Ximen Chuixue's arrival could be said to have cut off the last trace of hope for the aristocrats.
He was at the peak of the grandmaster realm, and he had forced these assassins of the Iron-Blood Alliance to retreat with a single strike of his sword. Then, he cupped his hands towards Ying Zheng and said,""Protector Ximen is late, please punish me!”
"Ximen, why are you here? Didn't I order you to guard the Orchid Pool Palace?”
"All because of a letter from the Empress!" After saying that, Ximen Chuixue passed the letter to Ying Zheng.
Taking the envelope, Ying Zheng immediately read through it. When he saw that it was written by Concubine Yan and read her words, Ying Zheng gave a rare gentle smile.
"What a good Qin country can do without you, but it can't do without this king!”
After sighing with emotion, Ying Zheng carefully put away the letter, and then his face turned cold.
"I'll leave the Iron Blood Alliance to you. Take them out to fight. My Zhangtai Palace is very expensive to repair.”
"Here!"
Baiguan: Is this the time to be concerned about this?!
Bai Liang and the others were so arrogant!
Meng Ao and the others thought, As expected of the King of Qin!
Upon hearing Ying Zheng's words, everyone's expressions changed. However, they were not given the chance to be stunned for too long. They saw Ximen Chuixue move in a flash, luring all of them out.
Only Baiguan, Bai Liang, Wang Jian, Meng Ao, and the others were left in Zhangtai Palace.
"My King!"
"Don't worry, they can't hurt this king!”
At this moment, Ying Zheng walked out from the protection of the guards. Zhang Han was so frightened that he reminded them. However, he waved his hand, signaling them to stay calm, and then walked out of the encirclement.
"Stomp!" "Stomp!" "Stomp!"
Step by step, Ying Zheng walked down the stairs. The entire Zhangtai Palace could hear the sound of his footsteps, and as he walked, everyone's hearts were on tenterhooks.
Beside him, Mao Xiang and Zhang Han followed closely behind. Not long after, Wang Jian and Meng Ao came over and replaced their positions.
A group of people arrived in front of these people, especially the baleful aura that Wang Jian and the others emitted, scaring the various Shi clan representatives into slowly retreating.
"Go back!"
"Don't move!"
But they had not retreated a few steps when they were stopped by the guards that Wang Jian and the others had brought.
Since things had come to this, it was impossible to let things go peacefully. Therefore, the guards were not worried about offending them. Some of them kept retreating and even threatened them with weapons before they were finally stopped.
" What are you doing?!"
Seeing Ying Zheng approaching, Bai Liang's face turned pale, and his body trembled slightly, because he could feel the pressure of a king's might, making him unable to breathe.
"Kneel down!"
"Plop!"
Instead of answering Bai Liang's question, Ying Zheng uttered a cold sentence, which instantly frightened him into kneeling down. His straightforwardness made those who were watching him kneel down feel pain in their knees.
"Mao Xiang, what crime did Bai Liang commit?"
"Colluding with the rebels, causing chaos in the court, and assassinating the King of Qin.”
"How?"
"Che Lie, exterminate the three clans, kill the men and prostitutes, and become slaves for generations!”
"Kill them!"
"Here! Take him away!"
Hearing Ying Zheng's order, Mao Xiang immediately ordered the Brocade Guard to take Bai Liang away.
At this moment, Bai Liang knew that he was going to die for sure, but when he saw Ying Zheng right in front of him, he immediately glared at Ying Zheng and said,""Ying Zheng, you Ying family are so vicious. My great-grandfather fought for you, but you killed him out of fear.”
"I hate it! I hate it!"
"Bang!" "Bang!" Bang!
Just as he stood up and was about to scold Ying Zheng, those Brocade Guards had already walked up to him and started beating him up. After breaking his limbs, Bai Liang was dragged away obediently.
"Hahaha!"
He was dragged away by the Embroidered Uniform Guards. Bai Liang laughed crazily, as if he was giving himself a heroic act, or perhaps he was singing the last elegy for the aristocrats and nobles.
"Great King, please spare my life!"
"Great King, spare my life!"
After seeing Bai Liang's miserable state, many aristocrats begged for mercy.
They had been arrogant before, but now they were in a sorry state. After seeing Bai Liang's ending, the remaining representatives of the aristocratic families immediately begged for mercy. They all cried, as if they felt that they would be let off.
In fact, this was also the result that they had not expected. They did not expect that Ying Zheng would have such a powerful warrior by his side, and that he would be prepared to wait for them to come over, so that they would fall into the trap in the end.
The things he said last night were all daydreams.
Whether it was right or wrong, merits or demerits, the hearts of the people were determined, and the weight of good and evil was determined by the King of Hell!
They knew that after today, they would be famous in the world. As for whether it was good or bad, they did not know. In the end, they just wanted to protect their own interests.
This time, it was Ying Zheng's decision that had turned them into enemies.
Confession, the more damage.
Rebellion, no one knows.
Therefore, they made this choice, and the result was right in front of them.
However, Ying Zheng's expression did not change at all in response to their pleas for mercy. He asked Mao Xiang questions one by one, and one by one, he was crippled and taken away. Soon, only two people were left in this group.
Ying Qi, Ying Lang.
"Uncles Zong, you…"
"King Ying, it was my fault. I shouldn't have believed in slanderous words. I shouldn't have made such a choice. I admit my mistake. I'm guilty, but please forgive me on account that we're both from the Ying Shi lineage.”
"Great King, I don't dare to do it anymore, I really don't dare to!”
Before Ying Zheng could speak. Ying Qi and Ying Lang immediately knelt down and begged for mercy. They were worried that the moment Ying Zheng opened his mouth, he would ask about Mao Xiang's crimes.
At that time, they would not even have the chance to beg for mercy, so they took the initiative.
"Haha!"
They had a good plan, but Ying Zheng, who was obviously not going to let them off, sneered. However, he did not ask Mao Xiang any more questions, but gave Zhang Han an order instead.
"Zhang Han, go find a scale, remember to make it bigger, and prepare two golden sabers!”
"Here!"
Hearing Ying Zheng's order, Zhang Han immediately left. The others looked at him in confusion.
"What do you think the king is planning to do?”
"How would I know? But I hope you understand one thing. The King will not let these two people off.”
"Then those of us who have just spoken,"
"Pray, pray that the king won't kill us.”
At this moment, while they were waiting, many people were muttering in low voices, discussing their fate. Many of them had some relationship with the Shi clan.
Some of them didn't have a deep relationship, some of them were close friends, some of them knew about today's situation, but there were also some who were completely used.
In any case, he could not get away with it.
Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity, many people were discussing in low voices. Seeing that Ying Zheng did not care, they were relieved, but they did not dare to raise their voices, and kept their voices at a certain volume.
"Your Majesty, the scales have arrived."
"Put it in front of the two of them. Also, give them the saber.”
"Here!"
Zhang Han's voice rang out, immediately stopping the discussion. Then, they turned their gazes over, curious about what Ying Zheng would do next.
"Stomp!" "Stomp!"
They saw Ying Zheng walking in the middle of the hall, and finally stopping in front of them. He smiled and said,""The two uncles have watched this king grow up. To be honest, even this king did not expect that you would stand on the opposite side of this king.”
"But there's no other way. Rules are rules, but thinking about the fact that the two uncles are people of the winning style, this king can't bear to kill you.”
"This scale is the weight of your survival. Whoever cuts off their own flesh will live.”
"Whoosh!"
As soon as Ying Zheng's words came out, the entire imperial court felt a chill run down their spines. They had never seen or heard of such a terrifying punishment, and the fear they felt towards Ying Zheng grew even more.
Seemingly sensing the gazes of these people, Ying Zheng smiled coldly, then turned to them and said,""Ministers, what do you think?”
How was it?
that must
"Good! The king's actions were benevolent, allowing them to choose whether to live or not to show their benevolence!”
"Your Majesty is truly a model for understanding Zong Shi.”
"Now let's see which of the two of you can let me go. This is simply the best way to monitor the character of others.”
“....”
F * ck your sister. You said you weren't tired, but you did it!
Hearing these people's bullsh * t, Ying Lang and Ying Qi wanted to curse out loud, but when they saw Ying Zheng here, they did not say anything.
As for Ying Zheng, he nodded in satisfaction, because he was using this method to remind all the officials who had the final say in Qin.
As expected, no one dared to say that this method was bad.
In the end, Great Qin will still have the final say!
