At this moment, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Shen Ling, and some people even covered their mouths tremblingly.

"How so? Why would the Assassins kill the Lord of Phoenix?"

"I'll just say how many assassins want to kill us, it turns out that the assassins' target is not us at all."

"Who has the Phoenix County Lord provoked, he can make the other party work so hard that he will even kill the Phoenix County Lord at the cost of closing the mountain."

Everyone learned that their lives were threatened because of Shen Ling, and seeing that Shen Ling's gaze lived up to their previous friendliness, even the merchant girls who had been helped by Shen Ling stood aside with wandering eyes, not knowing what to say.

Shen Ling saved them, but if the person who set the fire was to kill Shen Ling, then they were completely implicated.

When Xiao Qianqian saw Shen Ling's situation, she laughed crazy in her heart.

She shouted loudly, "The truth of the matter is still told to everyone, everyone quickly surround Shen Ling, don't let her run away!"

After Xiao Qianqian shouted, everyone came back to their senses.

Most of them didn't know what to do, and after listening to Xiao Qianqian's words, they subconsciously followed Xiao Qianqian's words and scattered to surround Shen Ling.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the dark guard took out a bamboo whistle from his bosom and put it to his mouth.

Although these people are all well-known figures in Kyoto, it won't do any good to offend them, but for the sake of the county lord's safety, it can only be so.

The dark guard took a deep breath, and just as he was about to blow the bamboo whistle vigorously to summon the other secret guards, Shen Ling interrupted him.

"Wait, don't blow yet."

The breath that the dark guard had just puffed up instantly stuck in his throat, and he couldn't get up or down, making him cough several times.

Seeing this, Xiao Qianqian's eyes flashed with a vicious cold light.

She shouted, "Look, everyone, this person and Shen Ling are in the same group, seeing that the matter has been revealed, they want to kill us!"

The secret guard coughed for a long time, and when he heard Xiao Qianqian's words, he raised his head instantly, and the secret guard, who had always had no expression and weak feelings, couldn't allow others to slander Shen Ling like this.

As early as Muyang County, when Shen Ling stabbed himself in the heart in order to save Jing Xi, all the secret guards recognized Shen Ling in their hearts, not to mention that Shen Ling is still the favorite person in Jing Xi's heart.

If this is for the lord to know that because of himself, the county lord has been slandered, then I don't know how to punish him afterwards.

"You're talking nonsense!" The dark guard's face was pale, and he glared at Xiao Qianqian angrily.

He just wanted to call someone to come over to protect Shen Ling, and when necessary, he took Shen Ling to break out of the encirclement, and he didn't mean to kill.

Xiao Qianqian was glared at by the dark guard's angry eyes, and she didn't feel scared at all, but said even more fiercely: "Look, he was annoyed and angry when I said it!"

"He is Shen Ling's person, this must be what Shen Ling meant!"

"You're spewing blood!"

The dark guard has always done things in secret, and the most he does on weekdays is to fight and kill, and he often faces mortal enemies.

Xiao Qianqian looked at the dark guard and said that she couldn't say a few words, and caught the secret guard who couldn't speak, and splashed dirty water wildly there.

"You first wanted to blow the whistle to kill us, and then I was annoyed that I had a plan, so many pairs of eyes watching, what do you have to justify."

The dark guard's face flushed, but he didn't know how to refute it.

Shen Ling's side was surrounded by a cold aura, and there was a cold light flashing in his eyes that were as cold as the moon.

She walked to the side of the dark guard and patted the dark guard's shoulder, which strangely calmed the dark guard's angry heart because of Xiao Qianqian.

Shen Ling glanced at the people who surrounded her, and their eyes were like a cold wind sweeping by, and the hearts of the people who swept her were cold.

"You are all powerless women, and there is no maid around you who knows martial arts, if I really want to kill, none of you who are doing it can escape!"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, yes,

Shen Ling has two maidservants who know martial arts, and there are such secret guard masters around her, if she really wants to do it, she can't stand there and let them surround her.

Seeing that everyone was shaken, Xiao Qianqian snorted coldly and said deliberately: "You're right, you have these subordinates who know martial arts, and it's easy to kill someone, so that's how Gao Xiuqin was killed by you."

"As I said, I didn't kill Gao Xiuqin, someone else killed her."

Shen Ling glanced at Xiao Qianqian coldly, and her displeasure spread unabashedly.

"The concubine has seen you kill Gao Xiuqin with her own eyes, since you said that you didn't kill anyone, then show evidence."

"I really don't have any evidence to prove that I didn't kill Gao Xiuqin, but if I killed Gao Xiuqin and was bumped into by the concubine, if I didn't want the matter to be revealed, I should have killed the concubine as soon as possible, but why didn't the concubine die."

Shen Ling moved her gaze to Lin Fengzhi's body, and everyone followed suit, and they also had doubts in their hearts.

Lin Fengzhi had already thought of a countermeasure in her heart, and said without hesitation: "Of course, it was the palace that asked for help in time, and everyone rushed over, so you didn't have a chance to start."

The enemy of the enemy is a friend, and now Xiao Qianqian has no intention of caring about the previous grievances with Lin Fengzhi, she just wants to join forces with Lin Fengzhi and dispose of Shen Ling first.

Xiao Qianqian then chimed in: "That is, if it weren't for the wit of the noble concubine Niangniang, who made a voice in time and called us all over, I'm afraid that I would have encountered your poisonous hands by now."

Lin Fengzhi then took out a handkerchief and pretended to wipe his eyes, "Speaking of which, I would like to thank you all very much, if it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't be able to stand here and talk to you."

Shen Ling looked at the two people who were playing with each other, and the look in his eyes became even colder.

"Although the main hall is not far from here, the time you have come from the main hall is enough for me to kill the concubine, but the concubine is standing here safe and sound, haven't you ever suspected anything?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone showed thoughtful expressions, staring at Lin Fengzhi, and some smart people had already found the loophole in Lin Fengzhi's words.

Shen Ling looked over and raised her eyebrows, "Guifei Niangniang, you might as well explain."

"This ......" Lin Fengzhi's face was a little stiff, and he reluctantly explained, "Who knows if you suddenly had a conscience and didn't act in time to let this palace escape."

Seeing that Lin Fengzhi was still lying, Shen Ling sneered.

"Everyone, please look at ......," Shen Ling said, pointing to her injured and bleeding arm, and turning around in place so that everyone could clearly see the wound on her arm.
