The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

Chapter 423

The county magistrate was secretly anxious. He originally thought that the captive killers could easily deal with this group of people, but he didn't expect that his killers didn't gain the upper hand at all, and even looked like they were losing.

Who are these people and why are they so troublesome?

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in the county magistrate's eyes. He drew out the soft sword at his waist, the sword flashing with cold light, revealing a murderous aura. He moved and rushed towards the secret guards.

The county magistrate's swordsmanship was brutal and tricky, and every move went straight to the vital points.

However, the secret guards were no ordinary people. They worked in perfect harmony and neutralized the county magistrate's attacks one by one.

The county magistrate fought more and more anxiously, and he found that he could not gain the upper hand.

This made him even angrier, and he swung the sword even more violently.

Shangguan Ziling looked at the secret guards and the assassins hired by the county magistrate, tilted her head and looked at Mo Shaoxie who was sitting beside her, and said, "This county magistrate is quite skilled in martial arts!"

Upon hearing this, Mo Shaoxie looked at Shangguan Ziling and said, "Just barely."

Shangguan Ziling smiled slightly and said, "Is this enough? Some of the secret guards were injured."

Upon hearing this, Mo Shaoxie said, “Compared to me, you are nothing.”

Shangguan Ziling's mouth twitched. Her man's martial arts were of course impeccable, but who were you showing your pride to?

Mo Shaoxie moved instantly and attacked the county magistrate.

The fight did not last long. Although the county magistrate was a skilled martial artist, he gradually felt overwhelmed when faced with Mo Shaoxie's sudden attack.

Finally, due to a flaw, he was knocked to the ground by Mo Shaoxie with a palm, spitting blood.

The county magistrate fell to the ground, gasping for breath, and looked at the man Mo Shaoxie with some fear in his eyes!

As the county magistrate fell to the ground, the killers were shot dead one by one by Mo Feng and others.

The county magistrate suppressed the pain in his chest and slowly stood up. His face was pale.

He looked at the killers whom he had spent countless amounts of money to hire, now lying in a pool of blood, motionless, and felt heartbroken.

The county magistrate's chest was heaving, and he covered his chest, as if this could ease the fear in his heart. He asked in a trembling voice: "Who are you? You should know that killing an official of the court is a capital crime!"

The yamen runners on the side were intimidated by the momentum of Shangguan Ziling and his group. They huddled in the corner like a group of frightened quails.

Mo Feng stood beside Shangguan Ziling and Mo Shaoxie. He looked at the assassins lying on the ground and reported coldly, "Master, Princess, all the assassins have been killed."

Shangguan Ziling took out a bottle of medicine from her bosom and threw it to Mo Feng, "Let the injured brother treat his wound first."

"Yes, thank you, Princess." Mo Feng took the medicine and gave it to the injured secret guards, asking them to bandage their wounds.

The county magistrate stiffened when he heard the words "Master, Princess". He felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart. The identities of these people were so extraordinary.

How could a princess from the capital appear in this remote Rongcheng? She even came to the county government office to make a scene. He really offended the wrong person this time, and he knew he was in a desperate situation.

He couldn't let these people leave the county government office, otherwise he was afraid that he would be finished. He had no choice but to go all out and let these people die in Rongcheng.

The county magistrate thought about this, and he took out another flare from his arms and fired it fiercely. A cunning flashed in his eyes. He had more assassins than just the county magistrate. When all his assassins arrived, it would be the death of these people.

Bei Suqi looked at the county magistrate's actions and said with a joking smile, "Oh, it seems that the killers you have are not just those in the county government? Are you sending out signal flares to ask for help or to have your killers kill people to silence them?"

The county magistrate sneered and did not answer. He already had a plan in mind. As long as his help arrived, these people would never leave the county government alive.

Shangguan Ziling looked at the county magistrate's cold smile and had an idea in her mind. She turned to Bei Suqi and said, "Cousin, let them come so that we can catch them all at once. Otherwise, we have to investigate how many assassins this county magistrate has and what he wants to do."

Bei Suqi nodded in agreement.

They were not alarmed by the county magistrate's actions, but waited nonchalantly.

The county magistrate listened to their words and saw the nonchalant look of these people, who were not at all alarmed by his flare firing. His uneasiness grew stronger.

But things have come to this, he has no way out and can only continue on. However, he looked at Lu Zhentian who was huddled in the corner with a cold look in his eyes.

It was this piece of trash who brought these people here.

When Lu Zhentian noticed the county magistrate's gaze, he shuddered. He knew that this group of people were powerful, but he didn't expect that even the county magistrate couldn't do anything to them!

The county magistrate looked at Shangguan Ziling and his group with a sneer and said, "No matter who you are, you can't even think of leaving the county government office today." His voice was full of determination and madness, as if he wanted to vent all his anger and fear on this group of people.

However, Shangguan Ziling looked at the county magistrate, covered her chest, and acted like she was scared. "Oh, what should I do? I'm so scared."

Qiu Kui smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, Princess. With the prince here, this damn county magistrate can't cause any trouble."

Mo Shaoxie walked over to Shangguan Ziling and sat down, looking at her lovingly, "Well! Ling'er, don't be afraid, I'm here!"

Shangguan Ziling gave Mo Shaoxie a mischievous smile.

The county magistrate was so angry at their conversation that he was shaking all over. He was also afraid that it really was a prince or princess from the capital, but he didn't know which prince or princess was coming out for a visit.

The county magistrate did not think at all about the regent who had fought a great battle on the border. If he had known it was the regent, he would never have taken action against them and would have treated them to delicious food and fun.

The county magistrate said coldly: "You don't need to bother with your words. You guys are a bunch of ignorant people. You will soon know what will happen if you offend me!"

"Then we will wait and see how powerful you are as a county magistrate and how many assassins you have recruited!"

"Humph! You'll regret this!"
