At the second update, the gate of the Inner Guard Office suddenly opened, and a carriage that was covered with thick black cloth drove out from it. The wheels were very wide, and three strong horses were pulled and pulled, together with more than twenty inner guards who were guarding it, ran out of the Inner Guard Office. The carriage and war horses were terrifying, and they rushed on the wide streets.

It also alarmed all forces lurking in Quanshanfang. Countless men in black appeared from all corners, staring at the carriages that were moving away. Some people began to run on the walls and roofs, trying to catch up with the carriages. Several carrier pigeons also flew up from a corner and sent away the emergency news that had just happened.

The gate of Quanshanfang was controlled by the inner guards. Without calling the gate, the gate was opened directly, and the carriage basically did not stop. Under the tight escort of dozens of cavalrymen, they rushed out of the gate.

A captain of Wan Guojun's subordinate recognized the carriage, which was the iron frame prison carriage specially used by the inner guard to transport important criminals. The entire carriage was made of fine iron, which was very heavy, so three strong horses needed to pull it. He immediately said to a soldier: "Go and report to Commander Wan quickly, the target has appeared!"

The soldier turned over his horse and ran away from the gate.

At the same time, Zhao Yin also recognized the leader of the inner guard warrior, Li Zhen, the deputy commander of the inner guard, so the key assassin should be in the carriage.

The special carriage and inner guard warriors had already arrived at Tianjie and ran south along the spacious and empty Tianjie. They did not leave the city through Dingding Gate, but came to the thick door on the side.

"Open the city gate quickly, and there will be an emergency official service in the inner guards!" Li Zhen took out the gold medal and shouted sternly.

The officer on duty in the city recognized the gold medal of the inner guard in Li Zhen's hand. He did not dare to neglect and immediately ordered the soldiers to open the city gate. The carriage and the inner guard warrior left the city gate and drove northeast.

Soon, Lai Junchen, Wan Guojun, Wu Furong and others also led their subordinates to rush out of Houzai and chased them northeast along the unique track marks on the ground.

In just half an hour, several powerful figures came out of the Houzai Gate in Luoyang City one after another. The tension in it surprised the officers on duty, not knowing what major happened tonight.

...........

Before dawn, Wu Sansi got up early and prepared to go to court. He put on his court suit and sat on the soft couch and was restless to drink a bowl of ginseng tea.

His third son Wu Chonglie brought him an important information. Last night, Li Zhen led an inner guard cavalry to the outside of the city, and Wu Chengsi, Wan Guojun and Lai Junchen's subordinates also rushed out of the city.

Wu Sansi immediately realized that the person Li Zhen took away must be the assassin who missed the net, which made Wu Sansi really annoyed. He gave the assassin to Li Zhen in hopes that he could hand over the witness to Lai Junchen, let Lai Junchen overthrow Wu Chengsi and completely eradicate his confidant.

Unexpectedly, Li Zhen was unwilling to hand over the key assassin. If he had known that he would have been better to hand over it directly to Lai Junchen, why bother to take this turn?

"What is Li Zhen doing?" Wu Sansi cursed in annoyance.

"Father, do you want the child to take some people to join the hunting?" Wu Chonglie was eager to try.

Wu Chonglie was about twenty years old and tall and brave. Wu Sansi gave his private warrior "Military General Hall" to him.

Wu Chonglie had nothing to do in the past or two years, and he felt uncomfortable. Finally, there was a hunting battle involving several factions, and Wu Chonglie didn't want to miss this opportunity.

Wu Sansi regretted giving the person to Li Zhen. It would be best if his son could take the assassin back. Although Mr. Ming suggested that he should not participate in the assassin again, Wu Sansi did not listen completely, especially when he realized that handing the assassin to Li Zhen was a mistake, he was anxious to take the assassin back.

Wu Sansi pondered for a moment and said, "I guess Li Zhen should have taken people to Mingxiu Villa. Don't bring too many people. Twenty or thirty people are enough. Don't take risks and wait for an opportunity."

Wu Chonglie was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "The child understands that he will never let his father down!"

Wu Chonglie was afraid that his father would regret it, so he immediately turned around and ran to Dianji's subordinates. At this time, Wu Sansi suddenly felt that he should discuss it with Mr. Ming first?

But he just hesitated for a moment and still didn't want to send someone to find Mr. Ming. He couldn't rely on Mr. Ming in everything. He could make decisions on such small things.

A quarter of an hour later, Wu Chonglie led more than 20 martial arts knights to run out from the side door and headed towards Houzai Gate. On the wall of a house opposite the Liang Palace, a black figure appeared, and he quickly disappeared from the wall.

...........

It was already dawn and the morning court had dispersed. Shangguan Wan'er quickly walked towards her official room. She was still a distance away from the official room. She saw Zhao Qiuniang paced back and forth in front of the official room from afar. She immediately realized that something important must have happened.

Shangguan Wan'er walked up quickly and said with a smile: "How long have Qiu Niang been waiting?"

"When the humble post comes, the court meeting has just begun."

"It will take more than half an hour, so you will have to wait for a long time."

Before Zhao Qiuniang could speak, Shangguan Wan'er pointed to the inner room and said, "Let's talk inside!"

The two walked into the room, Shangguan Wan'er winked at Xiao'e, and Xiao'e immediately closed the door, "Tell me! What's new?" Shangguan Wan'er sat down and asked.

"General Li has transferred the person to Mingxiu Villa. This is the note he gave to his servants."

Zhao Qiuniang handed a note to Shangguan Wan'er. Shangguan Wan'er took the note and looked at it, lowered her head and pondered for a moment and asked, "Does Wu Sansi move there?"

"This is also something that the humble official wants to report to the servants. Before dawn today, Wu Chonglie led twenty-five martial generals knights to leave the Liang Palace. When the news from the city gate was heard, Wu Chonglie led his men toward Mingxiu Villa."

"Where is Princess Taiping?"

"Twenty people from Taiping Prefecture warriors and inner guards each rushed to Mingxiu Villa under the leadership of Wan Guojun."

"It seems that all the gods and immortals have arrived!"

Shangguan Wan'er sneered sarcastically and stood up and said, "You wait for a moment, and I'll go."

She left her official room and walked all the way. She soon came to Wu Zetian's imperial study room. After waiting for a moment, an eunuch came out and laughed and said, "Your Majesty, please come in!"

Shangguan Wan'er walked into the imperial study room. Wu Zetian was reviewing several important memorials. When she saw Shangguan Wan'er coming in, she put down her pen and smiled: "Wan'er has any important matter to come to me?"

Shangguan Wan'er bowed and whispered: "Wan'er has an important thing to report to Your Majesty, which is related to Wan'er's assassination in Shaanxi County."

She presented the arrow letter that Li Zhen received to Wu Zetian. Wu Zetian glanced at the arrow letter in the box and frowned, "What's going on?"

"This happened yesterday afternoon. Someone shot the letter into Commander Li's official room. Commander Li conducted an investigation and found out his eyes."

Wu Zetian's face suddenly became solemn, "Tell me clearly what happened. If you talk about it in detail, you must not hide it at all."

......

Mingxiu Villa is located in the northeast of Luoyang, close to Beimang Mountain, about ten miles away from Luoyang City. It was originally a royal manor of the Sui Dynasty. After several twists and turns, Wu Zetian finally rewarded it to Shangguan Wan'er.

Mingxiu Villa does not occupy a large area, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful scenery. The villa is full of century-old trees, and a delicate building is hidden in it. There is a wide and flat race track on the left side of the villa, which can also be used as a polo training ground.

At this time, in the dense woods around the villa, people in black from time to time could be seen from time to time. On the mountains behind the villa, there were even people watching every move in the villa.

There were more than 20 Shangqing Pavilion warriors in the villa, plus the twenty-five inner guard warriors brought by Li Zhen, as well as more than a dozen servants and maids. There were about 60 people in the villa. They were stationed on the high walls and sentry towers around the villa, holding crossbows and long swords in their hands, and watching the movements around them vigilantly.

In the middle of the villa, there is a seven-story wooden building called Zhaixing Tower. Standing on the top floor, you can see all the scenes around the villa. At this time, Li Zhen stood on the top floor and observed the movements outside the villa through the surrounding windows. As he expected, he used this key assassin as bait to attract all related parties.

Needless to say, Wu Chengsi's Wu family generals, this escaped assassin is the key to the entire assassination case. His accusations will make Wu Chengsi unable to deny it. Only by eliminating this assassin can Wu Chengsi escape this huge trap.

Princess Taiping and Wu Chengsi have a close relationship. Whether she wants to get the best interests or wants to protect Wu Chengsi's alliance, she must take action to grab this key assassin. With this assassin in her hands, Princess Taiping can fully control Wu Chengsi.

Therefore, among the crowds that were peeping, Princess Taiping was the most powerful, including the Taiping Warriors and Wan Guojun's inner guards, all of whom were dispatched.

The second is Lai Junchen's gangster. In fact, Lai Junchen could have reported to Wu Zetian directly and asked Wu Zetian to come and ask her to ask for someone, but Lai Junchen did not do this for only one reason. He had too many selfish thoughts in this case, and Li Zhen even suspected that he wanted to use the assassin and Wu Chengsi for benefits.

As for the assassination in Shaanxi County, Lai Junchen has some ways to deal with it, and a remnant of Xue Huaiyi can be used as the best excuse.

But what surprised Li Zhen was that Wu Sansi's people also came, which was really beyond his expectations. I don't know whether Wu Sansi was unwilling to be lonely or Wu Sansi regretted it and wanted to retake the assassin again. Li Zhen had no idea why, but the appearance of the warrior in the General Hall was the best result that Li Zhen expected.

At this time, Zhang Ran hurriedly walked up and bowed and said, "Master, I have taken my brothers to count the peepers around the manor, about 200 people."

Li Zhen nodded. The other party was not many people, and with this little, they could not get into the manor during the day. They could only look for opportunities at night, but...

Li Zhen's eyes looked into the distance again. He stood high and looked far away. With his super-human eyesight, the situation he was expecting had already faintly appeared in the distance.
