"Yeah, you little rascal, you can be really lovable sometimes. But sometimes you can be really annoying too!!!" Cold-Blooded Seventh teased Ye Lang again, and watching Ye Lang roll around on the table, his mood seemed to improve a lot.
"Yes, many people hate me too, and wish I were dead! Also, I'm warning you, don't bully me, I'm not someone to be trifled with!" Ye Lang shouted at Cold-Blooded Seventh.
"So what if I bully you? I'm not afraid you'll bite me... Ah, you little brat, you actually bit me!" Before Cold-Blooded Seventh could finish speaking, Ye Lang bit her finger.
"You said you weren't afraid, so I'll bite you!" Ye Lang said, then took another big bite.
"Ah..." Leng Cold-Blooded Seventh cried out in pain. Even though Ye Lang had shrunk, this bite would still hurt.
"I'll crush you, you little brat..."
"Waaaaah (You try it)..."
"..."
"Stop making a scene, all of you!!" Cold-Blooded Fifth said coldly, and went up to pull Ye Lang down, making him sit down properly.
"Cold-Blooded Seventh, the little fool has already negotiated terms with the Emperor. The day after tomorrow, you and the puppet can enter the royal banquet, and then you can get close to Princess Longji! However, this time it will be a bit troublesome. You will be guarded against, and it will be more difficult to find an opportunity to strike!" Cold-Blooded Fifth said.
"What's going on? Can I go too?" Cold-Blooded Seventh was a little overwhelmed by the news. She didn't even know that Ye Lang had negotiated the terms, let alone that she could go.
At the same time, she was also wondering why she was being guarded against.
"Yes, you can go too. Because this little fool talked nonsense and offended the Emperor, you will become the focus of surveillance. Any movement you make will definitely be discovered!" Cold-Blooded Fifth Jie said.
"... What's the use of that? Why are you always like this, you little brat?!" Cold-Blooded Seventh at Ye Lang again, which angered Ye Lang so much that he took out a needle and prepared to stab him.
"Uh, I was wrong, little one, don't take that needle..." Cold-Blooded Seventh immediately begged for mercy. She was a little afraid of Ye Lang's needles, and she was still apprehensive about them.
This also made her dare not underestimate Ye Lang, who was only a little bit big. Even though he was small, he was still very powerful and could even kill people... Wait...
"Little ones, we're being watched, but you can move. You're so small, no one will notice you. You can easily kill Princess Longji!" Cold-Blooded Seventh only just remembered that there were two little ones on the scene who wouldn't be noticed. With a little trickery, they could kill someone without leaving a trace.
"I know that, I will!" Cold-Blooded Fifth said. "You little fool, just focus on attracting attention, I will kill Princess Longji!"
Cold-Blooded Fifth is naturally the most skilled at this. Such a small demonstration allows her to perfectly display her assassination abilities. No matter how many experts Princess Longji has around her, she can still move freely as if she were in an empty place.
Originally, Cold-Blooded Fifth was the last trump card, the final guarantee arranged by Cold-Blooded Second. Naturally, she wouldn't trust Ye Lang to carry out the mission alone, nor would she think that the mission only required one procedure.
In fact, Cold-Blooded Second was still wondering why the puppets had to be deployed. This was not her arrangement, and she didn't think the puppets would be of any help. It was just that Cold-Blooded First said so, so she had no choice but to make the arrangement.
In addition, she was thinking that if the puppet succeeded, then this time she wouldn't have to sacrifice herself!
Based on the circumstances, whoever goes this time will undoubtedly die after assassinating Princess Longji; that's a certainty.
Killing Princess Longji was already a difficult task, but to kill her and escape unscathed was simply a pipe dream!
Besides arranging the Ye Lang trio as the main focus, Cold-Blooded Second also made many contingency plans. Perhaps to ensure the completion of the mission, she would have these people sacrificed, which was something she had already considered.
This mission was inherently difficult and would come at a great cost!
"Then let's have a good time tomorrow. If we fail the day after tomorrow, we'll leave it to fate!" Cold-Blooded Seventh said with a smile. She was also prepared to sacrifice herself, and everyone who participated in this mission had the same awareness.
"Great! Great!" Ye Lang jumped up immediately, extremely excited.
"..." Cold-Blooded Fifth looked at Ye Lang and thought, "Alright, let's go relax a bit!"
The next day, the trio played around in Dragon City, seemingly forgetting their mission. They ate, drank, and had fun, all paid for by Ye Lang, who was very happy with the gold coins he spent.
Nothing special happened that day; it seemed as if even the heavens had granted them permission to have a happy day.
On this day, Cold-Blooded Seventh seemed to discover why Cold-Blooded Fifth had changed so much, and why Cold-Blooded Fifth had said that this period was the happiest time of his life.
It's simply because she shared similar feelings with Cold-Blooded Fifth; letting go of everything, letting go of the Cold-Blooded Group, seemed to have made them feel more relaxed and at ease...
On the third day, the three of them got ready early in the morning. After Ye Lang was scolded as a little pervert, he helped the Puppet Girl put on the white dress and prepared to attend the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet.
As the three of them stepped outside, they saw that the streets were much more lively than usual, filled with people, and that the streets were dressed in a magnificent new outfit.
A festive atmosphere emanated from every corner, making everyone and everything feel joyful.
Today is the Empress Dowager's birthday. Everyone in the Vermilion Bird Empire likes and loves her, and it's as if they are celebrating with their own family member.
However, a deadly threat lurks beneath this joyous occasion, which may disrupt the birthday celebration and sadden the birthday celebrant.
Princess Longji was also one of the Empress Dowager's favorite granddaughters. As such, Princess Longji would be summoned by the Empress Dowager every year, even if she was busy in her territory, she would still make sure to come.
These are all unknowns, because these are all things that haven't happened yet!
Before leaving home, Cold-Blooded Seventh had prepared a carriage, only to find that there was no need to prepare one at all, as the Imperial Palace had already sent a carriage.
This is not a privilege not everyone receives. Even if invited by the emperor, there would be no special carriage to pick them up. This makes it seem strange that Lady Lei Di would receive such treatment.
The real reason is something no one knows, and no one would have thought that Vermilion Bird Emperor sent people to pick up Lady Lei Di to prevent her from having any ulterior motives.
If Ye Lang knew the reason, would he regret it?
