nterpersonal relationships, the most important thing to avoid is speaking too deeply with someone you barely know. This applies to everyone, regardless of their social status or profession.If you say...Chapter 454: Second Assassination Attempt
Zhang Biwu fell silent, and along with Wang Tenghuan, he looked at Zhao Xuanji.
In this small group, any decision ultimately requires Zhao Xuanji's approval.
As always, today is no exception.
Zhao Xuanji's eyes were deep and unreadable.
Fu Yu Zhi softly said, “Grand Advisor, a woman’s compassion will only bring harm.”
Zhao Xuanji glanced at Fu Yuzhi and stood up, saying, "Let's do it your way, Brother Fu."
The remaining three looked at each other, then rose and said, "As you wish, esteemed elder."
......
At the same time, at Duke Wen's heir's residence, the heir wrote a letter and handed it to someone beside him, saying: "This letter is of great importance. Keep it close to you and immediately deliver it to your father. Then bring back your father's order. Remember, people can die, but letters cannot be lost."
This man solemnly took the letter, hiding it in his inner pocket. He bowed to Prince Wen of the state and turned away.
At Prince Zhao's mansion, Li Yinhǔ also received the news.
His first reaction was disbelief.
It is unknown how many people have invited Dàntái Jìng out of seclusion, but none have ever succeeded. How did the prince succeed on his first try
A wave of messages, one after another, forced him to believe that the situation was developing in the worst possible way.
Seeing that the East Palace would see a sudden surge in power once it gained the support of Dantai Jing, Li Yinhou was extremely anxious.
This time he was smarter, not acting rashly, but intending to go to Zhao Xuanji's place to inquire about the situation.
Just as he was about to leave the house, a stunning woman suddenly appeared in the courtyard. She had bare feet, floated above the ground, and wore white from head to toe, with only a light veil covering her face.
Of course, she is the holy maiden of the White Lotus sect.
Seeing the Saintess's body, Li Yinhu's heart skipped a beat. A complex emotion of both fear and greed intertwined in his heart, making his expression somewhat complicated.
On one hand, he was afraid of the saintess's unparalleled martial arts skills. On the other hand, he was deeply infatuated with her beauty.
"Saint..."
Before Li Yinhu could finish his sentence, the Holy Maiden spoke up: "These days, there have been rumors circulating in the martial world that the White Lotus Sect possesses a treasure called the Dragon-Slaying Sword. It is said that the Dragon-Slaying Sword not only contains peerless martial arts but also grants its wielder control over the entire martial world!"
This matter has caused a stir among the major sects of the Jianghu. The White Lotus Sect has also been attacked by many so-called righteous sects, demanding that they hand over the Dragon Slaying Sword.
Li Yinhu was taken aback and said, "Is there really such news"
As the prince of Zhao and also the eighth royal son, Li Yinhu was naturally not interested in things like the Dragon Slaying Sword. But what caught his attention was why the White Lotus Sect's Holy Maiden would come to him personally to tell him about this
The Holy Maiden's lips moved slightly as she spoke, "This matter has left me in a state of utter distress, and the higher echelons of the sect are furious. After an investigation, it appears that the source of this information is most likely from the Dongchang, and the mastermind behind this plot points directly to the Eastern Palace."
Li Yinhu sneered: “Such a despicable scheme is also in line with his style.”
"The Master has sent me a message, requiring me to plot great affairs once more. This time, I've come to the prince hoping for his cooperation in helping me kill one person."
Li Yinhu immediately frowned and said, "Didn't I say that the second assassination attempt against the prince should wait for an opportunity Right now is definitely not the time. Taking action recklessly will only lead to more casualties."
She shook her head and said, “It wasn’t an assassination attempt on the crown prince.”
"Who should we kill" Li Yinhǔ asked in confusion.
The saintess uttered two words plainly.
"Queen."
Even Li Yinhu, known for his deep thoughts and composure, was startled white with fear, almost jumping up in alarm.y personally performed by the crown princess for him.But the reward given by the Crown Princess made Jin Wannian wish he could buy dozens more of these cups."Commoner, commoner, thanks your Highness,...
