Chapter 584: Dealing with Feng Quji and Li Zhen, leave it to Prince Fusu

~5 min read 861 words

Looking at this scene before them, neither Feng Quji nor Li Zhen dared to speak.

If they spoke at this time, it would undoubtedly shift Made Ying Zheng's gaze onto them.

Both of them knew in their hearts what they had done.

What they wanted most now was to minimize their presence.

Made Ying Zheng kept a straight face, looking at this group of people below with a serious expression.

Recently, because of his physical weakness, he had been lying on his sickbed every day.

These court officials below had rarely seen such a majestic side of Made Ying Zheng.

Seeing this scene, the group of people below Made Ying Zheng once again remembered how mighty and domineering His Majesty had been before.

Made Ying Zheng looked at Wang Jian with burning eyes and then spoke.

"Although the sins committed by Wang Ben cannot be forgiven."

"But considering that you are also an old minister of Great Qin and have put your heart and blood into Great Qin."

"You may retire to your hometown."

Made Ying Zheng said slowly.

Upon hearing Made Ying Zheng's words, Watching Zhang Han and Prince Fusu both breathed a sigh of relief.

Retiring to his hometown, although he had lost everything, at least he had saved his life.

And His Majesty, after all, had left the old General Wang with his final dignity.

Retiring to his hometown, he would still return to his ancestral land with the status of a Grand General.

Wang Jian's body trembled violently.

He did not expect that His Majesty would ultimately spare his life.

"Your subject obeys the decree."

A trembling voice came from Wang Jian's mouth.

His heart was also indescribably complex.

He had originally thought that he would surely die today, but he did not expect that His Majesty would still grant him such great grace.

"Your subject thanks His Majesty."

Wang Jian's head knocked heavily on the ground once again.

The bloodstains that had already congealed began to flow again.

Having finished dealing with Wang Jian's matter, Made Ying Zheng's gaze immediately shifted to Feng Quji and Li Zhen.

Since Wang Jian knelt on the ground, these two had also knelt on the ground with a thud.

But their movements were smaller, so for a moment, no one had noticed them.

Silence spread in the study.

Even with his head lowered, Feng Quji could still feel that oppressive gaze.

He felt that the gaze seemed to have already enveloped him.

"Your Majesty, your subject only received news, so I came to the palace to check the situation."

Feng Quji was silent for a long while, and finally said tremblingly.

He felt that if he did not speak, the atmosphere would continue to be silent.

"Oh, why don't you tell me what news you received?"

A cold smile appeared on Made Ying Zheng's face, with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

But listening to his tone, it seemed he was just asking casually.

Feng Quji, with his head lowered, did not see the expression on Made Ying Zheng's face.

He only judged from Made Ying Zheng's words that it seemed His Majesty had not discovered what he had done.

His slightly stiff and trembling body eased a little.

"Your subject only received news from Lord Li, so I accompanied Lord Li into the palace."

Feng Quji said, pressing his head down tightly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zhen, who had been kneeling there calmly, raised his head in disbelief.

He looked at Feng Quji with an expression of disbelief.

He seemed somewhat puzzled; how could he possibly say such words?

"Your Majesty, I..."

Li Zhen instantly realized what Feng Quji wanted to do; he raised his head and prepared to explain to Made Ying Zheng.

Made Ying Zheng's oppressive gaze looked at Li Zhen.

The moment Li Zhen met Made Ying Zheng's gaze.

He felt a powerful pressure.

When he felt this pressure, he suddenly did not know how to speak.

What was he to say?

Was he to say the purpose of his coming tonight?

If he truly said it truthfully, I fear he would surely die here tonight.

Li Zhen had never expected that this old thing, Feng Quji, would push everything onto him.

The anxiety on his face had diluted the original fear and panic.

His brain, which had been somewhat blank due to anger, slowly recovered somewhat.

"Your subject only heard the movement coming from the street."

"Then I pulled Lord Feng and rushed over to check on your situation, Your Majesty."

Li Zhen was silent for a while, and then spoke.

When he finished saying these words, Made Ying Zheng, who was above his head, did not speak.

Silence spread in the study once again.

The two people with their heads lowered did not see the mockery on Made Ying Zheng's face deepen once again.

Whether it was Watching Zhang Han or Prince Fusu, they all looked at these two with the eyes of looking at fools.

For tonight's events to reach this point, how could they not know that these two had also participated in it. ===== CHAPTER 586 =====
