After taking a look at the guard, Zhang Heng immediately pulled the knife out of the King of Western Shu, then jumped out of the window and escaped.
The guard originally wanted to chase after him, but after hearing Zhang Heng shout "Catch the assassin", he thought something was wrong, so he turned around and fled out of the hall.
After a while, Zhang Heng led nearly a hundred guards back to the palace. After taking a look at the ruler of Western Shu, he shouted: "Your Majesty has been assassinated. Quickly order the palace gates to be sealed and the assassin to be captured!"
"Dong! Dong! Dong!" The bell rang and spread throughout the palace. Then the palace gates were closed. All the guards in the palace gathered in front of the king's bedroom, obeying Zhang Heng's orders and searching for the assassin who killed the king of Western Shu.
Everyone in the palace knew that Zhang Heng and the king were like brothers, so no one would suspect that he killed the king.
