The moment Shen Xiangning dropped the empty pistol and took out the dagger, he was captured by two eunuchs.

Shen Xiangning struggled desperately, but how could she be a match for these eunuchs when she was already injured?

Emperor Wu also took a few steps back, staring at Shen Xiangning with lingering fear.

When Shen Xiangning pointed that weapon at him just now, Emperor Wu really thought he was going to die.

He never thought that someone would come to assassinate him at this time.

If it hadn't been for the critical moment, something went wrong with the weapon and it malfunctioned, and I'm afraid he would have been dead by now.

Thinking of this, Emperor Wu's face turned completely gloomy.

At the same time, Emperor Wu had also recognized Shen Xiangning as the person next to Wu Yuan.

Emperor Wu was so angry that he laughed back, "Okay, that's great. Let these ministers come here to test me. So it turns out they are just to paralyze me?"

Prime Minister Wen's heart skipped a beat. Of course he could see that Shen Xiangning was from Wu Yuan.

Naturally, he thought that this was someone sent by Wu Yuan to assassinate Emperor Wu. How could he be so confused? Prime Minister Wen wailed in his heart.

But he also hurriedly stepped forward to persuade, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding here. Your Majesty will definitely not do such a thing."

Emperor Wu glared at him instantly, "Then tell me, what's going on with this assassin?"

Prime Minister Wen also choked on his words and didn't know what to say for a moment.

But at this time Shen Xiangning shouted: "It has nothing to do with His Majesty Wu Yuan. I took it upon myself to assassinate you."

When they heard Shen Xiangning's shouting, not to mention Emperor Wu, even Prime Minister Wen didn't believe it.

At the moment, for Wu Yuan, retaining the throne and assassinating Emperor Wu is the best choice. There is no guarantee that Wu Yuan did not choose to take the risk.

The ministers were also dumbfounded at this moment. The happy atmosphere just now was gone in this moment.

After hearing the conversation between Emperor Wu and Prime Minister Wen, this was actually an assassin sent by Wu Yuan?

This is too confusing. Emperor Wu has no intention of fighting for the throne, but he still wants to do this. Isn't this pushing himself into a pit of fire?

Just when everyone was feeling extremely heavy, Emperor Wu suddenly issued an order, "The eldest prince Wu Yuan, in order to seize the throne, assassinated me, he should be questioned and executed. Do you have anything to say?"

At this moment, all the ministers were a little confused. Even if Wu Yuan was the emperor, he should not openly assassinate the Supreme Emperor.

Even if they wanted to speak for Wu Yuan, they couldn't find a reason.

Not to mention, now that Emperor Wu is angry, who dares to speak out?

Emperor Wu sneered, "I now declare that Wu Yuan will be deprived of his throne, and he will be arrested and imprisoned in a prison. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy."

The situation took a turn for the worse, and there was a polar reversal.

Prime Minister Wen opened his mouth, and finally sighed helplessly.

Now there are only two outcomes, either Wu Yuan and Emperor Wu will continue to fight to the end and fight for a winner, or Wu Yuan will be imprisoned in a sky prison and will never be able to turn over.

Shen Xiangning was still there and kept shouting, "I made my own decision. It is none of His Majesty Wu Yuan's business. This matter has nothing to do with him."

However, according to Shen Xiangning, there is no doubt that there is no three hundred taels of silver here.

No one was listening to Shen Xiangning's excuse at the moment. Emperor Wu waved his hand with a gloomy look on his face, "Take her to me."

Shen Xiangning was so anxious at the moment that she was not afraid even if she was told to die, but she didn't want to implicate Wu Yuan.

I thought that with Wu Yuan's powerful weapon in hand and his ability to approach Emperor Wu so smoothly, he could successfully assassinate him. Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, the weapon actually malfunctioned.

Shen Xiangning regretted that if he had known this, it might have been possible to use a dagger at the beginning.

But now she has no chance to regret continuously.

East Palace!

Wu Yuan and Xile lay together covered in sweat, and the ground was a mess.

The quilt also felt like it had been soaked in water, soaked into pieces.

Xile said with some unfinished thoughts: "I didn't bring anything with me today. Let's make up for it next time."

Wu Yuan was speechless, but he was used to Xile's style.

"You should have a good rest here. I guess there will be news coming back from the Peacock Palace soon. Let's go out and have a look."

Xile also stood up when he saw this, "I'll go out with you too."

Wu Yuan did not refuse, but when he got dressed, Wu Yuan couldn't help but let out a sigh.

Xile saw this and asked curiously: "What's wrong?"

Wu Yuan did not answer, but turned to look at the cutie beside him, "Where is my pistol?"

After hearing this, the little cutie replied truthfully: "Miss Huo'er took it away."

Wu Yuan was stunned when he heard it, "What did she do with this thing? When else did she get it? Why didn't I know?"

The little cutie immediately replied: "After Miss Huo'er went out earlier, she came back and then took away the things. Before I could ask more questions, Miss Huo'er had already run away."

Hearing this, Wu Yuan's eyelids twitched, and he had a vague premonition.

"Where are the people from Huo'er?" Wu Yuan asked.

"Miss Huo'er said that if His Majesty comes to find her, just tell her that she is not here." The little cutie said it directly without loyalty.

Now, Wu Yuan felt even more uneasy.

I once again recalled Huo'er's sudden visit, but only said some good news, which didn't seem to be in line with Huo'er's style.

Huo'er would only take the initiative to come to him when something bad happened.

Suddenly, Wu Yuan suddenly remembered that Huo'er brought Shen Xiangning with him when he came in.

Wu Yuan quickly asked: "Where is Shen Xiangning?"

The little cutie was startled, and then said: "It seems that after talking to Miss Huo'er, she disappeared."

"It's broken!" Wu Yuan's heart suddenly thumped.

Xile felt that Wu Yuan was making a fuss, "What's wrong? Shen Xiangning is injured, maybe he went back to rest?"

Wu Yuan shook his head and said solemnly: "Shen Xiangning has a very paranoid personality. She refused to go even if I asked her to rest. How could she suddenly leave alone?"

Xile still felt that Wu Yuan was thinking too much, so he told the little cutie: "Go and look for it immediately. If you find it, let Shen Xiangning come see you."

Wu Yuan also added: "And Huo'er, find her for me. If she doesn't come, tie her up for me."

Seeing that Wu Yuan seemed a little angry, the little cutie didn't dare to delay and immediately ordered the people in the East Palace to take action.

Soon, Huo'er was tied up in front of Wu Yuan.

"Your Majesty, I have searched all over the East Palace and have not found Shen Xiangning." The little cutie replied.

After hearing this, even Xile was no longer as relaxed as before.

Wu Yuan seemed to have expected it, looking straight at Huo'er.

"Tell me, what did you ask Shen Xiangning to do?"
