Chapter 101
"First of all, judging from the assassination scene, the arrows used by the assassins were not made by the empire, but came from the northern tribes. These arrows are called wolfsbane arrows. They are quenched with poison. Once they hit the enemy, they are considered dead. It can poison people even if it doesn’t kill them.”

"Fortunately, Mr. Lu sucked out most of the emperor's poisonous blood, so that the emperor's life can be saved!"

Eunuch Yan began to talk.

"Well, Mr. Lu has indeed made a great contribution this time!"

The Queen Mother nodded slightly.

"The wolfsbane arrows come from the north, so the man behind the scenes must have fought, traded, or had contact with the northern tribes."

"Among the generals and ministers in the empire, I believe that the Supervision Department and Yanwu Secret Guards can investigate those who have had contact with the North."

Eunuch Yan continued.

The Queen Mother nodded slightly and understood what he meant.

"When the slave arrived, the assassin may not have found Master Lu and the Emperor, so he decisively chose to retreat. The slave chased me all the way. Once many assassins found me, they directly chose to commit suicide by taking poison."

"This shows that these people are all dead soldiers and have been prepared to sacrifice for a long time. To be able to train such well-disciplined dead soldiers, the manpower and material resources used behind them are not small."

"Therefore, there is no doubt about the financial resources of the people behind the scenes, and it is impossible for all the dead soldiers trained by the people behind the scenes to be dispatched, so there are traces of the remaining dead soldiers."

Eunuch Yan's analysis was very clear and logical.

As long as there are traces to follow, they will definitely be able to investigate. After all, so many dead soldiers were dispatched this time, and the movement was too great.

"The two eighth-grade killers who fought against the slaves have strong internal strength. Although they are masked and cannot see their appearance, the two eighth-grade masters will definitely not be unknown. After investigation, something should be discovered."

"As for letting them slip away, the slave did it deliberately, because the slave left a special powder on the two of them. As long as they return to their lives, the slave can track the person behind the scenes."

Eunuch Yan finally released his ultimate move.

"Very good! I'll leave this matter to you. Once it's verified, I'll report it back to Ai's house immediately!"

The Queen Mother was overjoyed and excited.

"Reporting to the Queen Mother, I have been sending people to follow the two eighth-grade killers. It would have been a surprise. I only showed up now to lower the vigilance of the killers!"

Eunuch Yan finally realized that everything was under his control.

A ninth-grade master is indeed amazing!
Two princes were killed before. If Eunuch Yan had taken action earlier, he would have found the real culprit.

"Eunuch Yan, the Ai family did not misjudge you! Go and find the person behind the scenes, the Ai family will be richly rewarded!"

The Empress Dowager encouraged loudly.

"Slave, take orders! Resign!"

After Eunuch Yan finished speaking, he turned around and left.

The Empress Dowager looked at his disappearing back, a cold murderous look flashed in her eyes.

No matter who it is, if they want to touch their own son, they will die.

In the past, she had thought that if Murong Yuan was really injured or disobedient, she would take his brother Murong Hong back.

However, after Shangguan Cheng wrote to Murong Hong, for some unknown reason, Murong Hong stopped contacting her.

In this case, she could only support Murong Yuan unconditionally.

……

The night falls, and the night wind is slightly cool.

The two eighth-level killers who were seriously injured by Eunuch Yan were currently hiding in a cave deep in the hunting ground.

As trained soldiers, neither of them knew who the other was, only a code name.

The taller one is codenamed Gui Yi, while the shorter one is codenamed Long Wu.

Ever since they joined Deadman's training camp, they have disfigured themselves and have been wearing masks.

However, in order to assassinate the emperor, he chose the most ordinary mask.

"Long Wu, I'm seriously injured. I'm afraid I won't survive."

Ghost smiled bitterly.

"What are you afraid of when a man is wrapped in horse leather? Isn't it just a life? Twenty years later, I will be a good man again!" Long Wu regarded death as if he were home, and his pride did not diminish.

"Ahem... My master has been so kind to me that I can't repay him even if I am broken into pieces. It's just a life. I just want to see my master again before he dies."

Ghost coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"I want to see him too! However, I always feel that the old eunuch let us go on purpose. If we go to see the master, he will definitely be exposed."

Long Wu expressed his worries.

"Then...that old eunuch is really terrifying! I'm afraid he's not inferior to...compared to the master. I didn't expect that he...he came so fast!"

Guiyi was a little out of breath even when he spoke.

It was obvious that both men had suffered severe internal injuries, but he had suffered more severe injuries.

"Yes, if that brat hadn't rescued Murong Yuan, we would have completed our mission by now."

The kid in Long Wu's mouth refers to Lu Hao.

"Forget it, since...since the mission has failed, then I...we have no value in existence. Wanting to see the master for the last time...is probably a luxury."

Guiyi looked a little regretful.

"Gui Yi, you damn ghost, I already told you that this is the old eunuch's conspiracy. Do you want to expose the master?"

Long Wu warned.

"You... don't worry, I... I just thought about it, I... I won't survive tonight."

Gui Yi knows that his fate will not be long.

The two of them had been fighting on the battlefield for many years. Naturally, they did not think that they could escape from the hands of the old eunuch and many imperial guards. Instead, they immediately realized that the other party was deliberately playing a long game to catch the big fish.

Therefore, the two will never go back and expose their master.

As for the ending of the two of them, it seems that it has been doomed for a long time and there is no way to change it.

"Alas! It's a pity that our mission failed, and now it has no value at all."

Long Wu sighed.

"Who... who said there is no value anymore? I think we can..."

Before Gui Yi died, he actually thought of a cruel move.

Death!

The legendary strategy of using one's own death to alienate enemies.

The two conspired, and Gui Yi and Long Wu immediately planned an action.

……

Perhaps because the emperor was injured in an assassination, the empress dowager ordered that the autumn hunting ceremony be suspended and preparations were made to break camp and return to the palace tomorrow.

Participants in the competition can enter the royal hunting ground and search for two injured eighth-level assassins. Once found, the Queen Mother will reward them heavily.

As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under the reward.

After getting the news, many people formed teams and set off, wanting to try their luck in it.

Lu Hao was injured now, but he didn't feel like this, and he didn't think that two eighth-level masters could be caught so easily, even if they were injured.

When Concubine Yi learned that Lu Hao was injured, she was originally worried that the boy would not come at night.

However, after she took a shower and changed clothes, Lu Hao sneaked in secretly.

"You...why are you here? Aren't you injured?"

Concubine Yi was a little surprised.

"Sister Yi, my injury is not a problem."

Lu Hao said, went up and hugged her.
