Although Zijin's words were extremely calm, when they fell into the ears of everyone present, it still made their hearts tremble.
The invisible power almost made the onlookers gasp for breath.
They looked at Zijin in a daze. They knew exactly what Zijin meant.
Young Master Zijin was about to kill someone.
Some people who had seen Zi Jin burn books and bury scholars could not help but gasp.
They seemed to have seen a replica of Zijin killing the Confucian scholars and burning the books.
Didn't Young Master Zijin give a similar promise back then?
It was just that the Confucian scholar didn't look for good or bad, which was why he was killed.
And now, was the same thing going to happen to the nobles of the old Yan Dynasty?
With this thought, a sense of fear spread in the hearts of these people.
If Young Master Zijin really did this, then the number of people he killed would definitely turn this area into a hell.
Its influence would definitely far exceed the burning of books and burying of scholars.
"This…Young Master wouldn't really do that, right? This is too crazy."
"I also think that it's very likely that it's just to scare these old Yan nobles. It's a form of warning to these people, to make them more obedient.”
"If it wasn't for the burning of books and burying of Confucian scholars, I would think the same as you. But after what happened before, I feel that our Young Master is decisive in killing.”
"This…something big is going to happen."
For a moment, many onlookers could not help but mutter to themselves. When they looked at Zi Jin, their eyes were filled with fear.
The nobles of the old Yan Dynasty were also furious.
They all looked at Zijin angrily. Zijin's casual attitude made it seem as if they were chickens and ducks that could be killed at will.
For a moment, these people were already cursing Zijin in their hearts.
However, they could only endure it now. They knew very well that if they acted rashly at this time, they would only become targets for slaughter.
Helpless, they felt rather aggrieved in their hearts.
The things that ordinary people could think of, as the head of the old Yan family, he could naturally think of them too.
Ji Chen's breathing became heavy.
His brows were furrowed into a knot. When he looked at Zijin, his expression was filled with dissatisfaction.
However, what made him feel even more embarrassed and annoyed was that when Zijin looked at him, his gaze was still extremely calm, as if he was looking at an animal.
Zi Jin looked around indifferently. He was naturally aware of the anger of the old Yan nobles around him, but he did not care.
He liked to see people who knew that they hated him to death and wanted to kill him, but didn't dare to move at all.
"My patience is limited. Ji Chen, do you want to learn from those Confucian scholars? This young master will advise you not to make mistakes!”
Zijin's words were extremely cold.
When Ji Chen heard this, the anger in his heart surged out.
But in the end, he still endured it and cupped his hands in salute to Zijin.
"Young Master, I respect you as Great Qin's Prince, which is why I'm so polite in front of you. However, you keep forcing me; Do you really think that we nobles of the old kingdom are easy to bully?”
As soon as he said this, the old nobles from the other countries frowned and looked dissatisfied.
Zi Jin knew very well that Ji Chen was saying this because he wanted to rope in the old nobles from other countries and form a camp to force him to leave.
However, in Zijin's eyes, this kind of behavior was completely ridiculous.
"Back then, we were willing to submit to Great Qin, and His Majesty was willing to let us live. That was why he allowed us to migrate here and promised us a stable life. Now, Young Master, you want to kill us because of someone who doesn't belong to our old noble families.”
Seeing Zi Jin's current expression, Ji Chen immediately gritted his teeth and raised his voice.
"Moreover, if Young Master kills us now, outsiders will only think that this was instructed by His Majesty. Do you want His Majesty to break his promise to the world?”
"If that's the case, we can just stand here and let Young Master kill us. After all, our lives were left behind by His Majesty. Now that His Majesty wants to take them back, we naturally can't resist.”
After Ji Chen finished speaking, he immediately puffed out his chest and raised his head, looking proud.
However, the moment he finished speaking, the surroundings fell into a stifling silence.
Even the commoners could see the problem now.
Zi Jin nodded slightly. When he looked at Ji Chen, there was a hint of mockery in his eyes.
This old fellow was quite capable.
He was using a method of retreating to force himself not to make a move.
At this moment, he even brought up the First Emperor.
Making the First Emperor bear the infamy was definitely a heinous matter.
If Zi Jin dared to kill these old Yan nobles, then even if he was a prince, he would be furious with the First Emperor and would die in the end.
