All the confidants responded in unison: "Yes, Your Highness!"
At this time, Emperor Jun and Qing Yao, who were outside the palace, heard these conspiracies and their murderous intentions towards the prince became even stronger.
The two men's faces became increasingly gloomy. After the prince's confidants left, the emperor gave a look and the secret guards immediately set out.
The secret guards of the Prince's Mansion noticed something was wrong and when they saw so many people coming, they appeared one after another and fought with the Emperor's secret guards.
Di Jingze heard the fighting outside the study and knew that assassins had come to the Prince's Mansion. He sat on the chair with a gloomy face, staring at the table in front of him with an unpredictable expression.
After waiting for a long time, the sound of fighting outside gradually weakened. The prince then stood up and, under the protection of the secret guards, opened the door of the study. He saw that the ground outside the study was full of corpses.
Seeing that the opponent's secret guards were still there, the prince looked displeased, and then the secret guards around him went out to assist the secret guards of the prince's mansion in dealing with the emperor's secret guards.

Dong Zhu grabbed the clothes on the back of the prince's neck and threw him into the academy. The prince fell to the ground and looked at Dong Zhu and the other three people walking towards him in fear.
But he didn't know that today they were not here to take his life, but to humiliate him. Dong Zhu flipped her palm and some petals appeared at her fingertips.
The winter bamboo then shot out, and ten petals flew towards the prince. The prince was unable to resist, and the tendons of his hands and feet were instantly cut.
The prince let out a scream, which attracted the guards in the courtyard. When the guards arrived, they saw corpses all over the ground and the prince lying on the ground covered in blood, his life or death unknown.
At this time, the housekeeper of the Prince's Mansion hurriedly summoned the imperial physician, but Dongzhu and others had already left the Prince's Mansion with Qingyao.
