Another three days passed…
Great Qin, Zhongche Mansion.
A man was sitting in the garden, drinking by himself.
His skin was pale, and he was dressed in black and red clothes. There were sharp nails on his ten fingers, like the hands of ghosts.
The aura around him was extremely cold, giving people the feeling that he was a ghost.
Opposite the man sat a young man around ten years old and a beautiful woman.
Compared to the abnormally calm man, the beautiful woman and the young man were extremely anxious.
"Zhongche Manor Order, it has been so many days since the incident, but there is still no news about that Zhao Ji and Ying Zheng. Could it be that they have been secretly brought back by Lu Buwei?”The beautiful woman asked.
These three people were none other than the Middle Carriage Manor's Magistrate Zhao Gao, Cheng Jiao, and Cheng Jiao's mother.
Zhao Gao poured himself a glass of wine and elegantly picked it up. He took a sip and said with a faint smile,"Don't worry, Madam."
"Although Prime Minister Lu is an outstanding person, as long as one is human, it is inevitable that they will make mistakes.”
"His biggest mistake was to think that the net was in his hands.”
"Little did you know that from the day the network was established, all the members were arranged by me.”
"I know better than anyone whether he has found Lady Zhao and Ying Zheng.”
"But there's been no news for so many days. It's not a good idea."”
"The king dotes on Zhao Ji, and even more on this eldest son. If they return to the country, Jiao Er's status will be…"
Zhao Gao chuckled." There's been no news for many days. It means that the escort used a disguise technique and changed his appearance."”
"They were safe a few days ago, but now, hmph hmph.”
"The experts of the five nations should have already guessed their trick. As long as they find out if the three of them have passed by, they will be able to lock onto their target very quickly.”
"As far as I know, Night of the Han Country, Armor Gate of the Wei Country, Peach Blossom Sword Immortal of the Qi Country, Ghost Shadow Sect of the Yan Country, Undying Demon Venerable, Heavenly Demon Hand of the Chu Country, Daluotian, and other experts all participated in this assassination.”
"With so many top experts around, how can the mother and son return safely?”
Hearing this, the beautiful woman was relieved and slowly heaved a sigh of relief."That's good, that's good."
"In that case, Jiao Er and I will take our leave first.”
Just as she was about to get up and leave, the beautiful woman remembered something and asked,"Then, could the escort they hired be a very powerful character?”
"What if the escort repels these experts?”
Zhao Gao shook his head and smiled bitterly. This madam was really worried about her gains and losses.
"A mere escort is just a small bug in front of so many experts.”
"He was like a moth that didn't know anything and jumped into the raging flames that could burn the seven countries.”
"The final result is only one word, death!”
Although the network's intelligence ability was strong, it was limited to the Great Zhou Dynasty and could not infiltrate the Great Ming Dynasty.
If a member went to Da Ming, the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa would identify them as spies and either expel them or kill them.
Moreover, there was no need for the Network to care about other countries.
Although the Tianmo Zither incident had caused a sensation in the Ming Dynasty, it had only been a short time, and the transmission of information in ancient times was not as fast as in modern times.
The transmission of information from different countries was even slower.
It was normal that Zhao Gao didn't know Lu Changqiu.
Hearing this, the beautiful woman left in relief.
Just as she walked out of the garden, a graceful woman wearing a cold mask and holding a strange sword appeared.
"Sir, have you decided to support Prince Chengjiao?”
"Cheng Jiao?" Zhao Gao chuckled.
"If Ying Zheng cannot come back, I will naturally support him.”
"But if Ying Zheng returns, he will be an abandoned child!”
"Startling Salamander, you should go as well and act together with Xuan Jian.”
" What?" Startling Salamander was a little confused." If Your Excellency doesn't really support Cheng Jiao, why did you want to assassinate Ying Zheng?"”
"I've seen this prince before. He's so young, but he already has astonishing wisdom. The wind of a king is definitely not as easy to control as Cheng Jiao!”
"Besides, you don't have to do it yourself.”
"You two, one in the open and one in the dark. One of you will follow them on their journey, while the other will secretly inform the assassins of the five nations.”
"Of course, if there's a suitable time and we're sure that no one has found out, we can also take action personally and frame Prime Minister Lu.”
At this point, Zhao Gao smiled proudly,"" After all, Lu Buwei is the leader of the Network now."
.......
After so many days, Lu Changqiu knew that his disguise had been seen through.
Although the killers didn't know what kind of appearance they had now, the three of them had passed through many checkpoints along the way.
As long as he asked around, he could easily lock onto the target by looking at the number of people and the direction they were heading in.
Therefore, the first half of the journey was peaceful, but the second half was fraught with danger!
Lady Zhao and her son were not in the State of Qin all year round and did not have any power.
Lu Changqiu didn't dare to go to the general of the Qin country and send an army to escort him.
Because he couldn't be sure who was on Cheng Jiao's side.
Even those generals who were loyal to Ying Zheng in history might change in this comprehensive martial arts world.
For example, the God of Killing Baiqi was different from history and had lived until now.
It could be said that in the entire Great Qin, other than King Zhuang Xiang, there was no one that Lu Changqiu could trust!
Even Lu Buwei!
Ying Zheng and his mother did not know any martial arts, and Lady Zhao's physical fitness was extremely poor, so she could not bear the pain of crossing mountains.
Lu Changqiu couldn't bring them to abandon the carriage and walk in the wilderness.
No matter how dangerous the second half of the journey was, he could only counter every move.
