After hearing her gossip, all the civil and military officials went crazy.

Chapter 216 Why do you want to kill me?

[When did I say I didn't want to sleep? I initially said it was still early, how did it suddenly get so late! Oh no!]

[Host, you'd better get some sleep; you don't have much time left.]

Fang Lingchu angrily closed her eyes and ignored the system.

She fell asleep shortly afterward.

"Princess, your servant has come in!"

Blueberry knocked on the door but received no response. She opened the door and went in, only to find Fang Lingchu sprawled out, still fast asleep.

Blueberry knew this was the situation, which is why she didn't let anyone else in first.

Blueberry: My lady! You're a princess now, and this sleeping position...

Blueberry straightened Fang Lingchu, covered her with the blanket, and then let the people outside in.

"The princess is a little tired, please be gentle."

Then they had the people who usually served Fang Lingchu come over and help her up.

Fang Lingchu was tormented by everyone in a daze.

[Guagua, I'm so tired]

Fang Lingchu, who had been tormented for two hours, finally woke up.

[What are you tired about? Blueberry is the one who's tired, okay? She held your head for two hours, and her arms have gotten all thick from all that effort.]

Shut up!

Fang Lingchu glanced silently at Blueberry's hand, then silently looked away.

She was a little bit guilty.

Fortunately, at that moment, someone came and helped Fang Lingchu away.

Because Fang Lingchu had many affairs to attend to in her fiefdom and the princess's residence, she reassigned several of her maids who originally worked for the Fang family.

The person now taking care of her is someone given by the Empress, unlike Manmei and the others.

"Your Highness, please be careful."

Peach Blossom felt the weight in her hands and realized that Fang Lingchu was probably not used to the clothes she was wearing.

I quickly whispered a reminder, afraid that something might happen to her in such an important situation.

"understood"

Fang Lingchu still felt incredibly sleepy!
After being helped into the car by Peach Blossom, she fell asleep again leaning against the side.

[Host, wake up! There's an assassin!]

The system was speechless at Fang Lingchu. It told her to go to sleep early but she didn't, and now she was acting like she was going to die.

Fang Lingchu doesn't communicate with the system, so no one can hear the system's voice.

[Host, host, get up quickly! The assassin is in the crowd.]

It took Fang Lingchu a while to react.

At this moment, the system's voice went silent.

[Guagua, didn't you just say there was an assassin?]

His words left everyone around him and in front of and behind him completely dumbfounded.

Everyone: What? An assassin?
Emperor: There are assassins. How are the Imperial Guards doing their jobs?

[Host, be careful, lower your head]

Fang Lingchu instinctively obeyed, and then an arrow flew past her head, and she heard the sound of a sword whistling through the air.

A scream brought everyone back to reality.

The horseman behind Fang Lingchu was shot and fell to the ground; his head had been blown off.

Fang Lingchu was about to turn her head away when the system called her back.

[Host, don't turn around. This assassination attempt is aimed at you.]

The system said this because it didn't want Fang Lingchu to feel guilty.

Her host is too kind.

If I knew someone had died because of her, I would be sad for a long time.

Actually, the system was overthinking it. On the day Xia Mingjie died, Fang Lingchu had already lost all interest in such matters.

Why? Why do they want to kill me? I didn't do anything!

[Host, the things you've done could be easily uncovered by anyone with a little investigation. You can now name the assassination targets of every country.]

Fang Lingchu: ...

[I'm speechless. Weren't we making those adults do it? Some of it was even ordered by the emperor!]

Fang Lingchu was talking to the system while summoning her Shadow Legion.

"Go and kill those hiding in the shadows!" Then he continued, "How many are there?"

[Many, densely packed, from various factions]

[Damn it, there are people from the martial arts world here too? Why would they want to kill me?]

The entire Shadow Legion was mobilized. Apart from the few sent to protect their families, Fang Lingchu had 42 members on her side.

She left 6 people to protect her, and the rest were sent out by Fang Lingchu.

Everyone was still somewhat shocked to see the person who suddenly appeared next to Fang Lingchu.

Fang Lingchu became a princess and could support a thousand cavalrymen, but...

The people below heard the sound and tried to look up, but unfortunately they couldn't see anything.

[Host, now is not the time to discuss this. We can kill those hiding in the shadows, but what about those among the common people?]

The system was getting increasingly anxious as it saw that most of the red dots were on the civilians' side.

What? There are still assassins among the common people?

【what to do】

Fang Lingchu quickly sent someone to speak with the Crown Prince, as they were more experienced in such matters.

[Let the Crown Prince and the Emperor handle this; the ceremony cannot be missed.]

【it is good】

The main force continued forward, and Fang Lingchu instantly transformed into the majestic and awe-inspiring princess who protected the nation.

They gradually came into the public eye, then stood tall, smiled, and greeted everyone.

"Is that our Princess Xianling, the protector of the nation? She's so beautiful!"

"Did she just smile at us? We heard the princess is a deity reincarnated, let's quickly pay our respects."

"Yes, we hope the princess will bless us with good health and safety."

"Please, Princess, bless my mother-in-law with a speedy recovery."

"Please, Princess, bless my husband with peace and safety."

……

The sudden kneeling and pleading of the people were like a golden thread, slowly flowing into Fang Lingchu's body.

[Guagua, what's going on? I feel like my skills have become more powerful.]

Meanwhile, Xiao Bai, who was protecting Lin Wanrou at the border, also felt the changes in himself.

Seeing Xiaobai's strange behavior, Lin Wanrou asked worriedly, "Xiaobai, what's wrong? Did something happen to the princess?"

Xiao Bai tightened his grip on his hands, shook his head, and indicated that he was alright.

Lin Wanrou was somewhat discouraged. She couldn't talk to Xiaobai and didn't know how things were in the capital.

At this moment, the high priest of Miao territory arrived.

"Holy Maiden, it's time for your lesson."

"understood"

Lin Wanrou has been in the Southern Frontier Kingdom for almost half a month.

These days she has been learning how to control Gu techniques, while also raising her own natal Gu and controlling the legendary Gu King.

He felt somewhat powerless, but he thought of Fang Lingchu's expectations of him.

She was filled with motivation again; after all, she was the leading lady, and she couldn't just give up like that.

Think of the princess, and think of your own fate.

……

Meanwhile, Xiao Hei on Fang Lingming's side also sensed it.

Fang Lingming looked at the various cases in front of him with a headache, feeling his head throbbing.

"Xiao Hei, how are your family members?"

Xiao Hei nodded.

Seeing Xiao Hei nod, Fang Lingming smiled and continued with his work.

Meanwhile, Fang Lingchu was now standing on the altar.

【Guagua, let the performance begin!】

With each step Fang Lingchu took, the sky darkened a little more.

Gradually, dark clouds gathered, and suddenly lightning flashed and thunder roared across the sky.

With a deafening roar, the explosion reverberated throughout the sky.

It also deterred those who wanted to cause trouble.

[Guagua, your thunderbolt is pretty good.]
