The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince

The bullet pierced the back of his head and exited from between his eyebrows. Dong'e's face was full of unwillingness, his eyes were void, and his body fell straight down.

The two evil spirits of the generation of Jianghu were defeated by the Qin Palace. He must have regretted taking this business until his death. The assassination failed, but he lost his life.

Even if the other party offers a lot of money, what's the point if you don't have the life to spend it? !

After seeing the two evil spirits being killed, the remaining people no longer had the courage to fight. The men in black, who numbered less than a hundred, turned around and fled.

The reason they persisted until now was that they believed that the Twin Demons could succeed, but they never expected that they would lose their lives in the end.

On the White Robe Army side, nearly thirty people were killed, and the rest were injured to varying degrees.

However, with only 200 soldiers fighting against 400 soldiers of higher rank, it was enough to be proud of such casualties and achievements! The battle ended here, and the people on the carriage were not harmed.

They had no way to get close to the carriage. Even if they did, they would be killed by the white-robed soldiers guarding it. Therefore, the people on the carriage were unharmed.

On the way back to the city, Chu Yan'er looked very ugly. Now that these people had attacked her, they might also attack Emperor Yan.

The situation in the capital is likely to become more and more chaotic. Now that Jiang Fan is not in the capital, everything depends on her.

It seems that I have to find an opportunity to inform Emperor Yan. I am afraid that Emperor Yan may not realize the seriousness of the situation yet.

When everyone returned to the Prince of Qin's Mansion, in the imperial study of the palace, Emperor Yan also received the news that everyone in the Prince of Qin's Mansion had been attacked.

His face looked extremely ugly, and murderous intent was surging in his eyes.

"You aristocratic family, I haven't taken any action against you yet, but you dare to bully me! Go and get to the bottom of this matter for me! It's time to use some lives to make them behave themselves!"

Emperor Yan spoke coldly. At this point, he looked at Shadow and said, "Shadow, go ahead and do it. Don't worry. Also, let Fang Tatian assist you! Also, let Chu Xinghe and Ning Zhen send people to assist you!"

Shadow heard this and nodded.

Although the current commander of the Imperial Guards, Fang Tatian, is already loyal to Emperor Yan, Emperor Yan is obviously still afraid that Fang Tatian will collude with Jiang Zheng and others again.

With the help of Chu Xinghe and Ning Zhen, things became relatively simpler.

Those people's attack on the Prince of Qin's Palace touched the Yan Emperor's reverse scale. The Yan Emperor was preparing to make an example of him by killing a chicken to scare the monkey.

I'm afraid many people will die again this time.

The shadow bowed to the Emperor of Yan and turned to leave. Liu Fu was waiting on the side.

On the other side, in a secret room in Cui Mansion in the capital, Cui Jing was sitting there with six people, and their faces looked extremely ugly.

Cui Jing is the head of the Cui family among the five surnames and seven families. He is currently the Minister of Rites and is considered the most powerful one among the five surnames.

Because the Cui family had more members serving in the court than the other four surnames, and Cui Jing was a first-rank official, although he was not appointed as prime minister, he was still in a high position.

As for the other four surnames and seven families, many of them served in the court. However, only the four surnames had many officials in the court. The seven families were mostly local officials.

To be honest, the five surnames and seven families were actually pretty much the same in strength. However, there was still a big gap between the strongest and the weakest.

"The assassination failed, and the two evil spirits are dead. What should we do next? I'm afraid His Majesty will make a drastic move!" Cui Jing looked at the others with an unpleasant expression.

"Or... let's stop. This is really too risky. If something goes wrong, we will be doomed!" At this time, Li Changgong, the head of the Li family, said with some worry.

The Li family ranks last among the five surnames and seven families, but is slightly higher than the seven families. Li Changgong is currently the Minister of Personnel. He actually supports Jiang Fan.

Even his legitimate son Li Xiaozhi wanted to marry the ninth princess Jiang Xing. The Emperor of Yan did not agree to this, but he did not refuse it either. He even let Jiang Xing contact Li Xiaozhi several times.

The Emperor Yan's meaning was very simple. Jiang Xing had reached the age of marriage, but she was like a blank sheet of paper. The Emperor Yan was afraid that his daughter would suffer. He was very cautious in choosing a husband.

However, Li Xiaozhi was a gentle and kind person, and he also had some talent. He was indeed a good candidate for a husband.

Therefore, he wanted to let his daughter get in touch with the other party. If Jiang Xing liked him, he would agree to the marriage.

But the Emperor of Yan actually still wanted Jiang Fan to make an assessment. If Jiang Fan liked Li Xiaozhi, then the marriage would be possible.

"Master Li, are you still hoping that His Majesty will marry Princess Shengping to your son? You have asked His Majesty for the marriage many times, but has His Majesty ever agreed?"

"Although His Majesty did not refuse, he obviously wanted the King of Qin to make the decision. Now the King of Qin is suppressing the aristocratic families in Daxi and even slaughtering most of them. Do you think that after he stabilizes the situation in Daxi and returns to Dayan, he will not take action against the aristocratic families?"

"Since ancient times, which emperor has not feared the power of our family? He needs our family to rule the world for him, but he is also afraid that our family will compete with him for the world."

"It would be fine if His Majesty and we could form a tacit understanding and live in peace, but His Majesty clearly intends to suppress the noble families. Coupled with what the King of Qin did in Daxi, our noble family will have no way to survive in the future. We might as well rebel!"

Cui Jing looked at Li Changgong coldly.

Following his voice, several others quickly spoke up: "Yes, Patriarch Li, don't hold on to your illusions. The King of Qin wants to take action against our family, and he won't let his sister marry your son. Even if she marries your son, I'm afraid he will still have to take action against you."

"Your son wouldn't turn against us just for a woman, would he? Don't forget that we are a group of people with vested interests. If you dare to betray us, don't blame us for being ruthless!"

"Master Li, one thought can lead to life or death! You must think carefully before making a decision!"

Facing the threats from several people, the anger in Li Changgong's eyes soon disappeared. He looked at them and smiled, "You guys are joking. Of course, I am on the same page with you. However, now that our assassination has failed, it is probably impossible to deal with the Qin Palace! What should we do next!"

As soon as he said this, Cui Jing and the others looked at each other, with a look of annoyance in their eyes.

They thought that by hiring a killer with a large sum of money, they could take advantage of the opportunity when everyone in the Qin Palace was out and wipe out everyone in it.

As long as something happened in the Qin Palace, they would be able to seek opportunities in this chaotic situation, especially after losing the two extraordinary women, Chu Yan'er and Su Yuqing.

I'm afraid that Emperor Yan has no way to compete with them, but now, not only did they fail to assassinate him, they also alerted the enemy.

Moreover, with Chu Yan'er and Su Yuqing becoming masters, assassination is now impossible. Sending people to assassinate masters is like sending food to the emperor!

When the assassination began, the five surnames and seven families were destined to fight to the death with Jiang Fan!

"In that case, let's go all out and have the people in the palace do it. As long as that person dies, we will have a 70% chance of winning."

Cui Jing said with a fierce look in his eyes.
