Zhang Han was silent for a moment and then replied, "National Preceptor, the last general did not know any news about this assassination before."
Gu Xun waved his hand, "I know you don't understand."
"But even if you didn't know it beforehand, do you still know nothing now after the fact?"
Zhang Han's eyelids dropped and he pretended not to know, "I don't understand what you mean."
"As long as you have an idea." Gu Xun didn't care about his pretending to be stupid. As a minister, he only had this choice for this kind of thing. "Anyway, it's fine as long as King Qi Jian has nothing to do, and after this accident,
, the next road will be much easier."
Zhang Han didn't speak. He still lowered his head with his hands behind his hands and stood with his eyebrows lowered. He only slightly moved his head up and down a few times, which was considered to be in agreement with Gu Xun's words.
The rest of the journey depends on how Ying Zheng reacts in Xianyang.
If he directly went to war with this and mobilized an army to escort him throughout the whole process, then Gu Xun and the others would be relieved, and they would just go through the formalities and be done with it.
However, Gu Xun's original plan came to nothing, and his trip was in vain.
It would be okay if Ying Zheng didn't react too much, but you can also relax for a while. As long as the forces that target Qi Wangjian don't kill him, they won't launch an assassination 'again' in a short period of time.<

………………
In Xianyang City, Concubine Yan replaced Gu Xun in the court performance as usual and returned to the Imperial Prefect's Mansion along her usual route.
But today, it’s different from usual.
Concubine Yan was keenly aware that many eyes were watching her.
There were people who were secretly watching her in the past two days, but according to what Gu Xun told her before, this is normal. Many people pay attention to his movements, and there are a few tails following him almost all the time.
As long as he doesn't cross the line...that is, try to peek into Gu Xun's mansion, then he won't care.
Concubine Yan has always dealt with it this way, but today's peeping eyes were mixed with malice.
Although it is very superficial, for Concubine Yan who is about to break through the fifth level of soul-changing method in Yin and Yang, she can easily perceive people's emotions, and there is no way to hide these malicious intentions - but... maybe her perception is not good enough.
It’s so easy to use, but it may fail at critical moments.
Ahem... Anyway, at least not today.
After noticing the change, Concubine Yan did not show anything wrong and continued to follow her path, but the route quietly changed.
Gu Xun had given instructions on how to deal with these situations before she left - although with her wisdom, she knew what she should do without Gu Xun's nagging nonsense.
Now, she just needs to follow the rules.
In other words, waiting to kill is not difficult for her, but it is a bit troublesome.
She had to make sure that others would not see that it was not Gu Xun who did the trick, but a disguised stand-in.
Fortunately, Gu Xun's favorite thing to do is to set fires. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for Concubine Yan to pretend to be him.
According to the planned route, Yan Fei - Gu Xun Skin Limited Edition, changed the route to the direction of Tianhe Medical Center.
The medical center is further away from Zhangtai Palace, where the imperial meeting is located, than the Imperial Master's Mansion, and you can pass by some... small roads with few people. This kind of place is the most suitable for doing things.
Sure enough, when Concubine Yan reached a suitable remote road, the malicious intentions hidden in the dark were no longer hidden, and all their fangs were exposed.
There were eight people in front and behind, blocking all of Yan Fei’s way out and retreat.
Concubine Yan glanced over and immediately recognized the people who had taken action - the national martyrs of the Chu State and the Wei soldiers of the Wei State.
Both of them are very recognizable. Most of the soldiers in Wei Dynasty practice the body-refining method of the Armored Sect. They have strong muscles and strong bodies. As for the soldiers who died in the national war, let alone them. As the deputy head of the Yin-Yang family,
She still knows this group very well.
Of course, she has no intention of holding back.
This group of people are all true warriors. The murderous intent in their eyes is not very strong, but the desire to die is palpable.
It's normal. They came to assassinate Gu Xun, but they didn't just come to die. They don't think they can succeed, do they?
Without any nonsense, the battle began.
The soldiers who died in the national war clenched the cold swords in their hands, while the soldiers of Wei were wielding heavy weapons such as axes and axes, or with bare hands, they all attacked Concubine Yan - Guxun Skin Limited Edition.
There are no tactical arrangements, and no arrangements are needed, just rush and it's done.
They are the chess pieces used to test Gu Xun. As long as the other party takes action, their goal will be achieved.
Concubine Yan looked at these people who were seeking death indifferently. She raised her palms lightly, and the red fire of true energy rose up and ignited, and then she also faced these "rabble" who wanted to die.
At the same time, in Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng changed out of his court clothes, put on his regular clothes, and returned to his study to start reviewing and correcting the memorial.
Zhao Gao walked in with small steps at this time, bent down and bowed, "Your Majesty."
"Say!" Ying Zheng spat out a word without raising his head.
Zhao Gao straightened his back, walked up to Ying Zheng with his hands behind his hands and his head lowered, and said, "The people in the net have sent news, and it seems that someone has attracted the attention of the 'National Master'."
Gu found a substitute to pretend to be himself and escaped from Xianyang. Naturally, he did not hide it from Ying Zheng - mainly because Zhang Han was an insider, so it was unrealistic to hide it from Ying Zheng. However, Ying Zheng did not tell anyone about this matter. Zhao Gao
No exception.
Although Zhao Gao doesn't know the truth, he is an old bastard who knows a lot about all kinds of tricks, so he naturally has some guesses in his mind.
"Oh?" When Ying Zheng heard the news, he still immersed himself in government affairs. He snorted and replied, "Is this the case?"
"It seems that you don't need to worry about the safety of the imperial master."
Zhao Gao quickly smiled and said, "Your Majesty is wise."
Then he continued, "It's not just the Imperial Master who has trouble, there seems to be some people who are not very honest now."
"The net has caught some tails, but there is no conclusion yet, and we don't know their specific purpose."
Luo Wang now also holds part of the duties of the Jinyiwei of later generations, supervising all officials, but his power is not that great. To be precise, he has no power. He is a purely temporary worker. If there is anything, he can only report it to Zhao Gao, who will then report to Ying Zheng.
.
As for how to deal with it, it's just Ying Zheng's business.
When Ying Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but nodded, "This is a good opportunity."
"You don't need to tell me what to do, right?"
"Keep an eye on it, don't miss anything."
"Yes!" Zhao Gao quickly bowed and accepted the order.
It doesn’t matter what the purpose of these people is. Anyway, they will soon reveal their purpose. The important thing now is to identify who they are.
As Ying Zheng said, this is a good opportunity to catch a lot of 'worms', which can also be regarded as a by-product of the Guxun Project.
After getting an errand, Zhao Gao saw that Ying Zheng stopped talking and stopped disturbing him, so he excused himself and left.
He's going to run his errands.
? ?I didn’t expect it, but I updated it anyway.
? Although the screen is broken, fortunately it still displays the image, but it is too dark to see clearly, so I reluctantly coded it.
? My eyes hurt...
? The main reason is that the new monitor will arrive in three days. How can I take such a long leave? Let’s make do with it first...
