Xianyang.
"My lord! The operation failed, and no one survived.”
In the mansion, an assassin reported the situation to Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao sat in the pavilion, his eyes deep and serene. Although he was shocked, he still showed a calm expression of 'everything is under control'.
"So, have you found out the secret behind the Ninth Young Master?" he asked after a moment of silence.”
"No!"
"Illusory Sword Cang Ke lured Zhang Han away and sent Cold Face to probe, but he died very quickly. It's very strange."”
Zhao Gao's eyes darkened as he muttered to himself,""Illusory Sword Cang Ke and Cold Face are both super first-class. To be able to kill them easily, their strength cannot be ignored. So many people have died, but we still don't know what that young master is hiding. It seems that your ability to do things has decreased a lot.”
The Six Sword Slaves stood at the side and were also very curious.
Being powerful wasn't that scary. What was scary was being mysterious!
Hearing Zhao Gao's reproach, the assassin's body trembled. In fact, he understood that it was not that the network assassin's ability to do things had decreased, but that the young master was too mysterious and terrifying.
Illusory Sword Cang Ke and Cold Face were both first-rate swordsmen, but their deaths were unknown. This in itself was a shocking problem.
However, he didn't dare to say anything and asked carefully,""Milord, should we continue probing?”
"No need!"
Zhao Gao rejected the idea. Since they had already attracted attention, if they attacked again, they would definitely attract the attention of the Shadow Secret Guards and might anger the person above.
However, one Fu Su was hard enough to deal with. Now, there was another Ninth Young Master of the Empire.
This was related to the position of the eighteenth prince and his plan. He could not neglect it.
After thinking for a while, Zhao Gao said,"Let the Startling Salamander get close to him and find out the secret behind him first. Then, wait for orders."”
"Yes."
The killer retreated. He understood the meaning of " approaching ".
……
They left Xun County.
Ying Ziqin didn't return to Xianyang. Instead, he continued south.
Li Si was currently dealing with the Mohist City of Traps.
He couldn't miss out on this contribution. He might be able to obtain a lot of contribution points.
In addition, there was another big problem in the south, which was the Bai Yue.
"Ding! Master has eliminated the bandits in three counties and intimidated the arrogance of the bandits in the military counties. He has gained the hearts of the people in three counties and protected the people of three counties for the empire. He has received the emperor's praise and is rewarded with 30 merit points.”
On the way, the system suddenly gave him a notification.
This surprised Ying Ziqin a little.
Clearing the raiders was an achievement.
Protecting the people's livelihood was also an achievement.
In comparison, the latter received more contribution points.
This gave him some ideas.
One achievement point could be exchanged for a bag of potatoes, about 300 of them!
Adding on his previous achievement points, he now had 45 achievement points, enough to exchange for 45 bags.
If he exchanged for it and planted it, the effect would be extremely high.
After all, this kind of crop was easy to grow, and it was one of the main reasons for Great Qin's livelihood.
Moreover, solving the problem of the people's livelihood was also a merit, and he could also obtain merit points.
However, now was the time to build an attribute army. Everything had to be put aside for the time being!
This was because the problems of the people in the Qin Empire couldn't be changed overnight. However, the root causes of the unrest were affecting the Qin Empire at all times. This was something that needed to be resolved urgently.
A day later.
Everyone arrived at Lingyue County, South County.
"I am Tian Yao from Lingyue County. Greetings, Young Master!”
Just as they arrived at the city gate, a man in official robes led many guards and waited quietly in front of the city gate.
"How did Lord Tian know that Young Master would be here?“
Zhang Han was vigilant.
"General!" Tian Yao replied respectfully. The Prefectural Governor has already sent people to inform the counties of South County that Young Master has eliminated the raiders and stabilized the people's livelihood. He has asked all the counties to cooperate with Young Master. That's why I received Young Master's arrival.”
In the carriage, Ying Ziqin shouted,"Lead the way!"”
"Yes, sir!"
Tian Yao bowed and led the way straight to the county office.
He also arranged a villa for Ying Ziqin.
"Young Master, please have some tea!"
In the garden, a woman walked forward with a cup of tea.
Ying Ziqin sized up this woman.
Her figure was slender and well-proportioned.
It was a very standard and exquisite melon seed face.
Her temperament was unique, and she had the coldness and elegance of an orchid in a deep valley.
An extremely attractive gaze!
To describe it in one word, it was…extremely beautiful!
"This is…?"
Ying Ziqin looked at Tian Yao.
"Young Master! This is my daughter, Tian Yan 'er!"
Seeing Ying Ziqin staring at his daughter, Tian Yao urged,"Yan 'er, hurry up and serve tea to Young Master.”
"Tian Yan 'er!"
Ying Ziqin smiled.
If Tian Yan 'er didn't have one, then only Tian Yan.
As someone who was about to become a martial grandmaster, he was very sensitive to auras. This Tian Yan 'er's breathing was even and her aura was restrained. She was not simple.
Looking at Tian Yao's appearance, he was afraid that he would not be able to give birth to such a beautiful daughter!
Most importantly, the shadow was no stranger to the word 'Tian Yan'.
The net was a first-class assassin, one of the eight swords of Yue Ba, the Startling Salamander!
Isn't it Tian Yan?
To be able to attract his attention, it was enough to show how beautiful and outstanding this woman was.
However, since Tian Yan 'er was a network killer, she was not a spy.
Then this Tian Yao was almost the same.
It seemed that the net was indeed terrifying, and even Great Qin's officials could easily infiltrate it.
This made Ying Ziqin very wary.
The Network Legacy had existed for a very long time, and they had not truly pledged allegiance to Great Qin, but had only done so because of their authority.
Just like the Yin-Yang School.
It could only be said that to a certain extent, their interests were the same as the Qin Empire's. They were just using each other.
They were like worms that relied on Great Qin's power to achieve their goals, while the empire used them to eliminate the rebels.
If the Qin Empire lost their benefits, they would definitely abandon the Qin Empire and become the most terrifying enemy to crush the empire!
This was something that Ying Ziqin didn't want to see.
Ying Ziqin's personality was also very overbearing.
In fact, he was even more domineering than his father, Ying Zheng.
What he wanted was an empire!
The power of the empire and the laws of the empire were above everything else.
There was no use, no alliance formed by interests.
The Empire was the only one!
There was no such thing as using someone of the same level.
Bodies like the Network and the Yin-Yang School could only lie or kneel at the feet of the Empire. They could not even look at the Empire at eye level.
Only then could the peace and stability be maintained!
Only then would it be stable!
Only then could he realize his more magnificent plan!
Of course.
Ying Ziqin didn't plan to kill them all.
After all, his grand plan would indeed be affected if these people were missing.
"Perhaps we can fight for this woman!”
Ying Ziqin stared at Tian Yan and didn't ask why she was arranged to get close to him. Was it an assassination or something else?
He was not afraid of assassination, poisoning, and so on.
Other than his own strength, he also had the mysterious Undying Phoenix Blood to protect his body. Unless he cut off his head, it would be difficult to kill him completely.
In addition, he knew that this woman had a secret, and that was her mother, the previous generation's Startling Salamander!
She had entered the trap not just to become an assassin!
He was not on Zhao Gao's side.
This was the foundation that Ying Ziqin planned to use to win her over.
Tian Yan was a heaven-grade first-class assassin, close to the strength of a grandmaster. If she added the shadow attribute to her assassination technique, she could threaten 99% of the experts in the world.
However, this woman was a dangerous person and he had to be wary of her.
"Your daughter is very special."
Ying Ziqin said with a smile.
"If Young Master likes it, let me stay and serve Young Master.”
Tian Yao was overjoyed.
He looked as if he had climbed onto the branch of a phoenix and could follow the ninth young master of the empire. Even if he became a concubine, his status would rise.
If it were anyone else, they would have been fooled by her acting skills.
"Are you willing?"
Ying Ziqin gave Tian Yan a meaningful look.
His words seemed to be asking Tian Yao and Tian Yan 'er!
"It's my daughter's blessing to serve Young Master. How can I not be willing?" Tian Yao said excitedly.“
Ying Ziqin only looked at Tian Yan 'er!
Since she treated him as a greedy and lecherous young master of the empire, it was refreshing to approach him with beauty.
"Young Master, if you don't mind, I'm willing to serve you." Tian Yan 'er said respectfully.”
"Alright then!"
"Wait for me in the room," Ying Ziqin said casually.”
Tian Yan 'er was speechless.
