Da Qin: I exposed myself as a time traveler, why are you Zhao Gao panicking?

Chapter 188 Qin Chi’s wedding!

After the fire was extinguished, the guards immediately investigated the cause of the fire.

I saw a mess inside the inn, with tables and chairs overturned and beds scattered.

What is particularly striking is that there are traces of fighting in many places in the inn.

In the ruins, the guards caught a glimpse of several headless corpses. They were all dressed in fine clothes. They were obviously from the Chu Kingdom.

It is not difficult for the Underworld Assassins to steal the bodies of several thieves and prisoners in the city.

Looking around, he saw fragments of weapons and stains of blood, indicating that there had been a bloody battle here.

One of the soldiers pointed to the corpse and said: "These are all Chu people. Judging from their appearance, they seem to be fighting fiercely with others."

The guards looked around, but saw no trace of those who were fighting against the remnants of Chu.

The centurion pondered: "The combatants may have escaped, or they may be hiding somewhere."

After saying this, he ordered his soldiers to inspect the scene carefully, looking for any clues.

A soldier leaned down, stared at the ground, and suddenly said: "There are messy footprints here. You may be able to find some clues by following the vines."

The centurion nodded and said: "Good, you will split up as soon as possible and follow this trail! Send someone to check the inn's books to see if there is anything suspicious."

The guards took the order and left, searching for clues.

This case was strange and unusual, and the guards knew that there must be something fishy involved.

As the investigation deepened, they gradually discovered some intriguing clues, which may be able to reveal the mystery of those who fought against the remnants of the Chu Kingdom.

At this time, there was also a lot of discussion in Xianyang City.

The case is like a fog, shrouding the city.

The people were speculating one after another and couldn't agree on one thing, while the guards were doing their best to uncover the truth behind the fog.

During the investigation, the guards obtained another important clue.

In a corner of the ruins, the guards found the inn registration book that had been burned to pieces.

Spreading out the bamboo slips, although the ink marks were a little blurred due to water and fire, the handwriting on them could still be discerned.

You can tell at a glance that the names are Chu people's names. Xiang, Xiong, etc. are among them. These people are all marked as guests staying here.

The guards compared the time carefully and found that the time when they moved in actually coincided with the time of the fire last night.

How can such a coincidence be easily dismissed as accidental?

"Could the fire last night have something to do with these remnants of Chu?" A guard speculated in a low voice, with a trace of vigilance flashing in his eyes.

When the centurion heard this, he frowned and said in a deep voice: "This is reasonable. The Xiang family is a powerful family in the Chu Kingdom. The people in the clan are all brave and good at fighting, and they have the ambition to restore the country. There must be a plan to sneak into Xianyang this time! Last night The fire may be a signal for their actions, but we don’t know!”

When all the guards heard this, their faces showed solemn expressions!

They knew that if the fire last night was really caused by the remnants of Chu, then there must be a bigger conspiracy hidden behind it!

The safety of Xianyang City may have been threatened.

"Report this matter quickly!" the centurion ordered decisively, "At the same time, strengthen the security in the city to prevent the remnants of Chu from causing trouble again!!"

The guards agreed in unison and then split up.

A manhunt for the remnants of Chu was quietly launched in Xianyang City.

In Xianyang City, there was a lot of discussion for a while, everyone speculated on the truth behind the fire.

The centurion reported the incident to his superior general.

When the general heard this, he looked solemn and immediately summoned his subordinates to discuss countermeasures.

Everyone knows that the Xiang family... that is, Xiang Yu and other remnants are a serious concern of the Qin Dynasty. Now that they appear in Xianyang City and make such a big noise, they must have an ulterior motive.

The discussion was settled, and the general decided to report the matter to the palace in person!

So, he led the centurion and several cronies to rush to Zhangtai Palace!

At this time, Zulong was busy with government affairs. When he heard that the general asked for an audience, he put down his pen and ordered the guards to introduce him.

After the general entered the palace, he knelt down and saluted, and then reported the incident of the fire at Xianyang City Inn to Zulong.

Ying Zheng is sitting under the throne, his face is majestic and arrogant.

He was dressed in a mysterious robe, intertwined with gold and jade threads, and his dragon scales shone brightly, just like a real dragon coming into the world.

Wearing a flat crown on his head, the beaded curtain swayed slightly, reflecting his eyes as deep as the sea, which reflected wisdom and determination.

Hearing the guard's report about the Xianyang Inn, Zulong's brows suddenly furrowed, like dark clouds covering the sun, and the atmosphere in the entire hall became condensed.

He tapped the imperial case with his fingers, and every blow seemed to be weighing the general trend of the world.

"Who is this force?" Zu Long said to himself in a deep voice, his voice revealing unquestionable majesty, "The remnants of the Chu Kingdom dare to sneak into Xianyang. What is their purpose?"

His eyes were like a torch, scanning the guards who were kneeling before His Highness, as if he wanted to see into their hearts.

The guards felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, and their hearts were suddenly chilled. They did not dare to hide anything and reported everything they knew.

Including headless corpses and records in the inn books...

After hearing this, Zulong pondered for a long time, then slowly said: "Check! Find out the ins and outs of these remnants of the Chu Kingdom, and their every move in Xianyang! I want to know what they want to do!"

As soon as these words came out, the entire Zhangtai Palace was shocked.

The guards took the order and left, not daring to slack off at all.

Time flies, and it is already three days later.

The city of Xianyang is completely new.

The streets and alleys are decorated with lights and colorful lights, and red lanterns are hung high, like strings of crystal clear agate, swaying gently in the breeze.

Colorful flags fluttered and ribbons of various colors were intertwined to form brilliant rainbows spanning the streets, decorating the entire city like a fairyland.

The people in the city walked out of their homes one after another, with joyful smiles on their faces.

They gather together in small or small groups, talking about the upcoming happy event!

Or take the old and the young together and stroll through the streets and alleys, admiring this rare bustling scene.

The children were the most excited. They shuttled among the crowd, chasing and playing, with laughter and laughter.

At this moment, the entire Xianyang City was immersed in this joyful and peaceful atmosphere.

Today is the wedding day of Jiuqing Tingwei Qin Chi, who has been granted a marriage by His Majesty! !

Ministers from the DPRK and China came to congratulate him one after another!

I saw Qin Chi, wearing a vermilion auspicious suit, with dragons and phoenixes in auspicious patterns, and gold embroidery, showing the honor of the nine ministers.

He wears a golden feather crown on his head, inlaid with beads and emerald green, which shines brightly and complements his heroic appearance.

At this moment, sitting on the tall horse, with high spirits and looking forward to life, he is really like a dragon or a phoenix among people!

Like stars over the moon, Qin Chi walked slowly amid the crowd.

But on both sides of the street, people gathered, cheering and vying to see such a magnificent sight!

The men high-fived and praised, while the women hid their faces shyly, but secretly raised their eyes to peek.

Wherever Qin Chi passed, there were crowds of people and thunderous cheers.

The people talked about it one after another, saying that this gentleman was not only talented and beautiful, but also made great contributions to the Qin Dynasty.

Some old Confucian scholars shook their heads and chanted: "A dragon walks like a tiger, his bearing is extraordinary, his red clothes touch his forehead, his blessings and longevity are long!!"
