Chapter 3 Assassination
The Mansion of the Marquis of Zhenguo is one of the most famous families in the capital. The Marquis of Zhenguo, as the founder of the country, is a hero in front of the current emperor.

As King Huainan, a great founding hero who also helped the emperor to conquer half of the country, since he accidentally saved the life of Marquis Zhenguo on the battlefield, the friendship between the two has sublimated, and they soon began to call themselves brothers secretly.

This time, the King of Huainan came to Beijing to celebrate his birthday. Although the Marquis of Zhenguo had lost his beloved son, he still held a banquet in the mansion to entertain the King of Huainan who came from afar.

The Mansion of the Marquis of Zhenguo is located in the most prosperous place in the capital, covering a very large area and a spacious house.

In a flowery courtyard in the Marquis of Zhenguo Mansion, the King of Huainan was holding the hand of a maid in pink.

This pink-clothed maid girl was like a flower like jade. When she was serving the king of Huainan at the banquet, he was caught by the king of Huainan at a glance.

Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Hou, pushed the boat along the river and clearly ordered the maid in pink to come and serve tea, but her intention was to give the maid in pink directly to the King of Huainan to enjoy.

The King of Huainan was lecherous by nature, and when he saw this, he had hooked him at the banquet just now.

The maidservant in Kefen refused to obey, and the impatient King of Huainan was very upset at the moment.

But seeing the beautiful woman with tears hanging from her cheeks made her even more lovable. He was excited again, so he resisted the urge to throw the pink-clothed maid directly onto the bed, and gently stroked the pink-clothed maid's jade hand, patiently and comfortingly said:
"Don't cry, don't be afraid, as long as you fulfill my wish today, I promise you inexhaustible glory and wealth in the future, how about it?"

Unexpectedly, the maid in pink heard what the king of Huainan said, not only did not obey, but also struggled desperately, trying to break free from the claws of the king of Huainan.

King Huainan exhausted his patience, pinched the pink-clothed maid's chin with his backhand, and rebuked displeasedly:

"It's really a toast, not eating and drinking! Is it much better to be my concubine of the King of Huainan than to be a maid?"

As the King of Huainan said that, he forcibly pulled the pink-clothed maid to bed, and started to tear up the pink-clothed maid's dress.

But Nacheng thought that the pink-clothed maid suddenly took something out of her arms and stabbed the king of Huainan in the heart.

King Huainan didn't expect that the pink-clothed maid would dare to assassinate him, and he was shocked, but he instinctively dodged and avoided the sneak attack of the pink-clothed maid.

Although the maid in pink was attacking at such a close range, he was unprepared, but after all, he had experienced a hundred battles, so he was calm in the face of danger, and quickly calmed down.

Seeing that the maid in pink had jumped from the bed to the ground while he was dodging, she turned and fled to the door, trying to get out.

The King of Huainan was furious, pulled out his sword and chased after him.

The King of Huainan quickly caught up with the pink-clothed maid who stumbled forward.

Just as he raised the long sword in his hand and was about to stab into the left chest of the pink-clothed maid to relieve the hatred in his heart, a slender hand suddenly stretched out and stopped in front of him.

The King of Huainan turned his head in surprise and met a pair of indifferent and clear eyes.

King Huainan couldn't help but stunned, "Eldest son?!"

The visitor was still handsome, although the dark eyes were a little unfathomable, but he confirmed that it was Xiao Tianmo, the eldest son of the Marquis of the State.

The King of Huainan frowned. Didn't he say that the eldest son of the Houfu was dead?
How can you stand here so well now?
At this moment, the maid in pink who couldn't help turning her head when she heard the voice, I don't know whether she was exhausted or too frightened, and she was about to fall softly to the ground when she heard the sound of "嘤四".

Xiao Tianmo hurriedly raised his hand to support her, and bowed slightly in response to King Huainan: "I have seen Uncle Shi."

The eagle-like gaze of the King of Huainan circled Xiao Tianmo's face, and then landed on the maid in pink, who would have fallen to the ground if he hadn't been pulled by Xiao Tianmo.

At this moment, something happened to slip from the hand of the pink-clothed maid, and the King of Huainan recognized that it was the hidden weapon that the pink-clothed maid used to assassinate him.

Seeing this clearly, King Huainan's eyes were instantly bigger than copper bells.

Only because he was shocked to find that this was not the hidden dagger he thought, but a piece of white jade radish.

"This this"

The King of Huainan was breathing heavily, his face was colorful and changing, like a colorful dye vat.

It turned out that the maid in pink didn't really want to assassinate him, she was just bluffing to get away.

But it made him feel so bad!
If anyone knew that he was a dignified and battle-hardened general, he couldn't even tell the difference between a dagger and a radish root in the kitchen, and he wouldn't be able to laugh off his big teeth!
Seeing the strange expression of King Huainan, Xiao Tianmo understood it, so he said in a deep voice:
"This girl has always been fussy, and I ask Uncle Shi to forgive her sins, so don't bother with her."

Seeing that Xiao Tianmo did not ask why he drew his sword, King Huainan breathed a sigh of relief, but said:
"If you don't understand the rules like this, you should really train her to make her recognize her identity. It's too presumptuous to be so daring as a servant!"

But he didn't mention the matter of letting the pink-clothed maid serve the bed.

Xiao Tianmo lowered his eyes to hide the look in his eyes, and replied lightly, "Uncle Shi taught me."

The King of Huainan gave Xiao Tianmo a sly look, snorted coldly, rolled his sleeves down the stone steps, and strode out of the courtyard.

After the back of King Huainan disappeared from sight, Xiao Tianmo cast his gaze on the maid in pink, who had calmed down at the moment, and lowered his eyes for some reason.

Thinking of the true identity of this maid, Xiao Tianmo's expression became complicated.

The pink-clothed maid in front of her was named Ting Lan. She was in her early twenties, but she looked very sweet and lovely. She was an orphan who was rescued by the Marquis of Zhen Guo when she went out to fight.

Because Ting Lanyan's relatives had long since passed away, the Marquis of Zhenguo took her in the mansion.

Even the name Tinglan was given to her by Marquis Zhenguo.

But no one could have imagined that this humble maid was actually the eldest daughter of the current queen who was lost during the war, and she was the real princess of the royal family.

In a previous life, Ting Lan was also given to the King of Huainan by Mrs.

Ting Lan, however, would rather die than obey, and eventually died under the sword of the King of Huainan.

Later, Ting Lan's identity was revealed, and they also offended the queen and the prince born by the queen.

Today's emperors have few descendants, and among them, the most capable princes and virtuous kings are the leaders.

The two factions of the prince and the wise king have been fighting openly and secretly for a long time, but when two tigers fight each other, one will be injured.

The House of the Marquis of Zhenguo has always remained neutral and never participated in party disputes.

But the matter of Tinglan made the prince hate Zhenguohou's mansion, but the Xianwang faction tried to win over him in every possible way. Zhenguohou's mansion had no choice.

However, King Xian was unscrupulous for the sake of the throne, and they eventually became a stepping stone for others, and they were completely destroyed.

Thinking of this, Xiao Tianmo asked Ting Lan solemnly, "What are your plans in the future?"

When Ting Lan heard the words, she immediately rushed forward and knelt down in front of Xiao Tianmo, "My servant, my servant, thank the eldest son for saving his life. This servant does not want to cause trouble for the Houfu. This servant knows I'm wrong, please don't drive the servant away!"

Although her legs were still trembling uncontrollably, Ting Lan gritted her teeth and forced herself to calm down.

She never expected that the dead eldest son would suddenly appear here and save her.
