The assassin in Night Clothes had extraordinarily high Martial Arts skills, and no one in Su Chengjin's residence was a match for him, not only was Su Chengjin killed, but several guards were also murdered.
As for the assassin, he escaped without leaving behind a single clue, making it impossible for anyone to track him down.
The dream of Duke Tao for his grandson to inherit the throne thus shattered.
The night Su Chengjin was murdered, Meng Zhuqing was asleep at home. While asleep, he was woken by a commotion outside.
There seemed to be someone outside...
Meng Zhuqing picked up the sword beside his bed and stood up. Instead of going through the door, he quietly opened the window and slipped out without making a sound. Then, he drew his sword and pressed it against the neck of the dark figure who was leaning against his room door about to knock.
"Who are you?" Meng Zhuqing asked coldly.
"It's me."
