Time flew by, and Ying Zihao had already arrived at Danyang County on his horse.
Ying Zihao had only rested for half a day on the road. He had seen the east rise and the west fall, as well as the howling of wolves.
In order not to expose his identity, he always wore a silver fox mask on his face.
He felt that his identity had been exposed, causing the remnants of the Six Nations to come to him in batches. This would slow down the unlocking progress.
Moreover, his strength was extraordinary. The remnants of the Six Nations knew that they couldn't defeat him, so they would be in trouble if they didn't come looking for him.
He had two goals this time. One was to unlock the progress bar, and the other was to clear out this stronghold of the Six Nations.
He didn't want the remnants of the Six Nations to flee because of his recklessness. It would be a waste of his time, and it wasn't worth it.
Ying Zihao sat on his horse and recalled Zhang Han's words.
According to Zhang Han, after entering Danyang County, they would be able to find that place after walking east for a day.
Just as he was riding for six hours, a place called Chu County caught his attention.
"Chu County?"
"This name was suggested by the locals and Li Si.”
Ying Zihao had a question in his heart. The word 'Chu' had a special spirituality to it.
One had to know that the Chu Country had already been destroyed by the Qin Country. Now, there was still the Chu County here. This made him somewhat interested and wanted to go in and take a look.
Li Si proposed to use the prefecture and county system to manage the Qin State. The First Emperor, Ying Zheng, listened to Li Si's suggestion and decided to abolish the enfeoffment system throughout the country and use the prefecture and county system as the system for central control.
That was why Ying Zihao thought of Li Si's suggestion to name this place Chu County.
Ying Zihao changed the direction of the horse, and it galloped towards Chu County.
The city gate guards did not carry out their duties and allowed everyone to pass.
Ying Zihao remembered all of this. In the future, when he became the emperor, he would have to take all of these tests!
On the streets of Chu County, there were many things for sale, and carriages came and went frequently.
"I have the token of the Shadow Secret Guard here. Let's find the county magistrate first and ask about the situation.”
Ying Zihao's train of thought was very clear. He found a secret guard's token in the clothes that Zhang Han gave him.
Seeing the order was like seeing a person. The managers of every city in the Qin country recognized that this was the Shadow Secret Guard!
Before Ying Zihao entered Chu County, he had wanted to use his identity as the Crown Prince to show his cards. However, compared to the secret guards, this identity wasn't as useful.
He knew the faces of some managers. They took money from the remnants of the Six Nations and worked for them.
If this county magistrate informed the remnants of the Six Nations, they would definitely find a way to kill him.
If the remnants of the Six Nations were to mobilize their entire forces just to kill Ying Zihao, that would be fine.
What he liked the most was to have a group of people come over and let them die in peace.
However, if the remnants of the Six Nations were to come in batches, they would be able to escape.
This made Ying Zihao very unhappy. Simply put, they were killing too slowly!
The biggest advantage of being a Shadow Guard was that he did not have to worry about the enemy escaping. There might even be remnants of the Six Nations who took the initiative to bring him to the stronghold and kill him.
Outside the county office.
Ying Zihao stood at the entrance of the county government office. The horse beside him had already been placed in a stable.
He looked at the two guards at the door and didn't really want to talk to them, so he shook his feet and disappeared in front of the guards.
"Third Bro, there was someone standing there before, right?”
"Yeah, where is she? Why did she suddenly disappear?”
The two guards at the door were dumbfounded. They could only blame themselves for not seeing clearly.
At this moment, Ying Zihao had already arrived at the inner courtyard of the yamen. Most county magistrates would stay here.
Sure enough, in an open room, a person wearing a hat was sitting on a wooden table and writing a memorial with a brush.
"Found it."
After speaking, Ying Zihao slowly walked into the house.
When the people in the room saw Ying Zihao, they instantly stood up and wanted to scold him.
"You…"
Ying Zihao threw the token of the Shadow Secret Guard on the table. The man was so scared that he immediately walked to the side and bowed.
"Chu County Magistrate Deng Chuan greets Lord Shadow Secret Guard!”
"No need for formalities."
When Deng Chuan heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief. He was glad that the lord in front of him did not blame him for his rudeness.
"I was sent by General Zhang Han to wipe out the remnants of the six dynasties near Chu County.”
"County Magistrate Deng Chuan, do you know where the remnants of the Six Nations are?”
Ying Zihao's tone was filled with coldness. Deng Chuan couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine. He was afraid that the Shadow Guards were here to cause him trouble.
"Milord, we've already sent people to clean up the remnants of the Six Nations. It's just that the remnants of the Six Nations are too stubborn.”
Deng Chuan felt bitter as well and quickly explained the situation.
As the county magistrate, he was already very responsible. Whether it was the military camp or the affairs of the county, he was in charge.
"Oh? Tell me, why are they so tenacious?"
When Ying Zihao heard Deng Chuan's words, he silently nodded his head. This was somewhat similar to what Zhang Han had said.
"Chu County and the other counties have to pass through a mountain. They have occupied that mountain. Every time a caravan passes through, those remnants of the six dynasties will burn, kill, and rob.”

[P.S. Big shots, I probably won't be able to finish today's 10,000 words!]
The little brother decided to update all night and update tomorrow's version. If the big shots wanted to see it, they could wait until tomorrow morning!
Staying up late to read novels was indeed not good for the body.
