"Your Majesty…"
Hearing Wang Jian's words, Li Si's heart sank, and he looked at Ying Zheng with a pleading expression.
"Your Majesty, Li Si is extremely daring.”Wang Jian also looked at Ying Zheng with an incomparably solemn expression.
"Some things, once done, have to bear the price.”Ying Zheng looked at Li Si, who was kneeling on the ground and pleading, and said with a cold gaze.
"Your Majesty, I was wrong. I'm willing to suffer a thousand cuts. Please let Li Si's family go.”Li Si shouted regretfully when he heard Zhao Yang's words.
"Men, take Li Si away and execute the entire clan.”Hearing Li Si's cries, Ying Zheng ordered with a cold expression.
"Yes."
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, the officials led by Wang Jian said respectfully.
After that, Li Si was taken away by Wang Ben, the son of Wang Jian.
After Li Si was taken away, Zhao Gao, who had started everything, suddenly went from fear to calmness.
He had accepted the fact that even Li Si, who had contributed greatly to Great Qin, would not be able to escape death, so who was Zhao Gao? It was better to die with dignity.
"Zhao Gao, haven't you thought of anything to say?”
Looking at Zhao Gao's calm expression, Ying Zheng's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Ying Zheng had been hesitant about Li Si before, because Li Si was loyal to him and Great Qin. Whether it was this world or the parallel world in the history encyclopedia, Li Si was always loyal to him.
Tampering with the posthumous edict was only because he was too greedy for power. Originally, nothing had happened yet. Ying Zheng wanted to give Li Si a chance on account of his past contributions. But, Wang Jian was right. Some things were wrong, and they were wrong. Not many contributions could exempt Li Si from punishment. Therefore, Li Si still had to die.
However, Ying Zheng was hesitant about Li Si, but he was full of killing intent towards Zhao Gao.
Regardless of whether it was in his world or the historical Qin Dynasty, Zhao Gao was the one who started everything, and he was also the main culprit that led to the destruction of Great Qin. To be honest, if Ying Zheng had not read the historical encyclopedia, he would never have thought that a puny Zhao Gao would be able to tear Great Qin apart in the future.
"Zhao Gao has nothing to say. His Majesty has calculated everything. Zhao Gao admits it. I didn't expect that a small Zhao Gao was worth His Majesty setting up a fake death trap. This is really Zhao Gao's greatest honor. In the future, Zhao Gao will probably leave a thick mark in the history books.”Zhao Gao looked at Ying Zheng and laughed.
"Impudent."
Wang Jian, Wang Ben, Meng Tian, and the others were furious when they saw Zhao Gao laughing so loudly.
"You really don't have the qualifications to make zhen personally set up this trap for you.”Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Gao and said lightly.
"So Your Majesty set up this trap for the Hundred Schools of Philosophy? His Majesty wanted to fake his death and let the Hundred Schools of Philosophy appear? If that's the case, Your Majesty's plan has failed. In order to prevent the Hundred Schools of Philosophy from knowing that you're really dead, I've set up a trap to make them think that you're not dead.”
" You appeared too early. If you had appeared after Huhai ascended the throne, the Hundred Schools of Philosophy would have known that you were really dead. But now, the Hundred Schools of Philosophy would have already received the news and knew that you weren't dead.”Zhao Gao said.
"They don't have the right for me to set up this trap. I didn't set up this trap at all. I was indeed dead that day. Otherwise, why would I let you and Li Si set up the posthumous edict? However, although I died that day, my spirit was not extinguished and I could still sense the outside world.”
"When I heard that you and Li Si had tampered with the posthumous edict and sent a false edict to kill Fu Su, I was filled with anger and unwillingness. If I hadn't met an immortal at the moment of my death and obtained a great fortune to change my fate and live a new life, I'm afraid your plan would have succeeded.”
Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Gao and said lightly.
"To see immortals? Haha, Your Majesty, do you really believe in immortals? That's just an ancient legend. If you want to kill him, then kill him. Why make up a lie?”Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Zhao Gao burst out laughing.
…………
"Immortals?" Zhao Yang, who was watching the scene of Ying Zheng's return with his God's Perspective, narrowed his eyes.
He could see that Ying Zheng was using him as an excuse, just like Ye Wen, because what Ying Zheng was going to do next would meet a lot of resistance, and he needed a great excuse to smooth out these resistance.
At the same time, he needed a reasonable explanation for the many special items that Ying Zheng had opened in the shops of the heavens. The gifts from the immortals were a good excuse.
However, what made Zhao Yang curious was that the Mid-Level Martial Great Qin World was not a Level 1 world like Ye Wen's. In the Mid-Level Martial Great Qin World, would using immortals as an excuse really work?
However, Zhao Yang quickly checked the introduction of immortals in the Mid-Level Martial Great Qin World with his World Level Authority. He understood that immortals were indeed useful as an excuse.
There were also records of immortals in the Mid Level Martial Great Qin World, and Ying Zheng had asked Xu Fu to seek immortals in the Mid Level Martial Great Qin World, just like the other worlds.
The immortals of the Great Qin world were recorded in the fantasy era. In the records, immortals transcended heaven and earth and were omnipotent. Everything in the world was born with a single thought from the immortals.
Because of this record, Ying Zheng had asked Xu Fu to seek out immortals. Immortals were omnipotent, and as long as one could find an immortal, would they be afraid of not being able to extend their lifespan?
However, according to Zhao Yang's inquiry, the introduction of this immortal was actually a speculation of the strongest group of people in the fantasy era about a higher realm.
During the Fantasy Era, the Mid-Level Martial Great Qin was a peak Level 4 world. At that time, a group of people had already reached the limits of the world. They were unwilling to die as their lifespans ran out, so they worked together to deduce a higher realm, which was the Immortal Realm.
If one of them broke through to the Immortal Realm, the Mid-Level Martial Great Qin World could directly advance to a Level 5 World.
However, it was a pity that they had failed at that time. In fact, because of their failure, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth continued to decrease, and the Dao of Fantasy began to collapse.
The Dharma Ending Period of the Great Qin Empire had a lot to do with these people.
During the fantasy era, because these people failed to break through, everything vanished into thin air. Only their deductions about immortals were passed down. Over time, this deduction became a true introduction to immortals.
The immortals of the Great Qin Empire were omnipotent, so it was naturally useful for Ying Zheng to use immortals as an excuse.
However, when he used his World Level Authority to thoroughly investigate the Mid-Level Martial Great Qin World, Zhao Yang discovered something very interesting. Among the group of people who had broken through to the Immortal Realm, one of them had succeeded in half a step. Although he had died in the end, his soul had reincarnated.
The person who reincarnated was also famous in the Great Qin world. He was the Daoist Patriarch Laozi, who had created the future path of martial arts.

"Zhao Gao, you really think highly of yourself. Are you worthy of being deceived by me? In my eyes, you are just a clown.”Hearing Zhao Gao's words, Ying Zheng said coldly.
What he said just now was just an excuse to justify his heaven-defying rebirth and the many treasures he had obtained from the shops of the heavens.
"Impossible. Immortals are just legends. How can there be immortals in the world?”Zhao Gao was filled with disbelief.
If he had been defeated by Ying Zheng's scheme, he would not have died in vain. But, if he died because of the existence of the Immortals, he would not be able to accept it. Why did the Immortals favor Ying Zheng and not him?
"Take Zhao Gao away and cut him into pieces for ten days. After he dies, hang his body on the high wall so that future generations will remember how Zhao Gao died.”Ying Zheng pointed and said coldly.
"Yes." As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, someone immediately accepted the order.
"Impossible, immortals can't exist. You must think that a small fry like me ruined your plan, so you're using this as an excuse.”Zhao Gao shouted as he was dragged away.
