"No, that Fan Zeng has been helping out at the Charity Hall since he returned to Xianyang. There has been no change and no one has contacted him..."
When the First Emperor heard this, he couldn't help but nodded slightly.
Fan Zeng and Qu Gai had an old relationship and had frequent contacts. They had many public gatherings together for drinks. Naturally, such things could not be hidden from the eyes and ears of the First Emperor.
But Qu Gai was good at dancing and had been with him for a long time in Xianyang. Fan Zeng was not the only one who had contact with him?
There is no rich and powerful family among them.
Even if the First Emperor was domineering, there was no reason to catch everyone indiscriminately.
What's more, Fan Zeng was not in Xianyang when Qu Gai launched his attack.
However, this did not affect the First Emperor's suspicion of Fan Zeng, so he had been paying attention to Fan Zeng's movements during this period of time.
At this time, hearing that there was no unusual movement on Fan Zeng's side, the First Emperor dropped the topic and turned the question to the unusual movement in Jiangnan.
"...Someone in Changsha County found a silk letter from the belly of a fish, falsely claiming that the ancestor dragon will die next year. In Lushan County, there was a swamp. The water dried up overnight, and a one-eyed stone man came out. He wrote a letter saying that the stone man had one eye, stirring up trouble and rebellion in the world. There is an observation. Qi people say that there is a king's Qi in Zhang County, and it looks like five colors. There is a cliff in Hanzhong County, and a prophecy appears. Although there are three Chu households, Qin will be destroyed by Chu. There are signs of prostitution in various places, and there are bandits in Daze Township. After hearing the news, Since then, they have frequently attacked Jiujiang and Surabaya..."
Listening to Hei's report, the First Emperor's face was as dark as water and he said nothing.
"Weichen believes that these situations are so concentrated that they are most likely the work of those traitors..."
The First Emperor was silent for a long time.
"How long have I been traveling around the world, and all these monsters and monsters have popped up? Let's see what these so-called prophecies can do to me!"
The First Emperor held his sword in his hand and looked at the night sky in the distance.
"If there is a king's spirit, I will break it. If there is a vision, I will destroy it. If there is a traitor, I will kill it! As the first emperor, I am the righteousness of heaven and earth. Even if there are any monsters, ghosts, and snakes in the world, I should avoid them."
At this point, the First Emperor suddenly turned around.
"I want to patrol the world again and suppress all abnormal movements in the world!"
Black bowed silently.
In the night sky, the voice of the First Emperor was filled with a bit of bone-chilling coldness.
"I can't leave a world full of crises to my eldest grandson..."
…
Zhao Ying didn't know that at this moment, the situation he had been paying attention to and worried about for a long time had finally reappeared, and the First Emperor had already thought about going on patrol again.
After sending Zhang Liang away, he took a rare day off and slept soundly all night. ,
The next morning, I felt refreshed.
Today, Xiu Mu, his eldest mother was newly crowned queen, so he was not in a hurry to go to the palace to disturb his eldest father and mother's sweet dream.
Instead, he finished washing up and prepared to have breakfast with his family.
This surprised Mi Ji, Wang Nan and others who had not been able to eat with Zhao Ying for a long time. They sat around happily and just picked up their chopsticks and took two bites.
The First Emperor's will has arrived.
Seeing Hei coming in person in a hurry, Zhao Ying couldn't help but push the desk aside in surprise and strode out to greet him.
"Hei Lao, why are you here today? Is there something wrong?"
Black bowed respectfully.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty has invited you to come over as soon as possible——"
When Zhao Ying heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, and immediately nodded without hesitation.
"good!"
At this time, the First Emperor specially asked someone to call him, maybe there was something urgent. He casually pulled the handkerchief he had prepared earlier from the hand of the maid on the side, simply wiped the oil stains on his mouth, and looked back at Mi Ji, Wang Nan and others.
"Auntie, you guys are eating, don't wait for me, I'll go to the eldest father's place first to have a look..."
The First Emperor summoned them. Although Mi Ji and Wang Nan were reluctant to leave, they did not dare to say more.
Walking out of the yard and looking at the carriage waiting outside, Zhao Ying's face couldn't help but become more serious. He had entered the palace so many times, when did he need a carriage to pick him up?
"I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to the Charity Hall today. Let Zhang Fucheng go there on my behalf..."
Zhao Ying paused for a moment, turned around and gave instructions to the steward on the side, and then got on the carriage.
Today was originally the day for him to meet and express condolences to everyone at the Charity Hall. It was also an important node for him to promote the transformation of the Charity Hall from a simple material subsidy to a combination of relief and assistance.
But something happened suddenly, so he had to temporarily adjust his schedule and ask Zhang Liang to help him deal with this problem. Fortunately, the details of these problems had been discussed with Zhang Liang in advance, so it didn't hurt to leave them to Zhang Liang.
At this time, all his thoughts were focused on the sudden summons by the First Emperor.
Because, according to the original development of history, tomorrow, the third day of October, which is the thirty-seventh year of the First Emperor, and the third day of the New Year, the First Emperor will set off for the last tour of his life, and then die on the way.
Zhao Gao, together with Li Si, supported Hu Hai to ascend to power, forced the eldest son Fu Su to be killed, and the general Meng Tian to cleanse the bloodline of the First Emperor and start the self-destruction process of the Qin Dynasty.
He, Zhao Ying, was also on the list of people to be destroyed.
This made him unable to ignore it.
…
Looking at the carriage gradually going away, Xiao Yaosheng could not help but retract his raised arm in embarrassment and scratched his head.
The little junior sister with a long sword on her back and a cute expression on her face suddenly flashed her eyes as clear as autumn water and looked at Xiaoyaosheng beside her with some doubts.
"Senior brother, didn't you say that you are very respectable in front of the emperor's eldest grandson? The emperor's eldest grandson didn't pay attention to you just now..."
Xiaoyaosheng:......
"Ahem, ahem, that's called ignoring me? That's called having a clear understanding!"
Xiaoyaosheng almost became angry from shame.
He snorted, put his hands behind his back, turned around and left.
"It's too shameless for a big man like the emperor's eldest grandson to come forward to deal with such a trivial matter like yours in person? Let's go, let's go, let's go. Since His Highness has something to do, we will go to see Zhang Fu Cheng when he arrives later... "
As a result, I took my junior sister and waited in the yard all morning, but Zhang Fucheng didn't come.
Looking at his junior sister who was looking more and more suspicious, Xiaoyaosheng suddenly regretted bragging in front of his junior sister. What kind of bragging was that?
I wish I could disappear where I was.
Zhao Ying naturally didn't care about Xiaoyaosheng's insignificant feelings. He sat in the car and pondered in silence. Hei, who was driving the car himself, also said nothing.
The carriage entered the palace gate unimpeded.
It wasn't until the carriage stopped steadily in front of the main hall and Zhao Ying jumped off the carriage and walked up the stairs with Hei that Hei said softly.
"Your Majesty wants to tour the world again and shock the various places..."
really!
Zhao Ying's heart was greatly shaken, but because he was already on guard, he didn't lose his composure too much. He nodded slightly.
