But later... all of these events were triggered by the massacre of Mo Yuncheng.
"Your Highness, someone from the palace has arrived."
At that moment, a guard rushed in to report.
"Let them in." Jun Feiran suppressed his shock and waved his hand, as if he had expected this all along.
Soon, the palace guards appeared in the courtyard.
The guard bowed and said, "Your Highness."
He recounted the story of the assassin in the palace.
"The assassin escaped into the clinic and stuffed his clothes under Mo Zhong's bed, but Doctor Mo Zhong said that he saw the assassin before he was knocked unconscious."

Jun Feiran sighed.
"But what Doctor Mo Zhong saw with his own eyes..."
"Do you mean he'll split himself in two, or that I'll abandon even my brother's safety and choose to protect an outsider?" Jun Feiran's voice deepened, exuding an imposing aura without anger.
