If that's the case, then we are underestimating them.

The Second Prince put on a smile and said, "Don't worry, Eunuch. There aren't any wild beasts here, and I'm used to living here. It wouldn't be troublesome to move around, would it?"

Eunuch Dexi still looked at the second prince with a smile, but there was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes. The emperor asked him to test the second prince, so it seemed that the second prince definitely had the intention of rebellion.

Fearing that this might alert the enemy, Eunuch Dexi stopped trying to persuade him: "Alright, then we won't move. However, for the Second Prince's safety, I will arrange for some people to stay here. If anything happens, your Majesty will be informed immediately."

The second prince looked at the group of people standing outside the palace with a rather grim expression. Are they trying to monitor him?

However, the second prince did not refuse. He asked Eunuch Dexi to keep the person and then went back.

At this point, the Second Prince didn't even want to pretend anymore. Did they really think they could stop them with just these people?

Hu Yansui walked out with an expression of anticipation, "It seems that your father, the Emperor, has begun to be wary of you, Second Prince."

The Second Prince said with a cold face, "Being on guard against me is also being on guard against you, isn't it?"

After saying that, he went back to his room to rest, as he had a tough battle to fight in the evening.

Eunuch Dexi looked at the palace walls and the closed palace gates in the dark and sighed reluctantly. This was the last chance His Majesty gave to the Second Prince. What a pity.

Without staying any longer, Eunuch Dexi arranged for his men to guard the Second Prince's palace and hurried back. There were other people waiting for his notification, and tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

The emperor secretly told several trusted ministers about the second prince's plan to rebel, and when he returned to the palace this time, he specially let them live together.

When many ministers learned that the Second Prince was going to conspire with Huyan Sui to rebel, they were so frightened that their legs went weak and they shrank back tremblingly, not daring to show up.

The emperor was so annoyed that he simply closed his eyes. The third prince stood in front of the emperor with a calm mind, which gave many ministers a lot of psychological comfort.

The emperor and the third prince were not afraid. What did they have to be afraid of? However, many female members of the family began to cry quietly.

After Eunuch Dexi came back, he whispered a few words in the emperor's ear. The emperor opened his eyes and a trace of heartache flashed in his eyes. No matter how bad the second prince was, he was still his biological son. The emperor still felt uncomfortable when he knew that he wanted to rebel.

Chu Jinglin stepped forward and asked, "Father, are you okay?"

The emperor held his forehead and said tiredly, "It's okay, do it according to the plan. I'm tired and I'll leave everything to you."

"Yes, father." Chu Jinglin's expression changed and he bent down to answer.

Chu Jinglin stood up and nodded to Eunuch Dexi. Eunuch Dexi waved the whisk in his hand and said respectfully: "Yes, Your Highness, I will do it right away."

Eunuch Dexi knew that the third prince would be the ultimate winner after this crisis.

The other ministers were confused and had no idea what the emperor was up to.

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and the heavy rain showed no sign of stopping.

Han Xiao stayed outside the door all night without sleeping. He had a premonition that tonight would be a sleepless night.

In order not to worry the young master, Han Xiao asked Chuyi to give the young master and Chaochao a dose of sleeping pills, letting them fall asleep.

Worried that the medicine hadn't worked, Han Xiao went back to the room to check again. Chao Chao was sleeping soundly in the young master's arms.

Both of their little faces were rosy from sleep, so adorable. The young master felt Han Xiao's familiar breath rubbing against his palm, but his furrowed brows made people feel that the young master was very uneasy even if he fell asleep.

Suddenly, the tightly closed door was pushed open by Chuyi, and the sound of wind and rain outside the door came in. Chuyi's face was solemn and he said in a low voice: "Sir, someone is coming."

Han Xiao stood up with a stern expression. "|Go out and take a look. Chuyi, you stay here and guard."

Chuyi nodded and followed Han Xiao out of the room. Shiwu was already waiting outside the door with a long knife in his hand.

Seeing Han Xiao and Chuyi coming out, Shiwu's expression was not very good. As a martial artist, his senses were much more sensitive than Han Xiao's.

"I'm afraid there will be quite a few people coming this time, so why don't you stay inside and guard the young master."

Han Xiao picked up his spear and shook his head: "No, I'll go outside. You two stay here and don't let anyone get close. Got it?"

"It's my son-in-law." At this moment, Chuyi and Shiwu were extremely serious. They knew that if someone came in, it would mean that Han Xiao and the others could no longer hold on. They were the last line of defense.

Although he was worried about Han Xiao's safety, he had no other choice at the moment. Even if Chuyi was strong, he couldn't help but tear up at this moment.

He bit his lip and promised Han Xiao that if anyone wanted to go in, they would have to step over his body.

Han Xiao was very relieved about the first and fifteenth days of the new year. Looking at the heavy rain outside the door, Han Xiao took a deep breath and walked out.

It will be a tough battle tonight, but he is determined not to lose, as his parents, lover and children are behind him.

Han Xiao's eyes were firm as he looked at the enemy hiding in the darkness through the dense rain.

Xing Yi was holding a big knife. Seeing Han Xiao coming out, he said worriedly: "Master, why did you come out? We are here outside..."

Lu Cheng also looked over, obviously dissatisfied with Han Xiao's appearance now.

Han Xiao ignored the two of them, raised his hand to tell Xing Yi not to say anything more, and stood with them with a firm look in his eyes.

Seeing this, Xing Yi knew that Han Xiao had made up his mind and stopped trying to persuade him. However, Lu Cheng still disagreed. He also knew Han Xiao well. He was really afraid that if a fight broke out, Han Xiao would be dead if he failed to keep an eye on him. Then the Third Prince would definitely not let him go.

He sighed inwardly and signaled the guards around him to keep an eye on Han Xiao when a fight broke out, and to make sure that no one really killed Han Xiao, otherwise he would have a hard time explaining to the emperor and the third prince.

Han Xiao noticed Lu Cheng's actions and did not stop him. He let him go. Anyway, he would see the real result later.

"Here they come." Suddenly Lu Cheng became alert and stood up straight, ready to meet the enemy.

The walls of the palace are very high and can provide some defense.

The enemy had many people and although the palace was large, it could not accommodate 50,000 people, so many people were kept outside.

The hardest-hit area now is the palace where the emperor and the third prince live. Not far away, there is already a flame, and screams and roars can be heard faintly.

Han Xiao's heart suddenly tightened, knowing that the enemy would be coming soon and he didn't know how long the emperor could hold out.

Touching the arm crossbow on his arm, Han Xiao's eyes were cold. No matter how many enemies there were, they would never take a single step inside.

However, it is gratifying that the Imperial Guards are well-equipped and can barely hold their own against three. Now Han Xiao doesn't know the situation ahead and can only wait anxiously.
