Not far away, on a tall building.
Eight people of different shapes and sizes, dressed in strange clothes, were watching the massacre in Marquis Changxin's mansion.
"It seems that we are late. This Marquis Wu is really fast. I'm afraid he will kill us the moment we meet!”A little girl among the eight frowned and said,
"That youth with the twin hammers is the scarier one. Who among us can take one of his hammers?”
The eight of them were called the Eight Petites, and they belonged to the top assassin group of the Network. They were now under Lu Buwei's command.
"Go back and report to the Prime Minister. I'm afraid this Marquis Wu doesn't know what Miao Ai wants.”
The eight of them left in a flash and rushed toward the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Outside the mansion, Su Yi looked at the Eight Petites and then looked away.
Blood flowed like a river in the entire Marquis of Changxin's mansion. Li Yuanba walked out with his twin hammers. His entire body was covered in blood. It was as if he had been fished out of a pool of blood.
"Lord Marquis, we've killed them all!" Li Yuanba grinned.
There were a thousand diners, eight hundred slaves, and several hundred guards in the entire manor.
About 2,000 people died under Li Yuanba's golden hammer.
"Well done." Su Yi praised.
The smile on Li Yuanba's face grew even wider. His mind was limited. As long as he could get Su Yi's praise, it would be the happiest thing for him.
"The two of you, come here!" Su Yi called over the two thousand men of the Mo Saber Soldiers.
"With my order, the two of you will lead a thousand men each and kill Internal Secretary Cheng Yu and Commander Zhang Cheng of the Imperial Guards. You will be charged with colluding with Miao Ai and attempting to rebel!”Su Yi ordered.
He had not forgotten what Miao Ai had said before he died.
If all the other officials were his henchmen, then these two were his trusted aides, and they had to die!
"Yes!" The two of them received the order and each took away 1,000 Mo Saber Soldiers.
……
In the Palace of Sweet Spring, Empress Dowager Zhao was sitting in front of a bronze mirror, dressing herself up. She was already thinking about how she was going to squeeze Miao Ai dry tonight.
"Empress Dowager, a soldier outside the palace has sent a box.”A palace maid walked over and said softly.
"Which general are they?" Zhao Ji didn't mind. There were many officials in the court who gave her gifts.
"Looking at their armor and weapons, they seem to be the Mo Saber Soldiers under Marquis Wu Su Yi.”The palace maid replied.
"Oh? Marquis Wu!" Zhao Ji's eyes lit up.
"Bring it up."
A eunuch carried a box and walked up carefully. He felt that there was something wrong with the box.
There was a thick smell of blood.
"Open it and take a look. I wonder what kind of treasure this Marquis Wu has sent.”Zhao Ji smiled and asked the young eunuch to open the box.
"Yes, sir!" Trembling, the eunuch opened the box, revealing Miao Ai's head.
The eunuch was so frightened that he fell to the ground, and Lao Ai's head rolled out.
Zhao Ji's eyes widened, and her pupils constricted.
"Su Yi! Damn it!" Zhao Ji's anger instantly rose and she shouted loudly.
Looking at Lao Ai's head on the ground, Mistress Zhao's hands were trembling. Then, ignoring the palace maids 'attempts to stop her, she left Sweet Spring Palace and headed straight for Zhang Taigong.
Ying Zheng had just taken charge of the government, so he had been dealing with government affairs in Zhangtai Palace.
Zhao Ji barged in angrily. She wanted Su Yi to pay the price.
Lao Ai was her most beloved boy toy, and for his sake, Lady Zhao had even agreed to the rebellion plan.
"Mother, why are you in such a hurry?" Ying Zheng frowned, put down the letter in his hand and asked,
"Marquis Wu Su Yi really deserves to die. Your Majesty, please issue an order to execute him immediately!”Lady Zhao no longer had the dignified demeanor of an empress dowager as she shouted at Ying Zheng.
"What happened? Mu Zhi has returned to Xianyang?" Ying Zheng asked.
"He killed the Marquis of Changxin, Lao Ai, and the marquis without permission. According to the laws of Qin, he should be beheaded and his three clans executed!”
"What happened?"
"No matter what, Su Yi must die. King, quickly issue the decree!”Lady Zhao pressed on step by step, trying to force Ying Zheng to issue the decree.
"Enough!" Ying Zheng gave a loud shout and stood up from the dragon throne.
"It's just Lao Ai!”Ying Zheng looked at Lady Zhao and said.
"I'll respectfully address you as my mother. You know better than me what kind of person Lao Ai is!”
"I only have Su Muzhi by my side, do you want to take him away?？””
"Let alone killing him once, even if I kill him a hundred times and kill his entire clan, I will pardon Mu Zhi!”
Lady Zhao was stunned by Ying Zheng's scolding. She did not expect Ying Zheng to be so furious because of Su Yi.
She did not expect that the secret between her and Lao Ai had been exposed...
"Your Majesty…"
"Shut up! If Mu Zhi does not make a move today, I will skin Lao Ai alive tomorrow!”Ying Zheng waved his hand and interrupted her.
"Men, send the Empress Dowager back to the Palace of Sweet Springs. In the future, you are not allowed to take a step out of the Palace.”With a wave of his hand, Ying Zheng ordered the Empress Dowager Zhao Ji to be placed under house arrest in the Palace of Sweet Spring.
Several imperial guards walked in and dragged the absent-minded Zhao Ji out of Zhangtai Palace.
Ying Zheng took a deep breath, and the anger on his face disappeared.
A year ago, he had already found out about Mistress Zhao and Miao Ai.
However, at that time, Ying Zheng did not have the power to govern the country, and Lu Buwei was the one who took over the throne.
Moreover, this was a big scandal, and Lady Zhao was his mother, so it was not appropriate to publicize it. Therefore, Ying Zheng did not punish Miao Ai immediately.
Now that Ying Zheng had just taken charge of the government, he was busy regaining his power. He wanted to take back the control of the imperial court from Lu Buwei and monopolize the court, so he temporarily put Miao Ai aside.
Now that Su Yi had made his move and killed Lao Ai with lightning speed, Ying Zheng had finally gotten rid of a huge burden on his mind.
