Chapter 696: Chaos in the Prime Minister's Mansion
When the old man finished eating and checking out, Wei Xiaobao also stood up.
Those diners suddenly felt bored and could only bow their heads and eat noodles.
Wei Xiaobao followed behind the old man, and he didn't hide it, and he was almost only one step away from the old man.
The old man felt very awkward and had to speed up.
But no matter how fast he was, he couldn't get rid of Wei Xiaobao.
When he arrived at the intersection where there were many people, the old man stopped suddenly, Huo Ran turned around, and his old eyes stared at Wei Xiaobao: "You young man, what do you want to do?" ”
In this public, the old man was not afraid.
Wei Xiaobao smiled and asked, "Old man, I just want to know, what do you mean when you just said that Shi Shuangye may not be able to come back alive?" ”
The old man regretted it very much in his heart, and knew that it was easy to provoke disaster if he talked indiscriminately in a crowded place.
He didn't hold back for a while just now, so he said that, and he regretted it after speaking, so he ran away quickly after eating noodles.
I didn't expect Wei Xiaobao to be so persistent that he would chase after him.
"That's." The old man said nervously.
Wei Xiaobao chuckled and said, "So the girl in the old man's mouth is talking about the current empress Shi Shuangye?" ”
The old man secretly said that it was not good, he didn't expect this.
When Wei Xiaobao asked just now, he should have directly said that the person he said was not Shi Shuangye.
Obviously, it's too late to change your tune.
Wei Xiaobao always had a kind smile on his face, and said, "Old man, if you tell me the truth, I promise not to hurt you." ”
In this busy city, there are many people, and if you talk about it, it is easier to invite greater disasters.
The old man didn't say a word, and continued to walk forward.
Soon he entered a narrow alley.
It's very secluded and very few people come here.
Seeing Wei Xiaobao appear at the mouth of the alley, the old man said helplessly: "I'm just hearsay, and I shouldn't be sure." ”
Wei Xiaobao urged: "Let's hear it." ”
"Her Majesty the Empress drove the expedition in person, and wanted to quickly defeat the army of the Qin State, but in the rear, when Zhao Gao, the prime minister of the court, was said to do something to make His Majesty die in ......" When the old man said this, he was so nervous that he almost knelt on the ground.
Zhao Gao?
Unexpectedly, Zhao Gao's guy actually became the prime minister of Shiguo.
In fact, it is not difficult to understand that for Shi Shuangye, everyone is not trustworthy.
Even Wei Lan and Shi Shuangye were on guard.
And Zhao Gao has been controlled by Wei Xiaobao, perhaps because of this, Shi Shuangye will be entrusted with important tasks.
Wei Xiaobao felt that it was better to ask Zhao Gao directly if he continued to ask this old man, and immediately asked, "Where is the Prime Minister's Mansion?" ”
"Turn left out of the alley, turn right after three streets, and then keep going straight ahead to see the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion." The old man was born and raised in Eagle Claw Pass, and was very familiar with the structure in Eagle Claw Pass.
Wei Xiaobao thanked him, took out a gold ingot from the storage bag and threw it to the old man, then turned around and left.
The old man looked at the gold ingot in his hand, and felt as if he were in a dream, very unreal.
In an instant, Wei Xiaobao had already appeared at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion is quite magnificent, and the stone lion at the door is as high as Zhangxu, lifelike, majestic.
At the door stood a soldier in armor, his eyes cold and murderous.
Wei Xiaobao stepped forward, clenched his fists and said, "Under Wei Xiaobao, I have an urgent matter to meet Lord Zhao, and I am sorry to report it, thank you." ”
"The Prime Minister is very busy and has no time." The soldiers on the left were very tall and burly, and they didn't look at Wei Xiaobao squarely.
The soldier on the right was carefully looking at Wei Xiaobao.
A little white face like Wei Xiaobao dares to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion, maybe there is really something very important.
Wei Xiaobao said with a smile: "Zhao Gao is really a great official. ”
"Bold, dare to call the prime minister by his name." The burly soldier pressed his hand to the hilt of the sword at his waist, his face full of murderous energy.
The soldier on the right stretched out his hand to stop him, and said in a low voice, "What if this person really has something important?" ”
The empress had just established the capital in Eagle Claw Pass, and the situation in the world was very turbulent.
At the moment, they can play prestige here, but if they want to delay the important matter, they will definitely be the first to lose their heads.
It's not difficult to just make a report.
If Zhao Gao is unwilling to see Wei Xiaobao, then if something big really happens later, they can't be blamed, and naturally Zhao Gao will take care of everything.
Now Zhao Gao is very busy, if he goes in to report, he will be scolded at most, but he will not lose his head.
"Then there you go." The burly soldier said coldly.
The soldier on the right nodded, and quickly entered the mansion to report.
The soldiers guarding the back didn't look at this side.
They will only strike if someone wants to force their way in, or if they come to the house to make trouble.
Wei Xiaobao stood in front of the door, but he was not in a hurry at this time, so he waited patiently first to see if Zhao Gao dared to see him.
There will be many people with the same name and surname in this world, and I believe that when Zhao Gao heard Wei Xiaobao's name, the first thing that came to mind was him, Wei Xiaobao, the overseer of the East Factory.
After a while, the soldier ran out quickly, waved his hand, and said, "The Prime Minister said no." ”
The burly man sneered, and knew that this would be the result.
The soldier who went to report was obviously a little embarrassed, and his attitude towards Wei Xiaobao had also changed a lot.
The smile on Wei Xiaobao's face also disappeared in an instant, and he said coldly: "Let Zhao Gao get out." ”
"Bold." This time, the burly soldier drew his saber.
The soldiers guarding the rear also looked at this side, their right hands all pressed on the hilt of their swords, ready to attack at any time.
These soldiers guarding the gate are basically in the foundation building period.
Let the monk Zhuji guard the door, this is also the treatment that the prime minister should have.
Wei Xiaobao wanted to make a big fuss here, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was too troublesome, so he jumped up and stepped straight into the prime minister's mansion from the air.
The soldiers guarding the gate obviously did not expect this, and they drew their swords and rushed into the mansion.
There were many guards patrolling the house, and when they heard that an assassin had broken in, they all went into action.
In an instant, the Prime Minister's Mansion fell into chaos.
The burly soldier worked hardest, desperate to find Wei Xiaobao.
At the same time, he was also muttering in his heart, Wei Xiaobao was able to jump so high in one leap, which showed his superb cultivation.
If they really meet on a narrow road, can he defeat Wei Xiaobao?
At this moment, Zhao Gao stayed in the study, with many letters in front of him.
These letters came from all over the country, and they were originally written to Shi Shuangye, but since Shi Shuangye was not there, he could only reply to the letters.
He basically hasn't slept much in the past few days, and he is so tired that he is about to collapse.
Rao is like this, he still has to cheer up and work hard.
After all, Shi Shuangye's backer is Wei Xiaobao, if he can't satisfy Shi Shuangye, and Shi Shuangye goes to Wei Xiaobao to complain, then he will definitely be unlucky.
"Wait......" wrote a reply, and Zhao Gao looked up sharply.
What is the name of the person who asked to be seen outside the door?
Wei Xiaobao?
Yes, yes, yes, it's Wei Xiaobao, that's right.
This sucks.
Zhao Gao's face changed suddenly, and the pen in his hand fell to the ground.
He hurriedly grabbed the official hat placed on the side, put it on casually, and then ran out of the study quickly, shouting: "Come on, come on......
At this moment, there was chaos in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
All the guards knew that an Assassin had broken in, but they searched everywhere and found no trace of the Assassin.
"My lord, what do you command?" Some soldiers heard Zhao Gao's shout and rushed quickly.
Zhao Gao hurriedly said: "Quick, go to the outside of the mansion and invite the Lord of Wei in, go and ...... quickly."
Seeing those soldiers staring at him blankly, Zhao Gao roared angrily and urged.
The soldiers were frightened and hurried outside.
They had never seen the Prime Minister in such a hurry.
"Wait, why is it so noisy outside?" Zhao Gao heard the voice from outside, called out to the people and asked.
One of the soldiers replied, "Lord Hui, just now, an assassin broke into the mansion, and we are searching. ”
At this moment, a large group of people rushed in and surrounded Zhao Gao in the middle.
Since there was no way to catch the assassin quickly, Zhao Gao could only be closely protected first.
If the Prime Minister makes a mistake, none of them can afford it.
