Qin Dynasty: Your Majesty, I really am a time traveler.

He kept calling out in the prison, partly out of fear of death, and partly because he genuinely wanted to verify the truth of the news with Ying Zheng.

Tang Yu looked at him and spoke at that moment.

"Zhao Gao, what you have done is completely aimed at overthrowing the foundation of the Qin Dynasty. The efforts of seven wise rulers, including His Majesty, have been destroyed by you alone. Your crimes are simply heinous!"

Zhao Gao felt the undisguised killing intent emanating from Tang Yu, as if he were facing a dark and bottomless abyss, which made him swallow hard.

"Moreover, I, Tang Yu, will definitely change the future of the Qin state. At that time, General Meng's ideas will coincide with my own."

"Killing all those who could affect the future would also solve the problem from another angle. After all, there's no one else in Qin who would dare to tamper with the imperial edict and put Huhai on the throne!"

Tang Yu realized that he had indeed been making some assumptions or overthinking things.

He simply felt that if he killed those key figures, the changes in history would become even more uncontrollable.

However, he realized that he had overlooked a fact: heroes can also shape the times!

For example, even if other eunuchs replaced Zhao Gao after he killed Zhao Gao, he would not have Zhao Gao's ideas, nor would he have the courage to support Hu Hai to the throne!

Therefore, Zhao Gao's existence was an indispensable part of the whole event, and perhaps no one else could have replaced him. The same applies to Xiang Yu, Liu Bang, and others.

If he were to kill all these people, even if some of them rebelled in the future, they would not be as brave and unparalleled as Xiang Yu, nor as good at recognizing and utilizing talent as Liu Bang, and the future would certainly be different.

This is a basic logic and rule.

"No, you can't kill me! I am the Chief of the Imperial Carriage Office, appointed by His Majesty. You have no right to kill me! I want to see His Majesty!"

Hearing Zhao Gao's panicked cries, Tang Yu glanced at him with a disdainful smile on his lips.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Gao, wake up! If His Majesty wanted to save you, he would have done so long ago!"

"After all, Li Si has been reinstated and returned to the court, but what you have done is worlds apart from what Li Si has done!"

Even crimes of treason have varying degrees of severity and urgency!

Zhao Gao stared wide-eyed, wanting to speak, but could only stammer.

At this moment, Meng Tian had already taken the key from Tang Yu and opened the cell door. Zhao Gao was huddled in the corner, shouting incessantly.

"Your Majesty! I want to see Your Majesty!"

Tang Yu glanced at Meng Tian, ​​and the two exchanged a look before preparing to make their move, as Zhao Gao now seemed to be completely crippled.

To their surprise, a steady set of footsteps came from behind them.

"Zhao Gao, didn't you want to see me? I've come!"

Tang Yu turned around and looked back, his eyes filled with shock.

"Hey, Zheng-ge, why are you up so early? I thought you'd have some more time!"

Meng Tian, ​​standing beside Tang Yu, glanced at Ying Zheng and couldn't help but feel a little guilty, so he quickly bowed.

"Meng Tian greets Your Majesty."

“When I was in the treatment chamber, I actually heard everything you two said. As soon as the treatment ended, I followed in your footsteps to this prison.”

"Can Brother Zheng hear me??"

No, buddy!!!

Looking at Meng Tian's tearful expression beside him, Tang Yu looked up at the sky.

This dungeon is really deep!

He hadn't expected to be able to hear what was happening outside from inside the medical pod.

"Your Majesty, I misspoke. Please punish me!"

Meng Tian then knelt before Ying Zheng to be punished, because he had indeed said some inappropriate things at that time.

Ying Zheng's eyes fell on him, his pupils showing a hint of admiration.

"No, you are not wrong. You are telling the truth. Why should I punish you?"

"As for Mr. Tang, my first treatment is over, but this medical pod tells me that I need about 20 more treatments. I'll leave the subsequent treatments to Mr. Tang."

20 times? It seems that Brother Zheng has a lot of toxins accumulating in his body!

Tang Yu nodded.

"Don't worry, Brother Zheng, I'll definitely heal you!"

A knowing smile appeared on Ying Zheng's face, but it vanished instantly when he turned around and saw Zhao Gao.

"That beast has truly betrayed my trust!!"

A surge of furious anger welled up inside him, and he glared at Zhao Gao through gritted teeth.

If we were to rank the people he hated most among the sorcerers, Zhao Gao would definitely be second!

"Zhao Gao, didn't you want to see Guan Ren? Now that I'm here, what do you want to say to me?"

"Your Majesty, minister..."

Zhao Gao was about to speak when he found himself speechless, because Tang Yu's actions and his own thoughts were exactly the same.

The same things that happened in the future were indeed done by him, whether it was altering the will to force Fusu to commit suicide, or letting Huhai ascend the throne and then killing Ying Zheng's children, each of which was a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of his family!

"I knew before that you had other intentions, but if you are truly serving my Great Qin, then it is not unreasonable to tolerate these things."

"How could you do such a heartless and despicable thing? You deserve to die ten thousand times over!"

"Your Majesty, I was wrong, Your Majesty!"

"Besides, that's something that happened in the future and hasn't happened yet. Wasn't Li Si pardoned by His Majesty?"

Zhao Gao knelt on the ground and kept begging for mercy. Hearing Zhao Gao's words, Ying Zheng became even more furious.

He never expected that Zhao Gao, who had been protecting him all along, would repay him by killing his entire family.

"Zhao Gao, are these your last words?"

Ying Zheng did not respond to Zhao Gao's words, but simply watched Zhao Gao speak indifferently, his eyes filled with indifference.

Seeing that he really couldn't survive, Zhao Gao simply stopped pretending, straightened up and looked at Ying Zheng, his pupils filled with anger and resentment.

"Ying Zheng, why are you the emperor, high above all others, while I must become a eunuch to survive? Why can you have a house full of children and grandchildren, while I have no descendants left?" (Zhao Gao actually had descendants, probably born before he entered the palace.)

"Ying Zheng, let me tell you, even without me, Zhao Gao, the Qin state would still be overthrown. At that time, none of your descendants will be able to escape the disaster; they will all have to go down to join you!"

"Hahaha, Ying Zheng, you can kill me, but can you kill Huhai too? Does that mean he won't be involved in the future rebellion? Ying Zheng, you tyrant, you deserve to die a horrible death!"

Despite Zhao Gao's words, Ying Zheng's eyes showed no sign of anger; he simply turned his head and nodded to Meng Tian.

"kill him."
