Inside the palace.

His Majesty and the Queen could no longer hold on until the third watch. Everything was ready. Over the years, every event planned by the two of them was safe and sound.

From the moment Magistrate Liu left the banquet, the two of them had determined that Magistrate Liu was on the side of King Jin. In this case, they had no choice but to abandon King Jin.

The two agreed that as long as the King of Jin was killed and Magistrate Liu had no one to rely on, Magistrate Liu would naturally surrender to one of their three princes. As long as he surrendered to any one of them, Xiaocheng would be the richest in the world in the future. The wealth belongs to both of them.

Therefore, as soon as Magistrate Liu stepped out of the banquet hall, the two launched an attack on Concubine Tao.

Concubine Tao's bedroom was in the most remote palace in the palace, and Ye Shang fought for more than an hour to secure it.

The assassins sent by His Majesty and the Queen were also killed by Ye Shang, and there was not even one person to report the news.

Naturally, His Majesty and the Queen did not know about this. They went to sleep contentedly as soon as it was three o'clock. The assassins sent to Concubine Tao were naturally wiped out. The assassins sent to Prince Jin's Mansion were even more powerful than Concubine Tao. There are hundreds of times more assassins in the palace.

The couple are equally cruel, and they treat everyone except the three legitimate sons like animals.

The two of them didn't get up until three o'clock in the morning, because the three princes noticed something was wrong.

After King Pingzhang and the fifth prince were beaten by Xu Yihuan in prison last night, they first ran away in despair, and then called Commander Liu over and cursed them for three hours. After the scolding, the imperial doctor rushed to treat their injuries.

After a good nap, the two of them also slept until about three o'clock in the morning before getting up.

In the entire palace, the most sober one was the sixth prince. The sixth prince did not participate in the bullying of the maid by his two brothers, nor the assassination of his two parents. Therefore, after a night's rest, although he got up late, he found that the entire palace was quiet.

There were sporadic people in black wandering around Deqing Hall, and Commander Liu went back and forth four or five times around Deqing Hall.

Only then did the Sixth Prince realize that something was wrong, and stepped forward and asked, "Is there something wrong, Commander Liu?"

As soon as Commander Liu saw the sixth prince taking the initiative to inquire, he caught him as if he had met a savior and began to complain: "The secret guards came to report that King Jin's dead soldiers had been killing outside all night and were still resisting. The general will send people to investigate." , King Jin disappeared without a trace."

The Sixth Prince was confused for a moment. What does the killing of King Jin's dead soldiers all night have to do with him, his father, the emperor and his mother?

King Jin is missing? Wouldn't it be better if he died, just as his father, emperor and mother wanted.

Seeing that the Sixth Prince still didn't understand what he meant, Commander Liu continued: "Your Majesty and the Queen sent secret guards to assassinate King Jin yesterday."

The sixth prince's eyes lit up and his body stiffened. His body's instinctive memory brought him back to the time when he was almost crippled by Xu Chuan's beating in the camp. He touched his chest and felt a little raw at the moment.

"Assassination of Prince Jin, are you saying that the assassination has not been successful yet?" The sixth prince's mind suddenly buzzed, and his rationality returned.

When Commander Liu saw that the Sixth Prince understood what he meant, his face turned gloomy, and he said happily: "Yes, that's what he meant."

The sixth prince instinctively felt a chill, and the cold air went directly from the soles of his feet to his forehead, and he shivered twice.

If King Jin is not killed, then King Jin is not dead. If King Jin is not dead, then Xu Chuan will not let them go. And since he is the son of his father and his mother, he naturally cannot escape.

The more the Sixth Prince thought about it, the more terrifying he felt, and his rosy complexion instantly turned pale.

Commander Liu stood aside and said silently in his heart: Sixth Prince, don't go crazy. You were fine yesterday. If you go crazy today, you won't be able to save yourself. You won't be able to save me either.

But the Sixth Prince seemed not to have heard anything. He stared blankly at the location and murmured to himself: "Prince Jin is not dead, Xu Chuan is not dead, Prince Jin is not dead, Xu Chuan is not dead."

When Commander Liu saw this, he felt as if his mind had been struck by lightning. He couldn't really be crazy. He stepped forward, raised his hand and waved it in front of the Sixth Prince's eyes, but there was no response.

My heart felt cold, but I still refused to give in. I shook it again, but there was still no response. There was fear in my eyes, and I couldn't laugh or cry.

He shouted with a mournful face: "Sixth Prince, Sixth Prince" The Sixth Prince still didn't respond.

The chamberlain was originally standing five or six steps away from the sixth prince. When he heard Commander Liu calling the sixth prince several times in succession, the sixth prince did not respond. He was so frightened that he hurriedly stepped forward and shouted: "Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness."

After a long while, the sixth prince was able to withdraw from his dazed thoughts, and his dull eyes regained some clarity.

"What's wrong?" The Sixth Prince asked Commander Liu who was standing in front of him blankly.

Commander Liu was frightened just now. When he saw that the Sixth Prince had returned to some normal state, he breathed a sigh of relief and unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth and said: "It's okay, it's okay. I hope His Highness is fine. That's fine."

The sixth prince's mind went blank for a moment, and he was taken back to his room by the chamberlain.

Commander Liu looked at his figure, took a deep breath, and shouted in his heart: Fortunately, everything is fine! Fortunately it's okay!

The men in black were standing far away, and Commander Liu was standing in the center of the Deqing Hall. They all came to find the Queen and His Majesty to make decisions, but they did not dare to disturb their rest.

Today is a holiday and there is no need to go to court. According to past habits, His Majesty and the Queen will sleep until three o'clock in the morning and then arrange entertainment such as singing and dancing, banquet instrumental music, or going out to the palace to watch a play and other entertainment.

Anyone who dares to disturb their enjoyment will inevitably be beheaded.

Commander Liu was well versed in this art and had good martial arts skills, so he was highly regarded by Your Majesty and the Queen as the commander of the Imperial Guards.

But the matter was urgent at the moment, and they did not dare to disturb them. Commander Liu and several leaders at the moment waited outside the palace until three o'clock in the morning before they saw the door of Deqing Palace open.

Commander Liu stepped forward quickly and asked: "Is the Queen awake? I will have something important to see you at the end."

The chamberlain just opened the door. When he saw Commander Liu, his face could not help but darken and he said, "Since when did Commander Liu become so ignorant?" Everyone knows that Her Majesty the Queen cannot be disturbed during holidays.

When Commander Liu heard this, his face darkened and he said: "The matter is urgent, please give me a briefing."

When the chamberlain heard this, his expressions could not help but darken. These chamberlains know the tempers of His Majesty and the Queen best. The Queen and His Majesty woke up in a good mood today. If they let the short-sighted people spare their interest, I am afraid that the entire Deqing would suffer. Everyone in the palace will suffer.

Commander Liu seemed to have noticed the worries of the chamberlain. He said: "If you don't report it earlier, you and I will suffer. Please be lenient, father-in-law."

When the chamberlain heard this, his face changed slightly, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Okay, wait."

But he cursed in his heart: He must find an opportunity to tell Commander Liu a few words in front of the Queen. If he does this a few times, he will be killed by Your Majesty and the Queen.

Commander Liu looked at the back of the chamberlain entering the palace and breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, the man in black saw that Commander Liu had finished communicating with the chamberlain, and hurriedly stepped forward to squeeze in beside Commander Liu. Just waiting for the chamberlain's order, they pretended to be Commander Liu's people and went into the chamber to report together.

They are not people who live in the sun. Their status is not even that of Commander Liu. They just hope that there will be someone in front of them to block them.
