Shangshu Mansion.
In the study, Minister Lin was communicating closely with a man in black. Minister Lin was sitting upright on a chair in the lobby, and the man in black was only one step away from him.
Minister Lin: "Today's assassination must be done without leaks. Even if the operation is exposed, we cannot surrender without a fight."
The black-clothed Lin Xiaoqiang promised forcefully, "Yes, I will never reveal my identity even if I die."
Minister Lin was very satisfied with the promise of this loyal subordinate, and immediately ordered: "Go and count the number of people! All the death warriors must be trustworthy and swear to follow you until death."
Lin Xiao: "Yes, they will never be exposed. If exposed, they will explode and die." Before leaving, Minister Lin was still describing in detail every shift change in the palace, every place the guards would pass through, including the time, each team's formation, and the number of people.
Finally, Lin Xiao used his own life as a guarantee that he would not miss any clues, because Lin Shangshu's family and future depended on him, so this action of his could only succeed and not fail, or, if he failed, he had to get out of it safely.
And on the other side of the palace.
The night watchman was beating a bamboo tube and a gong. He struck the bamboo tube twice and the gong once, shouting, "It's dry, be careful of fire and candles. Beware of fire, theft, and stealing!"
In Emperor Li Ye's imperial study, Eunuch Sun was serving him carefully while Emperor Li Ye was busy reading memorials.
Eunuch Sun, who was already sleepy, still insisted on cutting candles and picking wicks for the emperor. The tired Li Yehuang pinched the acupuncture points on his nose, relaxed his eyes, put down the documents in his hand, and asked: "Eunuch Sun, what time is it now?"
Eunuch Sun: "Your Majesty, it is already the second watch, you should rest!"
Li Yehuang: "Well, let's go out for a walk. I am annoyed."
Eunuch Sun: "Yes, Your Majesty."
At this moment, Lin Xiao's people have already started to climb over the eaves and walls above the palace and are rushing towards the harem. Taking advantage of the slack moments when the guards are changing shifts, they are about to reach the cold palace.
Emperor Li Ye was walking towards the cold palace unknowingly. It seemed that the killer flying in the sky was slower than Emperor Li Ye because of the resistance of the guards.
Li Yehuang walked through the long corridor of the palace and finally arrived at the gate of the cold palace. However, he stopped and stood quietly at the door without saying a word. Eunuch Sun: "Your Majesty, shall I go and knock on the door?"
Li Yehuang: "Uh, no, let's just be well and go back!"
By then, the killer had already climbed over the wall and entered a room in the cold palace. Because the room was too dark, the killer was a little disoriented. The people who had already entered the room also bumped into each other because they had no sense of direction.
"Huh? You..."
"My own people..."
"Where are the people?"
"You go right and I go left!"
"Hmm...action..."
One of the assassins walked to the bed. They were very lucky. They found the queen's position. Because people walking around would make footsteps, the queen was awakened. She turned over and said, "Well, Moer, why are you here so early? It's not even daybreak yet." The queen continued to sleep. In her sleep, she was still explaining, "Let me sleep a little longer!"
The killer: "Found it." He immediately raised the knife in his hand high. The other one heard the sound and hurried over.
Just like that, the two people's words and actions completely woke up the queen. The queen opened her eyes and rolled over quickly, while shouting, "There is an assassin, come quickly."
Li Yehuang was outside the gate and was about to turn around and leave when he suddenly heard the Queen's voice, still shouting that there was an assassin. So, he could not ignore it anymore. He turned around quickly and kicked the door open with a hard kick towards the center.
