At night, it was silent, and the lights in the huge palace in Handan were extinguished one by one.

For a moment, this ancient and long-standing palace emitted a dangerous aura like a ferocious beast in the dark.

The cool breeze whizzed across the earth, and the slashing branches rustled, reflecting on the windows, which felt like a group of demons were dancing.

Somehow, although Ying Zheng was lying on the bed, he remained in a state of pretending to sleep.

Moreover, because of the assassination at the Duhekoukou, he was not accompanied by Gongsun Yu, but by the weak Iron Eagle Guard and the secret guards with outstanding swordsmanship.

Gradually, the night became darker and darker.

The palace updater has already played the third update.

Ying Zheng, who had been unable to sleep, became more and more irritable, and he became less and less sleepy.

So much so that...

"Prepare the light!"

Ying Zheng sat up suddenly and shouted softly.

After a while, a palace servant immediately came in and lit the candles in the bedroom.

"Buzz buzz ~"

In a moment, all the candles in the palace were lit up, and the entire bedroom was lit up into the daytime.

Ying Zheng stood up from the bed wearing a nightgown, looked around, frowned, and then said to the palace servant: "Go and call me Dunliu!"

"promise."

The palace waiter said no and immediately left the bedroom.

Not long after, he hurried into the study.

"I am weak, I will pay my respects to your Majesty—"

"Okay, stop talking nonsense!"

Ying Zheng waved his hand and frowned and said, "I ask you, where is Li Anjun's convoy?"

"Around noon today, I just passed Shangdang County..."

He suddenly thought for a while and said, "It should be near Linluyi at this time!"

"Linwuyi?"

Ying Zheng was stunned: "I remember there was a deserted forest there."

"Linwu County belongs to Handan County, and is influenced by the Zhang River, so the trees are lush."

"I didn't ask you to analyze it for me!"

Ying Zheng glared at his eyes and said with some displeasure: "I am asking you, why is Li Anjun there?"

"this....."

He said with some hesitation: "Recently, the continuous rainfall has caused the increase of silt on the road. Li Anjun's convoy may have delayed his trip because the silt fell into the carriage!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng was so angry that he glared at him and couldn't help but complain: "There are a bunch of broken cars, why don't he do it? Isn't it good to put it there and wait until the sky clears before driving it?"

I am usually as quick as a monkey, so why do I be confused at the critical moment? Don’t you know Lin Shen’s danger?”

"Is this kid so proud? He thought he wouldn't take the assassin seriously if he repelled a group of assassins?"

As he said that, Ying Zheng turned his head and looked at Dunwei, frowned and said, "How many assassins have you ever suffered? Have I ever ignored the assassins?"

"this....."

He was speechless and said to himself that you didn't just ignore the assassin, you didn't even take the assassin seriously.

Not to mention anything else, just say that the assassination of the crossing the river mouth, and the assassin is almost here, and you are still standing there.

Although I wanted to complain that you father and son are the same, I said that I didn’t dare to say such dangerous speeches, so I pondered for a moment and asked tentatively: “Will the minister send someone to protect Li Anjun?”

"Don't worry about his ball!"

Ying Zheng said something unhappy, then walked to the table with big strides, picked up a cup of hot tea and took a sip, and hummed, "That kid is capable and has many guards around him. If he likes to make trouble, let him make trouble. I don't bother with him!"

After saying that, he waved his hand, "You go down, I'm going to sleep."

"Well....."

I was speechless and thought to myself that it was so fussy that it was midnight?

"I'm leaving."

He bowed and was about to leave the bedroom.

At this time, Ying Zheng suddenly called him: "Wait!"

"Um?"

"You'd better send someone to see what's going on!"

really.

Your Majesty, you are just a knife-like mouth and a tofu heart.

He was so concerned that he couldn't sleep, but he was so stubborn.

Although he was deeply whispered in his heart, he suddenly felt like a mirror in his heart. The next master of the Qin Dynasty was Zhao Kun.

Even if Ying Zheng didn't let him send someone to check it out, he would send someone to check it out.

After all, one emperor and another minister...

However, just as Dunliu was about to take the order and leave, a rumor suddenly came from outside the palace: "Report to Your Majesty, Princess Huayang is asking for a visit!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng and Dun Ruo were stunned, thinking why was she here?

"Super her come in-"

Ying Zheng reacted for a moment, then put down the teacup and waved his hand to the palace servant.

Soon, Princess Ying Yuanman of Huayang rushed in in a slow pace: "Father, please help me!"

Buzz —

As soon as these words came out, the entire bedroom trembled, and even the air seemed to have solidified.

But Ying Yuanman was covered in blood and threw herself to the ground, looking at Ying Zheng miserably: "Father, go and save Brother Kun!"

Ying Zheng's eyes narrowed, his face suddenly sank to the bottom of the valley, and he said coldly: "What are you talking about?"

Ying Yuanman barely supported her body and cried to Ying Zheng: "Before the father set out for Pinyang, the son minister had seen his brother off for Kun. The son brother missed the emperor's father and was lonely, so he was kind-hearted to join the son minister with his guard and commander Wu Cheng;

But Erchen is the eldest daughter of his father and emperor, and he is chaste. However, Commander Wu took advantage of the drunkenness to occupy Erchen. Originally, Erchen did not want to make a grudge with Brother Kun, but he couldn't help but feel wronged, so he wanted to ask Brother Kun for an explanation."

At this point, she reached out to cover her lips, but coughed up blood and fell on the floor.

Seeing this, Ying Zheng frowned into the character Sichuan, but did not speak.

After slowing down, Ying Yuanman continued: "Originally, Erchen planned to ask Brother Kun for an explanation, but Wu Cheng actually became evil and wanted to assassinate Erchen. Fortunately, Erchen knew some martial arts and had a personal maid who was desperately guarding him, so he escaped by chance."

"But..." She changed her mind and then said, "But on the way to escape, I didn't expect that in a dense forest, I found that Brother Kun was being intercepted and killed!"

"You said Zhao Kun was being intercepted?" Ying Zheng glared at his eyes and asked quickly: "Where is the dense forest?"

Ying Yuanman shook his head and said, "I don't know where the dense forest is, I only know that I am near Linluyi..."

Swish-

Hearing the three words "Linluyi", Ying Zheng suddenly turned his head and looked at Dunliu. Dunliu felt a sudden slap in his heart, and said anxiously: "I will take someone to Linluyi!"

"Slow down!"

Ying Zheng raised his hand and stopped him from weakening. Then he slowly walked to Ying Yuanman, looked down at her condescendingly, and asked calmly: "Yuanman, how long has it been since we met?"

"Um?"

Ying Yuanman blinked, looking puzzled.

She couldn't figure out why Ying Zheng suddenly asked this question, but she answered carefully, "Fourteen years."

"In a flash, you have changed a lot."

Hearing this, Ying Yuanman shook his head and sighed: "When he got married, he was only twenty-three years old. Now, there is no unchanging truth in the past fourteen years."

Ying Zheng nodded, then squatted down and looked directly at Ying Yuanman: "How are you doing these years?"

"It is a blessing for the sons to be able to share the worries of the father and the sons. The husband and family are very respectful to the sons, but they live a comfortable life."

Ying Yuanman looked back at Ying Zheng with a clear look without a trace of dodging.

Ying Zheng smiled, then nodded and said, "Okay, you have a good life, so your father will be relieved."

"Nei Kun..."

"You said Zhao Kun was intercepted, but he had no limits on his words. How could he trust you if his father made him?"

"My father, every word that my son said is true. If my father doesn't believe it, you can send someone to check it out. My son has some false words and I hope to deal with it with my father!"

As he said that, Ying Yuanman staggered and stood up.

However, the moment she stood up, a crisp sound suddenly rang in her bedroom.

bite--

The clear sound immediately attracted Ying Zheng's gaze. He saw his eyes condense and he stared straight at the ground, where there was a smooth and soft jade plaque.

There is a vivid tiger on the surface of this jade token, which looks scattered and very domineering.

You don’t have to think about him, just know that this jade token is Zhao Kun’s White Tiger Jade Token.

Ying Zheng looked at the jade plaque, then looked at Ying Yuanman, and asked calmly: "How come you have this jade plaque?"

"Um?"

Ying Yuanman was stunned for a moment, picked up the jade token, and asked Ying Zheng with a puzzled look on his face, "Father knows this jade token?"

"Tell me, why did you have this jade tablet?"
