Chapter 44: Counterattack, reciprocity!
"My Lord, these assassins acted extremely decisively. After realizing that they had no chance of survival, they chose to commit suicide."
In the palace of King Qin.
Lin Xuan's brows furrowed slightly as he listened to Qinglong's report.
Because this is very unusual!
"Where is the body?"
"There is one outside."
Qinglong responded.
Swish!
Lin Xuan stood up immediately.
"Go and see."
Just as the two of them left the bedroom.
Then he saw Zhang Han coming towards him to report the latest developments.
Before he could speak.
Lin Xuan waved at him, indicating that they should talk later.
Zhang Han was puzzled, but still followed behind to see what the Marquis was going to do.
Soon.
Two Jinyiwei dragged a corpse to Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan looked at the black corpse in front of him, and a strange fluctuation flashed in his pupils.
next moment.
He raised his hand and waved.
"Bang" sound.
The black-clad assassin's upper body clothes were shattered by a powerful force, leaving him naked.
Swish!
time.
On the shoulder of the corpse, a black spider pattern suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.
When Zhang Han saw this scene, his face changed instantly.
Because he knew what this black pattern represented!
"People from Luowang!?"
he exclaimed.
Lin Xuan glanced and nodded slowly.
At the same time, a meaningful look appeared on his face.
"That's not right, my lord!"
"Hasn't Luowang been destroyed by you?"
"Zhao Gao is already dead!"
Zhang Han hurriedly asked Lin Xuan.
He really couldn't understand what happened tonight.
A killer organization that has been destroyed.
Why is it appearing again now?
Facing Zhang Han's doubts, Lin Xuan only said in a deep voice: "The net of heaven and earth is impenetrable."
"Remember, Luowang has never been an organization of one person."
Swish!
This sentence was like an epiphany.
Zhang Han understood instantly.
Then, Lin Xuan asked him if he had anything to report?
Zhang Han shook his head and pointed at the corpse on the ground.
Indicate what I want to report, My Lord, you already know it.
Seeing this, Lin Xuan looked up at the dark and deep night sky.
"Tonight is just the beginning."
"During the days when His Majesty has not yet woken up."
"None of you should take this lightly."
"Yes!"
The two responded in unison.
Then he retreated.
At the gate of Xianyang city.
Several figures were walking here stealthily.
"Young Master, do we really have to believe him?"
Ji Bu asked Xiang Shaoyu who was beside him.
His eyes were looking towards the figure in front.
There was a hint of hesitation in Xiang Shaoyu's eyes.
But after a while.
He still gritted his teeth.
"Just trust him for now."
"If the situation is not right, run away immediately!"
Upon hearing this, Ji Bu had no choice but to nod and agree.
And the figure in front.
It was Zhongli Mei.
As the time goes.
Everyone was led by Zhongli Mei.
Successfully entered the city.
But also at this time.
Zhongli Mei turned around and looked at the people behind him.
"That's all I can do."
"What happens next has nothing to do with me."
Xiang Shaoyu stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.
"That's enough!"
But then.
He asked again: "You really don't want to join us?"
Upon hearing this, Zhongli Mei hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head.
"I am the commander of the Qin State. If you hadn't helped me in Dongjun, I would definitely not have brought you into Xianyang."
"Although I don't know exactly what you are going to do, I hope you can get out alive."
Zhongli Mei spoke up.
"In that case."
"Then let's say goodbye here."
Long Ju bowed and clasped his hands. Zhongli Mei also clasped his hands in return.
then.
Xiang Shaoyu and his companions turned around and left.
Soon it disappeared into the night.
Zhongli Mei stood there with a dazed look in his eyes.
He also didn't know whether doing so was against the empire.
But those people did help him.
I owe them a favor.
finally.
Zhongli Mei shook his head.
Since you are guilty, just admit it.
next moment.
He also left.
But the direction he was heading was the imperial palace.
The next day.
In the morning.
The officials were whispering and discussing the night attack on the palace last night.
"Who on earth is so bold as to attack the imperial palace?"
"I don't know. I slept so deeply last night that I only heard about it when I woke up in the morning!"
"Fortunately, the palace was heavily guarded and had sufficient troops. It was said that in less than an hour, all the assassins were captured!"
"Well, let's see what the Marquis has to say later!"
Followed by.
Lin Xuan walked out from the back of the hall.
The scene suddenly became quiet.
"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you!"
Everyone bowed and saluted Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan waved his hand and said casually: "Do you know what happened last night?"
Li Si, the prime minister, hurried out.
"Your Majesty, we have heard something else."
"Yeah." Lin Xuan nodded.
"The recent period is the critical time for Your Majesty to change his bones and prolong his life."
"This bunch of villains will definitely not let your majesty live forever!"
"You must also strengthen the palace's security to prevent any accidents from happening!"
As Lin Xuan spoke.
The ministers responded in unison: "Yes!"
But this time.
Wang Ben suddenly asked, "My Lord, who was the one who attacked the palace last night?"
Ever since the palace was taken control by Lin Xuan.
Even for a man like him, the Marquis of Tongwu, it was difficult to know everything about the imperial palace.
Suddenly, the other officials also showed confusion and curiosity.
I want to know who attacked the palace last night!
After hearing this, Lin Xuan pondered for a moment and slowly uttered two words: "Net."
Swish!
As these two words came out.
The expressions of the ministers below changed immediately.
Some people who had dealt with Zhao Gao before were frightened to death.
After all, we all know it.
Zhao Gao, the former Minister of Chariots, was the leader of Luowang.
But now Zhao Gao is dead.
But the snare is still there.
If Lin Xuan were to start investigating from the inside.
The first people to be checked are these people!
"My Lord, the net has already..."
Li Si was also full of doubts.
Lin Xuan shook his head.
"The new leader of Luowang has appeared."
"And I already know who it is."
Swish!
time.
Everyone, look at me, and I'll look at you.
They are all suspicious of each other.
But in the end Lin Xuan did not say who it was.
All he wanted was to let them guess for themselves.
At the same time it can also alert them.
then.
Lin Xuan slowly raised his eyes.
"Since the other party gave us a surprise."
"As the host, we naturally have to give them one back."
then.
Lin Xuan looked at Meng Tian and Wang Li.
Although I cannot mobilize my Great Snow Dragon Riders, don't forget them.
The Qin Dynasty still has four ace divisions!
Meng Tian’s golden fire cavalry and Wang Li’s battle-hardened armored soldiers are two of them!
"Meng Tian, Wang Li!"
"The general is here!"
The two of them immediately took a step forward.
"I order the two of you to lead your subordinates and inspect the entire Xianyang immediately!"
"If you find any suspicious person, arrest him immediately!"
"If the other party resists, kill him on the spot!"
