Chapter 66

hearing this news, could not help but gulp.

Looking down at Ying Mo sitting in the wheelchair, deep in her eyes, a look of deep horror emerged.

Slashing a Grandmaster with one sword!

This was simply too strong!

To what level had her Young Master’s strength reached?

Lu Li’s heart was surging with huge waves, and at the same time, she was constantly guessing which realm her Young Master’s strength was at...

And at this time,

Ying Mo, sitting in the wheelchair,

hearing the report from the Heavenly Secret Pavilion person that Feng Chen was dead beyond a doubt,

a gloomy and icy light flashed in his eyes.

In his mind,

the face of the Prince sitting in the carriage just now

appeared.

He could clearly remember the look of horror and fear in the eyes of that Prince, Zhao Mingqu, just now.

Judging from this situation, this Prince must have participated in the plot to harm the Annan Army and him five years ago!

He was undoubtedly the murderer!

It was just that,

he still didn’t know,

whether he was the biggest mastermind behind the scenes, the only murderer...

“Retreat.”

Glancing at Feng Chen’s corpse split in two on the ground, Ying Mo said leisurely to Lu Li.

“Yes!”

Upon hearing Ying Mo’s voice, Lu Li instantly came to her senses and nodded heavily.

Subsequently,

she accompanied Ying Mo’s wheelchair and began to turn around.

The front was bloody, so they certainly couldn’t continue forward; they could only turn around and take another road.

Lu Li pushed Ying Mo out of the alley.

The moment she walked out of the alley, Ying Mo’s gaze glanced in the direction of Zhao Mingqu’s carriage before.

Thinking of Zhao Mingqu’s appearance just now, a gloomy smile appeared on Ying Mo’s face beneath the mask.

“Prince...”

Looking in that direction, the killing intent in Ying Mo’s eyes became even richer and colder: “The next one, will be you...”

Creak creak—

Lu Li pushed the wheelchair and blended into the crowd, then slowly disappeared from everyone’s sight.

The commotion Ying Mo caused was great, alarming many people.

Soon,

many commoners

discovered the situation in the alley and saw the dismembered Feng Chen.

Instantly,

countless commoners exclaimed, all frightened by the bloody scene before them!

“What is the situation?”

“Who is this person? Why was he killed?”

“Could it be that it’s another Xiongnu spy who ran into Xianyang City to cause trouble and harm the commoners of Xianyang City?”

“...”

The commoners looked at the situation before them, discussing it, and some commoners even quickly reported it to the officials.

And just then,

“Swish swish swish—”

In a dark corner, several figures suddenly appeared.

These people,

were all shrouded in black robes, and an icy aura radiated from their bodies.

They had disguised themselves well, revealing only a pair of eyes.

At this moment, these few people who suddenly appeared stared at Feng Chen’s corpse, their eyes full of horror.

“We were too late...”

One of the men in black suddenly spoke, gritting his teeth: “The Prince’s subordinate has been killed!”

“This Ghost’s strength is a bit terrifying; he solved a Grandmaster-level expert so quickly?”

“What level has this Ghost’s strength reached?”

“This is troublesome now; this Ghost is probably not easy to deal with!”

“Damn it, it seems the Prince has already been exposed, truly damn it!”

“Go back and report quickly!”

“...”

The men in black in the dark discussed it, and after carefully observing the situation, these people quickly flashed away.

Killing one Feng Chen.

Ying Mo’s killing intent

did not dissipate completely because of this, but instead became even gloomier.

Because,

one Feng Chen,

in his view, was just a small shrimp.

His most important role was to allow him to confirm the Prince’s specific situation.

From the current point of view, it could basically be confirmed that the Prince must be inseparable from the plot to harm the Annan Army five years ago...

After a series of counter-reconnaissance methods to shake off or kill the tails behind him,

Lu Li and Ying Mo returned to the residence in Xianyang City.

As soon as he returned to the residence, the people from the Heavenly Secret Pavilion rushed before him.

“Reporting to Young Master, the intelligence on the Prince, Zhao Mingqu, has been investigated clearly!”

A person from the Heavenly Secret Pavilion came before Ying Mo and immediately reported to him: “Prince Zhao Mingqu, because of his past military achievements, was deeply appreciated and trusted by Ying Zheng; five years ago, he was granted a large fief in the northern frontier of Great Qin...”

Ying Mo nodded slightly; he knew a little about Zhao Mingqu’s affairs five years ago.

Just as he was pondering, the Heavenly Secret Pavilion person continued to report:

“However, even after obtaining the fief, in the past five years, Zhao Mingqu has not been to the fief once; instead, he has repeatedly expressed to Ying Zheng that he wants to be an idle Prince, staying in Xianyang City and not managing the fief...”

“However, all of this is just on the surface; in private, Zhao Mingqu, through various means, is constantly accumulating power within the fief...”

“Nowadays, within Zhao Mingqu’s fief, the troops are strong and the horses are sturdy, and a huge force is hidden!”

“...”

The Heavenly Secret Pavilion person

reported all the detailed intelligence information they had investigated to Ying Mo one by one.

Listening to the intelligence information reported by the Heavenly Secret Pavilion person, the expression on Ying Mo’s face slowly became gloomy.

In his eyes, a look of doubt emerged.

“This Zhao Mingqu, doing so many small things in private for five years, accumulating power in the fief...”

Ying Mo’s brow furrowed, somewhat incredulous: “Does Ying Zheng not know about these things?”

“With his methods, it shouldn’t be...”

The news reported by the Heavenly Secret Pavilion person.

Made Ying Mo’s heart doubtful.

Zhao Mingqu doing those small things in private.

Accumulating power in the dark,

could this,

escape Ying Zheng’s sharp eyes?

Logically speaking...

It shouldn’t be.

“Reporting to Young Master, this matter cannot be concluded yet...”

The Heavenly Secret Pavilion person replied hurriedly: “According to the intelligence information obtained so far, our preliminary analysis and guess is that Ying Zheng should not know about this matter yet...”

Ying Mo’s brow furrowed even deeper, and the look of doubt in his eyes became even more intense.

Seeing Ying Mo’s doubtful eyes, the Heavenly Secret Pavilion person said again.

“Young Master, we think the reason for this is related to Ying Zheng’s personality...”

The Heavenly Secret Pavilion person analyzed: “Ying Zheng is extremely confident in himself; he believes that he controls everything...”

“Therefore, he does not care about the various behaviors of his subordinates...”

“He firmly believes that as long as he is there, no one in this world would dare to commit treason...”

“So, we think that even if Ying Zheng knew about Zhao Mingqu’s image in private, knew that he was accumulating power in the dark in the fief...”

“He probably wouldn’t care!”

These words from the Heavenly Secret Pavilion person fell into Ying Mo’s ears, making his eyes flash slightly.

Based on his understanding of Ying Zheng, he knew that the Heavenly Secret Pavilion person was right.

Ying Zheng,

was indeed very proud,

and he also had the capital to be proud.

Many things indeed did not enter his eyes; he simply did not take some people seriously.

Therefore,

from the current point of view,

whether Ying Zheng knew about this matter or not,

it seemed, was not a very important matter.

What was important was whether Ying Zheng had the ability and the certainty to control the overall situation now that he knew about this matter.

For a time,

Ying Mo fell into silence.

In his mind, countless thoughts were flashing rapidly, thinking about the current situation.

“Young Master, what should we do now?”

Lu Li thought for a moment and then suddenly asked Ying Mo softly: “Since it has been confirmed that this Prince Zhao Mingqu is related to the events of five years ago...”

“Then should we...”

“Kill him directly?!”

When saying this, a look of stern killing intent flashed deep in Lu Li’s eyes, and killing intent surged on her body.

Anyone who had harmed her Young Master five years ago must be killed without mercy!

“Kill him directly?”

Upon hearing Lu Li’s words, Ying Mo raised an eyebrow, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: “How could it be so cheap for him?”

“Hmm?! Young Master, what do you mean?” Lu Li was somewhat curious.

“I not only want him to die, I also want him to be disgraced!”

Ying Mo was full of murderous intent: “I want to kill him upright and honestly, and I want to announce everything he has done to the world, letting the commoners of the world know...”

“Why he died!”

“Whether he deserved to die!”

Five years ago, tens of thousands of Annan Army soldiers were wiped out due to betrayal.

This matter had always been an indelible pain in Ying Mo’s heart!

Therefore.

Everyone who participated in this matter five years ago must die to atone for their crimes, and they must die clearly...

They were the ones going to atone for their crimes; his actions were just revenge!

Listening to Ying Mo’s words, Lu Li’s heart trembled, and she nodded solemnly, asking: “Then Young Master, what is your plan?”

“Pass down the order immediately, have the Heavenly Secret Pavilion and the Eastern Depot continue to distribute flyers...”

“This time, the content of the flyers should all be changed to propaganda about Zhao Mingqu colluding with the Xiongnu five years ago to harm the Annan Army and harm Young Master Mo!”

“The flyers must spread to every corner of Xianyang City, and even be distributed in other parts of Great Qin outside Xianyang City!”

“And have Cao Zhengchun take people to blockade every road leaving Xianyang City!”

“Do not let Zhao Mingqu and his subordinates have a chance to escape Xianyang City!”

Ying Mo was full of murderous intent, and deep in his eyes, cold light as sharp as a sword flashed as he issued a series of orders one after another.

Having his subordinates go to handle the affairs immediately, preparing to first completely ruin Zhao Mingqu’s reputation.

Exposing everything he had done one by one, letting the people of the world see his true face again.

“Also...”

Ying Mo continued: “Tonight, we will send Zhao Mingqu a big gift!!!”

“Send him a big gift?”

Listening to Ying Mo’s cold tone, Lu Li shivered slightly, but was somewhat curious: “Young Master, what is the big gift you are talking about?”

“You will know tonight.”

Ying Mo held the armrest of the wheelchair, his fingers tapping lightly on the armrest, making a light sound, and a cold sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Lu Li immediately shut her mouth and stopped asking. Instead, she waited for her Young Master to take the initiative to tell her.

“Everyone, start acting.”

Ying Mo gave the order, and the Heavenly Secret Pavilion and Eastern Depot people under him began to act rapidly.

The Eastern Depot people mobilized rapidly, using various means to leave Xianyang City.

And,

guarding outside Xianyang City,

on every passage leaving Xianyang City, preventing Zhao Mingqu and these people from leaving Xianyang City.

At the same time,

Ying Mo, for the first time,

summoned the Embroidered Uniform Guard,

and issued an order to the Embroidered Uniform Guard Commander, Lu Bing.

Upon receiving the order, Lu Bing did not dare to hesitate in the slightest and immediately began to prepare.

At night.

Inside Xianyang City.

Inside Zhao Mingqu’s residence.

At this time,

it was shrouded in a low-pressure aura.

Prince Zhao Mingqu was currently in a secret room in his residence, flying into a rage and roaring loudly!

“Damn it!”
