Why?
That was because Lord Huai whom he wanted to kill was the Head of the Shadow Door. That was why people from the Shadow Door were here.
Gu Chaoyan knew that clearly, but she had no intention of telling the King this.
"Catch those people from Shadow Door!" The King shouted.
The Deputy General from the imperial army hurried in. "My King, please, let me escort you back to Qianqing Palace!"
They also wanted to catch those hidden guards, but soon, they realized that the imperial soldiers were not good enough to fight against the people in black. They were all well-trained and highly-skilled. They were not only not wounded, but they were also able to save the prisoners.
It was already lucky for the King not to be wounded.
The King felt quite frightened as well, but he nodded after hearing the Deputy General's order, and hurried back to Qianqing Palace.
Gu Chaoyan followed behind him, leisurely.
