Chapter 484

Inside the imperial palace of Xianyang City.

Meng Tian had already left the palace, and once again, only Ying Zheng was left in the entire palace.

"Do you think he will blame me for only now deciding to completely eliminate the Xiongnu?"

Ying Zheng suddenly spoke to the entire empty palace.

As soon as his voice fell, Gai Nie's figure immediately appeared in the palace.

"You should have eliminated the Xiongnu long ago."

Gai Nie said with a cold expression.

As early as when he learned that Hearing Ying Mo died at the hands of the Xiongnu, he had intended to go and eliminate all the Xiongnu himself.

He did not have any special feelings for Ying Zheng; the only thing was keeping his promise.

He had to keep his promise to protect Ying Zheng for ten years.

During these ten years, the only person he developed feelings for was Young Master Hearing Ying Mo.

He had watched with his own eyes this little boy slowly grow from a child into a flourishing youth.

During this period, he even taught him everything he had learned.

He had originally thought he could see this youth's magnificent appearance.

And be able to hear rumors about him in the Jianghu.

Even after the ten-year period passed, his own sword skills could still be passed down.

But he did not expect that everything ended five years ago.

The hatred in Gai Nie's heart was no less than Ying Zheng's.

Hearing Ying Mo was the disciple he had taken a fancy to.

His own disciple was killed; how could he not be angry?

If it weren't for following by Ying Zheng's side and keeping the promise of that year.

I am afraid that in Xianyang City, another ghost would have already appeared.

After Ying Zheng finished listening to Gai Nie's words, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

He knew that Gai Nie was blaming him.

"When I first learned that he died at the hands of the Xiongnu, my heart was also filled with anger and hatred."

"I wished I could have the entire Xiongnu buried with him."

"But I couldn't do that; the entire Great Qin couldn't afford it."

Ying Zheng said.

But Gai Nie's expression remained cold, seemingly unmoved.

Ying Zheng stopped narrating.

He knew that no matter what he said, he ultimately could not explain why he still hadn't avenged that child until now.

As the most important person in the entire Great Qin, as the person with the most terrifying power in the entire Great Qin.

The power in his hands could not avenge his own child.

This is a truly sorrowful thing.

"This time I will not let those Xiongnu go; no matter who stops me, I will completely eliminate the Xiongnu."

A fierce light flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes.

This time he had completely made up his mind.

Even if it meant fighting a protracted war with the Xiongnu, he would persist.

"Although I think the Xiongnu should have been eliminated long ago, this matter is suspicious."

Gai Nie spoke coldly.

Although he did think the Xiongnu should have been eliminated long ago, he had to admit that this matter happened too abruptly.

Why did the news of the Xiongnu appear right after the ghost released the news?

Although he did not understand the twists and turns in the officialdom.

But this did not prevent him from feeling that something was wrong.

"I know."

"I know this matter will definitely not be so simple."

Ying Zheng suddenly said at this moment.

A smile appeared on his face, a smile full of schemes.

"Those people just want to use this news to transfer the military power in my hands away."

"I would really like to know what those people will do when I have no military power in my hands."

Ying Zheng said.

Gai Nie did not expect that Ying Zheng had already thought of this point.

He was slightly stunned, but his face remained expressionless.

"Why?"

He asked.

Why continue to do it when you know there is danger?

"This is what I owe him."

"The Xiongnu are like a thorn, tightly stuck in my heart."

"Now is the time to completely pull out this thorn."

Ying Zheng said.

"Even if the Xiongnu hadn't appeared."

"I would still send troops to attack the Xiongnu in the coming time."

Ying Zheng continued.

His body had been ravaged by the previous elixirs too severely.

The entire body had completely collapsed.

Although he could maintain his current state and not let it continue to deteriorate.

It was entirely because of the elixirs the ghost gave him back then.

Ying Zheng dared not gamble on whether his body could fully recover.

He just wanted to completely eliminate the Xiongnu before he died.

Whether for the son who would take his place, or for him.

He could not leave this hidden danger behind.

Gai Nie fell into silence.

Subsequently, the entire figure disappeared into the palace once again.

He had originally thought Ying Zheng did not realize this was a conspiracy.

But he did not expect Ying Zheng to understand it deeper than he knew, and know more than he knew.

And he knew that this matter was a conspiracy specifically set up for him by those people.

But Ying Zheng still jumped into it without hesitation, even knowing it was a conspiracy.
