Chapter 139 Assassination



The little eunuch said, "They are pitiful people too. Let them vent their anger; it will make them feel better."

Yan Yu'an felt a bit angry; why should a little eunuch have to bear the consequences of someone else's mistakes?

Is there any justice left in this world?

However, he was helpless.

There are countless injustices, and it's impossible to manage them all.

"What brings you here, sir?" Yan Yu'an asked.

"Give this amulet to the young master!" The little eunuch stretched out his hand, his eyes full of urgency.

Yan Yu'an looked suspicious and reached out to take it.

The young eunuch squeezed the peace charm tightly, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.

Yan Yu'an looked at Ping Anfu and nodded.

The young eunuch knew that Prince Yan had understood his intentions, and only then did he leave with peace of mind.

After the eunuch left, Yan Yu'an quietly removed the amulet.

There's an ambush in Wutong Alley.

The font is crooked.

Yan An was unsure whether the handwriting belonged to the young eunuch.

He just didn't know where he heard that someone wanted to assassinate him.

Yan Yu'an tore the note into pieces and threw it into the lake.

It seems this journey out of the city is not going to be peaceful.

He walked out of the palace without making a sound.

He always felt like there was a pair of eyes watching him from behind.

Yan and An did not linger.

Regardless of whether the eunuch's information was true or false, he would be cautious.

Back at his residence, Marquis Yongning made a rare appearance in his courtyard.

Seeing her son become successful.

Marquis Yongning also showed a kinder face to his son.

"Yu'an, you performed exceptionally well before the Emperor this time, bringing honor to the family," said Marquis Yongning with a smile.

"Hmm!" Yan Yu'an replied succinctly, not saying a single extra word to his father.

Marquis Yongning waved his hand awkwardly and said, "By the way, be careful while you're out. Things haven't been peaceful in the city lately, so if you don't have anything to do, you shouldn't go out today."

Yan Yu'an felt a chill run down his spine. Could it be as the little eunuch had said, that someone was trying to assassinate him, and that even his father had become a suspect?

"Yes," Yan Yu'an replied.

He wondered who was trying to kill him.

Wutong Alley was the only way from the palace to the Yongning Marquis's residence. Its complex terrain made it easy to hide.

If there really was an ambush, the other side must have come prepared.

Yan and An changed their route, bypassing Wutong Alley.

We're leaving the capital tomorrow, so there's no need to create unnecessary trouble.

But in this way, the enemy failed and it's uncertain whether they will have any follow-up moves.

Just as he was pondering, he heard a soft footstep outside the door. Yan Yu'an immediately became alert and leaped behind the door.

A dark figure slowly approached, holding a gleaming dagger in its hand.

Taking advantage of their unpreparedness, Yan Yu'an swiftly made his move.

Inside the house, there were sounds of fighting.

I never expected there would be so many men in black.

It seems the other party is determined to sabotage his trip to the Northwest.

Once you beat him down, he won't be able to leave even if he wants to.

Yan Yu'an looked at the man in black, and he immediately jumped over the wall to get out.

He dared not take the risk, as he had parents and a large family at home.

If the assassin is lured out, he will be the only one in danger.

But the men in black weren't about to let him succeed, and they swarmed forward.

Suddenly another group of people appeared.

They separated Yan and An from the man in black.

The two sides started fighting.

Yan and An had no opportunity to use their talents.

Seeing that he couldn't gain any advantage, the man in black immediately climbed over the wall and left.

The group that rescued the person immediately jumped over the wall and left.

Yan and An stood in the courtyard, looking completely bewildered.

Who are these people? Who wants his life, and who wants to save him?
