Chapter 478: Failed Assassination

Although they had already shot so many arrows, it didn't mean that Xing Tianze would definitely be wiped out.

Moreover, the appearance of the dozen or so men in black undoubtedly showed that tonight's task would not be completed so easily, and Xing Tianze must have been prepared.

If they continue to attack, they are likely to be encircled, and if the movement is too large, it will attract the guards in the Five Kings' Mansion, and if they want to retreat again, they will have no chance at all.

But if they retreated at this time, they were not sure that Xing Tianze was already dead, and there was no way to deal with the emperor when they went back.

There is only one possibility for the result of ineffective work, and the treatment of exterminating the Nine Clans is not what they want.

Therefore, this dilemma made the man in black at the head not know how to give the order?

At this moment, a large number of black-clothed people suddenly appeared behind him, each with a thumb-wide strip of red cloth tied to their left hand, and the cold sword in their hand was glowing with cold light, and the moon in the sky was suddenly obscured by dark clouds.

The battle is about to break out, Tao Mingxi's small courtyard has become a battlefield of life and death, with the appearance of swords and swords, hundreds of black-clothed people can't be ruthless, they are all dead soldiers, there is no slightest grievance and hatred, just simply each for its master.

It's just that the result of the battle is a one-sided situation, and Xing Tianze's dead soldiers are all honed from the battlefield, and their skills are naturally not comparable to the emperor's subordinates.

The battle lasted for nearly a quarter of an hour, and dozens of corpses lay strewn in the courtyard before the palace guards appeared to clean up the battlefield.

At the same time, the study room of the Five Princes' Mansion was lit up with candles, Xing Tianze and Tao Mingxi and his party were sitting on the table, and the princes and princesses that the men in black saw before were all pretended to be by others.

Schrödinger, Situ Lei, and Situ Feng's faces were extremely gloomy at this time.

Although the three of them had long thought of supporting Xing Tianze, they would definitely be attacked and suppressed by the emperor, but no one expected that the emperor would be so ruthless, and he directly sent a dead soldier to assassinate him.

And the information of Xue Mansion and Situ Mansion was quickly sent, and all the people who stayed in the mansion died, and those dead soldiers can be said to be real chickens and dogs.

Xing Tianze gave Zhu'er a look and motioned for her to pour tea for Schrödinger and the others.

Traceless frowned slightly, he could expect that since the emperor had already made up his mind to kill, it meant that tonight was destined to be an extraordinary night.

Those dead soldiers sent to Situ Mansion and Xue Mansion will soon come to the Five Kings' Mansion, and it will not be until then that tonight's battle will really begin.

"What should we do next, the old man still hopes that you will not beat around the bush." Schrödinger's tone was extremely gloomy.

Although after receiving Xing Tianze's notice this afternoon, he arranged for all the high-level leaders of the Xue family to leave as soon as possible, but those who died in the Xue Mansion tonight were still his clansmen.

The emperor's act of not remembering the old feelings is no different from the whole house, so Schrödinger no longer has any thoughts of loyalty to the monarch in his heart, he only thinks about how to protect himself with the help of the strength of the five princes.

In addition, Situ Lei stared closely at the tea in the cup, his attitude towards the five princes can only be described as grateful, after the article on the imperial examination had problems, Xing Tianze took the initiative to deal with this matter by himself, and today it was because of his notice that the entire Situ family survived.

Situ Feng held the teacup tightly, his body began to tremble slightly, although this was not the first time he had experienced assassination, but it was the first time he knew that the emperor had sent a dead soldier to put their father and son to death.

Tonight, he really felt that the path of supporting the five princes to play with the emperor was much more difficult than he imagined, and the tragedy of it could not allow them to make the slightest mistake, otherwise they would only end up in a different place.

In addition, what made him even more frightened was Xing Tianze's strength at this time, although he didn't do it directly tonight, but he was able to accurately grasp the emperor's every move? This is enough to prove that his people have already infiltrated the palace.

Xing Tianze's gaze swept over the faces of Situ Lei and the others one by one, and the Fifth Princes naturally didn't know what they were thinking in their hearts.

Then Xing Tianze glanced at Wuxian and said that he didn't want to completely tear his face with the emperor at the moment, although the emperor now wanted to kill them.

But after all, the emperor is the lord of a country, as long as they act carefully on weekdays and don't give anyone any tricks, even the emperor can't help them.

Now that Xingzhao has two strong enemies outside the Qingcang Kingdom and the Fuyang Kingdom, the existence of the Heavenly Hell Organization makes it difficult for them to sleep, once they compete with the emperor, then it will give the enemy a chance to kill him.

Qing Cang and Fu Yang are still a little scared now, and they won't rush to send troops so much, but the Heavenly Hell Organization is a poisonous snake lurking in the shadows, and no one knows when they will bite out a fatal bite.

Therefore, it is imperative that hell be pulled out of the shadows!

Schrödinger frowned slightly when he heard this, he naturally understood who Xing Tianze was talking about, although the Situ family controlled the scholar clan in the Xingzhao Kingdom, they had not had any dealings with the Heavenly Prison Organization.

In contrast, the intelligence network mastered by the Xue family was much more important, and at the same time, Schrödinger also heard the meaning of blame from Xing Tianze's words.

Why is Hell so difficult? The five princes obviously have the strength but can't exterminate them, and the Xue family has an unshirkable responsibility for this, because their intelligence is not in place.

At this moment, Wuxian also opened his mouth to ask Schrödinger and the others not to panic too much, as soon as the matter passed tonight, they should be very clear about the emperor's meaning, so what posture should be taken in the future, presumably they are also very clear in their hearts.

If they couldn't be sure that the mansion they lived in could protect their lives, there were still a lot of empty rooms in the Five Kings' Mansion. You can temporarily let them be wronged.

After all, even if it is the fifth prince, there is no way to guarantee that every time he grasps the Qingcang is the first time, if the emperor is surprised by the next time, then the result is very difficult to explain.

As soon as Traceless's words landed, Situ Feng turned his head and stared at him tightly.

The people sitting here were all smart people, so they could naturally hear some other things from Wuji's words, and if they lived in the Five Princes' Mansion, they were undoubtedly making it clear to the emperor that the Situ family and the Xue family were going to follow him.

If this is the case, what they have encountered may be even more severe, but if they refuse, how can they know and explain to Xing Tianze at this time?
