The next day.
Zhu Zaihou got up and walked out of the bedroom after breakfast.
Sunlight shone on the Imperial Lake.
The water of the Imperial Lake came from the Yongding River outside the palace. It was clear and transparent.
On the arch bridge, Zhu Zaihou held the white jade railing with both hands.
He looked down at the fish in the lake.
Most of these fish were mainly koi, and they were colorful.
Just as he was engrossed in reading.
A strange shadow appeared on a big tree beside the lake.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
A few cold lights shot toward Zhu Zaihou, who was standing on the arch bridge.
Zhu Zaihou had his back to the assassin, and the other imperial guards did not notice that there was an assassin in the palace.
It happened so suddenly and in a relaxed state.
Zhu Zaihou relied on the agility granted by the system to dodge subconsciously.
However, Zhu Zaihou didn't completely avoid it. One of the cold lights cut open his dragon robe…
"Protector beast! Protector beast! Protector!"
He immediately pulled out his Embroidered Spring Blade and pounced at the assassin with a mad roar.
Zhu Zaihou soon realized that the assassin on the tree was not alone, but had accomplices.
In the blink of an eye, another Assassin had already swooped down from another tree…
This qinggong was definitely a peerless expert!
This was the first time Zhu Zaihou had faced the threat of death since he transmigrated!
At this critical moment, the system that Zhu Zaihou had enhanced automatically activated.
"Clang!"
A long sword appeared in Zhu Houjian's hand. It was Qin Shihuang's Tianwen Sword!
The Tianwen Sword had a silver light on its body, and a dragon and phoenix were carved on its surface.
It was made of rosewood and redwood, and was inlaid with thin brass sheets. There were patterns embedded in it, making it simple and dignified.
The sword was broad and as black as ink. Its spine was forged by bones and its blade was tempered by blood.
The material used to forge the sword was a meteorite that fell from the sky. It took three years to forge it.
It was four feet and nine inches long and weighed nine pounds. It was named Tianwen.
The Tianwen Sword blocked the long saber that was coming at him.
The assassin let out an "ah". This slash would definitely kill him.
But at this moment, the long saber had already been knocked down by the Tianwen sword.
The assassin did not give up. Instead, he pulled out the short knife he carried with him and tried to continue the assassination.
At this time, more and more imperial guards were coming, and ten of them were already protecting Zhu Zaihou.
The assassin saw that the assassination had failed and that the situation was not good.
His feet suddenly tapped on the ground, and he flew six zhang high.
He climbed up the roof of the hall and soon disappeared…
————
Zhu Zaihou was shocked to find that his dragon robe had been torn open.
If he hadn't dodged in time, he would have been killed by the blade...
Zhu Zaihou had never expected that an assassin would be able to enter the heavily guarded forbidden area.
Were those imperial guards and palace guards just for show?!
After keeping the Tianwen sword, the first thing Zhu Houjiu wanted to know was who wanted to kill him.
If he found out, Zhu Zaihou would cut him into pieces and exterminate his entire family!
After today's incident, Zhu Houjiu had decided to punish all the imperial guards and exile them to Lingnan!
What was the use of keeping such a good-for-nothing!
When the emperor was angry, the capital was shaken!
Countless martial artists in the martial world were filled with righteous indignation over this matter.
The Ming Empire was flourishing day by day, and a Saint Monarch had appeared out of nowhere. There was actually someone who tried to assassinate him!
This was intolerable!
The many martial arts experts living in seclusion in the mountains could no longer sit still. They wanted to go to the capital to protect the emperor.
The two assassins were wearing black cloths and were extremely fast.
Those imperial guards were not their match at all.
Within the Imperial Palace, hundreds of experts from the inner court were chasing after them, but they managed to escape easily.
Every time Zhu Zaihou thought about it, he would break out in a cold sweat.
If he used the Tianwen sword at the critical moment, he would definitely not be able to escape this assassination!
The country he had taken over was like a tiger's den and a dragon's pond.
Because of this, Zhu Zaihou made an oath:
"You dare to risk the world's condemnation to assassinate me? I will definitely let you die without a burial ground!”
At the same time, he promoted Yu Huatian as the supervisor of the East Hall, officially taking charge of the East Hall.
——――
The emperor was assassinated, and the court was shocked.
The officials were filled with righteous indignation, and they sent out a series of memorials requesting that the assassins be investigated. The entire capital was sealed off!
After Yu Huatian became the supervisor of the East Chamber, he sent out all the spies to investigate the assassination of the Emperor and find out who was behind it.
This time, the East and West Chambers were guarding the inner palace, and it was Huang Jin's turn to be on duty.
After this incident, Huang Jin's heart immediately broke down.
However, the assassin had actually entered the palace under his watch.
If Tian Zi had not dodged in time…
Within half a day, there were already hundreds of memorials requesting the Emperor to kill Huang Jin.
At this moment, Zhu Zaihou was lying on a couch in Yangxin Palace Hall, reading the various messages sent by the cabinet.
