In Le'an Prefecture, a man stood under the shade of a tree outside the Han Dynasty.
The black night clothes made him almost blend into the shade of the trees around him, and his face was covered by a black cloth handkerchief. He only had two eyes. He looked around and then looked not far away.
, the six-foot-high wall of the Han Palace.
The faint moonlight shines on the whitewashed wall, giving off a hint of coolness even in the warm night.
The dark shadow under the shade of the tree is none other than Liu Rufeng.
In the past few days, after joint investigation by Jinyiwei and Dongchang, the news was obtained that Dingxi Hou was hiding in the Han Dynasty Palace as a servant.
The order from the factory owner Lin Shangli was to kill the Marquis of Dingxi at all costs.
Reaching out to wipe the knife on her waist, Liu Rufeng took a deep breath and tiptoed towards the courtyard wall.
Although he was expelled from the capital by the emperor, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse.
It is still unknown to Liu Rufeng how many guards there are in the Han Palace and how powerful they are.
After Xiao Chen came to chop off his right hand, Liu Rufeng didn't know whether Zhu Gaoxu had recruited martial arts masters to protect him or whether he had set up mechanisms in the palace.
At this point, even if the palace is full of swords and fire, he must go in.
Even if you can't find Dingxi Hou, you should at least get a feel for the reality of the palace.
If you can scare Marquis Dingxi out of the palace, it will be easier for you to intercept and kill him outside.
Having made up her mind, Liu Rufeng took a deep breath and jumped onto the wall.
He squatted down and leaned tightly against the wall, carefully looking at the layout of the yard.
He looked from the lit corridor in the distance, to the nearby houses, to the small square next to the house.
His eyes suddenly narrowed, and he stood up, no longer leaning against the wall.
In the small square, I don't know when five or six figures stood.
They all had sneers on their faces, looking like they were convinced Liu Rufeng was convinced.
Several people were carrying bright knives in their hands.
The person at the far end is holding two iron chains in his hand, and on each iron chain is a vicious dog the size of a calf.
Under the moonlight, you can't tell what color the vicious dog is.
It was just that the mouth was open wide, but there was no loud barking. Instead, there were bursts of roars coming from the throat, and at the same time, four snow-white canine teeth more than an inch long were shining brightly on the outside.
"Boy, come down. You can't climb the wall of Prince Han's Mansion casually." Several people slowly moved towards Liu Rufeng.
By this time, it was already late at night.
Following the scoldings of several people, the lights in the Han Palace were suddenly brightly lit.
Outside the courtyard wall and in the house across the street, countless torches were also lit.
A large number of heavily armed palace guards, holding torches in one hand and swords in the other, rushed out of the house and surrounded Liu Rufeng.
A man wearing a golden python robe sat in the middle of the hall with a cruel smile on his face.
It was Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han.
"Finally, I couldn't hold it any longer anymore, so it was delivered to my door." He picked up the tea bowl on the table, gently fiddled with the tea leaves on the water, and Zhu Gaoxu snorted coldly.
Next to Zhu Gaoxu stood Dingxi Hou, who had already changed into guard clothes.
The sword at his waist has already been unsheathed and is held tightly in his hand.
"Your Majesty, if this man is captured, I will kill him."
"If he dares to break into the palace, he must not be an ordinary person among Dongchang. If he is captured in a while, the Marquis will take his life. It can be regarded as asking Dongchang to pay some interest in advance."
Zhu Gaoxu said.
If you dare to break into the Han Palace alone, the opponent's skills are naturally not weak.
But the guards of the Han Palace were not vegetarians either.
What's more, the person next to him was able to be made a marquis by Taizu, and his own power was beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Especially since he and the other party have a deep blood feud.
His outburst shouldn't be a big deal as long as the purple-robed captain didn't come in person and kill the opponent with his own hands.
After looking at the people on the opposite side and the two vicious dogs the size of calves, Liu Rufeng looked back at the dozens of heavily armed guards outside the wall and couldn't help but laugh.
"In the middle of the night, the crowd to welcome me is still so big? Are you so flattering to me?"
"Boy, don't talk nonsense. Come down and be captured obediently, and you will suffer less physical pain."
Looking at Liu Rufeng, the sneers on several people's faces became even stronger.
Surrounded inside and out, you are already unable to fly.
You dare to break into the Han Palace, but you really think your life is too long.
Liu Rufeng didn't have the slightest fear and simply sat down on the top of the wall.
"I don't understand. I was already tiptoeing around. How did you find me? Judging from the looks of you losers, you shouldn't have such a strong sense of perception."
"Insolent." A person on the opposite side yelled loudly, reaching out and patting the heads of the two vicious dogs beside him, "There are mastiffs here, and even mosquitoes flying by can't escape their ears, let alone a small hairy dog like you.
thief."
"It turns out it's these two beasts." As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Rufeng's figure had disappeared from the wall, and the knife in his hand passed through the air, bringing out a ray of cold moonlight and striking at the heads of the two vicious dogs.
The two vicious dogs didn't seem to take Liu Rufeng seriously. The dogs' mouths opened wide, and an unpleasant stench came out of their throats, and they bit towards the sword light.
Liu Rufeng's figure flashed, and the sword light had already hit the head of one of the vicious dogs. The vicious dog howled miserably and blood spurted out.
"Pfft." The knife was swung again, and the vicious dog's body had been split in half. The body fell to the ground with a muffled "plop" sound, and blood splashed everywhere.
"You evil beasts." Liu Rufeng shouted, raised the knife in his hand again, and slashed at the other vicious dog.
The same thing happened again. The vicious dog's head was cut in half, its body fell to the ground, and its limbs twitched rapidly several times mechanically.
"Ouch!"
Before dying, he finally let go of his pride and wailed.
In a flash of lightning, two mastiffs were beheaded. Several people in the yard felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. They put aside their previous contempt and clenched the knives in their hands, slashing at Liu Rufeng from four directions.
After killing the mastiff, Liu Rufeng had no intention of fighting.
Taking a deep breath of inner strength, he jumped onto the wall again.
He ran quickly along the wall for a few steps, jumped out of the encirclement, and ran wildly along the street.
"Chase, don't let him run away." With an urgent cry, the guards from the palace rushed out like a tide, speeding along the direction Liu Rufeng was running.
After running for about a mile with his pursuers, Liu Rufeng suddenly turned into a small alley next to him.
After looking around, he picked up a fist-sized stone on the ground and threw it deep into the alley.
Taking advantage of this gap, he jumped deep and reached the rooftop on the opposite side.
In the blink of an eye, the pursuers had arrived at the entrance of the alley.
Hearing the sound of rolling stones deep in the alley, a person at the front shouted: "In the alley, chase."
Liu Rufeng, who was on the roof, watched the entire "Fire Dragon" rush into the depths of the alley and snorted: "What a fool."
Carrying a knife in his hand, he jumped on the roof a few times and headed towards the Han Dynasty Palace.
These people are not worth wasting your time.
Finding the Marquis of Dingxi and killing him is the top priority.
