"Your Highness, we've found out." Crown Prince Xu Shihuai's personal guards walked in from outside the palace and said respectfully, "The five assassins who just died were from the Yinwu Guard."
"Yinwu Guard?" Xu Shihuai frowned.
Wanwan pricked up her ears like a curious baby: [Silver Guard? What are Silver Guard? They sound familiar.]
Xu Shihuai's eyes darkened and he said, "Well, I understand. You can leave first."
"Yes." The guards retreated upon hearing that.
Xiao Moqing asked in confusion, "Who are these Yinwu Guards?"
Xu Shihuai said: "Yinwu Guard is Jingle's personal guard."
[Princess Jingle? ]
Wanwan suddenly remembered, "Isn't Princess Jingle the mistress of the current male protagonist, Shen Junze? She's the one who sent Shen Junze to find the elixir."
[Speaking of Princess Jingle in the original story, she is also a ruthless character.]
[When I first read the novel, I thought she would be one of the women in the male protagonist's harem, but I didn't expect her to be such a heroine. At first, under the male protagonist's disguise, she was indeed moved and gradually fell in love with him. However, after learning that it was the male protagonist who conspired with the fake prince Xu Jinglin to kill the crown prince, she became murderous towards the male protagonist Shen Junze.]
[While pretending to be obedient and disguising herself as a love-brained woman, she secretly plots revenge. Although she is eventually alerted by the male protagonist and stabbed to death, she is one of the few female characters in the novel who is neither humble nor arrogant.]
The Tyrant and Xiao Moqing, who heard Wanwan's inner thoughts, were both feeling: "..."
The two of them now knew that the male protagonist Shen Junze was a typical example of someone who would survive if he obeyed them and perish if he disobeyed them.
There are also stories about Princess Jingle circulating among the people.
Princess Jingle, the younger sister of Crown Prince Xu Shihuai, is also the only princess of Western Chu.
Because she was the only woman in the royal family, she had been favored by the Emperor of Western Chu since she was a child.
Relying on the favor of the Emperor of Western Chu, she was arrogant and domineering. Not only did she have many male concubines in her harem, but she even declared that she wanted to become an empress in the future when she reached the age of 15.
On the surface, she and the prince treated each other with respect, like brothers and sisters, but in fact, they were fighting openly and secretly to kill the prince.
But what they didn't expect was that Princess Jingle and the prince were fighting openly and secretly for power, but they didn't expect that after the prince was murdered, she still wanted to avenge him.
Wanwan: [Given the relationship between Princess Jingle and the Crown Prince, it wouldn't be surprising if the assassin was sent by Princess Jingle.]
But the strange thing is that the assassin she sent didn't assassinate the crown prince, but instead assassinated our awesome team, Jennyma. Also, in the original story, Princess Jingle wasn't a naive person. She sent her own personal guards to the East Palace to assassinate him. Isn't this undoubtedly telling everyone that she sent those people?
[More importantly, those five assassins were extremely abnormal]
The Tyrant: "Brother Huai, what do you think?"
Crown Prince Xu Shihuai shook his head, "Jingle is not a reckless person."
In other words, it is true that these five assassins are her Yinwu Guards, but they were not ordered by her, not to mention that these five Yinwu Guards are very strange.
Xu Shihuai: "He's Xu Hui's man. He must have heard that I brought you back to the palace, so he came here to kill someone with a borrowed knife."

Another part of the palace
Chenghuan Hall
Concubine Zhen was half lying on the couch, eating the grapes that the palace maid had peeled and put into her mouth. Her beautiful fox eyes were fixed on the five puppets with severed heads on the table on the side.
Grapes were her favorite food, but for some reason today, she felt they were a bit bland.
"Put it down. I don't want to eat anymore." Concubine Zhen waved her hand in a sickly manner.
As the maid left with the grapes, another maid hurried in.
After seeing the palace maid, Concubine Zhen, who had originally looked sick, immediately became cheerful and asked excitedly, "How is it? Has he returned to the palace?"
The palace maid looked apprehensive upon hearing this and shook her head, "To answer your Majesty, Master Shen has not returned to the palace yet."
Upon hearing this, the smile on Concubine Zhen's face immediately disappeared.
The palace maid continued, "I just went to Jingle Palace to inquire and heard that all the people who left the palace with Master Shen have returned, except Master Shen. Everyone who went with him said that Master Shen ran away."
"Run away?"
After hearing what the palace maid said, Concubine Zhen's voice immediately rose several degrees, "How could he run away? There is absolutely no way he can run away."
"Princess Jingle also meant this. She suspected that the group of people who were traveling with him had attacked Master Shen. She has already thrown them into the Sky Prison and tortured them to extract a confession! Your Majesty, Master Shen wouldn't really..."
As the palace maid spoke, she also made a gesture of wiping her neck.
Concubine Zhen immediately scolded: "Absolutely impossible!"
That person told her that Shen Junze was the future emperor who would unify the world, so how could he die?
Concubine Zhen: "All of you get out!"
"yes."
Seeing that Concubine Zhen looked unhappy, the palace maids present did not dare to stay. They were afraid of getting into trouble, so they all retreated.
Soon, Concubine Zhen was the only one left in the huge bedroom.
Concubine Zhen thought for a moment, then turned to the huge bedroom and said, "Are you there?"
Concubine Zhen was originally named Azhen. She was a fox that had cultivated for a hundred years and finally transformed into a human form.
Finally, the little fox transformed into a human form and went to the human world. However, people were treacherous. When her life was in danger, a voice in her heart told her a way to make her stronger.
Ah Zhen didn't know who the voice in her heart was, she only knew that it seemed very powerful and could predict everything.
He told her that if she wanted to become stronger, absorbing the dragon energy of those emperors was the best way.
So Azhen listened to the man and came to Western Chu, where she found the future emperor Shen Junze. Under Shen Junze's planning, she was presented to the Emperor of Western Chu by the fourth prince Xu Hui.
With her unparalleled beauty, the Emperor of Western Chu fell in love with her at first sight. In just three months, she had become the most favored concubine in the harem.
However, her ambition is naturally not to be just a favored concubine who brings disaster to the country and the people, but to become the concubine of a real emperor in the future.
The Emperor of Western Chu is over fifty years old and he won't live long at all, so as the woman of the future emperor, she naturally has to help the real emperor ascend the throne, and that is her Shen Lang.
Shen Lang told her about his plan, which was to use the Xu Hui and his son to get rid of the crown prince and Emperor Yong, and support the fake prince Xu Jinglin to ascend the throne.
Xu Jinglin is just a waste. He won't be able to be emperor for long.
Concubine Zhen looked at the five headless puppets on the table. If this father and son were not useful to Chen Lang, she would not have anything to do with them.
He would not even try to find out the truth about the Pearl Squad for them.
Seeing that the voice in her heart did not sound, Concubine Zhen no longer persisted.
Shen Langji is a lucky person and will be fine.
Since Shen Lang is not here, she will come to help Shen Lang and help him get rid of the prince.
When he returns and finds that the crown prince has been eliminated, he will certainly look at her with new eyes.
Oh, and that woman Jingle, she had evil intentions towards her husband Shen, she deserves to be killed!
