"In assassination, what matters is not which side has more powerful people, but whether it is unexpected enough!" Prince Jing said confidently.

Although in terms of overall strength, they are far inferior to the imperial guards inside the palace, plus the many new powerful people who have emerged.

But his greatest advantage is the trust of the old emperor, which those people do not have. When the time comes, he can pretend to have important intelligence to report.

Let the old emperor drive all those people away, and then attack and kill them after getting close to them!

As long as the old emperor dies, the imperial guards in the palace will be leaderless, and the power he has built up over the years will be able to play an important role.

He had promised the deputy commander of the imperial guards that as long as he ascended the throne, he would be enthroned as a king of a different surname and enjoy the treatment of a royal palace.

Although the rest of the imperial guards are absolutely loyal to the old emperor, only a small number of them are extremely loyal. Who would be loyal to a dead person?

Those who know the times will be able to continue to enjoy their original treatment.

"It seems that His Royal Highness Prince Jing already has a plan in mind!" Li Xuan suddenly felt that the situation on his side was not so bad.

At least Prince Jing was prepared. The first assassination attempt by the Tiandihui was to give him an opportunity to get close to the old emperor.

Otherwise, unless there was something important, the old emperor would never summon him into the palace.

Yan Jiu also breathed a sigh of relief. He originally thought that this was a hellish difficulty level. Not only was the overall strength at an absolute disadvantage, but even the Tiandihui had been instigated to rebel.

But fortunately, at least this Prince Jing is also an ally, and he is also prepared.

"The old emperor has no martial arts skills and is addicted to alcohol and women all day long. His body is not even as good as that of an ordinary person. It is easy for me to kill him."

Prince Jing raised his hand and slowly clenched it. He had imagined in his mind countless times the scene of killing the old emperor and replacing him.

Li Xuan watched him silently. At this moment, he suddenly felt that Prince Jing was not a wise ruler after he ascended the throne.

His ambition and methods are probably even greater than those of the old emperor. After enduring for so long and ascending to the throne, there will inevitably be another bloody storm.

This was another heavy blow to the crumbling Qin State, and the people would not have a good life.

But since the mission is to kill the old emperor, there is no need to interfere too much in other matters.

While he was thinking, Prince Jing had already cast his gaze over to him. "Everyone, disguise yourself as my guards and wait outside the palace. Once I kill the old emperor, you will need to cooperate with me to calm the situation."

"As long as we can stabilize the rest of the people present, the throne will be within reach."

As he spoke, the ambition in his eyes was about to overflow.

Then, he also promised: "If this is successful, the three of you will be credited with supporting the dragon. I will make you marquises, and reward you with a thousand acres of fertile land and a hundred thousand taels of gold!"

After it's done, our mission is completed and we will be teleported out directly.

Li Xuan and the other two all thought so in their hearts, but they still bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Highness!"

Prince Jing put his hands behind his back and nodded with satisfaction.

Just at this moment, an old man who looked like a eunuch and was wearing court robes came over quickly with small steps.

"Eunuch Wu!"

Prince Jing hurried forward and bowed, obviously he was an old acquaintance of the eunuch who delivered the message.

His face was already filled with worry. One had to admit that his acting skills were extraordinary; the ambition and joy he had just shown had long since disappeared.

"I heard that the Imperial Palace was suddenly attacked by the Tiandihui and other rebel groups. Is His Majesty okay?"

Eunuch Wu sighed deeply. "Ah, this was truly a dangerous time. Thanks to the intervention of those otherworldly masters, and also thanks to Your Majesty's great fortune, we were able to avert this danger."

Li Xuan was listening on the side. It seemed that the Tiandihui was well prepared this time and came out in full force. In this case, it was definitely not a simple disguise or test.

It seems that they don't really understand Prince Jing's thoughts and just use them as pawns. Prince Jing is just using them to test whether the old emperor has any hidden tricks.

I didn't expect that the old emperor actually had such a defense, but if I could take down the old emperor directly this time, then everything would be happy and I would be able to ascend the throne smoothly.

At the same time, it also weakened the power of the Tiandihui. After he ascended to the throne, he no longer needed such a force outside the control of the court.

But if he failed, he would not lose anything. Instead, he would put the old emperor in a state of frightened bird, so that the trust he had built up in the past could come in handy.

In a panic, they will inevitably summon themselves into the palace, and this will be the best opportunity.

After just one meeting, Li Xuan could feel the scheming and sophisticated thinking of Prince Jing. He was afraid that after he assassinated the old emperor.

Maybe they and others would be accused of assassinating the old emperor, but as long as the old emperor died, what happened afterwards would have nothing to do with them.

Prince Jing immediately put on a relieved expression: "That's good, that's good. When I heard that Your Majesty had been assassinated, I was so restless that I couldn't sit still for a moment!"

"Your Highness Prince Jing, now that you've heard such good news, you should be relieved."

Eunuch Wu comforted him, and suddenly his expression straightened up, and he said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty's order!"

Prince Jing also immediately remained solemn and listened quietly.

"The Imperial Palace has been hit by a sudden incident. Prince Jing has been summoned to discuss redeploying defenses!"

Prince Jing hurriedly bowed respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, I obey your order!"

He couldn't help but flash ecstasy in his lowered eyes. After waiting for so long, he finally got this chance!

Li Xuan and the other two looked at each other calmly.

Eunuch Wu said sternly, "Your Highness, please get ready and follow me into the palace!"
