Chapter 868: Killing Intent

l before, but the cost of steel water is too high...' ""It's alright."Li Chen waved his hand and said, "The Ministry of Industry will fully support this matter. Don't be afraid of the high cost. First...Chapter 868: Killing Intent

He was so confident that even if the East Palace were given some opportunities, the Crown Prince would be unable to threaten him. This was common sense, after all, even when the great emperor was still sane, Zhao Xuanji had already controlled the government. Let alone a Crown Prince of the East Palace.

But who would have thought that the Eastern Palace Prince's methods were so formidable, that he could almost topple Zhao Xuanji without anyone noticing. I think this is probably also the thing Zhao Xuanji regrets the most.

"Back then when the Emperor awoke, he summoned the Crown Prince to take regency. That night, Zhao Xuanji could have simply killed the Crown Prince and nothing would have happened, but he didn't. Therefore, his retribution came."

Li Yinhu gritted his teeth.

He also understood that this was his chance.

If the Crown Prince had been subdued back then, this Eighth Prince wouldn't even have a chance to become a prince.

It is both the time and fate, making it impossible to tell apart.

"Just one more thing."

Li Yinhu took a deep breath and said, "Among the several confidants in the East Palace, there are people from Zhao Xuanji."

This statement was like a bolt from the blue.

Duan Jinjiang's eyes flashed, and he immediately asked, "Who"

Li Yinhu shook his head slightly and said, "This is one of Zhao Xuanji's biggest secrets. He didn't tell me, I just guessed it from many clues. But now I'm more and more certain that such a person exists. It is precisely because of this person that Zhao Xuanji can know many policies and actions of the East Palace in advance, but in order to protect him, Zhao Xuanji has almost never let him do anything actively, nor has he used the information he provided to deal with the East Palace."

"Zhao Xuanji's purpose is to, at the most critical moment, use this person to inflict a heavy blow on the East Palace."

Du Jinchang couldn't help but laugh and said, "Good technique, it's his style."

And at this moment, Zhou Lao, who had been standing behind Li Yinhǔ as a transparent person all along, suddenly shouted in a low voice, "Who!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Lao's figure flashed, and he had already broken through the window, directly grabbing the person outside the door.

The sudden change startled the few people in the room.

Especially Li Yinhu, his whole face was full of killing intent.

What they were saying at this moment, not even a single word could be leaked. Who on earth had dared to run out the door

"Yes, it was me."

The man in Zhou Lao's hands uttered a voice familiar to Li Yinhu.

It was Xu Wei.

"Xu Wei"

Lee Yinhu's eyes flashed with suspicion as he said in a deep voice, "What are you doing here"

He wasn't sure how much Xu Wei had heard. If it was a lot, he would have to kill Xu Wei even though he didn't want to.

This is a very serious matter and cannot be taken lightly at all.

But Zhou Lao, who had long disliked Xu Wei, gradually increased the pressure on Xu Wei's throat with his fingers, as if he would crush Xu Wei's neck completely in the next second.

Xu Wei also felt this immense pressure and murderous intent. He knew he only had one chance to speak, one wrong move and he would die instantly.

However, the Crown Prince had told him about this very situation beforehand, instructing him to use it for such instances.

So, without even time to think, Xu Wei struggled to say: "Your Highness, I just received news from a reliable source. King Ning sent assassins to attack the convoy of the Crown Prince of Liao. Right now, the Crown Prince of Liao has disappeared, possibly escaped out of Yueya Pass, or possibly is dead. Furthermore, King Ning mobilized the Divine Martial Guards, their destination is unknown, but it must be a major operation!"

As soon as these words were spoken, not only Li Ynhu but also Duan Jinjiang became restless.e. At noon, she had some ordinary pastries, and that was all."Li Chen shouted.Immediately, guards entered to attend to his orders."Have all the ingredients from the Imperial Kitchen and Phoenix Pavili...
