"We are Empress Dowager Dong's men, here to take Liu Wei's dog's life!"

The remaining ten people were completely dumbfounded and at a loss.

Only the eldest brother and the youngest brother took advantage of the chaos to sneak behind the main tent.

More than twenty people emerged from among the men Cui Hao had brought and rushed over to support him.

The remaining people were equally bewildered and stood there in place.

Yang Yi and the other three guards were prepared. When Liu Wei was attacked by Cui Hao and the other four, they had already drawn their swords and were guarding the entrance of the tent.

The servants inside and outside the tent stood up, brandished their weapons, and blocked the way.

Not far away, the sound of hooves and footsteps thundered, as if countless armored knights were charging in.

"They were prepared, we've been exposed, we have no choice but to fight!"

Empress Dowager Dong's forty assassins, relying on their superior numbers, engaged Yang Yi and more than ten Imperial Guards. Then, the assassin leader tore open the tent, led two men around to the side, and rushed in.

Inside the large tent, Shen Lian and Cui Hao, along with three others, were locked in a fierce battle.

Cui Hao and his four companions adopted a reckless fighting style, continuing to fight desperately even after being struck by Shen Lian's sword.

Shen Lian was unable to kill them all in one go.

Moreover, Liu Wei had previously instructed that Cui Hao be captured alive, which made Shen Lian worry about overdoing it and feel somewhat constrained.

Chen Ji and Cai Yong had already been sheltered in a corner by their entourage.

The two were still in a daze, completely unaware of what was happening.

At this moment, the leader of the assassins rushed in, glanced around the room, and saw Liu Wei standing to the side with his hands behind his back, seemingly watching a show.

He immediately roared, "Follow me! Kill the King of Clouds!"

The leader of the assassins lunged at Liu Wei with his bare hands, followed closely by two others.

When Wei Ji and several other officials saw this, they tried to stop them, but were intercepted by two henchmen of the leader of the suicide squad.

"Hehehe!"

"King of the Clouds, it is Empress Dowager Dong who wants your life!"

The leader of the assassins emphasized Empress Dowager Dong once again, then leaped into the air and appeared in front of Liu Wei, his fist the size of a sandbag smashing down on Liu Wei's head!
