The third prince was delighted to hear this and said to him sternly, "Hurry up and bring the letter over!" The timid assassin slowly took off a pendant from his neck, then opened it and took out a letter from it, "Prince, take a look at this and see if it works." The third prince was stunned for a moment and took the letter from him. The assassins on the side were all shocked and scolded the cowardly assassin: "You kid! Didn't I ask you to burn the letter? Why did you hide it!"

The cowardly assassin trembled and held his head and said: "My mother said that we are working for the Queen Mother, and asked me to keep the letter. Maybe I can save my life with this letter in the future."

The group of assassins scolded him one by one: "You useless thing!"

The third prince let them quarrel and slowly opened the letter to read. The content of the letter happened to be the last time the Queen Mother asked them to assassinate the Queen on the way to exile.

He held the letter tightly in his hand, turned around and looked at the group of assassins in front of him, and said coldly: "Don't worry, you won't die."

The timid assassin thought that the Third Prince wanted to let him go, so he knelt down and smiled: "Thank you, Prince, thank you, Prince."

The Third Prince slowly squatted down, grabbed his collar, and said coldly: "I will bring you alive to the emperor, and let you tell him in person about your sins."

The assassins were shocked, and some of them wanted to bite their tongues to commit suicide.

The Third Prince strode forward and grabbed his neck, "Do you think you can protect your family if you die? I tell you that the Concubine Queen can threaten you with your family, and I can also threaten you with your family. From now on, whoever dies, I will exterminate his nine clans!"

The assassins were surprised.

One of them was brave enough to stand up and laugh: "Prince, do you think I will believe you? You just want to use us! Even if I die today, I will not go to the capital with you!"

The third prince slowly stood up and said coldly: "The emperor may not know as well as I do who the guards in the palace are from. Are you so sure that I am lying to you?"

The man's face turned pale and he paused for a moment.

The third prince then said to the other assassins: "If one of you dies, I will kill all of you and your entire family!"

Everyone was shocked after hearing this.

The man who wanted to commit suicide just now had his hands tied and his mouth gagged by his companions before he could react to what happened.

Seeing this, the third prince waved his hand and said to the followers behind him: "Put all these people in the carriage!"

"Yes, Prince."

The followers responded and threw all these people into the carriage.

The Third Prince turned around and followed them into the carriage, and asked the leading assassin to write a letter and send it to the capital by pigeon.

Two days later, the letter arrived in the hands of Concubine Duan.

Concubine Duan looked at the letter saying that the Queen was dead, and she breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on her face.

The maid beside her rubbed her shoulders and asked, "My Queen, is there any good news?"

Concubine Duan put the letter on the candle beside her and lit it, "There is good news, the woman is dead."

The maid frowned and asked in confusion, "Is she really dead?"

Concubine Duan smiled and said, "The group of people who were caught by me should not lie."

The maid whispered, "My Queen, you'd better be careful. Look, didn't they escape last time? This time, we must bring back the woman's head as well."

Concubine Duan nodded and said, "You are right, I will send them another secret letter now."

The maid quickly brought the special paper and ink and handed it to Concubine Duan.

Concubine Duan wrote the letter with her left hand and then handed it to the maid.

The maid put the letter on the ankle of the pigeon, secretly carried the pigeon to a deserted place, and released it.

The pigeon finally fell into the hands of the Third Prince.

The Third Prince took out the letter and opened it to see that it was a piece of white paper. He put the white paper on the fire and roasted it. After a while, the words written by Concubine Duan appeared on it.

He was so angry that he almost flipped the lamp on the table.

The attendant on the side hurried over and said, "Prince, what's wrong with you?"
