Chapter 472: Assassination Suspicion (First Update)
"Your Majesty, Prince Hu Hai is really very treacherous, every time he makes arrangements and remarks about me, all of them are verbal statements, and there is no written evidence, so even if the monarch is assassinated today, no matter how you look at it, it is difficult to have anything to do with him, if the monarch uses this matter as an excuse to take it down, I am afraid that it will not be long before rumors will spread on the territory of Daqin!"
Although Yinggao has already said that he has his own way to deal with Hu Hai, because he has been dealing with Hu Hai here for a long time, Liu Wei also had to remind Yinggao that Hu Hai will leave no trace no matter what he does.
After saying this, Liu Wei just lowered his head, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and he didn't care if Yinggao didn't reply to him at the moment, so he said directly: "Your Excellency, that big man doesn't know if you have been captured?" Although this person is not from Xiangjun, according to my observations, his status in front of Hu Hai was not low at that time, and if the king captures this person and tortures him, he may be able to know something. ”
"It's very unfortunate that when this person found out that it was not me in the carriage, he directly gave up the assassination, and also gave up several companions behind this guy, and directly killed a bloody path, although he was shot by Daqin's guards, but he still used his familiarity with the terrain here and didn't know where to go, as for the companions behind him, they were all killed by Daqin's guards of Daqin."
When Liu Wei heard this, he sighed, and said in his heart that his identity by Hu Hai's side was basically exposed, and he hadn't done anything substantive for Yinggao, so wouldn't his role be equivalent to nothing? This made Liu Wei's heart full of frustration, and he didn't dare to look up at Yinggao sitting in front of him for a while.
"Your Excellency, Liu has done quite unfavorably for this matter, and please punish him, then all matters in Guilin County are all taken care of by Sun Qian, and Sun Qian's ability is enough to serve as the county guard, so you don't have to worry about Guilin County being unguarded, please rest assured that you will punish me!"
"Hmph, if I want to punish you, why waste so much time and effort grinding my teeth with you? You are still the county guard of Guilin County, and what happened before should be treated as if it had not happened, so you will follow my team directly to Nanhai County, and when the time comes, you will still meet as the county guard of Guilin County, and you will naturally know how I deal with Hu Hai. ”
As soon as Ying Gao said this, Liu Wei naturally didn't have any temper, yes, the emperor's time is quite precious to you, if he wanted to kill you a long time ago, how could he grind his teeth with you like this?
So, Liu Wei walked out dejectedly, got into the carriage before, and followed Yinggao to Nanhai County with a stomach full of questions.
"What? In addition to the mysterious big man who fled, including Liu Wei, he was lost in the army? ”
After sending Liu Wei and the big man, Hu Hai kept pacing in his mansion, waiting for the result of this assassination, although in order to prevent accidents, Hu Hai did not send out a single person who had a relationship with him, and in the end, even if something went wrong, Yinggao should not be able to find his head.
But as the mastermind behind this operation, Hu Hai naturally didn't want this operation to end in failure, what he wanted was a thunderous blow, and then as the son of the first emperor who was upright, he could show his strength in the vast land of Great Qin.
But according to the reply of the cronies he sent out to watch from a distance, it seems that this matter is really not going as smoothly as he predicted before.
"Yes, I only saw that the big man should be injured, but he escaped from the pursuit of the Great Qin Guards, but the place where he disappeared was also investigated after the Great Qin Guards retreated, and there was no trace of him, I don't know if he hid by himself, or was picked up by others, as for Liu Wei and others, I think it was also lost in the hands of the Great Qin Guards."
"Was the assassination ever successful?"
"This ...... Since we didn't pick up anyone who escaped, we don't know if the assassination was successful or not. ”
Such a result is really not in Hu Hai's previous prediction, but according to his conjecture, since the big man has escaped, then this matter still has a certain chance of success, but maybe the big man can't fully believe Hu Hai, afraid that he will make a move to unload the mill and kill the donkey, so he doesn't know where to hide.
After learning the news, Hu Hai hurriedly wrote a letter, the destination was naturally the mysterious person in the south of Xiangjun, he wanted to know for the first time whether the big man returned to where he should have been, and whether Yinggao was really successfully assassinated.
Hu Hai knew that according to the practice of the Great Qin Imperial Family, even if Ying Gao really finished his calf in this assassination, they would definitely not immediately make a fuss all over the city.
Because there was already Fusu in Nanhai County, the destination, and there were important ministers like Meng Yi in the same company, if he couldn't know the result of this assassination at the first time, it was very likely that Fusu would be cheaper in the end.
Hu Hai knew that according to the news he had received before, if there was no other news from the official, he would finally have to set off for Nanhai County in three days later to meet him, so he still wanted to know the news about whether he should go to this audience and how to go.
The big man who originally wanted to assassinate Yinggao was very confident, and he did have the capital of self-confidence, among the thousands of troops, he had obviously fallen for the strategy, and he actually returned to their base camp in the south of Xiangjun in a daze.
Of course, this was not his own walk back, but the Han arranged a person to pick him up in a hidden place in advance, although Hu Hai also arranged, but he naturally didn't believe Hu Hai, and after being injured, he insisted on getting there, and finally fainted because of excessive bleeding, but fortunately, the person who answered him brought him back to Zhao Cheng's side in time, and then after a few hours of recuperation, the big man woke up.
After Dahan woke up, he opened his eyes and saw Zhao Cheng sitting in his room with a letter in his hand, obviously waiting for him to wake up.
"Childe, this assassination of the Great Qin Emperor failed! He seems to have known in advance that we were going to assassinate us, that there was a trap in the carriage, and that he didn't know where he was hiding! ”
The first thing he did when he woke up, Dahan told Zhao Cheng what happened to him before he passed out, and Zhao Cheng, who had been nervously waiting for the news, was obviously a little disappointed after hearing the news. But after thinking for a moment, he frowned again.
"In your opinion, Hu Hai is not deceiving me and others, just now, I received a letter from Hu Hai, he doesn't know where you went, and the people who went with you have not returned, Hu Hai doesn't know if you have successfully assassinated the emperor of Great Qin, so he sent the letter."
Dahan struggled to sit up, briefly recalled the situation at the time, and then replied: "This matter should have nothing to do with that Hu Hai, one of the people sent by Hu Hai is Liu Wei, the county guard of Guilin County, this person doesn't know what handle fell into Hu Hai's hands, so he had to do this, but when I waited to see the carriage of the Great Qin Emperor, that Liu Wei suddenly turned against him, it can be seen that the relationship between him and the Great Qin Emperor is not ordinary, Hu Hai obviously did not think of this, which allowed Liu Wei to lead the way, Otherwise, although Liu Wei reminded me in time, the reason for my failure was not his reminder, it was that the emperor of Great Qin had already prepared, if it weren't for luck, I am afraid that I would have died in the chariot and horse of the Great Qin Emperor today. ”
After the big man finished speaking, his eyes were full of helplessness, he took Zhao Cheng to fight in Xianyang City for so many years, I don't know how many sons of the wife have slept with, and no one has found out the true identity of the two of them, relying on the strength of the big man, originally in his opinion, his assassination should be nine out of ten, but he doesn't want to end up with such a result, which is really a bit of a blow to him.
"Emperor Great Qin actually knew about this a long time ago? That Hu Hai is still asking me if the assassination was successful, so it seems that I should quickly break off the contact with Hu Hai, you have shown your head in Xiangjun these days is really a bit much, since the injury is not light today, you will be raised in this forest, Hu Hai, this person, I am afraid that this time it will not be. ”
"Not really? I think that Hu Hai is still quite ruthless in doing things, and he doesn't lose some intelligence, how can he not do it? Although the assassination was not successful this time, Hu Hai did not leave any evidence, and the Emperor of Great Qin would probably blame Liu Wei for this matter, even if Liu Wei said Hu Hai at that time, how could the emperor of Great Qin kill his younger brother without evidence? ”
"You don't have to underestimate the ability of the Great Qin Emperor, and don't forget how he defeated the Great Qin Emperor obtained by Hu Hai and Fusu, even the brother who was lurking hard by the side of the First Emperor did not fight the Emperor of Great Qin, and all the clansmen of my Zhao clan were put into it, it is enough to show the prestige of the Great Qin Emperor, Hu Hai did quite well when he was in Xianyang City, but since he arrived in this Xiang County, Hu Hai has imagined things too simply, although the emperor is far away in Xianyang City, But if he wanted to control the people and things of this elephant county, it would be really easy. ”
"Without Hu Hai, how can we take root in the Central Plains? Could it be that Gongzi is willing to spend all his time in this barren land? ”
Hearing Zhao Cheng say that Hu Hai was going to die, Dahan was anxious first, but he was thinking about when he could get rid of such a life quickly, but he didn't think that he had just seen some hope through Hu Hai now, and Hu Hai was about to finish his calf.
"In the past few years, I have endured in that dark place like a dungeon, although now this place is a little shabby, at least it is much better than I didn't know at the beginning, since the time of my brother's death, I know that the emperor of Great Qin that I am facing is not an ordinary person, rash action will only make you and me both die, today is a lesson."
Zhao Chengdu said this, the Han naturally couldn't refute anymore, indeed, even he didn't know how the emperor of Great Qin knew that Hu Hai was going to attack him, which was indeed a bit magical.
Two days passed quickly, Hu Hai didn't wait for a reply, he couldn't find the big man, and there was no news of Liu Wei, so he finally began to panic.
According to the plan, Hu Hai should rush to Nanhai County in the early morning of the next day to meet Yinggao with Fusu and Liu Wei, and this night, Hu Hai naturally couldn't sleep.
"Still no news over there?" This matter, the only person who knows the details may be Hu Hai's wife Qi Yi, the opposite of this kind of unknown, Qi Yi is also full of sorrow, like Hu Hai, the current situation makes her unable to judge what the real situation of this matter will be.
"I'm afraid there will be no news, and I don't know if the big man has returned safely, or died in an unknown hiding place, Liu Wei doesn't know if he died in the chaos, or how, in short, the result of this assassination, I really have this is difficult to guess."
"If this assassination fails, and Liu Wei is also captured by the king, won't Gongzi be in danger?"
Qi Yi heard this, and finally asked what he had been worried about, after all, if Liu Wei really fell into the hands of Yinggao, in Qi Yi's opinion, he would almost not help Hu Hai do anything to conceal it, after all, she knew how Hu Hai threatened Liu Wei at that time, and even helped to make some suggestions.
"But if this assassination is successful, if I don't go, not only will the benefits be taken away by Brother Fusu for nothing, but I may end up in a situation where I am a thief, and I will make a wedding dress for others in vain."
The two discussed it several times, and finally ended in Qi Yi's sentence of 'stay in the green mountains, don't worry about no firewood'......
After a long journey and an assassination halfway, Yinggao and Meng Yi finally arrived in Nanhai County on time, and at this time, the county guard of Nanhai County, of course, did not know what Yinggao and they experienced on the way.
But even so, it is not for nothing that makes Fusu troubled, that is, Guilin County and the county guard Liu Wei and the county guard Hu Hai of Xiang County did not arrive in Nanhai County on time to greet Yinggao with him.
This is not an ordinary thing, the emperor came to Nanhai County for the first time, Guilin and Xiang County and Nanhai are one, and the two of them played disappearance at this time, which is definitely a great disrespect to Yinggao, just before Yinggao arrived, Fusu also urgently sent someone to urge, but there was still no news.
