Chapter 191 The End of the Prince
Hengyang County is most famous in the north as the production area of ​​precious silk satin.

Even if you look at the entire Dahan Dynasty, it has the reputation of being the hometown of top-quality fabrics.

Therefore, many merchants from all over the country come to buy cloth and stock up all year round.

In previous years, these merchants would only visit less frequently around the end of the year.

However, this year in December, there were more caravans than ever before.

"It's really strange. It's almost the end of the year, why are there so many caravans coming to buy cloth?"

"Who knows."

Some civilians and merchants looked at the foreign caravans entering the city, confused.

These caravans kept a low profile and after entering the city, they each looked for inns and hotels to stay.

In addition, some martial artists entered the city in twos and threes. After arriving at Hengyang County, they subconsciously looked towards the high-level palace with inexplicably gloomy and fierce looks in their eyes.

It was as if there was an invisible net slowly covering the entire Hengyang County City.

Just before nightfall, a man entered the city in a low profile, looked towards the palace, and slowly took off his mask. It was Xiao Yanli who had rushed over.

The moment he appeared in Hengyang County, it also announced that his years of planning had finally been put into action.

Success or failure depends on this.

"The experts sent from Nanyang have arrived!" A subordinate came up to Xiao Yanli and whispered.

"Yeah." Xiao Yanli nodded.

The subordinate hesitated for a moment, then said, "Sir, do you really want to cooperate with Gu Wenhui? He is also a ruthless character. I am afraid that I will give so much and end up doing good for others."

“Gu Wenhui is calculating everything, and he naturally has his own plans for this cooperation, but it doesn’t matter. Right now our enemies and goals are the same. As long as we can overthrow Chu Jing and avenge this blood feud.

We’ll discuss what happens next later.” Xiao Yanli said slowly, expressionless.

"This..." After hearing this, although the subordinate still had concerns in his heart, he did not dare to ask any more questions.

"By the way, has Song Changming come?" Xiao Yanli suddenly remembered and asked.

"No." The subordinate shook his head.

"Forget it." Xiao Yanli murmured.

Song Changming is a master ranked on the Earth List, so it is worth his attention to ask him in private.

It’s a pity that the letter sent to Song Changming has not received any reply so far.

He felt somewhat regretful that he could not get Song Changming to join this operation, but even without Song Changming, a top fighter, he was still bound to carry out this operation!
The second prince must die tonight!

No one can save him!

The sky gradually darkened, and in the cold winter, night fell early.

The streets were freezing cold and soon deserted.

The cold wind was biting, and some dark shadows passed by silently, shuttling through the narrow and hidden alleys.

Even if there was a night watchman carrying a fire passing by, he would not notice the masters flying past him at all.

In the courtyards scattered throughout the city, people from many caravans, already wearing armor and helmets, holding swords and guns, carrying bows and crossbows, were waiting there quietly, fully armed.

A tea shop on a street corner.

Only one person was left, still sipping hot tea. The warmth flowed into his throat, dispelling some of the night chill.

"Sir, it's getting late. We're about to close." The shopkeeper came closer and said.

"Okay." Xiao Yanli nodded, put down a few copper coins, picked up his hat and sword, stood up and walked out of the tea shop.

I looked at the bright moon hanging in the sky and calculated that it was about time.

He walked towards the most conspicuous palace in the county town.

With a wave of his hand, a black crow landed in his palm.

"Let all this begin." Xiao Yanli murmured.

The black crows flapped their wings and flew quickly across the city.

At this time, the atmosphere in the palace was depressing.

"Bastard! Bastard!" The second prince Chu Jing was furious and overturned the wine glasses on the table.

"The end of the year is approaching, and even the imperial army has retreated, but Gu Wenhui is still advancing, approaching from all sides. Is he going to fight to the death with me?"

"Your Majesty, things have come to this point. All the generals have already led their troops to the battle. Please make sure to provide them with thick coats. Otherwise, the soldiers will get frostbite or freeze to death, which will be a huge blow to their morale!" said an old minister.

"But the national treasury has been in deficit for years, and this thick coat can't be produced out of thin air." Someone else shook his head.

"Then go get it from the people, go borrow it. War is about the fate of the country, do you need me to say something about such a small matter?" Chu Jing waved his sleeves impatiently and scolded. Several other officials heard this and opened their mouths, but swallowed the words back.

In fact, it was precisely because such incidents occurred more than once that the public resentment in the territory accumulated too much.

The second prince has long lost the support of the people
This is no small matter, but there seems to be no other way at the moment. If we don't do this, the outcome will only be even more bleak when we are really defeated.

At that time, the concern was not whether the people were dissatisfied, but the more serious situation.

Just as the Second Prince was furious, a burly man suddenly came in through the side door, walking like a dragon and a tiger.

"Your Majesty, there is a suspicious person outside the palace. He is quite powerful and is a martial artist of the highest level."

Upon hearing this, the second prince frowned and became subconsciously alert.

"Catch them and investigate thoroughly. Also, send more people to the palace to be on alert!"

He had encountered countless assassination attempts over the years.

Most of them were assassins sent by other powerful forces, of course there were also assassinations organized spontaneously by the public.

But in the end all ended in failure.

Even though all the soldiers under his command have gone off to the battlefield, the security around him is still the top priority, and there will not be any mistakes or mishaps.

Anyone who is suspicious enough to approach the palace will be discovered immediately and arrested for interrogation.

"Yes." Without any further conversation, the burly man turned and left.

clang!
Not long after, when the second prince was about to speak, a bell rang in the palace, startling everyone.

Once the alarm bell in the palace sounded, it must have meant that a major crisis had occurred.

The next moment, more than a dozen royal guards rushed in and protected the Second Prince, including the burly man who had just left.

His name is Duan Fangshuo, and he is the number one guard under the Second Prince.

His strength has already reached the Qi Refining Realm. He has protected the Second Prince for more than ten years and helped him escape danger many times.

He is also the second prince's most trusted guard.

"Your Majesty, please go to the Wei Palace for shelter." Duan Fangshuo said in a deep voice.

Chu Jing nodded, without asking what was going on, and hurriedly retreated with his men.

The Palace of Defense was specially built as a safe haven for the Second Prince. He would only retreat there when the situation became serious.

As soon as I walked out of the hall and turned my head, I saw dense rockets shooting over the high walls of the palace in the sky, illuminating the entire night sky red.

The rocket fell and the flames spread quickly.

The palace caught fire.

The sounds of killing and fighting followed, making the civil officials who followed him panic.

"Who on earth is so bold as to attack the palace tonight?" Chu Jing was furious.

Duan Fangshuo said nothing and took Chu Jing and others into the Wei Palace.

Afterwards, soldiers from the palace provided protection at every level, and even the rooftops were filled with guards armed with bows and crossbows.

Duan Fangshuo stood in front of the palace gate with his sword in hand, exuding a cold aura. He waited quietly, sensing any movement around him.

Tonight, no matter who wants to kill Chu Jing, they must step over his body!

"kill!"

At this time, on the steps outside the palace, two groups of soldiers were fighting each other.

One group is the elite guards of the palace, and the other group is the night attack team for tonight.

"Get out of the way!" A big and rough man, almost shirtless, holding a thick iron, pushed forward all the way. None of the ordinary soldiers could stop him.

He did not go to the gate of the palace. Facing the high wall of the palace, he directly swung the thick iron in his hand and smashed it down.

There was a dull thud, and a big hole was smashed into the high wall!

He rushed in, and the other warriors behind him looked at each other and rushed into the palace as well.

"Where is Chu Jing! I want to kill him!"

"Chu Jing, get out here!"

The waves of sound rolled over, almost covering the entire palace.

It was only at this point that I realized that I had written the wrong thing. If the readers hadn’t reminded me, I wouldn’t have noticed that I had written the Second Prince who had already become the emperor instead of another prince.

Considering that the plot has advanced to this point, I have made some changes to the previous article. The identities of the second and third princes are swapped, and the current emperor is replaced by the third prince.
It basically has no impact on the readers who have already read it.

Forgive me, forgive me.
