Female special forces soldiers in ancient times

At dawn, a biting wind swept through the deep courtyard of the Wei family compound.

The snow in the courtyard had not yet melted, and several pine trees were covered with a thin layer of frost.

The sound of snow sweeping could be heard in the distance, and the maids, their breath steaming in the air, were busy preparing for the new day.

As soon as Wei Decai got up, he hurriedly took his wife and Wei Yufeng with him.

Upon entering the secret room, he greeted Li Tingting.

He had barely entered the secret chamber when he knelt down with a thud, his voice trembling:

"Your Majesty, please forgive me! A cenotaph has been set up in the capital for your funeral."

They deceived everyone and turned black into white.

Yesterday afternoon, the county government sent someone to deliver an order, but the people were kept in the dark.

In accordance with the customs of national mourning, I had intended to inform you of this last night.

But I was afraid of disturbing your rest, so I waited until this morning to inform you.

Although Wei Decai is now Li Tingting's great benefactor, he dares not overstep his bounds.

He simply behaved himself, coming in to pay his respects once every morning and then not disturbing anyone.

"Old Master Wei, then you can arrange for the request to be fulfilled."

Let those treacherous officials in the court cause trouble! Once I've recovered...

Then we'll teach these clowns a lesson.

Upon hearing Wei Decai's report, Li Tingting pondered for a moment, then smiled gently.

Seeing Li Tingting's confident demeanor, Wei Decai felt relieved.

After exchanging a few polite words, he led Wei Yufeng and the others out of the dark room.

......

The next day, the Li family compound in the capital was completely white.

The high courtyard walls and pillars were all wrapped in white silk, fluttering in the cold wind.

The old locust trees in the courtyard were also covered with white cloth, and their branches were adorned with white paper flowers.

It rustled in the wind, as if weeping softly.

At the entrance of the compound, people came to pay their respects in a flood.

The elders and relatives of the clan, with solemn expressions and dressed in plain clothes, slowly entered the living room.

Those gossipy aunts and grandmothers who are usually so talkative and cheerful,

His eyes were also red at this moment, and he kept his handkerchief close at hand.

With a sorrowful expression, she stayed with Madam Lin and Madam Liang, sobbing softly.

How could this be? How could this be?

I went to Youxia Temple a few days ago to draw a fortune stick, and it was clearly a very auspicious one.

They said my Tingting will definitely return safely and achieve great things.

Today, the imperial court is demanding that a cenotaph be held for her. How can Madam Lin accept this?

"No way! This can't be true, my older sister will definitely be alright."

How could my older sister not be here? I don't believe it, boohoo~.

Don't be fooled by Li Qing's usual cunning and slyness when he goes to see Li Tingting.

But that doesn't mean he and Li Tingting had no feelings for each other; he was crying his eyes out at that moment.

"Yes, my eldest sister's kung fu is so good, even Su Zheng of the Great Zhou Dynasty can't beat her."

How could anyone possibly kill her? I can't believe it, boohoo...

Li Rong, Li Chaochao, and Li Juanjuan, who were standing nearby, were also crying uncontrollably.

"Tingting, you silly child, you just wouldn't listen to your aunt's advice on the spot."

She insisted on marrying into the palace, and now that you're in trouble...

How will my aunt face my elder brother and sister-in-law after this?"

Mrs. Lin wailed and cried, pounding her chest and stamping her feet.

Madam Liang, on the other hand, had an icy expression and murderous intent in her eyes.

He wiped away the tears from his eyes with a handkerchief and gritted his teeth as he looked in the direction of the palace.

"Hmph, no matter the cost, anyone who killed my Tingting will be punished."

They all have to go down and be buried with her.

As soon as she finished speaking, the grief that had been building up in her heart surged forth like a flood bursting its banks.

Madam Liang's body convulsed violently and uncontrollably, and she let out heart-wrenching cries.

The cries were filled with tenderness for Li Tingting, resentment towards the villains, and a deep sense of powerlessness.

Upon seeing this, the surrounding tribesmen's eyes also reddened, and they quickly gathered around.

A woman from the Li family who lived close to Madam Liang had red eyes.

He helped Madam Liang up, his voice trembling with tears, yet filled with resolve:

"Sister-in-law! We all understand your pain. After what happened to Tingting..."

Which of us doesn't feel heartache? Which of us doesn't hate?

Hmph! Our Li family isn't easy to bully! Those thieves dared to touch our Tingting!

That would be to oppose the entire Li family, even if the other party were the Heavenly King himself.

We will not let those evildoers get away with it!

Another woman from the Li family rushed over, wiping away tears.

He held Mrs. Lin's hand:

"Sister-in-law, let's calm things down first. As long as the Li family is still around..."

We will definitely get justice for Tingting!

You two need to take care of yourselves. Let's work together to find those who harmed Tingting!

And Li's sixth uncle clenched his cane even more fiercely.

Slam the ground hard.

He roared, his face contorted with rage, "That's right! Blood for blood!"

"If they dared to treat Tingting like that, they'd better be prepared to face the wrath of the Li family!"

The reason why the Li family in Beijing has remained in Beijing for so many years is...

The reason they rank first, besides their own strength, is the strong unity and protectiveness among the entire clan.

Empress Li Tingting, revered as the queen of a nation, was assassinated during her childbirth.

With their whereabouts unknown, how could the Li family members swallow this insult?

Moreover, as the most prominent family in the capital, they value face the most.

How could the Li family possibly let this go?

......

Meanwhile, as the sun rose, golden rays bathed the streets and alleys of the capital.

However, it failed to dispel the oppressive and sorrowful atmosphere that permeated the air.

The streets of the capital were already packed with people.

Most of them had solemn expressions, revealing bewilderment and sorrow.

Some elderly people, their cloudy eyes filled with sorrow,

He murmured about the Empress's virtues;

The young women gently wiped their reddened eyes with handkerchiefs.

They were sobbing softly; the children didn't understand what had happened.

Yet, they too were affected by the somber atmosphere, clinging tightly to the adults, not daring to utter a word.

Between the crowd and the road,

Rows of imperial guards and soldiers maintaining order in the capital stood in neat rows.

They were dressed in gleaming armor, with white cloth strips uniformly attached to it.

The weapon in his hand gleamed coldly in the morning light.

The soldiers stood tall and solemn, like silent statues.

They kept a vigilant eye on their surroundings to ensure the smooth passage of the funeral procession.

Before long, a carriage decorated with plain white silk slowly drove up.

On the carriage, there was a cenotaph for Li Tingting, surrounded by white flowers.

The horses pulling the cart seemed to sense the somber atmosphere as well.

They walked slowly and steadily, moving forward at a leisurely pace.

As the carriage passed by, the people bowed their heads, some unable to hold back their tears once more.

Some silently offered their final blessings to the empress.

A middle-aged man in a cotton-padded coat waited until Li Tingting's hearse and entourage had left.

Looking around at the ferocious officials,

His body trembled involuntarily. To be honest, if he hadn't been forced by those officials,

Who would actually come to escort the Empress's hearse?

Whether she lives or dies, what does it matter to me? It's freezing cold, and I'm just here to suffer.

Pah! What do I have to be sad about? What good could she have given me while she was alive?

But these thoughts remained just that—thoughts in his mind.

If you dare to say it out loud, it's a serious crime that will wipe out your entire family, including nine generations of your relatives.

So he forced out a handful of tears and burst into tears.

"Your Majesty, you died such a tragic death! Waaah~"

A neighbor standing behind him had a long-standing grudge against this middle-aged man.

Upon hearing this, he immediately perked up and kicked the middle-aged man away.
