Chapter 228 Assassination Attack in the Hunting Grounds



Xie Xin also mounted his horse and followed Emperor Tianqi at a distance.

Sun Jiasheng followed behind with a team of guards.

Emperor Tianqi rode his horse at a leisurely pace, slowly entering the forest.

When the mood strikes, he will also draw his bow and arrow to hunt small prey himself.

Suddenly, a long arrow flew out and headed straight for Emperor Tianqi.

Xie Xin kept a close eye on his surroundings and immediately spotted the arrow hurtling through the air.

She leaped into the air and slashed the long arrow down with her sword.

Just then, a group of men in black rushed out.

Xie Xin immediately grabbed the reins of Emperor Tianqi's horse and helped him dismount.

When Sun Jiasheng arrived with his men, the Emperor Tianqi was handed over to him.

While supporting Emperor Tianqi, Sun Jiasheng called on the guards to protect him.

Xie Xin then drew his longsword and charged out.

There are always patrols in the hunting grounds, so when they heard the fighting, the patrolmen naturally rushed over.

That group of men in black were highly skilled in martial arts; every move they made was deadly.

However, in the end, two fists can't fight four hands. After a fierce battle, some of the men in black died and others fled.

When Yun Chuwei arrived, she saw only devastation and countless dead and injured.

Under the escort of Yun Chuwei and Xie Xin, Emperor Tianqi quickly returned to his main tent.

Emperor Tianqi's face was gloomy, clearly indicating his anger.

He looked at Xie Xin, his face darkening slightly: "Give me an explanation within a day! Otherwise, I will hold you responsible!"

Xie Xin immediately agreed, bowed, and left the main tent.

Emperor Tianqi then glanced at Yun Chuwei, pondered for a moment, and then seemed to sigh, saying, "You should go and help her too!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Yun Chuwei stepped out of the main tent and saw Sun Jiasheng leading the imperial physicians hurriedly into the main tent.

The main tent was already surrounded by layers of guards.

Yun Chuwei approached Xie Xin and asked, "What's going on?"

"Those men in black seem to be the ones who rescued the former crown prince!"

Yun Chuwei was somewhat surprised.

The royal hunting grounds are heavily guarded; under normal circumstances, there might be a slight chance of getting in.

After the hunt began, Xie Xin took over the guards here several days in advance, making the entire hunting ground as solid as an iron barrel, so that no assassin could possibly get in.

"I have strengthened the defenses; no one can escape. At the same time, I have deployed a group of soldiers to search the hunting grounds. I believe we will get an answer soon!" Xie Xin said.
