Hearing this news!
The Moon Goddess didn't even try to hide her surprise!
No one knew better than her what would happen to a traitor. With the current power of the Yin-Yang School, even if Lady Yan was once the Eastern Monarch, she would not be able to escape!
Lady Yan understood this more than she did!
Who gave her the confidence to do this?
However, before she could think of a reason, Donghuang Taiyi spoke again,
"Moon Goddess, why have you returned today?”
Shaking her head slightly, Yueshen pushed the matter of Lady Yan out of her mind. She bowed and said in her usual cold voice,
"Before the assassination last night was completed, the spies of my Yin-Yang School were inexplicably targeted by the net.”
"Donghuang, what do you think we should do about this?”
The Moon Goddess paused for a moment before hesitantly saying,
"Could it be that His Majesty is going to make another big move? Shouldn't we make preparations?"
"A net?"
Donghuang Taiyi let out a soft sound of surprise and revealed a puzzled expression. Then, he placed his hands slightly in front of him and pondered for a moment before saying,
"No need."
"If His Majesty wanted to purge them, he definitely wouldn't be so petty or probe them because of the assassination…”
"Then we won't do anything?"
The Moon Goddess paused for a moment before speaking softly.
"Heh,"
Putting his hands behind his back, Donghuang Taiyi chuckled.
"That person's thoughts are hard to predict, but Zhao Gao, a mere eunuch, dares to work so hard, then..."
"I'll kill until his heart aches."
"Yes, sir!"
"By the way, how's Cloud Sovereign doing?”
Yueshen was slightly stunned when she heard Donghuang Taiyi's question.
"Xu Fu?"
"Yes."
Donghuang Taiyi nodded slightly.
"We've already given him enough time. If he's ready, then let him prepare to act.”
"That nineteenth prince cannot be allowed to continue like this.”
"Yes."
The Moon Goddess bowed slightly and quickly disappeared into the shadows.
The aura in Donghuang Taiyi's hand circulated, and a Qi shape like a five-clawed golden dragon's broken body flew around him. As he slowly waved his hand, the dragon shape disappeared in the void again.
"Your luck is broken. Ying Zheng, how much longer can you hold on?”
"How much luck does Great Qin have left?”
The next day, in the imperial court of Xianyang.
The ministers all took their positions, their expressions strange. The entire court was filled with an indescribable atmosphere, and there was no lack of whispers among the close ministers!
"I heard that a few days ago, the Wang Clan's Di daughter went to the Nineteenth Imperial Residence and was almost assassinated!”
"What is it? The talented lady of Xianyang who was regarded as a treasure by the entire Wang Clan? There was actually an assassin who dared to assassinate her? Are you crazy?"
"Of course. I heard that His Majesty was furious because of this, so he ordered a thorough investigation and even delayed the morning court!”
"Tsk tsk, the scholarly faction has just lost its power, yet someone could not help but attack the nineteenth prince. Looks like today's court meeting will be lively…"
"Who cares? We will just quietly watch the situation…"
....
Wang Jian, Wang Ben, and the other generals stood aside with gloomy faces.
Li Si, Zhao Gao, and the others were also unusually silent. Although Huhai tried his best to hide it, there was still a hint of nervousness in his eyes.
After Zhao Gao lost his position as the commander of the network, he had already passed the news to Li Si and Huhai.
But to be honest, this price was still within their acceptable range!
Although he was no longer the commander of the Network, Zhao Gao had been in the Network for many years and had a deep foundation. He could still mobilize his trusted aides!
And what they were going to do today was to divert the trouble!
Disrupting the situation!
To govern benevolence with human hearts!
It was the path that Li Si, a Legalist, was good at!
In stark contrast to Huhai, Ying Tian stood at the center of the vortex.
As usual, he held his sword and drank wine, as if he was heartless. It made people wonder if the person who scolded the group of scholars yesterday was really this youth?
Pa! Pa!
Ying Zheng swept his gaze across the crowd below him. When he saw Ying Tian, he seemed to feel a little helpless, but also a little distressed.
He slowly sat down, and the coldness in his eyes gradually appeared. He softly said,
"I believe all of you have heard of the recent events.”
"I still think that Xianyang is the safest place in the world.”
"However, there were people from the Mo family who wanted to cause chaos in Xianyang. Then, there were assassins who assassinated the prince and the general's daughter in broad daylight!”
"I want to ask, I want you to guard Xianyang, and this is how you protect it?!”
Speaking of this, the Ancestral Dragon's words were already bone-chilling! Killing intent was revealed!
Plop!
Everyone in the imperial court was instantly terrified! All of them knelt down in unison!
Was His Majesty going to start a massacre?
Pa!
As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, Wang Ben stepped out! His face was filled with hatred and pain!
"Your Majesty, my Wang family is responsible for not investigating this matter! He had almost made a huge mistake! I hope Your Majesty will punish me!"
"Although you have suffered, you should distinguish between public and private matters. Your Majesty, please don't show mercy!”
Seeing Wang Ben's regretful face, the others were dumbfounded.
Even Li Si and Zhao Gao's faces froze!
What was he doing? What was he doing?
What was going on?
His Majesty wanted to question the guards of Xianyang and the officials supervising the court. What did it have to do with a general guarding the border?
Moreover, your Wang Clan was assassinated. Did your brain get kicked by a donkey, so you couldn't help but come and take the blame?!
Seeing this scene, Ying Tian Du couldn't help but be slightly stunned. In the blink of an eye, he understood the cause and effect. He couldn't help but turn his head and coincidentally saw Wang Jian's eyes that were filled with deep meaning.
"What an old fox."
Laughing softly in his heart, Ying Tian gave Wang Jian an imperceptible nod.
Pa!
Pa!
"Good!"
Ying Zheng knocked on the armrest of the Dragon Throne lightly, as he could roughly guess what Wang Ben was thinking.
Asking for punishment, was this to help Little Nineteen gain momentum? Shock the tiger?
Even the victim, the Wang family, had pleaded guilty. How could the others have the face to refuse to explain?
Since the Wang Clan had such determination, he naturally did not mind pushing it again!
"General Wang Ben, since you've made up your mind!"
"Then I'll punish you with half a year's salary! He was demoted by half a jue! As an example!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty! I accept my punishment!"
Wang Ben stood up and returned to his formation, standing in stark contrast to the rest of the people who were still lying on the ground.
"Do you have anything else to say?”
The Ancestral Dragon lightly knocked on the armrest and spoke in a dignified manner.
Hiss!
Everyone gasped in their hearts. This was forcing them to express their stance!
It wasn't just because of the assassination. Today's court meeting seemed to be to beat the ministers!
When they thought about it further, a few quick-witted people couldn't help but cast their gazes at Ying Tian, who was still acting like he didn't notice anything!
Seeing the actions of the officials below the stage, Ancestral Dragon could not help but sneer in his heart. He swept his gaze across the crowd and slowly fixed his gaze on Li Si. He suddenly said,
"Prime Minister, do you have any ideas?"
