In the Rain Listening Pavilion of the Marquis of Champion's estate, Ying Xin looked at the information that was being gathered by the East Chamber's disciples. He picked up the tea on the table and took a sip before speaking.
"Yu Huatian, how are the arrangements going?”
" Lord Marquis, we have been working day and night. All the officials on the list are under our control. However, I'm afraid that Zhao Gao…" Yu Huatian's expression was slightly troubled. In his opinion, Zhao Gao's actions were just a diversion.
Huhai was a scapegoat that was pushed to the surface!
Even if they captured and beheaded all these people, it would not affect Zhao Gao's secret plan!
However, as a subject, it was inappropriate for him to have doubts when executing an order, so Yu Huatian hesitated whether to say it out loud.
"Yu Huatian, I'm not a narrow-minded person. You want to say that Zhao Gao is trying to create a diversion, right?”
"It's fine. These people are the vermin of the country. I wanted to kill them, but now that I have this matter, I have a good reason to do so.”
"Moreover, if I didn't make a big move, how could Zhao Gao believe that I was making arrangements to guard Xianyang?”
Ying Xin's eyes revealed indifference. Zhao Gao's plan was very strong, and he was caught off guard!
However, it would be too naive if they wanted to trap him in Xianyang with just these things!
Yu Huatian's anxious heart instantly relaxed. Since Lord Marquis was confident, then as his subordinate, he only needed to do his job well!
The next day.
The First Emperor Ying Zheng left the palace in secret. Apart from Zhang Han and the Shadow Secret Guards, no one else was alerted.
After a night of spreading the news, the news of Yu Huatian killing the Xianyang City Gate Order at the city gate was also known by all the nobles in the city!
Ying Xin didn't try to hide his intentions. Everyone knew that the death of the City Gate Order was because of the Marquis Champion's spoils of war.
However, at least one-third of the officials and nobles in Xianyang were involved in this matter. Everyone who had participated in this matter was worried and constantly comforted themselves.
"It's fine. No matter how ruthless the Marquis Champion is, he won't attack us. We have His Majesty backing us!”
"We've paid so much to expand the empire's territory, and we've only earned a small profit. Do you think the Marquis Champion will kill us all?”
"As the saying goes, we don't blame the masses. Our combined influence is enough to affect half of the empire. If the Marquis Champion kills us, it will shake the foundation of the country!”
Just as the entire Xianyang was in a state of terror, the various philosophers arrived in Xianyang one after another.
Regardless of whether they were willing to follow the imperial edict and enter the court, no one would not come!
Even if they wanted to assassinate the emperor, they would have to send someone over.
In the Spirit Expanse Pavilion, one of the many dance studios in Xianyang, an old man and a young man were sitting in a relatively remote corner on the second floor. The young man poked his head out and asked curiously.
"Uncle, we left the village to come to Xianyang, but we didn't get involved in the Hundred Schools of Philosophy. Why?”
" Shaoyu, be careful with your words. Take a look at the people in the Song and Dance Pavilion. The one sitting there is the farmer Tian Meng, and the one sitting there is…"
Under Fan Zeng's guidance, the various figures of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy appeared before Shaoyu.
For example, the one who attracted Shaoyu the most was Tian Meng, the head of the Chiyou Clan. He was extremely tall and only had one eye, but he was arrogant and domineering.
The most inconspicuous one was a gradually declining descendant of a novelist. A novelist could represent the customs of the four quarters of civilian society, but because of his small ways, he was not valued by the world. Gradually declining and disappearing was the final outcome.
However, this made Shaoyu very interested. Looking at the young man in white, he was very interested in the story he was talking about.
However, because Fan Zeng was beside him, he couldn't go over and strike up a conversation.
Fan Zeng shook his head when he saw Shaoyu's excited expression. He then looked at the people gathered in all directions, his eyes solemn.
In his eyes, Ying Xin was either crazy or he felt that he had the strength and ability to suppress all the other Bai Clans!
It should be known that just the farmer family alone had countless experts and was said to have 100,000 disciples!
During the Spring and Autumn Period, a peasant family could become a vassal state at any time!
As for Daoism, they were knowledgeable and learned from all things. They had comprehended the truth of martial arts from all things. The descendants of the Heavenly Sect had always been invincible when they stepped into the pugilistic world!
No matter what the Marquis Champion's situation was, it was still an opportunity for the Xiang Clan!
That was why Fan Zeng had come to Xianyang.
However, after coming to Xianyang, the situation was a little different from what he had expected. Many important figures from the Hundred Schools of Philosophy had come, both openly and secretly.
However, the moment the Marquis Champion returned to Xianyang, he killed the city gate commander and even spread the news that he wanted to kill all the nobles who had participated in the corruption of his spoils of war.
This confused Fan Zeng. Shouldn't the most important thing now be dealing with the Hundred Schools of Philosophy?
However, Fan Zeng instinctively felt a terrifying vortex hidden in the wind!
He decided that if things went wrong, he would immediately take Shaoyu and leave Xianyang!
Just as Shaoyu was about to strike up a conversation with the novelist's successor in high spirits, a horse galloped down the street like thunder, and its rider's shout shook the sky!
"Under the orders of the Marquis Champion, capture the vermin of the country. Those who resist will be killed on the spot!!!”
His voice was like thunder!
Fan Zeng's expression changed drastically. He immediately walked to the window and saw a scene that stunned him.
A Level 15 Noble Lord of Great Qin's manor was directly barged in by a black-armored Qin Knight!
Then, the sound of blood and crying intertwined!
The clashing of swords and sabers did not last for even a moment before the black knights dragged out the men in luxurious robes from the mansion. The young master was paralyzed as he cried.
"Lord Marquis, you can't do this! I've bled for Great Qin, I've sold my life for Great Qin!”
However, the armorer who grabbed him turned a deaf ear to him. He only raised his hand and slashed down with a cold expression!
Puchi!
The head fell to the ground, and blood gushed out!
The expressions of the people who had come out of the Vast Spirit Pavilion to watch the commotion changed when they saw this scene.
Young Master Zao was a noble with an extremely high Noble Rank in Great Qin!
He could even meet the First Emperor!
But now, he had killed her just like that!
Everyone knew the reason. It was because they had touched the spoils of war of the Marquis Champion!
The black-armored soldier who had beheaded the young master directly lifted his head. After which, he looked around and spoke with a cold expression.
"As a member of Great Qin, you have to abide by the laws of Great Qin. Anyone who dares to steal the spoils of war will have the same outcome!”
After saying that, he threw the head in his hand to his feet!
At the same time, the black-armored soldiers directly beheaded the person who was dragged out of the manor!
The expressions of everyone who saw this scene changed drastically!
When Fan Zeng saw this scene, his face instantly darkened like dark clouds. Then, he turned around and grabbed Shaoyu's hand. They could not stay here!
If he wanted to leave, be it the Hundred Schools of Philosophy or the nobility, he would have to completely separate from them!
Otherwise, it would be very difficult to leave Xianyang alive!
At this moment, the gate of Xianyang slowly closed. No one was allowed to enter or leave!
The same scene as the one at the Junior Mansion was happening all over Xianyang City!
Groups of black-robed soldiers followed Ying Xin's orders and raided the residences of the nobles on the list, then executed them all!
Under Yu Huatian's lead, the East Chamber foreigners searched for the fish that had slipped through the net!
The entire Xianyang City was now under Ying Xin's complete control!
He wouldn't. Give Zhao Gao a chance!
A woman wearing a light veil stood on the peak of Xianyang. She looked at the half-chaotic Xianyang with interest.
"Marquis Champion, you sure are bold. Is this your way of being overbearing?”
The interest in Xiaomeng, the successor of the Daoist Heavenly Sect, grew even stronger!
