Chapter Seventy-Three: I Came Here for One Thing, and That Is to Kill
Handan County, the county governs Handan......
As an ancient city with a long history, Handan originated in Shang Yin, flourished in the Spring and Autumn Period, and went through eight generations of princes of the Zhao Kingdom to its peak.
After Qin destroyed Zhao, although Handan City lost its reputation as the royal capital, it was very prosperous in terms of the size of the city and the population and commerce.
In the entire Great Qin Empire, it can be regarded as one of the few, rich and prosperous places.
Handan City has 40,000 household registrations and nearly 200,000 people. The handicraft industry is extremely prosperous, and the wealthy merchants and magnates gather for meritorious deeds.
In the busy city of Handan, the shouting of vendors is endless.
At this moment, almost all the streets of Handan City had some soldiers wearing errand clothes.
It's just that the clothes on their bodies are all printed with four big characters.
The front is emblazoned with the Empire, and the back is the Flash.
They were all holding a pile of boxy white paper with dense small script printed on it.
"Imperial Express, grasp the first-hand news of the Great Qin Empire."
"Your Majesty's royal drive is about to arrive in Handan, and the army of the five counties is coming straight to Handan."
"The Supreme Chong Guan is angry and turned red, and Handan City will be reduced to ruins in the anger of the king."
"The 200,000 army will arrive in Handan soon, and everyone will be buried for some idiots."
"Handan City, which is in danger, where will it go?"
"People and gods are angry, and the thieves have dug up the tomb of His Majesty's benefactor."
"The end of the Zhao people has come, meet the call of death!"
Such a scene soon spread to Handan in all directions of the empire.
The fast horses on the galloping road were killed one after another by the shuttled postmen.
The Empire Express was completely shocking and shocked the world.
The Imperial Express, which was originally ignored and regarded as a joke, instantly became a hot and sought-after pride of the sky.
The Imperial Express, which was originally distributed for free, was also instantly high Captain, and the ten copper coins were also hard to find, and they were sold out in an instant.
So much so that the second-hand Imperial Express has become a treasure that everyone is vying for.
The price soared rapidly, and it was speculated to the point that it was difficult to find a hundred, or even a thousand copper coins.
The wealthy merchants and magnates of the entire Great Qin Empire, and the meritorious deeds of the officials all set their eyes on Zhao Di.
Within a few days, the peddlers were pawns, and the people of the world also heard about it, and they talked about it with relish.
The monthly Imperial Newsletter has also become a daily issue, making a fortune.
Seeing the huge profits, many speculative merchants also began to speculate, giving possession of all their hands and scattered their possessions, in order to buy all the imperial news they could.
The Imperial Express Halls in various places are also surrounded by water every day, and they don't have to go out to give them away for free, and they can't be given away.
Almost without going out, they were all looted.
But people's eyes don't want to see these gossips and unnutritious content.
Gradually, many people lost interest in the content of the Imperial Express.
In their opinion, instead of spending a lot of money, they should buy these waste papers.
It's better to pay more attention to yourself and find out the information of Handan.
But soon these people realized that they were very wrong, because they did not get the information as quickly as the Imperial Express.
On the third day, the front page of the Imperial Express was once again printed with the place of people's attention, Zhao Di Handan.
"The 200,000-strong army will surround Handan, and Your Majesty will arrive in Handan City."
"The residents of Handan are trembling to meet the unknown tomorrow."
"Life and death, blood and fire, the fate of the people of Handan is in their own hands."
"Hand over the murderer, or turn into purgatory?"
Almost all the Imperial Bulletins from all over the country fixed the front-page news in Handan City on this day, and although the names were different, the content was surprisingly consistent.
Obviously, these contents have been premeditated for a long time, and many smart people have come to this conclusion, and they immediately feel chills in their hearts.
Who is the master behind this imperial news, and who in the world does not know?
Could it be that His Majesty the First Emperor really wants to wash Handan in blood?
And today's Handan City has long lost the hustle and bustle of the past.
Everyone knelt outside the city, looking at the soldiers of the Qin army in all directions, and the entire Handan Siege was blocked.
The painful memories that had disappeared came back to my heart.
At that time, the Zhao people mobilized the strength of the country, and hundreds of thousands of armor soldiers, but they could not hold Handan City.
What do the Zhao people use to guard Handan City now?
They had no choice but to kneel outside the city and pray that His Majesty would not harm the innocent.
Handan County Shou Li Nian led the officials of Handan City, and the powerful and meritorious knelt outside the city gate, looking at the black dragon slowly moving in the distant sky, his eyes showed a look of panic.
Such a big battle really scared them.
They still don't know what happened, and of course they've read the article in the Imperial Bulletin.
But it's always a little unbelievable, who is so mad?
If the news is true, it is simply a monstrous disaster!
But now seeing such a big battle, who dares to doubt the authenticity of the Imperial Express information?
Ying Zheng was wearing a black empire, wearing a Tai'a sword at his waist, his eyes were indifferent, and he sat on a bronze chariot of horses, showing a solemn and murderous atmosphere.
One of his hands was tightly clenched on the hilt of his sword, and he looked at the sea of kneeling people in front of the city gate, still unmoved.
"Chen Handan County Shou Li Nian ......"
"Lieutenant ...... Handan County"
"The ...... of the Imperial History of the Ministers of Handan Supervision"
"The ...... of the Order of Handan County"
The royal car waiting for Yingzheng stopped in front of everyone, and Handan County Shou Li Nian led a group of officials to bow in unison.
"Greetings to His Majesty the First Emperor."
Whether they were reluctant or not, from the dignitaries and nobles in Handan City to the peddlers and pawns, they all shouted in unison.
"I'm here for one thing, to kill ......"
Ying Zheng stood up from the bronze Sima chariot, pressed the hilt of the Tai'a sword with one hand, and said with a cold look in his eyes.
Everyone suddenly fell into an ice cellar, trembling, and their hearts completely fell to the bottom.
"Say it!"
"Whoever dug Ah Fang's grave and took the initiative to confess his guilt, I can only punish the evil head."
"I give you half a day, and if you refuse to confess your guilt, or if you can't find the murderer, all of you will die."
Ying Zheng pulled out the Tai'a sword at his waist and said angrily.
"Kill ......"
"Kill ......"
"Kill ......"
The soldiers of the Qin army in all directions shouted in unison.
Who is Ah Fang?
At this time, everyone was confused and looked at each other.
"Who is it, don't you hurry up and stand up and let everyone follow the funeral?"
"Damn brute, confess your sins!"
"I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"
"Woo ......"
Ying Zheng's chariot rushed directly into Handan City, and tens of thousands of armor soldiers also entered Handan, strictly controlling and occupying various important places, looking heavily guarded.
After waiting for Yingzheng to leave, the crowd exploded.
Half a day, only half a day.
No jokes!
No one will doubt His Majesty's words, if there is really no one who takes the initiative to confess his guilt, or find out the murderer, then Handan City will definitely fall into a bloody storm.
The sound of shouting and scolding and crying spread throughout Handan City for a while.
Everyone looked at the people around them suspiciously, looking at each other, everyone wanted to find the murderer, in order to save their lives and protect the lives of their loved ones......
