my grandfather was qin shi huang

Chapter 370 Disrupting the Situation

He quietly hid among the crowd of people watching the excitement on the roadside, but because of his tall and burly stature, he was too conspicuous. In just a quarter of an hour, three policemen came over to check his identity information.

Zhao Ying couldn't bear the disturbance.

But there is no way. This is not the Tang and Song Dynasties. The commodity economy was developed. Teahouses and restaurants can be found everywhere on the roadside. You can just find a place to sit down and watch the excitement.

But fortunately, after repeated checks several times, it was found that he was indeed "innocent" and no one cared about him anymore.

On the contrary, many older girls and younger wives would glance over from time to time.

Zhao Ying could only pretend not to see it.

With my grandma and my hands behind my back, I was excitedly preparing to see the excitement of "I" entering the city.

…………

"Chen Wu (Song Wu) led his colleagues and elders in the county to greet His Royal Highness the eldest grandson of the Emperor..."

Outside Changsha County, seeing the team of "Zhao Ying" approaching slowly, County Governor Wood and County Lieutenant Song Wu quickly jumped off their horses and hurried to meet them.

However, to their surprise, they were greeted by a handsome and elegant young man.

"Thank you for your help. I welcome you all! I, Zhang Liang, the Prime Minister of the General's Office, have met all of you."

Zhang Liang jumped off his horse and returned the greeting meticulously.

Seeing Zhang Liang jump off the horse and not get out of the way of the team, Wood, Song Wu and others couldn't help but frown slightly and couldn't help but look at each other, feeling a little unhappy in their hearts.

Is this a show of intimidation, or is this coming from someone with bad intentions?
The dignified county guards and lieutenants of my own had gone out to welcome the city officials and elders in person, and they had already done enough etiquette, but the emperor's eldest grandson didn't even show his face?
In the end, Wood, who was still the county guard, slightly raised his hand to Zhang Liang and asked.

"Zhang Fucheng, I don't know where His Highness is now. Can you allow me to go and pay my respects first?"

Of course they had heard of this Zhang Liang. After all, the three generations of this man's family had been shouting that they would not be at odds with the violent Qin, but he turned around and became the confidant of His Highness the Emperor Changsun.The speed of transformation is jaw-dropping.

The reputation is quite great.

Zhang Liang didn't seem to hear the displeasure in his mouth, and he bowed his hands humbly.

"Secretary Wu, gentlemen, it's not that His Highness is arrogant and refuses to receive you, but His Highness has already entered the city..."

Wood:…

Song Wu:......

The officials and local elders behind him couldn't help but look at each other with a hint of fear in their eyes.

His Royal Highness the Emperor Changsun has entered the city unknowingly!
"His Royal Highness has made an agreement with his subordinates that he will go to the Sheriff's Mansion to meet us at noon today..."

Having said this, Zhang Liang smiled apologetically, cupped his hands and said.

"Your Highness has ordered that you please keep this matter secret for the time being..."
After all, Zhang Liang represents the emperor's eldest grandson, and he has already spoken for this reason. Even if Wood, Song Wu and others were dissatisfied, they did not dare to show it openly and immediately responded with a smile.

"Dare you disobey your orders——"

After saying that, he turned around and waved his hands to everyone.

With the team, they automatically gathered into Zhang Liang and his party. Wood, Song Wu and others even reined in the reins and walked side by side with Zhang Liang.

……

For the people of Changsha County, events such as His Royal Highness the Emperor Changsun's entry into the city are naturally a rare event.

Especially when I saw the rare county officials who were rarely seen on weekdays, each with a respectful expression, protecting the middle carriage in the middle of the team like stars over the moon, I couldn't help but be dazzled.

They all stretched their necks and looked into the carriage.

At this time, Zhui Gu was attracting everyone's attention.

He was so nervous that his muscles were all tense and he did not dare to move for fear of losing the majesty of "His Royal Highness the Emperor's Grandson".The people outside didn't know that there was a fake in the car at this time. The real emperor's grandson was just like them, crowding in the crowd to watch the fun.

Although he was far away and couldn't see clearly, he could still see the tall grandson of the emperor in the carriage, with a chin and a tiger's beard, eyebrows raised and eyes raised, not angry and intimidating, and a majestic appearance.

Immediately I felt that my trip was worthwhile, His Highness the Emperor's Grandson perfectly matched my imagination of His Highness the Emperor's Grandson.

After all, this is a fierce man who can defeat the Four Kingdoms in one day and defeat the Yueshi with three arrows!
Can he really be as good as those storytellers say, more than eight feet tall, with starry eyebrows and sharp eyes, a face like a crown jewel, a graceful demeanor, and a way of treating people like a spring breeze?
Pooh--

It must be their selfish motives, deliberately forcing the emperor's eldest grandson to look like a scholar to them!

Listening to the people around him commenting on "his" appearance and rambling on in a serious manner, Zhao Ying couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and couldn't laugh or cry. He never imagined that he would look like this in the eyes of the people. .

Zhao Ying is just over two meters tall. Standing among the crowd, he looks like he stands out from the crowd, standing half taller than him.

Zhang Liang, who was riding a horse and walking side by side with Wood, Song Wu and others, naturally saw him. Seeing him there with his hands behind his back, looking at his team with interest, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. Then he calmly withdrew his gaze.

On the contrary, Wood and Song Wu couldn't help but feel moved when they saw Zhao Ying.

Zhao Ying's identity was vaguely confirmed.

After all, not to mention this era, even in later generations, there are very few people who can grow more than two meters apart.How could it be such a coincidence that on the day His Royal Highness the Emperor Changsun entered the venue, a person appeared on the roadside...

However, His Highness the Emperor Changsun was willing to play this trick of wearing a white dragon fish suit, but they did not dare to expose it in public. The two of them looked at each other, and then withdrew their gaze in a tacit understanding.

As for the rest, I'm not too worried.

After all, they had long received the news of His Royal Highness the Emperor's grandson's southern tour. Even if something really happened, they had already taken care of it. How could they wait until he discovered it?

Following the flow of people, Zhao Ying had already taken his daughter and walked quietly to the side of the arch bridge.

The road suddenly narrowed when it reached the bridge.

Zhang Liang, Wood, Song Wu and others could still walk side by side, but the team protecting His Royal Highness the Emperor Changsun had to change columns and form a long line.

"Zhao Ying's" carriage was finally exposed to everyone's sight!
At this moment, Zhao Ying couldn't help but move his eyes, and saw a strong figure wearing a brown short jacket and holding a crossbow suddenly flashed out from under the bridge. Amidst the exclamations, he calmly aimed at "Zhao Ying" "The carriage where it is located.

"There are assassins, protecting the emperor's eldest grandson!"

The welcoming team probably really didn't expect that someone would dare to assassinate the emperor's grandson in the city. There was a chaos. On the contrary, Zhao Ying brought [-] forbidden guards and took action immediately. Seeing that he couldn't stop the horse, he directly abandoned his body. The war horses dismounted and rushed towards the carriage where His Royal Highness the Emperor Changsun was.

Zhui Gu, who had been waiting for a long time, heard the exclamations from the crowd and leaned against the carriage in an instant.

Although Zhao Ying declined the First Emperor's carriage, the First Emperor still asked Hei to watch him personally and modify his carriage before he set off.

Inside the carriage, a thick layer of copper plates was attached.

Even with a powerful military crossbow, there is no way it can penetrate this deck.

Looking at the swarming Qin troops and the raised bows and arrows, Master Jing looked at the "panicked" emperor's eldest grandson in the carriage and calmly pulled the trigger in his hand.

This is an enhanced hand crossbow specially customized by him from an expert. From fifty steps away, its potential can shoot through three layers of thick armor, and its power is comparable to that of a powerful crossbow in the military.

He was confident that he could shoot the eldest grandson of Emperor Qin before he was pierced by thousands of arrows.

"Although I am dead, the Qin Dynasty will also die in its second life. What regrets, what regrets!"

Then, just before he was pierced by thousands of arrows, he watched helplessly as the crossbow arrow he had placed high hopes for hit the iron plate, hit the carriage where the emperor's eldest grandson was sitting, and then fell cleanly.Mr. Jing:......

how can that be!

However, before he could figure out the problem, his entire consciousness had been swallowed up by the boundless darkness, leaving only a look of astonishment on his face...

His Royal Highness the Emperor Changsun was assassinated on his way into the city.

This is an extremely serious and egregious matter.

Whether it was County Sheriff Wood, County Lieutenant Song Wu, or the accompanying officials and village elders, all of them had pale faces and their clothes were wet with sweat.

If His Royal Highness the Emperor Changsun was assassinated and killed here, the sky would really fall.

There was no need for Zhang Liang to talk about the rest. County Sheriff Wood and County Lieutenant Song Wu personally ordered that the four doors be closed tightly and the whole city be under martial law. They went from house to house to investigate the assassins' accomplices one by one.

The first unlucky person is the school captain who is responsible for maintaining security on this street today.

However, when Song Wu, the county lieutenant, arrived at the school captain's home with his troops, the school captain's family, including more than ten people, had already died.

The garden is full of blood.

Song Wu's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

……

Something like this happened as soon as he entered the city. Wood no longer cared about the emperor's grandson sneaking into the city first, because Zhang Liang directly held the First Emperor's accessories and forcefully took over all the affairs of the county.

In the county, from Wu and Songwu onwards, all middle and upper-level officials, including the county magistrate, Zhu Bo, Shi Shi, and Priest Ling, were temporarily suspended from their official positions to cooperate with the investigation.

Changsha County suddenly became trembling.

Those wealthy families couldn't help but secretly complain, and those who had secretly communicated with Mr. Jing before could not help but feel frightened.

They did not expect that Zhang Liang would be so strong, nor did they expect that the emperor's eldest grandson would be so afraid of death that he would decorate the inside and outside of the carriage with such a thick layer of copper plates...

However, what made them feel a little relieved was that Mr. Jing was dead, and he died completely. He was shot to death by random arrows. When he was fished out, he had become like a hedgehog, not to mention his identity. Even people can no longer see clearly.

"Your Highness, since you had already predicted it, why didn't you order someone to capture him alive? Instead, he shot the assassin to death on the spot..."

Ren Chang, the middle doctor who came with him, looked at His Royal Highness the Emperor's Grandson with a somewhat puzzled expression.

Judging from the situation at the time, Zhao Ying had every chance to capture the assassin alive and then pull out his accomplices. However, what surprised them was that His Highness the Emperor Changsun actually had the assassin shot to death.

It even made it difficult to identify the body, which directly blocked the clues for subsequent tracing.

Zhao Ying glanced around. Although the officials who came with him did not say anything, they had some recognition in their expressions.

He couldn't help but smile and looked at Zhang Liang standing aside.

"Zhang Fucheng, do you think so too..."

When Zhang Liang saw Zhao Ying calling him, he quickly got up from the table and bowed.

"Wei Chen believes that this is precisely the brilliance of His Highness..."

Everyone: ...

So, is this the reason why this thief can become the confidant of His Highness the Emperor Changsun?

It's just shameless!
When Zhao Ying heard this, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, showing a satisfied smile, and gestured.

"You might as well tell me..."

Zhang Liang then turned around, as if he didn't notice everyone's contemptuous gazes, he looked around at everyone with a humble expression, and then spoke in a calm voice.

"What's the use of clarifying the identity of the assassin for us? Capturing a mere assassin alive is nothing more than arresting a few accomplices to make His Highness feel bad..."

Having said this, Zhang Liang smiled.

"What your Highness wants is personal gains and losses? What Your Highness wants is to calm down the situation as soon as possible, solve the case in Changsha County, and fulfill His Majesty's entrustment! Killing an assassin will certainly break a clue, but it will also disrupt the situation here. situation……"

Seeing everyone with thoughtful expressions on their faces, Zhang Liang said calmly.

"You can fish in troubled waters. You have already read the case files of Yuzhongboshu. You should know the difficulty of this matter. According to ordinary methods, it is almost impossible to investigate clearly. Only when the situation becomes chaotic can we have a chance. …”

Zhao Ying looked at Zhang Liang who was talking eloquently and couldn't help but nodded slightly, with a look of excitement in his eyes.

He is truly worthy of being a talent that he tried every means to retain.

He knew something at a glance, and suddenly understood his intention from his own small order.I have to say that it is easy to work with such people.

"good!"

Zhao Ying smiled and nodded at Zhang Liang, then looked around at everyone.

"Zhang Fu Cheng is solely responsible for tracking down the assassin. Everyone must obey Zhang Fu Cheng's orders. Those who disobey orders will be severely punished——"

"promise!"

Everyone bowed to accept the order.

……

County Sheriff's Office.

From Wood and Song Wu down, all the officials who had been succeeded in their duties stayed in their squad rooms uneasily, not knowing what kind of consequences they would lead to.

"Without internal support, the assassin would never have had the chance to hide in the bridge and assassinate His Highness the Emperor's grandson..."

Having said this, Wood snorted coldly and looked around at everyone.

"I advise you, it is best not to have anything to do with this matter, otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless..."

All were silent.

At this time, the more you say, the more likely you are to be wrong. The less you say, the less likely it is. Before His Highness the Emperor Changsun makes a decision, it is best for people like you to keep silent.

"Sigh - even if this matter has nothing to do with us, I'm afraid we can't escape the involvement this time. I still don't know how His Highness the Emperor Changsun will deal with us..."

Someone in the crowd suddenly sighed quietly.

This sentence immediately resonated with everyone.

I became more and more worried.

At this moment, I suddenly heard rapid footsteps coming from outside.

"My lords, His Highness the Emperor's Grandson has summoned you all to discuss something..."

Everyone's hearts suddenly lifted.

Finally, are the results coming?
