Chapter 347 The Night Before the Storm

In the study, Ying Yuan stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, silent.

The moonlight from the window shone on him, stretching his shadow very long.

At this time, Chen Ping walked in again with a serious look on his face.

"Young Master, Zhao Neng's men have already started to act secretly. Several generals in the imperial guards have been won over by him and may obey his orders at any time." Chen Ping said in a deep voice.

Ying Yuan nodded, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Zhao Neng's plan is finally complete." He said coldly, "However, he still underestimated me."

Zhao Neng's actions were not too covert. He thought he could control the situation by relying on his control over the imperial guards, but in Ying Yuan's eyes, these actions had already been seen through.

"Mr. Chen, what's going on with Hu Hai?" Ying Yuan continued to ask.

Chen Ping bowed and replied, "Hu Hai's men have also been mobilized. According to the intelligence from the spies, he plans to launch a surprise attack within three days in an attempt to control the key areas in the capital."

"Hu Hai..." Ying Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly and sneered, "Does he think he can turn the world upside down with this mob?"

Chen Ping smiled slightly: "Sir, these troops may seem powerful, but in fact they are just a group of pawns used by Hu Hai. Hu Hai wants to use their power, but he obviously underestimates our strength."

Ying Yuan nodded.

Although Hu Hai was ambitious, he obviously had no real strength.

His current actions were merely an attempt to create chaos at the instigation of Zhao Neng.

"Since they are going to move, then we will play with them." Ying Yuan said coldly, with murderous intent gradually appearing in his eyes.

He has decided not to wait any longer.

Zhao Neng and Hu Hai's actions had reached the point where they could no longer be concealed.

If he waits any longer, the situation will become disadvantageous to him.

"Mr. Chen, pass the order down. All Jinyiwei are on alert and ready to act at any time." Ying Yuan ordered in a deep voice.

"Yes!" Chen Ping immediately took the order and turned to leave.

Ying Yuan's gaze passed through the window and fell on the dark night sky.

He had seen where this was going.

The joint action of Zhao Neng and Hu Hai was doomed to fail.

They thought they were in control of everything, but in fact, every step they took had fallen into Ying Yuan's chess game.

This storm is no longer under their control.

Outside the study, black shadows flashed, and dozens of Jinyiwei disappeared into the darkness. Their figures disappeared quickly in the night like ghosts, lurking towards every corner of the capital.

This is the last line of defense arranged by Ying Yuan.

As long as Zhao Neng and Hu Hai took action, the Jinyiwei would attack with lightning speed and completely crush all their conspiracies.

Ying Yuan knew very well that Zhao Neng's cunning and Hu Hai's ambition had reached a point of no return.

This battle must be fought quickly and decisively, and we must not leave them any chance to breathe.

At this moment, a low voice came from outside the study.

"Sir, the news has been confirmed. Zhao Neng's men will take action at midnight tonight." The spy hurried into the study and reported in a low voice.

Ying Yuan's eyes turned cold and a sneer appeared on his face.

"Zhao Neng really can't wait."

He had long guessed that Zhao Neng would choose to act late at night because this was the quietest time in the capital and it was the best time to take action.

However, Zhao Neng obviously did not realize that Ying Yuan had already anticipated his plan.

"Very good, pass the order down, everyone enter the highest state of alert." Ying Yuan said coldly.

"Yes!" The spy took the order and retreated immediately.

Ying Yuan sat back at the desk with a deep look in his eyes.

This night will be the night that decides victory or defeat.

The conspiracy of Zhao Neng and Hu Hai is about to surface, and Ying Yuan will personally put an end to their ambitions. In the dead of night, the streets of Xianyang are silent.

However, in this seemingly peaceful night, a crisis is quietly brewing.

Zhao Neng's imperial guards have already assembled outside the capital, ready to break into the city at any time.

Hu Hai's men had already been lurking in various key locations, waiting for the order to take action.

But what they didn't know was that Jinyiwei's spies had already infiltrated their team and were secretly monitoring their every move.

All of this is under Ying Yuan's control.

At midnight, the atmosphere in the capital became increasingly tense, and an invisible sense of oppression seemed to permeate the air.

At this moment, Jinyiwei commander Feng Jie hurried into the study with a serious expression.

"Sir, Zhao Neng's imperial guards have already started to move, and Hu Hai's men are also gathering in secret."

Ying Yuan nodded slightly, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

"Great, it's finally here."

He stood up and said coldly: "Pass the order and act according to the plan. Zhao Neng and Hu Hai, don't even think about escaping!"

"Yes!" Feng Jie immediately took the order and retreated quickly.

In the study, Ying Yuan's eyes were as sharp as knives, staring coldly at the darkness outside the window.

At this moment, the conspiracy between Zhao Neng and Hu Hai finally came to an end.

But they didn't know that the outcome of this chess game was already under Ying Yuan's control.

Just when Zhao Neng's imperial guards were about to break into the capital, the Jinyiwei surrounded them from all directions like ghosts.

Zhao Neng's troops were stopped outside the city and had no chance of entering the capital.

At the same time, Hu Hai's men had just gathered in the capital when they were quietly surrounded by the Jinyiwei, leaving no one with any chance to resist.

A carefully planned conspiracy completely collapsed under Ying Yuan's layout.

Ying Yuan sneered and sat back at the desk with a faint smile on his face.

"Zhao Neng, do you really think you can beat me?"

This night was destined to become a nightmare for Zhao Neng and Hu Hai.

Every step they take is under Ying Yuan's control.

Zhao Neng and Hu Hai thought they could control the situation, but in fact, they had already become pawns on Ying Yuan's chessboard.

Only when the Jinyiwei completely destroyed the power of Zhao Neng and Hu Hai did Ying Yuan finally breathe a sigh of relief.

He knew that the storm had passed, and next, he would completely eliminate all threats.

The situation in the capital will once again be in the hands of Ying Yuan.

That night, the fate of the Qin Dynasty was rewritten, and Ying Yuan stood at the top of the storm.

"Zhao Neng, Hu Hai, your doom has come." Ying Yuan said coldly, his voice revealing endless majesty and determination.

The future of the Qin Dynasty is destined to belong to him.

Anyone who dares to challenge him will be ruthlessly defeated.

On the eve of the storm, no one is spared.

In this power struggle, Ying Yuan has already secured victory.

Ying Yuan stood quietly in front of the window, staring at the distant sky.

Everything last night was under his control.

The conspiracy of Zhao Neng and Hu Hai shattered like a bubble, and he had completely dismantled the plot.

But Ying Yuan knew that this was just the beginning. (End of this chapter)
