Chapter 806: Many Speculations, Absolute Trust

~4 min read 786 words

"That works too."

Ying Ying Zi Ye agreed casually.

He had originally wanted the border-guarding army to set up camp here.

After all, if they stayed at the Lantian Camp, he was afraid that friction might arise between the two sides.

But now that Zhang Jiao had said so, letting them stay there was fine.

Even if there were some disputes, it didn't matter; it could be considered a friendly match between the two sides.

And the border-guarding army shouldn't be staying here for too long.

Ying Ying Zi Ye gave the order, and the border-guarding army marched toward the Lantian Camp in a grand manner.

After the border-guarding army entered the Lantian Camp...

Two fast horses rushed over from the direction of Xianyang City.

One was from the Commandant's army, who had just gone to deliver the letter, and the other was actually a eunuch.

A eunuch appearing here didn't seem normal at all.

It looked like he was probably there to convey an oral edict from His Majesty Qin Shi Huang.

The eunuch rushed into the Lantian Camp.

He saw a group of deputy generals walking inside.

The eunuch didn't even dismount and shouted directly.

"His Majesty's oral edict."

"Commander Zhang Jiao is to enter the palace immediately to see His Majesty."

"Do not delay; you must go immediately, right now!"

After the eunuch finished speaking, he wanted to leave; he had another task.

That was to see who had brought the soldiers and have that person go along.

But the next moment, he stopped.

He wasn't stupid; he would ask them first.

Otherwise, if he went to see whoever had brought the soldiers, he might lose his life later.

"By the way, who brought the troops over?"

"His Majesty wants that person to enter the palace as well."

Zhang Jiao and the others finally reacted.

They hadn't expected His Majesty to send a eunuch to convey an oral edict.

"That... messenger, you don't need to go over there to deliver the message."

"The people from over there are already at the Lantian Camp."

"It is indeed the border-guarding army, and the leader is Deputy General Han Xin."

Zhang Jiao smiled bitterly; if he had known this, there would have been no need to disturb His Majesty.

Now His Majesty had even sent an oral edict.

"Oh? They are already at the Lantian Camp?"

"Then have him hurry and enter the palace!"

"Doesn't he know he can't privately bring troops to Xianyang?"

"Could it be that he brought them on purpose?"

"Is he trying to rebel?"

The eunuch casually threw out a few accusations.

Upon learning that the army had arrived at the Lantian Camp...

The eunuch felt relieved.

At least he didn't have to take any more risks.

As long as he brought these two people back, his mission would be accomplished.

"They don't need to go back with you; you go back first."

A voice rang out.

When the eunuch heard this, he was immediately furious.

He was a messenger now; who dared to be presumptuous in front of him?

How dare someone say such a thing to him.

"Who is speaking? How dare..."

Before the word "presumptuous" could be uttered, the eunuch's voice stopped abruptly.

Because he saw a familiar person—Crown Prince Ying Ying Zi Ye!

The eunuch was so scared that he fell off his horse.

Fortunately, he hadn't shouted the word "presumptuous."

Otherwise, he wouldn't know how to end it.

"Small... the small one pays respects to the Crown Prince."

"I didn't know the Prince was here; I deserve to die."

The eunuch fell to the ground and knelt immediately.

He was afraid of offending the Crown Prince.

"No need for formalities, get up."

Ying Ying Zi Ye waved his hand indifferently.

He had been walking at the very front just now.

Hearing movement behind him, everyone turned around, and he naturally fell to the back.

The eunuch only saw him when he walked out.

Otherwise, this eunuch probably wouldn't have recited any oral edict.

Seeing the Crown Prince here, he could just go back and report.

"Understood, the small one will go back and report now."

The eunuch was excited inside.

He had offended the Prince, but he hadn't expected the Prince not to punish him.

This made him somewhat secretly happy.

So he hurriedly climbed onto his horse and went straight back to Xianyang City to report.

With the Crown Prince here, it would be easy for him to report back.

Watching the eunuch's hurried back, the others smiled.

Fortunately, the Prince was here, otherwise, they would have been in trouble.

A group of people entered the tent. After exchanging some words inside... ===== CHAPTER 808 =====
