That night!
The sun sets and night falls.
Under the moonlight, in the inn.
Black shadows sneaked up.
The bad guy who was sent out by Ying Ziye to investigate the situation in Yingchuan County came back to report.
"Master!"
"speak!"
The bad guy looked serious and said respectfully: "More than half of these officials in Yingchuan County are promoted by the clan."
"In addition, the county guard who was previously in charge of this place was killed by bandits!"
"Oh, really?!"
When Ying Ziye heard this, his face was surprised, his eyes were cold, he couldn't help but laughed sarcastically: "The bandits are so brave, they dare to kill the imperial official!"
"What about these bandits?"
he asked.
The bad guy looked solemn and replied: "He has been eradicated by the government!"
"hehe……"
Ying Ziye had a sneer on his face, took a deep breath, and said with emotion: "The bandits are just for money, and killing an official of the imperial court is not a small crime."
"It would be really interesting to leave all the wealthy businessmen in the city alone and kill the imperial officials instead."
"Go and find out where this dead imperial official died. Is there anyone alive?"
"As long as I know everything about him, I want to know it!"
From this information, Ying Ziye had already sensed that something was wrong. He was afraid that the officials here were already in league with the Guanzhong clan.
The previous county guard sent by the imperial court must have been killed jointly by the Guanzhong clan and local officials.
Half of the officials promoted by the Guanzhong clan have already turned to them.
I just don’t know if that’s the case for the remaining half of the officials…
"Here!"
The bad guy bowed his hands and disappeared in a flash.
The next day.
After Ying Ziye washed up, he led his bodyguards to inspect Yingchuan County.
In the county town, a group of officials followed closely.
Looking at the hundreds of officials from Yingchuan County, large and small, surrounding him, Ying Ziye couldn't help but narrow his eyes and said, "You don't have to be so kind!"
"With you here, I feel uneasy."
The county magistrate and other officials smiled awkwardly, but they understood the meaning of Ying Ziye's words.
"Since the Eighth Young Master doesn't like us accompanying him, we will retreat."
"Eighth Young Master, take your time and take a look around. If anything happens, feel free to send me."
"Eighth Young Master, take your leave."
Jun Cheng and others resigned one after another.
Ying Ziye smiled calmly and continued walking, surrounded by personal guards.
However, while walking on the street, Ying Ziye felt several eyes staring closely at him.
He glanced slightly and quickly identified several figures.
"It seems that they are worried!"
Ying Ziye smiled coldly, ordered the guards around him, and then rushed into the crowd and disappeared.
About one stick of incense!
Located outside the city of Yingchuan County, among the majestic mountains.
A large mountain was developed into a mine.
Ying Ziye's figure suddenly appeared and walked through the air.
Looking around, I saw Qin soldiers strictly guarding the mountain mines, and many civilians were working inside, naked and sweating profusely.
From time to time, he looked at the Qin soldiers around him, his eyes full of fear.
"Work quickly!"
A soldier wielded a long whip and hit a civilian husband hard on the back.
Snapped!
There was a crisp sound.
A red mark instantly appeared on Minfu's back, burning and painful.
"ah!"
The civilian husband wailed miserably, his face twisted, and he fell to the ground.
But he stood up in a hurry, not daring to delay any longer.
Qin Bing held a long whip and said with a proud smile: "Thank you for your understanding, otherwise I will give you another whip!"
"Yuan Tiangang!"
Ying Ziye looked cold and called in a low voice.
"My subordinate is here!"
In the void beside him, Yuan Tiangang appeared in a gray robe.
"Order someone to investigate the situation here at night!"
Ying Ziye ordered.
"Here!"
Yuan Tiangang accepted the order with his hands raised.
at night.
Under the dark sky.
Bad people and ghosts appeared in the mountains and mines.
The figure is erratic and does not make the slightest sound.
Qin Bing only felt a breeze blowing by. He looked around in confusion, but did not notice anything unusual.
In the darkness, a group of unscrupulous people walked through the mine, exploring the texture of the mined ore and the conditions of the mine.
The bad guys were shocked to discover that there were large amounts of gold and iron ore in the mines.
Among them, the ones with better quality have been moved to other places by separate personnel.
The defective ones were kept, and when a certain amount was saved, they were moved to the treasury.
In the middle of the night.
In the inn, the bad guy returns and reports the truth.
Hearing this, Ying Ziye's brows jumped, a ferocious force erupted, and the void around him wailed.
All the bad people felt the pressure and had difficulty breathing.
"snort!"
Ying Ziye snorted coldly, suppressing his anger.
"Sir, the situation is more than that."
The bad guy said cautiously: "The people in the mine are all local people who were oppressed by the government and forcibly enslaved!"
"hehe!"
When Ying Ziye heard this, he was extremely angry.
"What a good official of the Great Qin Empire, what a good lackey of the Guanzhong Clan, what a parent official of the people of Great Qin!"
"You actually did something so inappropriate!"
"The sky is so angry that people are so angry, even if I use all the bamboos in the southern mountains, I can't write down their crimes!"
Ying Ziye's eyes were cold, and he said in a deep voice: "The bad guys are investigating this matter with all their strength, and they are bound to find out the detailed accounts."
"Here!"
Bad people bow to orders.
The next day.
The bright sun rises in the east and the sky becomes bright.
Ying Ziye suppressed his anger all night, and now pretended to be as if nothing had happened, leading his army out of the city and heading to the next location.
In the county town, the county guard led hundreds of officials including the county magistrate to go out to see him off.
Until he saw Ying Ziye disappear from sight, a cold look flashed in the county guard's eyes, filled with murderous intent, and there was no need to hide it anymore.
"Go down with the order, arrange the manpower, and prepare to assassinate the Eighth Young Master!"
"Here!"
The county magistrate led a group of officials to pay homage respectfully.
Until the eastern patrol army left Yingchuan County thirty miles away.
"Go and call General Meng Tian!"
On the carriage of the Chinese army commander's camp, Ying Ziye ordered the guards on the side.
From time to time, Meng Tian's majestic body wearing black armor walked up quickly, bowed and said: "I have met the Eighth Young Master!"
"General Meng, please pass on His Highness's order to let the army march slowly. As for General Meng, he will stay in the camp of the Chinese Army Commander and wait for my order!"
Ying Ziye ordered in a deep voice.
Meng Tian was puzzled and said: "I wonder why Your Highness acted like this?"
Ying Ziye smiled slightly, but did not say anything clearly. He just said: "General Meng, just be more careful from now on. I think there will be guests visiting in the evening."
"Here!"
"Follow His Highness's orders!"
Meng Tian bowed respectfully.
Since Ying Ziye didn't tell him, he didn't ask any more questions and just obeyed.
Ying Ziye stepped out of the carriage, took Xiaomeng and the others away from the army, and flew through the mountains and forests back to Yingchuan.
