Chat group: In Daqin, Dongjun brought happiness to us

"I ask you, what is the reason that makes you hate my Great Qin so deeply? As for whether you are wronged, you know it, and I know it too. Now that I am speaking frankly, with your cunning mind, can't you guess that I already know everything?"

Zhao Gao's cries of injustice came to an abrupt end.

After a moment of silence, Zhao Gao raised his head, and there was no trace of the previous panic and cautiousness between his brows.

A pair of gloomy eyes revealed a chilling resentment.

Zhao Gao stared at Ying Zheng and said, "Your Majesty, I have no idea how you knew my thoughts. Unfortunately, my years of planning will be in vain. However, Your Majesty's hope of learning everything from me is wishful thinking. Your Majesty, please live the rest of your life in fear and suspicion of me! Hahahaha..."

Zhao Gao's arrogance scared Li Si and Hu Hai so much that they almost wet their pants.

Especially Hu Hai, who felt like he was dreaming at this moment.

Faced with Zhao Gao's venting rhetoric, Ying Zheng strangely calmed down. Taking two steps back, he gave Zhao Gao a deep look. Then, waving his hand, he said, "Mr. Gai Nie, take Zhao Gao away! Tomorrow, after his identity is verified, I will have Zhao Gao's entire clan torn to pieces outside the Xianyang Palace. Zhao Gao himself will be cut into pieces!"

Even Gai Nie, who heard the order, was stunned.

In fact, in the pre-Qin era, the most severe punishment was only quartering. Even the extermination of three generations of the family was, to a certain extent, considered a wide range of consequences.

But Ying Zheng not only wanted to have Zhao Gao's entire clan torn to pieces, but he also wanted to have Zhao Gao himself executed by being cut into pieces. This was simply challenging the bottom line of the world.

Although human rights are not important in this era, criminals will have even less sympathy.

However, the Qin State itself was denounced as a tiger and wolf country by the six states of Shandong because of its harsh criminal laws. If another close minister of the Qin King, Zhao Gao, appeared, he would be executed by being cut into pieces.

I'm afraid the whole world will regard the King of Qin as an unprecedented tyrant.

"Your Majesty!" Gai Nie bowed to Ying Zheng almost subconsciously, ready to plead for Zhao Gao. He wasn't thinking about Zhao Gao, but about Ying Zheng's reputation. A king who didn't want his loyalty was a tyrant.

However, at the moment when Gai Nie bowed, Zhao Gao's figure suddenly shot up like an arrow and headed straight for Ying Zheng.

Zhao Gao obviously took the risk.

After all, his true identity was exposed by Ying Zheng, and all three clans were doomed to have a bad end. In such a situation, what else did Zhao Gao have to worry about?

Assassinating the king and killing the emperor would be a win-win for him. After all, if he could really fight to the death and kill the King of Qin, it would be a great honor for Zhao Gao.

Seeing Zhao Gao approaching, Gai Nie reacted but didn't even have time to draw his sword.

In truth, Zhao Gao's strength was beyond Gai Nie's expectations. Although Gai Nie had known for a long time that Zhao Gao possessed considerable strength, he had never imagined that Zhao Gao's strength could be so powerful that even he couldn't react.

Ever since joining the Qin Dynasty and becoming the swordsmanship teacher of King Ying Zheng of Qin, Gai Nie has always had a bad impression of Zhao Gao.

After all, Gai Nie was a descendant of Guiguzi Zongheng. What about Zhao Gao? He was just a eunuch.

At this moment, Gai Nie's impression of Zhao Gao was completely refreshed.

This guy, who usually behaves cautiously and servilely, actually has such terrifying strength.

Even Gai Nie, who believed that if he was not careful and faced the situation of Ying Zheng at the moment, even if he could survive, he would definitely be seriously injured by Zhao Gao.

Seeing Zhao Gao approaching.

Beside Ying Zheng, a seal with a missing corner and patched with gold suddenly flew up. In an instant, it shone brightly.

The moment this light burst out, both Zhao Gao, who was the first to be hit, and Gai Nie, who was standing beside them, changed their expressions and spit out large mouthfuls of blood with a "wow" sound.

What's worse, after Zhao Gao and Gai Nie fell to the ground, they didn't even have the strength to move a finger.

Feeling the strange fluctuations of heat and cold in his body, which suddenly caused him to riot and drive himself crazy, Zhao Gao weakly raised his head and looked at Ying Zheng with a stern face.

"Your Majesty is very resourceful... This servant... I never knew that Great Qin actually possessed such a rare treasure. With such a seal at your disposal, I'm afraid all warriors in the world are nothing but livestock to be slaughtered before Your Majesty, right?"

Hearing Zhao Gao's words, Gai Nie's face suddenly turned ugly.

Although he recognized the seal as the one Ying Zheng had obtained from Ying An not long ago, Gai Nie had never known that the power unleashed from this seal could actually cause all warriors' true qi to surge, leading to demonic possession.

The existence of such a seal can be said to be a huge threat to any warrior in the world.

Ying Zheng smiled coldly and said, "Do you think that the only thing I rely on is this national seal?"

Perhaps because he knew that he no longer had any chance to struggle, Zhao Gao became much calmer at this moment.

"Is there anything your Majesty doesn't know?"

Zhao Gao looked at Ying Zheng with a half-smile and said, "Even Your Majesty, I'm afraid you may not understand me as well as I do!!"

"Really?" Ying Zheng's face was gloomy.

Zhao Gao was indeed deeply in love with Ying Zheng. He even had a wonderful magic trick that could imitate Ying Zheng's handwriting in the future.

To some extent, Zhao Gao's calligraphy skills were not even inferior to Li Si's. You know, Li Si was the one who could write the eight characters "Under the Heshi Bi, Receiving the Mandate from Heaven, Longevity and Eternal Prosperity".

The moment Ying Zheng finished speaking, Gai Nie, whose breath was also disordered due to the outburst of true energy, suddenly let the long sword in his hand fly out of the scabbard with a clang.

It was as if an invisible hand was tightly grasping the hilt of the sword, with the tip of the sword pointing directly at Zhao Gao.

"Now do you think you understand me?"

"Hahaha..." Zhao Gao laughed heartily. "My defeat was well deserved. I never imagined that the King could have mastered such a profound sword-controlling technique without anyone knowing."

Ying Zheng thought for a moment and put the sword back into the scabbard in Gai Nie's hand. Then he said, "Mr. Gai Nie, how is it?"

"Ahem... Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty!" Gai Nie coughed twice, calmed his breath, and said, "I'm fine!"

Ying Zheng nodded slightly and said, "Please, sir, take Zhao Gao away! I don't want anything to happen to Zhao Gao before tomorrow's execution."

"I obey your command!" Gai Nie bowed and stepped forward quickly. He used the secret method of the diplomats to cut off Zhao Gao's tendons and veins, turning him into a completely immobile cripple.

After doing all this, Gai Nie dragged Zhao Gao out of the room.

After Gai Nie left, Ying Zheng finally looked at Li Si and Hu Hai.

Unlike his decisiveness towards Zhao Gao, in Ying Zheng's eyes, although Li Si had committed an unforgivable crime, he was also a talented person.

Unfortunately, Li Si was blinded by power and ultimately fell into the hands of Zhao Gao, who not only destroyed the Qin Dynasty but also exterminated his entire clan. This is a classic case of bringing disaster upon oneself.

Although he did not intend to kill Li Si like Zhao Gao, it was impossible for Ying Zheng to have much trust in Li Si now.

Besides, don't forget that the reason why Ying Zheng trusted Li Si in the future was because Han Fei died in Qin. But now, Han Fei is still alive.

With Han Fei around, Ying Zheng would never have much trust in Li Si.

"Li Si!!"

Li shuddered when he heard Ying Zheng's voice. You know, Ying Zheng had just mentioned Zhao Gao's name, and what was the result?

Zhao Gao will play Match-3 tomorrow. Even he himself will be sentenced to an unprecedented punishment of being cut into pieces.

Now that Ying Zheng has finally called him out by name, how can Li Si not be afraid?

"I'm here!!"

This time, Ying Zheng didn't directly announce Li Si's punishment. Instead, after a long silence, he said, "Li Si, you are a man of talent and learning. Unfortunately, your talent lacks virtue. For the future stability of the Qin Dynasty, from today on, you will serve at the residence of Prince Ying An!"

After a slight pause, Ying Zheng said, "By the way, you will personally pass on the order. Since Zhao Gao has been captured by me, the network he holds will also be handed over to Prince Ying An!"

Li Si felt as if he had been pardoned and kowtowed in haste to express his gratitude.

"Although I have sent you to serve in the mansion of Young Master Ying An, I have also reserved a place for you in the imperial court!"

Ying Zheng's last words were definitely a pleasant surprise for Li Si.

Although the time was short, Ying Zheng's arrangement for Li Si was well thought out.

In his opinion, the biggest reason why Li Si chose Zhao Gao in the future was that Li Si had already become the representative of the Legalists in the Qin court at that time.

But Fusu was a staunch believer in Confucianism.

Once Fusu came to power, it was clear that he would abolish Legalism and promote Confucianism. Even if Li Si himself did not want to cooperate with Zhao Gao, the Legalist ministers in the court would push him in one direction or another.

Because Li Si had no choice at all. Unless he was willing to give up the wealth and glory he had worked so hard for half his life.

But now, Ying Zheng had sent Li Si to serve under Ying An. This was equivalent to cutting off Li Si's future options. He could only follow Ying An down the road.

In this way, there is no need to worry about the damage that Li Si may cause to the Qin Dynasty in the future.

Waving his hand, Ying Zheng said, "Li Si, you can go down! Remember to hand the net to An'er."

Li Si was so excited that he almost cried. He kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty...I will take my leave!!"

After Li Si left, Ying Zheng looked at Hu Hai for a long time, but he did not speak.

Chapter 147: Let Ying Zheng's descendants be completely extinct! The loneliness of the king!

Tiger poison does not eat children.

Although the future Hu Hai did indeed do something that was outrageous to both heaven and earth, and even intolerable to Ying Zheng, before that, among his many sons, besides Ying An, it was only through Hu Hai that Ying Zheng could feel a sense of being a father.

After looking at Hu Hai with a complicated expression for a long time, Ying Zheng finally sighed.

Hu Hai, who had been listening attentively to Ying Zheng's movements, fearing that he would end up like his teacher Zhao Gao, was overjoyed when he heard this sigh.

In Hu Hai's memory, no matter what trouble he had caused, as long as he tried to please his father, his father would at most sigh, scold him, or at most give him a beating.

At this moment, Hu Hai thought that this time would be the same.

"Hu Hai!!"

Ying Zheng's voice reached his ears. Hu Hai knelt on the ground and crawled towards Ying Zheng, saying, "Your son is here. Father... Father, your son knows he was wrong. From now on, I will never listen to my teacher... or Zhao Gao again!"

Ying Zheng smiled and said, "It's alright! It's my fault. I failed to see Zhao Gao's evil ambitions. You were influenced by Zhao Gao, and I don't blame you!"

Hu Hai was overjoyed and burst into tears, crying and saying, "Thank you, father. Thank you, father. I will be a good boy and obey you from now on!"

Although he was reluctant in his heart, Ying Zheng experienced betrayal along the way before becoming the greatest emperor of all time.

During Ying Zheng's growth, Lu Buwei, his younger brother Cheng Jiao, his mother Zhao Ji... almost everyone close to him betrayed him.

To a certain extent, Ying Zheng can be said to have completely cut off all ties with his family.

Having become accustomed to the betrayal of his closest relatives, Ying Zheng has long been able to make truly beneficial decisions between emotion and reason.

The treatment of Hu Hai was no exception.

Beneath his seemingly kind and loving father's appearance, he hides a terrifying murderous intent that even makes Gai Nie, who has just returned, feel uneasy.

"I can forgive your trust in Zhao Gao. But I cannot accept it! Hu Hai, you are my son. Your stupidity not only insults yourself, but also tarnishes me!"

Ying Zheng's words were extremely harsh, but his tone was so gentle that Hu Hai really thought Ying Zheng was going to let him go.

Just as Hu Hai raised his head, crying and laughing.

Outside the door, Gai Nie's sword suddenly flew from its sheath. The long sword, gleaming with a cold, cold light, instantly pierced Hu Hai's neck!

As blood gushed out, Hu Hai looked at Ying Zheng in disbelief.

In just a short moment, Hu Hai died completely in front of Ying Zheng! !

Taking the long sword controlled by his spirit, Ying Zheng reached out and gently wiped the blood off the blade. Then he swung his hand.

The long sword suddenly flew towards Gai Nie.

After Gai Nie took the sword, Ying Zheng said, "Gai Nie! Pass on my command! Hu Hai's behavior is immoral and has brought disgrace upon our family; he shall be put to death! Hu Ji's poor parenting skills shall also be put to death!"

Since he even killed Hu Hai with his own hands, Ying Zheng naturally would not leave Hu Ji as a hidden danger.

Gai Nie sheathed his sword and hesitated for a moment. Although he wanted to advise Ying Zheng, after such a long time of contact with him, he could feel the determination in Ying Zheng's heart.

This is a statement that cannot be refuted at all!!

"I obey the decree!!"

Under the quiet night, a secret purge was launched in the palace of the Qin Dynasty.

In Ying An's mansion.

Gazing towards the Xianyang Palace, Ying An sighed softly and said, "He truly deserves to be the greatest emperor of all time. Even when faced with the wrath of the future, he still maintains a rational judgment!"

In Ying An's view, Ying Zheng killed Hu Hai to clean up the family. After all, Hu Hai's behavior in the future was indeed challenging Ying Zheng's bottom line. It was not only because Hu Hai brutally killed all his brothers and sisters, making Ying Zheng's family completely extinct.

Moreover, it was because of Hu Hai's foolishness that the powerful Qin Dynasty fell apart in just a few years. He also listened to the advice of Zhao Gao, a man with ulterior motives.

Killing Zhao Gao was purely to eliminate future troubles. To this end, they even went so far as to exterminate Zhao Gao's three clans, all of whom were torn to pieces by chariots. Zhao Gao was even subjected to an unprecedented punishment of being cut into pieces.

Letting Li Si go was also a rational decision.

After all, although Li Si committed a serious crime in the future, his crime was not unavoidable.

Hu Hai and Zhao Gao, one is hopelessly stupid, the other is hopelessly evil. Both must die, and their roots must be eradicated.

But Li Si was different. He was forced to do so. He was reluctant to give up his wealth and glory, and because he was the prime minister, he had countless Legalist officials in the court behind him, pushing him down a path of no return.

Even so, Li Si would never have the chance to be reused in the future in Ying Zheng's heart. As for becoming the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, it was absolutely impossible.

Ying An was not too concerned about Ying Zheng handing over Luowang, a killer organization famous in the seven kingdoms, to him.
