Chapter 22
“You must not forget, that Emperor on the dragon throne!!!”
“The death of Zhao Baili has already alarmed those in the imperial court!”
“If His Majesty the First Emperor senses something is wrong because of this, he will certainly investigate what happened five years ago, and by then...”
Before Zhao Gao could finish his sentence, the man in black suddenly sneered, a flash of disdain in his eyes: “What is there to fear? How much longer can he, Ying Zheng, live?!”
The third chapter of the day is here!
Phew, the author is working hard to release more chapters, kneeling and begging everyone for flowers and evaluation tickets for support!!
Please, everyone,
This new book relies on these data points for support!!
Zhao Gao felt a fear of Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng
that came from the depths of his bones.
Precisely because of this,
he was so terrified
that the Ghost’s killing of Zhao Baili would arouse Ying Zheng’s suspicion,
leading him to investigate the events of five years ago and eventually uncover him.
Moreover,
he knew very well
that the reason Ying Zheng had not investigated the events of five years ago
was because
he had never suspected
that Young Master Mo’s battle five years ago had ended due to a conspiracy.
Ying Zheng truly believed that his heroic son had been defeated and died in a fair and square battle.
Although grief-stricken,
he was proud of his son’s bravery!
However,
if Ying Zheng were to have any suspicions,
he would certainly investigate with all his might,
and at that time, with Ying Zheng’s methods, he would surely uncover something...
When that time came,
he, Zhao Gao,
would surely die without a burial place!
Yet,
the few men in black robes,
seeing Zhao Gao’s fearful appearance, sneered repeatedly and stated bluntly that Ying Zheng would not live much longer!
“His Majesty, he...”
Upon hearing the men in black say this, Zhao Gao’s face changed drastically.
In his mind,
the recent state of Ying Zheng immediately surfaced.
Zhao Gao knew
that ever since five years ago,
after the incident with Young Master Mo,
Ying Zheng had undergone tremendous changes, and these changes were not just emotional...
but physical changes to Ying Zheng’s body!
Not to mention anything else,
just looking at the hair on Ying Zheng’s head,
it was turning white year by year at a speed visible to the naked eye!
And...
now Ying Zheng had even begun to seek immortality!
He was not the only one who knew that Ying Zheng’s health was getting worse and worse!
But...
no one dared to bring it up!
“Zhao Gao, you see Ying Zheng often; are you not clear about his current state?”
Seeing Zhao Gao’s drastically changing expression, one of the men in black robes sneered.
“Ying Zheng’s body is getting worse by the day; it is a sign that his time is running out...”
“He will soon...”
“be dead!”
“In this situation, what do you have to worry about?”
“After Ying Zheng dies, this world will belong to my master!”
“My master has also divined Ying Zheng’s lifespan, and the conclusion reached is also that Ying Zheng’s time is running out!”
Another man in black robes spoke up then, saying to Zhao Gao: “You should know very well who my master is, Zhao Gao!”
“With my master’s methods, what he says will certainly come to pass without any error!”
“So...”
“you have absolutely no need to be afraid or terrified of Ying Zheng now...”
“After all, he is merely...”
“a dying man!”
The words of the three men in black robes fell into Zhao Gao’s ears.
It calmed his originally fearful and terrified mood slightly,
however,
at this moment,
his face still bore a look of deep worry, and the anxious light in his eyes would not fade.
“I advise the people behind the three of you not to underestimate His Majesty too much...”
Zhao Gao gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: “I am often by His Majesty’s side, and I am very clear about his terror...”
“If those behind you underestimate His Majesty, the consequences will be very serious!”
Hearing this, the three of them curled their lips in disapproval.
The leader, a tall and thin man, said coldly: “My master is not someone you, Zhao Gao, can lecture!”
The other two also spoke up one after another.
“My master devises strategies within a tent, and everything is under his control!”
“My Mr. calculates the fortunes of the world, using the heavens and earth as a chessboard and the common people as pawns! There is nothing in this world that my Mr. cannot control!”
Clearly, these three men in black robes, representing different factions,
did not take what Zhao Gao said to heart.
They
were all full of confidence in the people behind them.
Seeing this,
Zhao Gao frowned,
feeling very unhappy and annoyed,
but there was nothing he could do!
“Since you are all so confident...”
Zhao Gao took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth: “Then tell me now, what should we do next?!”
“How should we handle the aftermath of Zhao Baili’s affair?”
“Even if His Majesty is dying, he is not dead yet!”
“As long as His Majesty is alive, none of us can openly cause trouble!”
“If we cannot stop him from investigating the truth of five years ago before he dies, and he finds it out...”
“Then we will all still have to die; no one will be able to escape!!!”
When Zhao Gao said this,
his tone was very serious.
There was not a hint of joking.
Clearly...
he truly believed this!
The three men in black robes looked at each other after hearing Zhao Gao’s words.
In the end,
they all nodded slightly, feeling that what Zhao Gao said made sense.
Although,
their words were full of contempt for Ying Zheng,
however,
these people knew clearly in their hearts!
Dealing with Ying Zheng required sufficient caution!
Even if they claimed to look down on him or not care...
they had to be extremely careful in their actions!
Otherwise,
Ying Zheng would destroy them all, killing them down to the last one!!!
“In that case...”
One of the men in black robes pondered for a moment before saying leisurely: “Do not act rashly; wait for our news. Zhao Gao, go back immediately and do nothing...”
“Just do what you usually do. As for your nephew Zhao Baili...”
The group began to discuss.
And just then,
“Creak—”
A creaking sound came from the door, and it was suddenly pushed open!
