Chapter 1411: Detonating Andu and Assassinating the Crown Prince

Ren Ruyi's actions were very decisive and efficient. He easily infiltrated Zhuyiwei and found the current Zhuyiwei Zuo Shi. He forced him to tell him what he wanted to know, and then killed him to silence him.

All that was left was this: "Whoever injures Marquis Changqing will be put to death."

At the same time, Zhou Chen also went to the Andu branch of Liudaotang and collected all the intelligence information about Queen Zhaojie.

Ning Yuanzhou and others took Yang Ying to the Yong'an Tower where Emperor Wu was imprisoned. However, only Yang Ying entered the Yong'an Tower to see Emperor Wu, and the others could only wait outside.

It’s a pity that Ning Yuanzhou and others went there with hope, but the answer Yang Ying brought them made them very disappointed.

Even though they had known that Emperor Wu would threaten them, they still couldn't help feeling sad when it really happened.

The Liudaotang served their country, and the Tiandao brothers even sacrificed their lives to protect Emperor Wu, and almost no body was left. But in the end, they got such an ending. They couldn't even rest in peace after death, and their reputation was used as a bargaining chip. How can it not be heartbreaking.

However, they are loyal and trustworthy people after all. Even though they feel sad, they still haven't given up the purpose of this mission.

After Ren Ruyi killed Chen Gui, the left ensign of the Zhuyi Guard, he quickly returned to the delegation’s residence and met up with Zhou Chen.

"Is the matter resolved?"

"It's half solved. Chen Gui is not the mastermind behind the murder of Wudu Branch. If it's not him, then it must be someone else. I killed Chen Gui today. I think she must have been alerted. Even if I don't go looking for her, she will probably come to me on her own initiative."

Zhou Chen nodded, then pointed to a pile of documents on the table and said, "This is information about Empress Zhaojie. Although there is no definite cause of death, after reading this, you will probably understand who the culprit is."

Ren Ruyi's face suddenly changed, and then he carefully looked through the content summarized by Zhou Chen.

After a long time, she let it go with a gloomy expression and her eyes became extremely cold.

"Emperor An, the eldest prince, and even the second prince and the queen's mother's family..."

Zhou Chen sighed, "The matter is now very clear. Emperor An was aggressive in the past, but the resources of the An Kingdom were limited after all, so he colluded with Bei Pan, bought war horses and other supplies, and provided Bei Pan with countless resources. This was known to Empress Zhaojie. After Empress Zhaojie's persuasion failed, a rift arose between the two..."

"In the end, not only did they spread the news that Empress Zhaojie had gone mad, they also wanted to kill her. But after all, she was the empress of a country, so she could not just surrender. However, the betrayal of her own son, her parents and her brothers made her completely heartbroken, so she burned herself to death in Yaoyue Tower..."

Ren Ruyi's face was filled with chills: "They really deserve to die, and the Second Prince is even more unforgivable. The Empress regards him as the most important, but he actually helped Emperor An to kill the Empress. He is simply not a human being."

Zhou Chen also felt that the second prince was extremely stupid. Emperor An and the eldest prince wanted the queen dead for their own purposes, but the second prince was different. The queen was his biggest backer, but he ended up destroying his mother's life and losing his biggest backer.

When Emperor An asked him to make him the crown prince, he actually foolishly agreed. How stupid was he?

However, when I think about the plot, after this guy was exiled to Tianmen Pass, he actually colluded with Beipan and let Beipan enter the pass. You can tell that this person has no bottom line and is worse than pigs and dogs. He deserves to die without a burial place.

"What are you going to do? No matter what you do, I will help you."

Ren Ruyi pondered for a long time before speaking: "Whether it is Emperor An, the First Prince or the Second Prince, they are not so easy to kill. Your delegation is here to rescue Emperor Wu. If I make too much noise before you, it will be a big obstacle to your rescue. You can't be implicated for my sake."

During the days she spent together from Wudu to Andu, in addition to marrying Zhou Chen, she also established a certain friendship with other members of the delegation, especially Yang Ying, whom she regarded as her own apprentice.

She wanted revenge, but she also didn't want to implicate the delegation.

Zhou Chen gently stroked Ren Ruyi's cheek. This seemingly cold assassin was actually the most sentimental and the one that made people feel the most sorry for him.

"You are my wife, we are husband and wife, your business is my business. As for saving Emperor Yang Xingyuan, Ning Yuanzhou and I have already made a plan, you don't have to worry."

Two days later, just as Ren Ruyi had said, someone from the Zhuyi Guard took the initiative to leave a secret message and asked her to meet him.

After telling Zhou Chen, the two of them decided that Ren Ruyi would show up to meet them, while Zhou Chen would hide in the dark, ready to provide support at any time.

Ren Ruyi met with Jialing, the right emissary of the Zhuyi Guard, as agreed. Jialing knew very well how powerful Ren Ruyi was, so she pretended to surrender and beg for mercy. However, how could Ren Ruyi be deceived by her? In the end, the two sides fell out and went to war.

Even though Jialing had made sufficient preparations, she misjudged the situation. Ren Ruyi used to be a loner, but now, she is no longer alone.

When Zhou Chen eliminated the hidden forces she had arranged around him and appeared beside Ren Ruyi, her face suddenly changed.

"who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I am her husband. If you want to deal with my wife, I, as her husband, certainly cannot stand idly by."

Jialing and some people in the Zhuyi Guard who knew Ren Ruyi found it unbelievable when they heard Zhou Chen's words. Ren Xin actually got married?

But Jia Ling's eyes became even fiercer: "Since you are husband and wife, I will send you off together, go!"

The battle broke out again, but even with the combined efforts of Zhou Chen and Ren Ruyi, they were still no match for the elite among the Zhuyi Guards.

And with Ren Ruyi's mercy and persuasion, many of the Zhuyiwei troops chose to flee after some hesitation. In the end, only Jialing was left.

Ren Ruyi got the answer she wanted from Jialing, so she gave her a decent answer in the end.

Because he and Zhou Chen had read the information about Empress Zhaojie before and had deduced many causes and effects, so although Ren Ruyi was shocked by what Jialing said, he was mentally prepared and was not hit hard, but his heart became colder.

"The struggle for imperial power and the ups and downs in officialdom are really unbearable to watch."

Ren Ruyi was really disheartened. After being a tool in power struggles for so many years, she was really disgusted with it at this moment and didn't want to be involved in it anymore.

"Once we're done with this, we'll go travel the world. No matter how chaotic the world is, if you want to intervene, then intervene. If you don't want to intervene, then we'll just live our own lives."

"Okay, I don't want to wait any longer, and I don't want to stay here any longer either."

"Then let's make quick work of it."

After a few days, Yang Ying finally met Emperor An, but the result of the negotiations was not good. Emperor An deliberately delayed and never gave a definite answer. The delegation was in someone else's territory and could only endure it on the surface, but secretly, Ning Yuanzhou and his men had already begun their plan.

At night, Zhou Chen and Ren Ruyi gathered with Ning Yuanzhou and his group to discuss their actions. They discussed for more than an hour before finalizing the plan and then left.

In fact, Anguo is not peaceful at the moment. First, there was the great victory in the Tianmen Pass battle, which made Marquis Changqing famous. Then there was the marriage with the Duke of Chu. Then, the eldest prince and the second prince were fighting for the position of crown prince.

Now the envoys of Wu Kingdom have arrived in Andu again. Some things have happened in Andu recently, so Andu is relatively calm on the surface, but there have been undercurrents in secret.

A few days later, a piece of news shocked the entire Andu. From the royal officials to the common people, everyone was shocked by the news.

The streets and alleys of Andu were full of discussions about the sensational news which had started last night and spread throughout the city in just a few hours.

Five years ago, Empress Zhaojie was murdered by Emperor An, his son and ministers. Not only that, it was also revealed that Emperor An was colluding with Bei Pan.

Although it is not known whether this matter is true or not, after it spread, it immediately caused heated discussions throughout the city because the nature of these two incidents was really too serious.

Empress Zhaojie has always had a good reputation in Anguo. When she was framed and went crazy, many people felt sorry for her. Now that the truth has been exposed, it has naturally attracted the sympathy and anger of countless people.

The truth behind Empress Zhaojie's death has been a hot topic, but it is less discussed than Emperor An's collusion with Bei Pan.

Beipan has been the enemy of the Central Plains for generations, especially Anguo, which is adjacent to Beipan. Whenever Beipan invades the Central Plains, it will inevitably pass through Anguo. Anguo has suffered the most looting and massacres, so the degree of hatred of the people of Anguo towards Beipan is definitely ranked first among the nine countries in the Central Plains.

So when the people of Andu learned that Emperor An was actually colluding with Bei Pan, they did not dare to say anything openly, but they all began to question his majesty in their hearts.

Inside the palace, Emperor An kicked over the table and roared in anger.

"Who is it? Who is it?"

This was one of the biggest taboos that Andy had covered up. In the beginning, he even killed his first wife, the queen, for this matter. But now it was revealed and spread throughout Andu overnight. This was definitely well prepared.

To be able to spread the news in such a short time, this person's influence in Andu must be extraordinary. He thought of countless suspects, but he couldn't be sure.

Those who knew about this matter at the time had basically been executed by him, and those who were still alive would never leak it out.

The ones who spread the news were naturally Zhou Chen and his team. There were still some spies in the Andu branch of Liudaotang. Ren Ruyi also had some people in Andu, plus some people sent by Jin Meiniang. Everyone went out together, so they were able to spread the news overnight.

The purpose of doing this is, of course, to create chaos. As long as Andu is in chaos, things will be more convenient.

When this happened, Emperor An was furious and directly mobilized the imperial guards from all departments to start eliminating those who talked the most. At the same time, he gave a death order to the Zhuyi Guards, asking them to investigate the mastermind behind spreading the news. If they could not find out, he would let the commander of the Zhuyi Guards, Deng Hui, end his life.

As Emperor An's order was issued, the chaotic Andu suddenly became much quieter, but this was only the calm before the storm, and now all forces were on guard.

Everyone can see that this incident is aimed at Emperor An, and the mastermind behind this will definitely have follow-up actions, so many people are waiting for the mastermind's next move, because they all know that with such a big commotion, the mastermind behind this will definitely have further actions.

Emperor An had the same idea, so he specially arranged people to keep a close eye on the residence of the Wu State delegation.

He also suspected the Wu State delegation. Although he felt that the possibility was extremely low, he still had to be on guard. After all, the incident happened shortly after the Wu State delegation entered Andu.

Ning Yuanzhou and others also knew that someone was watching them, so they had not taken any action. Only Ren Ruyi and Zhou Chen acted in secret.

Shortly after the incident of Emperor An's collusion with Bei Pan was exposed, another major event occurred that shocked Andu.

The eldest prince of Anguo, King of Hedong Li Shouji, was assassinated. A dragon robe was found at the place where he died. It turned out that the eldest prince had kept the dragon robe privately.

When Emperor An learned about this, he fainted from anger on the spot. This incident also caused a violent earthquake in the Anguo court.

Deng Hui, the commander of the Zhuyi Guard, was beaten and kicked by Emperor An and was almost dragged out and beheaded.

At the critical moment of life and death, Deng Hui suddenly came up with a quick idea and shouted that he knew who the murderer was.

"Who is it?" Emperor An's tearing roar echoed in the hall.

"Former Red Guard Left Envoy, Ren Xin."

When Emperor An heard the name Deng Hui said, he was confused at first, stunned for a while, and then he widened his eyes in disbelief.

"Ren Xin? Ren Xin, is that Ren Xin? Didn't she die a long time ago?"

"Your Majesty, she is not dead. Not long ago, Chen Gui, the left envoy of the Zhuyi Guard, was assassinated in the Zhuyi Guard station. I suspected it was Ren Xin at the time, but I didn't have definite evidence. Now that such a thing has happened, the only person who has the ability to assassinate and would risk his life to do such a thing is Ren Xin, Your Majesty..."

As Deng Hui shouted himself hoarse, Emperor An avoided the death penalty and began to think about what he had said.

It was indeed as Deng Hui said. If Ren Xin was the mastermind behind the scenes, everything would be clear. Ren Xin was Empress Zhaojie's man. He wanted to kill Ren Xin at the beginning, and all these years, he always thought that Ren Xin was dead.

If Ren Xin had not died and returned to Andu, he would indeed do such a crazy thing to avenge Queen Zhaojie.

But what he couldn't understand was that how could a mere Ren Xin have such great abilities? Assassination was one thing, but making the news spread throughout Andu overnight was not something that Ren Xin could do alone, so there must be someone helping Ren Xin.

But who is it?

"Investigate, investigate again, find Ren Xin, and bring her to me. I want to see her in person."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will do it immediately."

Deng Hui crawled out of the hall, then mobilized the entire Zhuyi Guard to search for Ren Xin.

The eldest prince Li Shouji was indeed assassinated by Ren Ruyi. To be precise, it was a joint assassination by Ren Ruyi and Zhou Chen, but it was Ren Ruyi who took action in the end, while Zhou Chen cooperated from the side.

After assassinating Li Shouji, Zhou Chen and Ren Ruyi began their next move.
