Ying Zheng regained his confidence and ordered his men to clean up the mountain fire before driving back to the palace.
However, Li Si was the last to speak. He said with a dark gaze,""Kill all these merchants, leave no one alive!”
"My lord! Lord, please spare my life!"
"Prime Minister Li, what have we done?”
"Ah!"
The 20 merchants were quickly slaughtered by the Imperial Army, and their corpses were thrown into the fire that had yet to be extinguished for cremation.
Li Si looked around coldly and said,""No one is allowed to tell anyone about today's matter. Otherwise, these people will end up like you!”
The fact that His Majesty was able to see the celestial mountain overseas was the best evidence that His Majesty's imperial power was commanded by the heavens.
So what if there were no immortals in this world?
For the stability of the Qin Dynasty, this secret must not be leaked!
"Only by killing the source of all this can we completely eliminate the possibility of this news spreading.”
Li Si's killing intent rose again, but he shook his head helplessly.""Unfortunately, that person is currently favored by the emperor and can't be touched!”
Letting out a long sigh, Li Si caught up with Ying Zheng's carriage and headed towards the Imperial Palace.
As soon as he returned to the palace, Ying Zheng saw Fu Su standing at the entrance of the palace with his hands hanging by his side.
"Father!"
The corners of Ying Zheng's mouth curled up slightly as he nodded and asked,""Why isn't my son taking care of the piglet today?”
Fu Su chuckled." Yin Man went to take care of Little Humph and the others. I guarantee that they won't starve."”
"Father, I'm here to advise you!" Fu Su cupped his hands and said.”
Ying Zheng's faint smile instantly turned black,""No!"
He thought that his eldest son would be more intelligent under Chu Han's guidance. Why was he still so stubborn?
Fu Su bowed persistently." Father, I heard that you are going to send Xu Fu out to the sea to patrol the Immortal Mountain. You have also prepared thousands of boys and girls, as well as a large amount of food, cloth, and ritual vessels. I beg you to retract your order!"”
"Follow me to the royal study," Ying Zheng said lightly.”
Seeing that Ying Zheng had already strode away, Fu Su could only hold back his words and follow Ying Zheng to the royal study.
As soon as he entered, Fu Su remonstrated again,""You don't speak of supernatural powers. A gentleman should respect ghosts and gods and stay away from them, let alone father! If there really were immortals and immortal pills in this world, how could there be no immortal?”
If Fu Su and Ying Zheng had said those words yesterday, Ying Zheng would have been furious.
But at this moment, Ying Zheng's state of mind was very calm, and he even felt like laughing.
"I am very gratified by my son's benevolence.”
"But do you think I don't know that there are no immortal mountains or immortals in this world?”
Seeing Ying Zheng's angry expression, Fu Su panicked at first, then he was overjoyed,""Your son has wronged Father. Your son knew that with Father's wisdom and martial arts, how could he believe the nonsense of those necromancers!”
Ying Zheng blushed. He would never tell Fu Su that he was really fooled by the necromancer back then!
"Since Father doesn't think that there is a celestial mountain overseas, why did he send Xu Fu to search for it?" Fu Su asked in confusion.”
"There are no immortal mountains in the sea, but there are mountains of gold and silver!" Ying Zheng said confidently. "If we can dig out those mountains of gold and silver, our Great Qin's national strength will definitely skyrocket!”
Fu Su was stunned." There are mountains of gold and silver overseas? How is that possible?"”
" Meng Yi!" Ying Zheng threw a glance at Fu Su and said," Whether it's true or not, you'll find out when Xu Fu comes back, Meng Yi!"”
Meng Yi, who was waiting outside the door, pushed the door open and entered.
"Your subject is here!"
Ying Zheng walked behind the desk and drew a sketch on the silk cloth with a brush.
"Give this map to your elder brother Meng Tian and ask him to send his capable subordinates to follow Xu Fu out to sea as his guards. When they arrive here, tell them to look for the mineral vein according to this map!”
If Chu Han had seen the sketch drawn by Ying Zheng, he would have realized it.
This drawing was exactly the same as the one he had drawn on the table with wine!
"If that Xu Fu doesn't listen to orders…"
Ying Zheng's eyes narrowed.”
Although Meng Yi was somewhat puzzled, he still cupped his hands and said,"This lowly subject accepts your orders."
Meng Yi obeyed the order and left. After a moment of silence, Ying Zheng said again,""Zhao Tuo!"
An armored general walked out from behind the screen and cupped his hands."I'm here!"
" Send fifty imperial guards to disguise themselves and follow Xu Fu out to sea," Ying Zheng said calmly." If Xu Fu and his soldiers do as I say, they will continue to hide their identities.”
"Kill them all!" Ying Zheng said with a murderous look on his face.”
Zhao Tuo's heart tightened, and he cupped his hands.”
The mountains of gold and silver were far too important. Even if it was handed over to his trusted brothers Meng Yi and Meng Tian, Ying Zheng was still worried.
Only by balancing the three parties could Ying Zheng feel a little more at ease.
After making the arrangements, Ying Zheng looked at Fu Su's stunned expression and felt extremely pleased with himself.
