You were asked to impersonate the King of Qin, not to become emperor!

Seeing this, the people from the Prince of Jin's mansion in the shadows were completely dumbfounded.

"When did the King of Qin acquire such a formidable female bodyguard, even more powerful than Deng Mei? She actually killed Xia Ying with a single sword strike?"

"Oh no, she's found us! What should we do?"

"Quiet down! We haven't made a move yet, how could she possibly have spotted us? Maybe she's just trying to trick us!"

As Wu Qianmeng's voice faded, the dense forest fell silent.

At this moment, Wu Qianmeng's lips curled into a cold smile: "Since you won't come out, I'll drag you out one by one!"

"Fourth brother, does this female thief have accomplices?"

The Ninth Prince turned pale with fright. He was the most unremarkable of all the princes, and all he knew in the capital was listening to music in brothels.

Because of his ordinariness, no one regarded him as a political opponent.

Therefore, he was never framed.

Seeing such a dangerous scene, I was so scared I almost wilted.

Swish!

In an instant, Wu Qianmeng captured all the people from the Prince of Jin's mansion in the dense forest.

These people were all top guards of the Prince of Jin's mansion, so they were already familiar faces.

After being caught, he knew his days were numbered.

If they were captured and taken to the Jin Emperor, their master would also suffer greatly.

Just as they were about to commit suicide, Wu Qianmeng quickly stopped them and bound their hands and feet.

"Someone, go and inform His Majesty that there was an assassin in the dense forest, but I have captured him. Please return to the palace as soon as possible; the hunting festival is canceled!"

"promise."

The news quickly reached the ears of Emperor Jin, who was shocked.

This dense forest belongs to the royal family and is the only venue for the royal family's annual hunting festival.

The security here is top-notch.

Even so, an assassin still managed to infiltrate the area.

"Guards, come with me to the dense forest. I want to see who this assassin is, and who wants me dead!"

Other emperors who encountered this poem would likely have immediately returned to the palace and left the dangerous scene.

Emperor Jin, as an emperor who rose from the battlefield, had seen it all.

He was very suspicious and just wanted to know who wanted to kill him.

"Your Majesty, there may still be some remaining assassins. Let's wait until the Prince of Qin has captured them all and brought them to the palace before you interrogate them!"

The personal eunuch bowed, looking worried.

"Get out of my way! A few petty assassins think they can frighten me? All civil and military officials, come with me to the dense forest. I want to thoroughly investigate this case!" Emperor Jin roared in fury.

Upon seeing this, all the civil and military officials nodded in agreement.

At this moment, the guards, three layers deep, including the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the Imperial Guard, and other top-notch palace guards, all followed Emperor Jin into the dense forest.

One side of the dense forest.

Chen Heng and Chen Zhi were waiting for news from Xia Ying.

They had no interest in hunting at that moment.

Because the next moment is their only chance to overthrow the King of Qin.

"Your Highness, assassins have been discovered in the dense forest. Has His Majesty entered the forest with his civil and military officials? His Majesty is furious and demands an investigation into the assassins' background and the mastermind behind the assassination!"

Suddenly, a servant rushed over to report.

Upon hearing this, Chen Heng and Chen Zhi both revealed a sinister smile on their faces.

"I didn't expect Xia Ying to succeed so quickly. Father is even angrier than I imagined. He actually went into the dense forest himself? This time, Fourth Prince is doomed!" Chen Heng said.

Chen Zhi, holding a folding fan, smiled coldly: "Brother, since Father has already gone, why don't we go over and add fuel to the fire for the Prince of Qin?"

"Haha, that's for sure. The King of Qin has been fighting with me for so long, but this time he has finally fallen into my hands!"

"However, although it cannot be proven, I still believe he is not the real King of Qin. The real King of Qin was long ago murdered and his body destroyed by that wretched beggar!"

Recalling how he had fallen from being the crown prince to this state, all thanks to this fake King of Qin, Chen Heng hated Chen Xuan to the core.

He and the King of Qin were brothers born of the same father and mother. Although they had conflicts, they were not deadly battles.

He felt ashamed ever since that beggar usurped the throne of Qin.

A lowly person actually got involved in the royal family's struggle and even dared to try to usurp the throne. This made Chen Heng want to kill him every time he plotted against him.

"Brother, are you saying this person is not the King of Qin? Didn't he previously prove his identity by performing a blood test?" Chen Zhi asked doubtfully.

If the other party is fake, that would be terrifying.

The sixth prince, Chen Feng, has already been killed by this imposter.

Although it is normal for princes to fight each other, it is outrageous that a lowly beggar could kill a member of the royal family and even covet the throne!

This is something that the entire royal family cannot tolerate!

"Of course! It's just that there was no evidence before, and Father Emperor favors this beggar greatly! What could I do?"

Chen Heng frowned, his face darkening. "However, today is the anniversary of his death! Today, before Father Emperor, I will not let this go!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhi felt even more pain than Chen Heng.

If that's the case, then his beloved goddess Zhen Mi wasn't slept with by his elder brother, but by a filthy and lowly beggar?

"Damn it! I will regret it for the rest of my life if I don't kill this villain!" Chen Zhi said angrily.

When Chen Heng and Chen Zhi arrived, they found that Emperor Jin's face was as cold as ice.

Everyone in the Jin Prince's mansion was tied up, and Xia Ying, the Liangzhou female assassin they thought was so powerful, was actually dead.

"Oh no, we've fallen for that beggar's trick."

Chen Zhi was quick-witted. Upon seeing this scene, he frowned and immediately realized that the situation was not good.

Chen Heng's expression changed drastically, and he thought to himself:

"How is this possible? Isn't Deng Mei, his most capable female bodyguard, protecting His Majesty? Besides, even Deng Mei couldn't have killed Xia Ying in such a short time, could she?"

Could it be that he has an even more powerful trump card up his sleeve?

Chen Heng was in unbearable pain, thinking to himself, "I really underestimated this lowly beggar!"

Seeing Chen Heng's pessimistic expression, Chen Zhi quickly advised, "Brother, don't be pessimistic. Don't forget, Xia Ying has a background in Liangzhou and used to serve the Prince of Qin. If we use this as a starting point to impeach the Prince of Qin, he will fall into the trap and be unable to clear his name!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Heng's confidence was greatly boosted.

"Yes, we haven't lost yet! Xia Ying is dead, but he can't erase the fact that Xia Ying was once his subordinate!"

"Attend to Father Emperor!"

When Chen Heng and Chen Zhi arrived, they both knelt down.

Upon seeing Chen Heng, the Jin Emperor flew into a rage, kicking Chen Heng to the ground. "Tell me, how did the guards of the Prince of Jin's residence end up here? Did you kill me to seize the throne?"

These were the top guards of the Prince of Jin's residence, which aggravated Emperor Jin's suspicions.

Chen Heng hurriedly explained with tears in his eyes, "Father, I am innocent! I beg you to investigate!"

"Injustice? You'd better give me a reasonable explanation!" Emperor Jin sneered.

At this moment, Chen Xuan knelt down and said loudly, "Father, it was this female thief who tried to kill the Ninth Prince just now. It just so happened that my guards and I were passing by and prevented this tragedy."
