Chapter 38
Ying Gao asked the guards to prepare five Qin crossbows, which was of particular importance. Yang Zi and Feng Qing were naturally indispensable. It was enough to leave one for themselves to prevent emergencies. As for mass production, Ying Gao had never thought that he could make a fortune by making small inventions and small creations, but in such a special historical period, things outside of him were useless.
After the guard left, Ying Gao kept playing with his improved war crossbow. It was so small that it was very convenient to hide it in the wide sleeves or tie it around his waist. What was this? This was the second life in this era! Ying Gao certainly had to temporarily put the craftsman who helped him transform the war crossbow into house arrest. Of course, it could also be said that it was delicious and delicious. In this way, if anyone wanted to assassination, the assassin might not know what was going on, so he had already gone to the Great Leiyin Temple of the West...
For most of the day after that, Ying Gao had something to do. He practiced the use of this modified war crossbow with Feng Qing in the back garden of his mansion. Facts have proved that it is indeed very difficult to teach a rich lady like Feng Qing, who knows nothing about fists and feet.
For half a day, the maids in Yinggao's mansion often heard the sound of panting and "slap" in the garden. The maids thought to themselves that the wife was a little clumsy and was punished by the young master, which scared them to run away. As for whether the actual situation was as they thought, it was unknown...
Half a day of hard work temporarily made Ying Gao forget two shocking events in his head. He and Feng Qing and he fell asleep on the couch just at night. This time, it was the second day when the sun was noon.
"By the way! Yang Zi is so impatient. If he fails to see me, he will be suffocated to death."
As soon as he opened his eyes, Ying Gao thought of Yang Zi's big, watery eyes, and his ears that were like chanting a mantra, saying that she wanted to leave the palace. Obviously, he should go and see. Although it was not a real man to put all his hopes on a girl who had just been eighteen years old, it was a bit difficult for Ying Gao to take control of so much. It was time for him to unite everything that could help him save Daqin.
...
"Brother, weren't you still anxious yesterday? Why are you not anxious today? If I had known this, why would I have spent my time copying Qin Rules for Hu Hai for most of the day, and went through a lot of hardships to find out what my brother had entrusted?"
Sure enough, what Ying Gao got to the palace was Yang Zi's eager expression. With Yang Zi's memory in Ying Gao's mind, if she had such a look, she would probably have done something she had entrusted to her. She wanted to use this as a threat and make the conditions with herself.
But the 18-year-old princess of Daqin, of course, could not fight against the highly educated compound talents who were more than two thousand years later...
"When you leave the palace, your brother has thousands of ways to do it, but without your brother, you may not be able to leave the palace half a time if you rack your brains, right?"
Sure enough, as soon as he said this, Yang Zi's previous momentum softened a little, and Ying Gao pulled him into the inner room of his hall. Obviously, Yang Zi, who had been in the palace for a long time, also knew that there was a reason for the partition walls. Some things could not be said loudly in his hall, otherwise it would be easy to cause trouble.
"But yesterday's incident has its mark?"
Seeing that Ying Gao's face became very serious after he got inside the house, Yang Zi didn't dare to keep it in a silence. Although she just took a word out of Hu Hai's mouth intermittently, she also knew that it involved important people entering and leaving the Xianyang Palace. If Ying Gao wanted to know their affairs, then what he wanted to do would definitely be extraordinary.
"That belt is indeed as my brother said, belonging to the secret craft team under my father's command in Xianyang Palace. According to Hu Hai, there were only three people who could be related to the secret craft team before he saw in front of his father. They were his teacher Zhao Gao, left prime minister Li Si and general Zhang Han. However, since Brother Fusu was assassinated, he had only seen Zhang Han have communicated with the secret craft team. According to Hu Hai, Li Si and Zhao Gao rarely appeared in the palace these days. However, Zhang Han came a lot more than before, but according to Hu Hai's words, Zhang Han was very boring and didn't even want to say a word to Hu Hai..."
When Yang Zi reached the end, she found that Ying Gao was no longer listening to what he was saying, but fell into deep thought.
"Brother? What I said just now..."
"Oh, I already know, but I didn't expect it to be him..."
"Who is it?" Obviously Yang Zi couldn't quite understand the stupid words Ying Gao said.
"You don't have to pay attention to these things. I will discuss with my father as soon as possible when leaving the palace. Just wait here. Remember, you should not get too close to Hu Hai any more during these days."
At this time, Ying Gao in Yang Zi's eyes was already quite unfamiliar. In the eighteen years she lived, she had never seen her brother's serious look. Such Ying Gao undoubtedly made her feel that she had never felt in these years. Yang Zi had a feeling that she would be quite safe when obeying her brother's arrangements. So, she almost nodded subconsciously, as if she had agreed to Ying Gao.
He patted Yang Zi's head, Ying Gao said nothing, but quickly left Xianyang Palace. He needed to go home and calm down and think carefully, and take some of the clues.
Hu Hai would not lie to Yang Zi. At this time, he did not have the scheming, and of course he did not seem to have such a scheming until he died.
So before Fusu was assassinated, the only ones who had the opportunity to get in touch with the secret magic team were Zhao Gao, Li Si and Zhang Han. But it was strange that after Fusu was assassinated, the First Emperor actually alienated Li Si and Zhao Gao, and instead treated Zhang Han as before.
Indeed, Li Si was not from Qin when he was young, but he arrived in Qin after Xunzi was invincible. Zhao Gao was the same. This fully demonstrates that the First Emperor believed in Zhang Han, or was testing Zhang Han, or... some people predicted such a situation and wanted to frame Zhang Han.
For a time, it was difficult for Ying Gao to straighten out the complex relationship. How long did Zhao Gao stretch out his hand, what was Li Si's position, and how much did the First Emperor trust Zhao Gao? These unknowns made him dare not act rashly at all, otherwise it would be the result of a mistake that would lead to eternal regret.
