"Princess, do you mean that the Sixth Prince will fail?"
"Nine times out of ten."
If it succeeds, it will be like red rain from the sky, a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse.
The maid was startled, "Then, what should we do?"
If the Sixth Prince failed, wouldn't their princess...
"Why are you so anxious? Even if he is beheaded, nothing will happen to me. I will still be able to eat and drink in the big house."
She is not the daughter of a courtier, but a princess by marriage. As long as her country is strong, she will not have to worry about her life.
Besides, she didn't have any involvement in this matter.
Nothing could fall on her head.
Why did you choose him in the first place? Maybe he's blind.
"Just don't go to the courtyard over there."
She'd better raise her children well, and do whatever she wants with the love over there.

The prince is solely responsible for the Kasuga Priest Ceremony.
Thousands of people are attending the ceremony, and fish and dragons are mixed together. It is the best time to cause trouble.
Zhao Ziyan looked at the prince who came to the sacrifice site safe and sound, the anxiety in his heart fell to the ground, and the expectation on his face solidified.
"What happened? Did you miss?"
The attendant standing behind him took a half step forward and said, "Back to Your Highness, the prince is extremely cautious and well-defended. The ambusher failed. But when the sacrifice is over, he will definitely take it lightly and be exhausted physically and mentally. Then he will definitely not miss it again!" "
In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, he prepared two groups of people, one before the sacrifice and one after the sacrifice.
If it can be obtained before the sacrifice, the effect will definitely be the best.
If the spring festival is delayed, the father will definitely punish the prince.
As expected, he didn't succeed.
Before coming to offer sacrifices, the emperor will send people to guard and warn.
After this sacrifice.
This is the best time to succeed.
Although he had expected it, Zhao Ziyan still couldn't help but feel disappointed.
One morning passed, and the sacrifice finally ended.
Zhao Ziyi sat on the sedan and walked back.
Suddenly, a group of men in black came out and started fighting without saying a word.
The battle was chaotic, and the two groups were fighting inseparably.
At this time, a man in black broke through the encirclement and stabbed into the sedan with a knife.
"Pfft——"
Hit something.
The silver-white blade was pulled out, and the tip was stained with bright red.
Saw blood.
Before the man could be happy, he was stabbed with a knife.
"Your Highness! Your Highness, are you okay?" The guard holding a knife blocked the sedan and asked breathlessly.
A trembling and forbearing voice came from the sedan.
"fine."
After several fights, Zhao Ziyi's men narrowly defeated the assassins. All the assassins died and some were caught.
On the other side, Zhao Ziyan, who received the news of the failed assassination, threw many porcelain bottles angrily.
The servant who came to report knelt outside and waited until Zhao Ziyan had finished throwing and calmed down before he dared to continue talking.
"Your Highness, please calm down. Those assassins' swords are all coated with poison. According to reports from spies, the prince was stabbed with a sword."
"This time, even if he doesn't die, he will lose most of his life."
"How can a defective product with only half a life left be compared to you."
Zhao Ziyan calmed down a little and sat down on the carved wooden chair with a gloomy expression.
"Is the news true? Zhao Ziyi was indeed stabbed?"
None of the assassins sent have escaped. We still need to find someone to find out what the situation is.
What a coward!
Even this can't kill Zhao Ziyi.
"It's absolutely true, Your Highness! The imperial doctors have already arrived at the Prince's Mansion!" The servant knelt on the ground, not daring to raise his head and reply for fear of offending the irritable Sixth Prince again.
"Keep an eye on me. If there is any news over there, report it immediately!"
Zhao Ziyan closed his eyes tightly, the sadness on his face still lingering.
I just hope that I can poison Zhao Ziyi to death!
It wasn't until dawn the next day that another message came from the servants, saying that the prince was out of danger.
It's just that the remaining poison has not been eliminated and needs to be cultivated in the house.
Zhao Ziyan became very angry again.
His prince and brother are still tough!
I don’t know how much of the remaining poison is still there.
Anyway, Zhao Ziyi did not go to court anymore.
There was an air of malaise in the entire court, and even the emperor looked gloomy.
The prince he personally chose was assassinated by gangsters while walking on the road openly and almost died.
He immediately ordered someone to investigate the matter thoroughly.
Ten days have passed, half a month has passed, and a month has passed, and the assassin has still not been found.
It's not that Zhao Ziyan is really that rigorous in his work, but that the person responsible for the investigation is a disciple of Prime Minister Mo.
When investigating the case, it was naturally secretive and the progress was slow.
Just when Zhao Ziyan thought that this matter would be settled with a casual scapegoat.
The emperor was furious and threw the person responsible for investigating the case into prison.
For this matter, Prime Minister Mo was more or less implicated.
He clearly felt that the emperor was suspicious of him and began to be wary of him.
He was anxious.
As soon as he was anxious, he went to consult with the Sixth Prince privately.
Zhao Ziyan is not having an easy time either. The new investigators belong to the middle forces.
I believe he will be traced within ten days.
It was a quiet night and there was no sound everywhere.
Both Zhao Ziyan and Prime Minister Mo felt that this matter could not be delayed any longer.
Only by killing the person who poses the greatest threat to them can all worries be relieved.
Both of them have come this far and there is no turning back.
If this matter is found out, Zhao Ziyan will probably be sent to a remote and barren place, and Prime Minister Mo will never be reused again.
He is still young, and he still has great plans to accomplish.
How could it stop here?
Once the decision is made, the matter is settled!
The emperor is gone and the prince can't even leave the palace. Isn't the world at his fingertips?
-
At this moment, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was unable to go out, was chatting in Prince Rui's Mansion.
"Staying in the house all day is suffocating me."
After finally coming out, Zhao Ziyi's face was full of happiness. After holding it in the house for so long, he felt like mushrooms were growing all over his body.
I don't know how Gu Shaoxuan managed to stay in the courtyard without sneaking out.
With this in mind, he asked, "Don't you feel bored?"
Gu Shaoxuan glanced outside the courtyard. He didn't know what he thought of, and the corners of his mouth raised.
"not boring."
How could it be boring?
Pretending to be sick is rewarded.
It's true, if the prince doesn't stay at home, why did he come to him?
Disturb his good deeds.
Zhao Ziyi's mouth twitched.
Is this serious?
But the person opposite was still smiling, which really didn't look like he was lying.
He put his arms on the table, tilted his upper body, and moved slightly closer.
"If you have any good ways to pass the time, please share it with me!"
The smile on Gu Shaoxuan's face instantly disappeared. The hand pouring tea shook and he almost fell on the table.
He glanced at Zhao Ziyi with disgust, wanting to kick this uninvited guy out, and uttered two words in a cold voice.
"dream!"
Zhao Ziyi: "?"
Isn't it just sharing some ways to pass the time?
Do you need to be so stingy?
