The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

Chapter 427

The early morning sun shines through the woods, shining through the dense leaves and dappling onto the ground.

On this quiet morning, the air is filled with the mouth-watering aroma of barbecue.

Shangguan Ziling was awakened by the fragrance. She slightly opened her hazy eyes and saw Mo Shaoxie looking down at her with tenderness and doting in his eyes.

Last night, the group spent a night in the wild.

Shangguan Ziling lay in Mo Shaoxie's arms, feeling his solid chest and strong heartbeat, and her heart was filled with a sense of security.

However, maintaining the same posture for a long time made her body numb.

She moved slightly, trying to ease the discomfort.

"Don't move, Ling'er." Mo Shaoxie said softly. His voice was low and magnetic, which made Shangguan Ziling's heartstrings tremble slightly. She raised her head and looked at Mo Shaoxie, only to see a helpless smile on his face.

"What's wrong?" Shangguan Ziling asked, her voice still hinting of sleepiness.

"My body is a little stiff. If you move, I will feel more numb." Mo Shaoxie explained, his eyes full of pampering and helplessness.

Shangguan Ziling felt a little embarrassed when she heard this. She realized that she had been lying in Mo Shaoxie's arms all night, and he must be feeling worse than she was. Thinking of this, she immediately stood up, wanting to relieve Mo Shaoxie's burden.

However, because of her big movements, Shangguan Ziling almost fell down.

Seeing this, Mo Shaoxie immediately stretched out his arms and held her firmly. Although his arms were a little stiff, they were full of strength and warmth, which made Shangguan Ziling feel very relieved.

The two looked at each other and smiled, as if all the fatigue and discomfort disappeared at this moment.

"Be careful, you can't have any accidents now," Mo Shaoxie looked at Shangguan Ziling and blamed.

"Know it!"

Shangguan Ziling moved her hands and feet and instantly felt her blood flow better and she felt much more comfortable.

Shangguan Ziling sat next to Mo Shaoxie and started to massage him.

Bei Suqi looked over and said, "Cousin, brother-in-law, everyone here is still single, so the two of you should stop torturing us singles every day!"

Shangguan Ziling glared at Bei Suqi coquettishly, "Cousin!"

"Haha, I'll go away, stay away, and not disturb you..."

Shangguan Ziling looked at Bei Suqi's back helplessly. This second cousin of hers really liked to make fun of her more and more.

Find her a powerful sister-in-law in the future, hum!

The sunlight shone through the mist onto the streets and alleys of Rongcheng. Shangguan Ziling and his group had finished their breakfast and were preparing to set off back to Rongcheng.

The atmosphere was relaxed, as if yesterday's thrill was just a dream.

Mo Shaoxie received the letter from the secret guard. He unfolded the letter and scanned the lines of handwriting. The expression on his face gradually became relaxed, as if it was supposed to be that way.

"The secret guards report that all the assassins from last night have been eliminated." He whispered, his voice revealing an unquestionable firmness.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, but they did not let down their guard.

As the group strolled along, the outline of Rongcheng gradually became clear, but inside the county government office, it was a completely different scene.

County Magistrate Chuxiong paced anxiously in the room with a frown on his face.

He sent out a large number of assassins yesterday, thinking that he could kill Shangguan Ziling and his group in one fell swoop, but he didn't expect that no one has come back to report the news so far.

He felt vaguely uneasy, as if something was about to happen.

At this moment, a yamen runner suddenly shouted from outside the door: "Sir, it's bad! The group of men and women from yesterday broke into the county government office again!"

Chu Xiong's face suddenly changed when he heard this, and he was in a panic. He hurriedly opened the door and walked out, only to see Mo Shaoxie and others had already broken into the gate of the county government.

When Chu Xiong saw this scene, his face turned gloomy. He originally thought that his killer could get rid of this group of people, but he didn't expect that they would appear in front of him unscathed.

What frightened him even more was that none of his killers came back. He couldn't imagine what this meant.

He was about to leave the county government office quietly when he was caught by Mo Shaoxie and others.

Shangguan Ziling looked at him jokingly, with a mocking smile on her lips: "Want to run? It's too late!"

Shangguan Ziling walked to Chu Xiong and said coldly: "You sent people to assassinate us, do you think we will stop? Let me tell you, we remember everything you did. Today, you must pay the price for it."

"Dongqing, Qiukui, protect the princess." Mo Shaoxie's voice was low and firm, as if carrying an unquestionable power. His eyes were deep, like the stars in the night sky, shining with determination and courage.

Dongqing and Qiukui immediately understood what was said, and they flashed in front of the princess. Their eyes were full of vigilance and determination, as if they were two indestructible barriers, guarding the princess's safety.

At this time, Mo Shaoxie was like a black lightning, attacking Chu Xiong directly.

His figure was looming, and every move he made was accompanied by a sharp gust of wind, making it impossible to see his movements clearly.

Facing Mo Shaoxie's attack, Chu Xiong felt a lot of pressure even though he had strong internal strength.

He kept retreating, trying to resist Mo Shaoxie's attacks, but was forced into danger every time by Mo Shaoxie.

"Bang!" With a loud noise, Chu Xiong finally couldn't withstand Mo Shaoxie's attack and was knocked heavily to the ground.

He groaned in pain and looked at Mo Shaoxie and others with unwillingness.

Mo Shaoxie looked at Chu Xiong coldly, as if he was looking at an insignificant opponent. His eyes were full of disdain and indifference, "Chu Xiong, you dare to raise assassins, train weapons, forge the Ministry of War to recruit new soldiers, and use all means to make money, you really deserve to die!"

Chu Xiong's face turned pale when he heard this. He didn't expect that after just one day, they had investigated him so thoroughly. Knowing that he had no way to escape, he lowered his head and remained silent.

Bei Suqi's eyes flashed with coldness. He stared at the seriously injured Chu Xiong on the ground, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. His voice was low and cold: "How to deal with him?" This question was like a sharp sword hanging over Chu Xiong's head, which could fall at any time.

Mo Shaoxie stood aside, his face handsome and cold, like a statue without emotion. He glanced at Chu Xiong on the ground, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, and then waved his hand to signal the secret guard to come forward.

The secret guards were well-trained and quickly stepped forward to lift Chu Xiong up and take him out of the yamen.

The bailiffs in the yamen witnessed all this and were filled with uneasiness.

They watched Chu Xiong being taken away, with mixed feelings in their hearts. Some of the yamen runners were worried about their future, after all, Chu Xiong was their boss, they knew a little bit about what was going on, and they were also helping the tyrant.

Bei Suqi glanced at the yamen runners and sneered, "You are helping the tyrant, so don't even think about running away."
