Daqin: My weak and virtuous minister

Xinzheng

"Master Zhang, I feel like someone is following me these days."

In the study, Yao Jia came hurriedly and said this nervously when they met.

Zhang Yuanqing looked at Yao Jia. Yao Jia thought Zhang Yuanqing didn't believe him, so he reaffirmed, "It's true. Although we haven't found out who's following me, my intuition has been right over the years. I've escaped death several times thanks to it."

Zhang Yuanqing nodded. "I didn't disbelieve Lord Yao Jia's words. I was just wondering who was following you."

Ever since the last incident of killing the chicken to save the monkey, the Korean nobles have become much more obedient and will not do such a thing in the short term. Who could it be?

Zhang Yuanqing had a candidate in mind, but he was not quite sure yet.

"I do have a suspicion."

"Who?"

"Zhang Liang, grandson of Zhang Kaidi and son of Zhang Sheng."

He was the only one who could do this. However, historically, he was known to have been keen on assassinating the First Emperor. So why would he have someone following Yao Jia now? Could it be...

"This man is quite talented and famous in Xinzheng, and Zhang Kaidi values ​​this grandson very much."

"I had someone pay special attention to this person before, but he was rescued by a servant on the day Xinzheng was captured, and his whereabouts are unknown."

"I think he's having someone follow you."

Yao Jia was confused. Why was this person following me?

"Hahaha, has Lord Yao Jia forgotten his own heroic deeds? Zhang Liang's grandfather and father-in-law were both made ill by your anger. Especially his grandfather, you could say he was indirectly angered to death by you. How could he not hate you?"

"This," Yao Jia was speechless. This reason made sense.

"Well, go find General Hengqian, tell him the situation, and ask him to give you some men."

"You continue your daily routine as usual, but you have to go to a fixed place,"

"You're thinking"

"Lue the snake out of its hole."

Not long after, Yao Jia left Zhang Yuanqing's place, wandered around outside for a while, and then went back.

In the afternoon, he went to General Hengqian again.

When Fusu returned, Zhang Yuanqing packed up and sent them to General Meng Ao, under the pretext of learning military tactics. This time, Ada and Li Xin also accompanied them.

In the next few days, Yao Jia came to Zhang Yuanqing every day to discuss things, then went to the tavern to sit for a while, and then went home.

"I've found out. This is Yao Jia's activity trajectory over the past few days."

"Okay, then let's do this tomorrow... this way..."

"promise."

"Li Xin, do you think the master is hiding something from us?"

"I don't know." Li Xin shook his head. This was the twelfth time the young master had asked this question today.

"Ah, Li Xin, you're so boring. No matter what I ask you, you just don't know the answer."

Fusu looked at Li Xin unhappily, his clear eyes full of accusations.

"I don't know."

Fusu...

Fusu had no choice but to open his little notebook and look at the questions he had recorded before. He wrote down the ones he could figure out and prepared to ask General Meng Ao later about the ones he couldn't figure out.

Yao Jia stayed in Zhang Yuanqing's study for more than half an hour before getting up and leaving.

"Lord Yao Jia, be careful."

"Don't worry, I cherish my life very much."

Yao Jia smiled and left.

After going out, I went to the same tavern.

The servant went to the wine shop to buy a pot of good wine, and Yao Jia took a carriage to rush home.

The carriage suddenly stopped halfway.

The fifty or so men on the opposite side came at us with swords in hand and attacked without a word.

The servants that Yao Jia brought with him immediately drew their swords and fought.

Yao Jia got off the carriage and looked at the assassins, sword in hand. "General, how long are you going to wait for us to help?"

"Why are Lord Yao Jia so anxious? I am here right now."

Xin Sheng is a brave general in the army, and Heng Qian trusts him very much. This time when Yao Jia came to ask for help, he asked Xin Sheng to be responsible for protecting Yao Jia.

Xin Sheng brought fifty people to join the battle. The Qin soldiers were all brave and soon all the assassins were eliminated.

Xin Sheng examined the bodies of several assassins and the swords they used. "They are Koreans."

"Master Zhang is indeed as foresighted as a god."

On Zhang Yuanqing's side, he also welcomed a group of uninvited guests at this time.

The number of people is no less than that of Yao Jia's side.

This time, Ying Zheng sent a hundred people led by Li Xin to escort Zhang Yuanqing and Fusu to Nanyang. Zhang Yuanqing was also protected by this group of people when he came to Xinzheng, and Zhang Han was one of them.

These days, Li Xin protected Fusu, so he asked Zhang Han to be responsible for protecting Zhang Yuanqing with these hundred people.

A few days ago, Zhang Yuanqing found Zhang Han and told him that someone might come to assassinate him recently, and Zhang Han took it very seriously.

Sure enough, today he finally got the chance to see these thieves.

Protecting Zhang Yuanqing is no less meritorious than killing the enemy in battle. If they can capture these people this time and return to Xianyang, the king will definitely reward them handsomely.

The soldiers looked at this group of a hundred or so assassins, and they all appreciated the merits of each one of them. They only regretted that there were too few of them.

After a wave of arrows, the assassins fell down defenselessly.

"Damn it, I fell into a trap."

"kill."

Zhang Han rushed out with his furious men. Seeing the few remaining assassins, he grabbed his sword and chopped at them without saying a word.

The assassins had already been hit by the rain of arrows, and their morale was greatly reduced. When they saw the ferocious Qin army, they became even more timid.

One by one, they became victims of Zhang Han and his men's swords.

Zhang Yuanqing sat in the room and did not go out.

So many protagonists in TV dramas don't know their own strength and go out to make trouble, and end up getting injured or poisoned. He doesn't want to be like that.

I will definitely not go out and hinder Zhang Han and the others.

"My Lord, the assassins have been eliminated."

After hearing what Zhang Han said, Zhang Yuanqing straightened his clothes and prepared to go out.

When he opened the door, he saw Zhang Han covered in blood. "Are you injured?"

"Don't worry, my Lord. This is all the blood of the assassins."

Zhang Han was only sixteen or seventeen years old, even smaller than his own body. He had never expected that he would display such outstanding military talent when the Qin Empire was about to collapse. Zhang Yuanqing couldn't help but take a few more glances at him.

"Everyone has worked hard. Go down and wash up. When we return to Xianyang, the king will definitely reward you."

"promise."

Zhang Han turned and left, but just after taking two steps, he felt danger. In an instant, an arrow cut through the air and flew towards him.

"Master Hou, be careful."

Zhang Han turned around, pushed Zhang Yuanqing, and kicked the arrow feather.

"Catch the assassin."

Zhang Han didn't dare to leave. He ordered his men to chase the assassin and turned around to see Zhang Yuanqing's situation.

"cough cough cough"

He fell to death.

How could Zhang Yuanqing withstand Zhang Han's push, which was a full-strength push?

My head hit the ground and it hurt so much that my vision went black.

"Master Hou!"

Zhang Han was also frightened.

He walked over in two or three steps and helped Zhang Yuanqing sit up.

Zhang Yuanqing felt dizzy and lost consciousness before he could say anything.

Zhang Han was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and quickly reached out to check Zhang Yuanqing's breath.

Fortunately, fortunately, I am still breathing.

Zhang Han picked up Zhang Yuanqing, put him on the bed, and asked someone to call a doctor immediately.

Chang Qiong ran very fast with the medicine box, and Er followed behind him.

Seeing the unconscious Zhang Yuanqing, Chang Xin quickly sat down beside the bed and took his pulse.
