s, both understanding each other's intentions. After a slight nod to each other, Ning'er took Xiao Hong towards the rockery while Shou'er remained by An Xuetang's side without moving an inch.An Xuetan...The previous moment, Li Yi was still worried about Sun Gao Ting's safety and rushed towards him to protect him. But the next instant, his chest suddenly went numb, a sharp object pierced through, the overwhelming force sent his body flying forward, instantly splattering a cloud of blood, like the setting sun shining on withering flowers.
Before anyone could react, Li Yi had already gone stiff with disbelief, his eyes wide open as he collapsed onto the ground.
"Lee Yi!"
Son Gato seeing this, there was nothing else he didn't understand. An Xue Tang's tactic of feinting an attack elsewhere while launching a real one here was truly masterful!
Li Yi's fall stimulated Sun GaoTing. He pointed his arrow at An XueTang and shot without hesitation.
This was also within An Xue Tang's expectations, so she wasn't afraid of who would take the stage and might harm her own people.
But at this moment, Mo Yunjing's face wasn't good. When Sun Gao Ting let loose an arrow, he simply waved his hand and the arrow immediately changed direction, flying back towards Sun Gao Ting.
Seeing Mo Yunjing's sullen face, An Xuetang felt guilty and touched her nose. Even Ning'er and the others, along with Yunliu, finally understood An Xuetang's actions. Now that they saw the Northern Border King's expression, they all silently chose to stand a little further away from their princess.
To prevent Sun Gaoting from playing more tricks, Ning'er and the others focused their attention on him. However, at this moment, Sun Gaoting was no longer concerned with doing anything to An Xuetang.
Even though Sun Gao Ting was quite skilled, he was still grazed by a feather arrow deflected by Mo Yun Jing.
He was incredibly shocked by Mo Yunjing's powerful inner strength, and at the same time, he worried if he could even leave the capital of Tianba Kingdom.
As it turns out, Mo Yunjing's threat to the Xuan country's third prince was not empty talk. He truly had the ability to make this group of people... disappear without a trace.
Thinking of this, Sun Gaoting's heart felt inexplicably flustered. He didn't dare to continue attacking An Xuetang.
Mo Yunjing walked to An Xuetang's side with a gloomy expression, his deep black eyes fixed on him. "Is this your plan To feint an attack elsewhere, catch them off guard, sacrifice yourself to save others, An Xuetang, you are truly capable today!"
So, although she proposed that both sides should be targets for practice, from the beginning, she wanted to provoke Sun Gaoting into anger, making him target her instead. In other words, no matter who was the target today, they would be safe.
But instead, she hadn't considered if Sun Gao Ting's internal energy was strong enough that she might not be able to dodge his attack at all.
She is selfless to others, but she always does things that could put people in danger.
He really...didn't know what to do with her!
Mo Yunjing stopped before An Xuetang, remembering the things she had done that put him in danger. His fingers unconsciously tightened slightly around the edge of his clothes, and his seemingly calm eyes stared at her.
"Ajing."
An Xuetang could feel his anger and fear. At this moment, her pitiful eyes looked at him, softly calling out to him.
Seeing that he was still indifferent, she immediately grabbed his arm and whispered sweetly:
"I know I was wrong. When I get back, whatever punishment Ah Jing wants to give me, I'll accept it. Right now, please don't be angry, okay"
Looking at her like this, Mo Yunjing was truly helpless. His heart was as gentle as a still pond, not even a ripple of annoyance.
He let out a sigh, reaching from her other hand to take the bow and toss it to Yunliu standing beside them.
The emperor and his retinue were now regaining their composure, all staring at An Xue Tang with strange expressions. If saying that An Xue Tang had accurately struck the Xuan Guo's third prince Zhao Li with a teacup on the main hall was an accident, then this time, her arrow piercing through the chest of the Lan Guo deputy general, no one dared to say it was luck!
No one dared to underestimate the North Frontier Princess, who was rumored to have come from the countryside.
The Emperor looked at An Xue Tang with an unreadable expression for several moments, then shifted his gaze to Li Yi who was being carried out. Finally, he spoke, "The outcome is decided. General Sun, are you satisfied"
Sun Gao Ting glared fiercely at An Xue Tang. His deputy was his most powerful right-hand man, but he never expected him to be so easily killed by this woman with a single arrow.
At this point, he had to believe that their Majesty's instructions before his arrival were no mere coincidence.
Their Majesty told him to be wary of Mo Yunjing, but he mustn't underestimate An Xuetang either. It turns out An Xuetang has this kind of ability!
An Xuetang looked at Sun Gaoting's hateful expression, wishing she could kill her. She curled her lips and smiled, "General Sun, are you looking at this concubine with something to say"
..."
Sun GaoTing clenched his fists. He was indeed angry and furious, but in front of so many people and Mo YunJing, he couldn't do anything to An XueTang. He could only grit his teeth and reply, "No."
"That's fine. But General Sun mustn't forget his promise. Now that we've eaten and compared ourselves, perhaps General Sun could spare a moment to talk"
She didn't enter the palace to waste time with these people. Besides news about Mo Junyi, she didn't care much about General Sun or General Li. Those political affairs, no matter how difficult they were, always had Mo Yunjing handling them. Right now, the only thing she worried and cared about was Mo Junyi.
His own deputy had been killed by An Xuetang, so Sun Gaoting naturally didn't want to just agree to let An Xuetang easily get what she wanted to know.
Moyun Jing's gaze was so intense that he couldn't ignore it, and he eventually agreed to chat with them.
Besides, he didn't dare to put on airs in front of Mo Yunjing, after all, his mission to the Tianba Kingdom was also for Mo Yunjing.
The emperor knew they had something to say, but he didn't know what it was. He wanted to go with them at this moment, but unexpectedly Sun Guoting spoke first:
"Your Majesty, could you please provide a quiet place for me and the King of Beijiang There are some things I wish to discuss privately with him and his Queen. As Your Majesty knows, our Blue Nation's Emperor had a close relationship with the King of Beijiang. This time, my arrival in Tianba Kingdom's capital is because our Emperor has some matters he wishes to discuss with the King."
Although the emperor was displeased, seeing Mo Yunjing's reluctance to have him present, he waved his hand, indicating his agreement, and had them escorted to a relatively quiet ceremonial hall.
He, meanwhile, went to another place with the eunuchs to wait.
……
As soon as An Xue Tang settled down, after the eunuch left Yishi Hall, she looked at Sun Gao Ting expressionlessly, "Speak. What do you know"
Sun Gao-ting raised an eyebrow, he didn't answer An Xue-tang's question, instead he deliberately teased An Xue-tang, "The Princess of Beijang really cares about that Prince."
"...“
An Xuetang truly had no leisure to argue with him. She drew a porcelain bottle from her waist and said languidly, "This princess despises being manipulated. Therefore... General Sun doesn't want to die here in vain, so he might as well tell us what he knows sooner rather than later." the invitation to the Queen Dowager.He had almost forgotten that tomorrow, the Ye Residence and Anle Marquis's Residence were to hold wedding celebrations.After all, before today, their princess woul...
