An assassination attempt at the Royal Hunting Ground—it was an absolutely appalling event.
Emperor Muwu was enraged. He immediately commanded the Imperial Army to split into three groups and head deep into the forest to search, ordering them to apprehend the assassins at all costs.
"Where is the Second Prince!?" Emperor Muwu demanded, scanning the area. He didn't see Xiao Chengxuan.
A military general immediately stepped forward. "Your Majesty, Prince Qi is still in the forest. I have already sent men to provide him with backup."
Consort Ru's slender brows furrowed in apprehension. "I heard there were more than a dozen assassins, and every one of them is a martial arts expert. If Cheng Xuan runs into them, what will he do?"
Emperor Muwu's face was cold and grim. "He is a Prince! If he doesn't even have the courage to face an enemy, what a disgrace!"
