Next to the window, stood a man wearing a black cloak and a black ghost mask on his face.
"There's an assassin!"
Zhang Qian shouted sharply.
Zhang Qian has big breasts, but she is not brainless.
This is the Ministry of Industry. As long as someone comes over, the assassin will definitely escape.
Her mission is to protect Long Chen's safety, not to engage in a one-on-one fight, so she yells first.
The assassin looked at Long Chen with cold eyes, without any words, and suddenly jumped to kill him, and the black cloak on his body made a whirring sound.
Zhang Qian stopped in front of her and charged forward to kill him.
The assassin's hands and feet are hidden under the cloak. The length of the hands and feet cannot be seen clearly, and it is not known what weapons are hidden under the cloak. The unknown is the biggest danger.
But Zhang Qian did not hesitate or evade, and went straight to the front.
The dagger was pointed directly at the assassin's throat, but the assassin did not dodge and rushed towards the dagger. When the two were about to get close, a crossbow arrow suddenly shot out from under his cloak.
Zhang Qian looked shocked, but it was too late to dodge, and Long Chen was behind her. Zhang Qian gritted her teeth and simply didn't dodge. Even if she was hit by a crossbow, she could still kill the assassin and exchange one life for another!
when!
Hiss...
At the critical moment, an iron gun deflected the crossbow arrow and pierced the cloak. The assassin was suddenly startled and stepped back to the wall three meters away. The black cloak on his body was torn open, revealing a knife hidden inside.
Short crossbow.
The crossbow arrow hit the bookcase and the arrowhead sank into the wooden board.
Long Chen pointed the gun at the assassin and said with a smile: "Did you forget that you still have me?"
The assassin looked at Long Chen suspiciously through his ghost mask. He obviously did not expect this result.
"There's an assassin!"
Zhang Qian shouted again.
The guard outside the door finally heard and rushed into the room. The assassin jumped out of the window and disappeared into the night.
"Where's the assassin? Where's the assassin?"
The leading captain looked left and right, but did not see the assassin.
Long Chen put away the iron gun and waved his hand to let these wine bags and rice bags go down.
"You don't want your life? You rushed forward when you saw the crossbow arrow?"
Long Chen saw it clearly just now.
Zhang Qian breathed a sigh of relief and said: "My duty is to protect you, I must die in front of you."
Long Chen's heart suddenly felt hot. Although this was Zhang Qian's duty, he was still very touched that she could die for him and do it so resolutely without any hesitation.
"What nonsense are you talking about? As a man, I will let a woman die in front of me."
"It seems that I was too good at checking the accounts, which made that guy angry."
There were many people who wanted to assassinate Long Chen, such as Nanliang, but Long Chen was sure that it would definitely be Jing Heng this time.
Zhang Qian said: "I will report it to the fourth princess immediately!"
But Long Chen said: "Forget it, just report it to the Holy One as usual. Tell the fourth princess alone, be careful that she will directly attack the Jing family and there will be no way to end it."
Zhang Qian nodded and said: "That's right, the Fourth Princess treats you..."
Zhang Qian did not continue because she felt it was too strange to say it.
It's so funny that a dignified princess of a country had a falling out with the general's palace because of a eunuch.
"Let's go, the paperwork is finished anyway, go back to sleep."
Long Chen held the iron gun in his hand.
These days, Long Chen was on guard against assassins, so he carried an iron gun with him.
"Don't say you're sleepwalking at night."
Zhang Qian complained.
"Hey... I can't help it. There are too many things during the day, I'm still working in my dreams, and then it creeps up on you unknowingly. I'm also helpless."
Long Chen looked very aggrieved.
"Then what's going on with your hand? Sometimes it's up, and sometimes it's down?"
Zhang Qian complained angrily.
"When reviewing official documents, I am writing and reviewing. This is taking out the documents from under the table. Sometimes the documents are in the document bag, so I put my hand in. This is work, really work."
It really looked like that when Long Chen made gestures to Zhang Qian.
"You use two fingers to hold documents?"
Zhang Qian said with a blushing face.
"Yes, some files are sandwiched in the middle. I use two fingers to take out the files in the middle. Isn't this reasonable? You saw it just now!"
"You have to believe me, I'm just a eunuch, what bad intentions can I have!"
What Long Chen said was reasonable and completely consistent with the content and method of work.
Zhang Qian was speechless.
These days, Long Chen is always climbing up at night.
My clothes are well-dressed before going to bed, but I wake up in a mess in the morning.
The same goes for the bedsheets. They put new ones on before going to bed and change them when they get up in the morning. Xiang Ning even laughed at Zhang Qian for wetting the bed.
"I believe you! Eunuchs are the worst!"
Zhang Qian was extremely speechless.
....
Jing family.
Jing Heng was lying on the couch, with two disheveled dancers clinging to their bellies, and their snores could be heard outside the door.
A man in black fell next to him and said coldly: "Failed!"
Hearing the sound, Jing Heng slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw the cuttlefish, Jing Heng was startled and cursed: "How many times have I told you not to show up?"
"What? Failed? Didn't you say it was easy?"
Cuiyu said coldly: "Long Chengen's cultivation has entered the realm of kings."
Jing Heng said in surprise: "How is that possible? Didn't you say last time that he only had the early cultivation level of a grandmaster?"
Cuttlefish said coldly: "It was last time, but not this time."
Jing Heng pushed the two dancers away with a look of disbelief on his face: "Don't tell me, he went from the master level to the king level in a few months!"
Cuttlefish said coldly: "That's right!"
this...
Jing Heng scratched his head and said cursingly: "With such qualifications, this damn genius can't be more than this! What kind of eunuch do you want to be? There's something wrong with your brain!"
In just a few months, cultivating from the master realm to the king realm, this is more genius than genius.
Jing Heng felt that Long Chen was a lunatic because he had such talent but ended up working as a eunuch in the palace.
Cuiyu didn't listen to Jing Heng's complaints, but said coldly: "Failed, what are your instructions, young master?"
Jing Heng waved his hands and complained: "I can't even kill a eunuch."
The cuttlefish retreated into the darkness and disappeared.
Bang!
The door was pushed open, and Chen Hanying, the minister of household affairs, rushed in and said, "Sir, the assassination failed. Yingfeng escorted Zhao Min into the palace."
"waste!"
Jing Heng was so angry that he was half dead, and the assassinations on both sides failed.
The two dancers were awakened and wisely left the room.
Chen Hanying lowered her head and said nothing.
"roll!"
Jing Heng picked up something and threw it at it, and Chen Hanying ran away in despair.
....
Fengming Palace.
The empress was wearing black pajamas and sitting on the couch in the bedroom.
Yingfeng was reporting the assassination on the road. The empress nodded slightly and said: "You are very courageous. Kill and silence, retaliate and silence, both sides will do it together."
Yingfeng said in surprise: "Long Shangshu was also assassinated?"
The empress smiled and said: "Just now, the Ministry of Works came to report that an assassin broke into the Ministry of Works to assassinate him, but Long Chengen repelled him."
Yingfeng said in surprise: "Can Long Chengen repel the assassin?"
The assassin who sneaked into the Ministry of Industry to assassinate him was definitely not weak. Long Chen was able to repel it, which was a bit awesome.
"His cultivation level has broken through to the realm of king."
The empress smiled meaningfully.
Yingfeng said in shock: "How is that possible! He...isn't he a talented warrior?"
The empress let out a long sigh and said, "Yes, last year we were only at the warrior level, but this year we are at the king level. A genius is a genius!"
Yingfeng nodded slightly: "When he was 20 years old, he cultivated to the realm of the Martial Emperor, and now he is practicing again... Could it be that he hid his cultivation at the beginning?"
The empress shook her head and said: "It's impossible. It was indeed abolished last year. It only took him one year to return to the king's realm!"
Outside the door, Di Xingwan walked in, and the two stopped talking.
