The First Emperor's eastward tour was an unprecedented event.
Not only the princes and princesses came out to see him off, but even some nobles went out to watch.
At this time, the four gates of Xianyang City were wide open, and the Imperial Guards were checking the convoys and carriages one by one, and then letting some of the carriages out of the city, lest the First Emperor would not be able to leave the city on time when the time came.
At this moment, Zhao Hao was sitting on the carriage, looking at Gong Ziliang and the girl Ruyi beside him with a strange expression: "Are you sure you are going to Yongcheng and not eloping?"
"Brother Hao is joking. How could I, the son of the First Emperor, do such a thing?"
Gong Ziliang glanced at the girl Ruyi in his arms and said haha.
Zhao Hao frowned slightly, looked deeply at Gong Ziliang, and then looked at the motorcade behind him.
I saw boxes of various sizes, furniture, and various guqins on it.
A dazzling array of items, everything you need.
"Then where are you going to move these things?"
Zhao Hao couldn't help but ask.
Gong Ziliang looked at Miss Ruyi again and explained with a smile: "These things are not mine, but belong to Miss Ruyi. She is no longer performing in Chunmian Tower and wants to go home to take care of her sister."
"Well……"
When Zhao Hao heard Gong Ziliang's explanation, the corner of his mouth twitched, not knowing what to say.
How could a girl who had been performing in the Qin Lou Chu Pavilion all year round and was the top star leave so easily?
I beat Young Master Liang to death a hundred times, but he still wouldn't believe it.
It is very likely that he, the careless ninth brother, redeemed the girl's life, but was afraid of being discovered by the First Emperor's father, so he simply sent her out of Xianyang City to prepare for a long-distance relationship.
This is so interesting!
No wonder he suddenly said he was going to Yongcheng. It turned out to be to see his little lover!
No, why are you taking us as a gift to your little lover? Be a bodyguard? !
Zhao Hao was speechless. He turned to look at Gongzi Gao and found that he smiled slightly at him. This guy also knew the truth, but he didn't.
Damn it, are they all working together to trick my little brother?
Or people?
Seeing Zhao Hao's face slump, looking very unhappy, Gong Ziliang looked at each other and the three brothers, and then comforted him with a smile: "Brother Hao, I didn't mean to hide it from you, I was really afraid that you would refuse..."
"If you hide it from me, I won't refuse?"
Zhao Hao frowned and immediately stood up from the carriage, preparing to get off.
Seeing this, Gong Ziliang quickly stopped him and lowered his voice: "Although I lied to you about this matter, the things about your mother and concubine's clan are absolutely true. If you don't believe me, you can find out just by going to Yongcheng!"
"snort!"
Zhao Hao snorted noncommittally.
The four brothers looked at each other, looking at each other.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise in the crowd. Everyone looked for the sound and found that a group of cavalry was running towards the city gate.
"May I ask if Young Master Hao is here?"
The leading cavalryman shouted loudly.
Zhao Hao was slightly startled, turned to look at the four young masters, and found that their faces were full of doubts. He frowned, stood up and responded loudly: "This young master is here!"
"Stomp stomp stomp..."
There was a sound of horse hoofbeats, and the cavalry team quickly came to the carriage where Zhao Hao was sitting, and raised their hands to Zhao Hao: "Master Qi, your Majesty has summoned you to see you, please come with us quickly!"
"Father summoned me? Do you know what happened?"
Zhao Hao asked in a deep voice.
"Young master, I don't know what will happen next. Please come and see your majesty with us as soon as possible!"
After hearing the words of the leading cavalry, Zhao Hao turned to look at Gong Ziliang and said with some embarrassment:
"Brother Ninth, you see, my father is summoning me. I can't go even if I don't go. Why don't you go first?"
"Ah? This..."
Young Master Liang looked hesitant, not knowing how to respond. The young Master beside him patted him on the shoulder and said, "Since my father is destined, let Brother Hao go. We can accompany you!"
"That's right, with us here, what are you afraid of? Do they dare not let you go?"
Young Master Ronglu agreed with confidence.
Gongzi Jianglu and Gongzi Liang looked at each other. The former nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with what Gongzi and Gao said.
But Gong Ziliang was still a little worried, and said to Zhao Hao: "Brother Hao, to tell you the truth, Brother Wei took people out of the city privately, and he was afraid that General Yang would stop him, so he asked you to go out with Brother Wei;
Look, can you say hello to General Yang and let me go out of the city? "
"Oh, I see!"
Zhao Hao nodded suddenly, and then smiled freely: "Brother Ninth, don't worry, I will say hello to General Yang!"
After saying that, he stepped out of the carriage and climbed onto a pony.
"Thank you so much, Brother Hao!"
"If you don't speak the same language as one family, let's go!"
Zhao Hao waved his hand, mounted the pony and rushed towards Ying Zheng without looking back.
………
At the same time, somewhere on a high building in Xianyang City.
Ying Chengyu put his hands behind his back and looked at the motorcade below quietly without saying a word.
At this time, Fan Zeng walked up to him and said calmly:
"Those people have already made arrangements. As long as Yu'er leaves the city smoothly, they will follow!"
"Ah!"
Ying Chengyu snorted when he heard this and turned to look at Fan Zeng: "Mr. Fan is really willing to bet on the future of the Xiang family!"
"Yu'er has left a bad impression in their hearts. Taking the lead this time is also a helpless move. I hope that we can work together to destroy the violent Qin in the future."
"Do you really think you have a chance to overthrow Tyrant Qin?"
"Even if there is little hope, there is no chance. As long as Ying Zheng dies, Qin will be in chaos!"
Fan Zeng said with determination.
Ying Chengyu smiled and shook his head, and said thoughtfully: "Mr. Fan's words make some sense, but I think they are not entirely correct."
Fan Zeng's eyes narrowed, knowing that this 'resurrected from the dead' Chang'an Lord was not simple.
However, he did not refute Ying Chengyu, but asked expressionlessly: "I would like to hear the details, and please give me some advice from Lord Chang'an."
All talented people are arrogant.
Although Fan Zeng is slightly older, he is not at all arrogant. If not, he would not be incompatible with Zhang Liangshi.
Therefore, Fan Zeng naturally had some edge in his reply to Ying Chengyu.
Ying Chengyu smiled as if he didn't care, waved his hand and said: "I don't take it as advice, it's just that I have a different opinion. Mr. Fan, just listen to it. If you think it's unreasonable, just treat it as a joke."
After saying that, he took two steps forward, raised his hand to hold the window frame, looked at the motorcade downstairs, and continued;
"Mr. Fan said just now that if Ying Zheng dies, the Qin State will be in chaos. Then I would like to ask Mr. Fan, after Ying Zheng dies, will the Qin State fall?"
"If Qin continues to develop as it is now, will the heads of the six countries of Guizhou really join you in opposing Qin?"
"You must know that the recent changes of the Great Qin Dynasty not only launched wars externally and implemented overseas enfeoffments, but also abolished the alliance internally, lightened the levies, reduced taxes, and won the hearts of a large number of people. The heads of the six countries of Guizhou were grateful to the Great Qin, and there was no trace of resentment at all;
In the future, the heads of the six countries in Guizhou will live and work in peace and contentment, let alone rebel against Qin! "
"Then according to the words of Lord Chang'an, there is no hope for us to rebel against Qin?" Fan Zeng asked with a sneer.
Ying Chengyu turned to look at him and said with a half-smile:
"Who said it's hopeless? Does Mr. Fan know King Zhao Wuling?"
"Um?"
Fan Zeng was stunned for a moment, and then his face was full of surprise as if he remembered something.
At that time, King Zhao Wuling was also a heroic figure. However, due to a rebellion by his descendants, he was eventually trapped in a sand dune and ended up in the tragic situation of starving to death.
Now that Yingzheng has not established a prince, Fusu is supervising the army in Jiuyuan. Once the princes are determined to compete for that position, the demons will surely dance wildly.
By then, there might be another opportunity.
"Hahaha, what Chang'an Jun said makes me feel confident. If such a thing really happens, we should have foreign aid, right?"
Fan Zeng stroked his beard, raised his head and smiled.
Ying Chengyu glanced at him and smiled meaningfully.
At this moment, a middle-aged man who looked like a servant hurriedly walked towards the two of them, raised his hands to Ying Chengyu and said:
"Master, Zhang Cang betrayed you, and Lu Sheng was discovered!"
"Um?"
Ying Chengyu's expression changed and he looked at Fan Zeng suddenly.
Fan Zeng was also slightly startled and hurried to the window.
A large number of forbidden troops were seen gathering towards the west of the city, and the scene was chaotic.
the other side.
Zhao Hao came to Ying Zheng's carriage and saluted Ying Zheng: "My son, Chen Hao, pay homage to my father!"
"No courtesy, come in and talk!"
Ying Zheng's calm voice came from the carriage. Zhao Hao frowned slightly and looked at Zhao Gao who was driving the carriage. He found that his expression was kind and nothing unusual, and he couldn't help but feel doubtful.
But after only a moment of confusion, he obediently climbed onto the carriage and walked into the car.
Ying Zheng was seen wearing a black dragon robe, sitting in the carriage, looking at Zhao Hao with a smile:
"Don't you want to stay in Xianyang? Why did I hear that you were leaving the city?"
"Well"
Zhao Hao scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "It's not that Erchen wants to go out of the city, it's Ninth Brother and the others who asked Erchen to go out of the city together, saying that my father wanted to stay in Yongcheng for one day. It just so happened that Erchen had not been to Yongcheng, so he wanted to go. have a look."
"Oh? That's it?"
"Otherwise? Father, don't you think I want to tour east with you?"
"hehe."
Ying Zheng smiled noncommittally, then patted the bench next to him and said kindly:
"Come, come and sit next to your father, let us father and son have a good chat!"
"Didn't we talk about it before? Father, do you have anything else to explain?"
Zhao Hao looked confused, but still walked to Ying Zheng's side obediently and sat down honestly.
Ying Zheng looked at him with a smile and said:
"Father, this tour to the east lasts for at least two to three months, and at most for half a year. I won't be able to see you for a while, but I miss you a lot."
"Huh"
Zhao Hao let out a light sigh, subconsciously rubbed his arms, moved his buttocks, farther away from Ying Zheng, and complained:
"Father, what's going on? Why are you so numb all of a sudden? It's so scary."
"Ah!"
Ying Zheng snorted and said angrily: "You brat, do you know what fatherly love is!?"
"don't know!"
Zhao Hao shook his head: "I'm still young, let's wait until I become a father."
"Oh? Do you want to be a father? I'll give it to you."
"Stop it! I heard about that and I don't agree with it!"
Ying Zheng asked a little funny:
"Why don't you agree? Do you look down on that girl from the Yang family? I see that you and Yang Duanhe are very close, and he can help you."
When Zhao Hao heard this, he couldn't help but raise his hand to his forehead:
"Father, I said, I don't have that position. I just want to do something meaningful. Besides, my father is in his prime, why do you worry about this?"
"Haha, you brat, when did you become so enlightened? I don't even know."
Ying Zheng smiled and pointed at Zhao Hao.
Zhao Hao rolled his eyes, tilted his head and said, "My father came to me, maybe this is not what he wanted to say."
"Um."
Ying Zheng nodded with a smile, then suppressed his smile, looked directly at Zhao Hao and said: "Xu Fu just told me that there is something wrong with your face. You don't look like a living person, but you are the incarnation of a demon."
"ah?"
Zhao Hao was startled and couldn't help but stare at Ying Zheng in stunned silence.
He never imagined that someone in the world could really see through him.
Technically speaking, he is dead.
Because before he traveled to this body, the original owner of this body was already dead.
He just took over someone else's body.
It's just that this kind of mysterious and magical physiognomy can really see through a person?
Zhao Hao was panicking in his heart, but on the outside he pretended to be calm and asked Ying Zheng: "Does your father believe him?"
"Do not believe!"
Ying Zheng readily gave his answer.
"?"
A black question mark slowly appeared on Zhao Hao's forehead, and he stared directly at Ying Zheng. After a while, he didn't notice Ying Zheng's eyes dodge at all. He couldn't help but ask: "Does the father trust his son?"
Ying Zheng smiled dumbly, stood up slowly, walked back and forth in the carriage for a moment, turned to look at Zhao Hao, and said sincerely:
"You and I, father and son, have no say in whether we believe it or not. Even if you are a demon, you are still my son."
"Perhaps, you think I am unwise and think that Xu Fu and others are lying to me."
"But have you ever thought that I actually don't have time to explore the secret of immortality, so I can only rely on them."
"What I ask for is nothing more than the truth. Can people really live forever?"
Hearing this, Zhao Hao was moved and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly: "Father is very persistent in immortality."
Ying Zheng sighed and said calmly and helplessly:
"Whether it's scientific immortality or elixir of immortality, I want an answer. I have too many things I want to do. Unfortunately, I am only a mortal, and mortals' abilities are limited!"
After saying that, he looked at Zhao Hao with burning eyes: "Even if I dominate the world and conquer nine continents, I am still a mortal, and I am very unwilling to do so. Do you understand?"
"Go back to your father, I understand."
Zhao Hao replied helplessly.
"That"
Just as Ying Zheng was about to question Zhao Hao, there was a sudden noise outside the carriage.
"Zhao Gao, what happened!?"
Ying Zheng shouted angrily, looking extremely displeased.
"Back to Your Majesty, I'll go and see what's going on!"
With that said, Zhao Gao jumped off the carriage and hurried towards the city gate.
The officials behind the car, as well as the prince and princess, all looked curiously into the distance.
The noise became louder and louder, and it sounded like it was coming from all directions.
Zhao Gao walked quickly to the west gate of Xianyang and looked along the gap blocked by the imperial army.
I saw a carriage stuck in the middle of the city gate, with many corpses surrounding it, and several swordsmen in black fighting to the death with the imperial army.
"What happened? What happened to these people?"
Zhao Gao asked, looking at the imperial guards who looked like officers.
This Imperial Guard knew Zhao Gao, so naturally he did not dare to neglect him. He hurriedly saluted and said: "Zhao Palace Order, we are ordered to inspect the East Patrol carriage. There is an assassin hiding in the carriage. We have discovered it and we are arresting the assassin!"
The reason why he was in a hurry was because Zhao Gao was serving Ying Zheng. Now that Zhao Gao came to ask, he obviously disturbed the Holy Master.
Although it is their job to kill assassins and protect the emperor's safety, today is the big day for Ying Zheng's eastward inspection tour.
If Ying Zheng is angered because seeing blood is unlucky, both these assassins and they will be in bad luck.
"Then why is there so much noise all around? Are there many assassins?"
Zhao Gao frowned and asked.
At this time, another captain of the Forbidden Army who had made a clear investigation quickly came to Zhao Gao and saluted him:
"Back to Zhao Mansion, I have just investigated clearly. Someone has spread rumors that an immortal will come today. The leaders of Guizhou came out to pay homage to the immortal. It has nothing to do with those assassins."
"Um?"
Zhao Gao was slightly startled, wondering who spread the rumor?
Isn't this what Xu Fu told your Majesty?
Does anyone else know about this?
Zhao Gao frowned and thought, there were more and more Guizhou people around, almost completely surrounding the street.
Without any time to hesitate, he hurriedly ran in the direction of Ying Zheng's carriage.
At this moment, a burst of screams suddenly broke out from the crowd.
"Everyone, look! There's a miracle coming from the sky! There's a miracle coming from the sky!"
