Chapter 226

Just for the sake of this position that had trapped him for the better part of his life.

This younger brother of his had actually moved against his nephew, that is, his own Mo'er.

"Ge Nie, take his corpse down."

Ying Zheng stared at Zhao Mingqu's corpse for a long, long time.

Finally, a gloomy voice emerged from the carriage.

It was perhaps the final shred of dignity he could grant this younger brother.

Upon hearing Ying Zheng's words, Ge Nie moved his arm slightly.

Subsequently, the rope hanging Zhao Mingqu's corpse snapped in response.

The corpse hanging at the city gate fell heavily to the ground.

This scene clearly terrified the Imperial Guards who had been guarding the side.

The commander of the Imperial Guards scanned the surroundings and immediately noticed the carriage here.

He also noticed Ying Zheng inside the carriage.

The moment he saw Ying Zheng, the commander of the Imperial Guards immediately knelt down.

After Zhao Mingqu's body fell, Ying Zheng closed the curtain.

"Ge Nie, drive the carriage out of the city."

"I have not left Xianyang City for a very, very long time."

"Let's go for a stroll outside the city."

Ying Zheng's voice at this moment carried a trace of weakness.

It was unclear whether it was weakness of the heart or weakness of the body.

Regarding Ying Zheng's request, Ge Nie did not say much.

The carriage once again began to trot along the official road.

The commander of the Imperial Guards had long since made the necessary arrangements,

and the carriage passed directly through the city gate.

Outside the city,

Ying Mo, who had been standing atop a small hill, naturally saw the scene of Zhao Mingqu's corpse falling.

Upon seeing this, a cold light erupted in his eyes.

"Young Master, shall I hang his corpse back up at the city gate?"

Lu Li sensed the killing intent lingering around Ying Mo.

He immediately asked.

Ying Mo's gaze remained fixed on the gates of Xianyang City.

He also saw the carriage that had passed through the gate and emerged.

He knew.

Hanging Zhao Mingqu's corpse at the gates of Xianyang City was a form of deterrence.

It was a deterrence to those who had participated in the events of five years ago.

But it was also a provocation.

It was a provocation to the entire Great Qin.

And even more so, a provocation to that person.

But Ying Mo no longer cared about these things.

Perhaps he had cared about that person before.

But when the Annan Legion was slaughtered to the last man, when he himself was severely injured,

and after he had waited silently for five years without a result,

he no longer cared about that person.

That person, in his mind, might have also participated in the events of five years ago.

Provocation?

So what?

If he were to find out that that person also participated in the events of five years ago,

then he, Ying Mo, would not mind overturning the entire Great Qin.

From the moment he left the city gate, Ying Zheng had felt a gaze fixed upon him.

That gaze carried a biting killing intent.

But Ying Zheng did not take this gaze to heart.

Ge Nie absolutely had the strength to clear away any riffraff around him.

"Go and see, who exactly is it?"

But this did not mean Ying Zheng could tolerate others staring at him with such a gaze.

He was the Emperor of the entire Great Qin.

Everyone had to submit to him.

If anyone refused to submit, he would kill until the entire world submitted.

Even in middle age, his arrogant, domineering aura would not fade.

As soon as Ge Nie stepped out of the carriage,

his gaze met Ying Mo's.

Upon seeing this familiar figure and these familiar eyes,

Ge Nie's figure paused slightly.

"Ghost."

He quickly recognized Ying Mo's identity.

After all, he had crossed paths with Ying Mo once before.

Ying Mo also did not expect that the person walking out of Xianyang City would be Ge Nie.

Ying Zheng, inside the carriage, upon hearing those two familiar words,

【Garbled/Redacted】

actually crawled directly out of the carriage.

He wanted to see.

He wanted to see what kind of sacred being this Ghost was.

He also wanted to see what abilities this Ghost had to dare provoke the national prestige of his Great Qin again and again.

When Ying Zheng's figure appeared outside the carriage,

whether it was Ying Mo outside or Ying Zheng who had just appeared,

both of them were stunned simultaneously.
