Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!

After all, it was a close combat, and the opponents were all warriors, fighting for their lives, and even risking their lives to cut Gao Yao. Because it was in the mansion, Gao Yao naturally would not wear armor, so injuries were inevitable.

However, they were just some superficial injuries, nothing more than a few knife cuts. Gao Yao was too lazy to use medical skills for such injuries. He just cleaned them up and applied some medicine. However, Lu Zhi and the other women were very worried.

"No problem"

"How can that be possible? Someone, go get some medicine for the trauma."

"Here"

At this time, Lu Zhi also had a worried look on her face. She immediately ordered her servants to bring medicines, while Lu Su and others began to help Gao Yao undress and clean his wounds.

After a busy time, it took a full quarter of an hour to treat Gao Yao's wound. Although Gao Yao, who had the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sutra, would not be in any trouble even if he did not treat it, for peace of mind, Gao Yao did not stop these women from tormenting him.

"Husband, there is something I think may be related to tonight's assassination."

"Oh?"

Just when Gao Yao closed his eyes and thought, Lu Zhi's words directly attracted Gao Yao's attention. The other party could do this, there must be an insider in the mansion. This insider knew all of Gao Yao's daily habits, and the key was that he could enter and leave Gao Yao's mansion freely.

Gao Yao was not so suspicious of everyone. After all, if the other party could really do this, then there would be no need for him to do anything more. Gao Yao was completely under the other party's surveillance. Why should Gao Yao fight with the other party? He might as well just wait to die.

"Is it possible that what happened today is related to Zhao Tuo?"

"Zhao Tuo?"

After hearing what Lü Zhi said, Gao Yao was slightly stunned. He didn't understand how this matter could be related to Zhao Tuo.

"My husband, please don't forget that Zhao Tuo has been in the southern border for a longer time than you, my husband. Now under your governance, the people in the southern border live and work in peace and contentment, and the barriers between the original Nanyue people and the people of the Qin Dynasty have basically disappeared. Even a woman like me can see this, can't ordinary people see it?"

"After Zhao Tuo was placed under house arrest by my husband in the county city, he has been very honest and has not made any moves. He rarely goes out every day, but he comes to visit my husband every few days. Isn't this strange? Logically speaking, Zhao Tuo should hate my husband the most at this time. If someone wants to harm my husband and wants to find someone in Nanjun who is willing to cooperate with him, I'm afraid there is no one else who can do that."

After listening to Lu Zhi's analysis, Gao Yao immediately began to understand that it was indeed the case. He actually forgot about Zhao Tuo. The other party had been in the southern border for such a long time, and he had been monitoring Gao Yao before Gao Yao had the power he has now.

Gao Yao originally thought that the situation was over and Zhao Tuo would not fail to see the situation clearly. Now it seems that Zhao Tuo is really patient enough. No matter what, the other party still holds the title of deputy commander of the southern border. Once Gao Yao encounters any accident, Zhao Tuo will still be the one in charge of power. The other party now occupies this title. He really overlooked this point.

Zhao Tuo has always been too stable, so Gao Yao has ignored this guy. If it is Zhao Tuo, there is indeed such a possibility.

"My lord, a secret passage was found in the yard."

At this time, the voice of the personal guard suddenly appeared outside the door. Gao Yao, who heard this, was about to get up and go to check.

"Someone, help the ladies go back to rest."

"Here"

Before leaving, Gao Yao asked someone to take Lu Zhi and others to rest first, and he went to the mansion to check the situation in person.

On the other side, in Zhao Tuo's mansion, Zhao Tuo heard the occasional sound of horse hooves outside. At this moment, Zhao Tuo was very worried. Then he looked at the figure walking in the yard, and he could no longer bear it and came to the courtyard.

"Are you ready?"

"General, we are ready. However, the search in the city is too intense. It is not appropriate for you to leave the city now. You should go to another place and wait until the storm is over."

"Okay, let's go."

Hearing that everything was ready, Zhao Tuo no longer hesitated and immediately led his family to move to one side of the mansion. There was a secret passage that had been dug long ago, which led directly to the outside.

Zhao Tuo knew that the plan had failed when he heard the noise outside. Zhao Tuo's IQ was not low at all. After all, he was able to create the Nanyue Kingdom in the later period. How could he have a low IQ? When Zhao Tuo heard the noise outside, he knew that the assassination plan had failed. After all, if the assassination plan was successful, it would definitely not be the case that they would hunt for the assassin throughout the whole process. Instead, they would definitely choose to lure the enemy without firing a shot.

Zhao Tuo was also very clear that after the assassination failed, even if he could hide for a while, he could not hide forever. It would not be long before Gao Ruo would suspect him. There was no doubt about this. It was just a matter of time. What Zhao Tuo had to do now was to escape and leave the southern border. Otherwise, if he stayed, his whole family would really die.

Just a few minutes after Zhao Tuo and his family left through the tunnel, the gate of Zhao Tuo's mansion was forcibly opened, and Gao Yao rushed into Zhao Tuo's mansion on his warhorse.

"Search for me!"

Following Gao Yao's order, a large number of soldiers poured into Zhao Tuo's mansion and began to search for Zhao Tuo's whereabouts. In the end, they only captured a few maids and servants.

"My lord, Zhao Tuo is not found, even his family members are missing."

"Search, search the whole city immediately. As for these few people who can't tell the whereabouts of Zhao Tuo, kill them all."

"Here"

Gao Yao just doesn't like to get angry normally, because it's easy to make mistakes when you lose your mind, but this doesn't mean that Gao Yao will never get angry, or that he is not a cruel person. Soon Gao Yao left Zhao Tuo's mansion, and then a large number of soldiers poured into Zhao Tuo's mansion.

"Search, turn everything upside down to find out how Zhao Tuo left."

"Here"

Just now in the mansion, Gao Yao had discovered that the way these assassins entered his mansion was that they used the tunnel to sneak directly into the demolished house, and then assassinated several personal soldiers inside the mansion. After that, they were going to assassinate Gao Yao, but Gao Yao discovered the clue by accident. Otherwise, he would have been ambushed and killed the moment Gao Yao left the courtyard!
