Xianyang City, the palace.
At this moment, in the corridor, the young emperor Ying Zheng was walking slowly.
Behind him, there were more than ten palace maids and inner servants following him in small steps.
The atmosphere was a little heavy.
All of a sudden, Ying Zheng stopped in his tracks and walked to the handrail of the corridor. He raised his head and looked up at the afterglow of the setting sun, his eyes shining brightly.
At this moment, seeing Ying Zheng's expression, one of the red-haired palace attendants understood what he meant. He waved his hand, gesturing for those palace maids to leave.
Soon, only the red-haired chamberlain and Ying Zheng were left in the corridor.
It was not until this moment that the expression on Ying Zheng's face changed slightly, turning a little melancholic.
"Hey!"
Sighing, Ying Zheng continued blandly," I did not expect that this Lu Buwei would be so bold as to kill Ying Zongzheng, an old minister of the Great Qin Empire, right in front of all the officials of the Great Qin Empire. He is truly looking down on the dignity of the royal family of the Qin Empire.”
The red-haired chamberlain was speechless.
After a long while, when Ying Zheng had vented the depression in his heart, the red-haired chamberlain said in a low voice,""Your Majesty, Ying Zongzheng's actions are probably for Your Majesty.”
Hearing the red-haired chamberlain's words, Ying Zheng could not help but smile bitterly and sigh,"
"Sigh, how could I not know? However, Ying Zongzheng still underestimated Lu Buwei's strength. A mere rumor is no threat to him at all.”
"Zhao Gao, do you believe that Xianyang City will fall into a bloody storm?”
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Zhao Gao was stunned for a moment, then he said in surprise,""A net!"
Ying Zheng did not say anything, but merely looked at the setting sun with a misty look in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, Lu Buwei wouldn't do that, would he? After all, if he did that, who knows how many people would die in this fishing boat fight.”Zhao Gao said hesitantly.
"Hehe, you won't?"
A disdainful smile appeared on Ying Zheng's face as he said," Lu Buwei, this man has wild ambitions, and everyone knows about it. What can't he do?”
" This…" Zhao Gao choked.
That's right, Lu Buwei was a person who would do anything for power. What could he not do?
Thinking of this, Zhao Gao couldn't help but look at the thin young emperor.
Looking at Ying Zheng's lonely back, Zhao Gao could not help but sigh in his heart," Sigh, His Majesty has endured too much at such a young age!
"Zhao Gao, get ready. I want to go out of the palace to relax.”
Suddenly, Ying Zheng's words startled Zhao Gao, who was still deep in his thoughts." What? Your Majesty, you want to leave the palace?"”
"Yes!" Nodding his head, Ying Zheng turned to Zhao Gao and said,""Why, why not?"
"This…"
Zhao Gao's expression changed several times before he said speechlessly,"Your Majesty, you should at least inform us in advance when you leave the palace so that the palace can prepare. The dignity of a monarch cannot be lost!”
"Don't, don't, don't!"
Waving his hand, Ying Zheng said,"
"I just want to go out and relax. Lu Buwei's eyes are everywhere in the Xianyang Royal Palace.”
"Anyway, I don't care. You have to make arrangements for me. I will leave the palace tonight and go to Nuoda's Xianyang City for a stroll!”
After saying that, Ying Zheng turned around and was about to leave.
However, after taking a few steps, he seemed to have thought of something. Ying Zheng turned his eyes, looked at Zhao Gao and said,""Zhao Gao, remember, this time I'm going to go out in civilian clothes. Don't make a big fuss. The most important thing is to get rid of Lu Buwei's eyes, understand?”
" This... Your Majesty..." Zhao Gao stood where he was with a bitter look on his face, looking at Ying Zheng, who had walked far away before he could reply.
Sigh, this young emperor was really willful!

Late at night, Xianyang City, Heavenly Fragrance Tower.
At this moment, Qin Mu had already received the news from the net that Lu Buwei wanted to see him.
Furthermore, Qin Mu had also heard about what happened in the imperial court of Xianyang.
"Hehe, Lu Buwei is really something!”
Standing in front of the window sill of the room, Qin Mu looked at the bright moon and laughed softly.
"What, is Milord going to the Prime Minister's Estate?”Hu Ji asked worriedly from behind.
Turning his head back, Qin Mu looked at Hu Ji who was standing behind him and the two women who were standing with a solemn expression. He remained silent.
"Milord, this time, let the Soul Extinguisher accompany Milord!”
Suddenly, Soul Transference Extinguisher spoke in unison and looked at Qin Mu with anticipation.
Seeing this, Qin Mu gave a helpless and bitter laugh. He knew that the two girls were eager to prove themselves and were also worried about his safety.
That was because Qin Mu didn't seem like he was working for Lu Buwei at all. There was even some disdain hidden in his words.
This made the women understand that the lord in front of them did not seem to be on the same side as Lu Buwei, the prime minister of the Great Qin Empire.
Shaking his head, Qin Mu looked at the two women and said,"
"Soul Transference, Soul Extermination, I know you two are eager to prove yourself, and I know you two are worried about my safety. But don't worry, Lu Buwei won't do anything to me this time, so I'm still safe.”
"However, Hu Ji, the two of you need to protect your big sister Hu Ji in this Heavenly Fragrance Tower. Do you understand?”
The two girls looked at each other and said in unison,"Yes, sir!"
Nodding his head in satisfaction, Qin Mu picked up a good long sword on the table and turned around.""The three of you should sleep early tonight. I know what to do with my safety.”
" But..." Hu Ji wanted to say something more but was stopped by Qin Mu.
After stopping Hu Ji, Qin Mu didn't stay any longer and walked out of the room.

Xianyang City.
At this moment, the streets of Xianyang were brightly lit and quite lively. However, there was one street that was unusually quiet.
This was because there were many residences of Great Qin's nobles on this street. Most importantly, one of the luxurious residences belonged to the most powerful person in Great Qin, Prime Minister Lu Buwei.
At this moment, standing at the entrance of this incomparably luxurious mansion, Qin Mu's expression was extremely solemn.
At this moment, the two guards at the entrance of the manor came forward and sized up Qin Mu with cautious expressions.
"Who is it that dares to stay at the entrance of the Prime Minister's estate?”
One of the guards shouted coldly.
Upon hearing this, Qin Mu smiled." Tonight, I'm invited by the Prime Minister to meet you.”
As he spoke, Qin Mu took out an invitation card from his bosom. It was sent by the Prime Minister's Estate.
When they saw the invitation, the two guards 'expressions changed. They hurriedly bowed and said,
"This subordinate didn't know that Your Excellency was the honored guest of the Prime Minister.”
"Milord, follow this subordinate here. The Prime Minister has been waiting for you for a long time.”
Qin Mu nodded and followed one of the guards into the Prime Minister's Estate.
Upon entering the Prime Minister's estate, he felt that the interior of the estate was different from the luxurious exterior of the Heavenly Fragrance Tower. There was a hint of nobility within.
