It was specially made by someone Zhao Yuan had.
There is a hidden compartment behind the desk.
yesterday,
Knowing that Emperor Huizong (Zhao Ji) would definitely be coming today...
Zhao Yuan then cocked a small crossbow in advance.
He then hid the crossbow and a dagger in a hidden compartment behind the desk.
At this time,
Zhao Yuan was talking about that famous proverb from later generations.
"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, never underestimate a young man's potential!"
"Well said! Such youthful spirit..."
Emperor Huizong exclaimed loudly.
But before he could finish speaking,
Then I heard Gao Qiu shout loudly beside me.
"Your Majesty, be careful!"
Zhao Ji opened his eyes and saw...
Only then did he notice Zhao Yuan standing not far away behind the desk.
He actually pulled out a small crossbow!
The arrows on the bow and crossbow
Pointing straight in his direction.
This brat actually tried to assassinate me!
Although Zhao Ji was an unqualified emperor,
But my body is still in good shape.
Whether as Prince Duan,
He later inherited the throne.
He has always loved Cuju (ancient Chinese football).
Regular exercise is necessary.
Emperor Huizong's reaction was also quite swift.
Seeing that Zhao Yuan was about to pull the trigger...
Zhao Ji didn't even think about it.
He then grabbed Gao Qiu, who was shouting loudly beside him, and...
They stood in front of him.
"Shh..."
Accompanied by the sound of crossbow bolts piercing the air,
The crossbow bolts shot by Zhao Yuan
It pierced straight through Gao Qiu's chest.
"His Majesty……"
Gao Qiu's face was filled with disbelief.
He stared blankly at the panicked Zhao Ji.
He couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
It immediately stained Zhao Ji's clothes red.
Seeing that the arrows from the crossbows had missed Zhao Ji
Without a second thought, Zhao Yuan took out the dagger from the hidden compartment.
He lunged at Zhao Ji.
"Help! Save the Emperor!"
Zhao Ji shouted desperately,
While exerting force,
He pushed the still-breathing Gao Qiu toward Zhao Yuan...

Chapter Four: Self-Strategy to Win Over Li Shishi
"Pfft!"
He was forced into Gao Qiu's service against his will.
It crashed directly into the dagger in Zhao Yuan's hand.
If I had just been shot in the chest,
He might still survive.
Now, after being stabbed in the abdomen with a dagger...
Gao Qiu had no chance of survival.
At this time,
Thanks to Gao Qiu's delaying tactics,
Zhao Ji had already crawled to the doorway using both his hands and feet.
The two eunuchs outside the house
They heard the commotion and ran in after opening the door.
One of the eunuchs saw that Zhao Ji was covered in blood.
He was so frightened that his legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground.
Another eunuch shouted, "Your Majesty!"
Then he pulled Zhao Ji up.
He ran towards the wing room on the right side of the courtyard.
There is a secret passage there that leads directly to the imperial city.
After Zhao Yuan pushed Gao Qiu away,
All that could be seen now were their backs.
He was about to grab the dagger and chase after them.
At this moment, a system notification suddenly sounded in Zhao Yuan's ear.
"With the mission completed, the rebel system has been activated. The mission reward, the Heavenly Dipper and Earthly Fiends Diagram, will now be issued."
Is that all there is to the task?
Zhao Yuan was stunned for a moment.
He didn't even bother to check the rewards issued by the system.
Instead, he immediately turned around.
He strode towards Li Shishi.
Task 1 has been completed.
Next, of course, is task two.
Li Shishi has been kidnapped!
......
Now, Li Shishi just now,
Watching Zhao Yuan respectfully telling stories to Zhao Ji and Gao Qiu,
A look of sorrow appeared on her face.
Although she knew she had fallen into prostitution
They were already no longer in control of their own lives.
But she was a sixteen-year-old girl.
She still harbors longing for love.
Having spent the past six months with Zhao Yuan
Li Shishi had already secretly fallen in love with him.
She enjoyed listening to Zhao Yuan talk about the wonderful world outside.
I enjoy listening to Zhao Yuan tell those fantastical stories.
These are all Li Shishis who have been trapped in cages since childhood and unable to escape.
What one desires.
Just because she fell in love with Zhao Yuan,
So these two days,
Li Shishi watched as Zhao Yuan saw that she was about to be seduced by someone else.
But there was no reaction at all.
That's why she was heartbroken and why she didn't give Zhao Yuan a friendly look.
But everything that just happened,
But it instantly stunned Li Shishi.
Although Gao Qiu's wounded and bloodied appearance was exceptionally terrifying.
But after Li Shishi's initial shock,
Then,
A sudden surge of joy welled up inside me.
Big Brother, he told me about the matter of me being combed up.
They were definitely not indifferent!
He did it for me,
How dare they defy the world!
To assassinate the current emperor!
......
Here, Zhao Yuan held a blood-stained dagger.
He walked quickly towards Li Shishi.
I was just about to threaten her into leaving with me,
But unexpectedly, just as they got close,
met free
