Emperor: When will the Seventh Prince rebel? I will open the city gates to welcome him.

"Since there are some things you dare not say, then step back first!"

"Yes! Your Majesty, I will take my leave now." Eunuch Lu said with a sense of relief.

After Eunuch Lu left.

Emperor Dingwen called out softly.

"Zhou Changzhi!"

The commander of the Jinyi Secret Guards quickly arrived at the Qianqing Palace.

"His Majesty!"

"Have you found out where those killers were sent from?" Emperor Dingwen said lightly.

"I have found out that these more than one hundred killers are from the Rakshasa Assassination Hall." said the tall and burly Jinyi secret guard.

"Rakshasa Assassination Hall? When did Crown Prince Hongze become involved with Rakshasa Assassination Hall?"

"Your Majesty, my humble servant has found out that this organization is related to Queen Zhu."

"What?" Emperor Dingwen shouted angrily, "How can the Queen, who is the mother of the country, be related to the assassin organization? You don't need to mention this matter again, leave!"

"Follow the order!"

The Jinyi secret guards left the Qianqing Palace.

"Pei Chu, you should go out too! I'm tired!"

"It's the Emperor!"

The young eunuch Wei Peichu also left the Qianqing Palace. The Qianqing Palace was empty at this time. Emperor Dingwen picked up a cup of fragrant tea and drank it slowly.

He exhaled and said slowly:

"The Queen didn't hesitate to use the Luosha Assassination Hall for Hongze! Humph! For the sake of imperial power, no one is a pushover."

"Xuan'er! It's not that father won't help you, nor is it that father feels guilty towards your mother. It's just that if you ever ascend to the throne one day in the future, you will understand how much blood and gore you need to go through to sit on the throne."

Emperor Dingwen would not stop Queen Zhu's behavior.

All the assassins sent out were killed, which only further proved that Hongxuan's talent and wisdom were not even as good as that of the emperor himself.

Kunning Palace

Queen Zhu sat high on the phoenix throne.

There was a palace maid waiting on both sides.

Kneeling in front of her was a beautiful woman in a purple dress.

"Wan Ning! Why did the assassination fail even though we sent out a hundred assassins? This has never happened before."

Guan Wanning said in a gentle voice, "Reporting to Her Majesty the Queen! I don't know how the King of Zhenbei managed to grasp the movements of our assassins in advance, which led to the failure of this operation."

"As assassins from the Luosha Assassination Hall, they were discovered in advance. Isn't this a very ridiculous thing?"

Queen Zhu said reprimandingly.

The palace maid beside her had white silk ready in her hands.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me! Your Majesty, please forgive me! At that time, all the Silver Killers were on missions and were not at the base!"

Guan Wanning explained:

"I have warned you many times, but you, the Luosha Assassination Hall, didn't even send out the Silver Assassin. Now you are ruining my plan. This queen will only give you one chance. If you can't assassinate the King of Zhenbei, don't return to Kyoto. Do you understand?"

"I understand. I will personally carry out the mission this time and will definitely kill the King of Zhenbei!"

"Well! Then I will trust you temporarily."

"Thank you, Queen, for not killing me!"

Guan Wanning hurriedly stood up and quickly left Kunning Palace.

Prince's Mansion,

Prince Hongze angrily threw the precious porcelain in his hand, which was only used by nobles, to the ground: "Waste! A bunch of waste! More than a hundred assassins were killed by Hongxuan, waste!"

Crown Prince Hongze never expected that Hongxuan would be so powerful.

The more powerful Hongxuan became, the more Crown Prince Hongze felt that his throne would be taken away by Hongxuan.

"Eunuch Li! Has the Queen Mother replied? What is the reason?"

"Reporting to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! The maidservant beside the Queen has just told me that the last time they sent out all the bronze assassins, and this time the hall master Guan Wan'er will definitely send the most powerful assassins to assassinate Hong Xuan, and the Queen also said that Miss Wan'er will do the assassination herself this time."

Prince Hongxuan was stunned:

"Wan'er will personally take action? Great! Very good! If Wan'er personally takes action to assassinate Hongxuan, then he will definitely die."

"This prince can rest easy now."

The Second Prince's Mansion.

Opposite the Second Prince Hongxiong sat a middle-aged man wearing a silver mask:

"Haha! Deacon Zhang, I didn't expect that you are completely different from your image in the court!"

The middle-aged man wearing a silver mask said:

"Second Prince! When we meet, Your Highness cannot announce my name. This is the rule. If I want to see you in person, I naturally don't need to dress like this."

The second prince raised his eyebrows and said, "Tell me about your plan! Since you are alert, we should not be in contact for too long."

"My plan is to send out bandits to attack Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan!"

"But the bandits are not strong enough! How can they compare with the regular guards?"

Hongxiong asked curiously.

"Second Prince, you don't know that there is a place called Longlingping in the northern border. I have trained many death warriors. They usually dress up as bandits and become death warriors in war. They are organized into a gang called the Hungry Wolf Gang. Now there are 10,000 bandits in this Evil Wolf Gang."

"what!"

Hongxiong was shocked.

"There are 10,000 bandits! That's a lot."

The middle-aged man wearing a silver mask said, "That's right! There are 10,000 bandits. When the time comes, if the King of Zhenbei passes by here, I will make sure that his entire army will be wiped out here."

"Hahaha! Good! Good! Very good! Prime Minister Zhang, oh no! You should call him Protector Zhang. With this great move, your Highness can rest assured."

Ten thousand bandits fighting against only one thousand seven hundred soldiers would definitely be a crushing defeat.

"Second Prince, I came to see you not just for the matter of King Zhenbei."

"It's not just about the King of Zhenbei. What else do you want to ask me?" Hong Xiong asked curiously.

"This guardian wants to know whether the Second Prince has the ambition to become the emperor of the Great Feng Kingdom."

When Hongxiong heard what Protector Zhang said, he was stunned.

"Of course I want to! But now the crown prince of Dafeng Kingdom is not me, so I don't even have the qualifications." Hongxiong responded.

"Wait for the right time, then the throne will naturally be yours, Second Prince. This guardian can guarantee you that."

"Zhang Hufa, how can you promise me? I don't believe it."

Becoming an emperor has been Hongxiong's lifelong obsession, but his current situation makes him no longer see any hope of becoming an emperor.

Steward Zhang smiled and said, "Second Prince, have you forgotten how the Sixth Prince of Beishang, the new emperor, became the emperor? Where there is a will, there is a way. As long as the Second Prince wants to be the emperor, then you will be the emperor in the future!"

Hongxiong was excited when he heard this.

"Of course I want to be the emperor. I dream of it! If I can sit on the throne, then Chief Zhang, oh no! Zhang Hufa, you will be the most powerful person in Dafeng State, and we will share the glory and wealth."

"Haha! Good! As long as the Second Prince has such a character, I am willing to lend you a helping hand. Of course! Before that we must eliminate and kill Hongxuan! Because Hongxuan is the biggest variable among all the princes."

Hong Xiong nodded: "Yes, this guy is so cunning, and he is also so strong in fighting. He knocked me out with one punch! I haven't had time to avenge this yet."

"If Hongxuan doesn't die, our plan will be difficult to achieve! So Hongxuan must die." Protector Zhang said dimly.
