After failing the imperial examination, he began to wield immense power after entering the palace!

"court death!"

Zhang Miaozhen's pupils contracted, and she was about to intervene.

But the man in black moved extremely fast. Despite being slashed on the shoulder by the Imperial Guard and bleeding profusely, he still managed to rush in front of Li Fan!

A bloody hand gripped Li Fan's throat, while a blade pressed against his waist.

"Don't move a single one!"

"Anyone who dares to come any closer, I'll kill them!"

"The eunuchs in this palace are all very precious. If you want to die, then come and get them!"

The Imperial Guard soldiers froze, exchanging bewildered glances.

This eunuch Gao is one of Consort Xie's men. If he dies here, they will all lose their heads.

"Let go of Grandpa Gao, and we'll let you go!"

The man in black spat, "Bullshit! I don't believe it!"

"Everyone step back, and prepare another carriage for me! Once I'm in the carriage, I'll naturally throw him out!"

But Li Fan didn't believe this explanation at all.

These people dared to kill the wives and daughters of generals in broad daylight in Kyoto, which shows their audacity and ruthlessness.

If I were to get on the carriage, I would be the one to die.

He has to save himself!

"Brother, I'm just a powerless eunuch. Please keep your knife a little further away from me."

"It wouldn't be good if you got hurt. You can leave if you want; they won't come after you."

The man in black looked at Li Fan with disdain and said that eunuchs without testicles were the most cowardly and spineless.

Once we're on the carriage, we'll kill this damned eunuch.

"Shut up!"

Zhang Miaozhen stood still, her silver spear lowered, her phoenix eyes fixed on the man in black, like a mother leopard poised to pounce.

She had barely taken a step when the man in black rebuked her, his eyes filled with apprehension.

"Stop right there! Don't come any closer!"

Zhang Miaozhen stood there, looking troubled.

She had hoped to find an opportunity to save the father-in-law, but now it seemed the situation was complicated.

next second.

Li Fan made a move.

The warm current in his body surged out, even more intensely than when he was with Princess Anle!

Each time I'm transferred, it seems like I'm doing much better than the last.

Could it be a problem with a pure Yang constitution?

"Bang!"

Li Fan suddenly raised his knee and slammed it hard into the man in black's groin!

He used all his strength, channeling his inner energy into his knees, and the force was astonishing.

"what!"

The man in black let out a scream that sounded inhuman, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets.

He never imagined that the little eunuch he considered a coward would suddenly attack him, and that he would injure the most vulnerable part of his body!

"Click!"

The sound of the egg breaking was clearly heard by everyone present.

The man in black could no longer hold back; he loosened his grip and his body hunched over like a shrimp.

Li Fan snatched the knife and slashed backhand!

"Pfft!"

The blade sliced ​​across the man in black's throat, and blood gushed out.

The man in black widened his eyes.

He made a "hoarse" sound in his throat, and his large body collapsed to the ground with a thud, twitching twice before becoming still.

How did I end up dying at the hands of a seemingly harmless little eunuch?

No, this is a deadly viper lurking in the shadows!

The entire courtyard was deathly silent.

The Imperial Guard soldiers shuddered as they looked at the indifferent-looking young eunuch.

One second he says he's powerless, the next he's killing someone cleanly and efficiently.

This guy is clearly a ruthless and vicious character!

Zhang Miaozhen frowned in surprise.

Although he was an assassin, the young eunuch killed him without hesitation, his methods were far too ruthless.

"Father-in-law, they are guilty, but they should still be tried and executed by the authorities."

His voice was clear and cold, carrying the uprightness characteristic of a military family.

Li Fan looked the valiant female warrior up and down; she had a high ponytail and wheat-colored skin.

Beneath the dark blue outfit was a curvaceous figure, especially the slender waist accentuated by the belt and the round, perky peach-shaped buttocks below.

That's absolutely amazing!

"Ms. Zhang is right, this will not happen again."

Then, with a wave of his hand, he shouted to the Imperial Guards, "What are you all standing there for? Take down the rest alive!"

"Remember, break their jaws, don't let them bite their tongues and kill themselves!"

soon.

The remaining Imperial Guards rushed forward and captured the assassins.

Li Fan then turned around and walked up to Zhang Miaozhen.

"Miss Zhang, you're quite skilled."

Zhang Miaozhen looked at the young man; he was handsome, but it was a pity he was a eunuch.

But she still looked wary and tentatively asked:

"Sir, what brings you to my house?"

Li Fan noticed Zhang Miaozhen's wariness and smiled, saying, "I'm here to investigate your father's collusion with the Tartars."

"We had barely left the palace when we received news that someone had attacked you."

"Heh, it seems there's more to Zhang Xuan's case than meets the eye."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Miaozhen's tense shoulders finally relaxed slightly.

What she feared most was that the authorities would immediately close her father's case, leaving him no chance to overturn it.

The fact that His Majesty has sent people to investigate means that Father can still be saved!

"Please investigate this matter thoroughly, Your Honor!"

She clasped her hands together and bent over, revealing a section of her wheat-colored collarbone as she slightly opened the neckline of her dark blue outfit, which was both strong and sexy.

"My father was utterly loyal to the court and His Majesty. From a young age, he taught me to be loyal to the emperor and to love my country, and that I would never collude with the Tartars to betray the country!"

"There must be someone smearing us!"

Li Fan looked into her clear, phoenix eyes, which were filled with anxiety and earnestness, without a trace of falsehood.

"Miss Zhang, rest assured, now that we are here, we will definitely clear General Zhang's name."

"Let's ask these assassins first, who sent them?"

He looked at the three men in black whose jaws had been dislocated, his eyes like those of someone looking at three pigs waiting to be slaughtered.

"If you don't want to suffer, then honestly tell us who's behind this."

An assassin spat out a mouthful of blood and glared, cursing loudly:

"You damned eunuch! It was your dead father who sent me!"

"Your father needs servants in the underworld, so I'll send you to see him, hahahaha..."

The other two joined in the cursing, using foul and offensive language.

Zhang Miaozhen frowned deeply.

These assassins are still so ferocious even after being captured; they're unlikely to cooperate and it will be difficult to get them to confess. They're probably suicide squads...

next second.

Li Fan plunged a knife into the assassin's neck.

"Pfft!"

The assassin's eyes widened in disbelief. "They killed me like that?"

His body convulsed violently twice before he collapsed to the ground.

"hiss!"

The imperial guards in the courtyard all gasped in shock.

This eunuch kills people more casually than he kills chickens. No wonder he's Consort Xie's man; he's truly ruthless!

Li Fan wiped his knife on the corpse, then turned to look at the remaining two assassins, his smile gentle and devoid of any sinister intent.

Are you hiring?

The two assassins exchanged a glance, a flicker of fear crossing their eyes, but they still stubbornly cursed:

"You damned eunuch! Kill me if you want! I'll be a hero again in eighteen years!"

"When Grandpa gets to the underworld, the first thing he'll do is settle accounts with your childless, dead father..."

Zhang Miaozhen gripped the silver spear tightly and whispered to Li Fan:

"Father-in-law, why don't we send them to the Ministry of Justice and let the officials there interrogate them at their leisure?"
