Chapter 326

~6 min read 1,095 words

In front of Li Yuanba, he still dared not!

But this man also had backbone; he did not bow to Li Yuanba or do anything of the sort, instead letting out a cold snort and leaving directly!

After Li Yuanba entered the city, he ignored everyone, merely glancing at Wang Ben, nodding, and saying, "Not bad!"

With those words finished, he squeezed his horse's belly, and instantly, the Ten Thousand Miles of Mist and Clouds departed.

Like a swift wind and lightning, in the blink of an eye, he left Yan Sect Pass and headed toward the distance!

"This... this... really just passing through?"

Meng Tian swallowed hard, unconsciously wiping the sweat from his forehead!

Meng Wu, on the other hand, collapsed in exhaustion, falling straight to the ground.

Even Wang Ben nearly lost his footing!

After all, it was Li Yuanba!

Too fierce!

Too ferocious!

If he were to unleash his fury, Yan Sect Pass would be finished!

Do not look at the fifty-something thousand strong army; this number of troops might scare the Xiongnu soldiers or someone else, but to scare Li Yuanba?

Hehehehe...

However... he was also relieved, relieved that the city gates had opened!

Only thus was a catastrophe avoided!

However... Meng Wu and Meng Tian continuing to resist the new emperor was ultimately not a solution!

Wang Ben was pondering, needing to find a way to resolve this matter!

But... regarding this matter, for the time being, he truly had no particularly good solution!

Xianyang City!

Outside Xianyanggong!

At this very moment, a Changdachao Society was in progress!

The Grain Administrator Xiao He reported:

"Reporting to the Retired Emperor, the grain and fodder sent to the front lines this month has been distributed!"

The Left Chancellor Li Si reported:

"Reporting to the Retired Emperor, Zhang Liang, responsible for collecting taxes from various regions, reports that bandits are causing chaos in Dong Commandery; please send imperial court troops to suppress them!"

The Right Sima Zhuge Liang reported:

"Zhao Tuo reports that the Baiyue tribes are assembling a great army, swearing to attack and take Nanling, requesting the imperial court to send reinforcements!"

In the court hall!

Seeing Ying Zheng stood in the middle of the court hall!

Listening to the reports from the crowd of officials below, his expression was dark and gloomy to the extreme!

At this moment, his fists were clenched tight, looking at Ceng Guofan, Zhuge Liang, and Li Si before him, as well as Xiao He!

He was even angrier to the extreme!

Wait!

Seeing Ying Zheng?

Standing in the middle of the court hall?

That is correct!

It was indeed Seeing Ying Zheng!

Moreover, he was standing in the middle of the court hall!

He did not sit upon the imperial throne!

Why?

Not that he did not want to!

But rather... damn it... he could not!

Even more, he dared not!

And all of this must be traced back to over four months ago!

Roughly four months ago.

At that time, the armies of Han Xin and Wang Jian had just set out on campaign!

They setting out was one thing, but they also took away everyone around Facing Ying Su!

Naturally, this included Li Yuanba!

Seeing Ying Zheng realized at that moment that the opportunity had arrived!

He and Zhao Gao began to plan and conspire!

To take advantage of this rare opportunity, send Jing Ni to ambush and capture Facing Ying Su!

Use Facing Ying Su to threaten Li Cunxiao!

But... what Seeing Ying Zheng never expected was that although Li Yuanba had left, the experts around Facing Ying Su surprisingly did not decrease at all!

Qiao Feng, Yao Yue, and Lu Bu, Lu Da, Cao Zhengchun!

Each and every one of these people was fierce!

Each and every one was powerful!

Especially that Yao Yue; she was practically glued to Facing Ying Su's side!

Causing Jing Ni to have absolutely no opportunity to approach Facing Ying Su!

"Then ignore her. If it doesn't work, kill her, then capture Ying Su!"

Zhao Gao gave this order!

Thus, on a certain night, Jing Ni, taking advantage of the darkness, engaged in combat with Yao Yue!

But... after just one exchange, Jing Ni was forced to retreat!

"This person's martial arts are too high; even I cannot take her down!"

"Moreover, besides her, there is Yu Yu Huatian, and there is Qiao Feng!"

"If the fight lasts too long, it will easily draw them over!"

Jing Ni recounted her difficulties!

Zhao Gao was desperate; having no choice, he could only report this matter to Seeing Ying Zheng!

Seeing Ying Zheng was also helpless, but what could be done?

At this moment, he could only endure and tell Zhao Gao: "Wait! Destroying the Xiongnu is not an easy matter; this battle will last at least a year. That means Li Yuanba will not return within a year, and there will always be a lack of people around Ying Su! There will always be an opportunity!"

"Additionally, tell Jing Ni to attend him closely and strive to gain Ying Su's trust; this way, it will be easier to strike!"

He spoke thus, enduring and waiting!

And just two months later, finally, Jing Ni reported that she had completely gained Ying Su's trust; now, she had become a palace maid attending Ying Su, seeing Ying Su once every three days!

"A good opportunity!"

Seeing Ying Zheng's eyes lit up brightly; he immediately summoned Xuan Jian, Yan Ri, and many experts from the Shadow Secret Guard, planning to launch a full-scale assault on Ying Su and capture Ying Su alive!

However, just the night before this operation was about to begin, suddenly, Zhao Gao rushed in to report:

"Your Majesty... the... the Sixth Young Master has arrived!"

"The... the rebellious son Ying Su?"

Seeing Ying Zheng was stunned; he was shocked to the extreme and hurriedly asked Zhao Gao: "Has our plan been leaked? Has he come to seek revenge?"

Seeing Ying Zheng was very panicked!

Zhao Gao quickly reported:

"This matter was top secret; Jing Ni's infiltration has always been excellent. She entered the palace through the selection process! Getting close to Ying Su, she climbed up step by step through various screenings and inspections; there was absolutely no flaw!"

"It is impossible for him to have discovered this!"

"He didn't discover it?"

"Then what has he come for? How many people came with him?"

Seeing Ying Zheng asked, confused!

Zhao Gao said: "Just him alone, but... he is bringing Li Cunxiao!"

"Just one person?"

"Li... Li Cunxiao?"
