The Emperor pondered for a moment and said, "If someone disguises themselves during the court assembly, I'm afraid those courtiers will notice something's wrong. In such a large Imperial Palace, assassins have actually infiltrated. How did these assassins enter the city? How do they know about the secret passage? Perhaps they even have ears within the court. Once something seems off, those assassins might not be fooled."
The Emperor suddenly called out, "Xiao Lin, Yun Tian, come in."
Xiao Lin and the Guard Commander entered.
"Pass on the order, inform those courtiers that there will be no court assembly today. Ministers of rank three and above should proceed to the Imperial Study Room to discuss important matters."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Yun Tian, how were those assassins' martial arts skills last night? If you were to go one-on-one, could you take them down?"
"Your Majesty, I can."
