A special forces soldier traveled through time and space to become a genius of literature and martia

In the study room of the Wei Mansion, Jiang Chong reported to Murong Xuanyi in detail what he had found out about the out-of-control horse.

It was found that the reason why Mei lost control on the racecourse was because she accidentally ingested a large amount of aphrodisiacs.

Jiang Chong has conducted detailed inquiries and investigations on all the grooms in the stable. All of them claimed that the aphrodisiac was originally used to promote horse mating, and perhaps it was accidentally ingested by Xunmei due to negligence in its storage.

In view of the lack of conclusive evidence, the groom involved could only be given a moderate punishment and it was difficult to impose a heavy punishment.

Murong Xuanyi's expression became increasingly gloomy, and it seemed as if water could drip out of it, showing his inner anger and worry.

I never expected that someone would dare to harm the little eagle. It was all my fault for being careless. Fortunately, the little eagle was safe.

Murong Xuanyi pondered for a moment, then turned to Jiang Chongyan and said, "Call Xie An and Yun Jiu in."

Soon, Xie An and Yun Jiu hurried into the study and bowed respectfully to Murong Xuanyi: "Your subordinates pay their respects to the prince."

"Well, get up. From today on, the two of you must follow Master Yuan closely and not slack off at all."

"Also, I need the two of you to secretly investigate who exactly wants to harm Lord Yuan." After saying this, a sharp look flashed in Murong Xuanyi's eyes.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xie An and Yun Jiu responded in unison, then took the order and left the study.

Murong Xuanyi secretly calculated in his heart that there must be a mastermind behind this incident. The enemy is in the dark and I am in the light. This situation is quite unfavorable.

He blew a whistle, and on the roof, Ying knelt down on the ground in an instant, saying respectfully: "Slave, I pay my respects to the prince!"

"Yingyi, you will take ten people to Yuan's mansion immediately and secretly protect Master Yuan's safety. From now on, Master Yuan will be your new master."

Murong Xuanyi's tone was cold, yet it revealed unquestionable majesty.

He has a total of eighteen shadow guards, all of whom are elites who have experienced the baptism of war and have superb martial arts skills.

Although Ying Yi was still doubtful, he still answered firmly: "I will do my best to protect Master Yuan until my death!"

After receiving the order, Ying Yi disappeared into the night like a ghost, and quickly mobilized people to go to Yuan's mansion to set up defenses.

Murong Xuanyi sat in the study, staring at the dark night sky outside the window, thinking about the next move in the game of chess.

He thought that this undercurrent contest had just begun.

At the same time, inside Yuan's mansion, Xie An and Yun Jiu had quietly taken their positions. The next day, Yuan Ying got up and walked out of the room. When he saw Xie An and Yun Jiu at the door, he frowned slightly.

"Why are you here?"

"Sir Yuan, on the orders of the prince, from now on we will be responsible for protecting your safety." Xie An said with a bow.

Yuan Ying was speechless. This Murong Xuanyi was exaggerating. She said bluntly, "I don't need your protection. You can go back."

Xie An and Yun Jiu looked at each other and said, "This is the prince's order, we cannot disobey it." Yun Jiu said with determination.

Yuan Ying ignored him and walked towards the front hall. Xie An and Yun Jiu quickly followed him, and the two of them protected Yuan Ying on the left and right.

As soon as I arrived at the front hall, a servant came to report that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Prince Shun wanted to see me.

Yuan Ying frowned. She had no connection with these two people. What was the purpose of their visit? She didn't think much about it and went to the door to greet them.

I saw the Crown Prince and Prince Shun coming side by side, followed by a group of guards.

Yuan Ying couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in her heart. She always felt that the visit of these two princes was not that simple.

"Your humble servant greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness Prince Shun." Yuan Ying said with a simple greeting.

"Master Yuan, there is no need to be so polite. I heard about what happened at the horse farm yesterday, so I came to visit you," the prince said. He then ordered someone to bring some supplements.

Prince Shun said, "I have seen the horse of Lao Wu before. It has a gentle temperament. I didn't expect it to suddenly go crazy. Fortunately, Lord Yuan is fine."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness the Crown Prince and Your Highness Prince Shun. The matter has been investigated. It was the groom who neglected his duty and accidentally gave the horse an aphrodisiac."

Yuan Ying said calmly. She knew that things might not be as simple as she imagined.

"I see. But I think this matter may not be that simple."

"A tall tree attracts the wind. Lord Yuan is now highly valued by our father, so it is inevitable that he will attract jealousy. I hope Lord Yuan will be more careful in the future." The prince said meaningfully.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for the reminder." Yuan Ying said this, but he knew in his heart that the prince had ulterior motives in his words.

As expected, the prince immediately said: "I am deeply impressed by Mr. Yuan's outstanding talent and character. I earnestly hope to work hand in hand with Mr. Yuan in the future. At the same time, I will spare no effort to protect Mr. Yuan."

Yuan Ying sneered in her heart. How could she not hear the hidden meaning of the prince's words? He just wanted to win her over so as to gain more support in the court.

"Your Highness, thank you for your praise. I am only doing my duty." Yuan Ying declined politely.

"Besides, I just want to do my job well and work for the welfare of the people. I have no right to interfere in other matters."

The prince's face changed slightly, but he soon returned to his smile. "Lord Yuan is a man of high moral character, which is admirable. In that case, I will not force you to do anything."

"However, if Lord Yuan encounters any difficulties in the future, please feel free to ask, and I will do my best to help you."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness." Yuan Ying thanked him again.

After seeing off the Crown Prince and Prince Shun, Yuan Ying turned back to the hall, a trace of worry flashing in his eyes.

She knew that the days ahead would not be peaceful, but she was not one to be afraid of trouble.

The prince stepped out of Yuan Ying's mansion and met Murong Xuanyi coming out of the Wei Mansion next door carrying a food box. Their eyes met in the air and they were both slightly stunned.

The prince smiled faintly, took a few steps forward, and said, "Old Fifth, are you going to see Master Yuan? You seem to care a lot about Master Yuan."

Murong Xuanyi nodded, his manners remained gentle and elegant, and he replied: "My royal brother, you are joking. Lord Yuan is the pillar of our dynasty. As children of the royal family, we should share our father's worries and care for the important officials in the court."

"Besides, aren't the two royal brothers here to see Master Yuan?"

After saying this, he went into the house.

The prince looked at the two big words "Yuan Mansion" and his face instantly became gloomy and fierce.

If they cannot be allies, then they are enemies; if they cannot be used for one's own benefit, then the only option is to destroy them.

Yuan Ying was eating breakfast, and his heart suddenly tightened when he saw Murong Xuanyi coming in with a lunch box.

Murong Xuanyi put the food box on the table and prepared to take out the food inside. Yuan Ying quickly said, "I'm full. I don't want to drink your nourishing soup."

Upon hearing this, Murong Xuanyi's lips curled up gently, but his hands did not stop moving.

He took out several exquisite breakfasts and placed them on the table, and then took out a bowl of ginseng soup and placed it in front of Yuan Ying, saying, "Drink this ginseng soup, and eat some more with me."

Yuan Ying glanced at Murong Xuanyi, then picked up the bowl of warm ginseng soup and took a sip carefully. A faint fragrance spread between his lips and teeth. Compared to yesterday's nourishing soup, this bowl of ginseng soup was much more delicious.

Murong Xuanyi chuckled and leisurely enjoyed his breakfast, his demeanor revealing a kind of leisurely elegance.

Yuan Ying pointed at the two people behind her and said, "I don't need guards." She didn't want to waste this money.

Murong Xuanyi looked at her gently and deeply, and said in an unquestionable tone: "Be obedient, I feel at ease when they are by your side."

Yuan Ying looked into Murong Xuanyi's black eyes that were as deep as the night sky. The words of rebuttal that she was about to blurt out were at that moment as if pulled back into her throat by an invisible force.

She knew very well that after what happened yesterday, the wall of her heart that she had painstakingly built up suddenly collapsed in an instant and turned into nothing.

At this moment, she didn't know what to do? Should she continue to accept the kindness as a man, or bravely unveil her female identity and make Murong Xuanyi give up completely?

Once he knew the truth, would he be angry because she had concealed her identity? She was filled with self-blame and anxiety, feeling as if she had deceived his true feelings.

These complex emotions intertwined together and put her into an unprecedented predicament.
