As soon as he returned home, Zhao Qingrui felt that the atmosphere in the house was a little wrong. The guards in the house protected the whole house and looked like they were on high alert.
Zhao Qingrui was a little worried and planned to call the housekeeper over to ask.
"Sister Zhao, something seems to be going on at your house, so we won't disturb you." Wang Xian also noticed that something was wrong here.
"Okay, I'm sorry for not hosting you well today." Zhao Qingrui nodded. She was a little absent-minded at the moment.
"If you encounter any trouble, you can come to the Wang family." Before leaving, Wang Xian looked at Zhao Qingrui seriously.
"If that time really comes, I will definitely have the nerve to go find Sister Wang." Zhao Qingrui smiled. She could see that Wang Xian was sincere.
After seeing Wang Xian and the others off, Zhao Qingrui quickly walked towards the main courtyard.
When we arrived at the main courtyard, Dad and Uncle Meng were both there, and both of them looked unhappy.
"Qingrui is back so early. I haven't had much fun with your friends." Seeing his daughter coming back, Ying Zheng's serious expression faded a little and he asked gently.
"Dad, Uncle Meng, what's wrong with you? Did something happen at home?" Zhao Qingrui asked hurriedly.
"It's nothing. We just encountered a group of petty thieves. It's not a big deal." Ying Zheng said calmly.
He was startled by the sudden attack, but fortunately the bracelet on his wrist emitted a white light, and the assassin's dagger was only a few inches away from him and could not penetrate him, allowing the black-armored guards to capture them all.
But, it still made him angry.
Taking a deep breath, Zhao Qingrui was also startled. He looked at his father seriously, "How could there be a thief in Xianyang? Dad, tell me honestly, have you offended anyone?"
"Probably." The corners of Ying Zheng's mouth twitched. He had indeed offended many people. The remnants of the six kingdoms all wanted to cut him into pieces.
His hand gently stroked his wrist, which was the bracelet given to him by his daughter.
He hadn't taken it seriously before. It was a gift from his daughter, so he just took it with him.
Unexpectedly, he saved his life at the critical moment. He now believes more and more that his daughter's master is a god.
"In this case, Xianyang is too dangerous. Let's go back to Jingshui Pavilion." Zhao Qingrui said seriously.
Ying Zheng: ...My daughter really won't miss any opportunity to ask me to go back.
"I'm fine, your bracelet is really powerful. With it protecting me, I will be fine." Ying Zheng caressed the bracelet lovingly. He would never let it go from now on.
Meng Yi stood obediently aside. He was frightened by the previous assassin attacks, especially one assassin who suddenly approached the First Emperor. Fortunately, the white light that suddenly rose enveloped the First Emperor and protected His Majesty.
This scene directly shocked all the assassins. Such ability was completely beyond their understanding.
This also gave the Black Armor Guards an opportunity to catch all the assassins in one fell swoop.
These assassins have now been sent for interrogation, and the results should be out soon.
Seeing his father couldn't let go of the bracelet, Zhao Qingrui felt a headache. If he had known, he would not have given the bracelet away.
However, she did not regret it. If it were not for this bracelet, she might not have been able to see her father this time.
The father and daughter looked at each other, and Zhao Qingrui wanted her father to go back.
Unfortunately, Dad was determined.
In the end, Zhao Qingrui was the first to give in. "Dad, what on earth did you do in Xianyang? Why would someone come to kill you?"
When Zhao Qingrui thought about his father being assassinated in Xianyang, he became increasingly furious.
Ying Zheng did not say anything. Needless to say, those people must be the remnants of the Six Kingdoms.
However, he didn't really want his daughter to know about these things.
Seeing that his father didn't say anything, Zhao Qingrui became even more angry. "Uncle Meng, tell me, what exactly is going on?"
"It's okay, don't worry, miss. The master will be able to handle these things quickly, and those people won't dare to come again next time." Meng Yi said seriously.
"That's right, we'll kill all those people right away."
Zhao Qingrui glared at her father. Even at this time, her father still wanted to hide it from her, which made her a little angry.
"Qingrui, don't worry about this matter. Don't worry, your father is lucky and has a long life. Nothing will happen to him." Ying Zheng said hurriedly when he saw that his daughter was a little angry.
"How can I feel at ease?" If this wasn't her biological father, she would have lost her temper.
Dad is good in every way except that he never listens to advice.
"Don't you have this bracelet?" Ying Zheng chuckled. It's great to have a daughter.
Zhao Qingrui looked at the bracelet and really wanted to take it back so that his father would not continue to hang out outside.
After returning to his yard, Zhao Qingrui sent his men out to investigate the matter.
Fortunately, we brought a lot of people out this time, otherwise it would be impossible to ask someone to check.
Zhao Qingrui felt a little sad because her father kept everything from her. It was obvious that her father treated her as an outsider.
Seeing his daughter leave the yard, Ying Zheng couldn't help but smile bitterly. This girl's temper was getting worse and worse.
"The little princess obviously won't give up. Your Majesty, do you want to stop the little princess from investigating this matter?" Meng Yi asked softly.
"Well, tell the people in the mansion." Ying Zheng nodded.
"Let Dun Ruo find out the origins of these assassins as soon as possible."
"promise."
The assassination attempt failed and everyone was imprisoned.
Inside a house somewhere in Xianyang, several people looked at each other.
"All those killers have been caught. What should we do?" The plan failed completely, which was something they never expected.
"What else can we do? Evacuate Xianyang overnight and pack up your things quickly. The Black Armor Guards have started searching Xianyang. We should leave quickly before the Black Armor Guards arrive." A man came hurriedly from outside and said.
After he finished speaking, several people immediately packed up and left the courtyard.
The men moved very gently, obviously having received professional training.
When the black-armored guards arrived, the place was already deserted.
After the First Emperor was assassinated, the entire city of Xianyang was placed under martial law.
Several people ran out of Xianyang before the city gates were closed.
"Oh no, the Black-Armored Guards are chasing us, let's go." Just as a few people stopped to rest, the person on guard spotted the Black-Armored Guards chasing them.
When Ying Zheng heard the report from the Black Armor Guards that the assassins had escaped and were lost, he was furious. These people were useless and could not even catch the assassins.
After having dinner in the courtyard, Ying Zheng took Meng Yi back to the palace. He couldn't sleep peacefully unless he pried open the mouths of those assassins today.
"What? My dad is out?" Before Zhao Qingrui could figure out how to find those assassins, he heard the guards he had arranged to guard the courtyard come to report that his father was out.
"Yes, he just left, and Steward Meng followed him."
