Chapter 42: The Storm is Coming!
Looking at the burning secret letter, the flickering fire jumped on Heifu's face, illuminating Heifu's terrifying and sinister smile.
Heifu let out a wry laugh and said with pity:
"Don't dare to disobey the master's orders, third son, this is your life!"
Wow wow!
A crow flew over Heifu's head, looking even more eerie, as if hinting at Yingtian's next tragic fate.
At half past ten o'clock in the night, the long moon shone and the wind was slightly cool.
When it was curfew time in Yongcheng, there was no one on all the streets except for the soldiers patrolling the streets.
It's empty, it's silent, and the lights of thousands of homes are sleeping.
Yongcheng is like a sleeping beast.
Rumble!
A scorched thunderclap broke the silent night sky.
Black clouds overwhelmed the city, lightning flashed and thundered, and the earth suddenly rained.
It was raining in half of the Qin country.
The pouring rain woke up the beast of Yongcheng.
The entire Yongcheng was dark, but the ancestors' mansions, princes' mansions, and Wei Ran's mansions were brightly lit and lasted all night.
The ancestor Yingqian gathered all the nobles and clans of the Qin State.
Shizi Yingdang gathered more than 30 henchmen, and Gan Long shuttled back and forth between Yingqian and Shizi, spreading the news.
Wei Ran's mansion gathered more than 20 henchmen, and the fourth prince Yingji was also among them.
They are all discussing one thing, and that is to deal with their common enemy, Yingtian.
Tomorrow, the court will discuss and threaten Qin Hou, and the third prince Yingtian must be executed.
The beast of Yongcheng roared silently in the rain, ready to devour the third prince Yingtian in one bite tomorrow.
Looking at the heavy rain outside the house, Yingtian put his hands behind his back and thought thoughtfully.
"Where are the Six Sword Slaves?"
As his voice fell, six figures in netted armor jumped down from the beams of the room.
The six of them fell to the ground with a bang and said respectfully in unison:
"The Six Sword Slaves are here!"
"How is the Yongcheng Imperial Court?"
The sword slave really just opened his mouth and said:
"Enlighten the lord, there is chaos in the court."
The sword slave broke the water and said:
"Enlighten the Lord, after the monarch finishes the performance, he will go to bed at the fifth lady's place."
The sword slave opened his mouth and said:
"Enlighten the Lord, Zhang Yi, Rhino Head, and Shang Jun sent people to dissuade the son, don't be rash."
Sword Slave Spirit, Exterminator successively said:
"Old Ancestor Yingqian has made up his mind to unite all the nobles and clans of the Qin State to attack Gongzi."
"Shizi Yingdang, Gan Long and all the henchmen conspired to unite with the ancestor Yingqian to kill Gongzi.
The fourth son, Yingji and Wei Ran, are also thinking about eradicating the son without offending the son. ”
Tick!
A drop of rain outside the house splashed on the windowsill and splashed on Yingtian's face.
Yingtian sighed with emotion:
"The storm is coming!"
"Your Excellency, please give the next order!"
The six sword slaves asked at the same time.
Yingtian said majestically:
"Keep watching! Waiting for Ben Gongzi's order! ”
"No."
The Six Sword Slaves retreated, and the startled salamander hung a cloak on Yingtian's shoulder.
"Childe, the bed is warm, you can go to bed."
"Those in Yongcheng who want to calculate Ben Gongzi probably don't want to sleep tonight.
They don't sleep, but my son wants to sleep beautifully. ”
"Look at what Childe said, it's not that you calculated that they can't sleep."
Under the service of the startled salamander, Yingtian untied his clothes and lay on a warm bed to sleep.
The startled salamander was afraid that it would rain heavily tonight, and it was cold at night, so he wanted to get into the bed to warm up Yingtian, but was drunk back by Yingtian.
"After closing the door, you sent someone to inform Dawn.
Remove the 500 Xuanjia troops and let them rest tonight.
The herald ordered 1,000 people under Li Deming, the captain of Huwei, to surround the mansions of the three major families.
The people of the three major families can only enter and not go out, and the rest of the people in the house can enter and exit. ”
"No."
The frightened salamander withdrew from the door of the Kaaba with resentment, and after carefully inspecting it, he made sure that the doors and windows were closed before going to work.
Rumble!
The scorching thunder is still in my ears, flashing and lighting up the night sky.
That night, it rained heavily all night.
Some people have no sleep all night, and some people are woken up by thunder in the middle of the night, but the sweetness of sleep is Yingtian.
After the rain stops, it will decide the fate of countless people, whether they are dead or alive, all in the will of heaven, and also in the will of heaven.
Yongcheng, after a night of rain, has not yet sunny.
In the scorching summer, the cold wind blows all over the city.
At eight o'clock in the morning, there was still an hour before the court meeting.
Qin Hou Yingba was reviewing the folds in the side hall.
The eunuch of the inner palace, Heifu, quietly walked in and put last night's secret letter about the Xianyang City Lord Yingtian and the three major families on top of the dragon case.
"Your Excellency, our people have news from Xianyang."
Heifu raised his head and stared at Qin Hou's every move with the corner of his eye.
Yingba held a brush in one hand and opened the secret letter carelessly with the other.
"When was this delivered?"
Heifu said seriously:
"It was just delivered."
"Oh, that's right...... What? ”
Yingba was shocked when she saw the contents of the secret letter, and splashed the ink on the brush on the table in shock.
Holding his hands and observing carefully, as if facing a great enemy, he sighed:
"Oh my God! You're taking too big a step! ”
"At the beginning, my father and Shang Jun only changed the law, and they didn't dare to attack all the nobles and clans, so they could only weaken it, and it would not be possible to achieve it in a hundred years!"
"And you actually want to solve them all at once, it's like digging your own grave!"
Although Yingba was shocked, he was the king of a country, and he quickly calmed down.
After the amazement, I rejoiced in my heart:
If you had done it last night, it would have been difficult to recover it now, and it would have been a catastrophe.
Even I, the monarch, have probably become the enemy of the Qin State.
Yingba quickly made deployments:
"Heifu, hurry up and send someone to Xianyang quickly!"
"Order the third prince not to act rashly, and let go of the affairs of the three major families first."
"By the way, I will appease Ben Hou, he will naturally carry the matter of killing Ying I don't know before!"
"After a while, Ben Hou will change his fief from Xianyang to another place, go quickly!"
"No."
Heifu secretly observed Qin Hou and found no clues, so he hurriedly withdrew from the palace to find the little eunuch to start handling the matter.
At this moment, Yingba no longer had the heart to review the recital, got up and paced back and forth in place, deeply feeling the danger of this matter, and if he was not careful, he would even die.
"Oh my God, what you want to do, why don't you want to do it for my father."
"However, the nobles and clans of the Qin State control more than seventy percent of the wealth, land, and population of the Qin State."
"Moving them now is tantamount to digging your own grave, what do you think? Could it be that Ben Junhou has seen the wrong person? ”
Heifu stood next to him and didn't dare to disturb, watching Yingba pacing in place and talking to himself.
Time flies, and seeing that the court is about to be discussed, under the reminder of Heifu, Yingba changed into court clothes, changed his mood, and went to Chengming Palace.
As soon as he came out of the side hall, Qin Hou looked up and saw that the sky was dark and bleak, as if there was a rain dragon in it.
"It's not going to rain again, is it?"
(Lu Fengxian's battle report: There will be at least four shifts starting tomorrow, and it will be a big climax.)
