In the wet prison, Zhang Han was led by a servant through the long corridor and came to a very dilapidated cell, after the sound of the chain, Zhao Gao's slightly old face poked out, and soon, the servant took out the key, opened the cell door, and instructed Zhang Han: "My lord, you must hurry, if Lord Meng Yi knows that I let you in privately, it is not a joke." ”

Zhang Han nodded, took out a piece of gold cake from his arms, and threw it to the officer, who shook the gold cake with his hand, smiled happily, and left quickly.

Just a few days gone, Zhao Gao seemed to have aged a lot all of a sudden, the originally shrewd and sophisticated Zhao Gao, at this time he was hooked up and hunched over, like a sixty or seventy-year-old man, a little bit of the vicissitudes of the world, waiting for death in prison, but soon, Zhao Gao's hoarse voice sounded, and Zhang Han changed his opinion just now: "In the past few days in the imperial court, has there been any major event?" ”

Zhang Han nodded, sat opposite Zhao Gao, and then said: "Dongjun meteorite, for some reason, suddenly there are seven more words, 'The first emperor died and divided'." ”

After Zhang Han finished speaking, Zhao Gao couldn't help laughing, in the laughter, Zhao Gao revealed a wildness, an unruly, a self-confidence that no one can control himself, after laughing, Zhao Gao said: "Those words, I made people engrave them, with these words, we can bite them back, in the end who will die in whose hands, it is unpredictable!" ”

After speaking, Zhao Gao laughed a few more times, then put away his thoughts, stared at Zhang Han, and ordered: "In this matter, did the First Emperor mention Ziying and Feng Zheng?" ”

Zhang Han nodded and said with a smile: "This matter will be investigated by me, Lord Zhao, rest assured, I will definitely try to save you." ”

Zhao Gao was overjoyed in his heart, he planned the meteorite case in order to marry the child and eradicate Fusu's wings, but he didn't expect that today, the meteorite case became his own life-saving straw, at this time, Zhao Gao whispered in Zhang Han's ear: "You have to listen to me in this matter, we can bite Meng Yi back, frame Fusu, and then ......"

。。。。。。

In Xianyang City, ten days of turmoil, seeing that the New Year is approaching, but in Xianyang City, there is a breath of death, in the main hall of Xianyang Palace, the first emperor sits on the top, below, kneeling Zhang Han and a prisoner who was tied with his hands behind his back, and two guards guarded by him.

Zhang Han clenched his fists at this time and said: "Your Majesty, in the past ten days, the minister has investigated in many ways and arrested no less than 200 people related to this matter, among them, one of the most important people was arrested yesterday afternoon, he is the assassin who really assassinated Prime Minister Wang, and Abang, who was killed by the rod, is actually just a substitute for the interests of some people!" ”

"Master Zhang, do you have any evidence?" On the side, Meng Yi walked out of the court, knelt in the center of the main hall, and said: "Your Majesty, the evidence is conclusive, Zhao Gao has also pleaded guilty, please punish Zhang Han for the crime of bullying the king!" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has evidence, please listen to the minister!" Zhang Han clenched his fists again, and the two almost quarreled, the First Emperor was slightly displeased, and coldly scolded: "Don't quarrel, come one by one, bring Zhao Gao to me first!" ”

A janissary sang the promise and left, and soon, Zhao Gao wrapped himself in iron chains and walked slowly into the main hall, his voice was choked, his eyes were full of tears, and he knelt in the center of the hall: "Minister, see His Majesty the Emperor!" ”

The first emperor saw Zhao Gao so embarrassed, his heart was a little unbearable, so many years, Zhao Gao has always been by his side, his every move, his own eating, drinking and Lazar, he knows everything about it, and he can also help himself in the law, and he is also Hu Hai's teacher, he really shouldn't have dealt with Zhao Gao decisively that day.

The guilt in his heart made the First Emperor slightly biased towards Zhao Gao, he looked at Zhang Han and shouted, "Tell me about your investigation." ”

Zhang Han sang a promise, got up and came to the prisoner's side, and said loudly: "Please take a look, this is the cronies in Meng Yi's mansion, and he is also the culprit of the assassination of Wang Juan!" ”

Everyone was in an uproar, Meng Yi's face turned blue with anger, that person was indeed a person from his own house, but he was not the assassin who assassinated Wang Juan, this was obviously Zhang Han who wanted to take the opportunity to blame, but he couldn't interrupt Zhang Han at this time, just like that, Meng Yi had to wait for the opportunity.

Zhang Han continued: "This person once sneaked into the Prime Minister's Mansion in the middle of the night and assassinated Prime Minister Wang Juan with a crossbow, after that, he escaped from Xianyang at night, and had Lishan urgently opened the city gate, and was arranged by Meng Yi to hide in the Lishan construction site, where it was the blind spot of Xianyang's management, no one would have thought that the assassin did not leave Guanzhong. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Han took out a bamboo slip and held it in both hands, "This is the confession of the subordinate general on duty that day." ”

An attendant walked down the jade steps, took the bamboo slip, and turned around, Zhang Han continued at this time: "Also, Meng Yi did not stop there, not long ago, a meteorite fell in Dongjun, Meng Yi in order to blame Lord Zhao, completely make the assassination of Lord Zhao false, he did not hesitate to place the assassin next to the emperor's uncle, and asked him to wait for the opportunity to engrave on the meteorite the seven characters of 'The First Emperor died and divided', causing panic in the court, so as to take the opportunity to eliminate dissidents." ”

As soon as Zhang Han's words fell, Meng Yi resolutely got up and roared angrily: "You are talking nonsense! ”

At this time, the First Emperor got up and paced in front of the jade steps, and after half a sound, he looked at the assassin who was being detained, and asked, "Zhang Shaofu's words, can you deny it?" ”

The man was so frightened that he trembled, but he had obtained 500 gold from Zhang Han, which he used to pay off gambling debts, and secretly moved his family out of Guanzhong, wandering all over the world, his own life, has belonged to Zhang Han, if he talks nonsense at this time, his family will definitely die, in despair, the man sighed, and muttered: "Everything is what Lord Meng meant, Your Majesty, spare me!" ”

Meng Yi's body trembled, he finally understood that he had fallen into the enemy's trap, and any defense was useless, just when Meng Yi was desperate, the First Emperor roared: "Pull him down for me, Ling Chi will be executed!" ”

The man shouted that he was wronged and was pulled down, the hall was as quiet as death, everyone was shocked by everything in front of them, black and white were reversed, many people knew that it was Zhao Gao and Zhang Han who played a trick and reversed the merits, but they caught the evidence and fought back against Meng Yi strongly, I am afraid that no one can save the situation at this time.

Just when everyone was silent, Fusu finally couldn't help it and walked out, he knelt beside Meng Yi, and sighed: "Father, this matter should not be listened to, the son of the emperor implores that the father is sending someone to investigate this matter thoroughly, and it will definitely come to light!" ”

"There are all the human and material evidence, will I wronged them?" The First Emperor was displeased and reprimanded, at this time, his eyes fell on Zhao Gao on the side, this old slave who had been with him for more than 20 years, he was so wronged, the First Emperor's pity rose, and he couldn't help but say politely: "Zhao Qing, you get up, I will remove your sins, and the official will be reinstated." ”

Zhao Gao was moved, kowtowing like pounding garlic: "Your Majesty Xie is aware of ......"

In the main hall, many people were angry, many people gritted their teeth, they all knew what kind of person Zhao Gao was, but why did this kind of person be so important to the First Emperor?

When the hall was quiet, Li Si was keenly aware that his alliance with Zhao Gao was not necessarily a wrong thing, at least, at this time, Li Si saw that Zhao Gao had made a comeback, and he had received the sympathy and understanding of the First Emperor, and Meng Yi was afraid that he would not be able to escape his doom, and Fusu would also lose power.

The two camps, who is the lord of the ups and downs, Li Si came to the center of the main hall, knelt beside Zhao Gao, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister has a matter, I don't know whether to talk about it!" ”

The First Emperor was thinking about how to deal with this matter at this time, but was interrupted by Li Si in his contemplation, looked up, and ordered: "You say." ”

Li Si arched his hand and said: "Meng Yi falsely accused Zhongliang, and his crime should be punished, but the minister heard that the prince helped Su to raise the dead and make friends with the descendants of the six countries, and his mistake in handing over the bandits will lead to the occurrence of this unjust case, and the minister hopes that His Majesty can thoroughly investigate this matter, expel the remnants of the six countries, and kill them all to prevent future troubles!" ”

"Is there such a thing? ......" The first emperor was furious, his eyes burst into cold light, looking directly at Fusu, Fusu's body trembled, and before he could speak, on the side, Li Si said again: "In the first battle of Chu, the Chu general Xiang Yan swore that he would curse the Qin State to perish, and the Chu people would definitely step into Xianyang. And calculate the time, the descendants of Chu have grown up, they will not forget the oath of the Chu general Xiang Yan, the minister has heard that the prince Fusu in the mansion and the Chu general Xiang Yan after Xiang Zhuang made a lot of friends, has been a brother, the minister believes that it must be Xiang Zhuang deliberately misled the son, so that the son mistakenly fell into Meng Yi's tricks, resulting in the occurrence of this unjust case and meteorite case. ”

The first emperor's face changed greatly at this time, Li Si's words couldn't help but arouse his anger, and reminded him of the Confucian case a month ago, at this time, the scale of the Zhaoxian Pavilion has been formed, and the Confucian students in the world have been collected in it, it is time to execute these Confucian students, and the Zhaoxian Pavilion not only accepts Confucian students, but also accepts so many descendants of the Six Kingdoms, they take the opportunity to reverse right and wrong, and mislead Gongzi Fusu, all of which are caused by their own poor consideration back then.

Thinking of this, the First Emperor turned around and picked up the bamboo slips from the hands of the inner servants, threw them on the ground, and shouted: "Pass the decree, block the Zhaoxian Pavilion, all the scholars in the Zhaoxian Pavilion, Confucian students, and arrest them with a wisp, in addition, Zhang Shaofu personally sent troops to arrest Xiang Zhuang and sentenced him to capital punishment to show the public, so as to set an example!" ”

The decision of the first emperor made the burning anger in Fusu's heart suddenly disappear, at this time, he only had despair and unwillingness, the dignified Qin State, how could he do such an absurd thing, detain the world's scholars, and kill the descendants of the Six Kingdoms, where is the heavenly reason? Where is justice?

In desperation, Fusu pleaded again loudly: "Father, think twice! ”

The First Emperor had lost his mind at this time, he looked at Fusu angrily, and scolded: "I let you run the government, but you have accepted the descendants of the six countries, and compared them with their friends, which is too disappointing to me, from tomorrow, you will go to Mobei, supervise the army with Meng Tian, build the Great Wall and straight roads, without my will, you are not allowed to step into Xianyang half a step!" ”

Fusu instantly collapsed to the ground, all his efforts were in vain, his ambitions had disappeared, just when Fusu was desperate, the first emperor made a will that made everyone even more desperate: "Order Xianyang Mansion, detain Meng Yi and Confucianism, and after the evidence is conclusive, all of them will be pulled to Magu and killed!" ”

The Manchu Dynasty was shocked, and the officials talked about it, but the first emperor had no intention of gathering the people, and strode to the outside of the hall, at this time, the inner attendant who had been accompanying the side walked to the front of the jade steps, and shouted: "His Majesty the Emperor has a will, retreat from the court......"

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live long live......"
