An hour later.
The battle cries outside the carriage finally stopped.
Right at this moment, Zhao Gao lifted the curtain of the carriage and cast his gaze towards Ying Yun.
Ying Yun stared at him, only to see that his face was covered in blood and there were many injuries on his body.
"Why didn't young master Ying Yun lend a hand just now?”
Zhao Gao stared at Ying Yun, killing intent flashing in his eyes.
"Impudent! You're just a middle-carriage manor token, how dare you speak to me like this?!”
Along with Ying Yun's voice, a powerful emperor aura radiated from his body.
Seeing this, Zhao Gao was stunned at first, then he quickly cupped his hands and said,"This old servant was muddle-headed for a moment. I hope Young Master can forgive me.”
Huhai looked at Ying Yun, unable to speak for a long time.
His eyes were filled with fear.
"What's going on? Why do I have the urge to worship him?”
Huhai was startled at first, but he soon recovered and didn't dare to look at Ying Yun again.
"It must be the effect of the Emperor's Fury that was awarded to him by the Wisdom Rankings. Damn it, why did he give such a good reward to Ying Yun?”
Huhai clenched his fists and revealed an unwilling expression.
He had always thought that Ying Yun was inferior to him no matter how he compared himself.
However, after the Wisdom Ranking appeared, he realized that he couldn't compare to Ying Yun.
This difference was hard for him to accept.
"This is the only time. If you dare to disrespect me again, don't blame me for being ruthless!”
"Yes, this old servant understands."
"Have the assassins been dealt with?" Ying Yun asked.”
"It's settled. This old servant has already investigated clearly. The people who came to assassinate His Majesty are the same group of people we met at the sand dune.”
"But don't worry, Young Master. This old servant has already killed them all.”
"That's good. Let's continue moving forward."
"Yes."
Zhao Gao responded and retreated.
When he turned around, he suddenly froze on the spot.
"What happened? Why was I so respectful to him just now?”
Thinking back to the situation just now, Zhao Gao couldn't believe it.
"Looks like it should be the effect of the Emperor's Wrath. Why is this Ying Yun's luck so good? Looks like I have to think of a way to get on the rankings.”
In Zhao Gao's opinion, if Ying Yun didn't have the Emperor's Fury, he wouldn't be able to scare him at all.
Therefore, he made up his mind to get on the rankings.
After dealing with Tian Heng and the others, Zhao Gao rode on his horse and continued to advance with his army.
Ever since Tian Heng and the others entered Chu Land, they had been monitored by Xiang Liang's men.
When their assassination failed, the news quickly reached Xiang Liang.
"What did you say? The assassination attempt failed and the Tian family was wiped out?”
Xiang Liang looked at the soldiers who came to deliver the message and revealed a shocked expression.
Fan Zeng said calmly," The Tian brothers have already tried to assassinate Ying Zheng before. I didn't expect that they would dare to come again this time. The failure of the assassination was completely within my expectations."”
Xiang Liang nodded lightly." Elder Fan is right. They have already lost quite a number of people when the assassination failed previously. Now that they are going to assassinate again, the success rate is not high."”
"Uncle, shouldn't we take action now?" Xiangyu asked.”
He was already unable to take it anymore.
Fan Zeng said," There's no hurry. This is just the beginning. I believe that there are still people lying in ambush on the road to assassinate Ying Zheng."”
Looking at the soldier who was delivering the message, Fan Zeng asked," Have you seen Ying Zheng?"
"No, we only saw Zhao Gao."”
" Zhao Gao?" Fan Zeng frowned." Did you see anyone else?" For example, Ying Yun."
Fan Zeng was still a little afraid of the existence of the number one on the Wisdom Ranking.
Although he was very confident in his plan.
However, there was always a higher mountain.
"No, I only saw Zhao Gao come out to block the assassin.”
Xiang Liang said," Elder Fan, since Zhao Gao is here, then Ying Zheng must be here as well. You don't have to worry."”
" I don't know why," Fan Zeng muttered." I always suspect that Ying Zheng is not in the carriage."”
Xiang Liang saw his worried face and said,""Since Elder Fan is worried, I will send someone to investigate and confirm that Ying Zheng is in the carriage.”
"Alright."
Several days later.
Xianyang, Zhangtai Palace.
With his hands behind his back, Ying Zheng paced back and forth in the study.
At that moment, Li Si walked in.
"What do you think, Prime Minister Li?"
" Yes, Your Majesty." Li Si cupped his hands and said," Young Master Huhai has just sent news that they have been assassinated six times in a row since they entered Chu.”
"Not only are there remnants of the Six Nations, but there are also many martial artists.”
Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng's face darkened instantly.
"Hmph, I didn't expect so many people to want to assassinate me.”
" Young Master Yingyun was right," Li Si said." This is a trap."”
Li Si admired Ying Yun more and more.
"How are they now? Are they injured?”Ying Zheng asked.
Li Si said," Young Master Huhai said that Young Master Yingyun didn't do anything along the way. Whenever he encountered an assassin, he would ask the Zhao Estate's order to attack. He was almost killed.”
" Zhao Gao is an official," Ying Zheng said with a startled expression." Naturally, he would be the first to strike when he encounters an assassin. If Yun is the one to strike, then what's the point of having him?!"”
Although Zhao Gao was his trusted aide, Ying Yun was still his son.
Therefore, Ying Zheng would not side with Zhao Gao.
Of course, the main reason was that the current Ying Yun was no longer the Ying Yun from before.
The current Ying Yun was ranked first on the Intelligence Ranking, and he was more valuable than Zhao Gao.
"Your Majesty, why don't you let Young Master Yingyun and Young Master Huhai come back? This is obviously a trap designed by Fan Zeng to assassinate Your Majesty.”
Ying Zheng looked pensive.
Even though he knew it was a trap, he still didn't want to give up on finding Fan Zeng.
After all, in the entire Great Qin, only Fan Zeng had the Art of Longevity.
"Your Majesty, the soldier who sent the message said that out of the ten thousand soldiers that we brought, only a thousand are left. If this continues, I'm afraid that we will all be wiped out.”
Seeing that Ying Zheng was still hesitating, Li Si cupped his hands and said.
Ying Zheng pondered for a moment, then said,"Send the order for Ying Yun and Huhai to return to Xianyang."”
"Yes."
Chu.
At a small river.
Huhai and Ying Yun were resting in the carriage.
When he saw Ying Yun's calm face, Huhai asked,"Do you still want to continue looking? We only have a thousand people left. If we continue searching, we might not be able to survive.”
Ying Yun lowered his head to look at Huhai's body and found that the cloth on the ground had been soaked.
"You've only been assassinated six times, and you're already scared to the point of peeing your pants. You're too timid!"”
"Coward? The other party wants to assassinate me, not you. Of course, you don't have to worry. Why don't you pretend to be Imperial Father and I'll lead the army?”
Ying Yun smiled." Pretending to be Imperial Father is Imperial Father's order. If I were to pretend to be Imperial Father, I would be beheaded."”
"Don't twist logic. You just want to harm me. I'm telling you, I've already sent someone back to Xianyang to tell my father about the situation here.”
"I believe Father will let us go back soon.”
Ying Yun smiled faintly and said,"That's the best. I can't wait."”
It was impossible for Fan Zeng and the others to find it.
Because this was a conspiracy from the start.
"Who are you?"
At this moment, a voice sounded from outside the carriage.
Ying Yun lifted the curtain and saw a white-haired old man carrying a bundle of firewood passing by.
When he passed by the carriage, he cast his gaze at it.
When he met Ying Yun's gaze, he seemed to panic.
