In the Wu Residence, Teng Yi bandaged his wound personally and observed: “If the arrow is shot an inch higher, Third Brother would not be able to come back alive”
At this juncture, Jing Jun came back and reported: “I finished irls are safely home”
Xiang Shaolong frowned and thought aloud: “I am dead sure one of the Qin Court officials tipped Tian Dan off Otherwise, he would not have found such an excellent opportunity”
Beside hi is killed, everyone will suspect Lu Buwei Qin will be in chaos”
Jing Jun interrupted: “Will it be Lu Buanted to kill you through Tian Dan? After you are dead, he will push the blame to someone else!”
Teng Yi countered: “Not likely The attackers would have killed Ying Ying and Lu Dan’er as well It is lucky that they left earlier and were not ambushed!”
Xiang Shaolong sighed coldly His earlier ambush and escape is an once-in-a-lifeti ropes and caused the ene, he will not be able to survive
Tao Fang added: “We should count our blessings that the arrows are not lace with poison It must have been a hasty decision and they did not have ht be different”
Pausing, he continued: “Weofficial went to see Tian Dan after the Court was dismissed We must knoho the spy is or ill continue to suffer in his hands”
Xiang Shaolong advised: “It will not be easy! To conceal their secret relationshi+p, they will have a covert communication method that will not be easy to discover”
Teng Yi cut in: “Based on the fact that theyyou out of the city, this spy has a deep knowledge of Xianyang City affairs and may even be someone close to them From this deduction, your assassins are neither Lu Buwei nor Meng Ao”
Jing Jun was about to voice his opinion when Wu Shu ca in and reported: “There is a letter from the farm!”
Xiang Shaolong was elated and took the bamboo container from him He opened up the lid and withdrew a letter As expected, it was the forged letter from Lord Chunshen to Li Yuan
