A day passed in the blink of an eye.
The court meeting is coming.
All the officials and officials of the court were waiting quietly in the Four Seas Return Hall.
Da da--
Ying Zheng was wearing a flat crown on his head, and his eyes were incomparably sharp under the glass. He sat upright on the throne, exuding an imposing aura.
Like the scorching sun.
Everyone was shocked. It had been a long time since they had seen such power.
Moreover, Ying Zheng's face was rosy, and his every move was filled with a domineering aura.
How did he look like a dying person?
The rumors were wrong!
Ying Zheng's words made everyone's faces change slightly,""Do you all know why I killed Li Si and Zhao Gao?”
As soon as he said this.
All the civil and military officials in the court were shocked.
The moment he opened his mouth, he said that it was a matter of treason. Who dared to speak?
It was deathly silent.
"That's because Zhao Gao rebelled!" " Is it because I haven't held a court meeting for a long time and I haven't seen you all?" Ying Zheng said coldly." Have you all forgotten my name and reputation, and the people of the world no longer fear me?"”
"Otherwise, Zhao Gaoan would dare to rebel! How dare you make me issue an edict to punish myself!"
Everyone looked at each other.
"Feng Quji, what do you think is going on in Xianyang recently?”
Left Prime Minister Feng Quji's expression froze.
Recently, the discussion in Xianyang was about the death of the First Emperor and the division of land.
" It's just some rumors…" he said in a low voice.
"Rumors?" Ying Zheng laughed coldly." How would I know that it's not these? If it's these, why did you ask me to issue an edict to punish myself? Why did you ask me to lightly shake the taxes? Do you think I'm a tyrant?”
"Or do you think that I have really angered the heavens?”
His words were filled with killing intent and hostility.
"We are guilty!" All the officials and officials in the court knelt on the ground.
Even if Great Qin did not kneel.
However, facing Ying Zheng's power, no one dared to not kneel.
This was because they were afraid, and also because they had once again returned to the time when Ying Zheng had unified the six dynasties.
At that time, who would dare to disrespect Ying Zheng?
Why was he not afraid of Ying Zheng?
But now? The fear was still there, but it had weakened greatly.
"Guilty? What crime? The truly guilty ones were Zhao Gao's accomplices!”Ying Zheng looked at Meng Yi.
The original chief justice should be Li Si.
However, since Meng Yi inherited the position of the Right Prime Minister, he would naturally inherit the position of the Chief Justice.
"Prime Minister, what do you think of the crime of treason according to the laws of Qin?" he asked coldly.”
"Three clans shall be executed!" Meng Yi said resolutely.
"What crime is it to implicate the traitor?”Ying Zheng asked again.
"Clan Slayer!" Meng Yi's heart trembled. He already knew what Ying Zheng was going to do.
"Good! Zhang Han, immediately bring people to bring all the people involved in the rebellion.”Ying Zheng stared coldly at all the people in the court.”
After he finished speaking, he sat on the throne without saying a word.
All the civil and military officials in the court were trembling, especially those who were related to Zhao Gao.
Their hearts trembled.
No one had expected the First Emperor to be so cruel.
Zhao Gao's matter actually involved many things.
After all, Zhao Gao had represented Huhai in the past.
Ying Zheng was not feeling well, this was a well-known fact.
With Fu Su far away from the Great Wall, Huhai was the most likely successor.
Zhao Gao used Huhai's banner to form alliances, and many people responded.!
Ying Zheng knew about this, but he did not care.
Because standing on the wrong side was a mistake!
Most importantly, Great Qin was in a precarious situation, and there were many undercurrents.
The hearts of the people wanted to change. They had to purge the government and deter the imperial court!
Zhao Gao and Li Si's betrayal meant that people were unpredictable.
Loyalty?
Zhao Gao was loyal enough, but so what?
Therefore, Ying Zheng did not intend to ask for any loyalty, but to make these people fear him.
Only then would they obediently work for Great Qin.
As for the Way of the King, it was aimed at the people, not the officials.
Most importantly, Ying Zheng had the system, Meng Yi, Feng Quji, Zhang Han, and the others.
These people were proven by history.
As for the others? Resentment, fear, so what?!
As long as Qin Shi Huang did not die, who would dare to act rashly?!
