The dead end outside the episode (3)

"Eunuch Shao" missed the target, his expression remained unchanged, and he was about to swing his right hand sideways. However, a strong hand grabbed his wrist tightly.

The person who took action was none other than Emperor Qing'an.

Emperor Qing'an was known for his bravery and first-class skills when he was young. Over the years, he was pampered and busy with government affairs, and he did not abandon his martial arts. He would spend half an hour every day practicing boxing. At this time, in anger, he attacked with all his strength and almost crushed "Eunuch Shao"

"Wrist.

"Eunuch Shao" screamed miserably, and the dagger in his right hand fell to the ground. As soon as he said it, the sharp long knife in Commander Dong's hand passed through his back and chest.

A burst of blood burst out from "Eunuch Shao's" chest. More than a dozen of the emperor's personal guards rushed over, slashing "Eunuch Shao" with one blow at a time, hacking "Eunuch Shao" to death.

This assassination was short-lived, only a few breaths in total. But it was thrilling and disturbing.

Grandson Zhu Dong, who had never experienced such a battle, turned pale and wanted to get up, but his hands and feet were weak.

Zhu Yun's expression didn't look much better, and he quickly rushed to Emperor Qing'an's side: "Father, are you okay?"

His eyes quickly fell on Emperor Qing'an's pierced skirt.

The assassin had a highly poisonous dagger in his hand. Even if he cut his skin, his life would be in danger.

Emperor Qing'an seemed to be calm and composed, but in fact he was furious in his heart, with anger flashing in his eyes: "I'm fine. After passing my instructions, I immediately sealed the imperial mausoleum and found out the identity of the assassin. I want to see who is so bold.

How dare you send assassins to kill me."

Commander Dong hurriedly ordered to retreat.

The prince outside the door only then knew what was going on inside. He rushed in with a pale face, suddenly knelt down and kowtowed to apologize: "It was my servant who failed to do his job and let the assassin sneak past and get close to the emperor. I am punished by death!"

Yes, if Eunuch Yang was still here, how could he have made such a fatal mistake!

The prince took over the secret guards inside and outside the palace. The emperor's personal guards were in the light, and the secret guards were in the dark, guarding the emperor's safety together. Today, the assassin dressed as "Eunuch Shao" and entered the palace openly.

This is a complete dereliction of duty by the prince.

Emperor Qing'an had a sullen face and glanced at the prince coldly: "First, go and investigate the origin of the assassin, find out the mastermind behind the scenes, and get rid of the crime. When this matter is settled, I will settle the general account with you."

Cold sweat dripped from the prince's forehead, and he kowtowed three times. After getting up, he rushed to the body of "Eunuch Shao".

This "Eunuch Shao" was naturally fake. He had lowered his head before and passed by, but Eunuch Wang was negligent and did not notice that something was wrong. At this time, "Eunuch Shao" could not die any more, lying on his back on the ground with blood flowing across the face.

You can see subtle differences in his face.

The prince was filled with hatred and rage, wishing he could revive the assassin in front of him and cut him into pieces with a thousand knives. He wholeheartedly followed Eunuch Yang as an example and determined to become the emperor's trusted confidant. It was good now that he had already made such a big impact in just half a year after taking office.

The mistake came, and I felt so much regret and regret.

"Carry the body down," Emperor Qing'an said solemnly, "find a man to inspect it carefully."

The prince responded in a low voice and called a few servants to carry the body out. He also brought a few buckets of cold water to wash away the blood on the ground.

Except for the bloody smell remaining in the air, it seemed as if nothing had happened.

Zhu Yun frowned and said in a deep voice: "Father, who sent this assassin?"

Emperor Qing'an snorted coldly: "There is no one else but your smart-aleck cousin."

King Zhao is not that stupid. Come to think of it, only the crown prince of Zhao is the one.

Zhu Dong was still in shock at this time, and his voice was still trembling: "Grandpa Huang, that assassin dressed up as Eunuch Shao, so lifelike that my grandson couldn't tell anything was wrong. How did Grandpa Huang recognize it?"

Zhu Yun also raised his eyes and looked at Emperor Qing'an.

Complex emotions flashed through Emperor Qing'an's eyes, and he said calmly: "When Yang Jinghe was alive, he collected a group of masters from the martial arts world. Among them were people who were good at disguise. A true master of disguise would pretend to be someone you are familiar with.

Yan Yixiao walks, sits and lies, and you don't even notice that there is a different person in front of you."

Zhu Dong took a breath and blurted out: "This is too awesome!"

Zhu Yun didn't know what he thought of, but something strange flashed in his eyes: "This assassin dressed as 'Eunuch Shao' is also a master of disguise. My son and I didn't notice anything was wrong. My father recognized him as soon as he saw him.

When you come out, you can see that my father’s eyes are as bright as a torch.”

Because he has seen a truly unparalleled disguise technique.

Compared with today's "Eunuch Shao", he was far behind. The faces were indeed similar, but the walking posture was different, and the voice was even different. As soon as he opened his mouth, he knew something was wrong.

Emperor Qing'an thought of Feng Shaojun and couldn't help but sigh secretly and said casually: "If you have seen a real master, you will naturally know the difference."

"You should also be more careful in the future."



News that an assassin was assassinating the Emperor spread quickly. The imperial mausoleum was sealed, and the Emperor's personal guards under the leadership of Commander Dong conducted a rigorous investigation. The prince and his father-in-law also led a group of internal servants to investigate everywhere.

This kind of movement alerted King Zhao almost immediately.

A bad premonition suddenly surged in King Zhao's heart. He stood up suddenly, shaking all the fat on his body: "Call the prince over."

The waiter beside him hurriedly stepped back.

After a while, Prince Zhao arrived.

The prince of Zhao had a strange look on his face, he was out of his mind, and he walked lightly.

King Zhao did not beat around the bush at all and asked directly: "Did you send an assassin to kill the emperor?"

Prince Zhao moved his lips and wanted to speak, but could not utter a single word.

Zhizi Mo Ruofu. King Zhao knew what was going on as soon as he saw it. He gritted his teeth and his eyes were red with hatred. He raised his hand and slapped his son hard, then kicked him violently.

Prince Zhao screamed miserably and was kicked to the ground. He covered his face with his left hand, tears and snot flowing down his nose: "Father, please help me! The emperor has ordered people to seal the imperial mausoleum and search everywhere. I'm afraid it will be here soon."

It’s on me. My father must save me!”

King Zhao was about to cry but had no tears, so he stepped forward and kicked him a few more times.

Prince Zhao curled up in pain, screamed miserably, and begged: "Father, my son knows he was wrong. Please save me, father!"

"Assassinating the emperor is a heinous capital crime!" King Zhao gritted his teeth and cursed angrily: "How did King Qin and King Han die back then? They were still brothers to the emperor, and the emperor did not spare them. Why do you think the emperor will spare your nephew?

Son!"

"You impulsive and brainless idiot! I have already asked the emperor to nod, and I will soon leave the capital and become a vassal. You chose this moment to send someone to assassinate the emperor. Are you impatient?"

"You are seeking death, and no one can save you! Everyone in Prince Zhao's house will be implicated by you!"
