The Second Prince put his hands behind his back and said, "Half and half! My royal brother told them that the two men are dead, which may be true, but as for the murderer..." He shifted his gaze to the Sixth Prince.

The Sixth Prince paused and stammered, "Second brother, why are you looking at me like this? Could it be that the Emperor has found out that I am..."

The Second Prince curled his lips and said, "Do you think my brother is a fool? Don't forget that this is the capital, under the feet of the emperor. If he can't find out what happened right before his eyes, then there is no point in him being the emperor."

"Then why didn't he tell them?" There was nothing strange in the way the two of them looked at him just now!

If they knew that he was the one who hurt their city lord and his wife, they would definitely not be so calm when they saw him.

"Maybe it's for the reputation of the Northern Frontier, or maybe..." It's also possible that the emperor's brother deliberately didn't say it.

If the people in North City really find out that it was Lao Liu who did it, he can use this as an excuse to get rid of Lao Liu.

The second prince felt that he had discovered the truth.

Even the look on his face when he looked at Lao Liu became a little more sympathetic.

"Second brother, don't look at me like that." He felt uneasy.

The Second Prince twitched his lips, suppressed what he wanted to say, and patted him on the shoulder, "Alright, let's discuss what to do next!"

For the first time, the Second Prince felt that it was useless to think so much. Now it was probably not a question of whether he wanted to seize the throne or not, but that he had to seize it.

If it is really as he guessed, this time it is the sixth brother, but next time it is hard to say which of the brothers it will be.

Whether it was the three of them or him, they were all closely related. No matter who messed up, none of them could remain unscathed.

Instead of passively taking a beating, it is better to take this opportunity to fight hard.

If they succeed, they will all survive.

If you fail, the worst that can happen is death.

***

three days later

Li Tianze received the message sent by Uncle Li and others.

In order to facilitate contact with Uncle Li and the others, they went down the mountain ten days ago.

Now they are hiding in a farm outside the city. It is extremely desolate here and there are no people around, which makes it convenient for them to act.

"Can't I really go?" Leng Youran pulled Li Tianze's clothes and swayed them left and right.

Before Li Tianze could say anything, You Xian spoke up, "Just stay here and be quiet." As he said that, he stuffed a bunch of medicine into Li Tianze's hand.

"Youyou, wait for me to come back." He rubbed Leng Youran's head lovingly and wanted to say something.

You Xian urged, "Alright, alright, stop acting like you can't leave your wife. Xiao Li and the others are still waiting outside!"

Leng Youran......

From Tianze...

Only the master would call Uncle Li "Xiao Li".

After Li Tianze came out of the space, Uncle Li and Li Yi were waiting outside. Li Tianze gave them the medicinal powder that You Xian gave him.

"Distribute them."

After he said this, he saw that the two of them didn't say a word and just kept staring at him.

Li Tianze reached out and wiped his face, "My wife said that it would be easier to do things if I changed my appearance."

Leng Youran stood at the exit of the space, looking at the direction where Li Tianze and the others left with envy.

You Xian gently grabbed her collar from behind and lifted her up effortlessly, as if she were a chick. As they walked, he kept saying, "What are you looking at? Go back and rest quickly. If you don't want to rest, go take a walk in the vegetable garden."

Leng Youran's lips were pouted so high that an oil bottle could be hung on them.

She broke free from his shackles, turned around unhappily and walked towards the vegetable garden behind the villa.

On the other hand, Li Tianze and Uncle Li and others had successfully entered the city.

Li Shuai frowned when he saw the scarred man in front of him. He asked uncertainly, "Are you really Li Tianze?"

Li Tianze was also helpless. He always felt that his wife had deliberately made him look like this. "Yeah, yes."

Li Shuai finally believed it after hearing his voice, "Okay, we are ready here too, everything will go well tonight."

"You too."

Not long after Li Shuai left, the Second Prince sent someone over.

Uncle Li had already conveyed their intentions to Li Tianze. They would take action tonight, and what they were asked to do was to harass the patrol soldiers in the capital.

Li Tianze didn't say a word the whole time. Uncle Li took care of everything. The visitor didn't even notice the person standing behind Uncle Li and Li Yi.

After they left, Uncle Li walked up to Li Tianze and said, "Sir, you also know their plan. We are..."

"Do as he says."

The sky gradually darkened, and heavy snow fell in the evening after several days of sunny weather.

Li Tianze looked up at the sky, and snowflakes fell on his black nightgown and then turned into water.

Li Yi and the others had already put on the down jackets given by Leng Youran, so they didn't feel cold even though they only had a layer of clothing on the outside.

The same was true for Li Tianze, so even if the strong wind and snow mixed together and blew down, they could not penetrate his body at all.

"Master, the time has come." Li Yi's voice sounded from behind him.

Li Tianze nodded slightly, "Action."

A group of people quietly disappeared from the backyard of the inn.

As they disappeared, sounds of fighting were heard all over the capital.

The Second Prince stood behind the mansion gate, followed by teams of soldiers. The person who was observing in the dark came back from outside and landed beside him and nodded to him.

The Second Prince raised the sword in his hand and said, "There are assassins in the imperial city. Enter the palace to protect the emperor."

As a group of people rushed out, they also released signal flares. The Fourth and Fifth Princes outside the city smiled at each other and said to those behind them without even turning their heads while riding their horses: "Let's go into the city."

With the "cooperation" of Li Tianze and others, the army entered the city unimpeded without the obstruction of the patrol camp.

Because it was night, the streets were particularly quiet, and even the usually bustling brothels seemed to have suddenly become silent.

The people in the city also heard the orderly footsteps of the large army outside, and they hid in their homes and dared not go out.

Some brave ones hid behind their doors or under windows and secretly observed the situation outside.

Everyone was shocked to see the rows of soldiers entering the city.

"How is this going?"

"Who knows?"

"..."

"It's over, it's over, is this going to be another war?"

"Obviously!"

Such sounds can be heard from almost every household.

His tone was also filled with fear.

But no matter how scared they were, war eventually broke out outside the imperial city.

Uncle Li and the others changed into the patrol battalion's uniforms as agreed with the Second Prince, and easily entered the imperial city. After they entered the imperial city, they opened the palace gate as agreed.

The guards on the side must have received the notice long ago. When they saw them open the city gate, they only fought with them symbolically and were quickly "defeated". They did not even retreat towards the entrance of the hall.
