Chapter 8
Cai Yong was a little panicked. He never thought that there would be someone ambushing here at this time. He glanced at Li Yuan and said, "Li Yuan, can you handle it?"

"It's just a mob, sir, just wait for me in the car!" Li Yuan swung his knife and killed the man in black.

Cai Yong nodded and returned to the carriage. Although he was worried, he could only leave it to Li Yuan. As a literati, he couldn't help him at all. Now he regretted not bringing more guards.

Cai Yong walked into the carriage, the sound of "clinking" weapons outside made him a little flustered, he clenched his hands tightly together, fearing that Li Yuan would not be able to resist, at the same time he was thinking about who was going to attack him, and was thinking, The sound of fighting outside suddenly stopped, it really came and went quickly.

Cai Yong was a little surprised, and hurried out to check, only to see that Li Yuan took out a cloth and leisurely wiped the blood on the knife, beside him were more than a dozen corpses of men in black, and there was one person who was not alive. He died, but he was obviously seriously injured, and his body was bleeding profusely. Cai Yong was in a cold sweat, thinking how long it took, and Li Yuan managed to kill more than a dozen men in black so quickly. This skill is really scary.

Li Yuan walked up to the seriously injured man in black, and took off his mask. He looked like a man in his 30s. Li Yuan pointed his sword at his throat and asked, "Who sent you?" Came to assassinate? If you tell me honestly, I can still consider to spare your life, otherwise don’t blame me for being rude.”

The man in black was rather stubborn, and said with a sneer, "You brat, don't even think about saying a word from me."

"You!" Li Yuangang was about to speak, but he found black blood gushing out of the mouth of the man in black. He let go of his hand quickly, and the man in black fell to the ground and twitched, and he lost his breath after a while.

"What's going on here?" Wang Yun couldn't help but look pale when he saw this scene.

Li Yuan replied: "My lord, this person must have hidden poison in his mouth. After the assassination failed, he took the poison and committed suicide, so as not to be tortured and tortured to expose the person behind the scenes."

Wang Yun nodded, doubts arose in his heart, Li Yuan walked up to Cai Yong and asked, "My lord, the man in black has been dealt with, shall we continue to go to Master Situ's mansion?"

"Go, of course." Cai Yong now truly understands how powerful Li Yuan is, and at the same time he feels a little fortunate to have recruited this young man with strong martial arts skills.
After arriving at Situ Wangyun's mansion, Cai Yong and Li Yuan entered the study together under the leadership of his servants, and saw that Wang Yun was already waiting inside. After meeting, the two greeted each other, and Li Yuan bowed his hands to Wang Yun.

Wang Yun saw that Li Yuan was handsome and talented, so he couldn't help asking: "Bo Jie, who is this young man?"

Cai Yong took Li Yuan's hand and introduced: "This is the new guard I recruited today. He is very skilled in martial arts. His surname is Li Mingyuan, and his style name is Wenzhong. I was attacked when I came just now. Fortunately, Wenzhong is here, otherwise I will definitely come Not here for you."

Because Li Yuan saved his life just now, and his martial arts skills are excellent, Cai Yong intended to reuse him, so he didn't think his status was low, so he personally introduced him to Wang Yun.

"You were attacked just now? Were you injured?" Wang Yun was quite surprised, he didn't expect someone to be so bold as to attack the current minister in the important place of the capital.

"It's okay, thanks to Wen Zhong who saved my life." Cai Yong shook his head.

"Bo Jie, do you think it was that person who did it?" Wang Yun thought for a while, and seemed to have guessed who did it. He glanced at Li Yuan who was at the side, and didn't say his name to avoid suspicion.

Li Yuan knew that the two were discussing important matters, and he was not qualified to listen here, so he cupped his fists and said, "Master, I'm going out first."

Cai Yong waved his hand, "It doesn't matter, Wen Zhong, I can trust you, and you are so skilled, I will entrust you with many things in the future, just stay and discuss with us."

"Okay, master." Li Yuan said gratefully, in fact, he never thought that Cai Yong would trust him so much.

"Wen Zhong, you are fighting the assassins tonight, who do you think will send them?" Cai Yong has already guessed who sent them, and he is sure that he thinks the same as Wang Yun, but he intends to test Let's see if Li Yuan has this insight.

Li Yuan glanced at Cai Yong, and said hastily, "Subordinates dare not speak rashly."

"It doesn't matter, just say it, I won't blame you."

"Then let me tell you my humble opinion. If I'm not wrong, the person who instigated the assassination of the master tonight should be the one who goes up - Zhang Rang."

Hearing this, Cai Yong and Wang Yun glanced at each other, they both saw the surprise in their eyes, they naturally guessed that it was Zhang Rang who did it, but Li Yuan was only a nurse, and he was not very old. Why did he guess so accurately.

Cai Yong couldn't help asking: "Why do you think it was Zhang Rang's hand?"

Li Yuan showed a confident smile on his face, and said: "Everyone knows that the master and Wang Situ are good ministers of the court, and they have made countless contributions to my great man. However, Zhang Rang is no more than an eunuch, but he is loved by the emperor because of his good words. In fact, it is chaotic, robbing the imperial prestige, thieves and loyalists, instigating traitors, and messing up my Han dynasty. I often hear that Zhang Rang is at odds with the master and Wang Situ, and is against you everywhere, so I think it is Zhang Rang hand."

After hearing this, both Cai Yong and Wang Yun could not speak for a long time, and they were amazed in their hearts. They did not expect Li Yuan to have such insight at such a young age, which is really rare.

Li Yuan was not surprised to see the surprise on the faces of Cai Yong and Wang Yun, and he was a little proud. With his experience beyond 2000 years, he knew these things clearly, and continued: "It's a pity that the Son of Heaven prefers to listen to sweet words. I deeply believe in Zhang Rang's words, but I don't know that honest words are harmful to the ear, and good medicine is good for the disease. It is really a pity for the painstaking efforts of the master and Wang Situ."

Li Yuan knew that there was no such thing as an attack on Wang Yun in history, but the attack that happened tonight is likely to have changed the course of history because of his arrival.

Wang Yun sighed, "I have been an official for many years, but Wen Zhongyou is the only one who can know our hearts deeply."

Seeing that Li Yuan saw the current situation so thoroughly, Cai Yong continued to ask: "Wen Zhong, what would you do if you encountered a situation like this tonight?"

"My lord, if you report to the emperor tomorrow what happened tonight, Zhang Rang will definitely pretend that he doesn't know anything. Even if the emperor orders an investigation, I guess Zhang Rang will intervene, and then find a dead ghost to take the blame. It will be revealed."

Wang Yun snorted coldly: "Hmph, Zhang Rang is really hateful, is there no way we can cure him?"

"Wang Situ, don't be angry. As the saying goes, there are gods three feet up. People are doing it, and the sky is watching. I think Zhang Rang is about to suffer retribution. I believe that even if Zhang Rang is exposed to the emperor, the emperor will not believe it." , On the contrary, I will think that you are the ones who slandered Zhang Rang, not to mention that you have no proof and no certificate, and you can't do anything to him." Li Yuan believes that keeping silent is the best way now.

Wang Yun thought for a while, and felt that what Li Yuan said was correct. Now that Emperor Ling is protecting Zhang Rang so much, it is really impossible to touch him.

"What Wen Zhong said is quite reasonable. You have such insight. It would be a pity if you only become a nursing home." Wang Yun found that Li Yuan was not simple, and his unique vision was clearer than those who were superior.

Hearing this, Li Yuan quickly knelt down and said: "I have heard for a long time that Master Cai Yong is a great sage in the world. This opportunity has been appreciated by Master Cai, please don't be offended by Master Cai and accept me as a disciple."

Cai Yong didn't expect Li Yuan to have such a change of heart, but he thought that he saved his life, and he really had extraordinary talents, so he moved to accept the idea of ​​apprentices.

Wang Yun laughed loudly: "Hahahaha, Bo Jie, I think Wenzhong is so sincere, he put down his body to become a nursing home in order to study, I think you should accept him as your student, just based on his turning around tonight." Words are enough to be your apprentice."

Cai Yong stroked his gray beard and said: "Since Wang Situ also admires you so much, then I will accept you. I hope you will be successful in your studies and contribute to my big man."

"Disciple, remember the teaching carefully." Li Yuan quickly thanked him.
