Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge
Chapter 316 Assassinating Yan Nangui
It was already past the hour of Chou, when people were sleeping the deepest. A number of men in black had quietly gathered outside the Dali Temple.
The man in the lead had a big beard. Although he had his face covered, much of his lush beard was still visible.
He was extremely cautious at this time. He was causing trouble in the capital, and he was causing trouble in the Dali Temple. This was the first time he did such a risky thing.
So this time, their tactics were to fight quickly and decisively. They must complete the mission before they could react, and then leave quickly.
According to the plan they made, they first had to find where Yan Nangui and the illusion master rested at night.
Because they were acting in a hurry and the money the other party offered was really large, after doing this job, their entire gang could move away from the capital, change their appearance and live a better life, so everyone was very motivated, but they were a little embarrassed to do the work.
Let's not talk about whether the two of them are there in the Dali Temple's government office. Even if they are there, they need to confirm each of the more than a dozen rooms one by one.
If it were a normal day, they would definitely send an undercover agent or spy here in advance to get a feel for the situation, but today, they could only come one room at a time. Fortunately, they brought a lot of brothers with them today.
This is a very risky job, so this time the three most powerful masters in their gang are all out.
The bearded man raised his hand and made a shaking gesture, which meant that they should disperse and check the situation in the room one by one, mainly to find the master of illusion.
Yan Nangui must be in the main house, which is also the special room for the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple.
After a while, all the people who had gone out to search came back and pointed out the location of the room they were looking for to the bearded man.
So, under the command of the bearded man, several people climbed onto the roof with the faint light in the yard and slowly moved towards the two houses they had just pointed out.
The bearded man took two people to deal with Yan Nangui, while another master took people to kill the illusion master Xuanjizi.
All the others remained on the roof, waiting for reinforcement at any time.
However, they did not realize that there were more people on the big tree behind them, or even in the dark alley, aiming cold arrows at their backs...
As if sensing something, Wang Zhuo felt a little uneasy in the scholar's residence. He called Wang Yucheng to him and said, "Cheng'er, go to the front and ask if Sun Xingzhi has returned."
If Sun Xingzhi rushed back overnight, things might be bad.
After Li Junze reads his letter, if he agrees with his arrangement, he will definitely keep Sun Xingzhi to help him. If he still wants to solve it by himself, he will definitely find an excuse to send Sun Xiangzhi back first.
Wang Yucheng was awakened from his sleep and kept yawning. He had no idea what his father and others had been discussing recently, but he knew when Sun Xingzhi left.
"What's going on? Didn't he just leave yesterday afternoon? And it's so late in the evening, and it's only 12:30 now..."
"Shut up and do what I say." Wang Zhuo couldn't hold back any longer and finally got angry at his son.
Wang Yucheng was not angry. It was obvious that such things happened frequently, so he stopped talking and turned around and walked out the door.
Before he had taken two steps, he bumped into Sun Xingzhi who was about to report.
"Oh, Sun Tanhua really came here so late at night. My father asked me to go out and look for you." Wang Yucheng said in surprise.
Sun Xingzhi came in exhausted, nodded at him, and said to him with a cupped hand, "I went out to help the scholar with some errands this afternoon, and now I just happened to come back to report."
"Okay, then come with me into the house."
In order to avoid reporting again, Wang Yucheng took Sun Xingzhi directly into the house.
The first time Wang Zhuo saw Sun Xingzhi, he felt something was wrong, and Sun Xingzhi was indeed sent back by Li Junze.
"How is it? Did Ze'er ask you to come back?" Wang Zhuo asked impatiently.
At this time, he still held out a glimmer of hope.
Sun Xingzhi glanced at Wang Yucheng beside him, and Wang Zhuo remembered that Wang Yucheng was still here, so he said to him, "Go to sleep, go to sleep, I won't call you again tonight."
When Wang Yucheng heard this, he immediately became happy. It was not a pleasant feeling to be woken up several times in one night.
So he greeted the two of them and left at a very fast speed.
Sun Xingzhi then told Wang Zhuo, "It was His Highness who asked me to come back, and he asked me to pay my respects to you on his behalf, saying that he would let me go to Prince An's mansion to see him after he returns to the capital."
Wang Zhuo felt a chill in his heart, knowing that Li Junze did not listen to him, but he had no idea what he wanted to do.
"Hurry, go and get the housekeeper of Prince An's Mansion right away, quickly..." Wang Zhuo said anxiously at this time.
He hoped that Li Junze might have revealed something to the housekeeper, but seeing that it was almost dawn, he didn't know if it was too late.
Sun Xingzhi nodded and was about to leave, but when the housekeeper came running in in a panic, he stopped for a moment.
"Master, master, something big has happened..." The butler said breathlessly without even saying hello after entering the room.
"What big thing happened? Tell me slowly." Wang Zhuo glared at him unhappily and told him not to panic.
"The Dali Temple was attacked just now. They wanted to assassinate Lord Yan, but they only made a little noise and were all captured alive. Now more and more people on the street are running out after hearing the noise."
The butler finished speaking in one breath and then wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Although he didn't know whether this matter was related to the master, he would definitely report it as soon as possible for something like this.
"Dali Temple? Lord Yan?" Wang Zhuo's eyes narrowed slightly, and he muttered these two words again, then his eyes widened in an instant.
"What's the situation outside now?" Wang Zhuo asked anxiously.
"After capturing everyone alive, they are now being escorted to the palace. Along the way from west to east, more and more people hear the noise and gather around to watch.
When everyone heard that someone had actually broken into the Dali Temple at night, they were all very worried about the security of the capital, so many people planned to follow them and wait for news from the palace."
After all, it involves their own safety, so they all take it very seriously.
Do you think that if these people dare to attack the Dali Temple, can their safety be guaranteed?
Wang Zhuo felt vaguely uneasy. He was not sure whether this matter was related to Li Junze.
But thinking of what he had mentioned in his letter to Li Junze, that Hu Er and Gu Qiongsi had been imprisoned in the Dali Temple, he then asked, "Did they tell me who the assassins were?"
