In the blink of an eye, it split into two and fell to the ground.

The smell of blood suddenly filled the dark night.

The battle also started suddenly.

Ah Bao has led everyone in the mansion to wait for a long time. After Shen Lian returned today, he informed Ah Bao that there would be guests coming tonight, so Ah Bao was prepared to entertain them well.

Sure enough, the guests came just as they were told.

Abao had already been reminded by Shen Lian and had prepared in advance. How could there be an accident at this moment?

The Jinyi guards from the Intelligence Department constantly harassed these men in black from both sides.

Abao, on the other hand, led everyone in the mansion to directly attack these men in black in a battle formation.

The two parties support and cooperate with each other.

He soon took an absolute advantage.

The casualties of the men in black became increasingly heavy.

At this time, these men in black also knew that an accident had occurred.

"No, they have an ambush!"

"Withdraw! Withdraw quickly!"

Someone drank loudly.

When the men in black heard this, their expressions changed, and they quickly moved closer, preparing to retreat.

But Ah Bao sneered: "You're here now, so don't leave."

"It's hard for you to come to see your Majesty with such enthusiasm. If we let you leave peacefully like this, Your Majesty will blame us for not entertaining you well!"

The big knife in his hand chopped down a man in black again, and shouted: "Don't leave anyone behind, don't let anyone go."

The killing continues.

Exclamations, screams, and the sound of weapons clashing kept ringing out.

In the only ordinary house in the courtyard, Shen Lian was sleeping peacefully. His brows were raised and the corners of his mouth were smiling, as if he had had a good dream.

The night passed slowly like this.

When the rising sun dispels the darkness and the night ends, a new day finally arrives.

The dark clouds dispersed at some point, and the whole earth became bright.

Shen Lian slowly opened his eyes in the warm sunshine.

He stretched and stood up to dress with satisfaction.

When he opened the door, he saw Ah Bao standing outside.

At this time, Abao was the only one outside, the courtyard was as clean as ever, and everything was no different from before.

"Sir, why did you get up so early? It's still early. You can take a rest. Of course, you can also go to the east courtyard to get together with others." Abao said with a smile.

After I finished speaking, it was a really good suggestion.

However, Qin Wenyuan shook his head and said: "No, it's still early, let them rest more."

As he walked to the side to wash up, he asked: "Were there any guests in the west courtyard last night?"

Abao bared his teeth and smiled: "Yes, and there are quite a few of them, dozens of people."

"How was the reception?" Shen Lian nodded, not surprised at all. After all... that was the result he had deduced before going to bed.

Datang stole the fruits of those guys.

Those guys suffered heavy losses.

And as the initiator of all this, it would be strange if they didn't take revenge on themselves...

Especially today, when Li Shimin personally encouraged them, it can be said that last night was their last chance.

The main reason is that I had an accident last night, so today's ceremony will definitely not be able to go ahead as usual.

They also still have time to think of other solutions.

Therefore, last night was their last chance. With Shen Lian's understanding of them, they would definitely take action.

as expected.

Abao grinned and said: "No one left, we all stayed."

Shen Lian washed his face, took the towel, nodded and said, "Do you see what the solution is?"

Abao thought for a while and said: "They are all means of killing, and none of them are useless. It can be seen that they either make a living by killing people, or they are experienced soldiers."

"However, they probably do not come from the same force, and they do not cooperate with each other tacitly. Although there are many people, they sometimes accidentally hurt each other, which in turn restricts their actions."

"In short, there is some trouble, but not enough to make it difficult for us to deal with them. There are no casualties."

Shen Lian nodded slightly.

"It's not the same force, that means it shouldn't be the Beidou Society."

"Of course...the Beidou Society may also have helped secretly, otherwise it would be difficult for them to avoid the people patrolling at night."

"But... Beidou Society probably just uses them to test me, Mr. Qin, and doesn't really want to join forces with them."

"If you look at it this way, only a few countries are taking action."

"Are you angry?"

Shen Lian smiled and didn't care.

Abao said: "Sir, is it possible that you... know who it is?"

"Then are we going to cause trouble with them?"

Shen Lian shook his head and said calmly: "It's not necessary."

"They have lost. They must have paid a lot of energy and price for the coming of all nations to come to court, but the fruits were stolen by us, so now they can only be helpless and furious."

"We have all benefited, why don't we allow others to be a little stingy?"

"and….…"

Shen Lian's eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes flickered, and he said meaningfully: "Today, there are bigger fish, so these little shrimps really can't get into my eyes."

Shen Lian and Abao left their residence and headed towards the inn.

Late autumn mornings are always very busy.

Vendors have set up stalls on both sides of the street early, waiting for customers to come.

Farmers who make a living by farming are also heading out of the city one after another to harvest the fruits of a year of hard work.

The breakfast stall passing by gave off steaming heat and fragrance, which whetted Shen Lian's appetite.

Shen Lian moved his nose slightly and said with a smile: "Ah Bao, today is not going to be peaceful. Talking for a while will consume a lot of brain cells, so I think we should have a good meal to replenish our energy. What do you think? how?"

Abao touched his belly and said with a smile: "You are still awesome as an adult. Just for a meal, you can still say such high-end words that make people feel high-end and full of profound philosophy of life."

Listening to Ah Bao's completely illogical flattery, Shen Lian laughed.

He sat down directly and said: "Boss, four naan bread, two bowls of mutton soup, and some side dishes."

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment."

An enthusiastic voice responded quickly.

Shen Lian randomly chose a clean table and sat down.

Abao sat opposite Shen Lian.

Looking at the busy boss, the people sweating profusely while drinking soup, and the people coming and going with smiles on their faces, Abao couldn't help but sigh: "It's great!"

"What's good?" Shen Lian picked up a cup of tea and asked.

Xu Gou said: "This life is so good!"

"Peace and tranquility, people can make a better life with their own efforts and sweat, and their efforts will be rewarded. They don't have to worry about war, life and death, and live in beauty and stability. This kind of life... is really very good."

Shen Lian nodded lightly, leaning back, holding the tea cup in both hands, white mist curled up, hiding Shen Lian's face.

"In fact, what the people want is nothing more than a stable life and a fair environment."

"Live a stable life, don't worry about whether war will come at any time, and don't worry about the days when there will be no tomorrow."

"The environment is fair, hard work will be rewarded, hard work will eventually pay off, and there will be hope for the future."

"This is what the people want, and as long as the people's wants are met, the foundation of the Tang Dynasty will be extremely stable!"

"A stable and prosperous home and country will in turn make people's lives more stable."

"This is what complements each other! The people and the empire can never be separated! They will always belong to one body."

"So, what you see as a really good life is actually what we try our best to achieve!"

At this time, the stall owner brought the food up, and Shen Lian nodded slightly to express his gratitude.
