Chapter 92 Assassination in the middle of the night
The arrival of the two princes caused an uproar in the Ministry of Revenue, and everyone was discussing how long the two princes who joined the Ministry of Revenue could last. Yuan Ying gave them the position of head of the Ministry of Revenue, which was the sixth rank.
After they arrived at their respective offices, they began to handle their affairs, only to find that these affairs were not as simple as they had imagined, as they involved many complicated accounts and interpersonal relationships.
Murong Xuanzhou was calm and studied the account books carefully, trying to find the problem. Murong Xuanyu was more impulsive, and he directly asked some subordinates about the situation, but the answers he got made him even more confused.
Yuan Ying explained the work process and precautions of the Ministry of Revenue to the two of them, and did not regard them as princes at all. In the following days, Murong Xuanzhou and Murong Xuanyu tried hard to adapt to the affairs of the Ministry of Revenue.
Murong Xuanzhou gradually mastered the skills of handling accounts with his calm character and keen insight, and Murong Xuanyu also continued to grow through setbacks, but made small mistakes from time to time and was criticized by Yuan Ying.
He was depressed, so he went to the Wei Mansion to find Murong Xuanyi and complained: "Fifth brother, the Ministry of Revenue and I are at odds, I'd better go back to the Imperial College."
"The Ministry of Revenue is not a place where you can come and go as you please? If you don't want to stay, why don't you personally petition your father to make your intentions clear?" Murong Xuanyi said unhappily.
Murong Xuanyu suddenly felt like a deflated ball. Seeing this, Murong Xuanyi also slowed down his tone and said, "Don't let a temporary setback shake your long-term ambitions.
Although Lord Yuan is strict, it is only for your own good. He wants you to be able to stand on your own as soon as possible."
Murong Xuanyu had no choice but to return to the Ministry of Revenue with his head down. With no place to complain, he could only work harder...
Late at night, after finishing his business in the mutual market, Yuan Ying walked out of the Ministry of Revenue alone. A sudden sound of "squeaking" came from behind him, breaking the tranquility of the night sky. Then, more than a dozen black shadows approached silently like ghosts, and the sharp blades in their hands flashed coldly in the moonlight.
Yuan Ying's heart trembled, and he quickly drew out his dagger, and started a fierce fight with the assassin who suddenly appeared. The sword flashed like lightning, cutting through the darkness, and every confrontation was accompanied by the harsh sound of metal colliding.
Although she was a modern person, she had gradually adapted to the pace of life in ancient times, but she was still not used to having guards and secret guards following her around on weekdays. Today, Murong Xuanyi went to the military camp on the outskirts of the city again, and she couldn't help but secretly regret not letting the guards accompany him.
Yuan Ying is as nimble as a flying swallow, and her swordsmanship is as fierce as a storm. Facing the siege of many well-trained assassins, she is still able to deal with them with her agility.
However, the other side had more people and cooperated well. At this critical moment, an assassin suddenly flashed and the sharp tip of the sword scratched Yuan Ying's back.
She was instantly attacked by severe pain, and her face turned pale as paper. Yuan Ying gradually felt an unprecedented sense of powerlessness, as if the strength of her body was being ruthlessly drained away.
She knew that it was not a good time to fight, and the best strategy was to flee. So she took advantage of the force and leaped, lightly avoiding the interception of several assassins, and fled in the night.
The assassins behind him were chasing him like maggots, and the hidden arrows whizzed past his ears. Yuan Ying knew in his heart that the appearance of these assassins was not accidental and must have been sent by the imperial concubine or the queen.
She ran while looking for a way to escape. Finally, she found a brothel called Yanchunlou in front of her, which was still brightly lit, and she came up with a plan.
She quickly climbed over the wall and broke into a room on the second floor.
In the room, a woman was about to scream when she saw this, but Yuan Ying quickly stepped forward to cover her mouth and whispered to comfort her: "Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person."
The woman was startled at first, then a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: "Sir, why is it you?"
Yuan Ying was startled when he heard this. He took a closer look with the weak candlelight and found that the woman was the one he met in the maple forest. Yuan Ying quickly let go and whispered, "Girl, it's you. Why are you here?"
Yun Mengyao quickly pulled Yuan Ying behind the screen and explained, "I... I am originally a girl from Yanchun Tower. Sir, what's wrong with you?
Yuan Ying briefly explained his purpose, "Someone is chasing me outside."
Yun Mengyao looked out the window anxiously, "What should we do now? They will probably come here soon."
Yuan Ying thought calmly for a moment, his eyes fell on Yun Mengyao, "Girl, don't be afraid, I am Yuan Ying from the Ministry of Household Affairs."
Yun Mengyao said in surprise: "It turns out that the young master is Lord Yuan." She didn't expect that the young master she met last time turned out to be Lord Yuan.
Yuan Ying nodded and said, "Miss, I need your help now. Can I borrow your clothes?" Yun Mengyao nodded and was quickly looking for clothes for Yuan Ying.
There were footsteps outside the door. It was the voice of the officers. "Open the door. An assassin has broken in. Routine inspection."
Yun Mengyao clenched her hands nervously, and Yuan Ying comforted her: "Don't be afraid, I won't let you get hurt."
Yuan Ying understood that the soldiers were not searching for the assassin but were really looking for her.
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open and the soldiers rushed in.
At this time, the two of them were already lying on the bed, and Yun Mengyao deliberately pressed on Yuan Ying to create an illusion of intimacy.
Seeing the sudden intrusion of the officers and soldiers, Yun Mengyao said in her cold voice with a hint of provocation: "Officials, do you also want to join the spectators?"
After hearing this, the officers and soldiers looked at each other, their faces flushed. Although they felt embarrassed, they still looked around diligently, carefully searching every corner, trying to find anything suspicious. After searching, they did not find anything unusual, so they had to leave in disappointment.
When the officers and soldiers completely disappeared outside the door, Yun Mengyao finally breathed a sigh of relief. Two red clouds appeared on her cheeks. She shyly rolled off Yuan Ying and stood beside the bed.
"Thank you for your help, young lady." Yuan Ying stood up with difficulty and bowed to Yun Mengyao to express his gratitude, his words full of sincerity.
"Lord Yuan, you are too polite. But it is not advisable to stay here for long. You should leave as soon as possible." Yun Mengyao said worriedly.
Suddenly, Yun Mengyao's eyes fell on the shocking bloodstain on Yuan Ying's back. Her heart tightened, and she quickly said with concern: "Sir, you are injured, let me bandage your wound."
After saying that, she quickly took out an exquisite porcelain bottle from her sleeve, which was filled with the finest hemostatic powder, and prepared to carefully treat Yuan Ying's wound.
Yuan Ying shook his head and said, "It's just a minor injury, please don't worry about it!"
Then she changed the subject and asked, "Girl, why are you here?"
Yun Mengyao's eyes dimmed instantly when she heard this, and she sighed softly: "I was born in a good family, but because of the unpredictable world, I encountered misfortunes and ended up here, trapped in the dust."
After hearing this, Yuan Ying couldn't help but feel pity in her heart. She said to Yun Mengyao solemnly: "Miss, if you have any difficulties in the future, just come to Yuan Mansion to find me. I will do my best to help you."
Yun Mengyao's heart moved, and she nodded gently and said, "Thank you, Master Yuan."
Then, Yuan Ying turned and left the room, disappearing into the night.
Inside the Southwest General's Mansion, a burst of angry shouting broke the tranquility of the night: "What a bunch of rubbish! So many people can't even deal with one person!"
Li Yongjun slammed the table uncontrollably, his voice filled with uncontrollable anger. He vowed to make Yuan Ying pay with his life to avenge the humiliation of the past and to wipe out the shame.
