"Groom and bride, greet your parents!"
In the Li Residence, Li Sun and Yan Ni faced Li Si and Li Wangshi and bowed.
"Good!"
"They're really a match made in heaven!”
"The Yan family is blessed. They actually married the daughter of the Li family first and then the son of the Li family!”
Many of the minor officials who came to support them cheered enthusiastically, making the entire scene lively.
However, Meng Yi's brows were tightly knitted together. He collapsed like a brazier.
"Too long!"
"Why did it take so long!"
Meng Yi was prepared to leave after a drink.
However, Meng Yi had already been here for more than an hour, and the Li Residence's wine goblet had yet to be served!
Just as Meng Yi decided that he could not delay his official duties even if he had to offend Li Si, a medic guard suddenly barged into the Li Residence and whispered into Meng Yi's ear.
"Doctor's order, Xianyang County Magistrate Yan Le led more than sixty bailiffs to surround and kill Qin Yun. His Majesty was furious and ordered Li Si to be arrested.”
"According to the comrades in the royal study, Marquis Wucheng thought that Li Si was the mastermind behind this.”
"300 comrades have surrounded the Li Residence.”
Meng Yi's pupils constricted as he slammed the table and stood up.
" Li Si, how dare you!"
The smile on Li Si's face slowly disappeared as he accepted the kowtows from the newcomers. He looked at Meng Yi in shock.
"His Majesty has ordered that Senior Minister Li be brought into the palace immediately!" Meng Yi said coldly.”
"Second, Third!"
"Yes!"
A shout suddenly came from outside the Li Residence, and a large number of doctor guards barged in.
"Surround the Li Residence. Don't let anyone escape!" Meng Yi said in a deep voice as he looked around.”
"Minister Li, please!"
The guests looked at each other in shock.
Zhongwei Lang was one of the imperial guards, and he was also Ying Zheng's closest secretary, secretary, and bodyguard. Each of them was skilled in both literature and martial arts. They were the last line of defense around Ying Zheng, and would not be used easily.
Except for Yang Duan He, all the other generals in the Qin Kingdom, such as Wang Ben, Meng Tian, Tu Sui, and so on, had all served as a medic guard. From this, it could be seen how important the position of medic guard was in Ying Zheng's heart.
That was the Great Qin Talent Repository and General Training Center!
Now, His Majesty had actually sent 300 doctor guards to capture Li Si!
His Majesty was truly enraged!
Li Si smiled and cupped his hands when he saw the guards.""Minister Meng, today is the day of my three sons 'wedding.”
"Can you let me see your son marry before entering the palace to pay his respects to His Majesty?”
"Are you trying to disobey the imperial edict, Minister Li?" Meng Yi looked at Li Si coldly.”
"Let's go!"
How could Meng Yi not know that he had been schemed against by Li Si?
He mercilessly brought Li Si into the royal study and immediately bowed.""Your Majesty, I have neglected my duty. Please punish me!”
" Three years 'salary," Ying Zheng said coldly." Go and take twenty sticks!"”
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Meng Yi cupped his hands.”
Meng Yi was completely convinced by this punishment.
Li Si looked at Yan Le and nodded. His gaze seemed to tell Yan Le to go in peace. I will take good care of your family and sister.
However, Yan Le said bitterly," Minister Li, I was careless when I was searching for the alchemist. I mistook Marquis Wucheng's grandson-in-law, Qin Yun, for an alchemist.”
"In the end, more than forty bailiffs under my command died. Qin Yun did not! Yang!"
Li Si felt like he was struck by lightning when he heard Yan Le's last words.
Qin Yun did not die?
If Qin Yun did not die, what would Ying Zheng do to him?
Just like that year, if Han Fei hadn't died, Ying Zheng wouldn't have spared him!
Li Si's neck seemed to have rusted as he turned towards Ying Zheng, only to see Ying Zheng's cold gaze.
"Your Majesty, I…"
Without waiting for Li Si to explain, Ying Zheng stood up slowly and walked to a spot about twenty feet away from Li Si. He looked at Li Si with a complicated gaze.
"Minister Li, you have contributed greatly to the unification of Great Qin.”
"Now that the world is settled, why do you keep doing such treasonous things!”
"You, are old!"
Ying Zheng was reluctant to give up this old buddy who had fought alongside him for decades.
But the one who brought Gao Jianli into the palace was Li Si.
Li Si was the one who urged the alchemist to find trouble with Qin Yun.
The mastermind behind the assassination of Qin Yun during the necromancer riot was Li Si!
If Ying Zheng were to show mercy, where would the prestige of a king remain?
Ying Zheng looked at Li Si and sighed,""What a pity! It hurts!"
"Minister Li, on account of your many years of service, zhen will give you some face.”
Looking at Ying Zheng's determined gaze, Li Si gave a bitter smile, carefully removed the crown on his head, and slowly placed it on the ground, bowing and cupping his hands.
"This humble subject thanks Your Majesty for your grace!"
Li Si understood Ying Zheng.
He knew very well that if he continued to quibble now, he would only lose his last shred of dignity.
Li Si walked out of the royal study and sighed bitterly as he looked at the setting sun.
"The boundless heavens are not inferior to me!"
"Could Qin Yun really be someone who can communicate with immortals and gods?”
On the way back to the Li Residence, Li Si looked haggard.
"Old Weng!"
"Minister Li!"
The guests who were trapped in the Li Residence by the doctor immediately greeted Li Si when they saw him.
However, Li Si acted as if he did not hear her and walked back to his study.
Li Sun finally found out the news and quickly ran into the study.
" Old Weng, Qin Yun was only lucky to escape this time. Next time, Old Weng will definitely kill him with a single strike!”
"There won't be a next time." Li Si shook his head slowly.”
"Didn't His Majesty say to give you some face?"”
"The last person His Majesty gave face to was…" Li Si enunciated each word clearly.
"Lu Buwei!"
