"Ying Qi patrolled the east on behalf of me, but my Spiderweb Six Sword Servants secretly assassinated my son."
In Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng's majestic voice rang out. Li Si, who was kneeling on the ground, looked respectful.
"This matter has already reached His Majesty's ears so quickly?”
"I wonder if the assassination was successful.”
Li Si had been waiting for news from the Six Sword Servants, but they were like stones sinking into the ocean, never to be heard from again.
He thought for a moment and asked with concern,"Your Majesty, is the Ninth Young Master well?"
"My son is as good as ever!"
"On the contrary, the six Sword Servants were all killed!”
Ying Zheng laughed coldly and said in his heart,""Who in the world is a match for the Deva from the land?”
"The celestial being from the land used himself as bait and personally became a fishing geezer. Is this what he meant by pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger?”
He completely understood.
Sitting on the fishing platform, waiting for the fish to come.
My son Ying Qi has a far-reaching plan
However!
The spider web man's attack was beyond Ying Zheng's expectations.
He suddenly turned around and stared at Li Si." Li Si, do you know about this?"
Li Si's forehead was already covered in sweat from being stared at like that.
"I don't know about this."
"Ever since that Zhao Gao was executed, the Spider Web has just been handed over to me. Everything has yet to be reorganized."
He thought for a moment and quickly added," Zhao Gao has been secretly running the Spider Web for so many years. Naturally, he has many trusted aides. Perhaps the Six Sword Servants heard of Zhao Gao's death and hated His Majesty."”
"However, they did not dare to attack Your Majesty. They could only target the Ninth Young Master who was patrolling the east on your behalf.”
"That makes sense."
Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes and nodded, but the killing intent in his eyes was not lacking at all.
"From today onwards, Li Si, you don't have to control the spider web anymore.”
"You may leave."
Li Si's heart skipped a beat as he smiled bitterly.
The spider web in his hands had not even warmed up, and it was gone just like that?
After Li Si left, Ying Zheng gave an order to Zhang Han, who was hiding in the dark," Tell me, who was the one who secretly instigated the assassination of Ying Qi?”
Do you think it's Li Si?"
Zhang Han's pupils constricted. After a moment of silence, he shook his head and said,"This subordinate does not know."
"But according to the investigation of the shadow guards, these days, Young Master Fusu's and Young Master Huhai's men are moving more frequently in Xianyang City.”
"Oh?"
"Ying Qi's assassination might have something to do with the two of them?”
Ying Zheng slammed his hand on the table and ordered,""Go to the name list and find the officials who have submitted to the two sides. Find a crime and kill a batch of them from each side first.”
"Yes."
.......
When he returned to the mansion, Li Si realized that his back was drenched.
Huhai was already waiting for them. He asked,""Prime Minister, did the Six Sword Servants send any news back?”
"No need to wait."
Li Si grabbed the tea on the table and drank it in one gulp. He panted heavily and said,""Ying Qi is safe and sound, but the Six Sword Servants are all dead!”
"What?"
"Impossible!"
Huhai couldn't stay calm anymore. He stood up abruptly.
"Rank-9 experts, the six Sword Servants, and the six of them could kill a Grandmaster together. How could they die?”
"It shouldn't be. Ying Qi is only at the peak of Rank-9.”
"Could it be that he has stepped into the Grandmaster Realm in just a few days?”
Li Si pondered and slowly said,""There's another possibility. He already has the strength of a grandmaster or above!”
"This is the only way to explain why the Sword Saint suddenly died. Even if he didn't do it, he had some credit.”
"This is the only way to explain why he was suddenly favored by His Majesty and became a candidate for the Eastern Patrol.”
"He, he became a Grandmaster after ten years of silence?”
"I've just stepped into Rank-9. I've just stepped into Rank-9."
Huhai looked terrified.
"No, he must die! You must die!"
With hatred in his eyes, he turned to Li Si and said,""There is no turning back. I can only ascend to the throne after he dies.”
"Only then will the power in the hands of the Prime Minister be preserved forever!”
Li Si shook his head,"His Majesty suddenly took back control of the spider web from me."
"He suspects me!"
"The best choice is for you and me to do nothing.”
"Nothing? No, absolutely not! This is not my personality!" Huhai's eyes were filled with madness.
Li Si cursed in his heart. With how brainless Huhai was, he was probably going to ruin himself.
He sighed helplessly." Young Master Huhai, don't be impatient. Just because you don't do anything doesn't mean you can't do great things."”
"As long as we spread the news that Ninth Young Master Ying Qi has the strength of a Grandmaster or above,"
"We don't need to do anything."
"Spread his strength? What use is that?"
"What is the Prime Minister's intention?"
Huhai was confused.
Li Si glanced at him with a tired expression and explained,""This is because the remnants of the six countries and the various factions do not want Great Qin to have such a heaven-defying figure."
......
Several days later.
Wu Zhao, who was doing her duty as a servant, carried two wild rabbits. Seeing Lord Yuehua walking over from afar, he asked,"Didn't you go to catch pheasants? Why are you empty-handed?"
These days.
She had profited greatly.
Because she suddenly realized that the work she was doing now was no different from before she became a servant girl.
They were just catching wild animals and picking up branches and firewood.
He had earned two peerless medicinal pills for nothing.
It was worth it! It was worth it!
"Mei Niang." Lord Yuehua walked over and reported with a solemn expression,"There's news regarding the Great Qin's Ninth Young Master Ying Qi's joint defense.”
"Hmm?"
Hearing this name, Wu Zhao became spirited. He smiled and said,""Tell me."
"The joint defense stationed in Xianyang City of the Great Qin Empire has reported that Ying Qi, the ninth son of the Great Qin Empire, might have the strength of a grandmaster or above!"”
Hearing this, Wu Zhao's smile froze.
