This is an ordinary-looking woman.

The years don't seem to have left a mark on her body.

I couldn't tell her age, like twenty, like thirty, like forty.

When the people came to Fang Yuan and the others, Du Miaoyan reacted and blocked in front of Fang Yuan.

"Someone!"

Fang Yuan also got up.

Shouting loudly, he pulled out a short fire gun to defend himself.

"I heard that you caught me and beheaded me, why are you still afraid of me?"

Nie Yinniang stopped when she was still a meter away from Fang Yuan and said calmly.

Her voice was like a cold wind in the night, cold stabbing on her body, terrible and cold.

"Just a stopgap measure!"

"I don't know what happened when Nie Nuxia came late at night?"

Fang Yuan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

"I'm looking for you to settle accounts."

"The apprentice I worked so hard to cultivate finally betrayed me because of you, and you said what should I do?"

Nie Yinniang's voice was indifferent, and she said unhurriedly.

She stood there, invisibly giving people a great pressure.

"She didn't betray you because of me, she betrayed you because she wanted to repay my favor, what does it have to do with me?"

Fang Yuan frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice.

At this moment, Xue Bowu and some of the Fang Mansion guards arrived.

Not long after, Xue Rengui also appeared, standing next to Fang Yuan one after another.

The appearance of two innate divine power masters gave Fang Yuan a little more security.

"You dare to talk back?!"

Nie Yinniang's voice changed.

The atmosphere became awe-inspiring in vain.

Du Miaoyan's vigilance was raised to the extreme.

"Where's the?"

"What's wrong with your mouth, I still want to push your lungs!"

Xue Rengui said dissatisfied.

What else is there to pack here?

I slept the most soundly tonight, but I was woken up by this girl and had a big opinion of her.

"Look for death!"

Nie Yinniang's eyes were cold.

She suddenly flashed, like a ghost in the night.

Originally, he was dressed in black, but at this moment it seemed to have disappeared.

But the disappearance of the image and the real disappearance are completely different things, Xue Rengui and the others were shocked and instinctively resisted at the same time.

"Buzz!"

A cold light exploded.

A scream rang out.

Xue Rengui fell backwards, his arm scratched.

Just now, when he was in danger, he dodged the vital point.

But even so, it was still injured, which made him frightened.

And what made him even more frightened was that Nie Yinniang followed closely like a phantom, seeing that the dagger was about to kill him again.

"Arrogance!"

Du Miaoyan let out a coquettish cry and rushed towards Nie Yinniang.

She was as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, she was already facing Nie Yinniang.

But it was also separated with one blow and did not continue to be entangled.

Because there was no weapon in his hand, it was not cost-effective to fight, and he only shot to rescue Xue Rengui.

"Bowu, Rengui, copy the guy!"

Fang Yuan strode back.

Du Miaoyan, Xue Bowu, and Xue Rengui shot together.

The three of them surrounded Nie Yinniang in the middle and locked Nie Yinniang's escape route.

At the same time, the dog and other guards also surrounded Nie Yinniang and several people in the middle, and the small Zhuge crossbow was aimed at it.

"It's really surprising that there is such a master in a small Fang Mansion."

Nie Yinniang's eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at Xue Rengui coldly.

Her dagger flickered coldly, emitting a bloodthirsty glow.

She didn't immediately move after the blow didn't kill her.

With the killer's intuition, the three people in front of him are extraordinary.

Especially Du Miaoyan, a woman, brought her a trace of danger.

"Miaoyan, sword!"

Fang Yuan had already rushed back to the room and took out the long sword.

After the long sword was unsheathed, Du Miaoyan's momentum became a little more powerful.

"Fangfu has never been a place where you can come and go when you want to."

"You don't have to make a move, block her retreat, don't let her escape."

Du Miaoyan said coldly.

She moved again, and the sword exploded in the night.

Nie Yinniang dodged again, and it was difficult to catch her in the night.

But the dagger was hit by the long sword, and when it rang out, and it was accompanied by firelight, Nie Yinniang's figure could be seen.

The two separated again after several violent collisions.

"You're strong, but you're no match for me."

"If you still make a move, I'll send you on your way!"

Nie Yinniang said indifferently.

Du Miaoyan clenched the sword in his hand and did not speak.

"Miaoyan, don't act rashly!"

When Fang Yuan heard this, he immediately supported Du Miaoyan.

More than sixty guards surrounded it in unison, and the blockade was dead layer after layer.

At this distance, in this kind of space, even flies can't fly out.

Xue Bowu and Xue Rengui had already gotten their weapons and stared at Nie Yinniang.

But it was obvious that Xue Bowu was just staring at it defensively.

This guy refuses to fight with women.

"It's a surprise."

"It's been a long time since I've been in such a crisis."

A cruel sneer appeared at the corner of Nie Yinniang's mouth.

Her eyes sharpened like the glow of a cheetah in the night.

The atmosphere between the two sides is tense to the extreme, and killings could break out at any moment.

Fang Yuan didn't take it lightly, his attitude was unprecedentedly dignified, because the one in front of him was the number one assassin on the assassination list.

If you can do the first, you must have two brushes, which should not be taken lightly.

"Master, Your Majesty has a will!"

Just when the tension between the two sides was about to burst, a voice rang out outside.

It was a doorkeeper, and there were several people behind him, among whom Fang Yuan knew, it was Li Junxian, but he was behind a middle-aged man.

"Late at night, please forgive Fang Ling."

"I am Yuan Tiangang, and I am invited by His Majesty's order to ask Nie Yinniang to leave."

The middle-aged man led by him nodded to Fang Yuan, and then looked at Nie Yinniang, who was surrounded.

"She killed the door late at night today, and he may kill the door in the future."

"Just let go of the first person on the assassination list, I can't sleep at night."

Fang Yuan frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice.

He didn't want to be an enemy with Nie Yinniang.

But today the other party has forced the door.

In order to sleep peacefully, he had to raise the butcher knife.

It's one thing to be able to kill her, but you can't just let her go.

"Fang Ling, I am under the order of His Majesty!"

Yuan Tiangang was stunned, and then said in a deep voice.

Fang Yuan didn't speak, his brows furrowed even tighter.

"Poof, hahaha."

"I didn't expect you Yuan Tiangang to invite me personally!"

Nie Yinniang suddenly laughed.

The sound is different from before.

The two seem to know each other.

"Heh, don't you feel honored?"

"Fang Ling, please let down your guard, today's incident is just a misunderstanding."

"She doesn't mean to do anything to you, and I can guarantee that she won't make a move with you and the Fang Mansion."

Yuan Tiangang sneered at Nie Yinniang, then looked at Fang Yuan and said in a deep voice.

Fang Yuan didn't speak, nor did he let down his guard, not believing Yuan Tiangang who suddenly appeared.

Although this person is also a legend, he has never dealt with him and does not know what to do.

"Fang Yuan, what Yuan Tiangang means, is also what His Majesty means, Nie Yinniang will not make another move."

Li Junxian walked out and persuaded.

"You promise."

Fang Yuan squinted his eyes and looked at Nie Yinniang and said.

"Hmph, I'm the number one assassin on the assassination list, and I still want to show weakness to others?"

Nie Yinniang sneered and looked at Fang Yuan dissatisfied.

Fang Yuan immediately raised his hand, and the small Zhuge crossbows were all facing Nie Yinniang.

At the same time, Du Miaoyan and Xue Bowu are also ready to attack at any time.

"Nie Yinniang!"

Yuan Tiangang said in a low voice.

"Okay, okay, I promise."

"I promise not to attack Fang Yuan and Fang Mansion."

"I'm just teaching my apprentice a lesson tonight, and I'll just give you a warning by the way."

Nie Yinniang's face changed, and she finally accepted the dagger.

"Close!"

Fang Yuan took a deep breath and waved his hand.

With the emperor's order, it is impossible to kill Nie Yinniang.

But this is not the key, the key is that Fang Yuan didn't dare to say that he could really kill the other party.

As the number one master on the assassination list, with so many guards surrounded by bows and arrows, it is possible to fight his way out of the encirclement.

If she does it and she escapes, then she really can't sleep.

Before that, there was no hatred between the two sides.

"Let's go, Your Majesty wants to see you."

Yuan Tiangang looked at Nie Yinniang and said.

"Can I not go?"

Nie Yinniang chuckled.

"Nope."

Yuan Tiangang shook his head.

Nie Yinniang sighed and walked obediently towards Yuan Tiangang.

"Farewell!"

Yuan Tiangang turned around and left.

After Li Junxian and Fang Yuan saluted, they also left.

He came over tonight to prove Yuan Tiangang's identity to Fang Yuan.

"It's all gone."

Fang Yuan waved his hand.

The crowd slowly dispersed, and soon Xia Yuan and Du Miaoyan were left at the scene.

No, there was another person, that was Mo Cailing lying on the ground, she didn't know when she had passed out.

"This man. . . Tell the red lady to bring it down. ”

Fang Yuan frowned slightly, and finally called Hongxu Qingyuan.

It's not a way to ignore it like this, so let's stay in the house for now.

"Husband, this Nie Yinniang is very strong!"

"In a life-and-death battle, I may not be her opponent."

Du Miaoyan said with a solemn expression.

In terms of strength, she feels that she is similar to Nie Yinniang.

But Nie Yinniang is an assassin, and her assassination moves are mysterious and mysterious, and she is especially good at hiding her aura.

I didn't find it when I got so close just now, which shows that her hiding ability is extraordinary, and she will probably not be able to find it, so she will be successfully attacked.

"The emperor's assurances can still be trusted, and she shouldn't make another move."

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

The emperor promised that Nie Yinniang would not attack himself and others again.

If Nie Yinniang makes another move, it will be a slap in the face of the emperor, and the consequences are not something that ordinary people can imagine.

And he is about to become a member of the fourth grade, protected by the imperial court, Nie Yinniang dares to assassinate herself and Du Miaoyan is to provoke the imperial court.

When there was no hatred for each other, she shouldn't have done such a stupid thing.

"Yes."

Du Miaoyan relaxed a lot.

She believes in Li Shimin more than Fang Yuan.

With Li Shimin's assurance, she is indeed no longer afraid.

Afterwards, the couple went back to their room and went to bed.

I don't know if it's because of the tension and excitement just now, the two people who returned to the bed didn't feel sleepy.

"Miaoyan, let's make people."

Fang Yuan said suddenly.

"Okay, okay."

Du Miaoyan's voice trembled slightly.

I couldn't see her face at night, otherwise I would have found her blushing at the moment.

The next day, Fang Yuan went out refreshed.

Xue Bowu also went out with him, and Xue Jiaoyan and a few people sent him to the door.

Today's Xue Bowu is dressed in a mighty military outfit and wearing majestic armor, and sets out on the expedition.

Yes, today is the day of the Lingnan army, with Hou Junji in command, and Cheng Yanjin and others as generals.

and Qin Huaiyu, Cheng Chumo, Wei Chi Baolin, Li Danqiu and Xue Bowu led a small army as general captains.

This is a war to collect credit, and many second-generation soldiers have followed the expedition.

They rode horses and waved to the people in the streets.

Many people in Chang'an City spontaneously set out, shouting for their triumphant return.

In the crowd, Cui Runyu also happened to be here.

"Heh, do you think it's to pick up credit?"

Cui Runyu smiled and left the scene.

A few days have passed in a flash.

The ministers of the imperial court wrote every day: the top priority of Shangshu Province, the left and right servants are missing, and the emperor is asked to select important ministers to serve.

The Datang system is three provinces and six ministries, and the two servants of Shangshu Province are missing one after another, which is indeed not good, and many policies cannot be implemented quickly.

Even Fang Yuan's Chang'an order also felt that things had become slow, and he had no choice but to write a letter to request that the position of the left and right servants be implemented quickly, just like all the ministers.

A few days later, on the first day of the 11th month of the third year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin's appointment decree was finally issued, and there was a huge change in the court officialdom.

Fang Xuanling was promoted to the left servant of Shangshu, Li Jing was promoted to Zhongshu Ling, Hou Junji was promoted to Shangshu of the Military Department, Fang Yuan was promoted to Hubu Shilang, and Cui Yuanting was promoted to Chang'an Ling

When Fang Yuan received the Divine Decree of Promotion, there was no accident.

But when I heard the rewards from others, I was amazed.

Cui Yuanting and Cui Zhentang were dismissed and investigated last time, but Cui Zhentang was fine, and Cui Yuanting was fine.

Boling Cui's family, one of the five surnames and seven hopes, the energy is really not comparable to ordinary people, it is really powerful.

"Congratulations to Fang Ling Gaosheng!"

The county government celebrated to Fang Yuan.

They are all sighs and envy, even jealousy.

It was only after the promotion of Chang'an Ling from the history of assassination that he was promoted again.

Moreover, there is a lot of oil and water, and the power is second only to the household department of the ministry.

Up and down the county government, many people have better backgrounds than Fang Yuan, but they just don't have that life.

"This official has been in office for too short a time to help you get promoted."

"If you have time, you can go to the household department to find the official, and the official can help."

Fang Yuan said bluntly.

I am not afraid that this word will be spread.

When he was in Liaozhou, Fang Yuan also said the same.

Only by arranging cronies and supporting subordinates can we go further in officialdom.

But the period of Chang'an Ling is too short, and it is impossible to have too much trust with Zheng Mingzhu and others.

Therefore, the position of Chang'an Ling is the shortest during Fang Yuan's official period, and it is also the one who cultivates the least cronies, Xu Shihui and Zheng Jiu and other cronies of Liaozhou, and the rest are only half of You Chengzhou and others.

But the matter has come to this point, and there is no way but to send it after it arrives at the household department.

"Xie Fangling!"

Everyone thanked them.

On this day, Fang Yuan didn't leave until he got off work.

Back at Fangfu, Du Miaoyan and others set off fireworks to celebrate Fang Yuan's ascension.

Now fireworks have become a form of celebration and are used to celebrate achievements and so on.

Before the burning of Fangfu today, many families had already set off fireworks to celebrate the ascension of their masters.

"If you don't get drunk tonight, you won't go home!"

Fang Yuan said loudly.

Enter with Du Miaoyan.

On this night, Fang Fu also invited the eldest grandson Chong and Du He, as well as Princess Xiangcheng, as well as Ma Zhou and Qin Fangben and so on.

Tonight's Fang Mansion is destined to be a happy night, everyone is singing and dancing, talking and singing, and it doesn't end until late at night.

The next day, Fang Yuan went to the household department to take up his job!
