Female special forces soldiers in ancient times

"This humble official greets General Li, and apologizes for keeping you waiting."

"This humble official truly deserves to die!"

"Alright, Lord Fan, there's no need for such formalities. I've come here today..."

I just wanted to ask, how's your investigation into the Crown Prince going?

Why did the Emperor suddenly issue an edict to make arrangements? Could it be that you have already found out the truth?

Now that you've found out, why didn't you inform me?

Inside the carriage, Li Tingting reprimanded Fan Debiao with displeasure.

He was so frightened that his face turned ashen and his legs went weak.

"General, I am innocent! I clearly reported this to the Emperor the day before yesterday."

This case is riddled with doubts and the truth still needs to be uncovered.

I never expected His Majesty to suddenly issue an edict to make alternative arrangements; I was caught completely off guard.

After a pause, Fan Debiao looked at Li Tingting with a fawning smile.

"General, you've been waiting here for so long, you must be parched."

"Why don't we come inside for a chat and have some hot tea to quench our thirst?"

"Okay, then lead the way."

"Yes, yes, General, this way please!"

Seeing that Li Tingting was willing to do him the honor, Fan Debiao immediately led the way with a fawning expression.

Unexpectedly, Li Tingting entered his house, and after Fan Debiao had tea served,

After dismissing everyone around him, he immediately turned cold, drew his sword, and held it to Fan Debiao's neck.

"Hmph! Fan Debiao, do you think I'm easy to fool?"

"Ah, Miss Li, I really dare not! Please forgive me!"

"Your Dali Temple is full of talented people, with so many expert detectives."

You're telling me you can't find anything? Are you trying to fool a three-year-old?

Tell me quickly, who is the mastermind behind this?

Upon seeing the sword's cold glint, Fan Debiao's face turned ashen, and his legs went weak.

He fell to his knees with a thud, weeping and begging for mercy in a low voice.

His body trembled like a leaf.

"Miss Li, I am truly innocent! I have never intended to deceive you!"

Li Tingting's eyebrows furrowed, her almond-shaped eyes widened, and she shouted angrily:

"Hmph! Do you think I wouldn't dare kill you?"

I'll ask you one last time, who is the mastermind behind this?

If there is even half a lie, believe me, I'll make sure you bleed on the spot!

With that, she applied a little force, and the sword pressed a shallow mark on Fan Debiao's neck.

Fan Debiao stared wide-eyed in terror, his face streaked with snot and tears.

He stammered a few words, "General... I really don't know!"

All I know is that this case is complex, and the forces behind it seem to be quite powerful.

His power is so great that he can control everything; I suspect this was something he had planned for a long time.

"Please, General, have mercy and spare my life!"

He clasped his hands together and desperately bowed to Li Tingting, his eyes filled with despair and pleading.

But from Fan Debiao's tone, Li Tingting could tell that he had already found out the general outline.

Li Tingting then gave a cold laugh.

"Haha, get up! You don't need to put on an act in front of me."

You're just smart enough not to want to get involved.

"Thank you for your kindness, Miss. Since you are so perceptive, I will give you another piece of information."

Seeing that Li Tingting was no longer making things difficult for him, Fan Debiao wiped away the tears on his face and the sweat on his forehead.

"Oh, really? Lord Fan, please speak. Don't blame me for pressuring you like this."

"Hmph! He's plotting his grand schemes, but his mistake was killing my sister."

"I understand your grief over the loss of your younger sister, Miss. However, I would still like to ask you something..."

There are always people more capable than you, and the mastermind behind this case...

Not only had they been plotting for a long time, but their methods were also extremely sophisticated.

After hearing this, Li Tingting nodded, "Okay, I understand."

That's settled then! I'll head back now, thank you.

"Alright, Miss Li, I'll see you off."

......

In a luxurious mansion outside his fiefdom, the fourth prince wore a deep purple robe embroidered with gold pythons.

That rich purple was like the deep night sky, mysterious and noble.

The python pattern embroidered with gold thread is incredibly lifelike.

Illuminated by candlelight, he seemed to float on clouds, highlighting his unparalleled noble status and position.

His study was spacious and elegant, with calligraphy by famous artists hanging on the walls.

The strokes are vigorous and powerful, as if one can feel the writer's lofty aspirations.

In the center of the room stood an ebony desk with fine grain.

It emitted a faint, dim light, and several ancient books and memorials were neatly stacked on the table.

The chair behind the desk is even more exquisite, its body made of the finest rosewood.

The backrest is high and carved with intricate dragon and phoenix patterns.

The chair cushions were made of precious brocade, embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns.

The fourth prince leaned back lazily in the chair, his fingers rhythmically tapping the armrest.

At this moment, his attendant hurriedly entered the study, bowed respectfully, and...

He began reporting on the situation within the fiefdom: "Your Highness, the cultivated land within the fiefdom..."

Spring planting has been completed for some time now, and feedback from various sources indicates that the crops are growing very well.

"Well, that's good, haha, that's a good omen!"

You can go down now!

Upon hearing the report, the fourth prince smiled slightly and waved to his attendant.

The attendant immediately withdrew as ordered.

After the attendants withdrew, the door to the study was gently pushed open, and two more advisors walked in steadily.

One of them had the appearance of a scholar. He was thin, with deep and serene eyes.

His eyes seemed to hold the starlight of endless wisdom, and a faint smile played at the corners of his lips.

That smile seemed to convey an unwavering confidence that one had a complete understanding of all things in the world.

Her moon-gray robe fluttered in the wind, making her appear even more ethereal and otherworldly, as if she could annihilate the enemy army with a mere laugh.

The other was a burly man with broad shoulders and a thick, bushy brow.

His leopard-like eyes were bright and piercing, revealing the unwavering determination and courage of someone who had been through countless battles.

His bronze face was as if sculpted by a knife and axe, and every wrinkle was etched with the glory of past battles.

He was clad in dark armor, the plates gleaming with a cold, metallic sheen in the candlelight.

Standing there, he resembled a majestic and unshakeable mountain peak.

It gives the impression that this person is capable of charging into battle and being invincible.

Upon seeing the two arrive, the Fourth Prince sat up slightly and glanced at them.

"There is good news regarding the spring planting; as for the current situation in the capital..."

What are your two insightful opinions?

The scholar-strategist stepped forward, clasped his hands in a gesture of respect, and remained calm and composed.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince has been deposed, the Second Prince has been executed, and the Third Prince has been exiled."

I believe that His Majesty will soon issue an edict ordering your return to the capital.

As for the strategist who resembled a military general, he clasped his hands in a salute, his voice booming like a bell:

"Your Highness, this humble general has already trained the soldiers within the fiefdom into elite troops."

Protecting His Highness's safety is no burden for me, even if it means going to battle in the future.

They can be invincible!

The fourth prince laughed heartily upon hearing their words.

"That's good. It seems I've had a string of happy events lately."

Everything went smoothly!

As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them burst into wild laughter throughout the room.
