Fukang County, which is outside the Baijia of Ningzhou City, is the only way to the 100,000 mountains, and it is also an important place for the Qiang people to trade with the Central Plains people in the mountains. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ Of course, public security can be imagined, where people solve problems not by the government, but by underground organizations.
More than ten miles to the northern suburbs of Fukang County, a manor stands alone, there are basically no other residents around, the high courtyard walls, and the towering sentry towers all show that this manor is not something that ordinary people can have.
A waning moon sometimes hid in the clouds, and sometimes it came out, so that the earth was also bright and dark, and the lights above the watchtower were flickering on and off, and the shadow of the sentinel was stretched long and cast on the ground beyond the courtyard wall.
The monotonous drum beat sounded, it was already the third watch, and the entire manor, except for the air death wind lanterns above the four-corner sentry tower, fell into darkness, and more than a dozen figures gathered silently under the courtyard wall along the dead end of the sentry tower's line of sight. After the first person made a gesture, several people scattered, one of them swam up the courtyard wall like a gecko, and the other raised a crossbow in his hand and aimed at the soldiers on a sentry tower on this side.
The man who went up first disappeared into the courtyard wall, and two more people outside began to climb up, and in a moment, all the people outside had infiltrated the manor.
And almost at the same time, on the other side of the house, another group of people also infiltrated the manor, but unlike the previous group of people who crossed the wall and entered, this group of people was answered, and the originally closed side door on the corner door of the manor was wide open, and more than a dozen people entered the house in a grand manner, and with a clear goal, obviously very familiar with this place, and went straight to their destination without hesitation.
The only daughter of Mata, the king of the Qiang tribe, Ma Lanhua, the princess of King Ning, was placed under house arrest here.
This is a small two-story building independent of other houses, with more than a dozen guards living downstairs and Ma Lanhua's bedroom upstairs, one in and one out of two rooms, inside is Ma Lanhua's bedroom, and outside, there are two female guards to take care of her. It was late at night, and the courtyard had fallen into silence, and on the second floor of the building hidden among the trees, a candle had burned off most of the candles, and tears fell on the candlestick, and from time to time there was a slight crackling sound.
Ma Lanhua sat at the table with a very thin iron chain connected to a steel ring on the wall above her ankles, which actually imprisoned her here, Ma Lanhua was tall and peachy, and she was originally extremely plump, but since this month, there have been great changes, her plump face has become extremely thin, her father died, JiΔo's son was taken away, she was imprisoned, and the powerful Qiang soldiers collapsed in an instant, divided into several forces, some of them were surrendered by King Ning and her husband, and the other part was unwilling to give in and was ruthlessly killed, only a few people fled for the road, His life and death are unknown.
Ma Lan has only one daughter, Ma Lanhua, and the Qiang people do not have the custom of passing on their sons and daughters, so Ma Lanhua has followed Ma Lan since she was a child, and she is no stranger to power struggles. It's just that what he never imagined was that King Ning would be so ruthless, and her husband would be so resolute, compared with the conspiracy of the Central Plains, although Mata is a heroic man among the Qiang people, but compared with King Ning, he is obviously too naΓ―ve.
The tears have long been dried, Ma Lanhua is disheartened as death, although her husband did not kill herself, but Ma Lanhua does not think that she can live for long, as long as she is alive, it will be a hidden danger that will break out at any time, obviously King Ning does not know that he is still alive, as long as he knows, it is the time of his life.
The husband will be soft-hearted when facing himself, but the father-in-law King Ning obviously won't.
There was a swishing sound of the door downstairs, Ma Lanhua frowned, although the voice was extremely soft, but in this silent night, it was extremely harsh. Ma Lanhua slowly plucked a hairpin from her head and held it tightly in her hand.
A few short muffled snorts, followed by something that was put down on the floor, Ma Lanhua, who was listening closely, was a little shocked, there were more than a dozen guards guarding him downstairs, none of them were vulgar, they were completely solved in such a short period of time, and the person who came was obviously not ordinary.
The floor trembled slightly, and the sound was almost inaudible, but under Ma Lanhua's concentrated concentration, subtle changes could still be perceived.
A female guard walked in lightly, a short knife unsheathed in her hand, "Princess, someone has come in." There was a vigilant glint in his eyes, but the short knife in his hand was against Ma Lanhua's vest.
The corners of Ma Lanhua's mouth twitched, and she smiled bitterly: "Don't be so nervous, these people are here to kill me, and I don't need you to do it for me." β
The female guard behind her swallowed with difficulty, obviously extremely nervous.
The door outside was pushed open, and another female guard let out an exclamation, and actually retreated back to the inner room step by step, the knife in her hand was halfway raised, but she didn't cut it down, because in front of him was a gold medal from King Ning's Mansion.
"I am here on the orders of His Royal Highness King Ning to handle official business!" A voice said in a low voice, "Lay down your weapons." β
The female guard hesitated.
"What's the matter, are you going to disobey?" The gold medal was raised even higher, "This is the personal order of His Royal Highness King Ning." β
After hesitating for a moment, the two female guards finally put down the weapons in their hands and bowed to the gold medal, "My subordinates have seen my lord." The moment he knocked his head, a sinister smile appeared at the corner of the person's mouth, and with a wave of his hand, several people behind him immediately pounced, the knife flashed twice, and the two female guards snorted, and fell on the floor, blood flowed down from the body, and flowed down the floor to Ma Lanhua's feet.
"Princess, offended!" The person who came stepped forward, walked in front of Ma Lanhua, looked at her calmly, and said, "We are also on orders." He took out a delicate vial from his bosom, "This is a peacock gall, after the princess takes it, she can go to another world without pain." β
Ma Lanhua glared at each other, her eyes were full of hatred, but the person who came was not afraid, she just looked at Ma Lanhua calmly, "Princess Shi, leave some dignity for yourself, if you let someone fill it, it will be a little unsightly." β
Ma Lanhua didn't say anything, but her gaze gradually turned gloomy.
"Please, princess, this is an order personally issued by His Royal Highness King Ning. You are the one who should have died a long time ago, and you know it. β
"That's what I said, I'm afraid it's not true!" There was a sudden sound of yin measurement outside, and the people who came were shocked, and turned around suddenly, but there was a continuous crossbow sound in his ears, and all that flashed in front of him were snow-bright crossbow arrows, and the sound of swishing was endless, almost at the same time, upstairs and downstairs, there was a scream at the same time.
The man who was the leader immediately turned around, unsheathed the steel knife in his hand, and swung it at Ma Lanhua, who was sitting at the table, even if he died, he would kill Ma Lanhua first.
Ma Lanhua had already stood up, the tiptoes of the unchained jumped, the brocade stool jumped up, flew towards the man, the knife flashed, the brocade stool broke into two, just cut open the stool, but the man's body froze, Ma Lanhua had already pounced, the iron hairpin in his hand was inserted in his heart, the steel knife in his hand was still held high, but the strength of the whole body retreated from the body like a tide. With a pop, the man fell to the ground.
"Miss Ma is so skilled!" Later, one of the people who was obviously the leader of the group applauded and laughed. "It is worthy of being the pearl of the 100,000 mountains, the princess of the king of the Qiang tribe."
"Who are you?" Ma Lanhua looked at the group of people behind her vigilantly.
"You can call me Su Hu." The person who came walked up to Ma Lanhua with a smile, "We are here to save you, without the slightest malice." β
With a wave of his hand, a mΓ©ng-faced man behind him walked over, squatted in front of Ma Lanhua's feet, and took out something from his arms.
"Miss Ma, let him unlock the lock for you, there is already an alarm outside, we have to leave immediately, otherwise there will be trouble."
"Who are you?" Ma Lanhua shrank her feet, "If you don't make it clear, I won't go with you." β
Su Hu shrugged helplessly, "Miss Ma, it doesn't hurt to tell you, we are the Dingzhou Supervision Yuan, and we were ordered to rescue the girl, and we have no malice towards the girl, and the girl has also seen it, if we come a little later, you will be fragrant and misty, and you will return to the west with your life." β
"It's the one who Li is watching!" Ma Lanhua suddenly realized, and then said hatefully: "You guys are not a good thing. β
Su Hu was a little annoyed, "Miss Ma, let's save you, even if you don't thank you, you can't speak ill of you." Hurry up and let us unlock You, do you really want to die here? β
There was already an alarm outside, Ma Lanhua stretched out her feet, the man was a good means, three times five divided by two, and then opened the lock, Ma Lanhua finally got back her freedom.
"Miss Ma, let's go, the retreat has been arranged, and we will escort you to a safe place."
Ma Lanhua didn't say a word, and followed this group of people, but she understood in her heart that Li Qing sent someone to save herself, naturally not because she was pitiful, but because she took a fancy to her own use value, and let herself live, so as to cause chaos for King Ning, but if you can live, you will have the opportunity to return to the 100,000 mountains, and if you can live, you can avenge your father, use it, what is the big deal.
When the guards in the manor surrounded this small building, Su Hu, Ma Lanhua and their party had already left the manor and disappeared into the night.
On the third day, when King Ning's Mansion, Shang Haibo and King Ning were making final deliberations on some details, Zhong Ziqi walked in violently, and behind him, some guards beckoned several corpses to follow.
"What are you doing here?" King Ning exclaimed.
Zhong Ziqi first saluted King Ning, and then turned to look at Shang Haibo, "Mr. Shang, please give His Royal Highness King Ning a satisfactory answer on this matter." With a wave of his hand, the guard ripped off the white cloth that MΓ©ng had placed on the corpses, and several corpses covered with arrows immediately appeared in front of King Ning and Shang Haibo.
"W-what does this mean?" Shang Haibo asked puzzled.
"Mr. Shang will not understand?" Zhong Ziqi sneered: "Then let me tell you, these dead people belong to the Ministry Division, and they are the spies of your Ministry Division in our Ningzhou, Mr. Shang, do you know where they died, they died in the place where the crown princess was imprisoned, and they were killed by the guards there with random arrows, but their accomplices disappeared with the princess." The men I sent were also slaughtered. Zhong Ziqi said angrily.
King Ning was furious, "Mr. Shang, what does this mean, since you have made an agreement with me, why did the staff take away Ma Lanhua again, do you want to start a new business?" β
Shang Haibo also changed his face, I believe that Zhong Ziqi will never mistake the identities of these people, could it be that Yuan Fang really took away Ma Lanhua? Xiang Ning Wang arched his hand and said: "Your Highness, I really don't know about this matter, and it is still uncertain whether it is the hand of Lord Yuan Fang, but I promise His Highness here that if it is really the Ministry of Justice who took away Ma Lanhua, I will definitely not let this woman appear in the 100,000 Mountains alive!" βοΌγ
