Forensic Imperial Concubine

After driving Rufus away, Harper went to bed straight away. The entire Sleek Palace was extremely peaceful, but Rufus got into big trouble once he got out.

As soon as he stepped foot outside the Sleek Palace, the secret guards hiding in the dark took action to capture him. Using his agile flying skills, he tried to fend them all off. After fighting for a long time, he was a bit overwhelmed and felt so exhausted. After all, he was fighting against four secret guards all by himself. In the end, the guards managed to suppress him.

When he heard that there was an assassin, he saw Rufus being chased in all directions by the secret guards.

"Rufus, surrender to us now! Otherwise, I'll be forced to order my men to shoot," Ken demanded in a stern voice. As he spoke, Rufus had already been completely surrounded by the archers.

After glancing at the guards who had him surrounded, and the secret guards who might attack him at any time, Rufus helplessly shrugged his shoulders and said, "I tried to surrender, but they wouldn't allow me to do so. There's nothing I can do."

"Seize him!" Ken said in an indifferent tone.
