The prince is very cruel

"It's raining so hard, how can it be late? There's no need to rush this time."

Guan Ning frowned: "But I have to leave early tomorrow morning."

"It's okay, I'll call the doctor home. I'm not a child." Lou Xinyue said considerately.

Guan Ning curled his lips: "Okay then."

"If you have good news, be the first to tell me."

Lou Xinyue blew out the candle: "Got it."

"Well, what are you doing? You're pressing my hair."

"Where did you put your hands? They weren't washed!"

"Guan Ning, try moving again!"

"you!"

"..."

The next day.

The heavy rain has stopped, but it is still a very cloudy day with dark clouds blocking the entire sky.

Guan Ning went out early and arrived at the Ministry of Justice. Yuwen Hongdu immediately came to greet him.

"Everything is ready."

"I have mobilized another sixty experts from the Imperial Palace, totaling a hundred people. I have also informed the Imperial Guards that if any movement occurs, they will immediately block the four major city gates."

Guan Ning nodded: "Well done."

"But now, there is still a problem. Zhou Chaoxian has been keeping an eye on us." Yuwen Hongdu frowned.

Guan Ning looked into the distance and saw that hundreds of officers and soldiers from the Ministry of Justice had already gathered, and Zhou Chaoxian was also there.

"Let him follow."

"It's useless to follow him. I don't believe he would dare to help the assassin in public in the capital."

"I'll personally watch over Lu Dan for a while. You should try to keep as many of your men alive as possible."

Yuwen Hongdu nodded: "Okay!"

Guan Ning walked quickly into the warehouse with his hands behind his back, and passed by Zhou Chaoxian. Their eyes met, one calm and the other full of hatred.

No matter how this matter ends, the conflict between the two is irreconcilable.

An hour later, the team officially set off.

The officers and soldiers from the Ministry of Justice led the way, and including the imperial guards, the team of two hundred people in total could be said to be a huge force. The people on the street avoided them and talked about it.

Moreover, as the team moved forward, more and more people gathered to watch along the way, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty of escort and the possible casualties.

Guan Ning frowned on horseback. He didn't want the gods to fight and the mortals to suffer.

"Shut up!"

"Master Zhou, have your people organize the people to leave. If this continues, more and more people will come. It would be bad if something uncontrollable happened."

Zhou Chaoxian's face was cold and he refused directly: "Master Guan, you can also let your people do it."

"My order was to escort the assassin into the palace, not to disperse the people. What if the assassin dies by then?"

Guan Ning sneered in his heart. This old guy is really good at turning the tables.

Just when he was about to do something, suddenly, there was a commotion among the crowd.

Wow! !

Dang Dang Dang...

A large amount of copper coins were thrown and scattered all over the ground.

"money!"

"It's copper coins!"

"Mine, it's mine!"

"Grab it quickly!"

In an instant, the scene was in chaos, with people rushing to loot, and it was like a mess.

Many people even fought in the street for copper coins. Guan Ning had a bad feeling.

"Whoa!" The horses neighed, and the entire escort team had to stop and was surrounded by people from all directions on the long street.

"Step aside!"

"Get out of the way, the police are investigating a case, leave immediately!" The palace guards kept shouting, trying to drive the people away, but there were too many copper coins on the ground, and everyone was scrambling for them, so no one listened at all.

The frantic scramble frightened the horses and disrupted their formation.

Guan Ning's expression suddenly tightened.

It’s here so soon?

He originally thought that the person behind the scenes would at least wait until the team entered the Central Axis Street, because it was well-connected and more suitable for retreat. However, he did not expect that the other party would not only come quickly and take action as soon as they left the Ministry of Justice, but also use so many tricks.

"Hey!!"

It seemed that the palace guards were about to be dispersed.

"Yuwen Hongdu!" Guan Ning roared.

Yuwen Hongdu turned around but didn't have time to react.

Bang bang bang!

The doors and windows on both sides of the street suddenly exploded, and a dense array of ink-black bows and arrows came out.

Although the street is very wide, it is only less than ten meters. At this distance, it is almost a living target for bows and arrows.

Guan Ning's pupils shrank!

"Be careful!!"

His shout was earth-shattering, and he jumped up from the horse. With a kick of his toes, the bamboo poles on the street flew up and shot into the windows on the street like a spear.
