Originally, Zhao Douan wasn't sure how Prince Jing would make a move against him.
Or whether he really dared to make a move at all.
But when the "spy" Wu Ling sent that secret letter, he understood everything.
At present, the court and the Eight Princes were only just beginning to conflict, and neither side was ready to tear face.
So even if Prince Jing wanted to show off his muscles, he wouldn't act personally. Therefore, the best candidate to bear the stigma of "assassinating Zhao Douan" was undoubtedly the Kuangfu Society.
It just so happened that the cooperation between Prince Jing Mansion and Zhuang Xiaocheng was no secret.
Today, how many people would come to kill him?
Zhao Douan couldn't be certain, but he didn't mind taking extra precautions to save his life before reaching Yansuo Lake.
For example, in the past few days, he acquired a promise of assistance from Pei Niannu within the "Six Chapters Scripture" in exchange for stories.
