However, at the moment when the Black Ice Platform was dispatched, he had already arranged for Li Shang to leave Xianyang, and outside Xianyang City, there were those people who responded. Everything will be carried out according to the plan and in an orderly manner.

The rest do not need to linger in the mind.

……

On the Weishui, he had already disguised himself and got on a boat heading east.

In the package, there is a little Qin Banliang, a set of change of clothes, someone has already prepared a charm, inspection, and transmission for themselves, this is a new set of identity certificates, leaving here, there is no such person as a merchant in the world, some, just a wandering merchant in a down-and-out land.

At this time, the torrential rain came, and the entire water surface was shrouded in a vast mist.

Five steps away, there were no cattle or horses.

But he still looked back, looking at the majestic city that was gradually moving away.

Wind and rain.

I don't know if it's rain or tears, and they slide silently from the corners of my eyes.

The storm washed away everything in the heavens and the earth, and also covered everything in the heavens and the earth, so naturally they would not know that there was a small down-and-out merchant who rode away today.

It's like no one pays attention to an ant that occasionally crawls under your feet.

……

Listen to the sound of hurried footsteps outside the main hall.

In the main hall, everyone who was talking and laughing at the banquet unconsciously restrained their expressions, looking at the black who did not squint and strode in, everyone's eyes were tight, and their hearts were awe-inspiring.

This kind of darkness can stop children crying at night!

"Your Majesty, you have already pried your mouth open. There are one hundred and seventy-eight people involved in this matter, and the list is all here-"

Walking to the front of the hall, Hei Shen gave a salute, took out a good list wrapped in oiled paper from his arms, and presented it with both hands.

The First Emperor's cold gaze slowly swept over the list, and his face was gloomy as water.

Let the guard beside him hand the list back again. The voice was flat, and the distant seemed to come from the sky, without a trace of emotion.

"Kill them all—"

"No!"

Black turned away without hesitation.

Click-

Lightning and thunder shone on the black and gray sideburns and the cheeks that were already obviously old, and the murderous atmosphere was high.

Everyone knows that today, Xianyang City will be bleeding like a river.

But for the first time, everyone remained silent.

No one wants to go against the First Emperor and provoke the First Emperor's anger at this time, and no one wants to go against the First Emperor in this matter.

Killing, starting from the eldest son's mansion.

From maids and servants, ordinary guards, to housekeepers, and two batches of doormen who were hired by Zhao Ying.

Seventeen people!

Zhang Liang, who is now in charge of the affairs of the mansion and has full responsibility for the affairs of the mansion, couldn't help but be frightened, and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead without a trace.

Although most of these people had been arranged before him, some of them had even been lurking in the mansion for several years, and became the steward of the mansion before the eldest son Fusu lost His Majesty's favor.

But after he took over, he really conducted an investigation of everyone in the house.

Especially after receiving Zhao Gao's warning, he failed to find any clues. He was familiar with this method, and he relied on this method back then, and he was at large all the time, evading the pursuit of Great Qin.

Because, everyone's identity will have a comparative story, a comparative person who once existed.

As long as you don't bring people with you, go and confront them face to face.

Even if you take the talisman, test, and pass it on, and go to the local area to check it in person, you won't find any clues.

In those days, there were too many ways to make a person disappear, and likewise, too many ways to legally renew an identity. Even if it is as strict as Qin's law, it cannot completely put an end to this kind of shady little thing.

He knew that the bleeding was just beginning, and that with the exposure of this horse, there would definitely be more people, so it was unlucky.

As far as they are concerned, they may not really have it, and they dare not have the slightest intention of rebellion.

But they will have to pay a heavy price for their dereliction of duty or greed.

What surprised Zhang Liang the most was that Zhou Yin, who he had been worried about for a long time, was fine, but he had always been low-key and modest.

He took the opportunity to help Zhang Liang deal with the government affairs of the government, and took the opportunity to change the guards of Zhao Ying's hospital.

Following this line, a surprising name appeared on the list.

The Imperial Historian eats it!

This name made him tremble.

Because, everyone in Xianyang City knows what this name means-

That was the person of the Eighteen Princes, and he used to rely on the most disciples.

Regardless of whether it is inside or outside, it will be called Ligong.

The blood began from the eldest son's mansion, but it was only the beginning, the captain of the Black Ice Terrace, who had been silent for a long time in the storm, moved, and the iron horses came out in all directions, and the dull sound of horses' hooves was particularly shocking in the storm.

Xianyang County Cheng Liao Fang, the scribe Deng Yun, the assistant Hu Guan, the secretary, the city, the captain in charge of Xianyang security, and even an old man in the royal family, this old man who only knows how to make money on weekdays, is stupid and incompetent, and this time he finally hit the iron plate.

But the one with the greatest influence and the highest status is still Li Shiqi.

In just half a year, he has risen to the top of the ranks, climbed all the way to the imperial doctor, and was regarded by His Majesty as an important minister in the court. He had heard of this man's name before, and he had also heard of this man's strategy, but he didn't expect him to have such courage.

This actually made him feel a little ashamed in a trance.

But he immediately suppressed this thought in his heart.

Big husband, when the weather is right, take advantage of the situation. Holding on to the incomplete, not knowing how to be flexible, not the wise do it!

……

Bang –

The door was slammed open from the outside.

The captains of the two teams of Black Ice Platforms rushed in, followed by the Black Chief Administrator who was not very calm with his hands behind his back, and it seemed that the wind and rain outside could not shake him for half a point.

"You're finally here—"

Li Shiqi looked at the black who strode in, and Li Shiqi tidied up his crown belt in a good time.

"The old man has been waiting for you for ......"

Before he finished speaking, the sword flashed, and a human head fell to the ground.

"That's a lot of nonsense!"

The black sword was sheathed and looked around.

"Kill, don't leave a single one!"

……

Zhangtai Palace back kitchen.

Miss Wei Weiyang looked at Zhao Ying with disgust.

"Hey—I said, Your Highness, can you do it—"

Zhao Ying looked at the pig-like dumplings in his hands, and then looked at the small and delicate dumplings with well-proportioned lace in his hands, and could only laugh dryly.

"Okay, naturally it's okay, I don't believe you go back and taste it, make sure you are so delicious that you can't stop eating......"

Seeing the two people arguing there, Concubine Zheng, who was helping to light the fire, couldn't help but look up and smile.

"Ying'er, forget it, you come over and light the fire, I'll go and wrap up the ......"

Zhao Ying: ......

Shallow!

Dumplings, delicious is king, what is the use of the bag so good-looking, it can't stop the mouth when you eat it. It's still better like me, just the amount of food for the group of old men outside, if there are three or five people alone, they can eat enough.

How much it feels.

Reluctantly moved to the stove.

Although it was already late August, sitting in front of the stove, I still felt that the heat was oppressive and a little hot. He turned his head boredly and looked at the rain curtain that poured down like a waterfall.

The red flames reflected in his face, uncertain.

……

Zhao Ying, who was very interested and wanted to personally cook for everyone, was busy in the kitchen, and felt that her body was hot, but outside the hall.

Hu Hai, who was standing under the eaves, only felt chills all over his body.

He watched the captain of the black ice platform gallop away, and then watched the black stride with a solemn expression, and then rushed into the rain without looking back.

The uneasiness in my heart is getting more and more uneasy.

"Your Highness - why do you look so pale, is it because of the wind and cold......"

Ziying came up with concern and arched his hand.

"Your Highness might as well go to the side hall to rest and drink a bowl of hot tea, just keep an eye on me here......"

Hu Hai smiled a little hard.

"Thanks, I'm fine......"

Although it was said that it was fine, he was still persuaded by Ziying and others to go to the side hall to rest, but where could he rest?

Once something happens to Li Shiqi, don't care about that incident, whether he is involved or not, I'm afraid he won't be able to get out. Because, everyone knows that Li Shiqi is his most relied on confidant.

With its own brand.

Although he did reject Li Shiqi's suggestion that day, he did not stop or oppose Li Shiqi's private actions.

He himself couldn't tell what kind of psychology it was.

But now, something has really happened.

He hoped that this matter had nothing to do with him, and he was worried that in the next moment, he would not be dragged by his own Aweng, and in this way, he was sitting on pins and needles in the side hall, living like a year.

At a certain moment, he even wanted to rush in and confess directly to His Majesty.

"I don't, I don't want to......"

But after all, I still didn't dare.

He was like a child who had made a mistake, watching the pouring rain, and his heart was full of fear and anxiety about the unknown. I don't know how long it took, but the door slammed and someone pushed it open.

……

The first emperor personally kept the meal, Concubine Zheng and His Royal Highness the eldest grandson personally cooked, as well as the granddaughter of Wei Yizi, who can catch the girl with bad round feet with one hand, let alone whether it is delicious or not, you can say what kind of face this is, right?

No one is going to save face.

So, although I was very puzzled by the news outside, I still sat honestly in the main hall and waited for this meal.

Watch the hourglass pass slowly.

It was noon.

Even the chamberlain in the back kitchen came to see it a few times, and the first emperor didn't have the slightest intention of starting to eat, and everyone knew that he was on an empty stomach, drinking tea, and continued to work here.

"Your Majesty, the elders of the Mengxi Bai San clan of Meixian County ask to see——"

A smile finally appeared on the First Emperor's face.

"Please!"

"Minister Mengqing, Xi Qihong, and Bai Fen pay a visit to Your Majesty—"

Looking at the three old fellows who came in the rain and were drenched like chickens in soup, the first emperor's eyebrows stretched, and finally a smile appeared on his face, laughing and standing up, stretching out his hand to help.

"Three Aiqing, you have worked hard all the way, hurry up and be free of courtesy......"

He didn't pretend to be polite, how could he come to the palace in such weather. He knew what the three of them had come for.

For the First Emperor, the arrival of the three people is more like an attitude.

Although they have already expressed this attitude, it is far less clear and convincing than the current attitude.

In fact, he has been waiting for this attitude.

Fortunately, they lived up to their trust and expectations.

The arrival of the elders of the three clans of Mengxi Bai was expected by everyone, but they didn't expect that they would come in such a hurry and in such a hurry, and they would rush here under such a heavy rainstorm.

The hardships on the road can be imagined.

Although, since the end of last year, His Majesty has asked people to renovate the official road from Xianyang to Meixian, but this kind of weather, it is by no means easy to rush from the countryside.

"Working hard for the country, I dare not say that I am hard-"

Among the elders of the three clans of Mengxi and Bai, Meng Qing was the oldest, and he trembled and bowed deeply to the First Emperor again.

"The old minister is in the countryside, and when he heard that His Majesty was furious, he dispatched the Black Ice Platform and directly surrounded the Eldest Prince's Mansion - I was worried that there would be any misunderstanding and irreparable regret, so I rashly asked to see him, and asked His Majesty to forgive ......"

Looking at this old companion whose hair and clothes were already wet from the heavy rain, the First Emperor became more and more happy, and he waved his hand happily.

"This matter, let's talk about it later, the three of you will go to the side hall first to change into clean clothes and then come back......"

Seeing the performance of the First Emperor, Meng Qing thought that this was the First Emperor finding an excuse to support them again, and was unwilling to let them mention today's matter, so he was immediately in a hurry.

Some stubbornly shook off the inner servants who wanted to step forward to support him, and their expressions were a little sad and indignant that could not be concealed.

"Your Majesty, the emperor's eldest grandson is pure and filial by nature, and he is by no means a dark and vicious villain, the matter of witchcraft must be the work of a villain, please Your Majesty, temporarily calm the anger of the thunder, and return the ......innocence of His Royal Highness the emperor's eldest grandson."

"Your Majesty's eldest grandson, talented, martial, and well-known, is the minister of my Great Qin's humerus, Your Majesty must not destroy the Great Wall because of the villain's frame-up......"

Bai Fen also looked moved.

The emperor's eldest grandson can't fall—

Not only is it a problem that the soldiers of the three clans of Mengxi Bai are all at the bottom of His Royal Highness, but the white bamboo shoots in his own family are also the objects of His Royal Highness's key cultivation.

Xi Qihong also followed with a deep salute.

"Your Majesty, please think twice......"

The First Emperor didn't explain, but looked at them with a smile.

The three of them talked and talked, and they couldn't go on, because His Majesty's eyes were too weird, and it felt as if something was wrong-

The eyes of this group of old things in the main hall are a little strange, and Meng Wu's old goods are even more underbeaten, and their eyes are like watching a monkey show, even Zuo Xiang Li Si and Zhisu Nei Shi Teng, who have always been known for their old-fashioned and serious looks, have something wrong in their eyes.

What's the situation?

The three of them talked and talked, but they couldn't go on.

It's all a thousand-year-old fox, and this situation is obviously wrong.

Then he saw that the First Emperor nodded at them very eloquently.

"Okay, think twice, think twice, you go down first to change your clothes and drink a bowl of hot soup - you are so old, you are drenched like this, don't suffer any more cold......"

Meng Qing, Xi Qihong and Bai Fen, the three of them looked at each other, and went down in confusion, and a sullen laugh came from behind them.

They heard it, it was the old thing of Mengwu.

I must have overlooked something just now, and let those old things see the joke.
