"Sigh!"

Wang Wang Jian let out a sigh!

At this moment, there were many things he regretted.

Regretting going to see the First Emperor was one thing!

Regretting giving the First Emperor the idea to send assassins to capture Ying Su was another!

He even regretted getting involved in this matter at all!

Or rather, he shouldn't have had any contact with Ying Su in the first place!

But... looking back on it all, he seemed to have been completely passive!

When Ying Su first came to the Wang residence, he had feigned illness to avoid him!

Afterward, no matter how he inquired, he always feigned illness.

Even when the First Emperor summoned him later, he had no choice!

When the First Emperor summons, can one refuse to see him?

Everything, everything was extremely passive; it was simply not up to him!

"Sigh!"

"What is to be done!"

Wang Wang Jian shook his head and sighed again and again!

And just as he was worrying, the butler suddenly ran over in a hurry: "Master, the New Emperor... the New Emperor has arrived!"

"What?"

"The New Emperor?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Wang Jian jumped, nearly falling to the ground.

At that moment, his brows were tightly locked; he had no idea how to respond!

Indeed!

How to respond!

He had attacked Xianyang Palace, and now the man had come right after him.

Wasn't it obvious he was here for revenge?

"Master! Why don't I arrange for people to ambush him in the garden? If he steps foot inside, I will capture him immediately!"

The butler suggested.

Upon hearing this, Wang Wang Jian slapped the butler across the face:

"How dare you!"

The butler cried: "But what if he wants to destroy our Wang family!"

"Hoo..."

Wang Wang Jian took a deep breath, and finally, gulped down a mouthful of tea!

"When soldiers come, block them; when water comes, cover it with earth!"

After saying this!

He downed another cup of strong tea!

At the main gate of the Great Qin Grand General's residence!

In the blink of an eye, Ying Su arrived!

And as soon as he entered the door, Wang Wang Jian led his entire family to bow to Ying Su: "Welcome, Your Majesty the Emperor!"

"Oh! Old General, you've recovered from your illness!"

Ying Su smiled and walked toward Wang Wang Jian immediately, reaching out to support him!

Wang Wang Jian was terrified and quickly bowed: "Thanks to Your Majesty's concern, the illness has already improved much!"

Ying Su nodded and said: "Good, good, but Old General must be careful. Now that you've just recovered, don't go walking around casually, lest the old illness returns!"

As he spoke, he took Wang Wang Jian's hand and walked toward the center of the courtyard!

Wang Wang Jian was breaking out in a cold sweat!

He bowed to Ying Su: "Your subject! I will strictly follow your decree!"

Ying Su nodded: "Fine, I'm here to find Wang Lan. Is she here?"

"Yes!"

"Lan'er, come quickly and meet His Majesty the Emperor!"

Wang Wang Jian said, quickly calling Wang Lan out!

Then, the two entered the small garden as usual!

As for what they were going to do, no one else knew!

And Wang Wang Jian, watching their retreating backs, kept wiping the cold sweat from his forehead!

He kept trying to guess Ying Su's intentions, but... he couldn't figure it out!

Say he came to hold him accountable?

But... this posture didn't look like it at all!

If he really came to hold him accountable, he shouldn't have come alone this time!

That's right, he came completely alone, not even bringing Li Li Cunxiao!

Not only did he not bring Li Li Cunxiao, he didn't even bring the Garrison Army or Yu Yu Huatian!

He didn't even bring the eunuch Chongxin, who was often by his side!

He came completely and utterly alone!

Could it be... an ambush in the dark?

Wang Wang Jian had this suspicion, but... he didn't dare to send anyone to investigate.

What if he really did bring people?

If he sent someone to investigate and they were discovered, and it was reported to Ying Su, what would Ying Su think?

Oh!

I, Ying Su, came without people, and you, Wang Wang Jian, can do whatever you want, is that it?

Then...

Cold sweat poured down Wang Wang Jian's head!

Then he didn't come to hold him accountable?

Wang Wang Jian guessed!

But... it didn't feel like that either!

He had even attacked Xianyang Palace, and the man wouldn't hold him accountable? How could that be?

Or perhaps... he didn't know at all that he had attacked Xianyang Palace?

How could that be!

Does he really think Ying Su is blind, an incompetent, muddled emperor!

This little brat is smart, sharp as a monkey; what could be hidden from him!

Moreover, the fact that he attacked Xianyang Palace wasn't some top secret; the fifteen thousand troops outside Xianyang City all knew.

Even the Garrison Army under his command knew.

How could he not know about this!

Knowing it, and still not coming to hold him accountable.

What exactly does this mean!

Wang Wang Jian's scalp went numb.

The more he pondered, the more terrified he became!

Inside the small garden!

No matter how terrified Wang Wang Jian was.

At this moment, Wang Lan was leaning in Ying Su's arms!

"Strange, why isn't my grandfather feigning illness today?"

Wang Lan looked at Ying Su with a puzzled face!

Ying Su laughed: "So your grandfather has been feigning illness all along!"

"Why haven't you ever told me!"

Wang Lan rolled her eyes: "It's as if you wouldn't know if I didn't tell you!"

Ying Su laughed: "I know that I know, but whether you tell me or not, that's your business!"

Wang Lan pouted:

"I just won't say it. That's my grandfather, my most beloved grandfather. If I told you he was feigning illness, wouldn't he be committing the crime of deceiving the Emperor?"

"When the time comes, what if you, you bad guy, use the crime of deceiving the Emperor to kill my grandfather?"

Ying Su laughed: "Then if I really used this crime of deceiving the Emperor to kill your grandfather, what would you do?"

"Ah?"

Wang Lan was stunned!

Ying Su laughed out loud: "Little girl, I'm just teasing you!"

Wang Lan punched Ying Su in the chest: "Bad guy, you are not allowed to tease me with such things in the future!"

"Otherwise... I'll fight you to the death!"

After she finished speaking, she pounced on Ying Su and bit his ear!

Then... the two entered that small cave again!

Before they knew it, the sun had set behind the mountains!

Ying Su finally came out of that small garden!

And when Ying Su came out again.

Wang Wang Jian was already waiting at the garden gate, bowing!

"Old General, you've just recovered from a serious illness, don't stand, go back to the room and sit!"

Ying Su said as he supported him and brought him back to the room!

Once seated, Wang Wang Jian bowed to Ying Su: "Your Majesty the Emperor, this subject has an uninvited request!"

"Oh?"

Ying Su laughed and looked at Wang Wang Jian: "Speak!"

.....0 .......

Wang Wang Jian said: "This subject wants to propose marriage to the First Emperor, to marry Wang Lan to the New Emperor!"

"Now, this subject's intention is very strong, but I don't know if the New Emperor can fancy Lan'er!"

He said, bowing to Ying Su with utmost respect!

Ying Su stared at him for a long time: "Is that all?"

Wang Wang Jian swallowed hard and said nothing!

Ying Su didn't speak either!

After a long time, Wang Wang Jian couldn't withstand the pressure and bowed to Ying Su:

"To eat the monarch's salary, to be loyal to the monarch's affairs!"

"The First Emperor has great kindness toward this subject!"

"Without the First Emperor, there would be no Wang Wang Jian!"

Ying Su's eyes narrowed!

Wang Wang Jian trembled again!

But he still bowed fiercely to Ying Su:

"This subject has only been loyal to Great Qin in this life, only loyal to Your Majesty the Emperor!"

Ying Su's eyes narrowed again!

Wang Wang Jian cried and knelt before Ying Su with a thud: "The First Emperor is old; this world will sooner or later be the New Emperor's!"

When he said this, Ying Su smiled.

Then, he helped Wang Wang Jian up and said: "Old General, you are also old, so take good care of your health! If you don't have to go out, try not to go out!"

After he finished speaking, he turned and left!

Wang Wang Jian was numb, and he kowtowed fiercely to Ying Su:

"Your Majesty the Emperor, this subject... this subject is willing to be loyal to Your Majesty the Emperor!"

"If I have any two-hearted thoughts, may heaven strike me with five thunders, and may the Wang family never be able to turn over for generations!"

He shouted, kowtowing to Ying Su until he bled!

Ying Su quickly helped Wang Wang Jian up: "Old General, get up quickly, how can this junior bear such a great gift!"

He said, and began to pat the dust off Wang Wang Jian's knees!

Wang Wang Jian said: "But no matter what, the matter of marrying Wang Lan to the Emperor needs the permission of the First Emperor!"

"I will speak to the First Emperor about this matter!"

Ying Su nodded: "As it should be, as it should be!"

"No matter what, he is also my father, and on the day Lan'er and I get married, he will have to preside over our wedding!"

"And Lan'er and I will have to toast you two elders!"

Ying Su said, and happily helped Wang Wang Jian to the couch to sit down!

Wang Wang Jian took a deep breath. At this moment, he only felt dizzy and could only bow to Ying Su with utmost respect:

"This subject will certainly not fail the mission!"

Ying Su said: "That's fine, Old General, just rest. It's getting late, I'll go back to the palace. I didn't bring anyone with me today, and it's late, I'm afraid it's not safe!"

Wang Wang Jian was stunned and quickly bowed to Ying Su: "Although this old subject is old, I still have some strength, and I am willing to personally escort the Emperor back to the palace!"

Ying Su laughed: "If that can be done, that would be great!"

After he finished speaking, he took Wang Wang Jian out of the Wang residence.

But... walking on the road, Wang Wang Jian keenly noticed that this was not the direction to Xianyang Palace!

But... to the suburbs!

"Emper..."

Wang Wang Jian opened his mouth subconsciously, wanting to remind him!

But the words reached his lips, and he didn't speak. Ying Su had his reasons for not taking him to Xianyang Palace.

As for where he was taking him, it was all up to Ying Su!

At this moment, he didn't speak and just followed behind Ying Su!

In the blink of an eye, the two arrived at the outskirts of Xianyang City!

And, they arrived at a small mountain!

And arriving here, Wang Wang Jian was stunned!

Because... he discovered that this place was actually a military camp!

And here, densely packed, there were camps everywhere!

There were soldiers everywhere!

At this moment, they were in the midst of intense training!

And the training items were actually horse warfare and encirclement!

The weapons in the soldiers' hands were not long spears, but... a type of long blade with a long handle!

This is... a horse-chopping saber?

081, Ying Su meets Ying Zheng! The New Emperor meets the First Emperor!

"This... this..."

The scene before his eyes directly stunned Wang Wang Jian!

At this instant, he immediately thought of the orders Ying Su had issued in the court before!

Stop the construction of the Great Wall, stop the construction of the Epang Palace.

Destroy the Xiongnu!

Farmland tax!

Now, the Great Wall construction had stopped, the Epang Palace construction had stopped, and things like the farmland tax had all been done.

Now, only destroying the Xiongnu remained.

Originally, Wang Wang Jian thought Ying Su was just talking!

But now it seems, Ying Su... he really intends to destroy the Xiongnu!

Otherwise, why would he train these grassland combat tactics?
