Three black lines suddenly slipped from the back of Nangong Jie's head. With her mother supporting her, her life would be very difficult in the future... Concubine Duoduo and Concubine Heping were talking and laughing when suddenly a strong smell of alcohol hit her face.

After taking a closer look, it turned out to be Nangong Ao, whose face was red from drinking!

Without saying a word, Nangong Ao reached out and grabbed Duoduo's hand and said, "You woman, come with me!"

With that said, he forcefully pulled the person out of his seat. Nangong Jie hugged Duoduo's waist and said angrily: "Brother Er Huang, you've drunk too much!"

"Shut up, this is none of your business. If you mind your own business, I'll beat you up!" Nangong Ao yelled at Nangong Jie.

Nangong Jie said with an angry face: "Let her go!"

Nangong Ao sneered: "What a joke, I'll let you go if you ask me to? Who is she to you?"

Nangong Jie could no longer bear it and said, "I say it again, let her go!"

Duoduo panicked, and suddenly broke away from the two people's pull, scolding: "What are you doing, are you crazy? Tonight is the emperor's birthday banquet, are you deliberately trying to embarrass the royal family?"

"Pa..." There was a sound, and Duoduo was suddenly slapped on the face, which made her feel hot and uncomfortable.

"How outrageous! How dare you, the little butler of the palace, talk to my son like that!" The attacker was very aggressive and arrogant.

Except for Concubine Yan, there is no one else who dares to slap the emperor's gold-medal butler casually in this imperial garden.

"Mom, go away, it's none of your business!" Nangong Ao reached out to grab Duoduo again.

Nangong Jie finally couldn't bear it any longer. He raised his fist and punched Nangong Ao on the chest... "Crash..." After being beaten, Nangong Ao couldn't stand upright. He leaned back and was crushed to the ground.

On the dining table, the entire table was knocked over, and all kinds of fruits and dishes fell on the floor.

"You dare to hit me, you are seeking death!" Nangong Ao cursed, stood up and rushed towards Nangong Jie.

Suddenly, someone grabbed Nangong Ao by the collar of his clothes and pulled him back, and a cup of cold tea was poured on his face!

Nangong Ao raised his fist and was about to hit someone, but suddenly he was stunned for a moment, his legs went weak, and he knelt on the ground and cried: "Father..."

Duoduo got goosebumps for a while, that bitch could actually pretend to cry and pretend to be pitiful. It was really disgusting.

"Someone, take the second prince out."

"It's the emperor!" Several guards strode forward, set up Nangong Ao and walked out to the imperial garden gate.

"Your Majesty..." Concubine Yan said with tears streaming down her face: "It was a few of them who ganged up to bully me. Ao'er just said a few words and was knocked to the ground... Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me.

…”

Duoduo's scalp was numb again. Damn it, she could tell such a loss. She finally knew the truth about Chu Lei Burial. The evildoer complained first!

"That's enough." Nangong Ming waved his sleeves, stood in the middle of the crowd with his hands behind his hands, and said without looking at Concubine Yan: "Concubine Yan, as the empress of the palace, you have to pay attention to your image when you speak. As long as you apologize to Miss Duoduo,

I won’t pursue today’s matter. Next time, the door of Qingling Palace will be open for you at any time, hum!”

"Your Majesty...I..." Concubine Yan had a frightened expression on her face. She wanted to say something else, but found that Nangong Ming didn't even look at her, so she could only say in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I was...offended just now."

Duoduo actually wanted to slap him back, but in order to save the emperor's face, he said: "Well, now that I've apologized, forget it. If I continue to struggle, the emperor will laugh at me for being so petty."

"Well, hahahaha, Duoduo is a person who understands righteousness. I admire it very much. Come on!"

"Your Majesty, my servant is here."

Nangong Ming turned around and walked a few steps, whispered a few instructions, and then returned to sit on the emperor's throne, drinking wine and completely ignoring what happened just now.

The emperor's strange behavior made Duoduo feel very strange and made her feel very uneasy.

At this time, the eunuch next to the emperor spoke: "To all the concubines and girls present, the emperor has decreed that everyone should go to the Palace of National Essence to pay homage to the myth of our mother clan of the Southern Dynasty, so that you can understand the women's virtues of our Southern Dynasty. Now

Let’s set off, everyone, follow me!”

The eunuch said and hurriedly walked ahead to clear the way.

Since it is the emperor's imperial edict, how can we not respect it?

All the women at the banquet had no choice but to hurry up and follow the father-in-law out of the imperial garden and towards the Guochui Hall.

Duoduo asked in a low voice: "May I ask my father-in-law, why did the emperor suddenly have such a thought?"

The eunuch said: "I don't know. Please be careful what you say in the future. As slaves, we only need to concentrate on doing what the master has ordered. If we speculate on the holy will, we will be beheaded."

Khan... Duoduo was speechless for a while. If this eunuch is worthy of his job, he might as well die.

After a while, many women followed the eunuchs to the Guocui Hall, but found that the door of the Guocui Hall was tightly closed.

"Hey, everyone, wait a moment. I have to find someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get the key before I can open the door. Please wait a moment." The eunuch said and walked to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Duoduo was secretly shocked: If the emperor had already asked them to admire the matrilineal culture of the National Essence Hall, they should have been prepared for it. But why is this door closed?

The only explanation is that the Royal Garden may be facing huge danger, and the emperor made an impromptu decision in order not to harm the women and children.

I felt that the emperor's words and deeds were a bit strange when I was at the competition today, and his behavior was even more erratic tonight. What on earth did he want to do?

The more Duoduo thought about it, the more something was wrong, so he turned around and ran back!

"Duoduo, Duoduo... the imperial edict cannot be violated!" Concubine Ping chased her for a few steps, but when she saw that she couldn't stop her, she stood there and stamped her feet anxiously.

Many officials present, including princes from various vassal states, thought that sending women to pay homage to matrilineal culture was the emperor's whim. Only Nangong Jie seemed to sense the danger.

Murderous intent has already come from the ground... "Father..." Nangong Jie walked over and was about to express his ominous premonition when he heard the sound of "Whoosh!", and the arrow that had been piercing the clouds had already broken through the air and hit.

It flew past his ears and shot straight towards his father.

Nangong Ming didn't even dodge, he suddenly stretched out two fingers and pinched hard!

The long black cloud-penetrating arrow was caught between his two fingers!

"Guard you!" Five or six inner court guards shouted and rushed towards the emperor. Unfortunately, before they could get close to the emperor, they were shot through the head by several long arrows, and they all fell to the ground dead!

"Everyone is on alert!" Nangong Jie shouted, and at the same time several jumps landed next to Nangong Ming, and he asked nervously: "Father, we have been surrounded, what should we do?"

Nangong Ming looked at his son beside him, with a little admiration in his eyes. It is undeniable that Nangong Jie has become much more courageous than before since he returned from his disappearance.

Especially the bravery and tenacity shown in the ring made Nangong Ming start to look at this son in a new light.

Nangong Ming did not answer his son's question, but gently broke the long arrow in his hand, flicked it away, and the broken half of the arrow swung straight into an apple ten meters away on the ground, and said loudly: "

You are a bunch of rats, just do some sneaky things, come out, I have been waiting for you!"

Almost all the men in the imperial garden ran behind Nangong Ming at the same time, including the warriors of the vassal state. In their eyes, Nangong Ming was a god. If the sky fell, he would hold it up.

"Hahahaha... Your Majesty is indeed brave and invincible. I'm glad to meet you!"

A group of thieves, wearing black clothes and covering their faces with black cloths, with only two eyes exposed, appeared from all corners of the imperial garden. There were probably dozens of them.

As soon as the princes and princes of the vassal country saw the thirty-odd people in the opposite party, they jumped out from behind Nangong Ming one by one and said with incomparable bravery: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, we are here and we will never let you get hurt at all."

.”

Nangong Mingze said: "You underestimate them too much. As the saying goes, they come with bad intentions, but these people can sneak into my palace without being noticed. I think, except for the traitors, their

His skills will also be quite impressive."

"Humph, Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. I don't believe they can go to heaven or earth!" Hua Cai from the Huayue Kingdom finished speaking and pulled out the sword from her waist and rushed towards the black group.

"Kill!" The prince of the Snow Kingdom also shouted and started to kill.

The others looked at each other, and in the end they all copied the guy and joined in the fight.

"Come back here!" Nangong Ming shouted, but those royal princes thought that with their numbers and the presence of some inner court guards, it would not be a problem to chop off the heads of those twenty or thirty people.

The leading man in black looked at the group of princes and grandsons who had only been enjoying themselves in the palace for many years and had only learned one and a half moves. They rushed over menacingly. He curved his lips with a cold smile and said, "You're here just in time, brother."

No one of them will be left alive!"

Just when this massacre was about to come to an end, there was suddenly a drum sound of "dong dong dong dong...". The drum sound was deep and powerful. It was obvious that the drummer used his inner strength when beating.

It shocked everyone.

The princes and grandsons also suddenly stopped moving forward and looked up in the direction of the sound. They saw a woman with an outstanding figure holding two big mallets and beating them hard on the Drum Tower in the Imperial Garden.

"It's the housekeeper!" Nangong Jie knew at a glance that the woman on the drum tower was her wife Qian Duoduo.

Seeing that their goal had been achieved, Duoduo shouted down: "Don't be fooled, please retreat quickly. The target of those thieves is not the emperor, but you royal princes. If you think about it, you will understand. If it is the emperor who wants to be killed,

, why don’t you find an opportunity to assassinate? It’s obvious that they want to take advantage of the birthday banquet to kill you all!”

After Duoduo finished speaking, he jumped up, spread out his arms, and landed steadily in front of the group of princes and buddies. He said: "This group of people has been attacked. If you are impulsive, you will only suffer a loss. The Royal Forest Army will arrive soon."

, it won’t be too late to treat them when the time comes!”

A man in black became so angry that he suddenly drew his black-bone long bow, aimed at the woman who ruined their good deeds, and then let go with two fingers!

There was a "buzz" sound, and the arrow on the bow was snatched away just a second before he fired.

"Young Master, you!"

The person who took the long arrow said coldly: "This woman cannot be killed."

"Why? If it weren't for her, we would have succeeded!"

"Don't ask so many questions about why. If anyone kills this woman by mistake, I will let someone bury her with her!" After the leader finished speaking, he suddenly attacked and rushed towards the group of princes and grandsons.

"Brothers, kill!"

Mr. Huang and Sun were unconvinced at first, but now they are fine. The other party is coming to kill them. Is it possible that they still want to escape?

"Hmph, a bunch of trash!" The leader raised his sword and used a ground-breaking slash. With a "clang", a young man's long sword was shaken off his hands and fell to the ground.
