After an unknown amount of time.
The chaos gradually subsided.
Outside the carriage.
Zhao Gao's unique sharp voice slowly sounded.
"Your Majesty, the assassins have been found. There were a total of five people, and they were all peak Connate experts. After the assassination was successful, they vomited blood and died on the spot.”
"A warrior of sacrifice?" asked Ying Zheng lightly.”
"It looks like it," Zhao Gao answered from outside the carriage.”
"Don't make a sound. Investigate secretly. Let's go.”
"This old servant will obey!"
Outside the carriage, Zhao Gao, who was covered in blood, responded and turned to walk away.
After a while.
The chaos completely calmed down.
Her cries gradually became softer and softer, turning into silent sobs.
Only Huhai was kneeling on the ground like an ostrich, wishing he could drill a hole in the ground.
Until Zhao Gao came over and helped him up from the ground.
Looking at this disappointing thing in front of him, shivering and his pants wet, Zhao Gao didn't know whether to be angry or amused.
He was angry because Huhai was such a good-for-nothing.
He was laughing because if he inherited the throne, it would be effortless for him to control it.
"Teacher, there's an assassin! Don't worry about others, save me."
Huhai held Zhao Gao's hand tightly, unwilling to let go.
He was afraid that if he let go, he would lose his life.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. The assassins are all dead.”
Zhao Gao replied pretentiously.
"Dead?"
Huhai heaved a sigh of relief and patted his chest.""That's great. You scared me to death."
At this moment.
Inside the Dragon Cloud Carving Carriage, Ying Zheng saw everything that Huhai had done through a small gap in the window beside him.
His eyes were deep and bottomless, and his disappointment was gradually fading away.
If he had not experienced this disaster, Ying Zheng would never have thought that his son would be so afraid of death.
Before he could do anything, he was so scared that he knelt down and begged for mercy. His pants were wet.
How was he like a prince?
At the thought of this, Ying Zheng's face grew colder and colder.
Ying Changan, who was beside him, did not have such thoughts.
He frowned, his little head swaying as if he was thinking about something.
"Five people, that shouldn't be."
Ying Changan muttered softly.
The First Emperor had been assassinated three times in his life.
Jing Ke surrounded the pillar, Gao Jianli attacked the building, and Zhang Liang stabbed the Qin army.
Ying Chang 'an understood.
Jing Ke and Gao Jianli were long dead.
Only Zhang Liang was still alive.
Then this assassination must be him.
In history.
The process of Zhang Liang assassinating Qin was very simple.
He found a strong man and threw a specially made hammer into the First Emperor's carriage.
From beginning to end, there were only these two people.
However, Zhao Gao had said that there were five people, which was obviously wrong.
Ying Changan's little head spun wildly.
A moment later.
He came to two conclusions.
First, Zhao Gao was lying!
Assassinating the First Emperor was a crime that could kill all nine generations.
However, if Zhao Gao couldn't get the assassin, his crime would be no less than those assassins.
Therefore, even if he could not catch the assassin, he would definitely give an explanation.
As for who those five people were?
Whether it was Zhao Gao's hanger-on or an innocent passerby, it was unknown.
Secondly, Zhang Liang had a backup plan.
Those five people were indeed Connate Realm experts, and they were indeed assassins.
However, their existence was only to cover Zhang Liang's retreat.
In other words.
These five people were Zhang Liang's men of sacrifice.
Both possibilities were very likely.
Zhao Gao's style of doing things and Zhang Liang's schemes could have led to such an outcome.
In the end…
Ying Changan shook his hair and gave up thinking.
Forget it, what's the point of thinking so much?
It's none of my business.
"What are you thinking about?"
At this moment, Ying Zheng's deep voice came from the side.
Ying Changan raised his head and grinned, revealing two cute canine teeth.
"Father, I have something to ask of you.”
"Ha!"
Hearing this, Ying Zheng gave a cold laugh and said,""You? Nothing good will come out of your begging."
"Hehehe, how can I?"
Ying Changan smiled, took out a golden hairpin from his sleeve, and handed it to Ying Zheng, saying,""Imperial Father, I want to use this thing to spend some money on you. But let me make it clear first, it's only a temporary mortgage with you. I'll redeem it in the future.”
Ying Zheng lowered his eyes. When he saw the golden hairpin, his face suddenly turned solemn.
"This is…"
He picked up the golden hairpin and examined it carefully. He then raised his head to look at Ying Changan and asked,""Where did you get it?"
"It was given to me by a very good-looking young lady.”
Ying Changan said truthfully.
"Oh?"
Ying Zheng looked at the golden hairpin carefully, and could not help but smile.
Having seen a lot of things, he could tell the origin of the golden hairpin at a glance.
The Nine Phoenix Auspicious Cloud Hairpin was the national treasure of the Great Zhou!
It was said that this golden hairpin was made of an extremely special material.
It looked like gold, but it was thousands of times rarer than gold.
And the amazing craftsmanship had increased the value of the Nine Phoenix Auspicious Cloud Hairpin countless times.
To be able to possess such a treasure, then the Little Missy Ying Chang 'an was talking about must be Wu Meiniang.
Ying Zheng weighed the golden hairpin in his hand and smiled knowingly.
It seemed like…
The husband I found for her is very suitable for her.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Just as Ying Zheng was deep in thought, Ying Chang 'an's childish voice rang in his ears.
Ying Zheng looked back and said,"Alright, leave this with me for now." I'll get Meng Yi to give you ten taels of silver later.”
"Ten taels of silver? Imperial Father, are you sending off beggars?"
Ying Changan was unhappy on the spot and jumped up.
"What's wrong? You don't usually leave your house, and ten taels of silver isn't enough?”
Ying Zheng quietly put away the golden hairpin, raised his head, and said in a rather flat tone.
"Of course not."
Ying Changan sat down and said,""At least one thousand gold taels!"
Ying Zheng was speechless.
"What do you want so much money for? If I find out that you went out to drink wine, I will break your legs.”
Ying Zheng said in a dignified manner.
"Father, you really know how to think. I'm only five years old. Where can I go to drink?"
Ying Changan curled his lips and said in a serious manner,"Imperial Father, you saw how popular my books are.”
"I want to open a storytelling house in Xianyang City. I don't need to set up a stage in the open air. This way, I can look more professional and improve my storytelling career.”
Ying Zheng was amused.
This child had a lot of ideas.
She was not even five years old, yet she was already thinking about starting a career.
It was good.
This was what a man should do.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng nodded and said," Yes, I reluctantly agree to this reason.”
"Thank you, Imperial Father!"
Seeing that he had obtained the funds, Ying Changan immediately grinned. He was extremely happy.
As the father and son chatted and laughed.
The imperial team had also arrived outside the palace.
Many people in the city thought that the emperor had passed away, so it was chaotic everywhere.
There were even people wearing mourning clothes, kneeling on the streets and crying bitterly.
Until the moment Ying Zheng appeared from Ying Chang 'an's carriage.
All the officials and citizens were dumbfounded.
Only then did they understand.
The assassin did not succeed.
The First Emperor of Great Qin was still alive!
The moment they saw Ying Zheng, many of the ministers collapsed to the ground, crying out loud.
When would people make others realize their importance?
It was the moment of loss.
When the six-horse carriage was smashed into powder, everyone thought that Ying Zheng would die for sure.
Great Qin's sky was about to collapse.
People also realized it.
With the Great Qin Empire's strength, no matter what powerful enemy it was, it would be invincible.
The fundamental reason was that the totem in their hearts had the confidence to press forward.
And the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, was the root of Great Qin, the life of Great Qin!
He had single-handedly supported the faith of hundreds of millions of people in Great Qin!
As long as the First Emperor was here, he could suppress the world alone!
What was the one emperor of the ages?
This was the one emperor in history!
……
"What is it? Two thousand gold taels? Did His Majesty really say that?"
At the entrance of the palace's treasurer, Meng Yi looked suspiciously at the little girl standing in front of him. He felt that she was a little unreliable.
"Of course," Ying Changan said with a smile,"Do you think I can pretend to be an imperial edict? A child like me wouldn't lie.”
"Uh…"
Meng Yi revealed a confused expression.
It was as if he was saying,"I don't study much, don't lie to me."
"Meng Yi, what did you say when you knelt at my door?”
Seeing that Meng Yi did not fall for it, Ying Chang 'an put his hands on his waist and prepared to find another way.
"In this life, Meng Yi will obey Your Highness 'orders!”
Meng Yi knelt on one knee and saluted.
Ying Changan patted Meng Yi's shoulder and grinned."Isn't that enough? Hurry up and get me two thousand gold taels. Don't worry, it'll be fine.”
"This…"
Meng Yi hesitated for a moment before he gritted his teeth and nodded."Alright then!"
Soon after.
He opened the door and walked in.
A moment later.
Meng Yi carried a large sack and came to Ying Changan. He said,""Your Highness, there are two thousand taels of gold inside. I will send someone to send it to your courtyard.”
"There's no need. I can carry this by myself.”
Ying Changan waved his small hand and took a step forward. He lifted the large sack high with his left hand. It looked effortless.
Meng Yi felt numb.
Was this a kid?
"Your Highness, are you already a martial artist?”
Meng Yi asked with his mouth agape.
"Ah, I forgot about it if you didn't mention it. That's right, he had just broken through recently and was already at the peak of the Postnatal realm.”
After he finished speaking, Ying Changan turned around and left with a swagger.
Looking at Cute Little Baby's disappearing figure, Meng Yi, who was standing on the spot, was completely confused.
" Peak of Postnatal realm!?"
A cry of surprise resounded through the sky.
