With a warehouse full of supplies, I stood alone as king in this chaotic world, gun in hand.

A month ago, Nangong Wu had just returned to the palace when she clashed with Nangong Qi and his group, and their guards split into two factions.

One faction followed Nangong Qi, and the other faction followed Nangong Wu.

They chose Nangong Wu not because they were particularly loyal to her, but because they felt that she possessed a token and that following her would lead to a brighter future.

Moreover, Nangong Qi's group was ruthless and cruel, often beating and scolding them, treating them like dirt.

Xiao Lin leaned close to Nangong Wu's ear and said, "You're tired today! Go back and rest first. Leave the Snake Spirit Society matters to me."

Nangong Wu felt his warm breath on her neck, which tickled her slightly, so she took a step back.

"You've had a bit too much to drink today. Go back and get some rest. We'll discuss the Snake Spirit Society matter tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll take you and the children back first, then I'll go rest." Xiao Lin picked up Nangong Jue and insisted on taking her back to Zuimei Courtyard.

"..." Nangong Wu felt that this person was acting a little strange today.

But he assumed the man was drunk and didn't think much of it, so he took his youngest daughter and returned to Zuimei Courtyard.

Back at Zui Mei Courtyard, Xiao Lin handed the child to the wet nurse and said to Nangong Wu:

"It's still early, I'll go out for a bit and find some friends in the martial arts world to discuss how to eliminate the Serpent Spirit Society."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left, waving to her behind him.

"Don't worry about me!"

Nangong Wucai wasn't worried about him. She gave the child to the wet nurse, took Li Shuang back to the room, and opened the paper that Princess Li had given her.

Upon opening it, I found a map showing the entire defenses of Kyoto, along with a letter.

The letter was written by Nangong Yi, who said that he had collected a lot of evidence against Nangong Xun, but given the Emperor's favor towards him, he could not eliminate him completely.

"Your Highness, with the power of the Prince of Li, he cannot touch Nangong Xun." Li Shuang pondered as she looked at the defense map.

"It seems we have to put some pressure on him." Nangong Wu looked at the map and secretly made a plan.

"Go and call Li Feng, Li Cheng, and Li Zhan over here."

"Yes."

A moment later, Li Feng, Li Cheng, Li Zhan, Li Shuang, and Li An all stood in front of her.

Nangong Wu took out five pistols from a small box and placed them on the table.

The five Flying Feather Guards' eyes lit up immediately; it was the iron lump His Highness had used last night.

Nangong Wu picked up a pistol. "Last night, you all saw how powerful this iron thing is."

"Your Highness, how did you obtain such a powerful weapon?" Li Feng asked, voicing his doubts.

Nangong Wu waved her hand, "How you got them isn't important, what's important is that they can save your lives. Each of you take one, and if you learn how to use them, you can be just as powerful as me."

These are the people she trusts most, and she wants to teach them some more skills, combining ancient martial arts with modern weapons, to enhance their combat capabilities.

Li Feng is about to go to the northern frontier, so we need to give him some things to protect his life.

"For us." Li Cheng was pleasantly surprised and picked up a pistol first.

The iron thing doesn't look big, but it's quite heavy in your hand.

The other four each took one as well.

"Your Highness, how do you use this?" Li Feng asked, examining the gun.

"Of course we need to practice." Nangong Wu took out a few more silencers. "These are silencers, you can install them first."

The gunshots were too loud, so we practiced with silencers so that people outside wouldn't hear us.

She took Li Shuang's pistol and taught them how to attach a silencer.

"Let's go! I'll teach you how to use it."

Nangong Wu picked up a target that had been placed to the side and led them to an open space in the courtyard.

Her Drunken Plum Garden is very large, covering an area of ​​more than 1,000 square meters.

There are three main rooms, two right side rooms, two left side rooms, five rooms each in the east and west wings, and a rear building. The courtyard has a garden, a rockery, a pavilion, and a large open space, making it comparable to a top-tier villa in my previous life.

"Let's do it here!" Nangong Wu placed the target in front of a rockery and began teaching them how to shoot.

********

Jishun Inn.

The door to the private room was suddenly opened.

Young Master Qi looked up and was quite surprised to see the man who had entered.

"The Prince of Zhenyuan's mansion is holding a full-moon celebration today. Shouldn't you be at the mansion playing the role of a father of three at this time? How could you bear to come back? I thought you were really going to be a gigolo at the Prince of Zhenyuan's mansion."

Xiao Lin sat down opposite him, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup, glancing at him, "Stop being so unserious all the time."

"Alright!" Young Master Qi's smile vanished, his gaze turning cold.

"I didn't expect Nangong Xun to go to such great lengths this time, sending so many people from the Serpent Spirit to assassinate Nangong Wu?"

At this point, he became curious again, "How did you manage to do that last night? More than a hundred people from the Snake Spirit Society went in, and not a single person from the Zhenyuan Prince's Mansion was injured or killed?"

Anyone targeted by the Serpent Spirit Society almost always suffers death or injury. I was worried sick for you last night, but you actually killed everyone. Could it be that Nangong Wu really has some extraordinary abilities?

Upon hearing his words, Xiao Lin couldn't help but think of the weapons Nangong Wu had used.

He could tell that those weapons were well-made and highly lethal, and definitely not something an ordinary person could make.

Nangong Wu, this woman definitely hides a great secret.

"Qi Ziyang, do you remember that night more than ten months ago, behind Huguo Temple, did anything happen?"

"More than ten months ago, on the back mountain of Huguo Temple?" Qi Ziyang asked in confusion. "That night, weren't you trying to expel the poison from the hot spring? I stayed outside watching over you all night."

Xiao Lin frowned. "Didn't you see anyone go in?"

Qi Ziyang thought about it carefully, then shook his head. "I didn't see it. If someone went in, wouldn't you know... wait!"

He suddenly slapped his forehead. "That night, I saw that it was getting light and you still hadn't come out, so I got worried and went in to look for you. I found you lying unconscious on the shore with a lot of scratches on your body."

I checked you over and found that the poison in your body had been neutralized, so I carried you down the mountain.

"You're asking this? Surely someone went in and knocked you unconscious? But that doesn't make sense!"

"I don't know. The poisoning was very severe that night. I think I vomited blood, and then I had no memory of it. When I woke up, you had already brought me back." Xiao Lin clutched his chest.

"Hearing you say that, perhaps something really happened that night that I don't know about?" Qi Ziyang looked at him in surprise. "Since that time, the poison in your body has never acted up again, which is very strange."

Seeing his confused expression, he couldn't help but say, "You've been poisoned by the Spring Breeze Poison. We haven't found an antidote yet. Even the most skilled doctors say there's no cure for this poison unless you go find that woman."

But since returning from Huguo Temple, the poison in your body hasn't flared up again. Could it be that you were raped by some woman?
