Just as Wu Cheng drove to Qiankou Village, Ying Zheng in Qinhuang Palace was also listening to Zhao Kun’s whereabouts report these days.

As the First Emperor, Ying Zheng had to care about national conditions and military every day. As a father, he had to always pay attention to the thief's son.

The shock effect a few days ago was very good. He wanted to comfort Zhao Kun, but before he could go to the palace, he received a report saying that Zhao Kun was running to the countryside every day by "understanding the people's sentiment", which forced him to send him.

Man protects it secretly.

Although Zhao Kun was operating in the Wang family's fiefdom, the murder of the Great Yuezhi envoy sounded a wake-up call to Ying Zheng. Therefore, he attached great importance to Zhao Kun's safety and did not want the tragedy to happen to Zhao Kun.

"Your Majesty, I am Meng Yi asking for a meeting."

The doctor ordered Meng Yi to nod and signal to Zhao Gao outside the door, and then entered Ying Zheng's study.

"Oh? That's going on?"

Ying Zheng put down the brush in his hand and glanced at the person who reported the report. The latter immediately stopped the sound and retreated aside.

After Meng Yi walked in, he bowed to Ying Zheng and said, "Go back to Your Majesty, after detailed investigation and inference, I have already found clues."

"Give a seat."

Ying Zheng raised his hand and signaled the palace servants to place the seat, then looked up at Meng Yi: "Who did it?"

"Back to Your Majesty, based on the physical evidence left on the scene and multiple investigations, I can conclude that it was done by the Qin people."

"Qin people? You mean that this case was not framed by the Donghu people, but by my Qin people who did it on purpose?"

Meng Yi sat at the table and said with a serious expression: "Although I don't believe what the Qin people did, it is indeed the case!"

"Do you know, whose people did it?"

"The conclusion cannot be drawn for the time being, but there are two people who are most suspected."

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes: "Who is?"

"Xin Sheng and Gongzi Kun."

Meng Yi looked at Ying Zheng with a complicated expression, and the latter looked surprised: "How is this possible?"

"I am just speculating, and there is no conclusive evidence yet!"

Meng Yi shook his head and said, "According to the description of local villagers, there is a young man who looks like a nephew of Lian Jin who has appeared near Beishan."

"Lian Jin?"

Ying Zheng frowned and asked, "Who is this?"

"Lian Jin Naixin's subordinates are currently serving as deputy generals."

"Then what is the connection with Zhao Kun?"

Meng Yi; "Prince Kun's new army is divided into two parts, one is trained by Wang Li and the other is trained by Jiang Chao. Lian Jin's nephew is in Jiang Chao's team."

Ying Zheng; "So you suspect they killed the Great Yuezhi Envoy?"

“There is this possibility….”

Meng Yi nodded, suddenly remembered something and said, "It may also be a frame-up."

"Then... are you here to find me today, do you want me to issue an order to investigate them?"

Ying Zheng thought for a while and asked.

"There is insufficient evidence now, and if you investigate rashly, you may be alarmed."

Meng Yi shook his head and said, "I am here to look for Your Majesty in hopes that Your Majesty will test the training results of Prince Kun in advance."

"Why is this?"

"When I was searching Lian Jin's nephew, I found that this person was extremely cunning and refused to reveal any information until I died. If the Great Yuezhi Envoy was really killed by the new army, the rest of the people would definitely have a common relationship with him.

Where!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng's face turned cold and said in a deep voice: "If it weren't for Zhao Kun's new army, it was Xin Sheng's... Have you ever thought about their purpose?"

"I know very little about General Xin. It is said that I have a close relationship with Li Zuo. As for Gongzi Kun, I don't know much about him."

Meng Yi replied truthfully: "The reason why I suspect them is entirely inferred based on the existing evidence!"

"Since that's the case, I'll give you some more time to investigate the case."

Ying Zheng: "As for the matter of presenting the training results in advance, let me consider it again!"

"I obey the order."

Meng Yi bowed his hand.

He also knew that it was all based on his own guesses that he could not convince the First Emperor, but it was also necessary to let the First Emperor understand the progress of the case.

Seeing that Ying Zheng had no idea of ​​talking about it, Meng Yi stood up and said goodbye with tactfulness.

Not long after Meng Yi left, Ying Zheng ordered the reporter, "You go and tell me that Wang Ben is coming to see me, and I will ask him if I have urgent matters!"

.........

At the same moment, at the entrance of Qiankou Village, Wu Cheng's carriage was stopped by the villagers.

It was similar to Amino at that time. Because Wu Cheng and the other two looked pretty and did not have a special pass from the Wang family, the villagers in charge of patrol regarded them as criminals and surrounded them.

Of course, because they are all Qin people, the villagers, in the spirit of compatriots, did not punch and kick like they did when they treated Amino.

"My fellow villagers, don't get me wrong. We are all here to find Gongzikun!"

Wu Cheng stood on the road with some amusement and explained to a villager holding a "dog beater" in his hand.

This villager is Zhang San who discovered Amino.

Although Amino was not a spy, Zhang San was a little disappointed, his performance won unanimous praise from Zhao Kun and Wang Li, so he gave him a lot of rewards in private.

Since then, Zhang San has become a sentry in Qiankou Village. Any suspicious people entering Qiankou Village must be investigated by him, no matter who it is.

"I've made it very clear just now. Either take out the pass or leave immediately!" Zhang San stared at Wu Cheng with an expressionless face and said.

Wu Cheng frowned and thought to himself, why are the little villagers so weak? Could it be that they really think that they are an imperial guard?

Just as Wu Cheng was about to take out his waist sign, the handsome young man in the carriage suddenly spoke, "Old Wu, haven't you noticed any difference between them?"

"Um?"

When Wu Cheng heard this, he was stunned and then turned his eyes to Zhang San and others. Sure enough, he found that these villagers were very different from those in his cognition.

Because the robes worn by the villagers did not have a patch!

"this......"

What's going on?

Could it be that these villagers are really dressed in imperial guards?

Thinking of the fact that before leaving, Zhao Kun told himself that the First Emperor would come to Pinyang. Now that the imperial guards have appeared near this village, there is only one possibility, that is, the First Emperor has come to Pinyang, and it is in this village.

But, no matter how these guys look like imperial guards?

Just when Wu Cheng was puzzled, a rapid sound of horse hooves passed by him, leaving behind a thick stream of dust.

“Huh?”

Wu Cheng exclaimed and looked at Zhang San with some surprise: "Why don't you stop them?"

Zhang San glanced at Jiang Chao who was leaving, and said strangely: "General Jiang is the guard of Gongzi Kun, and we are not blind, why stop him?"

"Who is Commander Jiang?"

Wu Cheng looked at Zhang San with confusion, thinking to himself that when was there a Commander Jiang beside Zhao Kun?

But Zhang San said impatiently, "General Jiang is General Jiang, how can there be so many who?"

"Then do you know who I am?"

"No matter who you are, either take out your pass or leave quickly."

Wu Cheng: "......"

Zhang San: “……….”

Both of them looked at each other without saying a word.

After a while, Wu Cheng smiled bitterly: "No wonder the young master always said that the old ones don't go, and the new ones don't come..."

Unexpectedly, after only a few months of walking, things had changed. It turned out that the young master had a new guard.

OK!

When I am older, the young master should find a younger one.

Thinking of this, Wu Cheng turned around and walked towards the carriage: "It seems that today is not the time, so let's go back and wait for the young master!"

"I'm afraid...we can't go back!"

The tall young man frowned and said, then looked up and looked forward.

I saw the fleet of cavalry leaving, turning back toward him.

"Is Commander Wu ahead?"
