Late at night.
After the two guards waited for the other guards to arrive, one of them headed to the east of Xianyang Palace, while the other headed to the west.
One of the guards was Zhao Gao's subordinate, while the other was from the Meng Clan.
Fusu's residence was located in the east of Xianyang Palace, while Zhao Gao's residence was located in the west.
......
At Zhao Gao's residence.
The originally quiet night was disrupted by a rush of footsteps.
In the attic where Zhao Gao lived, a brazier was lit, and two figures appeared in the room.
These two figures were Zhao Gao and the guard who had just left.
The guard in Qin armor said to Zhao Gao,""Milord, something bad has happened!"
Zhao Gao's originally gloomy face became even colder after hearing this, and his tone became even sharper."If it's not really a big deal, then you can take your own head.”
The guard looked at Zhao Gao and could not help but be afraid. He said with a trembling voice,"At night, His Majesty suddenly sent for General Zhang Han to find Fifth Young Master.”
"This subordinate heard that Fifth Young Master said that he dreamed of an immortal, and the immortal taught him immortal techniques.”
"His Majesty also said that Great Qin's ruler could not be a benevolent ruler, but he had to be a ruler with absolute power.”
Under Zhao Gao's gaze, the guard hurriedly finished what he had heard.
After Zhao Gao heard this, he didn't say anything. Instead, he supported his chin with his hand and was silent for more than ten seconds.
The silent night became even stranger.
The flames in the brazier seemed to feel the cold air blowing over, flickering.
The guard still maintained his respectful posture, and a few drops of sweat dripped down his neck.
"You may leave."
"Yes, sir!"
After the guard heard Zhao Gao's order, he hurriedly walked out of the attic.
"Fifth Young Master, Young Master Hao!"
Zhao Gao muttered as he walked towards the window.
"Immortal, live forever."
"You really have good intentions."
The corner of Zhao Gao's mouth curled up. He seemed to have understood what Ying Zihao was trying to convey to Ying Zheng. If Ying Zihao was given the position of Crown Prince, the immortal would come over.
Ying Zheng, if you want to live forever, then give Ying Zihao the position of Crown Prince.
"Just which faction dares to interfere in the internal affairs of our Great Qin Empire?”
Zhao Gao couldn't understand. An honest and well-behaved person who had been quiet for more than ten years had suddenly appeared at this moment. Moreover, he had come out in the form of an immortal's bestowment.
"Since he dares to show up at this moment, then the power behind Ying Zihao will definitely be able to fight against the Meng family and me.”
However, there were not many places that could compete with these two forces.
One was the Yin-Yang School, one was the Mohist School, one was the Daoist School, and the rest were the militarists and the farmers.
Zhao Gao thought about it, but he couldn't come up with a conclusion.
After he closed the window, he stood with his hands behind his back and slowly said,"Go find a few assassins, the kind with brains. Don't show yourself.”
Out of fear of Qin Shihuang, he did not ask the Six Sword Slaves to probe.
After all, this was Xianyang City, and there were also the Shadow Guards here. If the Six Sword Slaves were to test Ying Zihao, wouldn't it be a slap to Ying Zheng's face?
Zhao Gao was indeed good at placing himself in a safe position.
Two figures flashed past Zhao Gao and passed through the door.
····
On the other side, inside Fusu Palace.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Fu Su, who had already fallen asleep, was awakened by a knock on the door.
"Young Master, I have something to report!"
"Come in."
The guard's voice came from outside the door. He helped Su out of bed and opened the door.
When the guard saw the door open, he immediately knelt down and said,"Tonight, Fifth Young Master will be heading to His Majesty's chambers.”
Then, he continued," The Fifth Young Master told His Majesty that he was bestowed with a technique by an immortal and became a Connate Cultivator in a day.”
"He also said that the Immortal would come back to find him in a few days.”
The guard's words stunned Fu Su. It was already late at night, and he, who was a little tired, instantly woke up at this moment.
"Fifth Brother, I didn't think that Fifth Brother would have someone backing him. However, Great Qin only has me and Eighteenth Brother.”
Even though Fu Su's words were a little arrogant, everyone in the Great Qin Empire knew that only these two Princes could become the ruler of this empire.
He helped the guard up and asked,"Is there any other news?"
"That's all I have for now," the guard replied hurriedly.”
Fu Su and the Meng Clan had already formed a faction. Since Fu Su knew about this, Meng Tian must know about it as well.
However, it was already late at night and it was not good to disturb Meng Tian.
Therefore, Fu Su nodded at the guard and said,""Very good. At daybreak, inform General Meng Tian of this matter and invite him to the mansion as a guest.”
"Yes, Your Highness!"
The guards of Fu Su's faction now addressed Fu Su as His Highness.
After all, in this world, who didn't know that Fu Su was most likely to become the second emperor of Qin?
"Since I already know this news, Zhao Gao must know as well.”
Fu Su sat on the bed and thought carefully.
He had never had any conflicts with his fifth brother, Ying Zihao. He knew Ying Zihao's personality and knew that he wouldn't do something like this.
Behind the scenes, there must be someone who was ordering Ying Zihao to do all of this.
"Zhao Gao, you must be panicking right now.”
"Father, you are very eager to live forever!”
Fu Su also understood that what his father, Ying Zheng, wanted the most was immortality. If there was any news about immortality, his father would definitely search for it crazily.
Regardless of whether this was a real immortal's bestowment or a fake one, as long as it was just a gimmick, Ying Zheng would definitely pursue it relentlessly.
......
The sun had risen.
Xianyang City became lively.
In the streets and alleys, hawkers were hawking jewelry and food. Horses, carriages, and pedestrians shuttled through the bustling streets.
After a day, Ying Zihao's nervous expression gradually relaxed.
In his previous life, he was a proper otaku. Now that he had transmigrated to the Qin Dynasty and had the help of the system, he was definitely going to be the second emperor of the Qin Dynasty. No one could snatch him away.
"Oh right, there's also the daily mission. A beautiful day begins in the morning.”
Since he had been reborn, Ying Zihao didn't want to feel wronged. Since he was here, he wanted to be the strongest.
Just as he was about to do push-ups, a crisp and sweet voice sounded.
"Fifth Brother, quickly come and welcome your cutest sister!”
