Five Years Later, She Bombarded the Palace with a Miniature Version of the Regent-Chapter 460 - : Assassins

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

‘That’s right. The King of Youshan isn’t here.’

‘Why isn’t he here on such an important occasion?’

Everyone could not help but discuss among themselves.

Chu Changlin glanced at Yu Yunxi before she said provocatively in a low voice,

“Tell me, what do you think will happen if I tell my brother that the Prince Regent of Tianxia is the King of Youshan?”

Yu Yunxi frowned slightly. She was indeed a little worried. She did not know why Feng Yili was not here. She looked around and saw that Qian Qing was still waiting outside.

Chu Changlin said again, sounding very arrogant, “Why don’t you beg me? I’ll consider keeping this a secret.”

‘Imperial Brother is already wary of the King of Youshan. If he finds out that the other party is also the Prince Regent of Tianxia… Ha, once this secret is exposed, not only Imperial Brother, but the people of Xichu won’t be able to accept it either…’

Chu Changlin was confident that Yu Yunxi would beg her. She continued to say, “Why? Are you still holding on to your pride? At least, your mother was more flexible than you. After it was exposed that she tried to poison your grandfather, she kneeled for a long time, begging for this matter to not implicate the King of Zhenbei’s Residence. Ha, she was really infatuated.”

Chu Changlin’s voice grew resentful when she spoke about this matter. In the end, she said darkly, “You’re the Princess Regent. Can you bear to see Feng Yili in danger?”

At this time, Meng Xia could no longer hold it in. She said angrily in a low voice, “Princess Changlin, don’t you dare threaten the Eldest Princess.”

“A lowly servant like you is not qualified to talk to me,” Chu Changlin said as she glared at Meng Xia viciously. Then, she said to the maidservant next to her, “Shan Fu, teach her a lesson.”

“Yes.”

Shan Fu nodded before she raised her hand to slap Meng Xia.

However, just as the slap was about to land on Meng Xia’s face, Shan Fu suddenly drew a dagger and stabbed it at Yu Yunxi. Her speed was extremely fast.

In just a moment, people were screaming.

“Assassin! There’s an assassin! Quick! Protect the Eldest Princess!”

“Protect His Majesty!”

Chaos descended in the hall immediately.

However, Yu Yunxi was very calm. After all, Shan Fu’s speed was nothing to her. She easily dodged the attack.

Shan Fu attacked again.

Meanwhile, Chu Zai said gloomily to the imperial guards, “Hurry up and protect the Eldest Princess!”

‘How dare they assassinate someone during the state banquet! Isn’t this tantamount to slapping my face as the Emperor?’

Although Chu Zai wanted Yu Yunxi to die, if Yu Yunxi died during the state banquet, he, as the Emperor of Xichu, would become the laughingstock of various countries. As such, he could only order people to save Yu Yunxi.

Most of the imperial guards rushed toward Yu Yunxi to save her. However, just as they ran over, many eunuchs and palace maids suddenly drew their weapons and rushed toward Chu Zai.

“Protect the Emperor! Protect the Emperor!”

‘Could it be that the assassins only used the Eldest Princess as a distraction?

Perhaps their true target is the Emperor!’

The scene became even more chaotic, and the screams grew louder.

Empress Qin glanced at Chu Yuefu and asked, “Yuefu, why aren’t you protecting your father?”

Chu Yuefu reacted quickly. He snatched the sword from one of the imperial guards and flew toward Chu Zai.

Upon seeing this, Consort Mu said urgently, “Yuemu, hurry up and take action. Don’t lose the initiative!” novelbuddy. com

Chu Zhihe nodded in agreement. “That’s right, Seventh Imperial Brother. You can’t let the Crown Prince take all the credit!”

Even Chu Zhihe could tell that the assassins’ martial arts were average. It would not be long before the imperial guards took control of the situation.

As such, this was the perfect time for the princes to perform.

Chu Yuemu nodded and rushed over, determined not to let Chu Yuefu take all the credit.

At this time, Chu Yuezheng, the Fourth Prince, and Consort Hong exchanged a look. In the end, the mother and son drank their tea calmly.

Chu Yuezheng’s attendant, who was standing behind, asked anxiously, afraid that the other princes would take the credit, “Fourth Prince, why don’t you go and protect the Emperor? The Crown Prince and the Seventh Prince have both taken action!”

Chu Yuezheng only said casually, “There’s no hurry. The show is just getting interesting.”

‘Huh? What does the Fourth Prince mean by this?’

The attendant was puzzled.

On the other side, Shan Fu got close to Yu Yunxi and whispered, “Eldest Princess, don’t worry.”

Yu Yunxi was briefly stunned. Then her eyes glinted coldly.

‘Who is Shan Fu working for?’

In just a blink of an eye, Shan Fu took advantage of the chaos and fled. Because most people were paying attention to the assassins on Chu Zai’s side, she escaped easily.

“Eldest Princess, I’ll go after her!” Meng Xia said angrily. ‘How dare she try to assassinate the Eldest Princess? I’ll never forgive her!’ Yu Yunxi quickly stopped Meng Xia and said, “Don’t be rash.’

Yu Yunxi could sense that Shan Fu’s martial arts were very powerful. The speed Shan Fu had used during her first attack was incongruent with her martial arts. As such, she concluded that Shan Fu did not really want to hurt her.

‘Then what’s her motive?’

Yu Yunxi looked at the chaotic scene for a moment before an idea flashed in her mind. She could vaguely guess why Feng Yili was absent from the banquet now.

Yu Yunxi patted the back of Meng Xia’s hand and pulled Meng Xia to retreat as she said, “Don’t worry. The show’s just about to start.”

At the same time, Chu Changlin had yet to react to the fact that her maidservant had just tried to assassinate someone.

The old nanny behind Chu Changlin said solemnly, “Princess, this is bad.”

Although Chu Changlin wanted Yu Yunxi to die, she knew that she could not make a move during the banquet. After all, apart from the imperial guards, no one was permitted to carry weapons. Moreover, although she was the

Emperor’s younger sister, she still could not get away with trying to kill Yu Yunxi in front of so many envoys from various countries.

That matter itself was already very problematic, but now another group of assassins appeared to kill Chu Zai. Regardless of whether these assassins were related to Chu Changlin or not, it would be difficult for her to defend herself.

“Hurry up. Go and protect my Imperial Brother!”

Chu Changlin’s mind was racing at this moment. At the same time, she anxiously urged the people around her to protect Chu Zai.

After thinking about it for a moment, Chu Changlin decided to run over as well. However, one of the assassins suddenly stood in front of her, as though he was protecting her. Then, the other party said, “Princess, don’t worry. We’ll protect you!”

Silence descended immediately. One could have heard a pin drop at this moment.

Chu Zai, who was surrounded by a group of imperial guards, naturally heard those words as well. He said through gritted teeth, “Imperial Sister, so it’s you who wants me dead.”

“No, Imperial Brother, it’s not me!”

Chu Changlin felt as though she had fallen into an abyss at this moment. Her entire body was cold as she shook her head frantically to deny it.

However, the assassins moved again.

The scene was chaotic, and the commotion drowned out Chu Changlin’s explanation. Not only that, but more and more assassins gathered around her to protect her. With this, in the eyes of the others, she looked even guiltier..
