Seeing Huhai barging into the hall, Ying Zheng's expression turned slightly displeased.
However, Huhai was his favorite son, so he didn't reprimand him.
"Huhai, what happened?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Father!"
"My teacher, Zhao Gao, was killed in broad daylight in his own residence.”
Huhai cried.
"What?"
"The Zhongche Prefecture Magistrate was killed?"
Huhai's voice caused a storm in the hall.
All the officials present were shocked.
Although the official position of the Zhongche Prefecture Magistrate was not high, he was still an official of the court. Moreover, he was an official who was specially in charge of the King of Qin's carriage.
In Xianyang City, there was actually someone who dared to kill an official of the imperial court in broad daylight. This was simply audacious.
Even the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, had a dark expression on his face, and a hint of anger could be seen on his face.
"Who is so bold as to kill the Zhongche Prefecture Magistrate in Xianyang City?”
Ying Zheng's face was cold, and his furious voice rang out slowly.
"Father!"
"The person who killed my teacher, Zhao Gao, was none other than my second brother.”
Huhai looked at Ying Ziyu and angrily complained.
"What?"
"It's Second Young Master!"
The hall was in an uproar. The officials present were shocked by Huhai's words.
Many people didn't understand why Ying Ziyu wanted to kill Zhao Gao.
However, they knew that if Zhao Gao was really killed by the Second Young Master, then the Second Young Master would be in big trouble.
"Huhai, you said that Zhao Gao was killed by Ziyu, do you have any evidence?”
Ying Zheng didn't believe that Ying Ziyu was the one who had done this. He looked at Huhai with a stern gaze and asked.
"Your Majesty, everyone in the Zhao Residence can testify for your son.”
"They saw with their own eyes that my second brother killed my teacher.”Huhai said.
"Ziyu, is what Huhai said true?”
Ying Zheng looked at Ying Ziyu and asked.
"That's right."
"Zhao Gao, I killed him."
Ying Ziyu didn't hide anything and directly admitted it.
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire hall exploded.
Many people were shocked and terrified.
"Your Majesty, although the Second Young Master's martial arts are powerful, his murderous nature is too strong. He killed an official of the Imperial Court without authorization.”
Chunyu Yue immediately said.
"Second Young Master killed an official of the Imperial Court in broad daylight. He has no respect for the law and is lawless. I beg Your Majesty to punish him severely!”
Dr. Shu Suntong also spoke carefully.
"I agree!"
Professor Zhou Qingchen agreed.
Chunyu Yue, Shu Suntong, Zhou Qingchen, and the other professors were the eldest son's staunchest supporters.
Seeing such a good opportunity to suppress Ying Ziyu, they naturally wouldn't let it go.
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
……
For a moment, most of the officials present actually agreed.
These civil and military officials were divided into their own factions. Many of them were supporters of Eldest Young Master Fu Su, some of them were supporters of Young Master Gao, and some of them were supporters of Young Master Jiang Lu.
Of course, some of them were Young Master Huhai's supporters.
No matter whose supporters they were, their goal was surprisingly the same at this moment, which was to suppress Ying Ziyu as much as possible.
Because Ying Ziyu had already become a threat to the Young Master they supported.
With such a good opportunity, they naturally couldn't wait to make Ying Ziyu fall to the bottom of the valley and lose the chance to become the Crown Prince.
Ying Ziyu had no foundation in the imperial court, so very few officials stood up for him.
There were also some officials who feared Ying Ziyu.
Today, Ying Ziyu could kill Zhao Gao without asking for any reason.
In the future, who knew if Ying Ziyu would kill them?
Therefore, they all wanted Ying Ziyu to be consigned to eternal damnation, never to be able to make a comeback.
At this moment.
In the court.
Ying Ziyu had already angered everyone by killing Zhao Gao.
"Your Majesty, I think we should give Second Young Master a chance to explain himself.”
"Second Young Master would never kill the Zhongche Prefecture Magistrate for no reason. Your Majesty, why don't you ask the reason?”
At this moment, Li Si, the chief justice of the Supreme Court suddenly stood out and said.
Ying Ziyu was a little surprised. He didn't expect Li Si to stand up for him.
"Ziyu, why did you kill Zhao Gao?”
"You better give me a good reason!”
Ying Zheng looked at Ying Ziyu with a burning gaze and said in a dignified voice.
"Father!"
"On the way back to Xianyang, your son encountered a large-scale hunt!”
"There were about a thousand killers in that large-scale hunt.”
"To be able to mobilize a thousand assassins in the world and clearly know my son's movements.”
"Only the State of Qin's Network Organization!"
"And Zhao Gao is the leader of the Network!”
"This is the first!"
"Secondly, the Network Organization has a first-class killer named Startling Salamander.”
"Zhao Gao actually ordered Startling Salamander to pretend to be a palace maid and hide beside this son, waiting for an opportunity to kill this son.”
Ying Ziyu said slowly with a calm expression.
"Zhao Gao actually dared to kill the Young Master of the State of Qin!”
Hearing this, Ying Zheng's dignified face turned a little cold, and a cold and sharp light flashed across his eyes.
This Zhao Gao actually dared to kill his son. Even if he died a hundred times, he would not regret it.
