Hearing Shangguan Xiu's words, Ding Ding and Zi Yin shrank in fear, both of them lowered their heads, neither of them dared to say anything more.
Shangguan Xiu was drinking chicken soup when a disciple from the Tongtian Clan came over, came to Shangguan Xiu's side, bowed and saluted, and said, "Your Majesty, your Majesty invites you."
Shangguanxiu put down the soup bowl in his hand, stood up, and walked towards Tang Ling's carriage.
After walking a few steps, he suddenly stood still, turned his head to look at the Tongtianmen disciple walking next to him, and asked: "I haven't seen you before, are you a newcomer?"
"My lord is joking.
I have been serving His Majesty for two years."
The Tongtian Clan disciple bowed respectfully and replied.
"It's normal for adults to have so many things to do every day that they don't remember little people."
There were too many people around Tang Ling, including female officials, palace maids, imperial guards, Duwei Mansion, Tongtianmen, etc.
How could Shangguan Xiu remember them all clearly?
He shrugged and did not ask further questions.
He walked to Tang Ling's carriage and jumped on.
Entering the carport, he saw Tang Ling lying lazily on the soft couch with several plates of snacks in front of him.
He smiled and asked, "Xiang'er is looking for me."
"Didn't you say you only went out for a walk?
Why didn't you come back once you went out?"
Tang Ling asked dissatisfied.
Shangguan Xiu could clearly feel Tang Ling's change towards him.
Before coming to Beijun, Tang Ling often summoned him, but he didn't stick to him.
But when he arrived in Beijun, Tang Ling almost tied him to his side.
This feeling made Shangguanxiu feel sweet and helpless at the same time. .
Bai Ping's intention is to look at the chapter of "Hey Eyes Brother" He said: "I just shot a pheasant in the woods."
"So you were eating secretly outside."
Tang Ling asked with a smile, "How does it taste?"
“Very delicious.”
"I want to try it too."
Tang Ling has always been a very rigid and dogmatic person.
She never eats outside food unless there is no other way.
Even when dining in the palace, she was careful.
No matter how much she hated the food, she would take three bites.
No matter how much she liked the food, she would never take more than three bites.
Even Shangguan Xiu didn't know about Tang Ling's diet. specific preferences.
This is the most basic self-awareness of an emperor.
He never reveals his preferences, so that others will not take advantage of her.
Even if someone wants to poison her food, they will not be able to do it.
Being an emperor is not free, and is restricted by many rules.
There are even clear rules on when to go to bed and when to get up.
These rules have their own reasons, and Tang Ling has always strictly abided by them.
Shangguanxiu was very surprised when he heard that she wanted to eat the game that Xiao Jue had hunted.
After thinking about it, he realized that it was Xiang'er who trusted him more and more.
Just because she trusted him, she naturally trusted him too.
The people around him.
After thinking about this, the smile on Shangguan Xiu's face deepened a little, and he said, "I'll go get some."
"Just let the people below get it."
"I'll go by myself."

Not long after, Shangguan Xiu returned to the carriage with a bowl of hot chicken soup, handed it to Tang Ling, and said with a smile, "How does it taste?"
"It smells pretty good."
Tang Ling drank a little first, and the delicious aroma of the chicken immediately spread in his mouth, which was unforgettable.
She smiled and rolled her bright eyes, and said: "It tastes very good.
If Xiao Jue hunts game in the future, remember to ask him to bring me a portion."
Shangguan Xiu said "Hello", sat down next to her, picked up a piece of snack and put it into his mouth.
After lunch, the team set off and continued on their way.
Going further, the terrain gradually becomes steep, with high cliffs standing beside the official road, rising straight up and down into the clouds.
Passing here, Shangguan Xiu felt uneasy.
Perhaps due to his vigilance from long-term battles, he knew very well where ambushes were easily set up and where traps were easy to be laid.
Black Tiger Ridge is an excellent place to set up an ambush.
The cliff is right next to the official road.
If there is an ambush on the mountain, just push down a falling rock and smash the pedestrians on the official road below to pieces.
Shangguan Xiu couldn't sit still in the carriage.
He stood up and was about to go out.
As soon as he moved, Tang Ling woke up from his sleep.
She grabbed the hem of his clothes and asked curiously: "Xiu, where are you going?"
Shangguan Xiu's expression was very calm, without any worry on his face.
He smiled at her and said, "I ate a little too much just now.
I'm going outside to get some fresh air."
As he spoke, he patted Tang Ling's little hand in relief, and then walked out of the carport.
The Imperial Guard warrior who was driving the carriage saw Shangguan showing off and asked, "Sir, is something wrong?"
"Continue driving without you."
Shangguanxiu waved his hand casually and raised his eyes to look at the top of the cliff on the roadside.
The cliff is too high.
If you stand below and look up, you can only see clouds and mist, and you can't see anything clearly.
Just when Shangguan Xiu was looking up with his hands behind his back, he suddenly heard a loud hawk's cry from high in the sky.
It was the falcon that warned Shangguan Xiu that he was no stranger to the chirping of eagles in the air.
He didn't know how many times he had heard it when he was marching and fighting.
Shangguan Xiu secretly screamed and without thinking, turned around and rushed back into the carriage.
Tang Ling, who was lying on his side, hadn't realized what had happened when he suddenly felt his waist tightening and he was rising into the air.
She couldn't help but scream, opened her eyes, and saw that she had incredibly flown out of the carriage shed, and it was Shangguan Xiu who jumped out holding her.
She was about to ask a question when suddenly she heard a loud bang in the air.
From the top of the cliff, a round boulder more than two meters high rolled down.
The loud noise was the falling rock hitting the cliff. sound.
It was too late to say, but it was so fast that Tang Ling didn't react, and then there was another deafening loud noise. click The huge rockfall hit the carriage that Tang Ling was riding in, and it was pulled by sixteen horses.
The carriage was wrapped in iron sheets both inside and outside.
It was instantly smashed to pieces by the big rockfall.
This situation made Tang Ling change his expression, and it also made Shangguan Xiu's expression change suddenly.
It is not difficult to imagine that if the two of them had not jumped out of the carriage in time just now, they would have been smashed into meat patties by this huge boulder just like the carriage.
After two or three seconds, the guards and gendarmerie on the scene all reacted, and for a while, people shouted and screamed.
"There is an ambush and an assassin is ambushing you on the mountain" "Protect your majesty and protect your lord" People around them flocked to Shangguan Xiu and Tang Ling.
Before people could get close to them, a gunshot was suddenly heard from halfway up the mountain not far away.
The sound of gunfire was dull, and the echo lingered in the valley for a long time.
And the assassin Shangguan Xiu didn't have time to think about it.

He turned around with Tang Ling's body in his arms and used his back to block the spirit bullets that were flying towards him.
With a crisp sound, the spirit bullet that roared through the sky hit him firmly in the back of his heart.
The powerful impact of the spirit gun made Shangguan Xiu stumble forward several steps.
He felt as if he had been hit by a hammer on his back, his throat was licking and his internal organs were churning.
This was thanks to his quick enough reaction and timely use of invisible protection, otherwise the power of this spiritual bullet would have been enough to penetrate his back.
The assassin missed his first shot, and if he tried to fire a second shot, he had no chance.
A large number of Imperial Guards and Gendarmerie, holding curtains high, surrounded Shangguan Xiu and Tang Ling.
No matter where the assassin was, there was no longer any shooting angle.
At the same time, thousands of Praetorian Guards and Gendarmerie pounced on the assassins who were hiding in the dark.
Not long after, the sound of fighting first came from the mountainside not far away.
Shangguan Xiu, who was covered by the curtain, put Tang Ling down and said in a deep voice to the people on the left and right: "You protect His Majesty, I will catch the assassin."
How brave it must be to openly assassinate the emperor in broad daylight.
Shangguan Xiu had to figure out who sent these assassins.
After explaining to everyone around him, Shangguan Xiu whispered to Tang Ling: "Xiang'er, you are here, don't go anywhere, wait for me to come back."
"Axiu, be careful" "Yes."
Shangguan Xiu agreed and squeezed out through the gap in the crowd.
Once outside, he put on his spiritual armor and ran straight to the mountainside where the fight took place.
Shangguan Xiu's speed was extremely fast.
With only a few ups and downs, he was already a hundred meters away.
In the blink of an eye, he disappeared among the crowds of Imperial Guards and Gendarmerie.
Almost all of those closely guarding Tang Ling were Tongtianmen disciples.
A young man in his early thirties squeezed in front of Tang Ling and asked with concern: "Is your Majesty okay?"
Tang Ling's face was as dark as water and he said: "I'm fine.
On my way back to Beijing, there were assassins ambushing me on the road.
How did you do things for me?"
All the disciples of the Tongtian Sect looked ugly and lowered their heads, not daring to look into Tang Ling's angry eyes.
This section of the road has not only been carefully explored by Anqi, but also by Tongtianmen and the Imperial Guards.
Not to mention that the shadow of the assassin has not been seen, and even the slightest abnormalities have been discovered.
Now the assassin suddenly appears. , their minds were also confused, and they didn't know where these assassins came from.
The young man who just spoke frowned and said: "The assassin is hiding on the top of the mountain, so that falling rocks can accurately hit His Majesty's carriage.
This shows that the assassin's actions were premeditated and precisely designed.
I suspect that it may be..."
"What could it be" "It may be that there is a spy around His Majesty.
Someone is secretly shielding the assassin and secretly informing the assassin."
After hearing this, Tang Ling's face became even more ugly.
There was a spy beside her.
She looked at the young man and asked, "Who do you suspect?"
The young man turned his eyes and looked at a Tongtian Clan disciple standing behind Tang Ling.
As he looked towards that person, the eyes of everyone around him also looked at him.
The man's face suddenly changed and he said in disbelief: "Qiao Shan, you doubt me?"
"If it's not you, who else could it be?"
As the young man spoke, the sword suddenly came out of its sheath and stabbed the man straight.
