Under the cover of night, many figures were rushing to the area around the toilet in the palace.

This kind of environment is so lively for the first time.

"Isn't this Ma Shuoliang, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Lord Ma?"

"And that one is his personal bodyguard!"

"How could he die here? What on earth happened just now?!"

Looking at the two bodies with tragic and strange deaths, everyone was suddenly shocked and horrified.

"Damn it! An assassin actually sneaked into our palace!"

Wang Taiwei was shocked and angry. He immediately looked at his subordinates and said sternly, "Seal off the mansion immediately. We must find the assassin no matter what!"

"yes!"

Instantly, the servants and guards of the palace all took action fully armed.

"Once Ma Shuoliang dies, I'm afraid it will have a significant impact on the implementation of our plan."

In the crowd, Yan Fengjun frowned and thought to himself, "No, I must inform my eldest brother as soon as possible."

With a change of mind, Yan Fengjun immediately turned around and left.

Although Yan Peng was trying to win over Lin Hao as his subordinate at this time, there might be some obstacles if he went there rashly.

But this incident was of great importance, so he couldn't care less.

…

At this time, in the study room in the inner courtyard of the palace.

Lin Hao obtained information through the shared vision of Kung Fu Fly and learned that they had successfully killed their prey.

At the moment, he was in a good mood.

"Lin Hao, although you have excellent talent in martial arts, you are still a little lacking in chess."

The eldest prince Yan Peng shook his head and smiled.

The white chess pieces in his hand continued to invade the territory on the chessboard, forcing Lin Hao's black chess pieces into a dead corner step by step.

"Oh? Really?"

Lin Hao raised his eyebrows slightly.

Since there was no need to delay any further, Lin Hao placed the chess piece in his hand and completely reversed the chess game that had already been set up.

All of a sudden, the situation was turned from defeat to victory.

Seeing this, Yan Peng frowned slightly, and the smile on his face was completely restrained at this moment, with a hint of gloom in his eyes.

He originally thought that Lin Hao was planning to use this chess game to submit to him in disguise.

Unexpectedly, in the end, I was slapped in the face by him.

As the eldest prince, he lost a game of chess to a blind man. If this matter were to get out, he would surely be laughed at.

It seems that even if this boy's intention is not stated explicitly, it is already very obvious.

Thinking of this, the coldness in Yan Peng's eyes became more intense.

Since it can't be used by me, then...

"Brother, something urgent happened!"

At this moment, Yan Fengjun suddenly pushed the door open and said with a heavy face.

However, when he saw Lin Hao and Yan Peng playing chess, and the game in which they turned defeat into victory, he suddenly felt something strange in his eyes.

"Second brother, why are you so impatient?"

Yan Peng stood up suddenly. He was already in a bad mood and his tone was slightly reprimanding.

"Just now, Ma Shuoliang, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was assassinated in the toilet of the mansion, including his personal guards."

Yan Fengjun didn't think much about it and replied quickly.

"What?!"

Hearing this, Yan Peng's face changed.

"Who is so bold as to cause trouble at this prince's banquet? Have you found the assassin?!"

As he spoke, his eyes became cruel and furious.

"When we arrived, Ma Shuoliang and the other two were already dead, and there was no trace of the killer."

Yan Fengjun shook his head, feeling quite shocked and puzzled about what happened tonight.

Hearing this, Yan Peng frowned and said in a deep voice: "Seal off the entire mansion immediately. No matter who they are, any suspicious person must not be let go!"

"Brother, please rest assured. After the incident, I had Commander Wang seal off the mansion and investigate everyone present."

Yan Fengjun nodded.

Immediately, he turned his gaze to Lin Hao in the room and said, "As for Lin Hao, is he playing chess with you here tonight?"

Hearing Yan Fengjun's question, Yan Peng looked at Lin Hao deeply and said coldly: "Well, he doesn't need to be investigated."

"Thank you both princes for your trust."

Lin Hao also stood up at this time, with a polite attitude, but neither humble nor arrogant.

Moreover, he had been playing chess with Yan Peng here and had never left the study.

According to common sense, if Ma Shuoliang was assassinated, he could be said to be the least likely suspect.

"This sword is very handy. If Your Highness is willing to part with it, I am willing to buy it with money."

Lin Hao picked up the sword that he had used to carve the chessboard and said with a smile.

After a short period of getting along, Lin Hao already had a general understanding of the eldest prince's temperament.

If he leaves without any greed this time, he will definitely be suspected by others.

Therefore, when Lin Hao took the sword away, he made it impossible for the other party to figure out his true thoughts.

As expected.

Just as Lin Hao expected, Yan Peng's originally gloomy expression suddenly eased a lot.

"We are all friends, if you like it, take it and use it. Talking about money means you are looking down on this prince."

Yan Peng laughed deeply and said generously.

"Since Your Highness is so forthright, I will gladly accept it."

Lin Hao nodded and smiled faintly, then directly put the black iron sword into the storage ring.

Seeing this, Yan Fengjun next to him was secretly delighted.

If Lin Hao could be won over, the loss of Ma Shuoliang tonight would be nothing.

Because Lin Hao's value of use is much greater than that of that fat pig.

"After what happened tonight's banquet, I don't think we can continue. I remembered that I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now."

Lin Hao said calmly.

As the mastermind of the assassination, he was naturally eager to escape at this moment.

Staying a few more points here will increase the danger.

After all, Yan Peng's mysterious guard is hiding in some dark corner.

If that guy notices anything, it will undoubtedly be difficult to escape.

So, it’s better to leave first!

"Okay, second brother, please see the guest off and don't let the servants in the mansion disturb Lin Hao."

After Yan Peng pondered for a moment, he turned his gaze to Yan Fengjun and gave special instructions.

Obviously, he had no interest in continuing to hold the banquet at this moment.

"I know."

Facing Yan Peng's request, Yan Fengjun almost obeyed his orders and did not feel the slightest bit dissatisfied because he, the second prince, had to personally see the guest off.

Just like that, with Yan Fengjun seeing him off, Lin Hao was not checked by the palace guards and could be said to have left the palace unhindered.

As Lin Hao left, a black figure, like a ghost, suddenly appeared behind Yan Peng.

"Hantian, what do you think?"

Yan Peng said gloomily, "His eyes."

The black shadow shook his head and replied in a slightly hoarse voice: "I can't be sure! The Samsara Eye is one in a million, and those who have awakened will more or less exude aura."

"But I didn't feel any fluctuations from that guy just now."

Hearing this, Yan Peng frowned slightly, "So what you mean is that he doesn't have the Samsara Eye, but is just a pure blind man?"

The shadow said indifferently: "That may not be the case. There is another possibility, that is, he has not yet awakened the Samsara Eye."

"Oh? I see..."

Yan Peng muttered to himself, then fell silent as if thinking about something, with an amusing expression slowly appearing on his face.
