Chapter 36 Assassination
Chen Wangchuan's pupils couldn't help but shrink: "You mean..."

"My subordinate carefully inspected the traces on the side of the Buddha statue. The traces are new and fresh scratches. I suspect that the sounds I heard before were not hallucinations, but that someone really was hiding there. Also, I This half of the ear was found in the ground."

"The one hiding is a girl!" Chen Wangchuan whispered.

There is a faint fragrance of hair exuding from the tassels. This fragrance is light and refreshing, very special, not like the shampoo used by the maids in the palace.

If she's not from the palace, she's a woman who came to attend the palace banquet.

Chen Wangchuan scanned the crowd: "Those noble women are wearing gold hairpins and jade hairpins. This small spike should be used by the maids. Go check it out and don't alarm anyone."

"Yes! Then," Zhou Chang hesitated: "If it is found, my subordinates will..."

"killed!"

The conversation between him and Ling Xinyao must not be heard by outsiders.

No matter whose maid it is, she must die!
Zhou Chang responded and quietly left the banquet. After walking a few steps, he suddenly saw Ling Xinyao coming from the opposite side.

He stood calmly against the wall: "Second Miss."

Ling Xinyao walked past him without squinting: "That tassel belongs to Ling Xi!"

Zhou Chang was shocked.

But before he had time to ask anything, Ling Xinyao had already walked past him.

Both sides seemed like nothing happened.

Zhou Chang was confused and hurriedly turned back.

When Chen Wangchuan saw him, he realized that something had happened. He got up calmly and came to a secluded place.

"what happened?"

"My subordinate just met the second young lady on the road. She said that these ears belong to the eldest lady of the Ling family!"

"Ling Xi?"

"Yes!"

"..."

Chen Wangchuan didn't expect that things would turn out like this, and was stunned for a moment.

The hair spike turned out to be Ling Xi’s!
Then, the person hiding inside...is Ling Xi! ?
"Your Majesty, how about it?" Zhou Chang made a "kill" gesture.

Chen Wangchuan nodded silently: "If she hears it, she can't stay here. Be careful not to show off your flaws! Also, make a quick decision and don't let her ruin our affairs!"

"understand!"

Zhou Chang retreated quickly.

The prince has been planning this matter for a long time, and he must not ruin the overall situation just because of Ling Xi.

While he was leading people to inquire about Ling Xi's whereabouts, he personally ordered people and planned the route and equipment.

Soon, the person who inquired about the news came back.

"Ling Xi is ill again and is currently resting in Suiyang Palace, but His Majesty is also here."

"Your Majesty is here too?" Zhou Chang frowned slightly: "How is the defense?"

"Your Majesty's twelve secret guards are not here. I heard that Eunuch An transferred them to the altar to prepare for the next palace banquet."

"The Twelve Guards aren't here?" Zhou Chang's pupils shrank instantly: "This is a great opportunity... If we succeed, we can get rid of His Majesty as well!"

"But, didn't the prince say..."

"We all know what the prince means, kill early and kill later, isn't it all killing in the end?" Zhou Chang made a decision and waved his hand: "Listen to me, this mission is mainly aimed at Ling Xi , if possible, even His Majesty will solve it together and solve the prince’s major problem!”

He has followed the prince for many years and understands his thoughts best.

Everything the prince planned today was just for the ninth-five position that should belong to him.

Now, the opportunity is at hand.

After killing the tyrant, the prince takes control of the situation, and everything is still under the prince's control.

As for the prince’s plan to use the mob to kill the tyrant...

unimportant! !

Anyway, the final result is the most important!

He gave an order, led his men to change into eunuch uniforms, hid their weapons, bowed their waists, and walked towards Suiyang Palace with small steps.

-

Silver needle pricks acupoints.The soreness hit instantly, bringing Ling Xi back to consciousness.

She sat up suddenly, and the frightened acupuncturist hurriedly knelt down: "Please be patient, young lady, your body has not fully recovered yet, so you can't do anything too drastic. It's better to rest."

"I?"

Ling Xi felt a little fragmented and confused.

She only remembered that she and the tyrant were crowded near the Buddha statue, and she felt very uncomfortable at the time, but it was not clear what happened afterward.

"What's wrong?" Chen Qianzhe came over.

"Your Majesty, the eldest lady is fine. She just needs to rest."

"It's best to be okay, otherwise, your whole family will be buried with you! Get out!"

The imperial doctor quickly kowtowed and retreated in fear.

Ling Xi rubbed her eyebrows and recalled what happened before: "How long have I been unconscious? What happened..."

She suddenly raised her eyes and asked expectantly: "But is it over?"

Chen Qianzhe shook his head.

Ling Xi immediately covered her heart: "It's not over yet? Oh, my heart... If it doesn't end, I will be frightened to death even if my head is not chopped off!"

"Shh!"

Chen Qianzhe pressed her lips with his fingers and gestured towards the outside of the hall with his eyes.

"Be quiet!"

Ling Xi immediately shut up and nodded knowingly.

At this moment, soft footsteps came from outside.

The footsteps hit the ground powerfully and quickly.

"These are not the footsteps of a eunuch." Chen Qianzhe whispered.

No eunuch in the palace dared to walk like this.

The two of them looked at each other and suddenly heard a scolding: "Which palace are you from? You are so brave. His Majesty is resting inside, how can you not allow you to break into the palace and act arrogantly!"

"Pfft!"

"what!"

There were a few brief and rapid screams, and someone fell to the ground.

"prick……"

Before a eunuch could even shout, he was choked back into his stomach by the tip of the knife.

Immediately afterwards, a group of eunuchs rushed into the dormitory.

Chen Qianzhe immediately protected Ling Xi behind him: "How dare you! How can I allow you to break into my dormitory! Get out of here!"

The eunuchs all had their faces covered, but they were tall and had murderous intent in their eyes. At first glance, they looked like assassins, not eunuchs.

The leader waved his sword and signaled: "Quick fight! Kill!"

The others were ordered to jump up and kill with their swords.

Ling Xi screamed in fright and instinctively held her head to avoid, but as soon as she squatted down, Chen Qianzhe picked up the collar and threw her out with skillful force.

She fell onto the screen in embarrassment, and before she could stand up in a hurry, Chen Qianzhe was forced back in front of her by several knives.

She didn't care anymore, grabbed her clothes and stuff and threw them at the assassins.

Although the clothes were not lethal, Chen Qianzhe, who was still at a disadvantage just now because of the obstruction of his vision, immediately turned his sword and stabbed several people.

"By entering the palace to assassinate you, you are committing the crime of confiscating your family and exterminating your clan!"

"Stop talking nonsense, tyrant, today is your day of death. No matter how much you talk, you will die!" Zhou Chang did not give Chen Qianzhe a chance to breathe, and ordered: "The Twelve Guards are here to get half a cup of tea, we have to wait for half a cup of tea." Get the tyrant's dog's head in a cup of tea, and then evacuate safely!"

With an order, the murderous intention became more serious.

Chen Qianzhe protected the two of them by himself, but soon fell into a disadvantage.

Ling Xi was forced to retreat to the corner.

Seeing the other party crowding in, he covered his eyes in panic and shouted: "Hidden loyalty!!"
