"The truth from back then?" Eight different voices sounded at the same time, which sounded very strange.
"The source of everything is one person, and that person is Lu Buwei.”
Ying Cheng had already obtained the information from that year. With his control over the State of Qin, that year was no longer a secret.
"Impossible." Zhen Hou kicked the table over." He saved me. If it wasn't for Xiang Bang, I would have become a ghost."”
"Is that so? Who was the one who gave you the idea back then? Who was the one who asked you to ask Brother Zheng for military power? Who was the one who persuaded you to defect?”
Ying Cheng stood up and asked three questions in a row.
"No, no, impossible."
Because of Ying Cheng's arrival, it was impossible for the rumors that Ying Zheng was actually Lu Buwei's illegitimate son to spread like in history.
However, the Brocade Guard had found out that there was a conversation in the palace of the State of Qin. It was this conversation that led to the Cheng Jiao Case, and the two people who talked were Lu Buwei and Cheng Jiao.
It was also from this point that Cheng Jiao began to ask Ying Zheng for military power. In the past, it was also Cheng Jiao who requested to lead troops to reinforce Meng Ao and Zhang Tang's troops.
It was Lu Buwei who convinced Ying Zheng to agree.
At the beginning, Lu Buwei had set up a shocking trap for Cheng Jiao, luring him into it step by step. In the end, Cheng Jiao was even grateful to him.
"Back then, I was in seclusion and didn't see the person you sent? After that, the Jinyiwei didn't find out that your people had entered Xianyang, but the people they sent to kill you were all from the net. Can't you guess? As for General Bi, he had been promoted by Lu Buwei.”
Back then, most of the net was in Lu Buwei's hands, and even if Ying Zheng wanted to control it, he had to go through Lu Buwei's hands.
The huge organization that was woven in the shadows of the seven countries was naturally not built overnight. It was built bit by bit since Shang Yang's reform.
However, Lu Buwei was from a business family, and his wealth was enough to rival a country's. It was with the help of this financial network that he recruited a large number of wandering swordsmen and assassins.
This was also the reason why Ying Cheng kept Lu Buwei.
But now, Lu Buwei was no longer in charge of the net, and Ying Cheng's forces were already within the net.
"What good does Lu Buwei get from killing me? Why does he want to kill me?”Zhen Hou questioned.
Back then, with Lu Buwei's loyalty, Ying Cheng did not think that far ahead. He thought that Lu Buwei had killed Cheng Jiao to stabilize Ying Zheng's throne.
It seemed that this was far from the case. It turned out that Lu Buwei had already prepared a backup plan back then.
"If Little Brother Zheng and I meet with an accident, who do you think is more suitable to be Lu Buwei's puppet than Zhenhou Chengjiao, a member of the Eight Petites?”Ying Cheng asked.
"Is what you said true?"
Every time the Eight Petites killed a person, their souls would be imprisoned in the cage of the Eight Petites, making them one of them.
Zhen Hou, who had become one of the Eight Petites, naturally couldn't escape from this cage.
If he really ascended the throne like Ying Cheng had said, then the entire Qin State would be under Lu Buwei's control.
"What do you think?"
"Ah!" They all remembered the fact that they had died long ago. Zhen Hou, who had learned the truth, could no longer maintain his Eight Petites state.
"Elder brother, help me, no, help the Qin State get rid of Lu Buwei.”Zhen Hou said loudly before disappearing.
"Anyone who dares to stop Great Qin will be crushed.”
The seven figures of the Eight Petites advanced and disappeared, leaving only Qian Sha standing where he was.
"Marquis Bi Jian, you are indeed very smart. I finished them off with just two words, but one of the Eight Petites was the original body, and that was me. I killed them.”
"The order I received was to kill you at all costs. I'm curious if it would be interesting to have you among the Eight Petites.”
Qian Sha stepped on the overturned table, his sword still unsheathed.
To the Network, there were only missions.
If the higher-ups wanted to kill Ying Cheng, they would do so. Even if they requested to kill Ying Zheng, they would still brandish their sharp claws and teeth.
"Heavenly Slaughter and Earthly Extinction, Demons and Monsters, you want to kill me with just a Kill-level?”
"How can he be enough?"
The temperature of the entire building dropped rapidly, and the cold air from outside began to seep in.
