C531: His life must be settled by me.
"You of the Xue Family, don't spout nonsense here. Not long ago, the Emperor said that he would appoint me as the Crown Prince after the Mid-Autumn Festival," said Nan Qi.
As Nan Qi finished speaking, two ministers who supported him also spoke up.
"The Emperor did indeed say those words. We were present at the time, so it's certainly not fabricated."
At the same time, Nan Rui had already instructed the private soldiers he brought with him to be prepared to take action at any moment.
As for the Xue Prime Minister's side, it was no exception. With the Emperor's whereabouts unknown in the palace, it was impossible to extract the information about the Imperial Seal from him.
Having been in control of the court for a long time, they feared any changes and the Xue Prime Minister could only go all out to seize power.
Since he had made his choice, the two princes could not be spared.
Almost simultaneously with Nan Rui, the Xue Prime Minister gestured to the troops behind him, signaling them to prepare for battle.
Upon seeing the Xue Prime Minister, Mo Jiuye immediately recalled the vile deeds he had committed against the Mo Family, and his fury burned uncontrollably.
He Zhiran felt the same way and gently pushed Mo Jiuye's arm.
"Husband, let's deal with this man today."
Their position was elevated, and the distance from the Xue Prime Minister was quite far, at least five hundred meters away.
At such a distance, the best weapon to ensure a kill with one shot would be a sniper rifle.
He Zhiran had just taken out a sniper rifle from her spatial dimension when Mo Jiuye took it from her.
"Ranran, let me do it."
He Zhiran could sense that Mo Jiuye's tone lacked any warmth at the moment, even giving off a chilling feeling, indicating his deep hatred for the Xue Prime Minister.
Originally, He Zhiran didn't intend to let Mo Jiuye take the shot since she was more skilled with sniper rifles.
After all, such an assassination attempt would only have one opportunity, whether in modern or ancient times.
Furthermore, the noise from a sniper rifle would be loud, and after firing, it would undoubtedly attract everyone's attention toward their direction.
Therefore, whether the assassination of the Xue Prime Minister succeeded or not, He Zhiran planned to hide with Mo Jiuye in her spatial dimension after the attempt until it was safer to come out.
"Husband, you..." She was about to question his capability, but Mo Jiuye gave her a resolute look before she could finish.
"The treacherous Xue has an unforgivable feud with my Mo Family. I must be the one to take his life."
Moreover, in Mo Jiuye's heart, his wife was a delicate young lady from a noble family, unsuitable for such violent tasks.
Of course, the blame for her previous experiences lay solely on his inability as a husband.
Thinking about the Xue Family's actions against the Mo Family, He Zhiran realized that Mo Jiuye would not be satisfied if he didn't take the shot himself.
"Alright, don't be nervous. Use the scope to aim precisely before firing."
However, He Zhiran had underestimated Mo Jiuye's enthusiasm for these weapons.
