."

Yang Ling took a deep breath and followed the butler toward the living room.

When I arrived at the living room, sure enough, a beautiful young woman was sitting there.

The girl was young, but she possessed an absolutely stunning beauty.

Especially that aura, it gives people a suffocating feeling.

"Little brat, what are you doing here?"

Yang Ling joked.

He recognized the girl in front of him; he had met her back in the capital.

I never expected this woman to find her way here.

"Hmph, you really are something else. In just a few days, you've managed to gather 300,000 iron cavalry. Even my father can't match your skills."

Li Ling'er snorted lightly. She remembered how this guy had been forced to flee in such a sorry state back then.

They now have an army of 300,000.

This guy's growth rate is just too fast.

"Hehe, what does this little brat know? This is called biding your time and concealing your abilities, don't you understand?"

Yang Ling touched his nose and said, "Let me tell you, I have now truly unified the Hetao Plain. From now on, the entire northwest of Daliang will belong to me. So, we will be allies from now on."

Li Ling'er rolled her eyes and said, "You wish! I would never ally with you."

Yang Ling laughed and said, "Why? Didn't you say your father had already agreed?"

Li Ling'er pouted and said, "Don't mention it. My father never agreed. He just sent me here to test your strength and let you know that he has no intention of surrendering to you, so you can give up on that idea."

Yang Ling narrowed his eyes slightly. He hadn't expected Li Yuanba to have such courage.

"Go back and tell your father that I am waiting for him. I will only consider other things when he surrenders," Yang Ling said calmly.

"Hmph, you're exaggerating. My father won't surrender," Li Ling'er retorted without hesitation.

Yang Ling smiled but didn't say anything more.

Li Ling'er glared at Yang Ling and suddenly asked, "I heard you're going to take action against the Chu Kingdom."

Upon hearing this, Yang Ling glanced at Li Ling'er. He didn't believe that this little girl would really care about the State of Chu.

"You want to know?" Yang Ling looked at Li Ling'er with great interest.

Li Ling'er immediately pouted and said, "Tch, if you want to tell me, then tell me. I'm too lazy to ask."

Yang Ling looked at Li Ling'er and couldn't help but smile, then said, "But since you asked, I'll tell you anyway."

"Guess when I plan to make my move?"

"About three days from now, I hear that Chu's reinforcements have already arrived at the border," Li Ling'er said.

Yang Ling nodded and said, "That's right, the Chu reinforcements will arrive at the border in three days."

"Aren't you afraid?" Li Ling'er looked at Yang Ling curiously.

"afraid?"

Yang Ling scoffed, "Do you think I'm afraid of the Chu Kingdom?"

Li Ling'er pondered for a moment and said, "That's true. My father was once an invincible general, but he has to admit that you are indeed powerful. Even if he could still go to the battlefield now, he might not be able to compare with you."

"So what do I have to be afraid of?" Yang Ling shrugged.

Li Ling'er felt a wave of disdain. She found that Yang Ling was completely shameless.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, hurry up and leave. I don't need your help here," Yang Ling waved her hand and said.

Upon hearing this, Li Ling'er gritted her teeth and glared at Yang Ling, saying, "Yang Ling, have you forgotten that you owe me something?"

Yang Ling paused for a moment, thought carefully for a while, and seemed to have thought of something. She looked at Li Ling'er with a smile and said, "You mean this?"

He then took out a jade pendant and handed it to Li Ling'er, saying, "Here, this is for you."

"you……"

Li Ling'er took the jade pendant, and her face immediately darkened.

This jade pendant was a thank-you gift he promised to give me after I saved his life.

When I came to him, he actually gave me this thing. That bastard was deliberately making fun of me.

"Hey, hey, hey, why are you angry? This jade pendant isn't worth much."

Seeing Li Ling'er's angry expression, Yang Ling hurriedly explained.

He knew this girl's temper very well; if he upset her, he probably wouldn't be able to sleep in his room tonight.

"Hmph!" Li Ling'er snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Yang Ling watched Li Ling'er's departing figure and shook her head. This girl really is quite cute.
