Chapter 333 Assassin, bad news

Even if he is now in an absolute advantage, he has never forgotten this.

A prince with no foundation turned out to be the person with the greatest opportunity. Even he felt that this was like a dream.

"Next, it's time to free up your hands to deal with the second child. If I have the handle, I don't believe you dare to resist."

Li Luo had a confident smile on his face.

He thought that by grasping the opponent's weak point, he could easily control Li Fei.

But he overlooked one point. Does Li Fei really not care about being threatened?

Having the handle means taking the initiative, but it also puts yourself in danger.

Li Fei will never allow his demon cultivation to be leaked, because once it is leaked, not only will his legitimate position be lost, but his current status will also be taken away.

And only the dead can truly keep secrets.

Of course, Li Fei didn't take action without permission. He still didn't know who was waiting around Li Luo and how strong they were.

Taking action rashly angered Li Luo and would have a greater impact on Li Fei.

Li Fei would not dare to take action without absolute certainty.

Li Luo was thinking about the problem when suddenly a dark shadow flashed past the door. His peripheral vision caught sight of the dark shadow, and his expression suddenly tightened.

Shouldn't you just come?

"Who is it?!"

Suddenly there was a loud noise outside.

"Clang!! Clang, clang, clang!"

Then there was another sound of metal colliding, and it was obvious that a fight had occurred.

"Assassin! There is an assassin!..."

A little eunuch screamed outside.

This made Li Luo feel even more nervous. Who is attacking him now?

The eldest or the second?

Regarding this question, Li Luo does not have an answer yet.

But compared to the second child, he is more inclined to doubt the boss.

The second child still has the leverage in his hands and will not act rashly. Then the only one left is the boss.

The sound of fighting outside continued for a while, and not long after, the fighting finally ended.

"Third...His Royal Highness the Third Prince, the assassin...has been repulsed at this moment."

There was a reporting voice outside the door. It was the voice of the young eunuch, but the voice was a little shaky.

Hearing this, the stone in Li Luo's heart finally fell, but luckily he blocked it.

Not knowing what the situation was like outside, Li Luo cautiously came to the door and opened it, ready to find out.

There was a little eunuch standing outside the door, standing there respectfully, but he was still a little trembling.

Obviously, he must have witnessed the battle just now and was frightened.

Li Luo came to the door and saw a body covered in black lying on the ground outside.

The person who killed the assassin was the person Ye Yun sent to protect Li Luo.

Li Luo turned to look at the little eunuch and said in a deep voice.

"How many assassins are there?"

When asked suddenly, the young eunuch responded hastily.

"Your Highness, there are three assassins in total. This gentleman killed one, and the other two were injured and escaped."

"Three..."

Unexpectedly, there were three killers. It seemed that his opponent wanted to kill him!

It seems that some people don't want to follow the rules, but want to do some tricks.

Li Luo suddenly realized that he seemed to be a little too kind, and he must be ruthless when he should be ruthless.

If you want to achieve great things and sit in that position, you must be ruthless enough.

After glancing at the little eunuch, Li Luo said again.

"Take care of this place. Don't publicize this matter for the time being. Just pretend that nothing happened. Do you understand?"

I have already said so, the little eunuch should know what to do.

"Yes! Your Highness, this servant knows."

The little eunuch hurriedly nodded vigorously, but did not dare to violate it in the slightest.

Then, Li Luo looked at the guard who killed the assassin and thanked him.

"Thank you sir. If it weren't for you, I would be in trouble tonight."

Hearing this, the man holding the sword nodded slightly.

"This is the task assigned to me by the young master. I must protect your safety. You don't need to thank me. If you want to thank me, just thank the young master."

After saying that, he turned around and left, and soon his figure disappeared into the night.

He didn't really leave here, he was just protecting it secretly.

The assassins tonight have been killed, so there should be no problem in resting them next.

Li Luo returned to the room to rest with confidence.

…

The next morning.

Early in the morning, a burst of bad news suddenly came from the palace.

Just last night, Emperor Li Zong, who was supposed to be unconscious, died inexplicably.

That's right, dead.

No one knows what happened, and no one knows why Li Zonghui passed away suddenly.

It had been very peaceful last night, and nothing else happened at all. Logically speaking, Li Zong could not have died for no reason.

Although he had been unconscious before, there was no life safety problem at all.

But now the people are gone, and something is wrong everywhere.

At this sensitive time, the sudden death of the emperor naturally caused an uproar.

The little eunuch who was on duty last night died in the room immediately after his shift changed early this morning.

This is obviously a premeditated murder.

Li Zong was harmed by others.

As for who killed him, it is not clear yet.

This matter is of great importance, even very serious, and the palace was sealed off immediately.

At the same time, the imperial physician was called in immediately to diagnose the cause of death for Li Zong.

The final conclusion was that Li Zong died of natural causes.

When this conclusion was reached, no one believed it.

It was obviously strange everywhere. How could it be a natural death? There must be something fishy.

But several consecutive imperial physicians came to the same conclusion and there was no problem.

This is a dilemma. Why is it a normal death, but it doesn't look like a normal death?

For a time, there were many doubts in the palace. Everyone was wondering whether Li Zong died of an unnatural death or a natural death.

After the ministers in the court knew about this matter, their faces changed. No one expected that Li Zong would die so quickly.

He died suddenly, and because he had been in a coma before, he didn't even leave any will.

So which prince should succeed the throne?

The eldest prince, the second prince, and the third prince have all demonstrated their abilities, and the ministers have also seen the competition during this period of time.

Each prince has good abilities, and no prince has completely lost power for the time being, so the three of them have the ability to compete.

Then the issue of the ownership of the throne will be the focus of discussion next.

Of course, Li Zong's death is full of weirdness and is also the subject of discussion.

No one expected that after just one night, earth-shaking changes would occur.
