If it was an ordinary person, this arrow would definitely hit him!
However, Ying Zheng had fought in all directions and had been assassinated many times, so he had long possessed an extremely strong reaction ability.
Just as the arrow was about to hit him, he tilted his body and the arrow brushed past his face.
Ah!
Huhai was standing right behind Ying Zheng. The arrow flew out and hit his arm.
Huhai screamed and quickly covered his arm.
"Not good, there are assassins protecting His Majesty.”
Seeing that Huhai was shot by the arrow, the officials finally reacted and quickly surrounded Ying Zheng, their faces filled with fear.
Compared to the others, Ying Zheng's expression was very calm.
He held the Emperor's Sword in his hand and looked around coldly.
Seeing that someone was trying to assassinate Ying Zheng, the surrounding people dispersed.
Very soon, only Ying Zheng and all the officials were left on the street.
"Your Majesty, it seems that the assassin has escaped in the chaos.”
Feng Quji said as he looked around.
"These assassins are too bold," said Zhao Gao."They actually dared to assassinate His Majesty in Xianyang City.”
" They shouldn't have left the city yet," Li Si said." Your Majesty, please order the city to be sealed and send someone to investigate. We'll definitely find the assassin."”
"Yes."
Ying Zheng said coldly, then turned around and left.
Ying Zheng did not seem to care about this assassination.
As for Huhai's injuries, he didn't care too much about them.
"Teacher, my arm hurts." Huhai said to Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao quickly helped him up and said,""Young Master, please bear with it. This old servant will take you to see a doctor now.”
Then, he helped Huhai leave.
Seeing this, the officials also left.
After the assassination attempt just now, everyone became frightened and couldn't wait to reach their doorstep.
After everyone left, an old man wearing a bamboo hat walked out from an alley not far away.
He looked in the direction where Ying Zheng had disappeared, sighed with disappointment, and said,""What a pity. I almost hit him.”
"I didn't succeed in the assassination this time. I don't know if there will be another chance in the future.”
With that, he turned around and disappeared.
In another alley.
Xiang Yu and a few of his subordinates stared at the soldiers who were searching.
"General, who was the one who made a move just now to alert the enemy? This is too despicable.”
"Who else could it be? It must be someone from the other five nations."”
"With their strength, it is impossible for them to kill Ying Zheng. We have to rely on ourselves.”
"Let's go. Let's find a place to hide first. We'll act when we find the right time.”
Not long after returning to the Palace of Sweet Spring, Ying Yun received the news that Ying Zheng had been assassinated.
"It seems that these people are taking advantage of the time when we prayed for rain to attack Your Majesty. Fortunately, Your Majesty is fine. Otherwise, it would be difficult for us to get away with it.”
Zhuge Liang sat on the chair and gently waved the feather fan in his hand.
Ying Yun was sitting beside him, reading a book with a calm expression.
"It's within my expectations. I just didn't expect them to be so bold as to sneak into Xianyang to kill His Majesty.”
Zhuge Liang said,"I'm worried that Huhai and Zhao Gao will make use of this incident to add fuel to the fire and speak ill of our lord."”
Ying Yun's eyes stared at the words on the book. He smiled faintly and said,"Don't worry about this military advisor. My father is not a fatuous ruler. As long as it rains in Pei County, everything will be fine.”
Zhuge Liang said,"My lord, you can rest assured that Pei County will rain."”
Two days later.
Wangyi Palace.
After Zhao Gao and Huhai came out of a secret room, Huhai asked,""How is it, Teacher? Is our army alright?”
" Not bad." Zhao Gao nodded." But I'm afraid it's still a bit too far to enter the top ten of the Army Ranking."”
Huhai said," It's a pity that Father is unwilling to hand over Meng Tian's Golden Fire Cavalry to us. If he was willing to give it to us, we would definitely be on the rankings."”
Zhao Gao said," Meng Tian is not a fool. He is the same as us. He also wants to get on the army ranking. Therefore, he will naturally not give us the Golden Fire Cavalry."”
"Then what should we do?"
Huhai didn't want to be suppressed by Ying Yun.
He also wanted to get on the army ranking list so that Ying Zheng would pay attention to him.
Zhao Gao said," The Army Rankings will be announced in three days. It's too late. Let's just wait and see!"”
"This old servant believes that there will definitely be other rankings after the Army Rankings.”
"If we can't go up this time, then we'll fight for the next time. There will always be a time when we can go up.”
Huhai sighed and said," That's the only way. Oh right, I heard that the scout who went to Pei County to investigate the situation seems to have returned. Should we enter the palace to take a look?"”
" Of course I have to go," Zhao Gao said." If I don't go, how do I know if he's really begging for rain?"”
As these words rang out, the two of them walked towards Zhangtai Palace.
……
Zhangtai Palace.
Ying Zheng was sitting in the study room expressionlessly.
In front of him, the civil and military officials stood upright.
"Have the people who were sent to check on the situation returned?”
" Yes, Your Majesty." Li Si cupped his hands." He's already in the palace."”
Not long after Li Si said that, a soldier walked into the study.
Seeing the soldiers appear, the civil and military officials immediately revealed looks of anticipation.
The soldier came up to Ying Zheng, cupped his fists and said,""Your Majesty, Pei County is currently raining heavily. When this subordinate arrived at Pei County, it had already rained for a day.”
" What? It's really raining?"
Hearing this, all the officials were shocked.
"This is unbelievable. He can even pray for rain from such a long distance. This person is really a god.”
"Yeah, it's too godly."
At this moment, Ying Zheng's eyes were also wide open.
Ying Yun had really begged for rain.
Although he was already mentally prepared.
However, when it happened, he still couldn't believe it.
"Let's go. Follow me to Ganquan Palace. I want to meet this Mister Zhuge personally and see what other heaven-defying methods he has.”
As these words rang out, Ying Zheng stood up and walked out.
Li Si, Feng Quji, and the others quickly followed.
After Huhai and Zhao Gao arrived at Zhangtai Palace, they happened to meet Ying Zheng.
"Your son greets Imperial Father."
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
Ying Zheng looked at the two of them and said," You came at the right time. Follow me to the Palace of Sweet Spring."”
Huhai was stunned when he heard this.
"Going to Ganquan Palace? Could it be that Ying Yun failed to pray for rain and Father wants to punish him?”
Zhao Gao cupped his hands and said," Your Majesty, I've already told you that Young Master Yingyun was lying to you. Praying for rain is the means of an immortal. How could he possibly pray for rain?"”
Ying Zheng stared at Zhao Gao and said coldly,""You are right. Praying for rain is indeed a method of immortals, so I want to meet this Zhuge Liang.”
After saying that, he ignored the two of them and strode out of the hall.
Huhai and Zhao Gao were dumbfounded.
Zhao Gao looked at the civil and military officials behind Ying Zheng and asked,""What's going on?"
Li Si stopped and looked at the two of them.""Looks like you guys don't know that it's raining in Pei County.”
"What?"
Zhao Gao and Huhai widened their eyes in disbelief.
Li Si did not say anything more when he saw the two of them being so shocked. He turned around and left.
After the officials left, Huhai recovered and said in surprise,""How is that possible? He actually begged for rain?”
" It seems like we've underestimated him," Zhao Gao said with a serious expression." This person is really unpredictable."”
"Teacher, what should we do now?" asked Huhai.”
"What else can we do?" Zhao Gao said.”
