Chapter 20 Looking at the favored Wang Wan, Zhao Gao was so angry that his eyes turned red.



"I order you to investigate the location where the young man appeared."

"Did they truly appear out of nowhere in the mountains, or were they spies sent by other nations in disguise?"

"You must investigate thoroughly. Find out every place she's been, every word she's said, every action she's taken, and every person she's come into contact with!"

Until now, Ying Zheng still has a little doubt about Qi Pan's appearance and her identity!

He must thoroughly investigate all suspicious people!

Eliminate all potential dangers one by one!!!

Nineteen was shocked!

He lowered his head and said, "Yes!"

In the warehouse.

Zhao Gao put the box on the shelf, turned around and was about to leave, but he didn't know what he thought of.

Stopped again.

He turned around and looked at the box with intricate patterns, then walked step by step to the shelf.

He reached out, opened the box, and looked at the neatly arranged stack of red banknotes inside.

After hesitating for a long time, he still stroked it gently with trembling hands.

The unique texture of the banknotes made his heart sway and waver.

Zhao Gao turned around and looked around like a thief.

After making sure that there was no one around, he folded a banknote in half and stuffed it into his sleeve.

He closed the box again and walked out of the warehouse.

The young eunuch guarding the storehouse was standing at the door. When he saw Zhao Gao coming out, he stepped forward and saluted with a big smile on his face.

"Lord Zhao."

"Um."

Zhao Gao glanced down at the young eunuch and said, "Close the storehouse."

"Guard His Majesty's things well. If anything is missing, not only will my family be blamed, but His Majesty will not forgive you."

Hearing this, the young eunuch said hurriedly: "Oh! Yes, yes, yes!"

"Master Zhao is right. I will definitely keep an eye on the warehouse! I won't dare leave even a step!"

"Um."

Zhao Gao snorted and walked away with his chin raised.

Looking at the direction where he disappeared, the young eunuch finally stood up straight and pooh-ed to the side!

"Pooh!"

"What the hell!"

"Isn't it because you rely on His Majesty's favor that you dare to be so arrogant?"

"When His Majesty gets tired of you one day, I'll show you how I'll deal with you!"

He turned around and looked around. Seeing that there was no one around, the young eunuch walked to the door of the warehouse.

Curiously, he poked his head out and looked inside.

Not daring to go in, he quickly retracted his head and slammed the warehouse door shut.

............

No words were spoken that night.

the next day.

After the court session, Ying Zheng sat upright behind the imperial desk, holding bamboo slips in his hands, and handled state affairs.

Wang Wan was sitting behind a desk on the lower side.

The table in front of him was piled with rolls of bamboo slips.

There was even a small pile on the ground next to it.

Although there were many government affairs to deal with, Wang Wan was extremely happy at this moment.

It is his honor that Your Majesty thinks so highly of him.

The more government affairs he deals with, the more His Majesty values him!

He held a bamboo slip in one hand and a carving knife in the other.

The little mustache on his chin twitched happily.

Ying Zheng turned to look at Zhao Gao who was standing beside him, "Go to the imperial kitchen and get a bag of rice."

"Take it with you when you leave the palace later. Also, go to the weaving department to see if the robes are ready. Take them with you."

Zhao Gao hurriedly said, "Yes."

Then he walked out of the hall quickly.

Ying Zheng continued to look down at the bamboo slips in his hand. After processing one scroll, he put it aside, picked up another scroll and continued processing it.

There were many government affairs in the court, and he handed over the unimportant ones to Wang Wan to handle.

As for the remaining ones, there are still many that he needs to deal with personally.

Nineteen suddenly appeared in the hall and saluted, "Your Majesty."

Ying Zheng raised his eyes and asked, "What? What did you find out?"

Nineteen said, "Your Majesty, that prayer seemed to appear out of thin air."

"Within the Great Qin territory, no trace of her presence or life has been found anywhere else except within the mountains."

oh?

Is it true that there is no trace of her in the territory of Daqin except in the mountains?

Although only one night had passed, Ying Zheng was very clear about the capabilities of the Black Ice Guard.

Since Nineteen said that he didn't find anything, there must be no clue at all.

No trace can be found.

But Ying Zheng never let down his guard, he gave orders in a deep voice.

"Continue to investigate, and investigate in several neighboring countries."

"promise!"

Nineteen took the order, then moved his feet, and disappeared from the spot in a flash.

Wang Wan, who was sitting behind the desk, was not surprised by this situation.

He and several important officials in the court knew about the Black Ice Guards in His Majesty's hands.

He comes and goes without a trace, has great martial arts skills and uses ruthless methods.

Wang Wan continued to lower his head and handle the government affairs in his hands.

He has to hurry up and deal with so much. He doesn't know if he can finish it before dark.

The number of bamboo slips on Wang Wan's desk was three times more than that on Ying Zheng's desk.

An hour later.

Ying Zheng put down the last scroll of bamboo slips in his hand and rubbed his sore wrist.

He stretched, pounded his legs, and stood up.

Um?

Aren’t your legs sore and numb today?

strangeness.

He knelt and handled state affairs for over an hour, and his legs didn't feel a bit sore or numb?!

Yesterday in the inn, I only knelt for about half an hour, but I felt so numb that I couldn't stand up.

Is it possible that he is really afraid of strangers with these legs?

Ying Zheng said to Wang Wan, who was sitting behind the desk, "My Lord, I will leave the palace for a while. I will leave this place to you."

Wang Wan quickly put down the bamboo slips in his hand, stood up, bowed, and said.
