Crown Prince Xiao Ze made his decision on the spot, "Since he is now favoured by our father, I, as his elder brother, will not be blamed for being ruthless."
After all, there is only one throne.
The lead Hidden Guard of the Eastern Palace had been dispatched, but Crown Prince Xiao Ze, impatient for Xiao Zhen's death, sent out the elite guard Squad Jingwei, who were responsible for the Eastern Palace's protection.
Therefore, not more than a hundred miles from the Capital City, Xiao Zhen encountered an assassination attempt by the Eastern Palace's elite guard Squad Jingwei.
The protectors Ling Hua had arranged for Xiao Zhen naturally proved their worth. Both sides engaged in fierce combat in the dark of the night, staining the resting pavilion along the official road with blood.
