"Right, now that kid is trying his best to implement the new law, we won't let him have his way and think of a way to ruin it for him!”
"This can also extinguish his arrogance. He might retreat halfway when he knows that things are difficult!”
"This is a good idea, but on the surface, we still have to obey orders. Otherwise, it won't be easy for His Majesty. But in the dark, it depends on our methods!”
"I have an idea now. During the next morning court session, we will ask him for money and food together.”
"Yes! Make things difficult for him, torture him, let him know that we are not to be trifled with!”
"As long as he can endure it, when the time comes and his new decree is ineffective, His Majesty will not continue to spoil him!”
"When the time comes, don't blame everyone for pushing you when you're down!”
……
After some discussion, the officials finally made up their minds.
"My lord! Bad news!"
"There are armored soldiers surrounding the mansion!”
Just as everyone was secretly vindictive and complacent, a servant suddenly barged in in a panic and reported to Li Si.
"What did you say?"
"I, Li Si, am the current Prime Minister. Who dares to surround the Prime Minister's residence?”
Li Si was stunned for a moment before he burned with rage!
He was Li Si, and in the entire Great Qin Empire, apart from Ying Zheng, who else was he afraid of?
They dared to surround his mansion. They were really tired of living!
Seeing Li Si's anger, the servant was scared out of his wits, but he still said it.
"Sir, it's Zhang Han and Wang Ben who surrounded the mansion!”
"They have led the armored soldiers of the army to completely surround the Prime Minister's residence.”
"Especially the family members and servants in the residence. If they dare to take a step out of the door, kill them on the spot!”
At this moment, a general beside him had a face full of disbelief.
"They brought their soldiers into Xianyang City without permission. Are they rebelling?”
"His Majesty has decreed that no armored soldiers can enter Xianyang without the emperor's order!”
"Now, they're privately mobilizing heavy troops and blatantly rebelling!”
At this moment, another official spoke slowly with a worried expression.
"Is it possible that this is His Majesty's intention?”
As soon as this sentence came out, everyone present felt a chill down their spines!
If it was really Ying Zheng's order, then everything was over!
He saw that the ministers in the court were analyzing him without waiting for him to finish speaking.
"It's not like that. Zhang Han said that they were under the orders of the Ninth Prince!"”
"Also, let this lowly one pass on a message. In at most two months, if it is not done, the entire Prime Minister's Estate will be beheaded!”
After the servant finished speaking, before the ministers could start to be shocked.
A large number of butlers and servants from other mansions rushed into the room, all of them looking flustered.
Some of them even started crying when they barged in.
"Milord, it's over, it's all over. Our residence has been surrounded by soldiers!”
"Old Master, please go back and take a look. Our residence is full of soldiers!”
"Milord, something big has happened. It's a huge matter. Our residence has been surrounded so tightly that not even water can seep through!”
……
After seeing their respective butlers and servants, the ministers instantly tensed up, but they still forced themselves to remain calm.
"What are you panicking about? Tell me in detail!"
"As the housekeeper of this master's residence, wouldn't it be a joke to be so flustered?”
As the current Right Prime Minister, Feng Jie bellowed at the butler in his residence.
"Old Master, it's like this. Everything was normal at first. This lowly one went out to buy some things, and when I returned, I saw a large group of armored soldiers surrounding the residence!”
"Each of them drew their long sabers out of their sheaths, and their killing intent was dense. They also strictly prohibited the family members of the residence from taking a step out of the door, or they would be killed on the spot!”
"This lowly one mustered up the courage to go up and ask, and learned that this was an order from the Imperial Court!”
"In a hurry, I can only report to Old Master!”
……
"Milord, the situation in our residence is similar to Prime Minister Feng's residence.”
"However, this lowly one has also been ordered to pass a message to Old Master. If Old Master fails to do his job, the entire residence will be beheaded!”
"The old master was too old to be frightened. He mistakenly thought that His Majesty was going to confiscate the house and fainted on the ground, directly dying!”
The butlers and servants who rushed in talked at once and finally explained the matter.
It was Ying Ziyun's order to surround their entire mansion!
Within two months, if the new decree was not carried out, everyone in the residence would be killed!
The mansions that were surrounded had one thing in common, and that was that their masters were all opposing the new law!
"It's really over. The lives of dozens of people in my family are in Ying Ziyun's hands.”
"That's right, human lives are at stake. If this continues, this old man will really end up with my entire family being executed!”
After receiving the news, a few officials immediately cowered.
