Xianyang, Zhangtai Palace.
The candlestick flickered with a faint candlelight, making it seem slightly dim.
In front of the table, Ying Zheng was reading the memorial.
They were all bamboo slips sent from all over the empire during the morning court session. They were all about the disputes that had occurred in various parts of the empire.
Now, in the world, there were plagues, droughts, floods, and traitors…
Although he ruled the world, the people of the world were suffering.
Riots broke out everywhere.
All these gave Ying Zheng, the one emperor in history, a headache.
"Cough cough cough…"
Ying Zheng coughed, rolled up the bamboo slips that had been approved on the table, and handed them to the eunuch beside him.
"Your Majesty, you must take care of your dragon body."
With that, the eunuch placed the bamboo slips on the scale, which was just right.
"Your Majesty, we have already reviewed a hundred catties of memorials today. It's time to rest.”
As if he had not heard anything, Ying Zheng opened another bamboo scroll.
In this way,
The eunuch did not say anything.
Accompanying a ruler was like accompanying a tiger, let alone the First Emperor who ruled the world.
If you're not careful, you'll lose your head.
Time flowed by quietly like water. In the blink of an eye, it was already late at night.
Looking at the last bamboo scroll, Ying Zheng's solemn expression eased up a lot.
Opening the bamboo slip, the tired Ying Zheng's eyes lit up, and he was instantly invigorated.
"Hahaha, good, good…"
Ying Zheng clapped his hands on the table and cheered.
"Your Majesty, what made you so happy?”
Previously, when he was reading the memorials, Ying Zheng had always been depressed, and the entire Zhangtai Palace was filled with an invisible killing intent.
It was as if Ying Zheng was going to explode in the next moment.
At this moment,
Ying Zheng's face lit up with a smile, and his killing intent vanished.
The eunuch also felt much more relaxed when he spoke.
"Ziheng has helped the Great Qin expand its territory.”
As he spoke, Ying Zheng handed the bamboo slip to the eunuch.
After the eunuch finished reading the contents, he turned pale with fright.
"The Sixth Young Master defeated the Hu with numbers and beheaded the Hu General Huyan Ting. He led 3,000 soldiers to kill more than 10,000 Hu and chased them for 50 kilometers, expanding Great Qin's territory by 50 kilometers.”
"Moreover, the three thousand soldiers are completely unharmed.”
Seeing this, the eunuch couldn't help but gasp.
Even Meng Tian, who was a god-like soldier, would not be able to face an army of tens of thousands of Hu without losing a single soldier.
This Sixth Young Master was simply godly.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty."
the eunuch said hurriedly.
"Hahaha…I think it's been five years since I last saw Ziheng.”
Ying Zheng stood with his hands behind his back, his pair of tiger eyes looking towards the north.
………
The next day.
The sun rose from the east, and the black flag fluttered.
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister requests an audience, saying that he has something to report.”
A eunuch entered the hall and stood respectfully beside Ying Zheng.
Hearing this,
Ying Zheng said softly,"
"Xuan."
After saying that, the eunuch quickly left the hall.
Soon, Li Si walked into Zhangtai Palace and stopped in front of the counter.
Li Si greets Your Majesty."
This person was Li Si, the Prime Minister of the Great Qin Empire. He was below one person and above tens of thousands of people, and he had supreme authority.
"Li Si, you're seeing me so early. What do you have to report?”
Ying Zheng's face was solemn. With just one look, he had fully displayed the majesty of an emperor.
Li Si did not dare to keep the Emperor in suspense and said bluntly,"
"Your Majesty, Ge Nia has defected."
It was only a whisper, but it had enraged Ying Zheng in an instant, and a mighty imperial pressure spread out in all directions.
"What did you say?"
Li Si was very calm, as if he had expected Ying Zheng to be furious.
If it was anyone else, they would have wet their pants in fear.
"Ge Nia defected."
Li Si said softly and calmly.
Ying Zheng's anger quickly subsided as he asked,"
"Where is he now?"
"Ge Nia has escaped from Xianyang."
Li Si replied.
Hearing this, Ying Zheng's cold eyes narrowed as he said,"
"Send someone to capture Ge Nia.”
"Yes."
After Li Si left Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng ordered the eunuch beside him,"
"Pass down the order that there will be no morning court today.”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After the eunuch left, Ying Zheng could not help but sigh.
Ever since he had ruled the world, although the chaos in the Central Plains had ceased, assassinations had occurred frequently.
In this world, there were countless people who wished for his death.
The rebels of the six states were restless. In recent years, the rebels had become more active and rampant.
With the Sword Saint Ge Nia in the palace, the rebels would still be a little wary.
In comparison, it was much safer.
Now, Sword Saint Ge Nia had betrayed him and left him. In the future, the traitors would be even more fearless.
In his early years, he went on expeditions everywhere. In addition, he worked hard day and night in recent years, leaving behind many hidden dangers in his body.
Lord Wu 'an, Baiqi, had fallen, and no one had found the Elixir of Immortality for him.
Fortunately, Yun Zhongjun, one of the five elders of the Yin-Yang School, had agreed to refine the Immortality Elixir for him.
However,
Many years had passed, but the Immortality Pill was still unsuccessful.
At that moment,
The matter of the Crown Prince was not confirmed, and his body was getting worse by the day.
Thinking of this, he could not help but feel sad.
"It's been five years. Ziheng can come back now.”
Ying Zheng sighed softly.
………
Waning Moon Valley.
"Ta…"
The sound of horse hooves rang out in the valley.
The yellow sand that the warhorses kicked up filled the sky, confusing everyone's eyes.
In the yellow sand, a man wearing a bamboo hat was stopped by three hundred cavalry.
"They caught up so quickly?"
The man in the bamboo hat stood in the yellow sand. There seemed to be an invisible wind blowing the yellow sand around him.
Not a single grain of sand fell on his body.
"Mr. Ge Nia, please come back with us.”
The commander of the three hundred cavalry stepped forward and respectfully said to Ge Nia.
Ge Nia, the world-renowned Sword Saint.
The successor of the Phantom Valley Sword Technique.
The 300 cavalry were all fierce generals who fought on the battlefield. They were filled with killing intent. They were once existences that the enemy army trembled in fear.
But now…
They faced Ge Nia with serious expressions, as if they were a little timid.
After all, they were facing the successor of Phantom Valley, who could make the vassals fear him when he was angry and bring peace to the world.
"Since I have already left Xianyang, I will not return with you. General, please return.”
Ge Nia's expression was cold as he continued,
"I still have things to do, so I won't chat.”
"I was ordered to capture you, sir. How could I return empty-handed?”
The general knew that it was useless to persuade him, so he could only capture him by force.
At this moment,
Ge Nia raised his head slightly and stared at the general with a pair of cold eyes. In an instant, a strong killing intent surged.
"You can try."
