Do you know what the current situation is with the owner of the Seven Star Tower?

"General, the news has spread, and the Emperor has ordered his arrest."

"And the mansion was sealed off."

Qian Yang answered.

The reason why the emperor is only making his move now is because he is laying the groundwork. Liu Feng had already thought of this, but he didn't expect that he would arrive at this particular moment.

After all, the Seven Star Tower had taken the initiative to change the emperor's mind, so how could the emperor tolerate it?

However, this is good news for Liu Feng.

In the capital city right now, the only one who can threaten him is the Seven Star Pavilion Master.

Without him, Liu Feng will be able to act more easily.

"I wonder what has brought you to the capital, General."

"If it's because of the letter I sent to my father, I'm afraid the timing isn't quite right."

"If we make a move now, we might alert the enemy."

Just as Qian Yang finished speaking, a continuous commotion erupted from the street outside.

The residence where Qian Yang is currently located is close to the imperial city. There are not many ordinary people in the area; it is mostly the residence of high-ranking officials and nobles.

When he returned, he only saw a patrol of soldiers.

Why is it suddenly so noisy?

Liu Feng also noticed something was wrong; this location shouldn't be a noisy place.

Before long, the old servant came to report.

"Young master, a group of soldiers has come outside. They say they are looking for escaped prisoners. We should let them in."

"Go ahead, let them come."

Before long, a group of soldiers entered; they were the imperial guards from the palace.

The fact that the Imperial Guards have been dispatched means that something major has happened.

"This humble general greets Lord Qian. I am truly sorry for disturbing your rest."

"However, please forgive me, Lord Qian, for the Emperor's decree."

Qian Yang frowned. Who escaped? Why did the Imperial Guards have to be dispatched?

But Liu Feng sensed something unusual. Could it be that the people who wanted to frame Qian Yang had come to their door?

I just arrived and haven't had a chance to take him with me yet.

"My lord, an important prisoner has escaped from the Fire Guard's prison."

"According to the brothers who were chasing him, he came from this direction."

"Our brothers who went to intercept at the other exit also failed to catch anyone, so there's only one possibility: they're hiding in the nearby government residences."

Upon hearing the words "Fire Guard," Liu Feng was even more astonished. This was a secret agency established after the emperor ascended the throne, and they wielded immense power, even controlling the life and death of officials.

Did the people they arrested escape?

Liu Feng found it unbelievable.

Hearing the Imperial Guards say that they might be hiding in nearby mansions, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief, as long as they weren't there to frame Qian Yang.

The officers and soldiers searched Qian Yang's residence and left only after confirming that no one was hiding there.

They had just stepped outside when they heard someone shouting:

"Found it, it's here."

Curious, Liu Feng and his two companions also went out of the house to find out what was going on.

I was dumbfounded when I went outside.

Surprisingly, a sedan chair flew out of a small courtyard.

Then, seven or eight people flew out from behind. All of them were dressed in black and carried sharp blades. In no time, they drove back all the imperial guards who had surrounded them.

Then, without looking back, the sedan chair headed straight out of the city.

"sedan chair?"

"Or will it be flown?"

The imperial guards all rushed after him, but Liu Feng made a bold move and grabbed one of the guards.

"Tell me quickly, who is the person who escaped from the Fire Guard prison?"

"Could it be the owner of the Seven Star Tower?"

"Exactly."

"Alright, I'll tell you, the person is definitely still in the courtyard and didn't go out with the sedan chair at all."

At first, Liu Feng didn't suspect anything, but in a few moments, Jiufen noticed something was amiss; it was just a feint.

If there were people inside a sedan chair, even if those people were highly skilled in martial arts, they would definitely not be able to get out so smoothly.

Upon hearing this, the guard hesitated, pondering whether he should believe the man before him.

"You guys, come with me to the courtyard to investigate, just in case they try to use a feint."

The Imperial Guard still chose to trust Liu Feng, after all, what he said made a lot of sense.

They led a few people and slowly approached the courtyard.

Since he was the Seven Star Pavilion Master, Liu Feng naturally wouldn't miss the opportunity, so he followed him up.

"Let's go take a look."

Qian Yang hesitated for a moment, then followed behind Liu Feng with Yong Changshui.

The hiding place this building owner chose after escaping from prison was also very clever. It was not the residence of an official, but the mansion of a wealthy merchant.

Moreover, this wealthy merchant usually lived and recuperated in his villa outside the city, leaving only a few old servants to clean the courtyard.

As the guards entered, several servants were restrained by two guards in a small room, kneeling on the ground trembling.

The remaining guards began searching, still shouting:

"Where is he? Search him quickly."

At this point, the Imperial Guards began questioning several servants.

An old servant turned pale with fright. Seeing the Imperial Guards drawing their swords one by one, he couldn't withstand the pressure and glanced towards the woodshed.
