Father can be an enemy to the country

The drums were beaten at midnight, and Niu Fang, who had gone out to do the final reconnaissance, came back and reported: "The people in Ziyun Tower have stopped moving, but His Royal Highness King Lu has not come out either."

"It's normal. They haven't seen each other for many years, but they can't sleep on the same bed for a long talk?" Tao Zhenren said unconcernedly: "We have to shoot with an arrow on the string, no matter whether he comes out or not! Let the brothers be careful when we do it. Just click.”

"Hey, okay." Niu Fang nodded, then turned to look at the more than two hundred believers in the courtyard who had changed into Yanzhou Guard uniforms, and said to them in a deep voice:

"Tonight, in order to protect important people, Prince Lu's Mansion has set up two posts. However, because a large number of guards were sent by Prince Lu to find medicine guides, a thousand troops had to be temporarily transferred from the Yanzhou Central Guard to supplement them."

"So, the two parties don't know each other." After a pause, he ordered: "This gives us an opportunity to take advantage of. We will dress up as soldiers and horses of the Yanzhou Central Guard and approach Ziyun Tower!"

"The steward of Ziyun Tower belongs to us, and he will try to let us in. Just follow me then." Niu Fang pointed to the map hanging on the wall and said, "This is the Ziyun Tower he drew. According to the layout map inside, Zhu Zhen and Zhu Xiongying live in the main dormitory, we went straight here after entering - these two people are our targets!"

Niu Fang pointed to the two portraits next to the map. The one above is a middle-aged man with a fierce face, and the other is a boy who looks a bit like a child with Down syndrome...

"These two portraits were copied secretly by our people. They were painted a bit hastily. Let's use them as a reference." After finishing speaking, Niu Fang pulled off the two paintings: "Forget it, I will show you on the spot when the time comes."

Fortunately, he finally saw the true faces of the sixth prince and the emperor's grandson today. Otherwise, if he relied on these two paintings, he would most likely identify the wrong person.

After giving the instructions, when he turned back to ask for instructions from his master, he saw that Tao Zhenren had also put on the military armor and shaved off his beard.

"Master, what is this?" Niu Fang said in surprise.

"I will go with you." Tao Zhenren said calmly: "If we succeed, we will live together, if we fail, we will die together."

The morale of the believers was immediately boosted. There is no better way to motivate people than to take the lead and lead the army.

"Let's go." After saying that, he led the believers and lined up out of Dengying Pavilion.

Two hundred believers dressed up as night guards and walked swaggering through the corridors and alleys of the palace. They met the palace guards many times, but none of them conducted any interrogation on them. They just let them easily reach the high wall on the north side of Ziyun Tower.

At this time, a fireman emerged from the shadows in the corner and walked towards the team.

The fireman whispered: "Are you just here?"

"Who are you?" Niu Fang looked at the other person warily, and even raised a lantern to shine on his face. He couldn't see anything clearly.

"I was sent by Eunuch Mu." The fireman dispelled his doubts with one sentence:

"Things are ever-changing, but my heart is bright."

"Have mercy on me, the world, there are so many worries." Niu Fang responded, and the two sides were connected, and now they no longer doubted each other's identity.

The little eunuch said softly: "Ziyun Tower has an unused side door. Their guards don't know about it and they don't guard it."

"Okay, take us there." Niu Fang said happily. Then he followed the little eunuch around to the deep corridor, and he saw an inconspicuous little door.

"When the craftsmen built the building, they opened a small door here to facilitate the transportation of materials, so it is closest to Ziyun Tower. It should have been blocked when it was completed, but somehow it was forgotten." The little eunuch introduced in a low voice.

As he spoke, he pushed open the small door, pointed to the pavilion not far ahead and said, "That's the Ziyun Tower."

"Come on!" Tao Zhenren shouted. Leading his followers to approach Ziyun Tower, his heart was pounding!

I have been waiting for ten years and finally got this opportunity! Not for someone's rebel cause, but to seek revenge on a person! Only by killing that boy with his own hands can he have the face to meet his brothers under Jiuquanxia.

After a while, the group arrived at the entrance of the main hall. Under the dim light, they could see the three powerful characters "Ziyun Tower" on the plaque. Under the plaque, there were also armored guards standing in formation.

Niu Fang looked at his master, and Tao Zhenren pointed to both sides. The two divided their forces as planned. Tao Zhenren led most of the troops and moved in from the west to attack. Niu Fang led 20 people and moved in from the east corner to feign an attack.

As long as either side starts fighting, the other side will immediately take action, causing flowers on both sides to make the enemy focus on one and miss the other!

It was the middle of the night when people were most sleepy. Although the guards stood motionless, their vigilance was very low.

As a result, Tao Zhenren and his party all entered the bed, but they were still not found!

Finally, there was only a curtain between him and the enemy he had longed for. He suppressed his excitement, stretched out his trembling hands, and suddenly pulled open the curtain, and the believers rushed in with weapons in hand.

As soon as they entered, the believers rushed to the big rosewood bed decorated with dragons and phoenixes, raised their swords and spears and stabbed hard.

There was a ping-pong-pong-pong-pong, but no scream was heard. Tao Zhenren stopped his men in a strange way, stepped forward and pulled off the quilt to take a look, and he was stunned.

I saw that there was no real person under the quilt at all, but the kind of paper figure burned for the dead. The paper figure has been stabbed to pieces. There were also two big holes on his face, which happened to be where his eyes were. They looked weird.

All the believers were also shocked. They were originally ignorant and superstitious people, otherwise they would not have believed in lies and died. Seeing this, I was so frightened that I thought Lao Liu was transformed from the dead...

Tao Zhenren remained awake. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Niu Fang's shrill scream from not far away: "Master, they are all fake! Ah..."

Before he could finish his words, they turned into screams.

At this time, the surrounding curtains were torn down one after another, and countless armed guards poured out from all directions, surrounding Tao Zhenren and his group.

The believers woke up at this time and began to resist crazily. They all thought very clearly that they would die on the spot. If you surrender, you will not only be tortured, but your family will be implicated. Either way, everyone will die in the end, so it is better to fight on the spot and take away one without losing money, and take away two with a profit.

But although they are highly skilled in martial arts, their individual strength is completely worthless in front of the army that cooperates with them tacitly. Moreover, these guards are specially trained for indoor combat, and have a set of formations specifically adapted to melee combat in small spaces.

The guards of the Ming army formed a group of three and formed a Z-shaped formation. The one in the front was responsible for attacking, and the two at the back were responsible for defense and creating conditions for the main attacker to kill the enemy.

On the whole, the various groups of Ming army guards can also support each other, like an efficient and sophisticated killing machine, frantically harvesting the lives of enemy troops.

In just a short cup of tea, all one hundred and eighty assassins were killed. Even Tao Zhenren was seriously injured and fell to the ground and was captured.

The assassination he had placed high hopes on ended hastily...
