The daughter of the emperor is beautiful and holds the power over the world
Chapter 161 His Majesty is Critically Ill
Wei Shu swung his sword to block the flying dagger, and Ling Mohan and his brothers rushed forward.
Ling Mohan rushed straight towards the man in black who was holding Le Ning, stabbed his sword into his abdomen, and pulled Le Ning out.
Ling Mohan and his two brothers rescued Luoxue. However, they were a little slow and Luoxue's arm was chopped by a man in black, and blood immediately flowed out.
Luoxue was in so much pain that tears were streaming down her face, but she gritted her teeth and said nothing.
Ling Mohan handed Le Ning over to his two subordinates and was about to turn around to catch Wei Shu when Wei Shu threw a smoke bomb at his feet.
Amidst the white smoke, the killers retreated quickly, leaving only a dozen people behind.
The guards of Zuowei Mansion rushed forward and fought with the killers.
Ling Mohan was just wondering whether to give chase when he saw Si Yan had already climbed onto the roof.
Si Yan said to Ling Mohan, "Take your men to Prince Yong's Mansion, I'll be there soon."
Si Yan was originally going to Prince Yong's Mansion. When he passed by Zuowei Mansion and saw something happened inside, he asked someone to stop the carriage.
She happened to see Le Ning and Luo Xue being held hostage by men in black at the door, so she threw a dagger at them.
Si Yan had two daggers on her body. The one she just threw away was an ordinary dagger, and the other was a golden dagger given to her by the emperor.
Si Yan chased the man in black from the roof, and Boya and his men chased him in the alley outside. The two killed several killers on the way, crossed two blocks in succession, and finally caught up with the man in black who was dressed in black.
Seeing that he was cornered, the man in black stopped and stood in front of the two men without moving.
Si Yan looked at the look in the black-clad man's eyes and knew something was wrong.
"This is not Wei Shu."
Boya also noticed something was wrong. The man in black sneered, "Mr. Wei is a noble man. Why would he put himself in danger?"
Before Si Yan and Boya could take action, the man in black started bleeding from all seven orifices, his body twitched a few times, and he died on the spot.
With a loud bang, the body of the man in black rolled down from the roof.
"Let's go to Prince Yong's Mansion first."
Si Yan could conclude that the person before was indeed Wei Shu, she recognized him.
Maybe after that smokescreen, the people changed.
Wei Shu is very cunning, and now he has enough time to escape.
They sent so many people to guard Prince Chen's Mansion, but they were unable to keep it under control. It turned out that it was because he had a substitute, and judging from the situation, he had more than one substitute.
Now that Wei Shu's identity has been exposed, he will definitely not return to Prince Chen's Mansion.
But as long as he is still in Shangjing, he can be caught.
Wei Shu's goal was to support Prince Xin to ascend the throne, and as long as his goal was not achieved, he would not leave his circles in Shangjing City.
When Si Yan and Boya rushed to Prince Yong's Mansion, the gate was closed and there was the sound of fighting inside.
Si Yan and Boya went forward and pushed the door open. The doorman inside heard the sound and ran over bravely. Seeing that it was Si Yan, he quickly opened the door.
A bloody smell hit me in the face, and the yard was littered with the corpses of men in black.
Qi Ziyu, along with the men from the Blood Shadow Sect and the guards from Prince Yong's Mansion, were fighting with the men in black, while Ling Mohan came forward with the men from the Left Guard Mansion to help.
There were not many men in black left. The last dozen or so tried desperately to escape, but failed. In the end, they were either killed or committed suicide by taking poison.
The battle is coming to an end.
Judging from the situation in the yard, some of the black-clad killers were shot and fell to the ground, while others were caught in a net. It was obvious that a trap had been set up in Prince Yong's Mansion to prevent the killers from entering.
In the middle of the yard, Qi Ziyu was covered in blood, having just dealt with the last killer.
Si Yan strode towards him: "Is your Highness okay?"
"I'm fine." Qi Ziyu replied softly, "My body is covered in the blood of the enemy."
This is the third wave of assassins entering Prince Yong's Mansion since the first month of the year.
The killer tonight is obviously much more powerful than before.
Fortunately, he was well prepared and set a trap in advance, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with.
"I'm glad you're okay." Si Yan replied.
Qi Ziyu said seriously, "Ah Yan, these killers are different from the previous ones. Their martial arts skills are much higher than before."
Si Yan spoke slowly, "Beimang Country is sending people to Daxuan. They are likely coming with Di Hao. Someone broke into the Zuowei Mansion tonight in order to rescue Di Hao."
"Who is it?" Qi Ziyu asked.
"It was Wei Shu, but he escaped."
"Should we go directly to Prince Chen's mansion to arrest him?"
"I'm afraid he is no longer in Prince Chen's Mansion." Now that Wei Shu's identity has been exposed, he will definitely look for a safer hiding place.
He currently has control over the Xin family. It doesn't matter where he is, as long as he can convey his message.
Boya said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. We have people all over the capital. If he makes any move, we will know where he is."
Qi Ziyu nodded. He didn't expect that behind the Xin family, there was a man with unknown origins, who was most likely a Beimang native.
Si Yan said, "When the next court meeting comes, we will be able to overthrow Xin Rui and make Wei Shu have one less hiding place."
"Okay, Ayan."
Qi Ziyu knew that Si Yan had been preparing for a long time. If the court meeting had not been postponed twice, Xin Rui would probably be in jail now.
At this moment, a carriage suddenly arrived at the gate of Prince Yong's Mansion, and a eunuch from the palace got off the carriage.
When the eunuch walked to the gate of Prince Yong's Mansion, he smelled the pungent smell of blood and saw corpses all over the floor. His face turned pale.
The old butler, Li Bo, came out quickly and said to the eunuch, "Don't be alarmed, eunuch. Someone tried to assassinate the prince, and they have all been executed."
"Okay, okay." The eunuch trembled and looked inside. "Is His Royal Highness Prince Yong here?"
"The king is here."
Qi Ziyu walked forward and looked at the eunuch in front of him. This was Eunuch Huang, the eunuch beside his father. He recognized him.
When Eunuch Huang saw Prince Yong, he couldn't help but wipe away his tears and said, "Your Highness, Prince Yong, His Majesty is critically ill. You and Lord Si Yan are summoned to the palace immediately."
Qi Ziyu's eyebrows jumped, and he grabbed the eunuch's arm and said, "Eunuch Huang, how is our father?"
Eunuch Huang said in a tearful voice, "His Majesty has been ill for a while now, and his condition is very poor. He needs to see you and Lord Si Yan immediately tonight."
"I'll change my clothes and go to the palace right away." Qi Ziyu turned around and went back to the house to change his blood-stained clothes.
Si Yan raised his eyes to look at the eunuch: "Eunuch Huang, is there nothing that the genius doctor Yunya can do to cure His Majesty's illness?"
"Alas..." Eunuch Huang couldn't help but sigh and said to Si Yan, "Yes, Divine Doctor Yunya is at his wit's end. Otherwise, His Majesty wouldn't have canceled the court meeting twice. His Majesty's health is almost unable to hold on."
As he spoke, Eunuch Huang couldn't help but shed tears again.
Si Yan comforted him, "Don't be sad, Eunuch Huang. Divine Doctor Yunya will definitely find a way to save Your Majesty."
Eunuch Huang raised his eyes to look at Si Yan: "Well, Your Majesty will surely get better."
Si Yan turned around and looked at Ling Mohan. She walked forward gently and stuffed a note that had been written long ago into Ling Mohan's hand.
Ling Mohan raised his eyes and looked at Si Yan, and immediately knew that the situation today was extremely serious.
Qi Ziyu changed his clothes and got into the carriage with Si Yan.
The carriage rumbled all the way to the palace.
