Encounter Qin Shihuang on a deserted island

Chapter 98 Cut the grass to get rid of the roots, the wild fire is endless, and the spring breeze blows again

In fact, he was in contact with the remnants of the six countries, and even more so with the small countries in the land of Baiyue.

Nanhai County is just one step away from Baiyue, Feng Quji is not a fool, he has already prepared himself.

However, Zhao Gao was very smart, he didn't come forward to contact the remnants of the Six Kingdoms himself, but let his son-in-law join hands with the heirs of the Mohist family to collude with the remnants.

He personally led his troops to the sea to look for the first emperor. Although he didn't say anything on the surface, everyone who understood understood it.

It was just a show to confuse the ministers in the court, so that they could not stabilize their positions and become chaotic.

At that time, it would be the best time for him, Zhao Gao, to take advantage of the chaos. Of course, he would also want to personally confirm that the First Emperor was really lost and missing.

Who knows, the weather is not good, just when he wanted to turn back, he encountered a big storm, which prevented them from going back to the deserted island.

I have to say that Zhao Gao is really a chicken thief.

Knowing that even if Hu Hai was appointed to the throne, his chances of winning would not be much better, so he secretly colluded with the remnants of the Six Kingdoms and the barbarians from the Land of Baiyue.

With their help, Hu Hai was supported to proclaim himself emperor, and dissatisfied voices in the court were suppressed.

Pity those remnants of the Six Kingdoms!Even now, he is still dreaming of restoration, but he doesn't know that Zhao Gao plotted him to death.

Listening to what Bai Qi said, Chang Yu felt chills in his heart, Zhao Gao's city is too deep.

"Zhao Gao."

The first emperor spoke.

"The minister is here."

Zhao Gao quickly got up and lay down on top.

"Do you have something to say?"

Zhao Gao was stunned for a while, and then he said tremblingly, "I have been wronged!"

Until now, Zhao Gao can only smash the jars, maybe he can escape the catastrophe.

"I have never had the intention of treason. These are all framed by others and have nothing to do with me!"

"Since your Majesty's accidental disappearance, I immediately rushed to Nanhai County when I heard the news!"

"Where is the time to contact the barbarians of Baiyue, how can there be time to collude with the remnants of the Six Kingdoms to rebel!"

"I implore Your Majesty to investigate clearly and return my innocence!"

Zhao Gaofu cried bitterly, as pitiful as he looked.

Looking at his appearance of begging for mercy and proving his innocence and the crying around his ears.

Even Chang Yu lamented in his heart that the acting skills of some young actors were not even as good as those of eunuchs.

Obviously, the "other" he mentioned was none other than Feng Quji who arranged for Bai Qi to come over.

Who is Feng Quji?
One of the two prime ministers of the Great Qin Dynasty, he was the most trusted civil servant of Qin Shihuang, and his status was comparable to that of Li Si.

Why did Feng Quji pay attention to this, and even asked Bai Qi to investigate this?
As I said earlier, Emperor Shihuang was a suspicious king, and he would take care of everything to prevent accidents.

Before leaving Xianyang Palace for the east tour, he had personally explained some things to Feng Quji.

Among them, regarding this matter, the investigation into Zhao Gao's matter was ordered by the First Emperor himself.

what? !

Zhao Gao was astonished like a thunderbolt, his expression was cloudy and uncertain, and he was extremely frightened.

"Do you think, General Bai Qi, Feng Quji would be transferred from Xianyang Palace so easily?"

One of the arrangements is related to Baiqi.

Whether it is General Montessori or other generals, they are too famous to be followed or sniffed out.

Bai Qi is different, although he is known as the god of death, he will not be taken too seriously, or he will not dare to approach him at all.

If he finds anything, Feng Quji will ask Bai Qi to personally lead his troops out of Xianyang City to find the First Emperor.

On the contrary, if there is nothing, there is no need to be afraid of being intercepted by someone with a heart, just send someone out of the palace at will.

Why was Bai Qi stopped by some people when he left the palace?
Of course it is Zhao Gao's confidant, otherwise who in Xianyang Palace would dare to stop this God of Killing?
"Bai Qi, do you have anything to add?"

Shi Huang shook Xiu Pao and turned his back, ignoring Zhao Gao who fell to the ground in astonishment.

Bai Qi glanced at Zhao Gao. He didn't want to continue talking. He had said enough.

But how can Bai Qi be a person who swallows his anger?When I was about to come out of Xianyang City, I was 'taken care of' by many people!

Bai Qi snorted coldly, clasped his fists and continued, "Continue to touch along the line of Zhao Mansion."

"We found that Prime Minister Zhao colluded with many civil servants in the palace."

Zhao Gao is the head of the three lords, a high-ranking and powerful minister who governs the Jiuqing.

Among the nine ministers, three had close contacts with Zhao Gao, and they were Zhao Gao's back-up men in the palace.

If Zhao Gao wants to rebel, the three ministers will immediately threaten the prince and princess.

When the first emperor heard this, his expression was gloomy and cold, not angry but arrogant.

Zhao Gao lost his mind and sat down on the ground trembling with fear.

Bai Qi would not talk nonsense, he dared to say it, it must be Feng Quji's order, and it also shows that he has enough substantive evidence, otherwise Bai Qi would not say it in front of Zhao Gao, even in front of the first emperor I dare not, after all, Zhao Gao's high position and power are difficult to deal with.

The First Emperor turned his face slightly and said coldly.

"In the past, you committed a capital crime and should have been put to death according to the law."

"But I love you so dearly that I forgive you."

When the words fell, Bai Qi drew out his saber and offered it with both hands without the need for a signal from the First Emperor.

The First Emperor reached out and grabbed it.

bang.

The saber was thrown in front of Zhao Gao's eyes.

Zhao Gao lost his mind, despair gradually flashed in his eyes, but he didn't make any further excuses.

"From today onwards, Zhao Gao's royal status will be abolished, and his position as Sangong and Chefu Order will be removed."

The words of the first emperor spread from the bamboo house and fell into the ears of many soldiers and Li Si.

Except for the insider Li Si and the others, everyone else was horrified and didn't know what happened.

Although nothing was said clearly, the meaning was already obvious.

The first emperor gave Zhao Gao death, cutting off all his retreats.

why?
No one understands what happened.

Zhao Gao came all the way to rescue him, but he was given to death without even talking a few words? !
Although everyone was very puzzled, no one dared to question Shi Huang's decision.

Li Si and the others who knew about it just sighed deeply.

What should come is coming after all, and what cannot be avoided cannot be avoided.

Looking at the saber on the ground, Zhao Gao didn't make any excuses, and grabbed it with trembling hands.

"Your Majesty, I beg you, please let the ladies go. They don't know that they are innocent."

When things came to an end, he was still pleading for his family. This guy is also a kind and righteous person.

It is inevitable that Emperor Shi Huang felt compassion in his heart.

After all, he really wasn't a tyrant and wouldn't kill anyone indiscriminately.

However, there is also a saying.

Weeds need to be cut to get rid of their roots, wild fires are endless, and spring breeze blows to regenerate them.

The first emperor turned his back to Zhao Gao, without saying a word, his attitude was already obvious.

Tears welled up in Zhao Gao's eyes at once.

He didn't say anything more, and slowly raised the sword and pointed it at himself.

When the sword was about to fall, Zhao Gao raised his head and looked at Shi Huangdi.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Gao does not regret following you."

"If there is an afterlife, Zhao Gao is willing to assist Daqin."

"It's just that next time, Zhao Gao won't pretend to be smart."
