The Kingdom of Marriage: My Stunning Empress

He deliberately glanced at Murong Suheng, without saying anything, but continued to take Lou Xingnan and chase in the direction where Narshida was going.

On the one hand, Murong Suheng was curious, and on the other hand, he also wanted to follow the wishes of his family elders and get close to Han Zhuo so that he could get closer to the Crown Princess.

So he rode his horse and caught up with Han Zhuo and the other two.

Murong Suheng was no fool, and he quickly realized that Han Zhuo, Lou Xingnan, and the small group of elite soldiers behind them were obviously chasing the black shadow he had just seen accidentally.

Therefore, Murong Suheng specifically said to Han Zhuo: "General Han, I ride a horse and can run faster than you. I will go ahead and see where the assassin has fled to."

After saying this, Murong Suheng rode his horse forward.

When Han Zhuo and Lou Xingnan saw Murong Suheng again, he had already dismounted.

At this time, he was standing at the entrance of the alley not far from Yunmeng Pavilion.

Murong Suheng quickly stopped Han Zhuo and said to him, "General Han, I saw with my own eyes that female assassin escape into Yunmeng Pavilion."

"Let's rush in now and pull out that female assassin!"

Han Zhuo's next major direction is to continuously weaken the Li family's influence in the imperial city.

He originally wanted to start with the merchants controlled by the Li family, but the appearance of Narshida tonight gave Han Zhuo a new idea.

He planned to take advantage of this opportunity to directly destroy Yunmeng Pavilion.

Because according to Narshida, Yunmeng Pavilion not only brings huge financial income to the Li family every month.

At the same time, it is also the Li family's killer organization responsible for collecting intelligence and assassinating important figures.

As long as Yunmeng Pavilion is destroyed, it will be equivalent to covering one eye of the Li family in the imperial city!

Now, with Murong Suheng as the one fanning the flames, Han Zhuo intends to make the most of this matter!

So, he said to Murong Suheng, "Master Murong, your home is close to here. Could you please call your guards over to surround Yunmeng Pavilion?"

"This assassin is incredibly bold. He actually dared to sneak into the East Palace to kill me tonight. This means there must be a mastermind behind him. This person might be in Yunmeng Pavilion!"

For Murong Suheng, this is a good opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.

Firstly, he could get close to Han Zhuo, and secondly, he could get involved in the Li family's business!

Murong Suheng quickly said, "My guards are totally useless."

"Just now, a captain of the Jinwu Guards passed by with a group of soldiers. I know him. I'll call them over and surround Yunmeng Pavilion!"

Having said that, Murong Suheng quickly jumped on his horse and galloped away in a hurry.

Lou Xingnan said to Han Zhuo, "General Han, Yunmeng Pavilion belongs to the Li family. If we rush in rashly, I'm afraid..."

After Lou Xingnan said this, Han Zhuo couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why, are you scared?"

A look of determination suddenly appeared on Lou Xingnan's square face.

He said, "General Han, please don't misunderstand me. What I meant was that the Li family has great influence in the court. If we make a big fuss tonight, I'm afraid they will take the opportunity to cause trouble."

"The Crown Princess has just entered the Eastern Palace, and her foundation is unstable. The Li family is already aggressive."

"If something like this happens again, I'm afraid the Crown Princess will have to face criticism from many officials tomorrow."

Hearing this, Han Zhuo couldn't help but chuckle and reached out to pat Lou Xingnan on the shoulder.

The reason why he led Narshida to the place where Lou Xingnan was guarding tonight was because he was attracted by this characteristic of Lou Xingnan.

Han Zhuo and Yang Pan'er were weak in the palace and even in the entire court.

Therefore, Han Zhuo brought Diao Meiniang to the Eastern Palace. On the one hand, she helped Yang Pan'er manage the eunuchs and palace maids in the Eastern Palace.

On the other hand, Diao Meiniang would use her unique methods to collect all kinds of information inside the palace.

Among them, Diao Meiniang selected several people who were usually impartial and cautious in enforcing the law.

Among them, Lou Xingnan was the first person Han Zhuo decided to win over.

On the one hand, it is because Lou Xingnan has outstanding personal abilities.

On the other hand, Lou Xingnan was from a poor family and had no connection with either the Murong family or the Li family.

He has reached where he is today entirely on his own.

But at the same time, because he does not lean on either side, and often offends many powerful people because of his official duties.

As a result, his official career reached its peak.

If he didn't have the support of a noble person, he would have been a small captain guarding the city all his life!

Han Zhuo also understood from Lou Xingnan's words just now that Lou Xingnan was worried that Han Zhuo would do something wrong and then let Yang Paner clean up the mess for him.

But Han Zhuo had already made a plan. He said, "If this assassin dares to kill me today, he will attack the Crown Princess tomorrow!"

"Whether it's this assassin or the mastermind behind him, we must not let them go!"

"If you don't dare to go, I'll do it myself."

While Han Zhuo and Lou Xingnan were talking, Murong Suheng had already rushed over with at least two hundred Jinwu Guards!

Murong Suheng seemed extremely excited. He said, "General Han, we are here!"

Han Zhuo waved his hand and said, "Have the Jinwu Guards surround Yunmeng Pavilion, and we'll go in and arrest them!"

After saying that, Han Zhuo, wearing only his shorts and with his rock-hard body naked, strode into Yunmeng Pavilion.

During this period of time, there were still many customers enjoying themselves in Yunmeng Pavilion.

However, there were relatively fewer people in the hall.

After all, it was already this time, and the guests had already chosen the women they liked and went to their rooms to have fun.

There were only a few people left in the hall, and the brothel owner Li Jiuniang was not there either.

When Han Zhuo and his men rushed in, only two old men came forward to ask questions.

Before Turtle Master could even open his mouth, Murong Suheng rushed forward and violently kicked him to the ground. "Tell me! Where did you hide the assassin?"

Murong Suheng shouted very loudly, and his explosive movements just met Han Zhuo's requirements.

Especially the captain of the Jinwu Guard brought by Murong Suheng, a strong and muscular man with a head full of muscles.

As a member of the Murong family, this guy probably never comes to Yunmeng Pavilion on weekdays.

So, as soon as he came in, he acted like a troublemaker, flipping tables and chasing people away, instantly attracting everyone's attention!

Han Zhuo took Lou Xingnan and quickly passed through the archway, entered the corridor behind, and headed to the backyard.

Murong Suheng was not stupid either. He immediately brought his men and quietly followed Han Zhuo.

The backyard of Yunmeng Pavilion is for wealthy young men and gentlemen to enjoy themselves. There are many separate courtyards or magnificent attics here.

Han Zhuo passed by the courtyards and walked quickly towards the attic next to an artificial lake.

Lou Xingnan has been following Han Zhuo, on the one hand to protect Han Zhuo's personal safety, and on the other hand to prevent Han Zhuo from being too reckless and causing the situation to escalate.

But at the same time, he was also a little curious about Han Zhuo's straight walk towards the attic.

He and Han Zhuo chased her all the way here. Although they could always see the black shadow falling into Yunmeng Pavilion, they had no idea where she was hiding in the end.

But Han Zhuo was so confident that he walked straight to the attic, which made Lou Xingnan suspicious.

However, before he could think carefully, Han Zhuo had already pulled him and quietly came to the attic.

At this time, the lights were on on the second floor of the attic, and one could hear people talking inside, or to be more precise, cursing!

"What! Failed!?"

"You useless piece of shit! Didn't you say you were Yunmeng Pavilion's top assassin? How come you can't even kill a fool?!"
