Chapter 1655

At this time.

Wang Li and Tu Donghai walked in.

"Greetings, Your Majesty."

"Long live Your Majesty."

The two saluted.

"No need for formalities."

"How did the matter go?"

Qin Shi Huang had also heard just now.

That these two went to burn the corpses.

Returning at this time, they should have completed the task.

"The corpses have already started burning."

"After tonight, it is estimated that they will be burned to ashes."

Tu Donghai replied respectfully.

At the same time, he was also very excited.

His Majesty coming in person was a great honor.

This was his first time being in such close contact with His Majesty.

This made him excited as well as very moved.

It was too dangerous here now, yet His Majesty came here regardless of his own safety.

This made them feel warm in their hearts, having a feeling of home.

Just now, they went out to execute the order and felt the wind.

The wind was not blowing toward the city.

They poured fire oil and placed some trees, and the burning work began.

That was why they returned so quickly.

After all, it was a matter that had been prepared long ago.

They only waited for the fire oil to arrive to start burning.

Everyone was just inside the room.

If everyone were outside, they would still be able to see the sky full of firelight.

"Then let's leave it at that for today."

"Whatever else is left, we will deal with it tomorrow."

"Let Father Emperor rest first."

Ying Ying Zi Ye stood out at this time.

The matter was dealt with almost enough.

Things could be dealt with tomorrow.

For now, let Brother Zheng rest for a while.

The others heard this and remembered that it was already very late.

They saluted one after another and withdrew.

"Father Emperor, you rest first."

"Your son will withdraw first."

"We will talk about things tomorrow."

"Go."

Qin Shi Huang nodded with gratification.

Now that late night was approaching, it was time to rest.

Ying Ying Zi Ye saluted.

Only then did he turn and leave the City Magistrate's Mansion.

And the entire City Magistrate's Mansion was also heavily guarded by troops.

His Majesty and the Prince were resting inside.

The defense level here had reached the highest level.

The City Magistrate's Mansion was very large.

The remaining generals also found places around to make do for the night.

The next day.

Everyone woke up early in the morning.

The air in the early morning was usually very fresh.

But they felt a rotten smell in the air when they came in this morning.

Someone immediately went to investigate what was going on.

Before anyone could investigate, soldiers brought news.

It was the smell emitted by the corpses burned last night.

The fire burned for the whole night.

It only went out when it was almost dawn.

The wind was not constant.

It would not always blow in one direction.

It was normal for the wind direction to change occasionally.

Therefore, this smell permeated the city.

Fortunately, the smell was very faint, otherwise it would have made people nauseated.

"This smell..."

Ying Ying Zi Ye frowned slightly.

With this smell around, don't even think about eating breakfast.

"Everyone depart immediately, and wait until we reach the Great Wall to eat breakfast."

Ying Ying Zi Ye had no choice but to issue such an order.

No one objected to anything.

Don't even think about eating in this environment.

Just that smell alone was enough to make people nauseated.

Everyone started to march toward the location of the Great Wall.

An hour later.

Everyone finally arrived at the Great Wall.

There were many soldiers stationed here guarding the Great Wall.

And at this time, logistics were just cooking.

Seeing that more soldiers had arrived.

They hurriedly made more breakfast.

The air here was quite good.

There was no rotten smell like in the city.

After everyone had eaten breakfast.

Meng Tian and the others took Qin Shi Huang up to the Great Wall.

On the Great Wall.

Qin Shi Huang stood at the high platform.

Overlooking the desolation outside the city in the distance.

His state of mind had some ripples.

He didn't remember how long it had been since he stood on the Great Wall overlooking the distance.

This feeling was wonderful.

It had quite the meaning of "climbing to the top of the mountain, I am the peak."

The Great Wall now was different from before. ===== CHAPTER 1657 =====
