Chapter 396 Assassin's Night Attack
As soon as the guards of the palace were strengthened, someone attacked the palace at night to assassinate the current emperor. King Xian led the guards and the assassins fought fiercely outside the Jinwu Hall.

After King Rui got the news, he rushed over immediately. At that time, King Xian was fighting with others. King Xian used to be a famous general when he was young. Although he is old now, he can still see his strength. .

King Rui commanded the soldiers he had brought, and went to help. Dozens of assassins were soon surrounded, and King Rui also rushed forward to confront them. Soon, all the assassins were surrendered, seven or eight were killed or injured. , and the rest were all captured alive.

But these assassins are well-trained, once they are caught, they will bite the poison sac hidden in their mouths and kill them all.

King Rui looked at the corpse lying on the ground, and found a bronze token from a person. He carefully picked up the token, looked at it casually, raised his eyebrows, and said to King Xian: "Brother Wang, this What is the token?"

Xian Wangyexiu noticed that token, it was the token of the group of swordsmen under the late emperor, it appeared here, it means that these people are those swordsmen.

"Send someone to let Chen Guang enter the palace." Xian Wang ordered decisively, "Drag these corpses down and burn them, and send someone to investigate their identities, Ci Ming, put away the token in your hand, Eunuch Li, Ask the imperial physician to come to the imperial study."

Imperial physician?At this moment, King Rui glanced at the bronze token with lingering fear. Indeed, it is really difficult to guarantee the safety of this token.

After a while, the imperial physician was summoned, and King Xian asked him to check King Rui's body, and then the bronze token, and let him leave after knowing that there was no poison.

"Brother Wang, who do you think did what happened tonight?" King Rui was relieved to know that his health was fine, but he was still annoyed by his carelessness.

"There are too many people who want His Majesty to die, and this king can't tell." There are too many ambitious people inside and outside the court. Anyone who covets the throne can do this.

This is the truth, King Rui weighed in his heart whether the emperor had asked Chu Huang before, and whether he needed to explain it to King Xian.

"Ciming, do you have anything to say?" There have been a lot of affairs in the court recently, and there are countless memorials. Many ministers have already asked for the establishment of a crown prince, and even the queen mother also thinks that the crown prince should be established.

The emperor was critically ill, and his life and death were uncertain. Appointing a prince in advance would indeed calm the hearts of the people, but without the emperor's decision-making, as a regent, it was really difficult for him to make a judgment lightly on who to appoint as the prince.

The second prince is indeed talented, but he is not the most suitable Mingjun. Now he has the most prestige, and the ministers all agree that the second prince should be made the crown prince. Many people have written to invite him. He really has a headache.

"Brother Wang, what are you worrying about recently? The Second Prince's triumphant return should be a great event. Why are you still so restless?"

It is a good thing to be able to win the battle, but the problem lies in how to deal with the second prince and the minister's performance.

"The Right Prime Minister and a group of ministers wrote a letter to make the second prince the crown prince. Ciming, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

"This is your majesty's business. You can make a decision after your majesty wakes up." Even the regent cannot make a decision on the establishment of a prince. "However, Tianrui is indeed a talent. He has achieved such an achievement at a young age, and becoming the crown prince is also expected by everyone."
