More than a thousand city defense troops arrived quickly, and the firelight illuminated the city gate like daylight.
The Crown Prince of Guizhou raised his head and looked at the expressionless face under the firelight. Suddenly a chill came from his heart. He subconsciously supported his body and took a few steps back. A porcelain bottle fell out of his sleeve.
Gongsun Ying leaned over and picked up the porcelain bottle. After opening it, he put it under his nose and smelled it, but he didn't smell anything.
As if she had thought of something, she slowly tilted the porcelain bottle, looked at the colorless liquid pouring out of the bottle, and said in shock: "Drunk to death..."
Tangning looked at her and asked, "What is drunken life and dream of death?"
"A strange poison from the Ten Thousand Gu Sect." Gongsun Ying looked at him, took two steps back, and explained carefully: "Those who are poisoned by this poison will fall asleep for nearly a day and then wake up after one day. Even if they wake up, they will not wake up.
When you wake up from a dream, you can only let others do what you want. After a day like this, you will fall asleep again until you die in your sleep..."
Tangning looked at her and asked, "Is there any solution?"
Gongsun Ying didn't dare to look into his eyes, so he looked away and said, "This poison... has no cure."
Tangning took a deep breath, clenched and unclenched her fists, and then clenched them again. She looked at the Crown Prince of Guizhou and asked in a hoarse voice, "Did you intoxicate her?"
Tang Ning's voice was not loud, but her breath was a little disturbed.
The Crown Prince of Guizhou looked at him and felt the chill grow stronger. He got up from the ground and ran in the direction of Bai Jin. As he ran, he shouted loudly: "Bai Jin, save me!"
Bai Jin stood there in a daze, still not recovering from the news just now.
Old Zheng picked up Prince Qian's collar and threw him over again.
"Chen Zhou." Tang Ning sniffed and said, "According to the Chen Law, what is the crime for conspiracy and rebellion?"
"Sir, according to the law, the crime of treason will be punished by all the nine tribes." Chen Zhou stepped forward and handed over Shang Fang's sword with both hands.
Tang Ning drew out Shang Fang's sword, looked at Gongsun Ying, and asked, "Chief Gongsun, are you coming, or am I?"
Gongsun Ying subconsciously took a step back. In any case, the Crown Prince of Guizhou was also a descendant of the Liang royal family. She could follow King Wu to start a rebellion, but she could not and did not dare to kill the Crown Prince of Guizhou with her own hands.
"Then let me do it." Tang Ning held her sword and walked towards the Crown Prince of Guizhou.
The Crown Prince of Guizhou looked extremely pale, kept retreating, and said in a trembling voice: "You, you dare to kill me..."
Bai Jin finally came to his senses, looked at Gongsun Ying, and said loudly: "Gongsun Ying, save the prince!"
Gongsun Ying's body trembled, and he subconsciously took a step forward. Tangning looked back, her steps suddenly stopped, and she finally stood where she was, never taking a step forward again.
Tangning raised her sword, and someone suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Lao Zheng looked at him and asked: "If I kill him like this, can the court explain it to me?"
"Fuck them!" With Old Zheng holding his right wrist, Tang Ning's eyes were red and he growled lowly from his throat. He let go of his right hand and Shang Fang's sword fell from his right hand. He took it with his left hand. In the red firelight, he suddenly
A silver light appeared.
"stop!"
"You dare!"
…
Bai Jin and the old man roared at the same time.
The Crown Prince of Guizhou had already run a few steps, but suddenly stopped. He lowered his head and looked at the half of the sword that had passed through his chest. He looked back at Tang Ning and raised an arm to point at him, but he only raised it halfway.
Falling to the ground suddenly.
Gongsun Ying looked at the Prince of Guizhou, who was lying on the ground without a sound, and felt that everything seemed unreal.
The King of Guizhou died, the prince also died, and no one would compete with the King of Wu for the throne. This should have been something she would wake up from even dreaming about.
But with Prince Qian's body lying here, she didn't feel the slightest joy, but instead felt a little scared in her heart.
She raised her head and glanced at Tang Ning, then couldn't help but take two steps back.
Bai Jin stared blankly ahead, looking at the bloody sword tip that had passed through Prince Qian's chest, and suddenly felt empty in his heart.
More than ten years of faith and persistence suddenly collapsed at this moment. King Qian died of illness, his son died, and the meaning of the existence of Tiantianju, her design in Jiangnan, and all the hard work and efforts of the past ten years were all in vain...
The strange thing was that when she looked at Tang Ning, she didn't feel much hatred in her heart. At this time, another smile appeared in her heart.
All kinds of complicated emotions engulfed her, leaving her stunned and motionless.
"Your Majesty..."
"You, you deserve to die!"
The old man's eyes widened, he picked up a long knife from the ground, and rushed towards Tang Ning. Chen Zhou glanced at him, waved his hand, and more than a dozen arrows shot out from behind him, engulfing the old man.
"Walk!"
The middle-aged man grabbed Gongsun Ying's shoulders, put her on a horse, and galloped towards the city gate. Old Zheng glanced at her, but made no move. A defender general led hundreds of defenders in pursuit.
.
Tangning stood there, feeling like something was filling her mind and wanting to explode, but it seemed like there was only a blank space.
"My condolences." Lao Zheng sighed, patted his shoulder, turned around, and couldn't bear to look any further.
"Give way, give way..." At this moment, a voice came from behind the defenders.
Old Zheng was startled and looked over.
Su Mei squeezed out from the defenders and ran to Tang Ning. She looked at him anxiously and asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you injured?"
Tangning's body trembled, she slowly turned her head to look at her, and touched her face in disbelief. It was soft and slippery and felt great.
His hand moved downward, touched her shoulder, touched her waist, touched her...
Seeing that he was fine, Su Mei opened his hand and said angrily: "Where are you touching..."
Tangning looked at her in surprise and asked, "Are you okay?"
"What can happen to me?" Su Mei looked up at him and saw something glistening in his eyes, and asked in surprise: "Are you crying?"
"This is not important..." Tangning wiped her eyes randomly, grabbed her shoulders, and asked, "Weren't you poisoned? What kind of drunkenness did you suffer from?"
Su Mei rolled her eyes and asked, "Am I that stupid?"
Tangning looked her up and down, and after confirming that she was fine, she finally felt relieved.
Only then did he realize something. Looking at the dead Prince Qian lying on the ground, he said in a hoarse voice, somewhat speechless: "You... are sick!"
Gongsun Ying stood there blankly, looking at Su Mei with a look of disbelief on his face.
Lao Zheng wiped his butcher's knife with some distress, glanced at the Crown Prince of Guizhou lying on the ground, shook his head and said: "What a sin..."
Su Mei finally noticed the Crown Prince of Guizhou on the ground and was shocked: "The Crown Prince is dead!"
She looked at Tang Ning suddenly and asked, "What happened just now? Why is the prince dead? Where are my master and the others?"
Tangning pursed her lips and said, "There was a misunderstanding just now..."
Su Mei looked at him and asked, "What next?"
"Then the prince died..."
…
After experiencing the ups and downs of emotions, Tang Ning felt complicated and unspeakable, and needed some quiet time. Su Mei was about to ask again, but he reached out and blocked her mouth.
Tangning shook her head tiredly and said, "If anything happens, we'll talk about it when we get back..."
He turned around, waved his hand and said, "Go back to Xiao Mansion."
Chen Zhou pulled out the Shang Fang sword from the body of Prince Qian and arranged for someone to take his body back. When walking back, he walked quickly to Su Mei and said, "Miss Su didn't see it just now. Your Excellency heard that Su Mei
When something happened to the girl, her eyes were red..."
Su Mei looked at him and asked, "What happened?"
Chen Zhou cleared his throat and said, "Young lady doesn't know something. This is what happened..."
