Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family

He picked the wrong time, so he knelt down and apologized: "Yes, I made a mistake."

Ling Heng rubbed his brows and said, "Leave the security to Si Po. Make sure they are safe in Shengjing City. The rest can be prepared by the Minister of Rites according to the proper etiquette."

"Yes."

According to the news brought by the secret agent in Daliang several months ago, Gu Xingyan, the ninth prince of Daliang, was raised among the people because of his frail health since childhood.

It was not until the beginning of the year that the old emperor of Daliang suddenly passed away and the city was taken back.

Unexpectedly, this man was extremely capable. In the battle against the Zhao Kingdom, together with Princess Ning'an, who was a disciple of Master Sanqing, they captured General Wang of Ava and more than 200,000 Zhao Kingdom captives alive in just one battle.

What is kept in the folks is clearly raising a useful knife!

Gu Xingcheng, the new emperor of Daliang, used his own brother as a tool in order to secure his throne. It can be seen that he is not a good person either.

An hour later, an East Palace guard who went to look for Sipo came back.

His body was covered in blood and his face was pale.

When Ling Heng saw his expression, his face changed. Without waiting for him to speak, he asked, "Where are the Sipo people?"

The guard knelt down and said, "Reply, reply to His Royal Highness, Sir Si, Sir Si, he, he is dead."

Ling Heng's heart trembled suddenly, and he grabbed the man's collar and lifted him up from the ground. His eyes were bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Say it again to me!"

"Reply, reply to His Royal Highness, Lord Si was killed by an assassin. He was stabbed in the heart and died on the spot."

He and several Eastern Palace guards found the bodies of Sipo and others in a mass grave outside the capital. There were forty-eight bodies. All the Eastern Palace people who went to capture the four assassins were dead.

The bodies were dumped in mass graves.

"Who, who did it!" Ling Heng threw the guard to the ground.

The guard knelt hurriedly, beads of cold sweat already oozing from his forehead. Everyone in the East Palace knew how much His Royal Highness the Crown Prince relied on Lord Si.

"The assassin escaped, escaped..."

"Where is the person!" Ling Heng yelled at the guard.

"Yes, in a courtyard outside the city."

They carried all forty-eight bodies to the villa.

Ling Heng rushed out of the East Palace and rode his horse towards the villa.

He couldn't believe that Sipo died just like that.

He and Sipo grew up together and are like brothers.

Sipo accompanied him through all those hard days in the palace.

Eunuchs and palace maids wanted to bully him, but he always stood in front of them and protected them with his arms.

"Your Highness, I'm not hungry. This is for you." Even though he was starving to death, he still forced the half cold and hard bun into his mouth.

"Your Highness, are you cold? Let's get closer." The small body hugged him tightly, holding the shivering self in his arms.

Until, my mother finally had the opportunity to meet my great uncle Xu Jianzhou, and then used the money in Xu Jianzhou's hands to open the way little by little.

Give him and Sipo the opportunity to leave the palace and practice martial arts.

Their lives gradually got better.

But they didn't dare to do it openly, for fear of being discovered by the eunuchs and maids in the palace.

During those years, the two of them practiced martial arts almost at the risk of their lives.

"Your Highness, start the attack!"

"Your Highness, I give in."

"Your Highness, are you tired? I am so tired and I really want to take a day off."

"Your Highness..."

Other courtyard.

Forty-eight bodies were neatly laid out on the ground.

Seeing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rushing in, all the servants and guards knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe.

Everyone knows the master-servant relationship between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and General Si.

Sipo was stabbed in the heart by a sword, his robe was stained red with blood, his eyes were wide open, as if he died with his eyes open.

Ling Heng squatted in front of Sipo's body, his heart aching, and reached out to close his eyes.

"Investigate for me! You will find the murderer even if you have to dig deep into the ground!"

Ling Heng clenched his fists, his joints making creaking sounds, and roared at the guards.

Ling Yan! I will fight you till death!

The guards were so frightened that they dared not even breathe and just responded in unison.

People all say that when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was the Prince of Heng, he was gentle and polite even to his servants.

But only the guards and servants of Prince Heng's Mansion knew best that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was ruthless and had killed people like crazy.

During this period, most of the things were done by Sipo on behalf of the prince.

……

Two days later, when the bright red pomegranate flowers bloomed all over Shengjing City in mid-June, the Daliang delegation set foot on the land of Shengjing City.

The people of Shengjing City stood on both sides of the street, looking and cheering.

A four-wheel drive canopy carriage slowly drove in from the city gate.

Gu Xingyan and Li Shuangwan were sitting in the carriage.

Seeing Li Shuangwan's body trembling slightly, Gu Xingyan moved to sit next to her and gently held her hand.

Her hands were cold.

"Yan Yan, are you okay?"

Li Shuangwan smiled at him: "I'm fine."

Gu Xingyan hugged her and kissed her forehead: "Don't worry, I'm always here."

Li Shuangwan put her arms around the man's waist, closed her eyes, and leaned in Gu Xingyan's arms.

Outside the carriage, the people looked into it, trying to see the two nobles inside.

"Have you heard? This time, Daliang sent His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince and Princess Ning'an to congratulate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on his new title as the Crown Prince."

"Of course I heard about it. I also heard that His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince and Princess Ning'an just returned from the battlefield in Rangcheng. They killed the God of War Ava."

"So amazing? A woman can be a general?"

"Why not? The new emperor of Daliang has implemented a new policy that allows women to serve as officials or soldiers. Princess Ning'an was named a princess because of her great contribution this time."

"Alas, back then, wasn't Li Shuangwan, the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion of our Northern Jin, also raised in the northwest border? It's a pity that she died such a tragic death."

"Not only did she die miserably, her martial arts skills were destroyed long ago, otherwise, she would have been a great general."

"She married the prince, so she can't become a general."

"That's because she is unlucky. If she were alive, she would have been the Crown Princess, the future Queen of our Northern Jin."

"Hush, you are risking your life. How dare you say that? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is deeply in love with the former Crown Princess. No one is allowed to mention it."

Everyone quickly shut up, thinking back to when the Crown Prince had just passed away and how distraught he was, they all secretly shed tears.

"The Minister of Rites of Northern Jin, Shen Wenjie, respectfully welcomes His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince of Daliang, Princess Ning'an."

The new Minister of Rites, Shen Wenjie, went to the city gate to greet them. When he saw the carriage approaching, he led everyone from the Ministry of Rites in paying respect.

Gu Xingyan lifted the curtain and helped Li Shuangwan get off the carriage.

Li Shuangwan covered her face with a veil.

Gu Xingyan and Li Shuangwan returned the greeting: "Thank you, Lord Shen, for coming to greet us personally."

"Your Highness the Ninth Prince, Princess Ning'an, the posthouse is ready. The delegation can go there to rest first. His Highness the Crown Prince will personally welcome Your Highness the Ninth Prince, Princess Ning'an and other delegation members from your country in three days."

Gu Xingyan nodded calmly: "Okay, thank you, Master Shen."
