Xianyang Palace of the Great Qin Dynasty.
The First Emperor was diligently correcting the memorials. Although the memorials written on bamboo slips were very exquisite, they were still heavy. A huge balance device was already piled with bamboo slips.
At some point, a servant walked in and said,"Your Majesty, the 12th Young Master has returned. He is requesting an audience outside the main hall." The First Emperor raised his head slightly and said,"Your Majesty, the 12th Young Master is back." Let him in."
Ying Xi slowly walked in. Seeing that the First Emperor was ignoring him, he wasn't in a hurry. He stood at the side, bowed, and waited quietly. The First Emperor approved for another two hours. When the last bamboo slip was placed on the balance, the balance mechanism was activated with a click, and the sound of bells and chimes continued.
He raised his head and asked,"How long have you been here?" Ying Xi smiled and said,"I just arrived." The First Emperor snorted coldly."It's already been two hours, but you say you just arrived?”，Ying Xi rubbed his nose." Imperial Father is wise. I have indeed been here for two hours. However, Imperial Father is busy with official matters and has no free time. Your son cannot share Imperial Father's worries, so I am naturally not in a hurry to wait."
" You're quite patient, but I heard you were injured," Ying Xi said." The sword is a lethal weapon. Fighting with the world's first-rate lethal weapon naturally requires one to bear the corresponding risks. However, fortunately, I didn't fail Imperial Father's request. The City of Traps changed hands, and the Mo family was also escorted to the capital by your son."
"Escort? Perhaps not? I heard that you are very polite to these traitors?”，Ying Xi said," How can being escorted by a prisoner carriage with tendons and meridians sealed be considered a courtesy? However, if it's of value, then it's another matter." His expression was filled with infectious confidence.
"Is that what you think? However, Great Qin already ruled the world, so there was no need to compromise,"Ying Xi said."Great Qin can easily destroy visible enemies, but invisible enemies are difficult to subdue. Forgiveness is not weakness; things that cannot be conquered by iron and blood can be conquered by theory. Only by giving people hope can they turn their own principles into the laws of nature, and if they follow the laws of nature, they will naturally be able to survive. Otherwise, Great Qin would have a sense of justice and unparalleled Cavalry, and it would naturally be able to sweep through the world. Great Qin has created a new era, and this new era is testing Great Qin."
These words made sense. The First Emperor couldn't help but sigh." Some people say that I am cruel and immoral. What kind of person do you think I am?”，Ying Xi said,"Father is the greatest Emperor, but this greatness is only for Father alone. The entire Great Qin isn't Great Qin anymore." The First Emperor's mind was extremely sharp.
"Our Great Qin will have thousands of generations!" "Father, if the rulers of Great Qin are like you, they will naturally be fine. It's just that father is an unprecedented emperor, and it's difficult for others to compare."
"Humph!" The First Emperor snorted coldly, but he also let out a long sigh."You and I are father and son, so there's no need to talk about this. However, the Mo family's traitor cannot be forgiven." Ying Xi said,"I'm not going to forgive you."" Your son is threatening them with his life. I can't make them surrender. They value something more than life and death." The First Emperor frowned."These traitors aren't afraid of death? Then we'll cut the grass and eliminate the roots!"
" Father, if someone can resist your rule without fear of death, then this is the most dangerous sign. Rebellion for benefits is nothing, but resistance for ideals and some illusory reasons is the most terrifying. Father's million strong army might not be able to eliminate this kind of thought, but your son can."
The First Emperor's eyes widened slightly." Are you going to use the so-called Mo Academy to check this trend?”，" Legalism can put an end to the chaotic world, but it can't make the world feel at ease," Ying Xi said." The empire has annexed the world, but there are some political strategies that need to be changed."Over the past few years, You've been writing for Us, and We can see your thoughts. However, Great Qin doesn't need to compromise."
Ying Xi secretly scratched his head. He had already thought of handling the law, but the First Emperor was too superstitious about Qin's strategy. As the saying goes, there were big and big difficulties. When Qin was a small country, its political strategy was naturally very efficient. However, once it became a big country, some things would become tyranny if they were not changed. This was also a major reason for Qin's destruction.
" Alright, my son has just returned. The Mo Family will deal with him according to your plan for now, but there will definitely be objections in the court," Ying Xi said hurriedly." Father, don't worry. I will make these voices disappear." The First Emperor nodded lightly.
"Where did Ge Nia and him go?" Ying Xi's heart sank."Imperial Father, when I led my men to attack the City of Traps, Ge Nia had already left. I killed Yan Dan and searched the entire City of Traps, but I couldn't find the two of them. However, I later interrogated the Mo Family. After Ge Nia and he went to the City of Traps, they became good friends with the rebels of the Xiang Family in Chu. Later, Wei Zhuang was heavily injured in the City of Traps and was saved by Mo. When I attacked, I was taken away by the rebels of the Xiang Family. Then, on my way back, I plotted to defeat the rebels of the Xiang Family. The Xiang family suffered heavy casualties, and perhaps Ge Nia and the others had already died in the chaos.
" Alright, I don't want to hear any more about this matter. I'll leave this matter to you to handle, so you may leave now." Ying Xi rubbed his nose and was about to leave when Ying Zheng suddenly said,"" You have done well in this operation, so you should be rewarded." Ying Xi let out a sigh of relief. Even he was exhausted from answering in front of the First Emperor." I thank you, Father, for your reward. I will take my leave." Then, he turned around and left.
Looking at his receding figure, the First Emperor remained silent."Your Majesty, are you satisfied with the actions of the 12th Young Master?" Suddenly, a voice appeared in the hall."Lord Wu An is quite satisfied with him." The old man in the hall was Lord Wu An, Baiqi.
" With such an outstanding successor, I'm naturally very satisfied," the First Emperor said."He is indeed outstanding. He has never gone out of the palace before, but this time, he has changed the entire Jianghu. The giant hand has turned the river into mud and sand. The Mo family and the Xiang family have almost been wiped out. The empire appears calm on the surface, but there are many undercurrents. I don't know where the Mengchong Warship is heading.
The hall was always solemn. Baiqi said," He's decisive but not murderous, meticulous but not sinister, powerful but not overbearing. It's not impossible for such a person to control such an empire." The First Emperor knew that Baiqi was completely dedicated to the empire and did not have any selfish motives. If it was someone else, saying such words would be a great sin.
Looking at the First Emperor pacing back and forth, Baiqi said,"" This old subject has overstepped his boundaries," the First Emperor said." Lord Wu 'an is right. He is indeed outstanding, but I will make the decision myself. Lord Wu' an, you don't have to say anything more." Bai Qi sighed and did not say anything else. The hall fell silent again.
Ruyi Lane in Xianyang City.
"This is the residence I have chosen for everyone.”，Everyone from the Mo family looked around. There were pavilions surrounded by green willows, and they were tall and majestic.
Thief Zhi's movements were swift. Even though his inner energy was sealed, his movements were still extremely fast. In just a moment, he had already looked around."This place has a good scenery. You're quite generous, kid, to actually let us stay in such a good place." Ying Xi smiled and said,"This is a good place."" This is the second Small Sage Manor. How could Ying Xi not be careful?"
" The second Small Sage Manor?" The people of the Mo Family carefully understood his words. They seemed to have understood why he had to bring the people of the Mo Family here. The reason was in this sentence.
Gao Jianli said,"The 12th Young Master is ambitious. It's just that the Mohist school advocates universal love and not aggression, but it won't become the Empire's sword." Ying Xi said,"" I won't let you become swords. I want to be the mouth of freedom. The thoughts of the Mo Family will be passed down and will truly become a part of the empire, the flesh and blood of the empire." Everyone from the Mo Family looked at him in a daze. They did not know whether to be grateful or resentful, but they could only follow his thoughts and enter this unpredictable place!
