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

Chapter 416 The Traitor Sima Xin

Chapter 422 Traitor Sima Xin

Li Si's death made Li Si's officials lose their backbone.Although Li You was promoted to Wei Wei by Ying Zheng, he was not comparable to Feng Quji in terms of seniority, age, or official position.

Fortunately, Yingzheng issued an edict to let Li Si's daughter Li Jue marry Ying Gang, which gave Li Si's officials hope.

Although Ying Gang only took a vain position as Prime Minister of the Right, everyone knew that this was just the road that Ying Zheng paved for him.

As long as Ying Gang becomes the future Emperor of Qin, a series of officials of the Li family will surely rise.

At that time, it will not be difficult to surpass other forces again.

In the ten days after Li Si's funeral, apart from promulgating a series of edicts such as abolishing slavery and changing the salary system, Ying Zheng devoted most of his energy to rectifying the internal and external affairs of Xianyang Palace.

Inside, there are naturally many eunuchs and court ladies in Xianyang Palace.Outside, there are the imperial guards and guards responsible for the guards of Xianyang Palace.

After being identified by Li Qi, all the eunuchs and maids in Xianyang Palace have successively found out the secret operations of more than [-] different forces. These eunuchs and maids were all executed in secret, and the remaining eunuchs and maids were ordinary people who had undergone strict screening. .

At the same time, the guards of the various gates of Xianyang Palace are also handed over to the Black Ice Terrace.

The imperial army and the guards were stroked.After comparing the roster, more than a hundred spies were found, who were also secretly executed.

The Black Ice Platform and Luowang were also ordered by Ying Zheng to strictly rectify, because through the roster handed in by Li Si, more than [-] people related to him were found in the Black Ice Platform. Although Li Si was dead, Ying Zheng Zheng also had to sigh with emotion, the old man's hand was indeed very long.

Based on Yingzheng's edict, all parts of Guanzhong, which are peaceful and prosperous on the outside, are full of blood and rain on the inside.It's just that the bloody storm was strictly controlled, and it basically didn't cause too much disturbance in Guanzhong.

After dealing with these, Ying Zheng began to look for the person who betrayed their internal military situation to the state of Chu.

Originally, Ying Zheng suspected that Li Si did it, but obviously, Li Si didn't do it.Moreover, Li Si only admitted the assassination of the palace and Feng Quji, Wei Liao and others.At the same time, it points out that there are third-party forces in Xianyang who are taking advantage of the troubled waters.

Those who want to take advantage of the troubled waters obviously have something to attract them.

Now that both the assassination and Li Si's funeral were over, these people naturally couldn't hide forever, and they were bound to take action.

Fortunately, Yingzheng and the others were not completely clueless. After discussing some matters with Yingzheng, Yingzheng finally found an exact person among countless clues.

In order to properly handle this matter, Ying Zheng decided to leave everything to Ying Gang.

After Ying just got Ying Zheng's permission, the people who used the black ice platform quickly controlled the person who delivered the information.

Then he used his hidden power to spread the news that this person was under control to Zhang Liang's mansion.

Since Zhang Liang came to Xianyang, he has been reclusive all the time, except for one time at Li Si's funeral, he never showed up again.

But he is not a person who does not listen to things outside the window and only reads sage books.

When he learned that Ying Zheng started to investigate the mastermind behind the scenes, he quickly became alert and asked his servants to report the news.

Unexpectedly, his move hit Ying Gang's hands.

By following the vine, Ying Gang also knew who tipped Xiang Yu off.

Sima Xin, Dong Yi, and Ying Gang could not help but see the tens of thousands of people in Xingyang City who were killed and injured by the conquest of other countries, and the innocent eyes of many children who lost their parents and suffered innocent massacres in that war.

These people could have been saved from that indiscriminate disaster.It was precisely because of the betrayal of Sima Xin and Dong Yi that not only put the Qin army in danger, but also caused the death and injury of tens of thousands of innocent people.

Even though the Qin army won, it was unexpected that these two guys not only did not escape for their lives, but continued to hide in Xianyang City.

Moreover, Sima Xin's position is not too low at the moment.

The chief minister of the prime minister's mansion is usually the person closest to him. After all, the chief minister of the prime minister holds too many secrets of the Great Qin Dynasty.

It is precisely because of his special position that he has a lot of first-hand information.

And not only that, when Li Si assassinated Ying Zheng, he ordered his accomplice Dong Yi to attack from the south gate, attacking Li Si and others.

Afterwards, Sima Xin did not escape but chose to stay in Xianyang. What he did in front of his nominal prime minister Shi Shi was naturally to continue to provide information to Xiang Yu. How bold is this?
Ying Gang couldn't figure out why Sima Xin hated him and Li Si, the Prime Minister of the Great Qin Dynasty, who had given him a high position.Willing to deal with his benefactor for the enemy country.

Bitter murderous aura suddenly spread from Ying Gang's body, and the temperature in the entire room suddenly dropped to freezing point.

"Go and ransack Sima's house. No one in the whole house can be missed. And Sima Xin, don't let him die, I want to see him." Ying Gang looked at Li Qing, the leader of the Black Ice Terrace, and said coldly.

"Yes!" Li Qing felt the anger on the young master, and the Alliance bowed in response.

"By the way, call me the Shaofu Zhang Han."

Ying Gang didn't forget one thing.

That is the relationship between Zhang Han and Sima Xin.

In the Battle of Julu in history, Zhang Han, Sima Xin, and Dong Yi commanded the Qin army. Although Dong Yi's official position is very low, the relationship between Zhang Han and Sima Xin is very good. secret.

If Zhang Han was also influenced by this person, Ying Gang couldn't believe what would happen.

In particular, Zhang Han now holds the position of Shaofu, which directly affects Yingzheng's safety. If he has two minds, he has to make preparations early.

The peaceful Sima Mansion was suddenly intruded into the mansion by a large number of black ice towers. Li Qing took the lead and led more than ten guards to Sima Xin's study.The young master has already said that he wants to meet the living Sima Xin in person.

And Li Qing also knew very well that once Sima Xin broke into the Sima Mansion, the most sensible thing for Sima Xin, as a traitor, was to commit suicide to apologize.Only in this way can it be possible to escape the possibility of the emperor killing the entire Sima clan.Li Qing understood this very well. Time was precious to both of them, so he naturally did not dare to neglect his actions.

Fortunately, they investigated the terrain of Sima Mansion very early, and they also knew exactly where Sima Xin was.

Because of the sudden commotion in the mansion, Sima Xin, who just got up to see what happened, hadn't fully stood up yet, the originally closed door of the study suddenly shattered into several pieces and flew out with a loud noise.

As the sawdust flew, Sima Xin, who was stunned, looked at Li Qing who appeared outside the broken gate, and his face turned pale.All the strength in his body was drained in an instant, and he fell helplessly to the ground.

Although Li Qing, the commander of the Black Ice Terrace, has a pitiful position, the power in his hands is astonishingly great. As a special army that directly obeys the emperor's orders, the owner has the power to kill first and act later.

Since they came to the door, they must be extremely sure.

Resisting in front of them is tantamount to courting death.

Li Qing looked at Sima Xin in front of him, and said calmly: "Master Sima, you are welcome, please!"
