Chapter 418 White Flowers Bloom, Shangguan’s Surprise

At noon, the gunpowder smoke outside the city dissipated. Under the arrangement of the Shanglinyuan guards, almost all the Guizhou leaders entered the book, received their salary, and left happily. They wanted to tell their families that the reconstruction of Epang Palace was not the end of the world.

He served as a corvee but received a generous monthly salary.

They wanted to tell their families that there was a young master named Li Zhao in Shanglinyuan who was their benefactor. He saved them from all kinds of difficulties and hired them as members of Shanglinyuan.

They even want to say how great the young master is, creating a Shanglin Garden specifically for the benefit of Guizhou leaders like them. For a time, young master Li Zhao became a god in their hearts.

And some of the leaders of Guizhou stayed. They knew that the grand meeting was about to be held, and they wanted to witness their benefactor Li Zhao.

Thousands of troops disappeared, as if they had disappeared out of thin air. Without the confrontation on the city top, without the aggressive shouts of killing, Shanglin Garden suddenly fell into silence.

So, some people walked out of the city to see what was going on, but to their disappointment, they saw nothing. There was only the usual peace and the cheers of birds around them.

But they were happy and applauded. There was no threat. They could leave freely and no longer need to be afraid.

However, within an hour, rumors spread that the event was temporarily canceled and rescheduled two days later. The reason was that the protagonist of the event, Li Zhao, was captured by thieves and disappeared.

This news set off three waves.

For the head of Guizhou, Li Zhao was also a benefactor, their parents who provided food and clothing, and a godly man who helped them avoid corvee labor. If the benefactor was captured, he would be angry and in chaos, and he would be rescued.

For a time, almost all the people in Guizhou Province were filled with indignation and poured out of Shanglin Garden one after another, heading towards the surrounding area.

Some people say that Young Master Li Zhao was captured in the west, and the thief fled into the dense forest; some say that Young Master was tied up and could not say a word; what's worse, Young Master's arm was cut off, and his life or death is uncertain.

This was bad news, which aroused the anger of Guizhou leaders even more, and everyone scattered in search of him.

On the top of the mountain, the situation here is still the same. Li Zhao is tied up, Xiang Liang is being held aside, and Shangguan is anxiously waiting for the news, with a look that seems crazy but also eager.

What he wanted to do was very important, which was to capture the current emperor, the man who was above everything else.

Suddenly, there was a sound of thin ropes coming from the bottom of the mountain, and a person was walking up in a panic, stumbling and very panicked.

"Shangguan, it's not good, it's not good, the deputy general led thousands of troops into the strong pavilion and never came out again."

This person was the detective stationed at the west city gate. When he saw that the solid pavilion door was suddenly closed tightly, and no one came out for a long time, and no sound was heard from inside, he became anxious and came back to report.

"Didn't show up?"

When Shangguan heard this, his whole body shook.

You must know that this is the last step of his plan. If he fails again, he will face two major threats. One is the capture of the Qin army, and the other is the intolerance of Duke Xiang. He finally gained the trust of Duke Xiang, how could he be defeated?

Woolen cloth?

"Can it be seen clearly?"

He started to become restless.

"True!"

Zaitan nodded affirmatively.

Shangguan's body swayed again, and he fell back weakly, almost falling to the ground, "It's not there! What's wrong?"

He couldn't accept this reality, "Impossible, impossible!"

He knew very well about Ying Zheng's trip, but there were only dozens of guards in the palace. Dozens of people were stationed in the pavilion, and thousands of people entered it, but there was no news at all. It was completely impossible.

He turned his head and looked at Li Zhao fiercely, unsheathed his sword and walked towards him ferociously.

"Tell me, is it true? Why is it so?"

He went completely crazy.

Li Zhao didn't react much, and he wasn't afraid when facing the sharp sword that shone with cold light, because he knew that Shangguan didn't dare to kill him.

"Of course it's true. Although the Strong Pavilion is just a pavilion, it is very dangerous. Even if you have thousands of troops, you can't get out of it."

Li Zhao explained with a smile that at this moment, he didn't need to hide anything. He wanted to make Shangguan completely frightened and completely crush his ambitions. He also wanted to let him know that his plan was nothing more than mediocre.

"It's impossible. There is no such dangerous place in the world, not even the Mohist organization."

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, among the hundreds of schools of thought, the Mohist system was more outstanding. The Qin soldiers experienced its sharpness, but they were still destroyed by the Qin soldiers.

Li Zhao looked at him mockingly, full of pity, thinking to himself how an uncivilized person could know the sharpness of electricity. Comparing it to the Mo family's mechanism simply insulted the name of electricity.

"Do you know how the lights in my Shanglin Garden turn on? You must know about electricity too!"

Since the opening of Shanglinyuan, the most eye-catching thing has been the electricity. Naturally, many people know that Shangguan must have known about such careful planning.

He continued: "Electricity can turn on lights, but it can also kill people, or it can destroy them all."

"What do you mean?" Shangguan became frightened.

Of course he has experienced electricity, and he also knows that when exposed to it, he will feel uncomfortable and numb all over his body, but it is not life-threatening. "It is just a numbness."

"Ningma? Hehe! If it is a normal voltage, it will not kill people, it will just cause numbness. But what if it is a high voltage? Not necessarily, haha! But killing people invisible is more terrifying than a large-scale murderer.

exist."

Now that things have happened, there is no need to hide the horror of electricity. They will understand this one day. Now they just let him know in advance, but so what if he knows, they have already fallen into the trap.

As for what high voltage is, he won't explain that much.

"Compared to a great weapon?" Upon hearing this, Shangguan took a few steps back and looked at Li Zhao in fear. He had never been so afraid of a person.

There was no sound, let alone a fight, and thousands of people disappeared without a trace. What a terrifying thing it was.

He had known for a long time that Li Zhao was terrifying, but he never imagined that he could be so terrifying. He finally understood why Duke Xiang had to capture Li Zhao but could not hurt him. This must be the reason!

"So." He suddenly thought of the West Gate, which was opened for no reason. "The West Gate was opened by you and not by my people?"

"Of course, otherwise how could you lead your people to the west gate and enter the strong pavilion."

"You" Shangguan listened and suddenly felt shivers all over his body. His eyes were fixed on Li Zhao, staring at this terrible person.

It turned out that this was all Li Zhao's conspiracy, and he fell into it. Li Zhao's plan was better than his own, and he was unwilling to do so. No, he was a cautious person, how could he lose? There must be something wrong there.

Yes, when he heard that the west gate was open, he had doubts, and he cautiously tested it again and again. Finally, he made a hasty decision when he heard that there was a fast horse heading towards Xianyang.

Yes! He was already scheming at that time, using his fear of Xianyang to break his caution. He was such an insidious person and a terrible person.

"So, the people who went to Xianyang were also sent by you. They were asking for help from Xianyang, but they actually led me to attack the Strong Pavilion?"

Shangguan reluctantly confirmed his thoughts.

But Li Zhao shook his head and nodded, which was very confusing.

"For you, it's half right! But for me, it's killing two birds with one stone."

"Achieve two birds with one stone?" Upon hearing these four words, cold sweat broke out on Shangguan's back, and his whole body became extremely cold.

Kill two birds with one stone. One is to break your own caution, but what about the other? Could it be?

"What about the other one?" He stared at Li Zhao again.

Li Zhao smiled brightly and said: "I just want to tell Zhang Han that there is something strange about the confinement palace."

"The palace of confinement? Young Master Hu Hai." Shangguan's expression changed, and he was extremely panicked.
