Chapter 441: Oops, something happened in the palace

Chapter 441 Oops, something happened in the palace

The battalion commander raised his lips slightly, revealing a sly smile, and then said: "So, we don't have to do anything now, just wait here honestly. When the people on both sides are almost dead or wounded, we will take the opportunity to rush in and catch them all in one fell swoop! At that time, the blame will naturally be put on the head of the Seven Star Pavilion!"

After hearing what the battalion commander said, the other man could not help but admire their master's wisdom and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Well, the master is still as wise as a god!"

The battalion commander looked at him with satisfaction, then turned to the black-clad man who reported the news and said, "Okay, go check out the situation and see how the fighting is going. When it's almost over, send us a signal!"

The assassins were unable to take the palace, and time passed by bit by bit. The sky gradually turned from dark to bright, and the faint light of dawn began to shine through the clouds to the earth. The assassin leader was extremely anxious, because he knew that if he could not resolve the battle before dawn, once he was discovered and called for reinforcements, they would be wiped out.

After weighing the pros and cons, the assassin leader made a decisive decision to use the extreme measure of fire attack. He gave a loud order and asked his men to quickly prepare a large number of torches.

In an instant, countless torches fell from the sky like raindrops, landing in Keremu's yard. After these torches landed, they instantly ignited the surrounding grass, trees and buildings, and the raging fire spread rapidly, and the palace was immediately covered with flames.

The assassins took this opportunity to rush into the yard like hungry tigers and started a thrilling fight with Keremu's men. The flashing of swords and the deafening shouts of killing made the whole scene extremely tragic.

Keremu and Baixi did not flinch, they led all the imperial guards to fight the assassins hand to hand, and launched a desperate fight. The two sides fought back and forth, neither giving in, and for a while the whole palace was filled with shouts and screams.

Just as the two sides were fighting fiercely, the men in black who had been lying in ambush outside the palace heard the noise inside. They moved quickly like ghosts, appeared one after another, and surrounded the entire palace tightly.

Then, these men in black drew their bows and arrows in unison, aiming their arrows at the interior of the palace. With just one order, countless arrows were shot at the palace like a rain of locusts, and the dense rain of arrows covered the sky and the earth, leaving no place for people to hide.

At this time, in the palace, the two sides who were fighting fiercely suddenly heard a sharp sound of breaking through the air. This sound was like a ghost, and it was particularly abrupt in this chaotic battlefield. Everyone was shocked and looked up at the sky at the same time, only to see arrows flying towards them like locusts passing through the sky.

These arrows were as dense as raindrops, making it impossible to avoid them. Everyone was terrified and began to look for shelters to hide in. However, most of the yard was still engulfed in flames, and there were very few shelters to hide in!

At this critical moment of life and death, many people had no time to find a suitable shelter and could only watch arrows rain down on them. In an instant, screams rang out one after another, and many people were pierced through the heart by thousands of arrows, blood splattered everywhere, and the scene was horrible!

The assassin leader was also caught off guard by this sudden attack. He stared with wide eyes, looking suspiciously at the endless stream of arrows. These arrows seemed to have no target and were completely indiscriminate attacks. Not only did his own people suffer heavy losses, but many people on the prince's side were also killed by the arrows.

The assassin leader thought to himself, "What is going on? Is there anyone else who wants to take this opportunity to assassinate the prince?"

A thought suddenly flashed through his mind: "Oh no, we may have fallen into someone's trap!" The owner of these arrows had obviously been hiding in the dark, waiting for both of them to suffer losses, and then he would reap the benefits.

If at this time, he still stubbornly insisted on assassinating the prince, then once the prince was killed, they would definitely be ruthlessly eliminated by those people outside.

However, if he chose to join hands with the prince to resist the foreign enemies, he might still be able to find a glimmer of hope. After all, only by eliminating all the enemies outside first, they would have a chance to complete their original mission - to turn around and give the prince a fatal blow.

However, before he could take further action, suddenly, there was a noisy sound of footsteps outside, and then a group of dark people rushed in like a tide. These people were also wearing night clothes, and their first move was a ruthless killing move, which obviously meant no good.

However, if you look closely, you will find that these people's night clothes are obviously different from those of the Seven Star Pavilion. Their night clothes are just ordinary styles, while the night clothes of the Seven Star Pavilion not only have special logos, but also have unique workmanship and design. This is because in order to make the Seven Star Pavilion famous, they specially designed such a unique night clothes.

However, today, this unique nightgown unexpectedly became an important feature for them to distinguish between friends and enemies. At this moment, the situation was urgent and they could not afford to think too much. Those who broke into the palace like ghosts obviously came with the intention of killing everyone in the palace.

Therefore, the assassins who were originally responsible for assassinating the prince no longer cared about completing the task. They quickly picked up their weapons and started a thrilling fight with the black-clad men who poured in like a tide!

At the same time, at each exit of the palace, there were a group of men in black armed with bows and arrows, waiting in full battle array. Their mission was to guard these exits and not let any enemy escape.

Standing behind the group of men in black was a tall, gloomy-looking man in black. He scanned every corner of the palace with his sharp eyes, and then shouted in a deep and majestic voice: "Look carefully! Anyone who comes out of here, as long as they are not one of us, will be shot to death. No one will be spared!"

"Yes!" The men in black answered in unison. Their voices echoed in the night sky with a sense of determination and coldness.

At this time, Bayer led Mo Ming and dozens of other people, still desperately rushing towards the direction of the royal mausoleum. Bayer shouted anxiously: "My lord, the ambush soldiers are ahead. If we rush over like this, we will definitely be shot into a hornet's nest by their rain of arrows!"

After hearing Bayer's words, Mo Ming slowly raised his head and stared at the sky, which was already turning slightly pale. He said calmly and indifferently, "It's already this hour. Those ambushing soldiers may not still be guarding their positions. They may have already entered the royal mausoleum."

After hearing what Mo Ming said, Bayer became more worried. "Then we have to speed up! If two groups of troops attack the royal mausoleum at the same time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince might be in great danger now!"

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly saw a fire rising from the direction of the palace, lighting up the entire night sky. Seeing this, Bayer's face turned pale in an instant and he screamed, "Oh no! Something happened in the palace!"

Her heartbeat accelerated rapidly, as if it was about to jump out of her throat. At this moment, what she was most concerned about was the safety of the Crown Prince and her brother-in-law. She didn't know if they were safe or if they had met with any misfortune.
