"Hmm?"
After the assassination, Uncle Fu had been guarding the main door, waiting for the young master to return.
Suddenly, his ears twitched and his white brows furrowed.
The footsteps of hundreds of people could not escape his ears.
However, they were in Xianyang City, so they did not panic.
He was secretly puzzled,[The troops have already been here. Could it be that the people who came this time are His Majesty's people…?]
Zhao Gao strode forward with his head held high, followed by a hundred Qin soldiers in black armor.
These were the guards responsible for the safety of the palace. Each of them was a one-in-a-hundred elite.
For his safety, the First Emperor had specially ordered Zhao Gao to escort Qin Mu into the palace.
Zhao Gao arrived outside Qin Manor and raised his arm high.
The leading general turned around and made a few hand gestures. The hundred guards immediately lined up on both sides.
Zhao Gao got off his horse and tidied his clothes.
He took small steps up the steps and knocked on the door.
Bang bang bang ~!
Outside Qin Manor, Zhao Gao hurriedly knocked on the door.
Soon, Barkley opened the door and was not surprised to see Fatty outside.
As expected, the Emperor had sent someone to ask about the assassination attempt.
Zhao Gao did not dare to underestimate this famous swordsman who had become the Eldest Young Master's butler.
"The divine doctor was assassinated. His Majesty was furious and sent me to investigate.”
Barkley opened the door and said sickly,"Young master went to the Supreme Court."
Zhao Gao said with a smile as he crossed the threshold.
He wasn't surprised that Qin Mu had reported to the Supreme Court.
"Oh, then I'll wait for the divine doctor to come back. I'll see it with my own eyes before returning to the palace to report to His Majesty.”
"Lord Zhao, please!" Barkley stretched out his hand and instructed,"Second watch, serve good tea!"
Tea leaves had already become the standard for guests in Qin Manor.
However, according to the identity of the person who came, the grade of the tea leaves used would also be different.
Only the emperor would be willing to use the best tea leaves.
"Alright!"
Ergeng shouted and hurried to make tea.
They had both come from the palace, but they admired this senior who had reached the high position of the Zhongche Prefecture Magistrate and was the Emperor's personal attendant.
Da da ~
Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves and wheels turning could be heard.
Zhao Gao had just stepped over the threshold when he turned around to look for the source of the voice.
A smile appeared on his fat face.
"Yo, it's really better to come at the right time than to come early. The divine doctor is back!”
With Qin Mu's identity, it was just a formality for him to go to the Supreme Court.
He could come back after he cleared up the matter.
In Zhao Gao's opinion, the Supreme Court would not leave this guy there to assist them until they solved the case unless they were crazy.
He pulled back his leg that had crossed the threshold and stood on the steps with his hands hanging down to welcome him.
Seeing this, Barkley also walked out.
"Tell Qingzhu that the young master is back. Bring the porridge over immediately."”
"I'll go now!"
Ergeng responded and hurriedly ran to the kitchen to inform them to prepare supper.
He muttered in his heart,[It seems that Young Master is starving. Otherwise, why would he rush home in a hurry?]
Da da!
"Phew ~!"
The carriage was traveling at an extremely fast speed. The driver pulled the reins hard to make the galloping horse raise its hooves high and stop.
Zhao Gao's expression changed, and he hurriedly ran forward.
"Take it easy. If you bump into the divine doctor, it won't be enough even if I chop off your head!"”
Then, he walked to the side of the carriage to welcome them.
Uncle Fu followed closely behind. When he saw the anxious expression on the driver's face, his heart sank.
He hurriedly turned his head to look at the carriage. Seeing that the carriage had stopped but there was no movement, he immediately lifted the curtain.
The carriage was empty, and there was no sign of Qin Mu.
He grabbed the clothes in front of the driver's chest and shouted in a low voice,"Why did you come back alone?？”
The charioteer was so frightened that his face turned pale. He hurriedly said,"It's not good. Young master has been tortured by the Supreme Court!”
"What?!"
Zhao Gao's eyelids twitched, and he was dumbfounded.
"Impossible, how dare the chief justice…!" he murmured.”
Uncle Fu's murky eyes focused, and a murderous aura rose from his body.
He knew the young master's true identity very well.
'How dare the Supreme Court use instruments of torture? Do they want to annihilate the three clans?'!
Zhao Gao came back to his senses from his shock. His mind spun rapidly and he instantly figured out the reason.
"It must be because the divine doctor refuted the matter of enfeoffment in court, so these people bear a grudge against him!" The sharp voice said viciously.
'What a great chief justice! How dare you flatter the imperial clan with the name of a miracle doctor? You're courting death!'”
Uncle Fu gripped his walking stick tightly, his old eyes filled with killing intent.
"Lord Zhao, we have to save the young master at once. Otherwise, if we stay in the Supreme Court for too long, we might…!"”
Although he did not finish his sentence, the meaning behind it was self-evident.
The Supreme Court was responsible for judicial interrogation.
Anyone who entered, even if they did not die, would be skinned alive when they came out.
What status did Qin Mu have? He was the eldest son of the emperor!
If he was tortured in the Supreme Court, all the people at present might lose their heads!
"Damn it!"
Zhao Gao's pupils constricted as he gritted his teeth and cursed.
Thinking about how the eldest son of the Great Qin Empire was being tortured because of a battle in the Imperial Court, he couldn't help but shiver.
Cold sweat trickled down his forehead.
He hurriedly boarded the carriage and shouted anxiously,""Go to the Supreme Court, hurry, hurry!"
At once, the 100 guards turned around and rushed towards the Supreme Court.
Barkley's figure was vigorous as he stepped onto the carriage and shouted,"Hurry, go to the Supreme Court at full speed!"
"Oh, yes!"
The driver's heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly waved his whip and shouted,"Giddyup!"
The carriage sped forward and disappeared into the street in the blink of an eye.
Outside Qin Manor, a group of people looked at each other in dismay as they watched the group of people disappear in an aggressive manner.
"W-what should we do? Should we go too?”
someone asked carefully.
Ergeng frowned and said loudly,"Barkley will bring Young Master back. We have to guard the house well and close the door!”
The servants nodded in agreement.
They were only servants, and many of them were slaves.
Getting rid of the trouble seemed to have no effect.
It was better to guard the house for the young master like what the second watch said!
Second, he was secretly troubled,[How should I tell Qing Zhu about the Young Master?]
Bang!
The heavy door was tightly shut, and the huge house was filled with oppression.
Outside the Supreme Court, two guards on duty were sleepy.
They said that they were standing guard, but in fact, they were more like decorations.
As it was the Supreme Court of Great Qin, who dared to make trouble here?
Da da!
Suddenly, the sound of hurried horse hooves and orderly footsteps could be heard.
The two guards looked towards the source of the sound. A luxurious carriage was in front, followed by hundreds of elites in black armor.
Vaguely, he seemed to sense a murderous aura.
In an instant, the two of them were no longer sleepy!
He was secretly puzzled. Looking at this situation, could it be that His Majesty had come?
