Chapter 58 Tragic Assassination

"What? My brother has passed away for so long, so why didn't you inform me earlier?" Yu Fulong asked excitedly.

"This is what my father meant. He said that you are a person with an official position and cannot let you abandon public service for personal reasons, so he didn't ask me to tell you before he died." Miss Yu choked up.

"It seems that my brother is still blaming me for leaving without saying goodbye." Yu Fulong said sadly, "Then why are you coming to my place this time?"

"My nephew came to my uncle to find a way out because he couldn't survive in his hometown." Miss Yu's face turned red.

Fusu heard that they couldn't fully explain what they said in front of him, so he stood up and said: "Master Yu, this is my first time coming to Jiujiang City, and I would like to have a good tour. I won't disturb you two uncles and nephews.

Reminiscing about old times.”

Yu Fulong had many things to ask his niece, but he couldn't say too much in front of outsiders. At this time, he heard Fusu's interesting suggestion of going out, and nodded in agreement: "Young Master Zhou, please let me do it in this city."

There are also some places where you can take a look and walk around, but please don’t mess with those Chu soldiers.”

Fusu agreed and went out. In fact, there was no place he wanted to see. He just wanted to give the reunited uncle and nephew some private space. So after going out, he wandered around Jiujiang City casually.

There is now a saying in Xianyang City that Zhao Gao has the idea of ​​deposing the current emperor Hu Hai and establishing a new emperor. It is very clear. How Zhao Gao discussed it with his subordinates and what kind of relationship he had.

A member of the royal family has fallen into Zhao Gao's eyes, and he is planning to select one of these people to be the new emperor of Qin. The news has spread widely in Xianyang City, and has become known in the streets, and even some officials have begun to feel a little bit uncomfortable.

Believed.

The Tingwei Mansion initially sent a large number of manpower to investigate the source of the news, but to no avail. In the end, they had to issue an explicit order not to spread the news, but it was not so easy to stop the people from talking, so

Not long after, everyone in Xianyang City knew about the commotion. The news soon reached Zhao Gao's ears. When he heard the rumor, Zhao Gao was first surprised and then furious. What was surprising was that someone actually knew about his new

What he was thinking, but when he thought about it later, he became furious, because he knew that this was just a strategy thought up by someone with ulterior motives to sow discord between himself and Hu Hai.

"Now that I already know the news, it seems that Hu Hai should know it too. I should attack to find out what he is saying, otherwise he will make trouble for me behind my back. At the same time, I should also dispel his suspicion of me.

Doubts." Thinking of this, Zhao Gao ordered people to prepare a sedan chair for him and went straight to the palace.

When his sedan chair left the gate and headed towards the palace, a person from the crowd rushed to the intersection and whispered to a man squatting on the ground chewing a large cake: "It seems the time has come."

The man nodded hurriedly, then turned and turned into an alley, where Wu Lin and others were waiting. Seeing him coming in, Wu Lin said: "Brothers, it seems that our last mission is about to begin.

"Now whoever doesn't want to do something can put it forward. As long as he doesn't betray us, I will treat him as a brother and will never force him." As his eyes swept over the faces of each individual, he got a satisfactory answer, and none of them were satisfied.

People cherish their own lives. "Since everyone is willing to work for me, Da Qin, and Prince Fu Su, then I announce that this operation will start when Zhao Gao comes out of the palace." Everyone agreed, and then went their separate ways.

Separated.

After Zhao Gao entered the attack, he went straight to Hu Hai's palace. At this time every day, Hu Hai must be in Hu Tianhu with some concubines or maids. Now the palace is basically under Zhao Gao's control, so for Hu Hai, the puppet emperor,

He knew every move.

Zhao Gao came to the door of the palace. There was an unpleasant sound coming from inside. Zhao Gao was used to it. After waiting quietly for a long time, the door opened and five or six beautiful women walked out. Wait.

After they left, Zhao Gaocai shouted outside the door: "My lord Zhao Gao, please see the emperor." He chose this time because he knew that the emperor was in the best mood after having fun with his maids, so now it has the best effect.

Good.

"It's Zhao Gao, come in." Hu Hai's lazily voice came from inside. A look of contempt appeared in Zhao Gao's eyes before he straightened his clothes and walked in.

After Zhao Gao saluted, Hu Hai asked, "What's the purpose of Zhao Qing's visit this time? Is there any good news coming from the front?" As he said that, he yawned loudly again.

"Back to the Emperor, this time the slave is here to plead guilty to the Emperor." Zhao Gao went through the whole show and knelt down again as he spoke.

"Is there anything you can't say while standing? Come on, let's talk about it after you get up." Hu Hai raised his hand and said.

Zhao Gao took advantage of the situation and said, "That's it. Recently, there was a rumor in Xianyang City that the old slave wanted to depose the emperor. He also said that the old slave had been disobedient for a long time, so the old slave came to plead guilty."

"Is this happening? Why don't I know anything about it? Zhao Qing, you take the rumors too seriously. As the saying goes, rumors only stop at the wise. Why should you believe these things like those stupid people?" Hu Hai heard this.

, said with disdain.

"Thank you, Emperor, for your trust. This old slave is so grateful that I burst into tears." Zhao Gao knelt down to thank him again.

Hu Hai stopped his movement and said: "Okay, Zhao Qing doesn't have to worry about these small things. You still have to help me deal with major national affairs. I'm tired too, so you can retreat first." Zhao Gaowei should have retreated.

After getting off, Hu Hai's originally relaxed and carefree eyes changed and became sharp: "Zhao Gao, how do you want to treat me?"

After leaving the palace, Zhao Gao breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the emperor still trusted him as much as ever. Thinking of this, his habitual smile appeared on his face again.

After getting on his sedan chair carried by eight people, Zhao Gao began to think about how to further make all the court officials his own. By now he had left the palace and arrived in the inner city of Xianyang. Zhao Gao's

His residence is not too far from the palace, only three streets apart, but these three streets are the three streets with the most people in the entire Xianyang city. He brings hundreds of guards with him every time he goes out. He knows that he has offended many people, so

Safety measures are also in place.

There were many pedestrians on the East Street, and there were also many stalls. The guards drove away the people who were approaching them, shouting: "Get out of the way, get out of my way! Didn't you see Mr. Zhao returning home?" Pedestrians

One look at this posture and knew it was Zhao Gao. The horse pole moved out of the way, but they did not dare to block Zhao Gao's way.

Just when this group of people was about to pass, a wheelbarrow suddenly appeared on the opposite side with a wooden barrel placed on it. There was a stench inside. "Who is it? Why don't you get out of the way?" One of the guards rushed forward.

, to drive the man and the car away. Unexpectedly, the man pushed the car forward and seemed not to hear his rebuke at all. The guard became angry, pulled out the knife from his waist and walked to the car.

He frowned and said, "How did you transport such filth here? Get out of the way!"

The man looked up at the guard, then at the sedan, as if he realized that he was blocking their way, and hurriedly nodded and bowed to make way. Unexpectedly, the car was not secure to begin with, and with his movement, it actually broke apart.

The wooden bucket fell straight towards the sedan. The expressions of the guards changed drastically. If the contents of the bucket were splashed into the sedan, their heads would probably fall to the ground, so they couldn't care less at this time.

Feeling sick, I rushed forward to hold the barrel.

That man was waiting for this opportunity. When they caught up to help the bucket, he had already pulled out a knife from under the car, rushed up, and shouted, "Today I will get rid of you, this traitor, for my Da Qin!"

As he spoke, he rushed towards the sedan. At this moment, from the frightened people nearby, a dozen people with sharp weapons ran out and rushed towards the sedan.

"There are assassins! There are assassins!" The guards shouted, pulling out weapons from their waists and rushing towards them. At the same time, people behind them also rushed up with spears and other long weapons, and all of a sudden they were on the street.

Because these assassins came well-prepared, the guards were caught off guard at first, but after all, there was a huge difference in numbers. After a while, the guards stabilized the situation. The long knife in the hand of the first assassin who rushed up

Before he was handed over to the sedan, he was already held up by a sword, and then he lost this best opportunity, because he was already surrounded by guards holding various weapons.

Among this group of people, Wu Lin was the most skilled, so when he faced a dozen guards with spears in their hands, he still had time to look at his brothers, and then he saw that one of them had been hacked by the guards.

Dead, then the second, the third...

Seeing the brothers fall down one by one, he knew that the operation was about to end, so he roared and slashed like a mad tiger. Finally, his knife hit the necks of the two guards. "Finally."

My death was not in vain!" Wu Lin thought. At this time, a spear had already pierced into the abdomen of a person while he was slashing him. He tried hard to slash the man back with the knife, but halfway through, he was struck by the sword.

The enemy's spears dug into a hornet's nest. When he looked at his brothers before he died, he saw that they had all fallen to the ground, their bodies covered in blood.

"Prince, Wu Lin has done the last thing for you." Wu Lin finally said in his heart before closing his eyes.

"Sir, all the assassins were killed on the spot." The leader of the guard came to the sedan and said softly.

Zhao Gao's voice came from inside: "Then hang their corpses in the busy city. I want to see who dares to do harm to me." There was a strong murderous intent in the voice. Zhao Gao's heart was now

He was full of questions, but everything had to be discussed after returning home, so he just gave a simple order.
