The convoy of the first emperor's eastern tour was divided into three parts, the first part was that the emperor's pro-army had to advance ten miles to clear the obstacles for the emperor in advance.

The second part is the emperor's chariot, the black feather guard riding in front of the road, four troikas following, surrounded by the emperor's personal guards, or driving the carriage or temporarily acting as servants to obey the dispatch at all times.

The last part was the 20,000 lieutenant army led by Wang Ben to follow the escort, and there were also some chariots and horses carrying sundries, including palace maids to serve the emperor.

The first emperor's convoy walked all the way out of Xianyang and stretched for several miles, the banner covered the sky and the dust was flying, and from a distance, it felt like a black dragon, magnificent and mighty.

Zhao Jun rode the yellow horse, followed by the roaring dog who trotted all the way directly to the middle of the horse team, and inquired about the emperor's frame.

The carriage of the first emperor is one zhang wide and more than three zhang long, and the top cover is wide and sturdy and dotted with gold and jade, which looks luxurious and noble.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Jun asks to see you." Zhao Jun shouted outside to see him.

After a while, Zhao Gao got out of the carriage, glanced at Zhao Jun and said loudly, "The emperor announced that you are coming in." ”

Zhao Jun heard this dismount and stepped directly into the carriage, after entering the carriage, he saw that the first emperor was sitting on the bed in the carriage, there was an incense burner in the middle of the incense burner was smoking spices, there were two copper lamps on the left and right, and there was a long case on the side, on which some bamboo slips and pen and ink were put on it, which should be used by the emperor to deal with important court affairs on the way, and Zhao Gao knelt on the side and lowered his head, as if the emperor did not call him he did not exist.

"See Your Majesty." Zhao Jun saluted after coming in.

A smile appeared on the emperor's calm face at this time: "Hehe, the convoy has just set off, what are you looking for me?" ”

Zhao Jun opened his mouth and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister wants to ask for orders to act alone to capture the remnants of the Six Kingdoms. ”

"Oh, what do you mean? Presumably Madame Qing told you about the main purpose of this mission, these people are on my way, why do you want to act alone? The First Emperor said with a look on his face suspicious.

"Back to Your Majesty, I think Your Majesty's chariots and horses have thunderous power, and I am afraid that people will run away before the assassins arrive, which is not conducive to our capture." Of course, Zhao Jun can't say that I know history, and I also know that Zhang Liang and others are waiting for you in Bolangsha.

The first emperor's face moved after hearing this, although what Zhao Jun said was suspected of sycophancy, but his words were reasonable, but if Zhao Jun did not succeed, what should he do if he encountered an assassination on the way.

At this time, Zhao Gao observed his words and screamed beside him: "Then how can you guarantee that you will be able to catch these people?" If you can't catch it, why will you easily leave the convoy and put the emperor's safety at risk? ”

Zhao Jun couldn't help but be ruthless at this time, this Zhao Gao is really ghostly, and I am afraid that he also has this idea when he looks at the emperor's face at this time.

Gritting his teeth, Zhao Jun suddenly spoke: "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to make a military order, this trip will definitely catch the assassin and find out the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, otherwise it will be at Your Majesty's disposal." ”

The First Emperor looked stunned when he heard this, and then inspected Zhao Jun's face for a long time, until finally he said in a deep voice: "Are you completely sure?" Do you know the consequences of a military order? If you can't do it, I can take your head. ”

"Grasp that there is not ten percent but seventy percent, for the opportunity of this seventy percent to capture the remnants of the six countries, the minister can gamble his head." Zhao Jun was resolute.

"Haha, okay, I didn't misread you." The First Emperor suddenly burst out laughing, and finally spoke again: "If you can kill the assassin this time, and then you can find out the group of Han, Wei, and Zhao, I will promote you to one of the three commanders of the Black Ice Terrace, and your merits will be added to the first knight." ”

Zhao Jun was overjoyed when he heard this: "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

Although what he said was a seventy percent chance, he actually knew the location of the characters, and it was not difficult to break Zhang Liang's assassination by catching those behind Zhang Liang, and Zhang Liang's assassination in history was not successful at all.

At first, he was still thinking about how to climb to the position of the three major commanders, and then with this position of commander, he could make some meritorious deeds, and he could ask for a county guard or something, but he didn't expect the first emperor to send the opportunity.

And if you really want to defend a county, you will be able to develop smoothly, and once the world is in chaos, you will have enough strength to protect yourself.

The First Emperor finally said almost jokingly, "Well, but I have something I want your help with." ”

"Your Majesty, please speak." Zhao Jun was stunned for a moment, what could the emperor ask him for help.

I only heard the First Emperor slowly speak: "That's the case, I want you to take Hu Hai with you during the mission to sharpen him well." ”

"Huh? This task is dangerous, in case" Although Zhao Jun didn't finish a sentence, the meaning was already very clear, and I couldn't afford this responsibility.

I don't want the First Emperor to say strongly: "Don't worry, as long as you try your best to protect him, if something really happens, I won't impose blame on you, Zhao Gao, you will take Zhao Jun to the back to pass the order Hu Hai, just say that it is my order." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister will do his best to protect Prince Huhai." Zhao Jun had no choice but to answer, although the emperor's words were like that, but if something really happened, he would definitely not be able to escape responsibility, and taking Hu Hai, the second ancestor, was equivalent to bringing a time bomb.

Zhao Gao was very jealous when he heard this, and the opportunity he had always wanted was taken away by Zhao Jun, but he could only feel sorry in his heart, and on the surface he respectfully obeyed the order, and then took Zhao Jun to the carriage that Hu Hai was riding.

On the way, Zhao Gao said with a caring smile in front of him: "Zhao Jun, the errand given to you by the emperor must be handled well, Hu Hai Gongzi must not make a mistake, otherwise your sin will be great, and the military order, maybe it will be a head." ”

Zhao Jun smiled coldly after hearing this: "Don't worry, I will definitely live longer than you." ”

"Hmph, uninteresting stuff!" Zhao Gao's face turned pale, and he snorted coldly, and then accelerated his pace.

Zhao Jun secretly said that this Zhao Gao can really bear it, he killed his younger brother and son-in-law, he can still hold back and not do it to himself, but the more Zhao Jun is in his heart, the more uneasy he is, the most terrifying thing about the poisonous snake is when it is ready to attack.

Soon, the two walked to the carriage that Hu Hai was riding, at this time Hu Hai was not in the carriage, but standing next to the driver to play, the driver was frightened on his forehead and broke out in a cold sweat, if this little ancestor accidentally fell, he had a few heads that were not enough for the emperor to cut off.

"Master Huhai, the emperor has an order."

Zhao Gao walked closer and said with a smile as he trotted with the carriage, while Zhao Jun rode a horse and followed.

Hu Hai was stunned and glanced back at Zhao Gao, but when he saw that Zhao Jun was also behind, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hey, you're there too." Hu Hai opened his mouth to ask, but when he saw the Howling Sky Dog following Zhao Jun, he was immediately overjoyed: "The Roaring Sky Dog? Haha, put me down. ”

After speaking, Hu Hai kept urging the driver next to him, but how dare the driver stop at will, if it caused chaos in the convoy, he would be punished.

Zhao Jun smiled at Hu Hai at this time: "Don't worry, this time your father wants you to go on a mission with me, and you are playing on the road." ”

"Really?" Hu Hai was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Zhao Jun with a happy face, he didn't care if the task was not a task, what he cared about was being able to get out of the boring convoy, and he could also play with Zhao Jun and the Howling Sky Dog.

Zhao Jun nodded and asked, "Am I still lying to you?" ”

After hearing this, Hu Hai immediately smiled happily: "Haha, that's great, it just so happens that I also brought the double hammer, and then you will teach me on the road, and I will definitely defeat you in the future." ”

"Uh, okay." Zhao Jun was stunned, at first he was just coaxing Hu Hai to play, but he didn't expect this little kid to remember it in his heart.

At this time, Zhao Gao smiled at Hu Hai next to him: "Master Hu Hai, this trip is very dangerous all the way, you must be careful, if Zhao Jun can't protect you, you must remember to ask others for help, such as your brother Jiang Lu will also be with you." ”

What's more, Hu Hai immediately retorted after hearing this: "Hmph, do I want someone else to protect me, my son's pair of sledgehammers is invincible all over the world, except for Zhao Jun, if you don't believe it, you can compete with me, believe it or not, I hit your head with a hammer." ”

"Gongzi Hu Hai said with a smile, how can the old slave compare with you." Zhao Gao's embarrassed smile at this time was extremely ugly, I am afraid that it will be really difficult to get close to Hu Hai in the future, thinking that Zhao Gao will not stay long, he turned around and left.

And after Zhao Gao left, Hu Hai turned his head and looked at Zhao Jun with a flattering look and smiled: "Hehe, how about it, I taught Zhao Gao a lesson for you just now, should you let the Roaring Sky Dog play with me." ”

Zhao Jun was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud, Hu Hai, this guy, is full of ghost ideas.

"Okay, it's not impossible, but" Zhao Jun deliberately lengthened his voice.

Hearing this, Hu Hai couldn't help but eagerly ask, "But what? Say it quickly. ”

Zhao Jun smiled: "But, you can't call me by my name in the future." ”

Hu Hai was stunned: "What is that called?" ”

"Call Brother Jun."

"Okay, Brother Jun, I'll call you Brother Jun in the future."

When the emperor's motorcade left the Xianyang range, it was getting late and wanted to stop to rest, Zhao Jun took Hu Hai to pack up the salute, and then said goodbye to the emperor and left directly.

And not long after, Zhao Gao took advantage of his free time to sneak into a nearby jungle under the cover of night.

And not long after he arrived, a man in black appeared, and when he walked three steps in front of Zhao Gao, he bowed down with his sword: "See Master Hou." ”

"Well, get up." Zhao Gao waved his hand in a deep voice, and finally spoke: "From now on, you will mobilize enough manpower to closely monitor Zhao Jun's whereabouts, be sure to find out the purpose of his trip, and wait for the opportunity to disrupt his actions, and report to me immediately if there is any abnormal situation." ”

"Yes, Master Hou." The man said a word and quickly disappeared into the night.

Zhao Gao smiled coldly at this time, his eyes flashed with a poisonous snake-like cold light, and he looked particularly gloomy in the dark jungle.

"Zhao Jun, I see how you should explain to the emperor after you fail this mission."
