Chapter 174: Jealousy of a Woman
Facing a pig teammate like Dujuan, killing her would be too easy for the Queen.
The Queen should also enjoy it.
Tang Ning poured salt water on Du Juan to wake her up, and then had all the helpers given to her by the Queen killed in front of her.
Blood flowed like a river, but Tang Ning didn't show any mercy. If she had, she wouldn't be so lucky next time.
She was lucky this time and was not killed directly. I guess if there is a next time, she will be the first one to be killed.
"Princess, please forgive me! I won't dare to do it again."
The maid who had protected her in the carriage knelt down and begged for mercy. The other one who beat her still knelt on the ground even though she knew that she would never let her go.
Looking at Tangning with longing:
"Princess, we were also forced. Please let us go!"
"Yes, Princess. They used our families to force us. We couldn't do anything about it."
Blood was flowing all over the yard as Tang Ning walked to the torture device that Du Juan had prepared for her.
What tiger chair, next to the nail stool.
Tang Ning pulled out the red-hot iron from the charcoal fire and slowly walked towards Dujuan.
"No, no!!"
Du Juan looked at Tang Ning approaching in horror and struggled to escape.
"You've really put a lot of effort into preparing so many tortures for me. Did you bring all the torture instruments from the Ministry of Justice? You're really showing off!"
Tang Ning was almost laughing out of anger. If she were an ordinary person, she would have probably tried torture by now.
The iron in his hand burned her face where the words were originally engraved without hesitation.
"Didn't you say you didn't want words on your face? I'll help you remove them."
After the perm, Tang Ning looked at the maid who hit her, and the maid trembled and stepped back.
"Never mind my business. It wasn't me who did it. The Queen told us to do it."
Tang Ning dragged the person over, and Gu Mufeng couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
"Why not give her a quick death?"
Tang Ning nodded, and Gu Mufeng directly wiped the maid's neck.
Tangning looked at the other one for a moment, then gave her two options:
"First, I'll kill you, and we'll settle things between us. I won't bother your family anymore."
Tangning pointed at Du Juan beside her.
"The second option is that I won't kill you. You take her to the palace and find a way to see the emperor. Tell him what the queen did. As for whether the emperor or queen kills you, I have no control over it. In exchange, I will help you rescue your family."
The maid didn't hesitate and chose the second path directly. At least there was hope of survival.
When Du Juan saw that Tang Ning actually let her go to the palace, she was secretly delighted. She would then say that this maid had betrayed the Queen and would make the Queen execute all these people.
After making sure there were no other survivors, Tang Ning and the other two rushed back together to avoid worrying Song Nuannuan.
In the carriage, Mu Zixin made small talk:
"Tangning, I always thought only us secret guards and assassins were bloodthirsty. How come you're so bloodthirsty too?"
Mu Zixin always felt that although Tang Ning would kill people, she was quite kind most of the time. She would adopt abandoned orphans and even help beggars on the street.
When he sees a woman being bullied, he will help her, but it seems that he never shows mercy to his enemies.
"If I don't kill them, they will come looking for me sooner or later, and then I might be the one to die."
Tang Ning had just killed quite a few people and was still feeling a bit upset.
"It's also because I know clearly that being kind to the enemy is being cruel to myself."
She would never make this mistake again, even if she was doomed to be covered in blood after her death.
Gu Mufeng remained silent and didn't say anything.
He just held her carefully in his arms.
Mu Zixin seemed to be not used to this atmosphere and spoke exaggeratedly:
"Don't be so cruel next time. Even a man like me feels scared just watching you. Besides, it's better to be gentle in front of your husband."
"If you don't speak, no one will think you're dumb. Mu Feng, do you also think I was too harsh?"
Tangning thought this person was really annoying.
She looked at Gu Mufeng who had been silent, and felt even more annoyed.
"No, I was just thinking, next time something like this happens, I'll help you, otherwise you'll have another nightmare."
Gu Mufeng remained silent the entire time, and the atmosphere along the way was not very good. Mu Zixin felt that something was not right between the two of them.
The moment Song Nuannuan saw Tangning, she rushed over crying, not even caring about the child.
"What's wrong with you? You should have found a space to hide in. How could you be captured? What if something unexpected happens?"
Song Nuannuan was so worried that she couldn't sleep for several days, and her eyes were dark as she waited for news.
"I'm fine, don't cry. It's okay to cry during confinement. Be careful not to damage your eyes."
"I'm so scared you'll leave me alone again."
Song Nuannuan had been thinking a lot over the past few days, fearing that something might happen to Tang Ning, leaving her alone. Where would she go to find Tang Ning then?
"I'm fine. Don't forget, I can still use it even without the ring."
You can also protect yourself at critical moments.
Tang Ning was extremely relieved that she was the one being kidnapped this time. If it was Song Nuannuan, she would probably go even crazier.
Thinking of this, she put the ring on Song Nuannuan's hand.
"What are you doing?"
Song Nuannuan didn't understand, and Tangning burst into tears.
"What if they catch you this time? I'll give you the ring. If anything goes wrong, just hide inside."
Gu Mufeng felt a little envious. Tang Ning had never cared so much about him before.
"We can't stay in Haishi anymore, let's go somewhere else."
As night fell, Tang Ning washed up and lay exhausted in Gu Mufeng's arms.
Gu Mufeng nodded silently, and Tang Ning forced him to look at her.
"What's wrong with you today? Why do you seem unhappy all the time?"
Gu Mufeng measured her body, without looking at her, and said quietly:
"I just found out today that you can take people out directly from the space."
Tangning remained silent. Was this the reason she was angry?
"Weren't you at war at the time? If I had dragged you out directly, you wouldn't have been able to return without the ring. How could the general suddenly disappear on the battlefield?"
But when you had the chance later, you didn't do it.
"Wasn't I angry afterwards?"
"In the end, you just don't like me enough. When I went to the battlefield, you didn't even tell me that the ring would save my life. That's why I look forward to your letter every month."
Gu Mufeng felt more and more aggrieved as he spoke, and Tang Ning punched him on the head with a fist as big as a sandbag.
"A grown man, you're jealous of a woman for no reason. Are you anxious because you don't have a battle to fight? Why don't we both get up and practice some exercises?"
Gu Mufeng hugged the woman in his arms.
"Sleep, aren't you tired enough? Why don't we try something else."
