"Prince Ying Mo is the destined human emperor. Naturally, I don't think that I can harm Your Highness by myself."
Just as Zhao Gao finished speaking, a gust of wind came from behind him. A group of masked men in black suddenly jumped out from behind him!
These people were tall and strong. They were dressed in tight clothes and looked very familiar. They were the palace guards who had been following behind them!
It turned out that these people were not guards at all. They had long been secretly replaced by Zhao Gao and arranged to be his people. At this moment, under Zhao Gao's signal, they finally revealed their true colors.
A powerful aura swept across his face, and a determined baleful aura suddenly appeared!
In an instant, the temperature in the entire space seemed to have dropped a little.
The eyes of these men in black were cold as they stared at Ying Mo.
The clothes on their bodies rustled, and powerful true qi seemed to be released from their bodies. Their auras were oppressive, and a wall of qi vaguely appeared in front of them.
The surrounding branches were also blown by the cold and murderous aura released by them. A few leaves fell around their bodies, but they were instantly shredded into pieces by a powerful killing intent!
They held short swords in their hands that emitted a cold light. The blades of the swords buzzed continuously, as if they were about to drink blood at any moment!
Qi Practitioners!
Moreover, judging from their steps and figures, they were obviously assassins who specialized in the path of assassination.
There were about a dozen of them, and they had already spread out and surrounded Ying Mo from all directions.
Obviously, they were all following Zhao Gao's lead.
How important was the depths of the Imperial Palace?
Every person who entered the palace had to go through a series of checks, and they had to go through the outer palace, the middle palace, and the inner palace before they could reach the place where Prince Ying Mo was.
With such strict standards, even a fly would find it difficult to fly in, let alone this group of assassins!
However, Ying Mo wasn't surprised.
Others might not be able to do it, but Zhao Gao was able to do it easily.
As the commander of the Zhongche Prefecture, Zhao Gao's responsibility was to supervise the horses in the country, including the warhorses in the palace and the guards of honor.
Therefore, Zhao Gao's men would not be interrogated.
Moreover, he had a lot of spies in the inner palace. Over the years, all his henchmen had been planted in the palace, even though he did not dare to have any improper thoughts about the First Emperor, Ying Zheng.
However, Zhao Gao was a scheming person. He had prepared for a rainy day and had long buried a path of retreat for himself. He was waiting for the Emperor Shi to abdicate in the future. He would take advantage of the chaos and elect Young Master Huhai to the throne!
He did not expect all these preparations to come in handy today.
At this moment, the group of Qi Practitioners were staring at Ying Mo. It was obvious that as long as Zhao Gao gave the order, they would kill him without hesitation!
Clearly, they were all men of sacrifice.
To be able to treat a group of powerful Qi Practitioners as death warriors, one could only imagine the power behind Zhao Gao.
At this moment, Zhao Gao laughed maniacally,"
"Hehe, this lowly subject is indeed not qualified, but what if we add them?”
Huhai laughed excitedly. Although his face was still swollen and bleeding, he could not hide his pride.
He had always been confident in his teacher, Zhao Gao. As his student, Huhai had seen the power behind Zhao Gao.
To him, that was definitely enough to suppress Ying Mo.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Huhai had been full of hostility towards Ying Mo. In his opinion, he had Zhao Gao laoshi's background and strength, and it was only a matter of time before he ascended the throne!
This Ying Mo had suddenly appeared out of nowhere and wanted to snatch away the position that belonged to him. It was simply a fool's dream.
Previously, he had wanted to give Ying Mo a chance because Ying Mo was his blood brother. As long as Ying Mo took the initiative to retreat, Huhai might as well spare his life. Otherwise, he would not be able to explain himself to his father after he came out of seclusion.
However, Ying Mo's slap had clearly ignited the last bit of anger in Huhai's heart!
Now, not only did he want the position of Crown Prince, he also wanted the lands of the Great Qin Empire. He also wanted Ying Mo, who had dared to covet his throne, to die!
His eyes were burning with rage as he looked at Ying Mo with hatred.
Hehe, this bastard must be very afraid now, right?
Huhai could already imagine Ying Mo begging for mercy in front of him.
However, at this moment, Ying Mo's reaction had indeed stunned him!
Ying Mo was the same as before, standing tall and proud, looking at the dozen Qi Practitioners with a calm expression.
At this moment, his aura was stable, and his eyes were firm. There was no fear in them.
In fact, at this moment, Huhai seemed to see his father, who had great talent and courage!
Only he was able to remain calm when a sharp sword was hanging over his head. That was the true aura of a king.
Of course, there was another possibility.
Even a person like his father would never allow himself to truly fall into a situation where a sword hung over his head. Could it be that Ying Mo was the same?
This was impossible!
Huhai was unwilling.
How could Ying Mo not be afraid?
When he first saw the power behind Zhao Gao laoshi, he was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
Even now, he was still very cautious when interacting with Zhao Gao. After all, the power behind Zhao Gao was too powerful.
Therefore, Ying Mo must be faking it. He must be pretending to be calm!
Huhai became even angrier.
He just couldn't stand Ying Mo's pretentious appearance!
Do you really think you are my father?
Acting tough and getting struck by lightning!
I'll let you pretend. Anyway, no matter what, you won't be able to escape from this inescapable net today.
The outcome would not change!
Huhai and Zhao Gao had already made thorough arrangements. There would not be any guards here today. Everyone had been arranged by them in advance.
Zhao Gao acted in advance and sent away all the officials in charge of the guards in the inner palace. After all, the ancestors of all parties were gathered today, and the outer palace was the one that needed the most manpower.
Even Sima Cuo, the chief justice of the Supreme Court, was arranged outside.
At least for the next half a day, this inner palace was Zhao Gao's spy. In his eyes, Ying Mo would have no chance of escaping.
Zhao Gaoliang laughed.
"Your Highness Ying Mo, don't think that you can buy yourself a chance to survive by stalling for time. Do you really think that I only brought these experts here? If you don't believe me, just shout and see if there are any of your trusted aides or guards within ten thousand feet.”
"However, please rest assured, Your Highness. For the sake of the First Emperor, I will definitely order my subordinates to give Your Highness a quick death. It is an honor for Your Highness to die in the hands of so many experts."
However, Ying Mo remained calm and collected as he said indifferently,
"Not enough."
Hearing such provocative words, an assassin immediately drew his sword and attacked!
"How dare you be rude to Lord Zhao Gao!”
