  Ling Luo quietly watched Ning Meng Yao leave. There was a peace of mind and a blissful look on his face. Perhaps this was fine, seeing her living well, he was at ease.

  At the palace, it was in a state of tension right now.

  There were already many ministers killed, it was those who swayed with uncertainty. As for Xiao Qi Feng’s side, all of them remained fine.

  That was probably the most comforting news for Xiao Qi Feng.

  Qiao Tian Chang sat at the corner and watched as Marquis Ling continued acting arrogantly, he was feeling impatient inside. Is he done yet?

  ”After making a fuss for such a long time, is Prince Nangong not planning to come out?” Qiao Tian Chang suddenly said. Marquis Ling subconsciously looked towards the direction of that voice. His sight landed on Qiao Tian Chang’s black armor, his hair was erected and there was impatience on his face.

  The person Marquis Ling hated the most was Qiao Tian Chang: “General Qiao, do you think you are still the great general? You are just a prisoner now.”


  Qiao Tian Chang hated people talking about him like that, he slowly stood up, he did not seem to be poisoned.

  ”You…… How are you fine?” Marquis Ling was surprised Qiao Tian Chang was able to stand up.

  ”You didn’t believe me when I said you are stupid. Don’t you know there’s a divine doctor in the General’s Residence? If there’s a divine doctor, there’s naturally antidote pills,” Qiao Tian Chang’s mood suddenly became really good, seeing the smile on his face, everyone knew what was going on from a glance.

  Marquis Ling’s expression changed, if Qiao Tian Chang was fine, then……”


  He immediately turned his head, he saw Xiao Qi Feng standing up from his throne, there was no sign of him being poisoned.

  ”Prince Nangong, could it be that you want me to invite you out?” Qiao Tian Chang sneered and said as he looked at the small-sized servant beside Marquis Ling.

  Nangong Yue, who had changed his looks, had been exposed. He quickly tried to escape.

  However, Qiao Tian Chang was not a weak person and he blocked the door that Nangong Yue approached.

  ”Qiao Tian Chang, move aside,” Nangong Yue attacked, directly aiming for his vital spots.

  ”I really admire your courage, giving the excuse to send out our troops to Ling Empire. Perhaps we should even thank you,” Qiao Tian Chang fought with Nangong Yue as he said with a face full of smiles.

  When Nangong Yue was trapped with the ministers, he naturally thought of leaving. He had been looking for an opportunity to leave, who knew that Qiao Tian Chang would discover him.

  He did not understand why his successful disguise would be easily discovered by others. There was Ning Meng Yao, then Qiao Tian Chang right now. Could it be that he was destined to fail in the hands of this couple?

  Marquis Ling looked at civil court officials from the Emperor’s faction all standing up, his face was pale, and he resented Qiao Tian Chang even more.

  ”Xiao Qi Feng, did you think you won? Wishful thinking,” He took out the secret order and a flare as he spoke.

  Before anyone could react, Marquis Ling shot out the flare. He then stood and waited. Everything would be fine as long as he was holding the secret order in his hands, he could still win.

  Xiao Qi Tian heard Marquis Ling’s words and looked at the item in his hand, he felt his face twitching. Maybe this person wasn’t here to rebel, but to make a joke of himself?

  ”Is it? Then we’ll wait and see,” Xiao Qi Feng looked at Marquis Ling with what seemed like a smile. There was no panic on his face, it was as if he was not worried about what would happen next.

  Nangong Yue already lost to Qiao Tian Chang when they were talking.

  Nangong Yue had always thought his skills were much better than Qiao Tian Chang, but he realized there was a huge gap between his skills and Qiao Tian Chang’s.

  Qiao Tian Chang directly used his clothing to tie him to the ground: “Did he send out the flare just now?”


  ”Yup, it should be soon,” Xiao Qi Feng narrowed his eyes, there was expectation and excitement in his eyes.

  Indeed, they heard sounds of horses galloping not long after. A fully armed soldier walked in. If Ning Meng Yao’s assassins were present and saw it, they would definitely be filled with shock.

  ”Greetings, your majesty.”
