Chapter 474

Yes, before Ying Gao came here, he did not expect that this matter would continue to develop like this, nor did he expect that Hu Hai would dare to do such a crazy thing assassinating himself halfway through without any foundation. He did not expect that after the assassination failed, Hu Hai would do something like that, perhaps, that might have been abscond.

You should know that although Hu Hai had been staying in the Xianyang Palace of the Qin Dynasty before, his life was quite generous, at least he had to eat, drink and drink. Now he is a county magistrate in Xiang County. Although the geographical location of Xiang County is indeed a little remote, the county magistrate can also enjoy the best treatment in Xiang County, right?

But now, Hu Hai gave up these things just for the sake of the emperor who didn't know how far away it was for him. He didn't even give him the chance to kneel in front of Ying Gao to argue, and chose to escape directly.

Ying Gao miscalculated Hu Hai's decision this time, and Hu Hai completely walked out of his comfort zone. In the future, he would likely face a completely different life than before, until he was captured by Ying Gao and executed, but he still did that. Although Fusu called him a scum of the Ying clan, in Ying Gao's opinion, Hu Hai was really doing this, but he was not strong enough to get to the right place.

But in the end, this situation happened. Ying Gao naturally could not waste time with Hu Hai. Although he had not told Fusu and the others, Ying Gao himself knew in his heart that with Hu Hai's ability, he would definitely not be able to find a helper as capable as the man who assassinated him. So Ying Gao guessed in his first year that Hu Hai must have been involved with Zhao Cheng. The reason why he escaped was mostly because of his relationship with Zhao Cheng, which gave him a place to go.

"Yes, this matter must be carried out by my brother. However, according to what Liu Wei said in his previous letter to me, there should be a team of people in the dense forests of Xiang County. These people seem to be from South Vietnam, but in fact they may be commanded by several people from Central Plains. According to my guess, these people are Zhao Cheng who had spread rumors in my Xianyang City before!"

"Zhao Cheng? Who is this? Could it be that Zhao Gao's three tribes were not completely killed?"

When Fusu heard the name of Zhao Cheng at first, he was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it a little, he suddenly realized that he still had some impression of this name. When he was in Xianyang City, he heard that a clan brother of Zhao Gao was domineering in Xianyang City. For this matter, Fusu had told the First Emperor several times. Isn’t this guy named Zhao Cheng?

"It was this person who for some reason, when he killed the three tribes of Zhao Gao, he actually missed this guy. According to my previous investigation, this guy has been lurking in Xianyang City for several years. The rumors about the princes of the Qin Dynasty that broke out when I was not in Xianyang City were the first planner of this guy. Now he must be near Xiang County. If his brother can find this person, it should be not far from finding Hu Hai."

These things really made Fusu a little stunned, but he was not responsible for killing the three tribes of Zhao Gao, nor did it by Ying Gao, but by the very angry First Emperor himself.

So the two of them couldn't blame anyone at this time, so they could only think quietly about how to do this ass.

"Since that's the case, I will send some people to the south of Xiang County tonight to take a look. Maybe Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng have not left yet. If they can be captured within one or two days, it will be considered a perfect merit."

Fusu knew that this matter seemed very simple, but because Hu Hai's special identity was really difficult to deal with. Especially if Hu Hai was unable to catch Hu Hai for a long time, Ying Gao was not easy to say anything to the outside world. Even if the fact of this matter was finally known by the people of the Qin Dynasty, it was also the family scandal of the Ying clan. He would not play any role in stabilizing Ying Gao's position just because he caught or dealt with Hu Hai.

So Fusu also wanted to deal with this matter as quickly as possible so as not to eventually collude with Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng and become a climate on the border of the Qin Dynasty. If such a thing is spread, it will be of no benefit to Ying Gao.

"It's good, but my brother must be mentally prepared. Zhao Cheng and Hu Hai are not all cash. Since he has decided to escape, he will probably hide in a place we can't find in the first place, so as to be able to slowly plan. Brother will not tell others about this. Among the three counties in Lingnan, there is only brother. Liu Wei and another confidant from Guilin County, Sun Qian, will know about it. You and the other three must be prepared to deal with Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng for a long time. Otherwise, once they grow bigger in the future, it will be difficult to wipe out quietly."

After hearing Ying Gao's words, Fusu's heart also felt a little sad. The meaning in Ying Gao's words was clearer, that is, to catch Hu Hai secretly, and then execute him secretly, and it was the best result. If the result was not good, he would probably become a complete enemy with his brother in a long time in the future.

After the two discussed for a while, Fusu sent a team of elite troops under his command to rush to the place Liu Wei mentioned before Xiangjun overnight to see if he could gain something.

But the result of this matter was the same as Ying Gao had predicted before. After another day, Fusu found Ying Gao alone and said with disappointment that the place described by Liu Wei had been investigated by Fusu's men before, and found that it had become a ruin. What was going on before was impossible to tell at all. One of them came back to report, while the others were still doing investigations nearby, but Fusu knew in his heart that the possibility of such investigation finding the result was very small.

"It seems that my brother still needs to go to Xiang County with me. Now that Xiang County has no county magistrate, I naturally cannot ignore it!"

According to the report of the people who returned, they had also arrived at Linchen County, the county seat of Xiang County, but the officials in the county told them that Mr. Hu Hai and his wife had set off to Nanhai County to meet Ying Gao. Obviously, this completely confirmed the fact that Hu Hai ran away.

After running away, Ying Gao naturally could not ignore it. Before he returned to Xianyang City, he must redesign Xiang County, otherwise anything would happen.

Faced with such a proposal, Fusu had to agree. After all, he was a pioneer of the three counties in Lingnan and had the most soldiers. When something happened to the other two counties, he had no choice.

Just when Ying Gao and Fusu frowned because of Hu Hai's incident, Hu Hai's situation was not as good as he thought.

On the night when he made a decision a few days ago, Hu Hai was really confused at the beginning. In fact, he still wanted to take a gamble in his heart. If his arrangement really killed Ying Gao, then the road in the future would be a large and prosperous road, letting himself gallop.

But after calming down, he found that Ying Gao might not be assassinated so easily. Liu Wei had all his affairs. Once Ying Gao learned about these things, even if they had no evidence, Ying Gao's temperament would never allow him to survive in this world. Hu Hai still had this judgment.

So, after Qi Yi said the words that left the green mountains without worrying about burning firewood, Hu Hai and Qi Yi decided to flee.

In fact, before fleeing, Hu Hai had told Qi Yi that almost everything he could enjoy before would leave them in an instant. The life they would live in the future may be much harder than the life Qi Yi had lived before.

Hu Hai even proposed to leave Qi Yi in Xiang County and create the illusion of his own escape. In this way, a woman like Qi Yi will not only not be able to be Ying Gao, but may even be able to be the inner supporter of Hu Hai and the others.

However, this seemingly good proposal was flatly rejected by Qi Yi. When she thought of Ying Gao's condescending eyes, a chill emanated from her heart. She never wanted to see Ying Gao's eyes again, so she would rather follow Hu Hai. After all, Hu Hai also has the bloodline of the First Emperor, and he is only twenty years old. As long as he does not die, everything is still possible.

So, according to the previous investigation of the man, they fled to the south of Xiangjun while the night was falling. In fact, they didn't know where the man's nest was hidden, but Hu Hai had a solution.

As they advanced, they were indeed captured by people who came out of nowhere in a place full of towering trees.

After the two were captured, they were taken to a dark tree house. Hu Hai, regardless of the kind of person in front of him, directly reported to his house, claiming that he was Hu Hai, the son of the First Emperor, and came to see the leader here.

Of course, the person who captured him was under Zhao Cheng's command. Zhao Cheng never expected that Hu Hai would run away directly without knowing whether the assassination was successful, and the target of his escape was actually him, which Zhao Cheng did not expect.

When Hu Hai took the initiative to get into his hands, Zhao Cheng naturally had two ways to choose, one was to kill him directly, and the other was to accept him.

After getting to know Hu Hai with the injured man, Zhao Cheng finally decided to meet this disciple of his brother, who was once the most hopeful person to become emperor in Daqin. After all, his brother spent a lot of time and energy on Hu Hai before. Although Hu Hai was just a tool for Zhao Gao to overthrow Daqin, the two still had a strong relationship after such a long time together.

Finally, Hu Hai finally met Zhao Cheng, who had been hiding in the darkness for almost several years, and when he first saw Zhao Cheng, Hu Hai felt familiar, but in the end he still didn't remember who the person in front of him was, because in Hu Hai's impression, his teacher had already been killed in the three clans, and it was impossible for anyone related to Zhao Gao to live in this world.

Until Zhao Cheng said something to Hu Hai, Hu Hai widened his eyes in surprise and also knew why he had sent that big man to contact him without telling him his identity.

"If my brother is still alive, he will applaud you because of your actions. You are a man who has been following your brother since childhood!"

After Zhao Cheng made such an sigh, Hu Hai finally remembered where he had seen this person before.

"You... are you the teacher's clan brother, Zhao Cheng who had been hanging in Xianyang City before?"

Zhao Cheng actually had a lot of contact with Hu Hai. Whenever Hu Hai wanted to go out to Xianyang Palace to play, Zhao Gao naturally could not take him to show off in Xianyang City. Therefore, when Hu Hai was young, almost all such tasks were handed over by Zhao Gao to his younger brother Zhao Cheng.

Zhao Cheng often took Hu Hai around in Xianyang City, and bought Hu Hai some items he liked. The reason why Hu Hai did not recognize Zhao Cheng before was because he didn't expect it, but the most important reason was that Zhao Cheng's figure and appearance were really different from Hu Hai's previous impression.

"Why did you dare to escape? Although the assassination of the Emperor of Daqin this time did not work, they did not have any evidence of your opposition to Qin. As long as you act as usual, the Emperor of Daqin could not directly execute you under pressure. At most, he would take you back to Xianyang City and be under house arrest, and he would live a good life of escape."

Because he has been running away, Zhao Cheng still has a say in this escaped life. Now Hu Hai has become a person who is sympathetic to him. Zhao Cheng still admires his courage very much.

"This Qin should be mine. How can I live in the shadow of others? Since I have started planning this matter, as long as I don't die, I will fight for the position of emperor of the Qin Dynasty. I think what you think is the same as mine. If you don't want to show up, that's fine. You can plan. I am the parent-child of the First Emperor. When I need to show up, I will naturally show up. I want to believe that there will still be many people supporting me on this Qin land. If you don't need me, then I will execute me. All the people on the left will die. It's better than a traitor from the Qin Dynasty to die under the emperor's butcher's knife as a traitor from the Qin Dynasty?"

After Hu Hai finished speaking this seriously, he smiled with a self-deprecating smile. It was obvious that at this time, his heart was already in vain and he didn't care at all about what the final result would be.
