Nodding slightly, Ying Zheng continued to speak, "Among so many assassinations, is there anyone who can do this?"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Jian's eyes changed slightly, as if he was thinking about this matter carefully.

After a while, he finally said, "If you can achieve such an assassination, then this is really the first time..."

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, "Break through the defense barrier of the widow directly, and do things that absolutely no one could do before. How powerful his methods are, don't you need to say more?"

"He is a talent, if he can be used by others, it will definitely bring great benefits to Daqin."

Hearing this, Wang Jian understood Ying Zheng's intentions.

It turned out that it was because he cherished talents too much and was reluctant to kill Zhang Liang.

But at the same time, his brows were furrowed, and his expression became more solemn, "No matter how much your Majesty cherishes his talents, that guy is an assassin! Just let him out like this, what if he makes a comeback?"

Ying Zheng's face was indifferent, "If you have been timid all the time, can you make it this far?"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Jian fell silent immediately.

He knows how difficult it is for Yingzheng to come to this day, and the number of times he almost lost his life is countless.

But in the face of those dangerous moments, Ying Zheng was not afraid at all, but responded calmly, and finally turned the danger into safety.

······

Zhang Liang dragged his tired and bruised body, and staggered out of the prison.

As soon as he walked outside the palace gate, a crying woman came up to meet Zhang Liang and hugged Zhang Liang, "Liang'er! My Liang'er! How did you become like this?"

Seeing Zhang Liang's miserable appearance, the woman cried even more painfully.

My son, who has been cared and cared for since he was a child, is now being tortured so badly that he naturally makes the woman very sad.

Seeing Zhang's mother being so sad, Zhang Liang forced a forced smile, and replied in a weak voice, "Mom, I'm fine."

Zhang's mother looked at Zhang Liang with a sad face, "How can you be okay after you are like this?!"

Then she turned her head slightly, and her eyes fell on the two servants who were waiting not far away, "What are you still doing in a daze! Come and help the young master!"

After the words were finished, the two servants stepped forward quickly and helped Zhang Liang into the carriage.

The two were sitting in the carriage, and Zhang's mother kept comforting Zhang Liang, "It's okay, Liang'er, I have already found the best doctor for you, and I will treat the wound for you in a while and it won't hurt anymore!"

Zhang Liang looked indifferent, "It's just a minor injury, it's fine."

Mother Zhang frowned, "It's still like this, is it still a minor injury?! Can't you let mother save some time?"

Hearing this, Zhang Liang's expression darkened a little, "I'm sorry mother, I'm so useless."

"Not only did it fail to make you feel at ease, but it also kept causing you trouble. Even father's revenge has never been avenged."

Hearing this, Zhang's mother was also heartbroken, "What are you talking about?! Mom doesn't want anything else, as long as you are well!"

Taking a deep breath to calm down, Zhang Liang's eyes became sharp again, "But mother, don't worry, my father's hatred will definitely be avenged, and when the boy gets better, we will regroup!"

Hearing this, Mother Zhang's complexion froze, and she fell silent immediately.

After a while, she continued, "Forget it."

Zhang Liang was taken aback, "What?"

Mother Zhang's expression became stern, and she stared at Zhang Liang with her eyes, "Forget it! Don't do those unnecessary things anymore!"

Zhang Liang's expression changed, "How can you say it's a meaningless thing to avenge your father?!"

"Snapped--"

As soon as the words fell, Mother Zhang slapped Zhang Liang loudly on the face.

A palm print appeared on his face, Zhang Liang was stunned.

In memory, it was the first time that Zhang's mother treated herself like this.

Then Mother Zhang hoarsely said, "After losing your father, do you want me to lose your son too?!"

Faced with this question, Zhang Liang felt as if his heart had been stabbed by a long needle, and he froze in place.

Seeing Zhang Liang like this, Zhang's mother was heartbroken again, and hugged Zhang Liang, crying uncontrollably, "Lianger, let's find a quiet place and live an ordinary life like this..."

Hearing Zhang's mother's cry, Zhang Liang's eyes were empty, and he was stunned without any reaction.

Chapter 233 Gunpowder came out?

In the palace, Ying Lan was resting on a rocking chair, enjoying this rare leisure time.

Suddenly, a maid came in, "My lord, someone wants to see you."

Ying Lan still kept her eyes closed, and asked casually, "Who is it?"

The servant girl cupped her hands, "That man is holding the token you gave me."

Hearing this, Ying Lan also understood that someone from the manor should be here, so she waved her hand, "Let him in."

"Yes!" The maid stepped back, and soon a man walked in.

Seeing that it was Wu Qi who came, Ying Lan stood up and greeted him, "Old Wu!? Why did you come here?"

Wu Qi Yinglan is also clear, he has to manage many things such as the manor and Qianji Pavilion, and he is usually very busy, and he is definitely not the kind of person who comes to the palace when he has time.

Seeing Ying Lan, Wu Qi also bowed his hands, "Didn't the young master say before that the gunpowder would be informed to you as soon as it was researched? That's why I came here."

Hearing this, Yinglan couldn't help but be overjoyed, "The gunpowder came out?!"

Wu Qi nodded slightly, "The current situation is indeed very similar. The thing glows after being ignited, and it is the same as the gunpowder you mentioned, but you need to check the details."

Knowing the importance of gunpowder, Ying Lan stood up without hesitation, "Let's go! Take me to see it now!"

······

The fiery red round sun hangs in the sky, pulling out a long black shadow on everything on the ground.

At a glance, there is a boundless plain, surrounded by towering trees that immediately fall, it seems that the slowly moving carriage is somewhat descriptive.

In the carriage, Zhang Liang lowered his head slightly, looking a little worried.

If he wanted to speak his mind, he naturally wanted to continue to avenge his father's death.

But seeing his mother sobbing, he couldn't bear to worry Zhang's mother any longer, so he had to agree to follow Zhang's mother to the Baiyue border for a while.

Seeing that Zhang Liang seemed to have something on his mind, Mother Zhang also said, "Although this place is a bit desolate, but fortunately there is Baiyue, and the officials of Daqin are all focused on Baiyue, and rarely notice us. .”

"So we just need to find a quiet place to live."

Hearing Zhang's mother's words, Zhang Liang only nodded slightly, but remained silent.

Seeing this, Zhang's mother continued: "Although life will be simpler and more difficult in the future, but with you here, mother will have nothing to ask for."

Looking at Zhang Liang, Zhang's mother couldn't help crying again.

Seeing Zhang's mother crying so sadly, Zhang Liang stretched out his arms and gave Zhang's mother a hug, "The baby will be here, everything will be arranged by mother."

But at this moment, the carriage stopped abruptly, and there was a shake in the carriage, almost causing Zhang Liang to lose his footing and fall.

Zhang Liang didn't go out until he stood firm, and looked outside with even more doubts, "What's wrong?"

The middle-aged coachman turned his head quickly, smiled at Zhang Liang, and then said, "I'm sorry, young master, because there seems to be a situation ahead, so I stopped the carriage."

Hearing this, Zhang Liang was also taken aback, and then got off the carriage, only to hear screams coming from the front.

Zhang Liang was taken aback for a moment, then walked forward slowly, and the coachman followed closely behind.

Passing through the dense woods, the two finally stepped over the hill, and everything in front of them suddenly became clear.

At the foot of the mountain in the distance, a village was ablaze, and the villagers were fleeing in all directions.

The Baiyue cavalry on horseback fought everywhere. Wherever the horses went, they chopped down anyone they saw, and one after another the villagers fell to the ground.

All of a sudden, the originally peaceful village turned into a purgatory, with corpses piled up everywhere, blood flowing into rivers on the ground,

There were screams everywhere, which made people feel desolate.

Looking at this scene, Zhang Liang frowned, his eyes were burning with anger, "Damn guy!"

The coachman on the side also had an ugly expression, but he still said: "It's dangerous here, let's leave quickly, master!"

Zhang Liang stared at the village below, but his expression was a little hesitant.

He naturally wanted to sit idly by the invasion of this foreign enemy.

Perhaps seeing what Zhang Liang meant, the coachman frowned, and continued: "Madam is still waiting for you to go back. If we are targeted, Madam may also be in danger!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Liang's complexion also changed slightly.

He can help regardless of his own safety, but he can't ignore Zhang's mother's safety.

Sighing lightly, Zhang Liang still turned around and walked towards the carriage.

Back on the carriage, Zhang's mother also looked at Zhang Liang with a puzzled expression, "What's wrong in front, Liang'er?"

Zhang Liang shook his head slightly, "It's nothing, it's just that something happened, it seems that we have to go another way."

And the coachman outside also changed direction directly.

Seeing this, although Zhang's mother was still a little puzzled, but seeing that Zhang Liang didn't really want to say anything, she didn't continue to ask.

Along the way, the atmosphere was slightly heavy.

Seeing the scene of the village being massacred, Zhang Liang felt distraught.

After walking for a while, suddenly there was only the sound of horseshoes.

Sensing that something was wrong, Zhang Liang's expression tightened, and he immediately yelled at the driver outside, "Hurry up and hide!"

And the coachman was also an extremely experienced person, and he didn't panic in the face of such an emergency. He immediately turned his head and looked around, and then drove the carriage into a bush on the right.

Because of the high terrain and the dense bushes, this place is still relatively hidden.

If you don't look carefully, it's really hard to find it for a while.

And Zhang Liang did not continue to stay in the carriage, but got out of the carriage, hid in the dense forest and looked in the direction of the horse's hooves, wanting to know what was going on.

Not far away, more than a dozen Baiyue cavalry came galloping on horses.

And in front of the Baiyue cavalry, a woman covered in scars was running forward at a fast pace.

She was holding a baby in her arms, and while running away, she looked behind, with a terrified expression on her face.

But the Baiyue cavalry in the rear laughed, obviously enjoying the pleasure of having fun, "Run away! Run away!"

"Yes! If you don't hurry up, the child will be gone!"

Seeing this scene, Zhang Liang's expression suddenly tightened.

······

On the other side, Ying Zheng and Wang Jian also rushed to the Baiyue border with a team of imperial cavalry.

Ying Zheng rode on the horse and looked at the village that was already completely silent, only the smoke from the fire could be seen, his face became stern, "Are you sure Zhang Liang has appeared around here?"

Wang Jian's face was also very ugly, "The old minister has been sending people to follow, and he is indeed going in this direction. I wonder if he will meet these Baiyue thieves."

Hearing this, Yingzheng's face was also slightly worried, "Search! We must ensure his safety!"

After the words fell, the group of people immediately took action again and began to look for Zhang Liang's trace.

Chapter 234 Distress

On the other side, although the woman fled frantically under the pursuit of the Baiyue cavalry, her speed was still not as fast as that of a war horse. No matter how hard the woman tried, she couldn't get away.

Looking at the child in her arms, the woman also became more and more flustered, and she fell to the ground without paying attention to her feet.

But even if she fell down, she tried her best to protect the baby in her arms, so that the baby would not get hurt at all.

As the woman fell to the ground, the Baiyue cavalry quickly came up to her, sneered at the woman, and said, "Run! Run away!"

"Aren't you able to run just now? Why didn't you run away!?"

"Just lying on the ground like this, don't you want to save the child?!"

Facing the ferocious Baiyue cavalry, the woman looked helpless and could only call for help, "Help! Help!"

While shouting, she looked around, her eyes full of helplessness.

Seeing this, the Baiyue cavalry laughed even more happily, as if enjoying the fun of playing.
