I, the ninth grade county magistrate, scare the empress to tears at the beginning!

"High-level inner armor?"

There was a sound of surprise from the female messenger's mouth.

"It seems I can't kill you today. The mission failed, alas... I am speechless in the face of the prime minister's cultivation grace!"

Before he could be captured by the guards next to him, he bit the pill in his mouth, bleeding from all his orifices, and died on the spot.

"There are assassins escorting you!"

The guards, armed with weapons, hurriedly surrounded Jiang Linglong and protected her in the middle.

"I'm fine with you, please step back."

Jiang Linglong looked pale and tried to stay calm.

"The hairpin is forged from fine steel, specially processed, and the top is tempered with poison. The killers trained by the traitor Su Quan all use this as a weapon." After the guard inspected the hairpin, he asked in a panic: "Your Majesty, are you really Are you okay? Do you want to call the imperial doctor?"

At a distance of more than ten steps, the power of this hairpin is enough to kill a great master.

Jiang Linglong has trained hard along the way, but she has only reached the late stage of Xiantian and has not yet reached the level of a master. Logically speaking, surviving such an attack is simply a miracle!

"I'm really fine."

Jiang Linglong stretched her arms. Apart from some numbness in her chest, she didn't feel any pain.

After several confirmations, the guard felt relieved and said with lingering fear: "Your Majesty, you are really lucky to be alive. The kind of assassination just now, not to mention you, even if the grand master came, he could be assassinated by surprise. Death."

"Well, I'm wearing an inner armor called the Golden Silkworm Armor. Brother Lu gave it to me before setting off."

"Lord Lu really learned from the past and gave you a life-saving armor." The guards breathed a sigh of relief, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.

"Master, do you need your flattery? Why don't you take the body away quickly!"

At this time, Commander Zhao of the Black Tiger Army walked in and angrily scolded all his men. Gu Changfeng also came in with him.

The guards worked hurriedly, cleared the scene, and carried the body of the female assassin out.

"Your Majesty, I scared you!" Commander Zhao apologized.

"Brother Zhao, don't punish them. I was careless just now. I didn't verify her identity in advance. I thought she was from the queen mother."

"Your Majesty is very kind-hearted, which is really a blessing for the Great Zhou Dynasty." Commander Zhao's words were definitely not flattery. Compared with the late emperor and those domineering princes, Jiang Linglong treated their soldiers with sincerity and courtesy.

"This person is indeed from Su Quan. The thief Su Quan hates His Majesty so much that he sent someone to assassinate him. I will report this matter to the Young Master." Gu Changfeng inspected the murder weapon and came to a conclusion. Somewhat angry.

Jiang Linglong was more concerned about Lu Yuan, so she asked, "Is there any news from Brother Lu?"

Gu Changfeng replied: "Your Majesty, the young master has successfully returned from the Tomb of the Witch Ancestor. The King of Wu, Zhao Tuo, the sweeping monk of the Boruo Temple, the ancestor of the Lin family, the Master of the Butian Pavilion, the Old Man Butian, etc. were all wiped out, and they were all buried in the Tomb of the Witch Ancestor. . All forces in Lingnan have undergone a major reshuffle, and officials from various state capitals have sworn allegiance to your emperor's brother, Prince Rong Jiang Shen."

"Great! In this way, the three states of Lingnan are back under the control of the imperial court, and there is no need to worry about King Wu's rebellion. Hey, I told you a long time ago that with Brother Lu personally in charge, Lingnan doesn't have to worry."

Jiang Linglong thought of another person and continued to ask: "Brother Gu, last time you said that Shura Scholar and Langya Hou among the top ten masters went to Lingnan. Did they also die in the Tomb of the Witch Ancestor?" "Shura The scholar and the seventh lady fought alone for a day and a night, and were finally defeated by the lady and escaped."

"Wow, Sister Xuewei is so powerful, she actually defeated one of the top ten masters by herself." Jiang Linglong praised. She knew very well how powerful the top ten masters of Da Zhou were, because her deceased father was also ranked among the top ten masters.

"The Seventh Madam and the Shura Scholar are brothers and sisters of the same sect of the Shura Hall. They worship the Shura Hall Master as their teacher. The Shura Scholar is the senior brother and the Seventh Madam is the junior sister. More than ten years ago, the former Shura Hall Master decided to pass on the position of the Hall Master. Giving it to the Seventh Lady caused great dissatisfaction among the Shura scholars. A sneak attack killed the former Shura Hall Master, and a big battle broke out with the Seventh Lady."

"Ah? There is such a thing! I heard my father mention it before. The Shura scholar studied Confucianism and was extremely talented, but he was narrow-minded. He told me to be careful about this person in the future. He is indeed a bad guy. What happened next?"

"At that time, the Seventh Lady lost to Shura Scholar in that battle. This time, it was considered a successful revenge, and she fulfilled a wish in the Seventh Lady's heart."

"Hehe, Scholar Shura really overestimates his abilities. Sister Xuewei usually has Brother Lu to guide her in training, but she is no longer what she used to be." In Jiang Linglong's view, it is natural for Xiao Xuewei to win this battle. After all, she has someone behind her. Lu Yuan, "Where is the Langya Marquis of the Great Zhou Dynasty?"

Gu Changfeng suddenly smiled mysteriously and said, "Your Majesty, I brought someone back."

After finishing speaking, the sound of war horses neighing came from outside the house.

Then, a heroic female general walked in. She was wearing chainmail, a red cloak, a purple gold crown on her head, and holding a dark iron spear. If she wasn't Marquis Langya, one of the top ten masters of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who could she be?

After recognizing the person clearly, Jiang Linglong felt a little scared. She had heard that Marquis Langya was sent to Lingnan by Su Quan to deal with Lu Yuan together, so she immediately thought that the other party was sent by Su Quan to kill her.

But out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that there was no movement between Gu Changfeng and Commander Zhao, and he felt relieved.

"Your Majesty, Marquis Langya, is here to see you!"

Marquis Langya put the black iron spear at his feet, cupped his hands, and knelt down in obeisance. This was the highest etiquette for a king from a general of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"Get down quickly!"

Jiang Linglong took the initiative to stand up, personally stepped forward to help Langyahou up, and said with a smile: "Langyahou, the last time you met me was a few years ago. Do you have anything to do with me?"

Marquis Langya was impressed by the magnanimity of the new emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty and replied: "Your Majesty, I am willing to follow you to eliminate the traitor Su Quan, restore the orthodoxy of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and revive the majesty of the Great Zhou Dynasty!"

"Langya Hou, you said... you want to follow me?"

Jiang Linglong was extremely surprised.

This is the country-protecting general of the Great Zhou Dynasty. He has always maintained a neutral attitude before. He is the target that she and Su Quan will try their best to win over.

But at this moment, the other party actually came to be loyal to her, which made her laugh out of her dreams!

"Your Majesty, after Mr. Lu's enlightenment in Lingnan, I have thought clearly that it is my responsibility to help you complete the great cause of restoring the country, and you must not stay away from it. If the civil strife does not disappear, there will never be peace on the border."

Jiang Linglong took her hand and laughed heartily: "Okay, sister Zhu Xuan, you came just in time. Next, I am preparing to capture Youzhou, which has strong troops and horses. Your arrival is really a timely rain!" "

"Your Majesty, you calling me...sister is not in line with the etiquette of a monarch and his ministers."

"Hehe, you belong to Brother Lu, and besides, we are not in court now, so I will call you sister in private." (End of Chapter)
