This assassin was the one who was hit on the head with a teapot by Su Zhiruan and had his shoulder blade pierced by Fu Huaichu's sword. He quietly took care of the guards and took advantage of the sound of the wind to approach the carriage. In a position invisible to outsiders, the corner of his mouth curled up into a malicious smile.

"Why are you back? Assassin!" The guard who was guarding the carriage thought it was another guard who came back, but he didn't expect that he saw an assassin dressed in black with blood scabs on his head. He immediately drew his sword from the scabbard and prepared to fight with the assassin. "I didn't expect there would be people who faked their death. Prepare to die!"

The assassin looked at him indifferently, then he pushed the carriage hard. Su Zhiruan wanted to get out of the carriage to see what was going on, but unexpectedly, the assassin was very strong. The carriage was already on a pile of snow, the road was slippery on snowy days, and it was a steep slope. After his heavy push, the carriage kept moving and falling.

"Your Highness! Miss Su!" The guard panicked and rushed forward to grab the carriage, but at this moment, the assassin picked up another long sword from the ground and aimed directly at the guard's vital point. His moves were too dense, and it was impossible for a single guard to resist. The guard tried to risk his life to pull back the carriage.

"The whole family of the dog emperor will go to hell. Hahahaha." The assassin laughed loudly. He took out a crossbow and shot several arrows at random while the guard was not paying attention. The guard was pierced in many places. The assassin continued to laugh, "Fu Huaichu! Don't fall into my hands in your next life! Hahaha! Even if you die, you will have a beauty to bury with you. Your death is worth it!"

The guard watched the carriage slide down rapidly and finally fall off the cliff. His eyes were bloodshot and he didn't care about the serious injuries on his body. He shouted, "Your Highness the Crown Prince - Miss Su -"

But unfortunately, the carriage fell to the bottom of the valley and disappeared.

The next second, the assassin was stabbed by the guards, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, and he fell to the ground, becoming a corpse.

The guard also fell to the ground in the cold snow due to severe injuries and excessive blood loss, and never sounded again.

Before closing his eyes, he saw people from the imperial palace rushing towards him not far away, led by the emperor and empress who looked anxious.

* Zhezhizheye was taken back to the palace by the Emperor and the Empress.

By that time, when the emperor and the empress arrived at the mountain road of Plum Blossom Valley, the carriage had already fallen to the bottom of the valley, and the ground was littered with the remains of assassins and guards. The wind and snow were very strong, and the entire mountain was covered in white snow, but only here was the ground covered with blood.

The two were already old and could not withstand the shock, especially when the imperial guards searched everywhere and discovered that Fu Huaichu, Su Zhiruan, and the two children had all disappeared. The emperor and the empress almost fainted on the snow.

Later, Zhezhizheye recognized their voices and determined that they were indeed his grandparents, so he ran out and hugged them tightly, crying loudly.

"Grandpa and grandma, mom and dad met bad guys who wanted to kill them. It seems mom and dad fell down..." Zhezhi cried breathlessly and hugged the queen tightly. She was only a three and a half year old child. She suddenly encountered such a change. The mother who loved them the most and the dad who just recognized them both fell off the cliff. Her mentality collapsed.

Zhe Ye was a little calmer, but it was obvious that his hands were shaking. He knelt on the ground, staring deeply at the cliff, as if he wanted to see his parents through it.

He didn't cry loudly, but his eyes were red. The emperor felt distressed and dismounted from his horse and picked him up, holding him in his arms.

"Find it for me! Send someone to investigate! Have the Minister of Justice wait in the Imperial Study!" The emperor was furious. He held the leaf in his arms and spoke in a cold and majestic voice, "Today's incident must be thoroughly investigated. Also, send 100,000 soldiers to find the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess! I want a reply within three days!"

At this time, countless guards behind them knew that the two children in the arms of the emperor and the empress might be the children of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Miss Su, that is, the eldest grandson and granddaughter of the emperor.

But they did not dare to show their shock. The most urgent thing was to go down and find the prince and princess.

If His Majesty takes personal action in this matter, he will certainly wipe out the assassins' lairs.

The dynasty is the largest one in the world, and the countless small countries around it dare not offend it. The emperor governs the country strictly, is virtuous, upright, benevolent and talented, and the same is true for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

But being assassinated by an assassin outside the capital and falling off a cliff at the feet of the emperor, with his life or death in doubt, was simply a blatant provocation! Zhezhi and Zheye looked extremely frightened at this time. The emperor and empress did not dare to delay, and asked the imperial guards to find someone. They took the two children away and placed them in the palace.

Zhezhizheye were brought back to the palace by the emperor and empress personally, and from their attitudes, it can be seen that these two children, who look only three or four years old, are definitely not simple.

The palace servants were all shrewd people. They tried to guess the identities of the two children in their hearts and did not dare to be negligent in their actions. Even if they were temporarily placed in the palace, they were treated according to the standards of princesses and princes.

After the Third Prince Fu Huai finally found out about this, he rushed to the palace to inquire, but the Emperor and Empress stuffed two children in front of him, and the three of them stared at each other in amazement.

"These are your brother's children, your nephews and nieces," the queen explained to Fu Huaizhong after she packed her outer clothes, arranged for the palace maids, and prepared to set off.

Fu Huaichu looked at his nephew and niece. The nephew looked almost exactly like his brother, and the niece...why did she look a bit like the girl he fell in love with at first sight? But this thought only lasted for a moment, and he chased after them, "Mother, what happened to my brother? Did he really fall into the valley? I'll go with you. I'm worried about my brother!"

…

Finally, Zhezhizheye came to the imperial study. The Queen and Fu Huaizhong were extremely anxious and took the initiative to look for people. The Emperor was also very anxious, but at this time he needed to summon ministers and dispatch all parties to search for Fu Huaichu and Su Zhiruan. He also needed to send people to destroy the assassin's lair.

Three days passed in a flash. The emperor thought that the two children, Zhezhi and Zheye, would not be able to stay there. After all, they would definitely be annoyed if they had to accompany him in the imperial study to handle official business all day.

But to his surprise, although Zhezhizheye was young, his mind was very stable.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

He tentatively showed Zhe Ye some simple memorials, but found that his answers were far better than those of children of the same age, and even had the style of Fu Huaichu. At the age of three and a half, he had no problem reviewing simple memorials.

Zhezhi was reading a storybook at first, but later she accidentally pointed out something wrong in the account book presented by the Ministry of Rites. The emperor was shocked and realized that the seemingly delicate little Zhezhi actually had an amazing talent in accounting.

This means that these two children are child prodigies, even far surpassing ordinary child prodigies in the general sense.

In addition, she was sweet-mouthed and good at picking branches and leaves, and she was beautiful and pretty, and she was favored by the emperor and empress.

It is no exaggeration to say that they became the darlings of the entire palace.

* At this time, Su Zhiruan and Fu Huaichu, who had disappeared, were sitting in the cave barbecuing.
