"Although there were assassins who infiltrated the army, it doesn't mean they were sent by the Crown Prince or the Third Prince.

It is also possible that he was sent by Shi Wushuang.

Don't make any guesses before you figure it out.

If the prince had enough generosity and didn't want to deal with me, I wouldn't have become his enemy." said Ye.

Lei Ying didn't listen to these words at all.

The key point is that he thinks the possibility of the assassin being sent by Shi Wushuang is very low.

Either he was sent by the Crown Prince or the Third Prince, or the two of them have joined forces to deal with Ye.

But he wouldn't say these words explicitly.

All you need to do is investigate thoroughly and find out the other party's identity and everything will be clear.

"I obey your orders and will investigate these guys thoroughly!

However, since we know that the assassin has appeared in the military camp, His Highness's safety is of paramount importance.

I immediately sent more people to protect His Highness's safety.

We must not let them hurt His Highness in the slightest!"

"We can't send anyone to protect me at this time! Wouldn't that alert the enemy?

Don't worry, I will take care of my own safety.

Even if we send someone to protect them, we have to do it in secret so that these assassins can't detect us." Li Ye immediately rejected Lei Ying's suggestion.

Lei Ying understood instantly, and said with sudden enlightenment: "Your Highness, do you mean to use yourself as bait to lure the assassin to take action?

Although this is a good idea, it is actually too dangerous to do so.

How can we put His Highness in danger?"

"You have to believe in my strength. Now that I have done this, I am confident that I can protect my own safety.

Don't worry about what's going on here, just focus on investigating the enemy." said Ye.

Lei Ying hesitated for a moment before finally agreeing, "Well then, I will send experts to secretly protect Your Highness and investigate these people's backgrounds as quickly as possible."

"Even if you need to send protection, don't send too many people. Just a few elite experts will be enough.

Sending too many people would definitely alert the enemy.

Since these people can't sneak into the military camp to do things, they will definitely be very careful." Ye explained.

"I understand! Your Highness, please take care of yourself. I will take my leave now!"

Lei Ying felt the burden on his shoulders.

We must investigate this as soon as possible to protect our safety.

Leave the tent and take action immediately.

Investigate all the people the assassins came into contact with.

As soon as we take action, we will arrest them all and interrogate and investigate them.

I would rather wrongly accuse some people in the early stages than let anyone go.

The assassins who sneaked in included not only the Crown Prince and the Third Prince's men, but also disciples of Yunlu Pavilion.

They received instructions from Shi Wushuang to kill Ye no matter what.

If the assassination of the Crown Prince and the Third Prince fails, they will find an opportunity to take action.

And for safety reasons, he was not with the other assassins.

Hiding in other tents.

They will not take action until the assassination is about to take place.

The Thunder Eagle quickly locked onto some soldiers and investigated all their movements in the past few days.

Anyone who acts privately is a target of suspicion.

At night, the assassins gathered and began to plan the assassination.

"We have been lurking here for three days and have not attracted anyone's attention.

And according to our investigation, there aren't many people protecting Ye.

It seems that he was very careless and never expected that someone would assassinate him.

This is a great opportunity to get started.

We can’t delay any longer, let’s take action tonight!”

A leading assassin said.

"You're right, Ye is too bold! Perhaps he's too proud of his victory and thinks no one can handle him.

But it’s better for us.”

"Stop talking nonsense and think about what to do!

Even though Ye doesn't have many guards protecting him, we can't be careless at all.

Act quickly!

"And after assassinating him, immediately hide and try to escape unscathed." said another assassin.

Since the assassins were subordinates of the Crown Prince and the Third Prince respectively, neither of them would submit to the other.

Even if they act together, they are unwilling to obey each other's orders.

Moreover, they knew very well that it would be difficult to escape unscathed after completing this kind of assassination mission.

Or they would be discovered by other soldiers and killed on the spot.

Either they successfully complete the mission or they will be silenced.

Someone has already made a plan to hide under a false name after completing the assassination mission.

I don't want to waste any more time.

"That's right! We can't act recklessly. In the end, we should pretend that an emergency has occurred and report it first.

As long as we can get close to Ye, we can definitely kill him.

Take advantage of the chaos and run away quickly. The military camp is so big that no one will find you if you hide anywhere."

"What urgent military information could there be at this moment? It would be better if the Emperor sent a secret decree. That would surely allow us to approach him without any problems."

"No, that would attract the attention of other soldiers! If they were stopped and questioned along the way, we'd definitely be exposed."

"Neither this nor that is acceptable. What excuse can you give me?"

"I have an idea. Send someone to set the tent on fire! Then we can rush through in the name of protecting you.

Kill him in the chaos!"

"This is a good idea, let's do it!"

The assassins quickly came up with a feasible solution.

Take action now.

Some people set the fire specifically, while others were ready to rush to the camp as soon as the fire started.

But their every move was soon discovered by Lei Ying's men.

When I saw the assassins set the tent on fire, I immediately knew they were going to take action.

Someone hurried to report the news to Lei Ying, and the rest of the people rushed forward and captured all the assassins.

The assassin had just set the fire and before he could even feel happy, he was pinned to the ground.

Then he felt a pain in the back of his neck and was knocked unconscious.

Tie up the assassin.

He also checked whether the assassins had put poison in their mouths to prevent them from committing suicide.

"Now that we've caught the assassin, should we put out the fire?"

"Why put out the fire? Just make sure the entire camp isn't burned down! The boss has already made preparations to lure all these assassins out.

Don't worry! Your Highness is safe."

Then he shouted loudly to the people beside him: "The fire is coming, the fire is coming, come and put out the fire!"

The assassin saw the fire and heard the noise, and immediately rushed towards the camp according to the plan.

As he ran, he shouted loudly: "The barracks is on fire, protect His Highness!"

"There's a fire, protect His Highness!"

When Ye heard the noise outside, he couldn't help laughing.

I knew these assassins had started to take action.

He held a crossbow in his hand and aimed it at the entrance of the tent.

Several soldiers disguised as assassins rushed in without waiting for permission.

"Protect His Highness!"

Before he could finish his words, he was shot in the chest by a crossbow.

He looked at Ye with an incredible look on his face.

I really don't understand why they killed him without saying a word.
