"Boom~" The ink disciple behind him pulled the trigger again, and two more moon blades shot out, and the snow-white brilliance flashed with a cold cold light in the afterglow.

At this time, in addition to the guards who came from the encirclement, Zhao Gao was already protected by several other escort regiments in the center, and he pulled his horse and left quickly.

"Engong, Wuya failed this time, please take care, and repay the grace of saving your life in the next life!" The man in black let out a long sigh and swung his sword to slash through the two guards again, avoiding one of the moon blades before being hit in the right leg by the other.

"Bang~"

The man in black knelt heavily on the ground, looking at several long swords that were chopped down at the same time, and looking at Zhao Gao, who was gradually moving away, with a wry smile in his eyes.

"Boom~"

Just when the man in black was no longer able to resist, suddenly a gray figure fell like a cannonball from the roof on the side, also wearing gray cloth linen, with bare feet and holding a purple wooden stick in his hand.

"Get out~" The barefoot man roared, and the purple wooden stick in his hand swept out, and it was like a purple light still trembling rapidly in motion, crushing the air and making a whining and screeching sound.

"Bang bang bang pop~" The five or six bronze long swords that were chopped down were directly hit by the wooden sticks and flew out, and several burly guards on the horses were also like being struck by lightning, one by one they screamed and flew out, and even the horses that sat down could not resist the impact of the wooden sticks, and they neighed and fell backwards and even rolled to the ground, and the street was suddenly chaotic.

"Senior brother~" The man in black was pleasantly surprised, and stood up with difficulty with the black sword.

"Hmph, if I'm half a step too late, you'll still be alive! Let's go~" The barefoot man snorted coldly, grabbed the man in black with one hand and put it on his shoulder, and at the same time turned to look at the Mo family disciple who was holding a bladed crossbow and looked like a dwarf, the cold light flashed in his eyes, and before the dwarf pulled the trigger, the purple long stick in his hand came out of his hand, turned into a purple light and flew in front of the dwarf in an instant.

"Puff~" The long stick passed directly through the dwarf's heart, and the barefoot big man's wooden stick didn't look at it again after taking off his hand, carrying the man in black in a few steps, his body was like a dragon swimming out of the sea, and in an instant it was dozens of zhang away, and when the crossbow in the dwarf's hand fell to the ground, the barefoot man could no longer be seen on the street.

At this time, the forbidden army of the curfew shouted and ran from a distance.

CRRC ordered the assassination on the street, and almost died, more than a dozen guards were killed and wounded, and blood splattered dozens of feet through the street, this incident was like a bomb that instantly exploded the entire Xianyang City.

The lieutenant's mansion is like a great enemy, the sirens are heard one after another, the soldiers who ride horses to transmit information gallop back and forth all over the city, and thousands of forbidden troops who have received military orders rush out from the four large camps, densely scattered like flowing water to the streets and alleys of Xianyang City to search for assassins, and at the same time, this news was also quickly delivered into the palace, and in an instant, the Weiwei Mansion also moved, thousands of soldiers and horses surrounded the palace inside and outside the water, and five hundred Xuanwu guards also poured out, holding bows and crossbows to take over the gates of the forbidden palace.

In the evening, there are fires in Xianyang City rising one after another, countless soldiers with halberd blades patrolling back and forth on the city wall, shouting and roaring endlessly, although the four city gates have long been closed, but the soldiers guarding the gate have increased several times, and the soldiers in the city will not be able to pour the water of the entire Xianyang City guard as if facing a great enemy.

"Bang bang bang ~ "

The searching forbidden army smashed through the courtyards of people's houses like bandits, and searched for assassins all over the city with swords and swords, and countless sneaky people did not hesitate to arrest and put them in the lieutenant's prison, and those who dared to resist a little would be killed on the spot.

Countless princes and ministers had already eaten dinner at this time, and were ready to wash and sleep with their concubines and mothers, but as the soldiers who spread the news broke into the mansion, they were all frightened and hurriedly dressed in robes.

A fast horse galloped to a stop in front of Li Si's mansion, and the soldiers on the horse were burly and tall, wearing pitch-black armor, and shouted: "The emperor summoned Li Xiang to enter the inner palace quickly!" ”

Almost at the same time, there were also Feng Quji, the right minister, Yin Wu, the court captain, and Wang Ben, the Marquis of Tongwu, and other important ministers.

Zhangtai Palace Purple Spring Palace.

This is the junction of the inner and outer courtyards of the palace.

The main hall is brightly lit, and countless candles and lanterns reflect the main hall as if it were the daylight.

There are many soldiers inside and outside the main hall, and the armor-piercing halberd will make the entire hall defense.

Qin Shi Huang was wearing a black robe, wearing a jade crown, and sat on the top of the low couch with a calm face, a low table in front of him, on which were constantly presented with various news, he looked at it, and picked up the yam and poria cake in the jade plate and chewed it slowly, although the people outside were panicked at this time, but it was extremely quiet here, but the silence was a little excessive, and the atmosphere was very depressing.

"Report, Prime Minister Li Si has arrived!"

"Report, the right Prime Minister Feng is going to get sick!"

"Report, Tingwei Yin has arrived!"

With a voice, all the well-dressed court officials came one after another, although they had just gotten up from the bed and came in a hurry, but they were not too flustered except for their serious faces.

Almost a quarter of an hour later, when all the summoned ministers arrived, Qin Shi Huang put down the bamboo slip in his hand and said: "Everyone should already know about the assassination of Zhao Fuling just now, and I want to hear your opinions on the arrival of Aiqing late at night!" ”

"Your Majesty!" Wang Ben, who was kneeling on the right head, quickly stood up, "Zhao Fu Ling entered my mansion at Shen Shi today, discussed the marriage of the third daughter Qingsleeve and his fourth son Zhao Zhe, and then stayed to eat and drink together, and left at the end of the day, and there was nothing unusual in the process, so the minister guessed that the person who assassinated Zhao Fu Ling should be very clear about Zhao Fu Ling's actions today, or he had premeditated to track and assassinate, fortunately, Zhao Fu Ling was deeply blessed and there was no major problem, otherwise the minister would be to blame!" ”

"Tongwu Hou don't blame himself, this incident happened by extreme accident, maybe it is the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, in recent days, you Aiqing have been cautious, go out with more guards just in case!" Qin Shi Huang said lightly.

"Thank you Your Majesty for your concern! Ministers are grateful! Several important ministers hurriedly bowed down.

"Regarding the assassin, it is rumored that the Lieutenant's Mansion has stepped up the search, Zhao Fuling is injured, but his position cannot be vacant, I want to arrange for Lang Zhongling Yang Tong to take over temporarily, what do you think?" Qin Shi Huang asked.

"Yang Tong is an old minister of the two dynasties, acting steadily, being upright, loyal to his duties, and there will be no mistakes in the order of the CRRC!" Right Prime Minister Feng Qujian said.

"Your Majesty has decided, and the ministers have no objections!" Except for Li Si, the rest of them also hurriedly agreed.

"Is there a better candidate for Prime Minister Li?" Qin Shi Huang looked at Li Si.

"Your Majesty, Lang Zhongling is ranked in the ninth qing, the position is high and powerful, now the government affairs are busy, and it cannot be easily changed, you need to be cautious, not to mention that although the minister heard that although the Zhao Mansion order is bleeding like a lot, it is just a skin injury, and it will recover in ten days, so the minister recommends Jiang Heng, the doctor of Taizhong, to take over temporarily!"

For the appointment and dismissal of personnel, the emperor has the right to make a decision, but as the head of the hundred officials of the imperial court, and the leader of the Jiuqing government, Li Si naturally has a great right to make suggestions on the appointment and dismissal of personnel, the most important thing is that the emperor trusts him very much now, and Li Si is also quite embarrassed about the destruction of Jiang's marriage last time.

As the saying goes, there is no impermeable wall, Li Si went to the palace in the afternoon to meet the emperor alone, and when the dynasty was dispersed in the afternoon, there was Zhao Gao's repentance of marriage, and the princes of Xianyang were as many as cows, and their ears and eyes were also very messy, so almost everyone guessed that the destruction of Jiang's marriage was done by Li Si, so Li Si's so-called secrecy was completely like a sieve, everything was naked, and nothing was saved, so Jiang's attitude towards Li Si has been very bad recently, Jiang Heng has contradicted several laws and regulations of Li Si above the court several times, which made Li Si very annoyed, He recommended Jiang Heng just to make up for it, and it was also an attitude, indicating that I, Li Si, have no ill will towards your Jiang family.

Besides, Li Si is also dumb and eats Coptis chinensis, and he can't say anything about his suffering, he really shouldn't be greedy for that half tube of Ziyun Immortal Tea, but now he can't say it, he can only swallow it with his teeth, and he secretly endures it.

The most important thing is that Li Si was promoted from Tingwei to Zuo Xiang for only one year, and Yang Tong is an old minister of the two dynasties, and he has some views on Li Si, once he is promoted from the position of Jiuqing to the CRRC Mansion Decree directly under the emperor, he Li Si will be completely uncontrollable, and many things will be constrained in the future, and Jiang Heng is different, but he is just a doctor who does not have much real power, although he can also impeach officials when he participates in politics, but he can only be regarded as an idle official, dispensable, this kind of person pushes behind his back, not only can eliminate the embarrassment of the last time, And you can also get his support, it can be regarded as an arrangement of killing two birds with one stone, and Jiang Heng is not qualified enough, Li Si can attack, retreat and defend, once he is not satisfied with Jiang Heng, he can also suggest that the emperor cancel his acting qualifications, and support Zhao Gao to go up again, so that Zhao Gao will also be grateful to him.

And once Yang Tong becomes the commander of the CRRC government, the ending is not easy to say, and the emperor may let him continue to be the emperor, until he dies, this kind of ending Li Si naturally will not want to see.

And because Qin Shi Huang naturally knew about the last incident, so he also quite understood Li Si's actions, but neither the monarch nor the minister could say it, otherwise the two most powerful monarchs and ministers in Great Qin would become a joke of the world.

But just as Qin Shi Huang was about to nod, the right minister Feng Quji stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the rank of Taizhong Doctor Jiang Heng is not enough to serve as the commander of the CRRC Prefecture, and the minister suggests that someone else be chosen!" ”

Qin Shi Huang nodded slightly and said: "What the right minister said is reasonable, but it is only a temporary appointment, not to mention that the Jiang family has been the secretary of state for generations, Jiang Heng's father is the former imperial history Zhongcheng, more than ten years of conscientious work has never made a mistake, the Jiang family is now a family of four masters, all of them are working for my Great Qin, and if the rank is insufficient, it will be promoted, this matter will be arranged in this way, the high prince will set the rank, and Li Cheng will draft the edict, and the court will pass it on tomorrow morning!" ”

Feng Quji sat down expressionlessly after hearing this, and several other important ministers were also silent.
