Chapter 42 Even the Emperor's Secret Guards Get Beaten Up

Around noon, when it was lunchtime, Li Tingting went to the canteen to get her food.

After taking a few bites, she frowned and kept spitting out the food.

"This food is awful! What's that? Let me try it."

Upon hearing this, the palace maids were immediately taken aback and frantically shook their heads: "Guard Li, this is Consort Hui's meal!"

"Don't move her! We need to get her there now."

"Oh, then I must examine this more carefully. What if someone has poisoned it?"

Li Tingting said seriously, and then she picked up her chopsticks and began to use her position for personal gain.

She picked up every single dish, even the soup.

After she finished, she waved her hand and said, "Alright, you can leave now. Hurry up and deliver it to Consort Hui."

After the palace maids left, she began to eat heartily.

He nodded as he ate, praising it a few times: "Hmm, it tastes good."

This matter naturally reached Consort Hui, who could only shake her head helplessly and smile after hearing it.

"Alright, alright, let Guard Li do whatever she wants if she wants to inspect in the future!"

Since she is fulfilling her duties so diligently, I am relieved.

Before long, the emperor suddenly arrived at Yonghua Palace.

Consort Hui hurriedly put down her chopsticks and rose to greet him, but the Emperor waved her hand.

His gaze searched the hall and soon landed on Li Tingting.

"This must be Li Fei's daughter, Li Tingting? She is indeed heroic and extraordinary."

The emperor said with a smile, his eyes full of flattery.

Li Tingting merely gave a slight bow, her expression indifferent, and replied neither servile nor arrogantly, "Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty."

The emperor, however, paid no attention and continued, "I've heard you are highly skilled in martial arts..."

"Today is my first day on duty, and I am very pleased that you have fulfilled your responsibilities in the palace."

Upon hearing this, Consort Hui, who was standing to the side, secretly thought to herself, "She's really doing her job."

He was late for work without wearing his uniform, and then assaulted his boss and colleagues.

After that, they even stole my food and tasted it all first.

If these things were done to someone with no background, the lightest punishment would be the execution of their entire family.

But Li Tingting remained expressionless after hearing this and replied, "Your Majesty flatters me. This is my duty."

The emperor smiled ingratiatingly and said, "Tingting, please don't blame me for acting on my own."

Your father's passing is a loss to the court. I have also heard that you are highly skilled in martial arts, so I am thinking of letting you follow in your father's footsteps!

Don't worry, working at Yonghua Palace is just a stepping stone.

If any vacancies arise in the army in the future, I will certainly make arrangements.

Li Tingting didn't even glance at it, and said indifferently, "Your Majesty's great favor..."

"I will not accept rewards without merit; I, your humble servant, will certainly fulfill my duties faithfully and live up to my mission."

Upon hearing this, the emperor immediately smiled and said, "Good, good, Tingting is indeed like her father. I am very pleased."

That old lecher, whenever he comes to Yonghua Palace, speaks with an air of utmost seriousness.

But Li Tingting couldn't stand his gaze; he was simply a shameless old man.

"Your Majesty, I will take my leave now so as not to disturb your time with the Imperial Consort."

"Alright, alright, then Tingting, you may go down first," the emperor agreed with a sly grin.

After bidding farewell to the emperor, Li Tingting walked out of the gate of Yonghua Palace.

She had only taken a few steps when she keenly sensed a faint but palpable killing intent around her.

She remained calm and seemingly nonchalant as she continued walking, her eyes secretly observing the surrounding movements.

Based on her intuition from years of special operations experience, Li Tingting located a large tree outside Yonghua Palace.

She quickened her pace, and with a flash, she leaped onto the tree like a ghost.

The guard was taken aback, not expecting Li Tingting to discover his hiding place so quickly.

But he was, after all, a well-trained and highly skilled bodyguard, and reacted instantly, swinging his palm to attack Li Tingting.

Li Tingting dodged to the side, drew her military knife, and with a cold glint, thrust it straight at the guard's face.

The guard turned and dodged, his short sword sweeping across Li Tingting's lower body.

The two engaged in a fierce battle among the tree branches, which were cut down by the sword energy and wind.

Li Tingting's swordsmanship was as swift as the wind, her moves fierce and ruthless, giving the guards no chance to catch their breath.

The bodyguards, relying on their agility and extensive combat experience, barely managed to withstand Li Tingting's attacks.

After several dozen rounds, Li Tingting spotted a weakness in the guard's defenses.

He kicked the guard's wrist, and the guard's short knife fell from his hand to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, she pressed her military knife against the guard's throat.

"Speak! Why are you hiding here spying?" Li Tingting glared at her and demanded sharply.

The guard angrily shouted, "Li Tingting!"

You are merely a third-rank guard of Yonghua Palace, yet you dare to be disrespectful to me!

"I am a first-rank imperial guard, ordered to secretly protect the Emperor's safety. How dare you be so insolent!"

Li Tingting sneered and replied, "Acting on orders? By whose orders?"

Seeing you hiding your head and tail, acting all sneaky, I feel like you're the assassin instead.

A first-rank imperial guard? Who can vouch for that for you?

"Guards, seize him and hand him over to the Ministry of Justice for further processing."

The guard turned pale with anger and roared, "How dare you! You little brat, you don't know your place!"

How could you possibly know what I have done? Today you have committed insubordination and will surely be punished!

This is my name tag, take a good look at it! Hmph.

When Li Tingting saw his name tag, she smiled and said, "Oh dear! I'm sorry."

"Sir, it was all a misunderstanding! Haha, please continue, sir! Sorry to bother you, haha."

The guard gritted his teeth and said, "Hmph! This is outrageous!"

Li Tingting crossed her arms and said dismissively, "My lord, I've already explained it."

You're busy, I'll be going now, goodbye!

The guard glared at Li Tingting fiercely before quickly finding a secluded spot to hide.

After watching his disappearing figure, Li Tingting smiled disdainfully.

Li Tingting is deliberately being arrogant today. Don't you know that the Li family used to be low-key?

Is being dishonest useful? It doesn't change anything; the emperor is still watching you just the same way.

Li Tingting felt sorry for her adoptive father whenever she thought about him.

He was loyal his whole life, and even after his death, the emperor's attention remained focused on the Li family.

Since you won't let me live a peaceful life, then don't blame me for giving you a talking-to.

This is why she attacked him even though she knew he was the emperor's secret guard.

She was showing that lecherous old emperor that killing him would be easy for her.

Li Tingting knew very well that if she had behaved and acted properly today,

Then she would definitely receive even more severe suppression. Sure enough, after her high-profile actions,

The guards who had been beaten by her that morning were now all planning to curry favor with her.

Are you kidding me? Li Tingting can even beat up the emperor's secret guards. How can ordinary guards like us fight against her?
