Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Whether the person behind the scene would cry as hell was still unknown yet, after all the horses hadn’t fallen into Long Xiaoyuan’s pocket yet.

Long and Shi were having a rest at the moment.

The next day, all the courtiers were very surprised to know that Right Prime Minister would be transferred to Quanzhou, which was far away from the capital.

However surprised people might feel, even the ones from the Right PM’s clique, nevertheless, none of them actually stood out and said something for him.

As long as these people were silent, Long preferred this situation as well and remained silent as everyone else did.

But the courtiers were not as stupid as to know nothing about what happened in Quanzhou at all!

When all officials went off the court, Long went to see Shi. But people exclaimed ‘assassin!’ before Long made any remarks.

Long was shocked and rushed out, taking Shi with him.

Shi squinted and threw a glance at Long, “There’s an assassin outside. Why are you dragging me out?”

Long waved at him. “Don’t worry. I believe your combating skill is invincible!”

Shi said, “What makes you think so?”

Long blinked his eyes innocently, “Isn’t that true?”

Shi twitched at the corner of his mouth, “Your Majesty, there are so many skilled people out there. There’s no chance I’m invincible .”

Long blinked again, “In my mind, you are.”

Shi didn’t know what to say.

Seeing Shi was again speechless, Long laughed and said, “Come on, it’s just a joke.” And then he became serious again. “It is rare to see an assassin during the daytime. We can’t miss it, right?”

Shi stopped grumbling and went outside together with Long.

They saw a masked man in black fighting with the imperial guards.

But Shadow Guardians haven’t shown up yet.

However, Long believed that this assassin had nowhere to run away.

As expected, just as the man kicked off two guards and wanted to do a back flip to escape… he was stopped by two Shadow Guardians jointly.

Meanwhile, the surrounding porches were full of archers who were ready to shoot.

If the assassin dared to escape with his flying skills, he would experience the pain of numerous arrows penetrating his heart!

In the end, the assassin didn’t make it to escape, not because he didn’t want to, but he couldn’t.

Two Shadow Guards jointly suppressed him, including all other guards, the assassin got caught very soon.

“Remove his mask.” Long said coolly.

The assassin’s mask was immediately taken off by some guard.

The assassin kept still; his eyes remained sharp.

He looked like some kind of talent, but why would he end up being an assassin? More importantly, was he too confident or too stupid?

Did he think the guards were paid to do nothing as he came during daytime?

Long was about to say something until Xu You came to him.

“Fang Hui?”

Long squinted, “Hmm? Do you know him?”

Xu nodded and said. “Yes, he is the guard at Tianyin post.”

“Oh?” Long raised his eyebrows and threw a look at Shi, Shi nodded as if he understood something.

Later, Long ordered, “Bring the assassin in.”

The Shadow Guard escorted the assassin towards Qiankun Palace.

After having a seat, Long watched the man kneeling in front of him calmly.

Even though his eyes were fixed on him, Long didn’t say a thing.

On the other hand, Long waved at Xu You, who had something on the tip of his tongue. “Come here.”

Xu looked Fang Hui and then Long, after that, he moved towards Long slowly.

There was a sudden twitch in Fang’s eyes but Fang soon regained his composure.

But even though the twitch faded so soon, it was still noticed by Shi, who had been watching him after he was taken here by the guards.

Shi exchanged his look with Long, without being noticed by others.

Long, even though failing to notice the change of Fang Hui’s eyes, understood what Shi meant and nodded secretly.

Only Xu You had no idea what was inside the people’s mind who were present at that time. “Big brother.”

Long gave out a sound of “Hum” and asked “Is his name Fang Hui?”

“Yes.” Xu nodded, “He’s been working alongside Fang Shuoyang, and is maybe one of Fang Shuoyang’s best henchmen.”

“Oh…okay…” Long squinted. “Fang Shuoyang’s henchmen…”

Fang Hui gazed at Xu You and said, “I was here with the order of my master.”

“What does Fang Shuoyang want you here for?” Xu asked immediately.

“I want to talk with you privately.”

“This…”

Long had a faint smile. “What? You have now committed the crime of assassinating the Emperor and are still longing for a private talk?”

Fang Hui’s face finally changed and said, “Your Majesty, I didn’t have the intention of assassinating Your Majesty, I am only here for Mr. Xu, and gave the message of my master to him. If didn’t mean to do any harm to Your Majesty, please have a thorough inspection about that.”

“You broke into the palace during daytime and alerted the imperial guards. Even though you may not have any intention of assassination,  it is hard for so many people to remain silent about what they had seen…”

Xu’s face changed a bit and was pulled by Shi just when he was about to say something.

“Xu You, follow me, I have something to ask you privately.”

Xu hesitated. “Big brother Shi…”

“Let’s go in there.” Saying this with a determined tone, Shi didn’t give Xu a chance to disobey him.

Xu finally nodded and followed Shi in…

Seeing Xu compromised so easily, Fang felt a bit shocked since he didn’t expect Xu would trust  Long and Shi so much.

Long kept watching the man on his knees calmly.

“Say it, what does Fang wants you here for?”

“You Majesty, my master only had a few words for Mr. Xu, that’s it, you must believe me.”

“Then I am sorry, I don’t feel good about the way of asking a citizen to sneak into my palace and believing that I will not punish you. By the way, I am looking into what’s going on inside Tianyin post for my sworn brother. If you want to talk, talk as much and specific as you can. But if you refuse to do so… then I am gonna have to ask my dark guards to take care of you.”

Sweat started to ooze out from Fang’s forehead.

“Or, the prison of the Ministry of Punishments will do. Many guards saw you break into the palace during daytime and I have every reason to arrest you!”

More sweat began to ooze out on Fang’s forehead.

Long watched the man kneeling down there calmly. “So, have you figured out your speech? I am about to lose my patience.”

Fang gritted his teeth and said, “Your Majesty, pardon me please. I’m too reckless and should’ve been sentenced to death, but I only wanted to take a message to Mr. Xu under the command of my master, that’s it, please have a thorough inspection over this.”

Long waved at him after hearing this and said only “Well”, then he added, “bring him away, have a good interrogation of him, see what’s going on with Tianyin post.”

“Yes, Sir.” The Shadow Guards brought him away after receiving the order.
