Miss Downcast and the Assassin (5)

On the palace of the six princes.

Wangyun Pavilion.

The moon is bright and the stars are thin, and the night is deep.

It was already a harsh winter, and it was snowing heavily this day, and it was getting heavier and heavier until the unitary hour stopped.

The snow in the yard is already a foot deep, and the sprinkler servants don't have time to clean it at all, because this Mr. Dongyuan has a lot of quirks, except for Sister Xiaocui at night, no one is allowed to enter this yard at all, so he can only stay until tomorrow morning.

At this moment, in front of the main house of Wangyun Pavilion, a maid wearing green clothes was waiting.

Painted with willow eyebrows and painted with light powder lipstick, such an ordinary face has a pair of unique eyes, black and white, clear and clear, but extremely ruthless and cold.

She tugged at the hem of her shirt a little uncomfortably.

In the end, he seemed annoyed, so he directly reached into the collar and was about to take out the steamed buns inside, but he suddenly recalled Zhai Fu's words:

'This steamed bun can't be dropped, no one can see it except you, otherwise your identity will be exposed.' ’

Yan Li frowned slightly.

It's just a steamed bun, how can it be related to whether the identity is exposed.

The Dark Cabinet is divided into five departments, which are in charge of intelligence, organs, assassination, and undercover functions. He was subordinate to assassination, and he had always only been in charge of killing the people on the assassination list, so why did he send him to collect information this time.

Just when he was waiting impatiently, there was a sound of the courtyard door pushing open in the distance.

Yan Li turned his eyes and looked-

It is a woman wearing a hat and can't see her face clearly, wearing a plain white long brocade dress, and the red plum is flourishing on the wide coat, extending from the skirt to the waist.

He knew in his heart that this was probably the target person of this trip - Dong Yuan.

Seeing the woman coming gracefully on the snow, without even looking at him, she pushed open the door and entered, and then waited there with her arms outstretched.

Do?

Yan Li's eyes explored, a little puzzled.

In this way, the two sides stood silent for a long time, and Dong Yuan seemed to be the first to get impatient, and said in a cold voice: "Stunned, untie the cloak." ”

Yan Li felt that this person's voice was so familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.

There were few voices that he could remember.

Because it is usually a scream, whether it is a man or a woman, young or old, those screams are almost the same as the ups and downs.

On weekdays, in the dark pavilion, communicate with him.....

Yan Li frowned and pondered.

It seems that there is no one else except Zhai Fu.

Who the hell is this person, the voice is so familiar, did he want to kill it before?

Qu Yan took off her cloak, only to find that it was very cold in the house, and the charcoal fire had already burned in the house at this time in the past, she was about to ask in a blink of an eye, but found that the maid was standing at the door with a stupid look.

Qu Yan has a headache.

I chose her because her name is also Xiaocui, and she is exactly the same as the maid in the original world, but she doesn't want to be able to do things, but her ability to do things is very different.

It looked a little clever the other day.

It's only been a few days, and I've been so lazy.

Never mind...

If she is not clever, she will mention a few more words.

After all, this is the Prince's Mansion, if she is driven away within a few days of coming to her to do business, this Xiaocui will definitely be severely punished. After being kicked out of the house, how can a weak woman survive in this era.

Qu Yan exhaled: "I'm going to take a bath, hurry up and prepare." ”

"Yes." Yan Li leaned over decently and retreated.

Then go to the small kitchen next to it, fill two large buckets of hot water that the other servants have boiled beforehand, and fill the tubs with one in each hand.

Qu Yan, who was nesting on a carved wooden chair and preparing to read, was directly frightened.

Strength... So big?

"Sir, take a bath." Yan Li said lightly, not worried about whether his voice would be exposed.

Because before doing this mission, he was forcibly dragged by Zhai Fu to the Intelligence Department for training to learn how to disguise and change his voice. Because Yan Li's learning ability is very strong, he was directly assigned to the post after only two days of training.

After hearing Xiao Cui's voice as usual, Qu Yan quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

She almost thought that her maid had been dropped just now, and there was no voice changer in this era, so she was too careful, and she had only known Xiao Cui for a few days, and it was normal for her to find out that she had a lot of strength today.

But since she experienced the last plane, even though she knew that Xiaocui was a woman, she was unwilling to let her serve and undress.

This is also a step forward for her, right?

But she didn't want that progress at all.....

**

Metropolitan Inspectorate.

In the Wugou platform, there was an old man in black sitting on the high seat, who was playing with the flying knife at the moment: "Yan left? ”

Zhai Fu stood below, waved his hand, and said, "Go." It's just that the lower officials are a little puzzled, why did the adults have to let Yan Li do this mission? He's always just assassinated, if it's exposed....."

The old man in black had a calm face: "Yan Li is a murder weapon, a murder weapon that will stain blood as soon as it comes out of the sheath." His murderous intent is too heavy, but Seventeen is already the chief assassin, if he becomes rebellious in the future, it will definitely be a big disaster, just like the last time he didn't report to the Dark Pavilion at all, he directly killed more than 400 knights, and he must be punished. ”

Zhai Fu sighed.

Yan Li is too young, and his position in the dark pavilion is too high, and his peers are respectful to him; He worked with some old people and elders, and he had never had any friends and was alone.

Such a person has too high martial arts and power, which will indeed make the superior jealous.

Because it is not terrible to be the best in the world of martial arts, what is terrible is that there is nothing that can make him feel afraid and bound.

Therefore, the pavilion master is planning to weaken Yan Li's power, send him an assassin to collect intelligence, and if he does a good job, he will continue to collect intelligence in the future; If you don't do it well, then punish it.

When you really encounter an assassination target that is difficult to solve, send him out again.
