"Sir, should we guide Hu Hai to take action next?"

Ying Yuan smiled slightly.

"No need."

"Hu Hai can no longer sit still. He will take the initiative to attack."

"Next, we just need to wait and see and wait for them to fall into our trap step by step."

Chen Ping smiled, he knew that every move of Ying Yuan had been carefully planned.

Everything that follows is just waiting for the opponent to make a fatal mistake.

"My lord is wise. I will fully cooperate with your plan." Chen Ping said respectfully.

Ying Yuan nodded, with a determined light in his eyes.

"I will definitely win this round."

"The future of Daqin will ultimately be in my hands."

“No one can stop me.”

As the night deepened, the atmosphere in the capital became increasingly tense.

The lights in Hu Hai's mansion were bright, and several court officials were quietly entering his mansion.

They thought they were conspiring with Hu Hai to seize power.

But what they didn't know was that their every move had already been monitored by the Jinyiwei.

In Ying Yuan's plan, Hu Hai and these court officials were just chess pieces on the chessboard.

The one who truly controls the situation is Ying Yuan, who is standing outside the chess game.

"Hu Hai, your doom has come." Ying Yuan said in a low voice, his voice full of endless coldness and murderous intent.

This power struggle has reached the most critical moment.

Ying Yuan knew that his victory was just around the corner.

The future of Daqin will be decided in this game.

And he, Ying Yuan, is destined to be the winner of this game.

The night in the capital is still dark, but the storm is about to come again.

Ying Yuan stood in the center of the storm, calmly and confidently waiting for the final moment of victory.

The chess game of power will eventually be written by him.

Hu Hai, those powerful ministers, and all his opponents will be forced into desperate situations step by step by him.

Ying Yuan smiled slightly, his eyes revealing endless coldness and determination.

“The end is near.”

The night is as dark as water, and the quiet Xianyang city is now surging with undercurrents.

Ying Yuan stood in the study with a deep gaze and a solemn expression.

He knew that the situation had reached the most critical moment.

Although the remnants of Zhao Neng have collapsed, Hu Hai, the puppet once supported by Zhao Neng, has now become more dangerous than before.

Although Hu Hai was stupid, he knew very well that if he did not seize the opportunity at this time, complete failure would be waiting for him.

"Sir, the spies reported that Hu Hai has been secretly meeting with several ministers frequently recently, and they seem to be plotting something." Chen Ping said softly, breaking the silence in the room.

Ying Yuan frowned slightly and smiled coldly.

"Hu Hai finally couldn't sit still anymore."

"Zhao Neng's downfall has left him without anyone to rely on. Now he can only do it on his own."

Chen Ping nodded and continued, "Those court officials who had a secret meeting with Hu Hai were all very close to Zhao Neng before. It seems that they intend to continue to support Hu Hai in order to maintain their position in the court."

Ying Yuan sneered.

"Do they really think they can make a comeback by following Hu Hai?"

"Hu Hai is nothing but an incompetent clown and is not worth worrying about at all."

"They thought they could continue to seek power, but they didn't know they were on a dead end."

Chen Ping nodded in agreement.

"My Lord, you are right. These people are just fence-sitters. When Zhao Neng was in power, they were attached to him. Now they have turned to Hu Hai and are trying to continue to seek benefits."

"Unfortunately, they chose the wrong person this time."

"Hu Hai is simply unable to compete with the young master."

Ying Yuan narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Hu Hai is indeed not a concern, but we cannot let our guard down." "He still controls a portion of the imperial guards. Although this force is not large, if it is used at a critical moment, it is very likely to have an impact on the situation."

Chen Ping nodded in agreement, then asked, "Sir, do we need to take immediate action against Hu Hai?"

Ying Yuan pondered for a moment and shook his head.

"Now is not the best time to take action."

"Hu Hai has revealed his cards, but the real supporters behind him have not yet been fully exposed."

"What we need to do is wait for them to make a complete move, expose all their strength, and then catch them all in one fell swoop."

Chen Ping frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.

"Sir, if we continue to wait, will Hu Hai use these opportunities to gather more forces?"

Ying Yuan smiled coldly, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

"A fool like Hu Hai is simply incapable of organizing a decent counterattack."

"He is just panicking and trying to grasp at the last straw."

"Those court officials are only trying to protect themselves. They will not be truly loyal to Hu Hai."

"When they realize Hu Hai can't provide them with protection at all, they will abandon him without hesitation."

Chen Ping nodded.

"What the young master said is absolutely true."

Hu Hai indeed could not pose a real threat.

"However, we can't let Hu Hai continue like this." Ying Yuan said in a deep voice.

"He is currently trying to win over the forces in the court. We cannot afford to give him too much time."

“We must move faster.”

"It's time to end this."

There was a sharp flash in Chen Ping's eyes, and he understood what Ying Yuan meant.

"Sir, how should we act?"

Ying Yuan smiled slightly, with a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

"Let Hu Hai act first."

"What we have to do is to create an opportunity for him and let him think he still has a chance of winning."

"Then, when he was most confident, he was defeated in one fell swoop."

Chen Ping nodded and smiled appreciatively.

"Young Master is brilliant."

"Hu Hai will definitely take the bait."

Ying Yuan turned his gaze to the window, and the deep night enveloped the entire capital city.

He knew that Hu Hai's end was not far away.

Just then, a spy hurried into the study, looking nervous.

"Sir, Hu Hai's people have already started to act. They plan to launch a coup tomorrow and take control of several key locations in the capital."

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

"I am really impatient."

"Hu Hai has been completely pushed into a desperate situation. He thought this action would allow him to turn the tables."

"But he didn't know that this was exactly the trap I set for him."

Chen Ping smiled and whispered, "Sir, I'm afraid Hu Hai will be completely desperate this time."

Ying Yuan nodded, his expression grim.

"Pass the order down, all Jinyiwei will be on alert and wait for my order."

"When Hu Hai takes action, we must capture all his men as quickly as possible."

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

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

Hu Hai thought he still had a chance to turn the tables, but in fact, all his actions were under the control of Ying Yuan.

"Hu Hai won't know that every step he takes has fallen into our calculations." Chen Ping said softly, with a hint of sneer in his tone.

Ying Yuan nodded coldly. (End of this chapter)
