After transmigrating into the book, the prime minister always wants to farm with me.

Chapter 479 Enjoying life even more than the Emperor
As soon as Pei Yuanjun's carriage left, people in the shadows quietly followed.

Even if the assassination mission fails, as long as the Prime Minister's identity is revealed outside the city gate and everyone is told that the Prime Minister left the capital without imperial decree, the mission will still be successful.

And this was also when he was under imperial orders and was highly valued by the emperor!

Then the Emperor can punish him for deceiving the Emperor and showing contempt for imperial authority. There's no intention to bring down the Prime Minister all at once; this is merely the first step in luring him into a trap!

This would erode the Prime Minister's reputation among the people. After all, the Prime Minister had promoted factories nationwide and helped many impoverished people escape poverty and live a better life. In particular, the people of Peixin Village, out of gratitude to Qi Yunran and the Prime Minister, would send the Prime Minister their annual tribute rice free of charge!

As a result, the Prime Minister's residence ate tribute rice all year round, enjoying a lifestyle even more luxurious than the Emperor's!

This led to the people having a blind respect for the Prime Minister!

When Qi Yunran disembarked, the guards made them wait for a while.

When they disembarked, their guards informed them that Pei Yuanjun had left first and that they should follow them back to the capital via a secret passage for their safety.

Qi Yunran was initially furious, but when she realized why they had to take the secret passage, she knew that Pei Yuanjun must have encountered danger.

He took the initiative and lured the people hiding in the shadows away.

Opening the Eye of Illusion, one could see that Pei Yuanjun's carriage was heading towards the capital, where it was being ambushed by a group of black-clad assassins ten miles outside the city gates.

A hint of worry flashed in Qi Yunran's eyes. Not knowing what he was planning, she had no choice but to obey the guards' orders and follow them through the secret passage back to the capital.

Pei Yuanjun stared coldly and bloodthirstily at the man in black before him.

The men in black exchanged a cold glance with each other, then immediately drew their swords and charged forward.

Upon seeing this, Pei Yuanjun's eyes turned bloodshot, and a long sword appeared out of thin air in his hand, startling the black-clad assassins.

What kind of move is this? Feeling apprehensive, I braced myself and went for it. I saw Pei Yuanjun wielding his long sword, sometimes slashing horizontally and diagonally, sometimes charging straight at me. No one could escape the sword in his path.

The man in black was completely shocked by his methods. The Prime Minister actually possessed unparalleled martial arts skills? And the Emperor had never received any news about it?
While they were still shocked by the speed and accuracy of Pei Yuanjun's sword strike, their necks had already been severed by Pei Yuanjun's sharp sword.

Pei Yuanjun sheathed his sword, looked expressionlessly at the corpse of the man in black on the ground, and a cold smile appeared on his lips.

They got back into the carriage and continued on their way, while the two women inside never got off.

As soon as Pei Yuanjun left, another person emerged from behind the tree and immediately gave the signal to activate the second plan.

So, as soon as Pei Yuanjun and his entourage arrived outside the capital, the guards at the city gates, citing their visit as part of a cultural exchange between four states and to prevent assassins from infiltrating the capital, ordered everyone to dismount and be inspected.

Pei Yuanjun alighted from the carriage, and the black-clad man in the shadows immediately noticed something and began gesturing behind the crowd.

The soldiers were immediately overjoyed, thinking their chance to make a name for themselves had come.

Then, the soldier looked at Pei Yuan arrogantly and said, "Take off your mask, and the two women behind you wearing cloaks. I find you suspicious by hiding like this."

After speaking, he looked at Pei Yuanjun provocatively. There was already a long queue at the city gate, with many people wanting to enter the city. When they heard the soldiers say this, they immediately moved a few meters away from Pei Yuanjun and his group.

It would be bad if they were captured by the soldiers and tried to resist, and ended up getting hurt.

Pei Yuanjun turned around and looked calmly at the large empty space around him!

So Pei Yuanjun pretended to be furious: "How dare you! Do you know who I am?"

Upon hearing this, the soldier was overjoyed and said, "Hehe... I really don't know who you are. Why don't you take off your mask and let us see your face, so we can see which important person from the capital you are?"
