The two of them were really just there to toast Liu Wei!
Then these two people are not people with ill intentions.
Liu Wei and the Jinyiwei guards who were lying in ambush were taken aback.
Meanwhile, the two groups of people outside the tent were also cursing under their breath.
I initially thought these two were assassins, but it turns out they were just offering a toast.
This is completely baffling!
Just then, a soft cough came from next to Liu Wei.
He turned around and saw that Diao Chan's face was pale and her expression was uncertain. He immediately asked with concern, "Chan'er, what's wrong?"
"I...I suddenly feel a little tired and want to go back to rest as soon as possible," Diao Chan said hesitantly.
It's normal for pregnant women to feel sleepy.
Liu Wei didn't think much of it: "Xiao Guizi, you and Fei'er escort Madam back to rest first!"
"Please forgive me, Your Highness, I have spoiled your enjoyment."
Diao Chan looked apologetic and stood up to apologize.
Liu Yifei immediately stood up obediently and lifted Diao Chan's arm.
"It's alright, it's alright!"
Liu Wei approached the two of them, smiling and whispering to comfort them, "Get some rest early. If anything big happens tonight, don't panic, just ignore it!"
"A huge commotion!"
Diao Chan was taken aback, and deliberately asked tentatively, "Is it...is it Your Highness and Fei'er?"
"Didn't you hear that noise all night?"
Liu Wei said in a low voice, "They're just a couple of petty thieves, Chan'er doesn't need to worry."
"One or two petty thieves?"
Diao Chan became even more uneasy and murmured, "Then...then Your Highness, please be careful."
Taking advantage of his drunkenness, Liu Wei squeezed her slender waist and then bounced her two large breasts:
Go!
After the two women gracefully departed, the atmosphere of the banquet became even more intense.
Liu Wei seemed to have drunk quite a bit, looking very drunk.
Cai Yong, Chen Ji, Wei Ji, and others who were accompanying them also had flushed faces from drinking.
Cui Hao looked out of the tent, then, feigning accident, knocked over his wine cup and deliberately shouted:
"Oh dear, Your Highness's wine is too strong for me!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than four or five people outside the tent, carrying wine, came over in response.
Who are you? What is your position in the mission?
Liu Wei had already seen everything, but asked in a drunken haze.
“Your Highness, he is from the Cui family of Hedong. He wants to do horse business with you,” Cai Yong quickly introduced.
"Oh! Very well! I have captured over ten thousand warhorses, more than the pastures can hold them all. I really need to find a way to sell some of them for money!"
Liu Wei looked extremely happy.
Seeing that his opportunity had arrived, Cui Hao gestured to the people outside the tent to come in:
“They are all experts in judging horses and have been trading horses for many years.”
"Your Highness has come to the right person to sell your horse."
The four or five people said in unison, "We would like to offer a toast to Your Highness!"
Liu Wei said calmly, "Then come in!"
At this moment, Empress Dowager Dong's men outside the tent were stunned to see that another group had gotten there first.
Who are these people?
As the group of assassins looked at each other in bewilderment, their leader said in a deep voice, "Drink your wine, and calm down."
With Liu Wei's permission, Cui Hao's men entered the tent together and came to stand less than half a zhang away from Liu Wei.
"We await Your Highness's request..."
The four men raised their glasses and shouted in unison.
No sooner had he finished speaking than the four men suddenly threw the wine in their cups at Liu Wei, and pulled out short blades from their sleeves, stabbing him.
Cui Hao leaped high from his seat, wielding an iron hammer, and lunged at Liu Wei.
They were all members of the mission, and no one searched their personal weapons.
It's not surprising that they suddenly pulled out weapons.
Chen Ji was immediately shocked.
Cai Yong's expression changed drastically; Cui Hao was the one he had recommended to Liu Wei!
But now that he's become an assassin, he's also implicated.
Wei Kai, who had been promoted by Liu Wei, was stunned for a moment when he saw the sudden change, and then rushed over to try to block Liu Wei.
Unfortunately, Wei Kai was too late; Cui Hao and his group of five had already approached Liu Wei.
The five seemed to have planned this beforehand, surrounding Liu Wei from all three directions—top, middle, and bottom—leaving no blind spots.
Liu Wei seemed to have been caught off guard by the sudden assassination attempt, frozen in place, motionless.
It was clear that Liu Wei was about to be attacked by the five men and die a violent death.
Swish swish swish!
A flash of light appeared, and a ghostly figure materialized.
However, it was Shen Lian who had always disguised himself as a servant pouring wine.
The five people not only failed to get close to Liu Wei, but were instead affected by the ripples of Shen Lian's sword light.
Ahhh!
Several screams rang out, and five people, all wounded, were seen.
Cui Hao's wrist was cut and bleeding profusely; he was terrified.
The four men who attacked with him were notorious wandering knights who had killed countless people.
With him joining the attack, it's like having ten fingers squeezing a screw – a sure thing.
Unexpectedly, Liu Wei had a hidden expert by his side who not only saved Liu Wei but also injured all five of them just as they were about to succeed.
This person's martial arts skills far surpass theirs.
The speed at which the knife was drawn was beyond comprehension.
Having missed his first attack, Cui Hao had no way out and roared, "Attack!"
The five launched another attack.
At the same time, the bodyguards of Empress Dowager Dong outside the tent, seeing this situation, had already stood up one after another.
"I didn't expect this prince to have such skilled men by his side. Fortunately, they've kept them occupied. Now is the time for us to make our move!"
The leader shouted, "Attack!"
Immediately, more than forty of the fifty palace guards stood up, drew their weapons simultaneously, and charged in, roaring:
