Ying Zheng was really happy that he had drawn Ximen Chuixue. After all, he lacked such a great expert by his side.
Moreover, he remembered that there were no less than three recorded assassinations in history.
He could imagine how dangerous it was around him.
Therefore, it was better to be on guard than to be on guard. Ying Zheng was now very concerned about his own safety. Otherwise, he would not have asked Zhang Han to guard Zhangtai Palace day and night and not go out for several years.
His life was the capital he had to go out and have fun.
If he wanted to live, he would have to have a powerful force by his side. He didn't have one in the past, but now that he had Ximen Chuixue, Ying Zheng felt that he could see the prosperity of the Qin Dynasty, and no longer be a caged bird.
"I wonder how much my strength will increase if Ximen Chuixue's loyalty is maxed out.”
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng was filled with anticipation for Ximen Chuixue.
But soon, he felt an extremely strong sense of sleepiness. It was not because of the bewitching incense that others had used, but because he was truly sleepy. It had been more than a day since he had drawn the Embroidered Uniform Guards, and Ying Zheng had not slept a wink.
It was late at night, and it would be a lie to say that he was not sleepy. Even the best experts were human beings, not to mention people like Ying Zheng, who used his brain every day.
After a while, he fell asleep.
At the same time, in the dark corner of his room, a figure dressed in plain clothes appeared, holding an ancient long sword sheathed in a black scabbard in his hand. His entire body was exuding a sense of pride, and he was looking at Ying Zheng expressionlessly while keeping a lookout for his surroundings.
This person was Ximen Chuixue!
"Great King, this is Lord Mao Xiang's report."
"Branches!"
" Who are you?"
Early in the morning, just before dawn, Zhao Gao walked into Zhangtai Palace with Mao Xiang's letter in his hands. Since Ying Zheng had the habit of closing the door, it meant that he would let you enter directly. Zhao Gao opened the door.
However, when he entered and saw this scene, he was immediately shocked. This was because there was a completely unfamiliar person standing in Zhangtai Palace. He held a sword in his hand and had an expressionless expression that made him feel afraid.
But thinking that this was Ying Zheng's place, Zhao Gao immediately questioned him sternly,""If you don't answer, I, Zhao Gao, will capture you today even if I have to risk my life.”
"Hualala!"
Hearing his words, the Embroidered Uniform Guards and Shadow Secret Guards guarding outside came in one after another. When they saw this stranger, everyone was shocked and pulled out their weapons to guard him.
"Alright! All of you can leave!"
While they were still in a state of shock and bewilderment, they heard a majestic voice. They saw that it was Ying Zheng, who had just woken up.
"Yes, sir!" Hearing his order, the Embroidered Uniform Guards and Shadow Secret Guards retreated one after another, leaving only Zhao Gao, Ximen Chuixue, and Ying Zheng.
"Speak, Zhao Gao, what is it?"
Rubbing his temples, although Ying Zheng had been woken up and was a little grumpy, as an emperor, he naturally would not punish others like this. Besides, if he closed the door, he would have set a rule that he would report to the emperor immediately.
"Great King, this is the news Lord Mao Xiang sent back. Please make your decision!”
Hearing this, Zhao Gao immediately came back to his senses. He had just seen the indifference in Ximen Chuixue's eyes and felt a chill run down his spine.
This was a heartless person, a heartless person!
With just one glance, Zhao Gao, who knew people well, knew that Ximen Chuixue was not someone to be trifled with. But he quickly adjusted himself and presented the letter to Ying Zheng.
"Yes…"
Ying Zheng accepted the things that Zhao Gao handed over and gave a short response. He then began to examine them. These things were Mao Xiang's report on his actions last night, as well as the evidence of his arrest and his trial.
Ying Zheng nodded in response, secretly sighing that Mao Xiang understood his meaning.
Because the people he had captured were all typical examples. Take Liu Da as an example. As one of the Nine Ministers, Feng Chang, Liu Da usually kept a low profile as an official, but he was Lu Buwei's secret follower. He had even written a letter asking Lu Buwei to seize the throne.
Why didn't they capture such a person?
How could he not capture someone so determined to join Lu Buwei? Thus, Mao Xiang was captured.
As for the others, they were all the same. They were either particularly against Ying Zheng, or half-hearted people who had even put it into practice.
They were all captured!
Of course, Mao Xiang did not spare those who were guilty but not sentenced to death. However, he did not arrest them. Instead, he compiled a name list and submitted it to Ying Zheng for him to make a decision.
Therefore, after checking the name list, Ying Zheng started to get busy. These people had to be punished. Although it was useful to him, punishing him was another matter altogether.
He became a workaholic all of a sudden. It was not until noon that he decided on everyone's arrangements.
"Zhao Gao, send him to Mao Xiang. Remember, no one can see him!”
"Yes, sir!"
After handing the document to Zhao Gao, Ying Zheng turned his gaze to Ximen Chuixue, who had been standing beside him all this while.
"System, open Ximen Chuixue's interface!”
"Ding! The interface has been opened!"
Character: Ximen Chuixue
[Age: 30]
[Strength: Grandmaster-Peak]
[Remarks: Falling Flowers and Snow, superb swordsmanship, sharp sword path.] Sword God smiled. The brilliant sword path could move immortals, buddhas, ghosts, and gods.
[Loyalty: 80 (dedicated)]
"This evaluation is invincible."
After reading Ximen Chuixue's interface, Ying Zheng was full of praise. He then exited the System Space and looked at Ximen Chuixue."Ximen, this king will call you that from now on, how about it?”
"Everything is up to the king!"
"Yes!"
Seeing Ximen Chuixue bow in response, Ying Zheng could not help but feel happy. With such a great expert, he was safe!
"Then in the future, you will stay by this king's side and take care of this king's safety.”
"Yes, sir!"
After making arrangements for Ximen Chuixue, Ying Zheng walked out of Zhangtai Palace. He had been in Zhangtai Palace for the past few days, and he wanted to have a good rest.
In the next few days, due to the words he had said in the Imperial Court, he did not attend court for a few consecutive days. However, he had been dealing with the news of Mao Xiang and the memorials from the various officials.
Until one morning
"Move aside!"
"Empress, no!"
"I told you to get out of the way. What Empress!”
"Today, I want to ask Ying Zheng, what is he trying to do?!”
"Too much!"
"Who's making a ruckus!"
At this moment, when Zhangtai Palace was dealing with today's memorials, Ying Zheng heard the commotion outside and immediately shot a glance at Zhao Gao. The latter immediately shivered and went to open the door of the palace.
However, when he saw the person's face clearly, he held back his words.
Because the person who came was none other than Concubine Yan!
One of the future consorts that was widely rumored in the palace!
This, he couldn't afford to offend them!
"Get up! I'm here to settle scores with your king!"
Seeing the door open, Concubine Yan pushed Zhao Gao away coldly and strode into Zhangtai Palace.
"Qin Wang, you're really impressive. You actually put me and Yueshen under house arrest in the palace.”
As soon as she walked in, Concubine Yan did not care about anything else, and started to attack Ying Zheng.
She was still young, and although she was a little scheming, she was not as reckless as she would be in the future.
"Oh?"
Hearing her words, Ying Zheng put down the brush, then rested his chin on one hand, and looked at her indifferently,""Lady Yan of the Yin-Yang School!"
"Don't you know that I can't be disturbed when I'm working? Even if your Yin-Yang School's Donghuang Taiyi comes, I can't be disturbed.”
"Do you want to die?"
"Who gave you the courage?"
PS: When I see the comments section saying that I wrote it, sometimes this king, sometimes I, I correct it!
There were also people who said that Brother Zheng referred to himself as me. In fact, I was also thinking of calling this king before. It's still better to call me me. If this king really acts out, I'll correct it!
Why don't we do three consecutive hits? Fresh flowers, evaluation, monthly votes ~
