Chapter 1663: Minister of Works?

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

She only left after she changed her clothes.

After arriving, she admired the flowers in the backyard and stayed for dinner. Only then did Shao Yucen plan to go back.

She happened to bump into Shao Zhongxi, who had just returned from the posthouse. She hurriedly bowed and greeted him.

Shao Zhongxi was still as cold as ever. Although he didn’t really like this niece of his, she was still his elder brother’s daughter. Furthermore, it was dark outside, so he sent soone to escort Shao Yucen back.

Halfway through the escort, they encountered people from the Ministry of Works holding torches and chasing after sothing. Moreover, the one leading the chase was actually the Minister of Works.

It was obvious that sothing big had happened.

“What happened?” Shao Zhongxi’s n quickly reined in their horses.

Minister Zhou was running and recognized Shao Zhongxi’s n. He said, “Soone sneaked into the Ministry of Works and tried to steal the cannon and gunpowder blueprints. Fortunately, I stayed back at work. I noticed sothing strange and quickly found the thief. That person had his face covered, so I don’t know who it is. However, he was stabbed by one of our people before he tried to make his escape. He went this way. Look, the blood is going that way. Let’s go!” he shouted at the people who were with him.

Shao Zhongxi’s n naturally wanted to help chase after the culprit, but they had no choice but to send Shao Yucen back.

The carriage suddenly stopped. Shao Yucen had already peeked out from the carriage and heard the Minister of Works. She also saw the blood stains on the ground. It had indeed andered in the direction the Minister of Works was chasing.

She said to the n, “Go after them. I already have a few people with . I don’t need you guys to protect .”

“Will do!” Shao Zhongxi’s n also went after him.

Only then did Shao Yucen let them drive the carriage ho.

When she returned, Shao Yucen went to wash up and sleep in her room. However, when she was the only one left in the room, she stood behind the screen and was about to undress when a bloody hand suddenly covered her mouth from the back door. A dagger was pressed against her waist. Her eyes instantly widened, her face turned pale, and her entire body trembled.

Tears even started to fall from her eyes .

Based on the thick arms of the person behind her, she knew that it was a man.

“I won’t kill you, but if you make it so that soone hears you, I just might.” the man said in a low voice. Although his voice was not loud, it was fierce.

Shao Yucen nodded her head vigorously. She was so scared that tears kept falling. She had never encountered such a situation before.

After she agreed, only then did the man stop covering her mouth. His breathing was a little erratic. He looked injured and said, “Get dicine. Now. If anyone notices that sothing is wrong, you will die.”

At this point, the man moved the dagger in his hand as if he was about to stab Shao Yucen.

Shao Yucen trembled.

How could she dare alert the others that sothing was wrong?

She quickly wiped her tears and tried her best to calm herself down. She looked calm as usual.

The man held her hostage and walked to the door. She opened the door and only revealed her head. She shouted to the servant girl sitting on the steps outside, “Bring so dicine. I accidentally cut my hand just now.”

The two servant girls were frightened and quickly went to get the dicine. They even wanted to co in and bandage Shao Yucen.
