Daqin: Assist Zulong at the beginning and become a public enemy

Chapter 408 Li Si panicked
Chapter 414 Li Si panicked
Li Qi, Li Si's adoptive son who has been hiding in secret.

Li Si sent him to the palace when he was eight years old, but the two had never met in public.After Concubine Li was favored, Li Qi became the gatekeeper and eunuch of Concubine Li's bedroom.

Originally, the entire palace was Zhao Gao's territory. After Zhao Gao's betrayal, the palace carried out a large-scale raid on Zhao Gao's henchmen, but because Li Qi was in Concubine Li's bedroom and had never had contact with Zhao Gao, without being implicated.

This time, Li Qi received the order to assassinate the emperor more than [-] days ago, and the order was given to him by Li Si's people.

It's just because the emperor has not returned, so Li Qi has been waiting.

Tonight, shortly after Ying Zheng and Concubine Li entered Li Concubine's bedroom, people in Li Si's mansion brought daggers, poison sacs and other things to Li Qi through a few people in the underground network who were hidden in the dark and were not found.

Li Qi is not afraid of death, after all his life was given by Li Si.

And Li Si also buried his parents with honor!The eunuchs and palace maids who contacted Li Qi were all explained in great detail, as well as everything Li Qi knew, etc., everything in detail.

Although he has been staying in the palace, what he knows is shocking enough.

Dunwei bowed and stood by Ying Zheng's side, and for the first time there was a look of horror on his face that had always been flat.

Li Si, as the most honored person in the empire, unexpectedly concealed secrets in various palaces of Xianyang Palace without the emperor's back.Although none of them are important positions, they are all in irrelevant places.However, it can often play an unexpected role at critical times.

And these secrets were collected by Li Si through a hook.

Originally, these people were all trained as child prostitutes or prostitutes and sent to nobles from all over the world. Li Si rescued these children who had already learned a little about human affairs, and at the same time controlled their families.

Today, the largest Goulan in Xianyang and even in Qin State actually has Li Si's shadow behind it.

"Go and invite the adults who are waiting outside! You lead the guards and go to seal the fence now. No one is allowed to run away. Remember that anyone who resists will be killed."

Ying Zheng looked at the bamboo slips on the copper case that recorded Li Qi's confession, and murderous intent flickered in his eyes.

"That Li Qi, use it well. Take him to Bagong! Tomorrow, take him to Bashang camp to see who is still there who has not been silenced. There is also the assassin who attacked the south gate guard, alone. They are not allowed to run away either. Now that Xianyang is strictly sealed off, you go and see if they have gained anything. If you catch someone, you immediately take over. What to do, I don’t need to teach you.”

Dun Wei looked at Ying Zheng in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Your Majesty, what should the prime minister do?"

A cold light flickered in Yingzheng's eyes, but seeing Dunwei's sincere gaze, he softened his heart and said, "Send someone to watch, we must not let them leave."

"Hi!"

After Dun Ruo left, Ying Zheng sat in the palace and narrowed his eyes slightly.

What kind of role did Li Si play in tonight's events?

But he knew that the drama hadn't ended yet.

After a short rest, he walked out slowly.

"I see you, Your Majesty!"

Li Si, Zheng Guo, Wei Liao, and Feng Quji, who had been waiting anxiously outside the lobby, walked quickly into the lobby and bowed to Ying Zheng who was sitting in the lobby.

"Well, dear friends, you don't need to be too polite!" Ying Zheng raised his head, swept over the four people in the hall one by one, and finally stopped on Li Si who was bowing and saluting. "I'm fine with what happened tonight, you don't have to worry about it, go back and rest early!"

Several people in the lobby were startled when they heard Ying Zheng's words.

The behavior of the emperor is too strange!

No one would think that the emperor could continue to endure such a thing.Everyone was prepared for the death of a group of people in the court, but they didn't expect that the emperor's attitude would become completely opposite after entering the side hall for more than an hour.

Especially, it wasn't just Concubine Li who died, but also the child in her stomach.

"However, I would like to ask you a question, whether I still have a secret, who can answer me?"

Before Li Si and others could speak, Ying Zheng's faint voice came from above the lobby.As he spoke, Ying Zheng's eyes kept staring at Li Si, who was standing bowed in the hall.

Ying Zheng knew very well that in this hall, if nothing else happened, only he and Li Si should know what he meant.

The expressions of the four important Qin officials in the hall changed drastically when they heard Ying Zheng's words.

Apparently, the captured assassin had said something.

Wei Liao and Feng Quji did not expect that there were really people in Xianyang City who dared to hide Ying Zheng's tricks.

Li Si was truly horrified.

The reason why Li Qi was used was precisely because he knew that he was the one who knew the least, but unexpectedly, he still underestimated him.

Li Si could clearly feel that after the emperor said these words, the cold eyes kept staring at him.

At this moment, for the first time, Li Si felt that riding a tiger was difficult.

"Your servant will not investigate! The crime deserves death!"

Zheng Guo, Wei Liao, and Feng Quji all bowed to plead guilty.

Li Si didn't move.

He knew very well that today would be his most critical moment in decades.He has already stepped into the abyss, and the fate of the entire Li family will be tonight.

Li Si already regretted what happened tonight a little.However, at this moment, he has no regrets about giving him the medicine.

The words Wei Liao once told him, "This Great Qin is Your Majesty's Great Qin after all!" suddenly appeared in Li Si's mind.

"The old minister deserves death."

Li Si finally moved, prostrated himself on the ground, and kowtowed.

Li Si's actions at this moment caused Wei Liao and Feng Quji, who were already extremely shocked, to fall into deep horror again. They stared at Li Si who prostrated himself on the ground in amazement, speechless for a long time.

Smart is mistaken by smart.

It is the best portrayal of Li Si today.

Ying Zheng didn't know whether he should be happy, scold, or lose his temper at this moment.But there was one thing he was sure of. Seeing Li Si kneeling on the ground pleading guilty, at this moment, Ying Zheng's heart really calmed down for the first time tonight.

In fact, from the moment Fusu was abolished, Ying Zheng knew that the relationship between Li Si and himself had really come to an end.

But he also firmly believed in what his father said before his death, that is, a general can be destroyed, but a country cannot be destroyed.

In the eyes of Ying Zheng, Li Si's methods are just childish methods, and in front of his own strong strength, they are just courting death.Ying Zheng just wanted to know what role Li Si played in the series of events tonight, and what he knew.
