The palace was still brightly lit at night, and teams of forbidden troops patrolled across the palace to keep the palace airtight.

In the bedroom.

There are two piles of memorials on the desk. Zhou Yuniang is sitting behind the desk, concentrating on reviewing them.

Chen Yu was at the side: "Madam, it's already late, do you think they will really come tonight?"

"I don't know. Their actions this time are very secretive. The news we got is that they will take action within three days, but on which day exactly?

Zhou Yuniang put down her writing brush and stretched gently.

"Hey, those people really don't stop for a day."

Chen Yu said angrily: "First the fifth prince, then the sixth prince, then the third prince and the eighth prince, and now even the second prince has taken action. Do they have to kill you?"

Ever since Sima Hongyi ascended the throne and Zhou Yuniang intervened in the government affairs, the government has never stopped assassinating her.

Most of the main people behind the assassination were members of the royal Sima family.

After all, ministers can care less who is in power.

No matter who has the final say in this court, they still should be officials and do what they should do. There is no essential difference.

But not the royal family.

This world belongs to their Sima family, how could it be the turn of a woman with a foreign surname to call the shots?

Since Sima Hongyi, a foolish emperor, cannot be the emperor, then another member of the royal family of the Sima family should be replaced.

Zhou Yuniang smiled: "Of course the people of the Sima family cannot be willing to let me, a foreigner, sit on top of their heads, so it is normal for them to want to kill me."

"I just don't know, what experts did they invite this time? Haha, in the past, our wings were not full, so we were very tolerant to them."

"But this time is their last chance. If they can't kill me anymore, I will take action against them."

Zhou Yuniang's eyes gradually turned cold: "Chen Yu, are our people ready?"

"We are ready. As long as we deal with this assassination, our people will launch a counterattack. When the time comes, some people will have to pay the price."

Chen Yu also said coldly.

Suddenly, Zhou Yuniang looked out the window: "Haha, it seems we don't have to wait any longer, they are already here."

Before she finished speaking, hundreds of masked men in black suddenly appeared on the roofs of various palaces in the palace.

"He actually used hundreds of innate warriors, dozens of masters at the master level, the second prince... ah no, now he is King Yu, he is really willing to spend a lot of money."

"But these people alone can't kill me."

Zhou Yuniang raised her hand and said: "Let our people take action. These people are not the main force in today's assassination. Force out their trump cards as soon as possible."

"Yes, concubine."

Chen Yu waved towards the darkness outside the window.

The next moment, thousands of figures rushed out from all over the palace, directly stopping all the masked men in black.

The two sides fought fiercely in the palace, with majestic Qi surging everywhere and making a huge noise.

Seeing those black-clothed and masked men being beaten, they were retreating steadily.

Suddenly a figure appeared at the door of the palace.

It was a white-haired old man with cold eyes, and he opened the palace door directly.

"Queen, please come and die!" the white-haired old man said in a cold tone.

"You are actually the Kaishanhou ranked fourth on the Heavenly Ranking. I didn't expect that you, a mighty Martial Saint, would also be invited by King Yu?"

Zhou Yuniang said calmly.

"I can't help it. The price offered by King Yu is high enough, so I can't help but be tempted."

The white-haired old man walked into the palace and walked towards Zhou Yuniang step by step.

But facing the powerful Martial Saint, Zhou Yuniang didn't show any nervousness on her face. She just smiled and said: "Kaishan Hou, do you think you can kill me today?"

"Haha, I think that my cultivation level is much higher than that of the empress. If I want to kill the empress, I should be able to catch her easily."

"Really? But I don't think so."

Suddenly, the white-haired old man stopped and said coldly: "General Qi Sha, I didn't expect you to surrender to the queen. It seems I made a miscalculation."

I don't know when, but a middle-aged man with black hair was standing at the door of the palace.

Although the black-haired middle-aged man is further away from Zhou Yuniang than the white-haired old man.

Once the white-haired old man kills Zhou Yuniang, the black-haired middle-aged man will have no time to save her.

But at this moment, the white-haired old man did not dare to take action.

Because he knew very well that he could indeed kill Zhou Yuniang, but at the same time, the defense behind him would definitely be empty.

In that case, the black-haired middle-aged man would kill him at the same time.

"You don't have a chance, come out, let me, the fifth on the heavenly list, meet you, the fourth on the heavenly list, to see if you live up to your reputation?"

The black-haired middle-aged man said coldly.

"Okay, then let me weigh you."

The white-haired old man turned around without hesitation and attacked the black-haired middle-aged man directly.

Immediately, two powerful martial saints also started a fierce battle on the roof of the palace.

Chen Yu breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, General Qisha arrived in time, otherwise we really wouldn't be able to stop Kaishan Hou."

"Mother, the other party's killers have been stopped by us. In today's assassination, they have been defeated, right?"

"not necessarily."

But Zhou Yuniang frowned: "I always feel that today's assassination was a bit too easy to deal with. Prince Yu knew that the palace was heavily guarded, so why did he only send these experts?"

"How many masters are there?" Chen Yu was surprised.

"You don't understand what I mean. Let's put it this way, will you plan an assassination that is destined to fail?"

Zhou Yuniang shook her head and said: "Today's matter is not over yet. Either, King Yu's assassination is just a cover. He is attacking in the east and west, and the real target is not me. Or, he still has masters who have not been dispatched."

"There is also a master, who is it, the Qingyu Sword ranked third on the Heavenly Ranking?"

Chen Yu guessed.

"I'm afraid, it won't be Qingyu Sword, but I hope I'm wrong."

Zhou Yuniang looked solemn.

At this moment, a depressing atmosphere that penetrated people's hearts filled the entire palace, as if the sky was about to fall.

The masters who were fighting on both sides stopped fighting almost at the same time.

Everyone unconsciously looked at the roof opposite the queen's palace.

There, an old man appeared at some point, holding a long sword in his hand.

"You're actually a swordsman?"

Chen Yu's expression changed in shock: "How could this happen? Jian Chi is such a person, how could King Yu invite him here?"

"Perhaps there is some relationship between King Yu and Jian Chi that we don't know about."

"Then what should we do, Madam, the only one in the world who can stand up to the Jian Chi is that Young Master Chu Ying, but he is not in the palace, what should we do?"

"If Jian Chi takes action against you, I'm afraid you will be in really bad luck today. Damn it, why would Jian Chi help King Yu?"

Chen Yu was so anxious that he clenched his fists and was at a loss.

Zhou Yuniang narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "Don't panic, go get the broad-backed heavy sword from the house."

"Yes, concubine."

Chen Yu did not dare to neglect and immediately went back to the house to get the sword.
