Even after the eunuchs had cleaned up the Palace of Sweet Spring, the coldness on Ying Zheng's face was still faintly visible.
All the imperial guards and officials knelt on the ground, not daring to move.
After a while, Meng Yi finally couldn't hold it in anymore. He stood up and cupped his hands."This humble subject congratulates Your Majesty."
Li Si and the others looked at Meng Yi in shock.
Are you courting death?
His Majesty had just been assassinated and almost died!
You actually congratulated His Majesty?
However, what Li Si and the others did not expect was that the coldness on Ying Zheng's face slowly dissipated. He nodded and said,""Indeed."
"After this matter, I don't have to worry about a bloody disaster.”
Although Ying Zheng's forehead had a small cut and was bleeding a lot, he was still injured.
However, Ying Zheng was only angry about this, and did not care about these minor injuries at all.
If such a small injury could resolve that bloody disaster, it was definitely worth congratulating.
Ying Zheng gave Meng Yi a smile and said,""However, if it weren't for Minister Meng, even if this disaster wasn't a fate, I'm afraid I would have to lie in bed for several months.”
Meng Yi immediately said," Your Majesty, the heavens will bless you. Even if I didn't draw my sword, with Gao Jianli's accuracy, it would be impossible for him to hit Your Majesty!"”
"Your Majesty, you flatter me."
"Did Minister Meng know that Gao Jianli would assassinate His Majesty?" Li Si asked.”
"If I had known what he was thinking, I would have killed him the moment I saw him!" Meng Yi said coldly.”
Without waiting for Li Si to ask further, Meng Yi said in relief,""Ten days ago, Gentleman Qin performed a divination for Your Majesty. He said that Your Majesty would definitely suffer a bloody calamity within this month.”
"That's why I've always been on guard against my surroundings and my sword has never left my side.”
"Now, it really came true."
" That day, His Majesty ordered General Dun to search the entire city and General Yang to lead the army into the city. Was it because of a divination by Gentleman Qin?" Li Si asked in surprise.”
"That's right." Ying Zheng nodded slowly.
"I thought that the person who assassinated me was either a remnant in the city or a villain in the palace. I didn't expect that in the end, it was actually a blind man!”
After his anger subsided, Ying Zheng shook his head helplessly and said,""I was careless."
"I still haven't paid enough attention to Qin Junzi's exhortations.”
Li Si was shocked.
With just a word from Qin Yun, you mobilized tens of thousands of soldiers.
If this wasn't important, then what was important?
With this in mind, Li Si's wariness towards Qin Yun had evolved into intense hostility.
With Ying Zheng's current trust in Qin Yun, coupled with the fact that Qin Yun was the only person who could help Ying Zheng achieve immortality, he was irreplaceable.
In addition, he had the ability to advise others, and now he had been removed from the position of Left Minister.
With the combination of several factors, who knew if Ying Zheng would have a thought and let Qin Yun be promoted to Left Minister the moment he entered the officialdom?
Although Qin Yun did not have much experience in politics and he was not considered old, he was still very young.
However, no matter how inexperienced or young Qin Yun was, could he be any younger or more inexperienced than Gan Luo?
If even Gan Luo could become the Prime Minister, what was impossible about Qin Yun?
Li Si tried his best to control his expression, but his hands that were hidden in his sleeves were already clenched into fists. His nails were about to pierce through his palms!
Now that Ying Zheng had not appointed a new Left Minister, Li Si still had a chance to be reinstated.
However, if Ying Zheng really appointed Qin Yun as Left Minister, it would be difficult for him to remain one of the Three Dukes for the rest of his life!
Meng Yi did not notice the change in Li Si's emotions. He cupped his hands nervously and said,""Your Majesty, I believe that although this assassination is considered a bloody disaster, I will not be able to kill you.”
"However, it is still unknown whether there will only be one bloody disaster.”
"In my humble opinion, why don't Your Majesty ask Gentleman Qin to perform a divination so that you can be at ease?”
Ying Zheng immediately nodded.”
"Men, change your clothes. Zhen wants to leave the palace!”
" Your Majesty," Li Si hurriedly said," I hope to see Mister Qin."”
"I wonder if I can travel with Your Majesty?”
Ying Zheng hesitated for a moment, then nodded.”
Two hours later, more than a thousand imperial guards who had changed into casual clothes escorted Ying Zheng out of the palace through a side door. They then dispersed into the crowd, protecting Ying Zheng from afar.
On the streets, the pavilion guards swarmed out in full force.
They couldn't help but feel nervous.
After all, Ying Zheng had just been assassinated!
Only Ying Zheng had a smile on his face as he approached Qin Yun's stall in the Eastern Market.
But before Ying Zheng could say anything, he heard a familiar laugh.
"Gentleman Qin, you're really amazing!”
Lian 'er looked at Qin Yun fervently." When you asked me to prepare the decoction in advance, I did not know why.”
"I didn't expect that Lian 'er really did catch a cold a few days ago. Fortunately, I bought the decoction in advance, otherwise, Lian' er would definitely be seriously ill!”
Ying Zheng turned to Lian 'er with a stiff neck, and cried out in disbelief,""Lian 'er?"
Lian 'er subconsciously turned her head to take a look, and immediately after, she trembled in fear.
"Father, father, father…"
