~6 min read 1,005 words

Donghuang Taiyi stood in place, and after a moment of silence, his figure flashed leisurely and quickly disappeared.

At Zhao Mingqu's residence.

After making preparations for the outing.

Zhao Mingqu boarded the carriage and, escorted by a large number of guards, left the Prince's Mansion with a flamboyant air.

His outing appeared very civilian-like, and the carriage was also very low-key.

Except for the flag hanging on the carriage, which proved his identity.

Everything else appeared very ordinary.

He only brought the necessary guards to ensure safety, and everything else was kept simple.

It didn't look like an imperial Prince with a high position and great power who dominated the imperial court at all.

"Prince Zhao is going to the morning court!"

"Prince Zhao is still so simple; he doesn't have any airs of a Prince..."

"That's right, Prince Zhao is a very good person; he is good to the commoners and good to the servants..."

"Most importantly, Prince Zhao is loyal to Great Qin; in his early years, he even fought in all directions and made great military achievements..."

"..."

Many commoners on the streets of Xianyang City saw Zhao Mingqu's carriage and horses appear and stepped aside one after another.

Looking at Prince Zhao Mingqu's carriage and horses, many commoners revealed expressions of respect and admiration in their eyes.

It seemed that they had a very good impression of this Prince.

Inside the carriage.

Zhao Mingqu listened to the discussions of the commoners that came from outside the carriage from time to time.

Listening to the commoners' cheers for him, a look of pride appeared on his face.

"My reputation has already reached a very high level..."

Zhao Mingqu was very satisfied with the image of a Prince who was close to the people and loyal to the Emperor that he had created.

In the imperial court, he behaved respectfully toward Ying Zheng.

He performed the etiquette between ruler and subject very well, never had any overstepping behavior, and was dutiful.

Usually, he was quite good to his servants and the commoners.

Wherever a disaster occurred, he would pay out of his own pocket to provide disaster relief.

Of course,

Zhao Mingqu would not be stupid enough to provide disaster relief in his own name.

Instead, he would first ask the imperial court for instructions and provide disaster relief and aid to the disaster victims in the name of the imperial court.

Letting the imperial court and His Majesty the Emperor gain a good reputation.

However, doing this kind of thing too much would still lead to leaks, and some people would know what he was doing...

After the commoners knew what he had done, they loved him even more.

Therefore,

his reputation was also very high, and he was loved by countless commoners.

He was also respected by many court officials, and even Ying Zheng had commended him many times.

Of course,

Ying Zheng doing this,

what he was thinking in his heart,

not many people could guess.

Even Zhao Mingqu couldn't, but because he asked Ying Zheng for instructions every time he did these things, and then did them in the name of Ying Zheng and the imperial court.

There were no problems, and he didn't have to worry about the dangerous and terrifying label of winning over the hearts of the people being pinned on him.

Thinking about various things in his heart, thinking that the situation was becoming more and more favorable to him.

Thinking that Ying Zheng did not have long to live, Zhao Mingqu's mood was very excited.

This kind of excitement would only be revealed when he was in private.

Zhao Mingqu's carriage was driving slowly on the street.

And at this time,

in a restaurant,

Ying Mo was sitting by the window,

wearing a mask, his gaze fixed on the carriage driving slowly below.

His gaze,

instantly locked onto,

a figure walking slowly forward step by step beside the carriage.

The moment he saw that figure, the light deep in Ying Mo's eyes suddenly became sharp.

"Found you!"

A terrifying killing intent suddenly erupted from Ying Mo's body, and his eyes suddenly became as cold as thousand-year black ice.

A hoarse and cold voice slowly sounded from beneath the mask.

The terrifying killing intent, like a tangible aura, instantly permeated the surroundings.

At this time,

Zhao Mingqu inside the carriage, and Feng Chen outside the carriage.

Suddenly,

felt a terrifying aura enveloping them.

"What's going on?!"

Zhao Mingqu suddenly felt goosebumps all over his body.

It was like being pricked by a needle, stinging, and at the same time, there was a cold aura emerging from his bone marrow, making him shiver uncontrollably.

He seemed to feel that in a certain direction, something was staring at him.

Subconsciously, Zhao Mingqu lifted the curtain and looked in the direction from which that feeling came.

At the same time,

Feng Chen also noticed,

that terrifying aura,

and looked in that direction at the same time as Zhao Mingqu.

Instantly,

both of them saw,

on the restaurant not far away,

a person wearing a mask was staring at them.

Zhao Mingqu's gaze met the two cold stars beneath the mask.

"Boom!!!"

The moment they met, Zhao Mingqu instantly felt a roar in his mind, and his pupils contracted violently.

A terrifying killing intent, surging and surging like a tidal wave, instantly crushed toward him.

"This..."

Zhao Mingqu's face instantly turned pale, and his pupils were full of horror: "Ghost?! These eyes..."

Instantly,

Zhao Mingqu guessed that this person wearing a ghost mask should be the elusive Ghost.

At this moment,

he felt boundless killing intent from the Ghost's eyes!

This kind of killing intent seemed to have condensed into substance, making him feel his eyes sting just by meeting his gaze for an instant.

In the blink of an eye, the Prince recovered from the shock, and his face changed again and again.

Subsequently,

he quickly let down the curtain, and then his voice was low and hoarse.
