There were two groups of people outside. One was in black armor and helmets. There were fewer people, but each of them emitted a terrifying murderous aura that made people not dare to approach them.
They were none other than the Shadow Secret Guards of the Black Ice Platform, led by Zhang Han. They had been guarding Ying Zheng day and night.
At this moment, Zhang Han was standing at the front with a long sword in his hand. He was looking at the person opposite him warily.
The other group of people had a great momentum. They wore standard flying fish clothes and embroidered spring knives at their waists. Among them, fourteen of them held the Ming Fourteen Forces, a very powerful weapon box that contained all kinds of weapons.
Who else could it be but the Jinyiwei?
At this moment, a middle-aged man was standing at the front, leading the Embroidered Uniform Guards to confront Zhang Han.
However, none of them made a move. Firstly, the Embroidered Uniform Guards had recognized their master, and Zhang Han was protecting Ying Zheng's safety. Therefore, both parties had not made a move yet.
But after a while, things might change.
Fortunately, Ying Zheng had come out now, and he would definitely not let these two sides fight.
"What? Are you planning to attack me in front of me?”
After seeing the situation clearly, Ying Zheng walked over with his hands behind his back.
His appearance immediately shocked the two sides who were originally confronting each other. Then, they knelt down and bowed.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
“....”
Tens of thousands of people came to pay their respects, creating a huge commotion in the Xianyang Palace at night. Even Ying Zheng could not help but exclaim in admiration.
"Get up!"
Seeing this, Ying Zheng walked to the center of the confrontation and asked everyone to stand up. His voice was neither loud nor soft, but it was full of dignity. When everyone heard it, no one dared to disobey him, and they all stood up.
"Yes, sir!"
"Your Majesty, please return to the palace quickly. There are many uninvited guests in Xianyang Palace!”
As soon as he got up, Zhang Han walked up to Ying Zheng and protected him behind him, in case the Brocade Guard suddenly attacked him.
When Ying Zheng saw his actions, he nodded repeatedly, secretly praising himself for not using the wrong person. However, he did not show it on his face. Instead, he asked Zhang Han to move aside.
"Great King!"
Not understanding why Ying Zheng was acting like this, Zhang Han looked at him in surprise, but the latter's majestic voice rang out again,""Move aside!"
"Yes, sir!"
This time, Zhang Han did not dare to disobey and obediently retreated to the side. However, he stared at the Embroidered Uniform Guards. If they dared to make any strange movements, he would be the first to act.
Even if he died!
We must also protect the king's safety!
Even though these people had just paid their respects to Ying Zheng like him, it did not mean that he would let down his guard.
Ying Zheng did not know what he was thinking. At this moment, he was sizing up the Embroidered Uniform Guards in front of him. Then, he saw the middleman standing in the front. Ying Zheng walked over with a smile.
"You…"
"Your Majesty, I, Mao Xiang, have returned under orders. Back then, I was ordered by Your Majesty to establish the Embroidered Uniform Guards. After this training, I will return with the guards to serve Your Majesty!”
Just as Ying Zheng walked up to the middle-aged man, he revealed his background, then knelt down on one knee and bowed to Ying Zheng once again.
"This…"
When Zhang Han, who was originally on guard against them, heard this, he immediately froze on the spot. He looked at the people in front of him with some fear and said in a voice that only he could hear," These are all the king's men?!"
" When?!"
A huge wave of shock rose in Zhang Han's heart. He really did not know how to express his surprise. In the end, he could only look at Ying Zheng longingly.
The king had been accumulating strength for a long time!
As expected of the King of Qin!
"Yes!"
Ying Zheng did not know what Zhang Han was thinking, and even if he did, he would not say much. But after hearing Mao Xiang's words, he could not help but praise the system for being so good at handling matters, even thinking of the origins of these people.
Not bad, not bad, the system will give you a thumbs up.
"In that case, Mao Xiang, listen up!”
"This king orders you to be the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards. You are a third-grade official. The rest of you are below this rank!”
"I thank Your Majesty!"
Due to Ying Zheng's transmigration, he made use of his power to not only use the system of three dukes and nine ministers, but also divide the officials into nine grades and sit opposite each other. He also used the system of prefectures and counties, and did not wait until the world was unified before reforming it.
At this moment, Zhang Han was also shocked. He did not expect that Ying Zheng would give him a rank three official with just a wave of his hand. In the past, when giving an official position, it would be discussed by others, and the most important one was Lu Buwei. This was also the reason why Ying Zheng had always wanted to get rid of him.
The dignified ruler of a country wanted to bestow an official position, yet he still wanted him to discuss it. What was this?
In fact, there was nothing he could do about it. It was Ying Zheng's fault that he had ascended the throne early, and had not been in charge of the government. This had given this man a chance to take advantage of him. Although Lu Buwei had suffered a lot in the open and in the dark, he was still strong.
Over the years, Lu Buwei had planted quite a number of people in the imperial court, which was also the reason why Ying Zheng had not taken action yet.
"Get up. If you thank me, then serve me well!”
"Yes, sir!"
Hearing Mao Xiang's words, Ying Zheng nodded, then shouted to the system in his heart,"
"System, open Mao Xiang's interface!”
"Ding! Already opened."
Character: Mao Xiang
[Age: 35]
[Strength: Peerless Expert-Peak]
[Evaluation: Founder of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, the first commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards. Rumor has it that he killed tens of thousands of people when he was in power. He is a ruthless executioner and a sharp weapon of the imperial court.]
[Loyalty: 80 (dedicated)]
"Why is it only 80?"
Seeing that it was not 100, Ying Zheng was a little dissatisfied. After all, a person who held such an important position must be loyal.
"Host, 80 is already a good number. It's also a starting point. You don't have to worry about betrayal. As for the 20, you still have to develop it yourself.”
" Oh right, there's a reward for loyalty!"
"Oh? Reward?"
He didn't ask what it was, as it would be more fun to explore it himself. Therefore, Ying Zheng's curiosity was piqued, and he left the space after memorizing the matter.
"Mao Xiang, this king orders you to bring the Embroidered Uniform Guards to carry out a very dangerous operation tonight. How about it?”
"This lowly subject is willing!"
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Mao Xiang did not ask what the mission was, but accepted it directly. This scene made Ying Zheng very satisfied, and he immediately turned to look at Zhang Han.
"Zhang Han, Mao Xiang, listen up!"
"Yes!" x2
"Prime Minister Lu Buwei has disrupted the court's rules and violated the law. He has enjoyed the position of an important official and committed the acts of a rebel. This king orders you to act tonight and arrest the husband and his followers.”
"Right, Lu Buwei, I want him alive!”
The weather had changed!
When Ying Zheng gave the order, Zhang Han and Mao Xiang's expressions changed drastically. They were smart enough to know that Lu Buwei's good days were coming to an end.
However, they did not hesitate for long, and quickly accepted Ying Zheng's order. Then, they called the people from the Black Ice Platform and the Brocade Guard to walk out of the palace.
Ying Zheng, on the other hand, stood on the steps and looked at their departing figures. With his hands behind his back, he smiled and said,""After tonight, there will be no more internal strife in the Qin country!”
