Chapter 319 Li Changsheng secretly meets with the empress late at night!
After hearing what Li Changsheng said, everyone's eyes immediately fell on Prince Zhao Yingguang.
Ying Guang stroked his beard and laughed heartily.
"It seems that you, Yanqing, are still extremely smart. Nothing can be hidden from you!"
Hearing King Zhao's words, everyone present, including Li Changsheng, was shocked.
Could it be that King Zhao really has a way to assassinate the little emperor in the palace?
In Li Changsheng's impression, Empress Ying Yue stayed in Changle Palace all year round.
Moreover, she is a heavenly-level grandmaster.
Trying to assassinate her in the palace would be harder than climbing to heaven.
Ying Jie was also in disbelief and asked, "Father, do you really have a way to go to the palace and assassinate the little emperor?"
King Zhao pretended to be profound and said, "There is indeed a way, but I can't guarantee 100% success!"
Ying Jie pressed the issue, "Father, what are the chances of success?"
King Zhao pondered for a moment, then spread out his hand and said, "Fifty percent!"
Zhao Kun took over and said, "50% chance, it's worth a try!"
King Zhao nodded in agreement: "Yes, I think so too!"
"Ying Jie, you will be fully responsible for the period when I am away from the camp!"
"Zhao Kun, assist Ying Jie and continue the fierce attack on Luodu City!"
"Yan Qing, you will follow me and sneak into Luodu secretly to assassinate the little emperor!"
Upon hearing King Zhao's arrangement, everyone present was shocked.
"Father, you are putting yourself in danger. If anything happens..."
Before Ying Jie could finish his words, he was met with the murderous eyes of King Zhao.
This frightened him, and he realized that what he had just said was a bit unlucky, so he quickly swallowed it all back.
King Zhao flicked his sleeves and, in a voice of great authority, ordered, "It is settled now. All of you, hurry and prepare!"
Everyone present looked at each other, and no one dared to step forward to persuade them. They all clasped their fists and bowed.
"promise!"
……
That night, King Yingguang of Zhao brought with him Zen Master Kongxiang, Li Changsheng, and his trusted generals including Tietou, Tiechou, and Zhao Si.
After walking for a while, Li Changsheng keenly discovered that this seemed to be the direction to the imperial tomb.
Could it be that King Zhao also knew that there was a secret tunnel in the imperial mausoleum that led directly to the imperial palace?
With this in mind, in order to verify his judgment, Li Changsheng asked calmly, "Your Highness, where are we going?"
King Zhao had a blank expression on his face and said calmly, "You'll know when we get there!"
Li Changsheng pretended to be nonchalant and observed the surrounding terrain.
This is indeed the road leading to the imperial tomb!
It seems that we have to inform the Empress quickly.
Otherwise, the house would have been stolen by King Zhao.
Just as Li Changsheng was lost in thought, King Zhao suddenly stopped and asked, "Tietou, when will Zhao Wuji and the others arrive?"
Tietou replied, "Your Highness, according to the previously agreed time, it should be midnight!"
King Zhao looked up at the night sky and said, "It's still two hours until midnight!"
"You all wait here first. I'm going to see an old friend first!"
After King Zhao finished speaking, he stood up and left.
Zen Master Kongxiang followed immediately.
Seeing this, Li Changsheng also wanted to follow.
However, he was stopped by Tiechou and Tietou.
"Master Yan, the prince asked us to wait here!"
Yan Qing smiled awkwardly and said, "People have three urgent matters. I'll go take care of them!"
When Tietou heard this from [Yan Qing], and also said that people have three urgent needs, he pointed somewhere else impatiently.
"Go over there and sort it out!"
Li Changsheng responded casually and went in the direction of Tietou's finger.
After his figure disappeared from the sight of Tietou and others, he took a shortcut and followed quietly in the direction where King Zhao Yingguang left.
When he saw Prince Zhao and Zen Master Kongxiang come to the secret entrance of the imperial mausoleum, he understood everything.
The King of Zhao just said that he wanted to go see an old friend first.
Who is this old friend?
Thinking of this, a sudden flash of inspiration came to Li Changsheng's mind.
The Fragrant Concubine Yu Qiangwei in the cold palace!
After Prince Zhao and Zen Master Kongxiang entered the imperial mausoleum, Li Changsheng followed closely behind.
He held his breath as much as possible, using the darkness as his protective color, and followed carefully.
Halfway through the journey, Zen Master Kongxiang suddenly stopped and looked back.
Li Changsheng was shocked and quickly hid behind a huge rock, holding his breath.
King Zhao asked warily, "Master, what's wrong?"
Before Zen Master Kongxiang could answer, he suddenly saw several huge rats scurrying past.
Upon seeing this, King Zhao suddenly raised his arm and slapped out.
Those gray-haired mice were all killed in an instant by the violent palm force, their bellies turned over, and they kept twitching and kicking their legs.
Upon seeing this, Zen Master Kongxiang clasped his hands together and silently chanted, "Amitabha!"
King Zhao was already accustomed to this and said, "Master, let's go! Don't waste time here!"
Zen Master Kongxiang nodded, but his eyes inadvertently swept across the huge rock where Li Changsheng was hiding.
Immediately, he followed behind Prince Zhao Yingguang silently.
After they walked away, Li Changsheng's heart, which had been hanging in his throat, finally settled back into his stomach, and he gasped for breath.
He kept patting his chest to calm his frightened heart.
"That was a close call just now, a close call!"
"If this is discovered by King Zhao and his men, I'm afraid this imperial mausoleum will be my burial place."
"Damn Empress, I'm risking my life for you!"
……
After muttering to himself for a while, Li Changsheng no longer followed Prince Zhao Yingguang and Zen Master Kongxiang.
Instead, he took a shortcut and left the imperial mausoleum first.
Without any hesitation, he went straight to the empress's bedroom, Changle Palace.
……
Although there is fighting and death outside, here at the Empress Ying Yue, life is still peaceful.
She was still the same as before, only doing one thing: practicing.
As for all matters, big or small, in the court, they were all left to Qingying to handle.
Qingying really couldn't make up her mind, so she came to ask her.
Today, she was still sitting cross-legged and practicing as usual.
But for some reason, she has always been as calm as an old monk in meditation.
This time, I felt inexplicably upset and my eyelids couldn't stop twitching.
Could it be that something happened recently?
Just as Ying Yue was thinking about something, his ears suddenly moved.
"Who?"
"Your Majesty, it's me!"
The person who appeared was Li Changsheng.
This made Ying Yue suddenly startled.
"Li Changsheng? Didn't you go to King Zhao's place? Why are you in the palace?"
"Could it be that the King of Zhao has already conquered Luodu and entered the imperial palace?"
