Qian Yijian would not let him do as he wished, he immediately raised the sword in his hand to block the man in black's path.

With another turn of his body, he began to fight with the black clothed man.

Clang

Tonight was New Year's Eve, and it was destined that no one could live in peace …!

The man got down on one knee. His voice sounded a bit panicked, but he spoke very clearly:

"The Emperor, the Crown Prince, is in trouble!"

Hearing that, the rose cake that Princess Xiwei was holding in his hand … With a bang, it returned to its original position.

She stood up and asked in surprise:

"What did you say?!"

Old Emperor's expression instantly turned dark and cold.

He looked at the guard kneeling on the ground with a gloomy gaze. "What happened to the crown prince?"

That person's voice was somewhat shaky, but he was trying his best to remain calm.

"Reporting to Emperor, Your Highness the Crown Prince … The crown prince was ambushed and the assassins were arrested on the spot, but... "However, the cause of the assassination is still unknown. Right now, the imperial physician is in the crown prince's residence to save the crown prince. The situation doesn't look good …"

"What's going on?!"

The Queen turned pale with fright. She looked at Old Emperor and said:

"Today's princes said that he is unwell and may come late to the palace to spend New Year's Eve with the Emperor. But, how could he, how could he be harmed by others? Could it be that the guards in the crown prince's residence all died?!"

Ninth Prince Shen Fan's expression was calm, but he narrowed his eyes slightly, and with a few words, he stabbed right into the vital point.

"The dignified crown prince of the Eastern Palace, the future king of Ranqi, was actually assassinated at the feet of the Emperor. If this news were to spread out, who knows how many people would laugh at us, our Ranqi, no one will protect our nation!"

The Old Emperor angrily slapped the dragon throne, "Immediately order the justice officials to examine this case overnight. Within three days, we want a satisfactory result."

Eunuch Fu immediately bowed and said to the Old Emperor:

"Yes, this servant will announce it now …" Emperor's will. "

Princess Xiwei's beautiful eyes... It was completely red, and the sound of choking could be heard from the exit.

"Royal Father, your son is about to leave the palace to visit the crown prince … What had happened? You will accompany me as well... 'Can you do it, big brother Crown Prince needs it the most right now … ' Royal Father, you have comforted me! Your son pleads with Royal Father to meet Crown Prince Big Brother together, okay? "

Shen Hancheng carefully caressed it... Lovesick on the wrist.

He glanced at Shen Fan, his expression unclear.

Seeming to have sensed something, Shen Fan slightly raised her gaze and looked towards Shen Hancheng's direction.

His lips curled up into a smile, giving Shen Hancheng a feeling that he was definitely going to win.

Shen Hancheng... Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows.

He shifted his gaze and looked at Old Emperor.

Old Emperor had already promised Princess Xiwei that he would drive out of the palace.

Walking out of the palace, Grand Commandant Lin walked over to Lin Lanqin and Lin Lan Xin's side.

Lin Lanqin smiled at him and nodded, "Father."

Grand Commandant Lin also laughed, "Your mother has not seen you for a long time, I really miss you. Later, you and your mother will share a carriage."

Lin Lanqin was a little hesitant … He glanced at Shen Fan.

Shen Fan said with a gentle smile:

"I have taken over you for too long. Since your father-in-law is here, I naturally do not dare to act rashly. Listen to your father-in-law, don't worry about it. "

Lin Lanqin said, "Chenqie thanks Your Highness."

Shen Fan thought of everything for her sake. Even if he couldn't, it would be hard.

Lin Lan Xin held her hand and pulled her away … She then pulled her to the side of the Grand Commandant Lin and started nagging at her.

Grand Commandant Lin walked beside Shen Fan.

After he said that, he kept his distance from Shen Fan, so that no one would be able to see him.

"The item is caught on the blanket within the carriage …"

When the Son of Heaven went out, it was a matter as big as the sky.

The princes, princes, princesses and ministers were also following behind the Son of Heaven.

The Forbidden Army was protected by layers upon layers of protection.

Even flies would find it hard to breathe, not to mention thorns.

In the courtyard … The battle raged like wildfire.

Two men in black were crouching on the roof. One of them waved his hand, and then … Walk lightly over the roof.

The other man in black followed closely behind.

When Lv Ruo and Qian Yijian were on the ground, they fought the black-clothed man to the point that they were unable to part with each other, as if they were drunk.

However, they did not give the black-clothed person in front of them any chance to approach the house.

The two men in black on the rooftop flew into the air and landed on the ground.

There were two wooden doors on both sides of the main house.

The two men in black looked at each other and nodded. Then, one of them kicked open the wooden door and the other walked in.

The room was abnormally quiet, not like someone was inside.

and...

Accompanied by a strong fragrance, it was so piercing … He was dizzy and dizzy.

A man in black panicked, "Not good, the fragrance is poisonous!"

The expression of the other man in black suddenly changed.

Undo... Before he could say anything, he blacked out and fell limply to the ground.

The man in black turned around and tried to retreat, but suddenly he felt dizzy and fell to the ground, unconscious.

Something seemed to be rolling down from his sleeve to the ground.

The black-robed men surrounding the estate … He faced off against the dark guards of the manor.

Don't know... Was the dark guard too powerful, or … The man in black was too weak?

It was actually the man in black … More people had died from their injuries than from the guards in the residence …

All of a sudden, he fell to the ground in a mess...

The leader of the men in black … Seeing that the situation was getting worse, the retreating fireworks did not catch fire.

That... He had failed!

He recalled the warning from his master that he had to get the person …

No matter how serious the injury or death is …

Most of the guards drew attention to themselves.

Available...

The people in front of him … He didn't know when or where … More guards.

All of them were skilled in martial arts and extraordinary in martial arts …

It was very obvious that they did not belong to any power within the Seventh Prince's Mansion.

Amidst the fighting, someone shouted:

"You and the other clowns, stay here tonight and obediently let us brothers know …" "I'll chop off your heads and go find the pavilion master for credit, hahahaha …"

A few of them had colors on their bodies, but they could still be considered to be … The black-clothed man firmly stood with his back facing forward.

The eyes of the man in black who gave the order were like torches.

He stared fixedly … The guard who had just spoken.

His gaze swept the area … Being very close to them, yet alone, the injured man in black shouted coldly:

"Withdraw."

The three men in black fled in panic as someone chased after them with a sword in hand.

But he was stopped.

The secret guard's eyes lit up, "The Pavilion Master had instructed not to let us leave the mansion. "Leave a few people behind and tie up the living for me. Watch carefully, pile up the dead to the side. The Pavilion Master will be back soon, and they can be of use."

"Yes, Jing Ming Shaosi."

"As for the remaining people, follow me to the backyard to reinforce the Sword Guards. We must catch all of them in one fell swoop and capture them alive."

"Yes, Jing Ming Shaosi."

Sitting in the carriage, Shen Fan half bent his body and took the keepsake from the pallet inside the carriage.

It was a letter. It looked rather thick.

Shen Fan opened the envelope and took out the document.

He just … He casually swept a glance over the letter. After clearly seeing the contents, he returned the document to the envelope.

In the sleeve.

After a moment, he lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked outside.

Noticing nothing out of the ordinary, he lowered the curtain again.

A gentle smile at the corner of his lips... His gaze was already locked onto a corner of the carriage, and the coldness in his eyes was terrifying.

This hour …

It was about time he did it …

Another carriage... He walked forward at a moderate pace.

Outside the carriage, Shen Hancheng suddenly asked:

"What time is it?"

Qian Yi answered, "Reporting to Master, it's already eight in the evening."

"Have you made preparations in the Crown Prince's Palace?"

"Reporting to my lord, everything in the crown prince's residence will be as you wish …" Master's plan.

"However, this subordinate is not too sure …"

Qian Yi thought for a while, then continued:

"Master, why …" "He wants to give all the documents related to the crown prince's crime of corruption to Zhao Jin?"

(Zhao Jing — Ranqi, the new top scorer of this year's Spring Examination. Because he is a local magistrate, he is popular among the people and has a good reputation.) Compared to Su Jinruo, I am also the one who was chosen by the empress to stay in the palace on New Year's Eve.

Shen Hancheng closed his eyes and meditated, his voice sounding extremely lazy and lazy.

"It's not like the Old Emperor can't find a candidate for the position of Prime Minister. This King... "Help him while you're at it."

Qian Yi was surprised.

However …

He was shocked not because of Shen Hancheng, but because he wanted to help the Old Emperor.

Shen Hancheng actually made his move, he was prepared to pull the crown prince down, and not only so, he even took the initiative to speak with the ministers of the imperial court.

Qian Yi said in a low voice: "Master, you are thinking of... Nurturing this top scholar? "

Shen Hancheng lifted his eyelids lazily but did not reply.

There was a moment of silence outside the carriage.

As Qian Yi held the carriage, he did not expect Shen Hancheng to answer his question.

He hesitated for a while before changing the topic.

"Mistress, your subordinate just … "In the palace, I saw Lady Yu and Lady Pure Robed Maid …"

Hearing that, Shen Hancheng gently closed his eyes and suddenly opened them.

Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace, assassinated on New Year's Eve, the current Son of Heaven, heard the news and left the palace.

This gift was none other than … The Shen Hancheng that the Old Emperor doted on the most, had also never happened before either.

The crown prince's chest was stabbed by someone. Due to...

The wound was on the left side, and it was deep. The crown prince was still unconscious.

The Crown Princess's face was full of tears. She stayed with the imperial physician in the tent. When she saw that the Prince had arrived, she quickly curtsied and painted.

Old Emperor glanced at the crown prince who was lying on the bed. His face was pale and his expression was somber.

Princess Xiwei was crying, but her eyes were filled with viciousness, and she said something on the spot:

"Quick, bring that assassin here. This princess will hack him into a thousand pieces, and cut his head and hands into pieces! Just put it in a pot and cook it until it's done... "Only by alleviating the pain in my heart will I be able to lessen the anger of this crown prince."

Shen Hancheng looked at Princess Xiwei, and Qian Yi shook his head.

As a Ranqi … The most noble princess.

The moment the words left his mouth, it felt so bloody …

What a sin …

Old Emperor's expression became even uglier.

"Mingyue, shut your mouth. A girl, look at yourself …" "What did he just say?!"

Princess Xiwei immediately cried even harder. "Mingyue is only avenging for Big Brother Crown Prince. Today is New Year's Eve!

This is the last day of the year, how can this assassin be so impudent? If he does not cut Mingyue into a thousand pieces, Mingyue truly cannot accept it! "
