Chapter 966: The Cruel Truth

Although today it was the Chu rebels attempting to assassinate Seeing Ying Zheng, conversely, the fact that the other party's assassination failed, and even that they killed so many rebels in one fell swoop and captured the commanders of three of the four great legions of Chu, as well as the remnants of the Xiang clan, was indeed a huge harvest!

If these people were allowed to lurk in the dark, who knows what they would stir up with their energy and strength.

Therefore, Seeing Ying Zheng was not afraid of assassination; sometimes he even wished for these people to jump out.

Jump out one, kill one.

When all the rebels jumped out and were all killed, there would be no more rebels in this world, and the Qin State's empire would become even more stable.

"Hearing Xiang Liang and Xiang Chao died at the hands of the Grand Master in the past. Now, Grand Master, follow me to meet these remnants of Chu!"

Seeing Ying Zheng extended an invitation to Su Xuan.

Su Xuan nodded gently.

Afterward, the two gave up on chess and stood up to leave.

Playing chess was just a way to pass the time; it could be said that neither of them had ever taken the outcome of this game to heart.

Soon, the two arrived at a side hall of the palace.

Hearing Xiang Liang, Xiang Bo, Fan Zeng, Long Qie, as well as a few soldiers found in the reed marsh, and Xiang Yu were all bound with iron chains, with a few Shadow Secret Guard members guarding them on the side.

Because illusion incense had been used on these people earlier, they were all in a dazed state at this moment.

"Let them wake up a bit!"

Seeing Ying Zheng did not speak, but Su Xuan instructed the Shadow Secret Guard members first.

The Shadow Secret Guard members did not feel it was inappropriate and immediately took out the antidote.

As another burst of fragrance permeated the air, these people first let out a series of coughs and then slowly regained their senses.

Because they had been subjected to illusion incense, when these people woke up, they first let out a cough.

Afterward, many memory fragments flashed through their minds.

They finally reacted: they had become prisoners because their assassination of Qin failed.

Long Qie, Hearing Xiang Liang, and the others suddenly raised their heads and looked at the people in front.

Among them, Xiang Yu even shouted the name of the person in front without any concealment: "Seeing Ying Zheng! ～～!"

His voice carried deep anger.

Before this, he had not seen Seeing Ying Zheng, but the person in front of him, dressed in black robes and wearing the Pingtian crown that only the Son of Heaven could wear, if not Seeing Ying Zheng, then who else could it be?

Hearing Xiang Liang, Xiang Bo, Fan Zeng, and the others also whispered the identity of the person in front of them: "Seeing Ying Zheng!"

Long Qie even struggled, intending to break free from the chains binding him and launch an attack on Seeing Ying Zheng.

However, after he made this movement, he found that he had no strength at all.

There were many experts in the jianghu, and there was no lack of people who could break free from chains with their bare hands. How could the Shadow Secret Guard not have considered this? Therefore, when they imprisoned these people, they had already inserted silver needles into their vital acupuncture points, using the needles to lock their points and seal all their power.

On the other side, the youth Xiang Yu made the same movement as Long Qie and soon realized this point.

Because Seeing Ying Zheng was in front, the Chu rebels were emotionally agitated. Relatively speaking, the Grand Master Su Xuan, who stood beside Seeing Ying Zheng and had single-handedly caused their assassination attempt to fail, was not as important.

This was also the first time they had seen Seeing Ying Zheng since the assassination began.

No, to be precise, it was the first time in their lives they had seen Seeing Ying Zheng.

After all, Seeing Ying Zheng had always resided in the Xianyang Palace, and Seeing Ying Zheng had never been to the Chu State during the destruction of Chu. The last time Seeing Ying Zheng toured the east, they were also hiding in the Yunmeng Marsh, so naturally, they had no chance to see what Seeing Ying Zheng looked like.

"I did not expect that there would be so many people left in the Xiang clan of Chu!"

"Even after the fall of Chu, three of the commanders of the four great legions are still alive!"

Facing the Chu people with complex expressions, Seeing Ying Zheng spoke, and his words left them horrified.

They never expected that Seeing Ying Zheng would know their origins.

The meticulous Fan Zeng could not help but ponder: what exactly happened after they were captured?

His last memory was only of falling into unconsciousness for an instant, and after waking up, he found himself here.

Now it seemed that something must have happened.

Otherwise, it could not explain why Seeing Ying Zheng knew their identities and origins. ===== CHAPTER 968 =====
