When the officials left the Qilin Palace, they felt as if they had just woken up from a dream.
"The young master has made a decision for the First Emperor. I'm afraid he will be criticized by the Confucians.”
"I wonder what kind of expression Qin Shihuang will have when he finds out that Zhao Gao was killed by the young master.”
"The letter from His Majesty is most likely to cancel the Little Lord's responsibility of governing the country and let Young Master Fusu take over.”
"Who would have thought that an eight-year-old child would be so decisive?”
The ministers discussed in twos and threes.
He replaced the palace guards, killed Zhao Gao, and made the decision to collect military rations for the First Emperor.
These three things could only be described as audacious.
Especially the last one.
Even if Ying Zheng would make the same decision, he was the Emperor of Great Qin, and could ignore such a bad reputation. Even if he was criticized by the Confucians, his prestige would not be shaken.
However, Ying Zimo was still too young to take on such a responsibility, and it would not be proper for him to continue to stay in the position of Country Supervisor.
The scholarly faction definitely wouldn't let go of the opportunity to let Fusu manage the country and would definitely make an issue out of this matter.
.......
As expected.
What happened in court today quickly spread through the streets.
Immediately, rumors spread in Xianyang.
"The Nineteenth Young Master is so young, yet his methods are so brutal? He killed Zhao Gao based on his guess?”
"He actually used the food that was given to the people as military rations. This kind of behavior is simply putting the people in danger!”
"Great Qin will be in danger if we let Ying Zimo, this little demon, manage the country again!”
"Sigh, I wonder what the First Emperor is thinking. He actually let an eight-year-old child take on the responsibility of governing the country. Isn't he treating Great Qin's affairs as a child's play?”
"Even if Young Master Huhai were to be in charge of the country, he wouldn't have done such a disorderly thing!”
........
The rumors in the city and the matters of the court.
They were all recorded by the Black Ice Platform and sent to the east.
Bo Lang Sha.
The long procession of honor guards marched forward.
The royal guards surrounded the area, guarding the three identical carriages in the center.
The reason why there were three carriages was to confuse the assassins when they encountered an assassination.
However, Zhang Han, who had just received the secret report from Black Ice Platform, didn't go to the Middle Corps.
Instead, he went to the carriage of the minister that was following the army a few hundred meters behind.
Ying Zheng, dressed in a black robe, was sitting in the middle of it, reading a bamboo scroll in his hand.
He still changed to another carriage.
Even though he felt that the contents of the report letter were ridiculous.
However, there was a sentence in the book that he remembered: " Zhang Liang, Bo Lang Sha, assassinated the First Emperor, Ying Zheng. This man is a great talent and can be called a sage."
"Zhang Han, when we pass by Bo Langsha later, pick five hundred elite soldiers and ambush them in Bo Langsha to prevent any accidents.”
"Yes!"
Although Zhang Han didn't know why Brother Zheng suddenly gave this order, he didn't ask much. What he needed to do was to follow the Emperor's orders.
Thus, he immediately gave the order for the 500 armored soldiers to go first.
"Your Majesty, the Black Ice Platform has reported."
"Oh? Show it to me."
Ying Zheng's voice was filled with curiosity.
What he was concerned about was whether the person who wrote the bamboo slip had given himself away in the imperial court.
And Zhao Gao and Huhai?
Ying Zheng's gaze suddenly froze as he read out word by word,"
"Zimo ordered someone to kill Zhao Gao in court?”
Hearing this, the officials and Zhang Han were all stunned.
What the hell?
An eight-year-old young master was killed by Zhao Gao?
The Black Ice Platform didn't write nonsense, right?
Everyone's first reaction was disbelief. However, the person who had sent the record was Great Qin's most outstanding intelligence organization, the Black Ice Platform, so they could not make it up.
Therefore, this news was true.
All of them turned to look at Ying Zheng.
Everyone knew how much Zhao Gao was favored by the First Emperor. Even when he committed a capital crime, he was pardoned by the First Emperor.
Clearly, the First Emperor was also stunned and did not react for a moment.
"Why did Little Nineteen want to kill Zhao Gao?”
However, Ying Zheng was not enraged at first, but deeply puzzled.
Zimo had been obedient and sensible since he was young. He never acted recklessly like a little adult.
This was also the reason why Ying Zheng dared to let him supervise the country at the age of eight.
Moreover, Zhao Gao usually did not offend Little Nineteen in any way, so why did he kill Zhao Gao just because of a disagreement?
Brother Zheng could not figure it out.
He frowned deeply and opened the next bamboo scroll.
When he saw Ying Zimo giving the order on behalf of him to dispatch the grain to the Northern Frontier, his eyebrows were almost knitted together.
"Nonsense! Other than me, no one else can do this order. The ministers are all avoiding it, so why are you going up to it, Zimo?”
Ying Zheng threw the bamboo slip onto the table.
Not only did he fail to find out who wrote the report letter, but he also saw Ying Zimo's behavior. The first emperor was shocked and angry.
Why was Zimo doing this?
"Kill Tyrant Ying Zheng!"
"Kill Tyrant Ying Zheng!"
Shouts came from the cliff.
"Boom!"
A loud sound rang out.
"Assassins!"
"Protector beast! Protector!"
The horses and chariots in the middle army were in a mess for a moment, and shouts rose and fell everywhere.
The well-trained imperial guards rushed over in an instant and surrounded Ying Zheng.
Zhang Han's expression immediately tensed up. He looked at the few figures on the cliff disappearing into the forest with a serious expression.
"What happened?"
Ying Zheng was also startled, as he lifted the curtain and walked out.
"Your Majesty, there was an assassination attempt just now. A huge iron hammer was thrown on the cliff!”
"Zhongjun, one of the carriages you used to confuse us has been smashed into pieces.”
Zhang Han reported truthfully.
"Iron hammer? My carriage was smashed?"
Ying Zheng raised his sharp eyebrows." Go and see if the soldiers have caught anyone!”
"Yes!"
Zhang Han immediately led his men to search.
Ying Zheng was both shocked and furious as he looked at the smashed carriage.
At the same time, there was still some lingering fear.
If he had been in that carriage just now, he would probably be dead by now.
The contents of the report appeared in his mind.
"An assassination attempt on Bo Langsha?"
The contents of the report letter really came true.
