Chapter 805: Mission

missed Yelu Shenxuan's true intentions. He directly refused.“This technique was passed down to me by my senior brother. I hesitated to use it before, but now that I've become like this, if I go back...Chapter 805: Task

Xu Wei didn't even raise an eyebrow, and immediately replied, "I dare!"

Li Yinhu nodded in satisfaction and said, “Very good.”

He did not give direct orders, but spoke softly: "You should know that the current situation is very tense. Although the Crown Prince and I are brothers, he is narrow-minded and cannot tolerate me. He could attack me at any time."

Xu Wei's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

His expression matched Li Yinhu's guess perfectly.

It is indeed a natural reaction for an ordinary person to hear such a secret.

... he didn't know that half of Xu Wei's shock was feigned, and the other half was because Li Yinhu had actually confided in him so deeply, even revealing something as important as this. ...

"This king wants to wholeheartedly assist the crown prince, but alas, the crown prince doesn't allow this king to be by his side. Xu Wei, what should this king do"

Xu Wei immediately replied: "I don't understand these things. All I know is that my life belongs to the prince. Whatever the prince asks me to do, I will do it. Anyone who wants to harm the prince must first step over my corpse."

Li Yinhu laughed heartily and said with great satisfaction, "Not bad, not bad at all."

"Since you have such loyalty, I shall entrust you with a matter of great importance at this time."

Xu Wei bowed his head and said in a low voice, "But please, Your Highness, command me. I will go through fire and water without hesitation."

"Tonight you are to leave the palace and go all the way to Xizhimen gate. There, you will meet an old Taoist priest holding a divination flag. You should ask him if he fishes. If he replies that there are no fish but one turtle, then it is the signal."

"After that, he will take you to a secret place. On the way there, don't ask anything and don't speak much. When you arrive, there will be a group of three hundred elite swordsmen waiting for you. Your task is to transport these swordsmen into the capital in batches and hide them safely."

Speaking of this, Li Yinhu's expression suddenly turned serious as he said in a deep voice, "These three hundred elite swordsmen and axe wielders are part of Zhao Fu's forces. They will be of great use later. You don't need to communicate with them; they will obey your orders completely. After settling things, just wait there and don't come back. If this king needs them, someone will contact you, and you will follow my orders at that time."

This statement is extremely informative.

Xu Wei immediately learned two extremely important pieces of information.

First, Zhao Xuanji has completely allied with Li Yinhu.

Secondly, these two people formed an alliance and planned a rebellion!

One is the chief minister, wielding immense power and influence over the court.

The other was the eighth prince of the current dynasty, a king with pure blood.

These two people formed an alliance and secretly prepared a group of elite swordsmen to be hidden in the capital. What were they trying to do

Even a fool knows what they want to do.

And Xu Wei was certain that, whether it was Zhao Xuanji's doing or Li Yinhou's ambition, once they started to take risks and embark on this path, it would definitely not be as simple as just three hundred people.

It's possible that me and these three hundred people are just one small part of their grand scheme.

Suppressing the tumultuous and complex thoughts churning within him, Xu Wei bowed respectfully and replied, “Understood.”

"Understood."n."My lord, I was wrong. I was too hasty. Even if I have a thousand faults, right now the East Palace is clearly trying to take advantage of the situation. On such an important day as New Year's Eve,...
