The already tattered red clothed young master was hit in the chest by another thunderbolt bullet. The gunpowder exploded and sent him tumbling a few times. He flew over the high courtyard wall and with a "pa" sound, he landed like a dead fish in front of the guards holding torches.
"What is this thing?"
"It looks like a person!"
"It's most likely an assassin!"
"Capture him!"
The guards immediately swarmed forward and quickly tied up the red-robed young master.
The red clothed young master was dizzy from the explosions. Only when he found out that he had been tied up like a dumpling did he come back to his senses.
His eyes went wide. He couldn't believe that he had actually been captured. He had actually fallen into the hands of a group of guards that were dumber than pigs?
This was a great humiliation!
This was simply a great humiliation!
His eyes rolled back, and he actually fainted from anger.
The guards didn't care if he really fainted or not. In any case, this fellow was as black as a charcoal and didn't look like a good person at first glance. He had also flown out of the empress' palace, so if he wasn't an assassin, then what was he!
Although they couldn't understand how the three thunderous sounds had come from Guan Osprey Palace, if they caught the assassin, then it would be a great merit.
At this time, Su Jin rushed over with several guards. When she saw the red clothed young master being tied up like a dumpling by the guards, she was shocked.
"What happened? Who is this fellow? "
All of the guards recognized Su Jin, so one of them immediately replied respectfully, "Reporting to Aunty Su Jin, this fellow flew out of Guan Osprey Palace. We could tell he wasn't a good person at first glance and was definitely an assassin who had broken into the palace, so we immediately took him down. However, before we could interrogate him, he fainted."
"Then what were those three loud noises just now? Where are the emperor and the empress? "
Su Jin looked at the red clothed young master. She didn't pay much attention to this fellow who was darker than a charcoal and worse off than a beggar. What she cared about the most was Mo Chuan and Chen Ning's safety.
The guards looked at each other in blank dismay and then lowered their heads.
"We didn't have the emperor's orders, so we didn't dare break into Guan Osprey Palace. We don't know the situation of the emperor and the empress."
Su Jin couldn't help stomping her feet and secretly cursing: What a bunch of idiots!
"I'll go in and take a look."
She went forward and knocked on the door. Who would have thought that with a gentle push, the palace doors would open from the inside.
Su Jin was shocked. When she looked over, she saw Chen Ning standing in front of the door, looking at her with a calm expression. She was instantly pleasantly surprised.
"Empress, are you alright?"
"I'm fine. Thank you, Aunt Sujin, for your concern. Did you catch the assassin?"
Chen Ning had already put away her wooden spear. Her hands were empty as she stood there with a calm expression.
Su Chen for Chen.
Su Jin replied. She couldn't help looking over Chen Ning again. She was still a bit worried as she asked, "Empress, what happened just now? Is the emperor? Is he fine? "
"His Majesty is fine. Aunt Sujin, did the Empress Dowager send you? Was it because the noise just now was too loud and alerted the Empress Dowager? It's all my fault for making too much noise while catching the assassin. It won't happen again. Go and report to the Empress Dowager that His Majesty is fine and the assassin has been caught. "
Chen said.
Hearing this, Su Jin and the guards behind her almost dropped their jaws.
