"Your Majesty, we can't delay any longer!"
Feng Quji said," After all, Julu belongs to the territory of Zhao, not Xianyang. Your Majesty has been touring the east for a long time, so it's time to return to Xianyang!”
"Your Majesty, please return to the palace!"
When the officials heard this, they all followed suit.
"En, good. Zhen is still a little tired now. Just wait a few days. When Zhen recovers, I will return to the palace!”
"Yes!"
Turning around, all the officials dispersed, and Ying Zheng left the Wang father and son, as well as Li Si, behind.
"Old General, this time, I have to thank you properly!”
"Your Majesty, what is this old minister Xie doing?"
When Wang Jian heard this, he said in fear," In the end, this old subject also has his own selfish motives. Your Majesty doesn't need to thank this subject. Instead, it's this subject who should seek forgiveness from Your Majesty.”
"Sigh, you don't know that Wang Ben has been following my orders!”
Ying Zheng smiled and said," You shouldn't blame him. If he had told us about it in advance, I'm afraid the old general wouldn't have come…"
"This…"
What was that?
So this was all arranged by the Emperor?
When Wang Jian heard this, he immediately said," My son is crude, but he has the trust of His Majesty. This old subject is terrified! My Wang family can serve His Majesty. Even if I die ten thousand times, I won't regret it at all!”
"Hehe, you're too polite, old general!"
Ying Zheng laughed," I have just fined Wang Ben a year's salary. Men, take out five hundred taels of gold and give it to Wang Ben!”
"Yes!"
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!"
"Sigh, you helped zhen, zhen naturally has to reward you.”
Ying Zheng smiled and said," Old General, you and Wang Ben should go back and rest.”
"Yes!"
Wang Jian led Wang Ben away, leaving only Ying Zheng and Li Si in the hall.
"I, Li Si, thank Your Majesty for your kindness!”
Li Si knelt on the ground and cried bitterly." I was deeply indebted to the Emperor, but I plotted against Zhao Gao. Your Majesty let go of the past and spared Li Si's life. Li Si was extremely ashamed. Even if he died ten thousand times, he would not be able to repay it! I've let down Your Majesty, let down Your Majesty!”
"Alright."
He looked at Li Si with a complicated expression, then sighed and said," Your intention is not bad. You only want to be rich for a while. Compared to Zhao Gao, you are still worlds apart." Moreover, I let people hear your conversation clearly that day. Don't belittle yourself.”
"Sinners…"
Li Si kowtowed and said," I can only be crushed into pieces. There's nothing I can do to repay you!”
"Alright, Zhao Gao is Zhao Gao, and you are you.”
Ying Zheng said," Now that Zhao Gao has been killed, if you are loyal from now on, you will still be a capable subject of Great Qin!”
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will do my best for Great Qin!”
"Hmm…"
Ying Zheng nodded and said," Actually, I kept you because of one person's contribution. If he had not persuaded me and given me some ideas, I'm afraid you would not have been let off so easily.”
"Your Majesty, this person is the old general Marquis Wucheng?”
Li Si asked immediately.
"No, he's a mighty figure among the people.”
Ying Zheng said," This man is truly a peerless talent! I have never suspected Zhao Gao's rebellious thoughts, but he saw through it. Moreover, this person also told me that if I can obtain Shanyue and turn it into Great Qin's granary, Great Qin's grain will increase by several times, and the entire country will never lack food!”
What was that?
Shan Yue?
Li Si was shocked when he heard that." His Majesty once sent people to attack Shanyue. Although they didn't completely occupy it, they did take some places. I don't know if there's any granary…"
"Not wheat, but rice."
Ying Zheng said," When the time comes, I will ask this person for advice. He will definitely know the method of harvesting.”
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Li Si was puzzled." I just don't know which family this capable person comes from.”
Which sect did such a powerful figure belong to?
Confucians?
Legalism?
Ghost Valley Sect?
Or a farmer?
To be able to see through Zhao Gao, could he be the legendary Onmyoji?
"This…"
Ying Zheng was stunned, and his lips moved slightly.
From which family?
He really didn't know…
When other people showed off their talents, they would first introduce themselves, stating which sect they were from and who their teacher was. Their words had the intention of showing off.
However, Jiang Yue had never said which family she belonged to.
"I don't know."
Ying Zheng said," He didn't say it either. No matter what family he is from, in short, I have never seen this person's ability. With just a little guidance, I will be enlightened! Hehe, this is extraordinary, just like an immortal!”
Immortals?
Li Si's heart skipped a beat when he heard that.
Immortals?
Was he really an immortal?
Or was it another Xu Fu who claimed to be a disciple of an immortal?
"Your Majesty, then, why didn't you invite him to the court?”
Li Si voiced his doubts." If I can be by His Majesty's side, it will definitely be convenient for me to assist…"
"Hehe, I will definitely put such a powerful person in an important position, but it's not time yet!”
Ying Zheng thought to himself,'If I were to expose my identity directly, how would I know so much?
However, he would have to tell Jiang Yue about his identity sooner or later.
Moreover…
If she didn't beg him to treat her body, she would really be finished if she really pulled her hips next year!
The next day, Ying Zheng called Wang Ben over again. Seeing Wang Ben's swollen face, Ying Zheng felt both amused and distressed.
"This is…"
"I was careless when I walked and bumped into myself…"
Wang Ben said awkwardly.
Did he hit it himself?
You hit it so evenly!
Ying Zheng smiled and said," The old general is really ruthless…"
