The eighth day of the eighth month, at the Prince’s Palace in the Imperial Capital.

After Chu Tianxing received the news that Dong Bo's assassination attempt had failed, his face turned very ugly. He slammed the table hard and shouted angrily:

"What?! Dong Bo actually failed? This piece of rubbish!"

His eyes were filled with disappointment and anger, as if he wanted to tear everything in front of him to pieces.

He couldn't accept such an outcome. Something unexpected had happened to the originally planned thing, which made him feel extremely frustrated.

He secretly swore in his heart that he must find a way to solve the problem and not let this failure affect his grand plan.

He didn't have time to think about it and hurried into the palace to meet Concubine Qi.

"Be patient, your cousin hasn't taken any action yet." Concubine Qi comforted.

"Okay." Chu Tianxing gritted his teeth and said, "We must succeed this time. We must not fail again!"

Concubine Qi nodded slightly, with a stern look in her eyes:

"Don't worry, I have arranged everything. As long as your cousin acts according to the plan, he will definitely kill Chu Tiancheng."

Chu Tianxing took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

He knew that this operation had to succeed and not fail.

Otherwise, once the other party realizes their intentions, the consequences will be disastrous.

"When will my cousin take action?" Chu Tianxing asked.

"It will be at noon tomorrow." Concubine Qi replied, "When the time comes, just watch the show."

Chu Tianxing clenched his fists and prayed silently in his heart that the operation would be successful.

Chu Tianxing turned and left, his steps seemed a little heavy.

Back at the Prince's Mansion, he paced anxiously in the room, still worried about tomorrow's actions.

Time passed minute by minute, Chu Tianxing had no sleep at all, he stood nervously in front of the window, staring into the distance.

The next day, Kunyang City.

Chu Tiancheng's army has been preparing to return to the imperial capital these days.

Qin Rubing had nothing to do, so she took Zhuxiang and Yeyi to go shopping.

Qin Rubing, her master and her servant strolled around the market for a while and bought some small items.

Suddenly, a noise came from the front, attracting their attention.

They looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of people gathered together, not knowing what they were looking at.

"Miss, let's go and take a look." Zhuxiang said curiously.

Qin Rubing nodded, and they walked closer to the crowd and found a performance stall in the middle.

The stall owner was a young man who was performing juggling, drawing cheers from the audience.

Ye Yi looked at him for a while, then suddenly pulled Qin Rubing's sleeve and whispered, "Miss, that person looks familiar."

Ye Yi looked carefully again and was shocked. The man turned out to be Li Dong, the guard beside Chu Tianxing.

He quickly reported it to Qin Rubing.

"Why is he here?" Qin Rubing muttered to herself. She decided not to alert the enemy and quietly left the crowd.

"Miss, this person appears here. Could he be sent by Chu Tianxing?" Zhu Xiang guessed.

Qin Rubing nodded, "It's possible. It seems we have to be more careful."

After Qin Rubing hurried back to her residence, she immediately sent her confidant to report to Chu Tiancheng in detail what had happened today.

She knew very well that this matter might have a significant impact on the situation, so she had to let Chu Tiancheng know.

At the same time, after receiving the news, Chu Tiancheng immediately dispatched his capable men to sneak into the market quietly and closely monitor Li Dong's every move.

They carefully concealed their whereabouts so as not to be noticed by Li Dong.

However, apart from performing at the market, Li Dong did not seem to do anything special.

Chu Tiancheng's men also investigated Li Dong, who went home on time every day and led a peaceful and regular life.

This made Chu Tiancheng feel a little confused and puzzled.
