Inside the Imperial Palace. Empress Ling after hearing the killer's return. Scream bloody murder. She flicked her sleeves and shouted angrily, "Waste. There is such a great opportunity. You only killed one woman from the prince's side. You ....... you guys are ....... hum."

Empress Ling was so angry that she couldn't speak. But. in her heart. Whether it's an open killing. Or kill in secret. The prince must die. Otherwise.......... she wouldn't dare to imagine it anymore. Then she calmly asked, "Who are the people hiding around the prince? Why can't you ....... him three or four times?"

Empress Ling made a "kill" gesture to the killer below. There was a vicious coldness in his eyes.

The killer replied, "Back to the queen. The subordinates really couldn't find out who was around the prince. The results have always been just better trained close guards. But judging from the process of fighting. My subordinates have never encountered such a strong opponent."

Empress Ling listened to the killer's reply. I'm thinking about it. Then. A twenty-eight-year-old. A man dressed like a eunuch stepped out of the back curtain. Empress Ling turned to look at him. The expression immediately softened a lot. I saw that this man dressed like a father-in-law was really handsome. At this point he was straight. There are no low-hanging eyebrows and eyes that a person in the palace should have. A minion gesture with a nod of his head. Instead, she looked directly at Queen Ling, who was half-old.

The man looked at Empress Ling's recent worry about the assassination of the crown prince. Even his appearance has lost its former look. He knew that Empress Ling loved beauty the most. At this time. But she no longer has any intention of looking at the flowers and the moon.

I saw the man say slowly: "It seems that the hidden side of the prince must be a well-trained organization. Thus. Those guards are not just guards. It is highly likely that another organization sent a killer to escort the prince. And. The strength will be no less than yours. You don't even know the details of your opponents. No wonder they fail time and time again."

Empress Ling listened to the man's analysis. I felt relieved in my heart. She thought, "Only he is the only one who is truly defending himself. Only he is united with himself. People who share the noble and the low. It's really a good jade lang in my heart."

Empress Ling asked the man, "Yulang. So what should we do? The matter is already imminent. There's no time left for us to track down the identities of those killers. You know. If the crown prince is allowed to enter Kyoto smoothly. There's no place for us after that."

Empress Ling was full of trust and dependence on this so-called father-in-law. And this father-in-law named Yulang is actually a courtier who has been having an affair with Queen Ling for many years.

Yulang's father-in-law is naturally very aware of the stakes. He made the old emperor gradually become seriously ill. In order to take down this Jiangshan Sheji. He thought: "At this time, the power of the DPRK and China is being reined in by the queen one by one. Other words. The queen is in power. This world is the queen's. And the queen only listens to her own words . Then the world will be equal to your own. Even if the queen doesn't say so. I will try my best to get rid of the prince. Otherwise. How can I be willing to spit out a piece of fat that is already in my mouth and give it to others?"

Father-in-law Yulang said to Empress Ling decisively: "Since the matter has reached the point where there is no way back. For the sake of the day. We're going to have to do everything we have to ambush all the way to the end. Let them not stop for a moment along the way. Until the crown prince is killed. No matter how much manpower and material resources are spent. Be sure to get rid of the prince before he enters Kyoto."

Empress Ling was very satisfied with the plan of her good friend Yulang. I didn't expect his strategy to coincide with his own. Her heart once again confirmed her thoughts about Gyokuro.

Empress Ling instructed the killer, "Just do what your father-in-law says. No matter what method you use. All I need to do is hear the death of the Prince."

Xuanyuan Rui guarded Lu Xin until dawn the next day, and Lu Xin did not wake up. Granny Shen came over early in the morning to check Lu Xin's pulse. Then he said to Xuanyuan Rui: "His Royal Highness the Prince. No need to worry. Miss Xin'er was already weak. This time it hurt so badly. It will take three or two days to wake up. I'm afraid I'll have to wait a few days to get there."

After Xuanyuan Rui listened. I was a little relieved. Uncle De said on the side: "Your Highness. You go take a break. There's an old slave to take care of everything here."

Xuanyuan Rui looked out the door and it was already daylight. And. The farmhouse is heavily guarded inside and out. I don't think the enemy will be in such a hurry to come back. Thereupon. He nodded to Uncle De and went to rest.

After returning to the room, Xuanyuan Rui did not rest. Rather, thinking about what happened last night. He thought. I have reached the point of life and death with Queen Ling. If you don't have a coping strategy. I'm afraid it's rare to have peace along the way. Thereupon. He summoned Chen Qing and Chen Ping.......

Night. Xuanyuan Rui still came over to take care of Lu Xin. He sat in front of the bed and looked at her quietly. During the day. The maid has already changed into clean and tidy clothes for Lu Xin. The hair on the temples was put down. Well combed. Very neat. The delicate facial features on the face bring out a serene and sweet look because he is asleep. The whole thing is a picture of Sleeping Beauty. It's impossible to leave the sight.

In the dead of night. This is the best time for people to sleep soundly. Xuanyuan Rui sat quietly like this. It seems to be waiting for something to come. The guards outside the door have just changed. It seems that the quieter it is, the more it feels dangerous. Xuanyuan listened carefully to all the movements outside the door.

He thought, "Empress Ling. You're really more anxious than Hongu imagined. And that's not going to stop for a day. It's even starting to attack again."

Suddenly. Waiting outside the door for someone to break in. The killer at the head said, "Who can kill the prince. 10,000 taels of gold."

Xuanyuan Rui snorted coldly and said, "The life of this palace is too worthless."

After all that's said. Several killers rushed in.

These killers are all masters of hand-to-hand combat. I saw that they were all holding short daggers with sharp edges. Moreover. Each dagger is smeared with a layer of poison - Danshen powder. As long as a little flesh hurts a person, it will poison it.

Of course, Xuanyuan Rui knew that these killers would definitely use the methods of the sideways. He tried his best to dodge. You can let him be as strong as he is in martial arts. For a while, it was difficult to defeat everyone with both hands. After dozens of rounds of quick foliage of the killers. Xuanyuan Rui finally got in a situation where he couldn't dodge. I was stabbed in the left chest by the killer's short dagger. Xuanyuan Rui immediately fought back. Knock the killer back. so as not to let the dagger pierce too deeply. He quickly pulled out the dagger, and his chest was dripping with blood.

At this time, the guards who were protecting Xuanyuan Rui had already been alarmed. Chen Qing led them to kill them quickly. When they saw that Regulus was wounded. All frightened.

Xuanyuan Rui ordered: "None will be left."

The killers saw that the prince was wounded. Poisoned by the daggers they smeared. Finally, the assassination of the crown prince was successful. He immediately began to flee. But he didn't expect the prince's men to kill him so quickly. Surrounded them. After a bit of a struggle. Fight and retreat. In the end, two people were able to escape the siege.

Afterwards. Xuanyuan Rui sat in a chair. Everyone saw blood dripping from the prince's chest. After he repatriated some people. Only Uncle De was left. Chen Qing and Chen Ping brothers.

Uncle De hurriedly walked over to check the injuries for Xuanyuan Rui. When Uncle De slowly removed the blood bag from Xuanyuan Rui's clothes. Tiger skin. and silk vest after. Xuanyuan Rui's chest revealed a large area of smooth skin. There was not the slightest scar.

Uncle De and Chen Qing both secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Uncle De said, "Your Highness. It's a dangerous one. If you have a good case. How can the old slave be worthy of the queen mother of the past? Your Highness. Don't take that risk next time."

Chen Ping smiled and said to Uncle De, "Uncle De. You're such an old fool. Your Highness is so wise and powerful. And. It is the destiny of the Son of Heaven. There will be the gods to protect you. What if?"

Xuanyuan Rui listened to them. I couldn't help but smile. Chen Qing also said: "Uncle De, please rest assured. His Royal Highness was also prepared to risk his life this time. For the sake of doing it once and for all. Otherwise. Take Queen Ling as a person. We're going to hunt us down. As the so-called. Open guns are easy to dodge. Hidden arrows are hard to defend against. If you don't cut off Queen Ling's mind like this. Your Highness may not have entered the capital before you really have a "just in case".

Xuanyuan Rui said to the three of them, "This matter must be hidden from the others. Let's just go according to plan."

Early the next morning. There was a howling cry from Xuanyuan Rui's room. On the bed lay a corpse that looked exactly like Xuanyuan Rui. Then Uncle De conveyed to everyone that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had been assassinated. Unfortunately, he was seriously injured and died of poisoning. Time. The whole team was grieving. This death made Xuanyuan Rui's concubines almost crazy. Go to pieces. Immediately fainted a few.

A letter from Uncle De. Let people be sent to the palace quickly. Explain the matter to the emperor. And inside the palace. Empress Ling had already received the news of Xuanyuan Rui's assassination from the killer who had fled back. After she listened. There was not much joy on his face. I was relieved.

But. She thought. That's what she's doing. Never get what you want. You won't get it. What's more. The only one who fights with himself is a prince who hasn't even grown his wings yet. I never took him into account.

Now. Empress Ling was thinking, "If you let the old emperor know about this. Maybe I'm going to get sick and die. That's it. The world of Yu Liguo. Except for yourself. Who else dares to rob . Then he and Yulang can live and fly together."

The more Empress Ling thought about it. The more proud I am in my heart. I began to fantasize about a better future.
