Chapter 212 Assassination

In a garden in Ancheng, the capital of Yu Kingdom

Several people sitting in the room lowered their heads, looking cautious. Sitting on the main seat was a man wearing a purple-gold crown, with a dark complexion, gloomy eyes, and a face full of anger. There was a broken cup on the ground, and it looked like he had just lost his temper!

This person is none other than Yu Kingdom’s eldest prince Yuwen Heng.

A masked man in black flew to the gate of the courtyard, knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and said to the man in the main seat:

"Master, I haven't found any suspicious people around the Third Prince, and I have no chance of getting the weapon he holds. Both his day and night guards have such powerful weapons. None of our men will survive!"

Yuwen Heng's face was tense, his eyes were red with anger, and his eyes were gleaming with coldness.

He had sent out ten of his Four Warriors, yet they couldn't even kill a useless, powerless loser who had no martial arts skills! What a joke! A huge joke!

In the end, all ten of his assassins died? How could he believe it?

He clenched his fist, veins popping out on the back of his hand, and punched the table next to him, breaking it into two pieces.

Her voice, gnashing her teeth, was filled with murderous intent. "Find out for me who the Third Prince contacted when he went to Yueqi Country? I don't believe he, a loser, could suddenly become so powerful! I want to see who's backing him!"

The man sitting to the lower left of the leader raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, I feel that the Third Prince's weapon is very strange. I have never seen him use it before. Instead, he only used it after returning from a trip to Yueqi Kingdom. Could the reason behind this be related to Yueqi Kingdom?

Furthermore, during the previous war between Yueqi and Sangyou, I heard that Yueqi's explosives were very powerful, with one bomb capable of killing dozens of people and creating a several-meter-deep crater in the ground."

Another man sitting below continued, "That's right, Your Highness. If the Third Prince goes to Yueqi Country to make an alliance, and if this alliance is very powerful, then the threat to you will increase.

"I believe that before we find out what the Third Prince is up to, Your Highness must find a way to get the Emperor to issue the decree appointing you as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince as soon as possible! This will prevent any further complications."

Yuwen Heng said disdainfully: "Humph, I also want my father to issue the imperial edict to confer the title of Crown Prince as soon as possible, but since Yuwen Ting returned from Yueqi Kingdom, my father has attached more and more importance to him. The imperial edict to confer the title of Crown Prince on me should have been issued three months ago.

It was delayed again and again. Even when I asked the ministers in the court to put pressure on my father, my father just evaded the issue.

You can't ask me to ask Father in person, right? The second son has already been imprisoned for saying a few more words, so how can I dare to show off now! "

"The Third Prince's intentions are clear. We underestimated him in the past. Now it seems that the Third Prince is our strongest enemy! Your Highness should make plans soon."

"I didn't expect the Third Prince to be so cunning. However, no matter how powerful he is, he is still no match for Your Highness!"

Yu Wenheng's face was gloomy, and his voice was filled with murderous intent: "Excluding the Crown Prince of Yueqi Kingdom, I think the most likely candidate is the Prince of Yu!"

As the words fell, the people sitting below were all startled and looked at each other in confusion:

"Your Highness, if it's that Prince Yu, then the Third Prince's status will rise dramatically! Your Highness should come up with a plan as soon as possible!"

"Your Highness, I have heard that the Prince of Yueqi Country commands a large army and is decisive in killing people. He has always held a high position and never takes anyone seriously. Even the Emperor regards him as a thorn in his side, but he cannot take his military power back. There is nothing he can do!"

"I'd like to ask, Your Highness, how did you manage to exclude the Crown Prince of Yueqi? And why did Prince Yu want to help the Third Prince? Doesn't Your Highness find this incredible?"

Yuwen Heng snorted coldly and said, "I have been exchanging letters with the Crown Prince of Yueqi Kingdom for a long time! So he has no connection with Yuwen Ting!

I have tragically lost twelve of my loyal followers, and now I am in dire need of new personnel. I will write to Yueqi State and ask the Crown Prince to help investigate. At court, you will also continue to find ways to put pressure on my father to make me the Crown Prince as soon as possible!"

Hearing this, several people nodded repeatedly

"Yes, Your Highness! You will certainly help us!"

After a long while, Yuwen Heng shouted in a deep voice: "Come here!"

A gust of wind blew through the house, and four men in black fell from the sky.

"I am here! Please give your orders, Your Highness!"

"Assassinate the Third Prince at all costs!" I demand you bring me his head!"

"Yes! I obey your command!"

Another gust of wind blew, and the four of them disappeared in the house in an instant.

These four people are the most powerful among the death squads he raised. Their martial arts skills are unfathomable. He just doesn't believe in evil. Let's see how Yuwen Ting can escape this time.

…

The Third Prince's Mansion

Yu Wenting was lying on the bed with a pale face. The doctor came hurriedly with a medicine box.

Bai Tian, ​​who was standing by, hurriedly said to the doctor, "Hurry up and check the injury on His Highness's arm!"

"Your Highness, it's too late. Let me take a look at the wound first."

"Your Highness has lost too much blood. Just rest carefully for a few days."

After saying that, the doctor took out the hemostatic powder from the medicine box and sprinkled it on the wound, then wrapped the wound with cloth, and the bleeding stopped in a short while!

I also prescribed some wound healing and warming medicines.

After the doctor left, Yu Wenting on the bed slowly opened his eyes, his mouth dry.

“Water…water…”

During the day, I was busy bringing the water on the table to him and feeding him

"Your Highness, the doctor has prescribed some medicine. You need to rest more these days!"

Yu Wenting nodded and said in a hoarse voice: "You and Heiye are not injured, right?"

Bai Tian shook his head and said, "I didn't get hurt, thanks to the weapon His Highness gave me! That little piece of iron is so powerful! It kills people as long as you aim carefully! It's so useful! If it weren't for this thing, we would have been in great danger this time."

Yu Wenting asked in a deep voice: "Have those people found out who sent them?"

"Your Highness, Heiye and I have checked those twelve men. They are all assassins, and each of them has extremely strong martial arts skills. There are not many people in Ancheng who can afford so many assassins. Moreover, these assassins' skills were definitely not cultivated overnight. I'm afraid they have been planning this for a long time! If we follow this clue and investigate, the results will be revealed in a few days!"

Yu Wenting nodded heavily: "Pay attention these days! I suspect it's Yu Wenheng! Deal with the horse farm matter as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble!"

"Yes, I obey your command!"

Yu Wenting waved his hand and said, "Back off!"

Then he took out the spiritual spring water given by his sister from the secret compartment at the head of the bed, drank a few sips, and the pain in his arm was relieved a little, and he closed his eyes deeply.

…

At the same time, Helian Chi and Yun Li finally arrived at the territory of Yu Kingdom after five days of long journey without stopping.
