Dressed as the prince's substitute? I took the throne

Zhou Chuxuan immediately became alert, holding the pistol in his hand, bullets loaded, ready to attack at any time.

In the darkness, Zhou Chuxuan stared at the roof, thinking to himself, it seems that some people can't wait to get rid of him.

Now that he knew that he was still alive and wanted to kill himself, Zhou Chuxuan had only one answer in his mind: Yang Li!

shhhhhh!

Soon, several figures landed in front of the door and blew several poisonous needles into the house through the window paper, which pierced the wall. Under the moonlight, Zhou Chuxuan could still clearly see the cold light flashing on the poisonous needles.

creak.

Soon, the door was gently pushed open, and several figures rolled in one after another. They walked to the front of the bed, raised the long swords in their hands and chopped down suddenly.

Suddenly, the leading man in black realized something was wrong: "Stop!"

It was soft and there was no blood spurting out, it didn't look like it had hit anyone.

The leading man in black slowly reached out and lifted the quilt, but found only pillows and bedding inside, with no human figure at all.

"not good!"

When they realized they had been tricked, Zhou Chuxuan had already appeared behind them: "Go to hell!"

Bang bang bang!

The pistol fired continuously, directly sending the unsuspecting men in black to meet their death. They had never touched a pistol before, let alone understood its speed.

They were all killed instantly, leaving only the leader in black with a last breath. He whispered to Zhou Chuxuan, "Help... Save me, save me! I'll tell you everything I know!"

Zhou Chuxuan gently lit the candle and asked with interest, "How do you want me to save you? Bandage your wounds, or call for help?"

"Your Highness!"

Nangong Yanling and Murong Xue rushed into the house upon hearing the noise. When they saw the corpses all over the floor, they couldn't help but feel a sense of fear. They were now Zhou Chuxuan's bodyguards, yet they allowed so many people to come in without noticing.

"It's okay. Go and drag their bodies out. Also, Miss Nangong, there must be scouts watching around. Go and take care of them!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Zhou Chuxuan continued to look at the dying man in black: "The bullet pierced your chest. At the rate you're bleeding, you'll be dead in less than a cup of tea."

"If I want to save you, I have to take out the bullet, bandage the wound and sew it up. But you are my enemy, why should I save you?"

Seeing Zhou Chuxuan's leisurely pace, the man in black was so anxious that he almost cried. He was a martial arts expert and had suffered for many years before he could follow Yang Li. He was about to become famous and successful, but he didn't want to die here.

"I'm telling you, I'm telling you Yang Li's plan. I know his entire plan!"

Zhou Chuxuan shook his head. "But I don't want to hear it. What's so good about a dying man's plan? Yang Li, including the manipulator behind him, are just clowns. It won't be long before I take their lives!"

"you you......"

"No!"

Soon, as the blood dried up, the man in black fell to the ground and died.

At the same time, Nangong Yanling walked in holding a bloody sword: "Your Highness, it's all solved. There were three people in total, kill them all!"

Looking at the wounds and torn clothes on Nangong Yanling's body, Zhou Chuxuan frowned and said, "Master?"

"Hmm!" Nangong Yanling hesitated for a moment. "They are all masters, highly skilled in martial arts, ruthless in their methods, and especially adept at using hidden weapons! Once they engage in close combat, equality for all beings will be useless."

Zhou Chuxuan nodded and took out a bottle of medicine from under the bed: "Take it and use it. I got this from the imperial physician a while ago."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Nangong Yanling took the golden medicine and applied it directly on the wound without even going back to the house.

"Your Highness, how about we two sleep on the floor in your room? This is the first wave of assassins, but I have a feeling it won't be the last!"

Nangong Yanling's suggestion not only stunned Murong Xue, but even Zhou Chuxuan laughed and said, "Don't you even look at General Murong? Her face has turned green!"

"You! I didn't!"

Murong Xue glared at Zhou Chuxuan fiercely: "However, I can stand guard outside the door!"

"Outside?"

Zhou Chuxuan shook his head: "Forget it, if you stand guard outside the door, even a fool will know that there is someone in this room. Wouldn't that reveal the news that I am still alive in advance?"

"Drag those bodies out and hand them over to General Hu Yongwei of the Imperial Guard. Have him hang them up and then say that these Liao spies were executed on the spot by the palace guards for attempting to disrespect King Xiaoyao's coffin!"

"it is good!"

Murong Xue scratched her hair and asked in confusion, "Your Highness, what do you mean?"

"Of course, we want to let the people see the incompetence of the current court and the stupidity of Emperor Wu. He allowed the Liao spies to stir up trouble in the Wu Dynasty, but he did nothing!"

"When the public opinion storm reaches its peak tomorrow, we will take action. The Imperial Guards will cooperate with the Fuling Army to charge directly into the Heavenly Prison and kill all those Liao spies!"

"Okay, you two should get ready too!"

"Yes!"

The next morning, several corpses were hung high at the city gate, with guards guarding nearby and notices posted on the wall.

"A Liao spy sneaked into Prince Xiaoyao's palace last night, intending to destroy the coffin and smash the memorial tablet. He was killed on the spot by the palace guards!"

As the contents of the notice were read, the people below suddenly became indignant.

"What on earth is this imperial court doing? They're actually allowing Liao spies to run rampant in our capital?"

"They can even get into the palace. If they want to kill us, wouldn't that be easy?"

"Oh my God, if even the capital of the Wu Dynasty is no longer safe, is there any place for the Wu Dynasty to survive?"

"What is our Majesty doing?"

"Haha, isn't that emperor pursuing immortality? How could he have the time to care about us?"

Zhou Chuxuan sent several soldiers dressed in civilian clothes to spread rumors among the crowd.

As a result, the people's calls quickly reached a peak.

"These Liao spies should all be arrested and executed. The entire city should work together to arrest the remaining ones!"

"That's right. If we allow these Liao spies to act recklessly in the capital, who will own this capital?"

"Kill the spy, kill the spy!"

Zhou Chuxuan disguised himself and mingled with the crowd, watching as thousands of people gathered on the streets and began shouting for the killing of the Liao spies.

"The time has come!"

Zhou Chuxuan whispered to the soldier beside him, "Go, tell General Han that the operation can begin!"

"Be fast!"
