Chapter 364

So, the moment Ying Zheng spoke those words, no one among the crowd harbored the slightest doubt!

And as for the messenger who brought the news?

Upon hearing Ying Zheng's words, he was utterly stunned; at that moment, he immediately knelt before Ying Zheng and shouted aloud, questioning the authenticity of this good news and so on!

But who would listen to him!

The moment Ying Zheng gave the order, someone immediately covered his mouth and dragged him out!

To spare them the trouble of his noise and clamor disturbing everyone's enjoyment!

Then, the crowd continued to sing and dance.

Ying Zheng continued to chat and laugh with everyone, playing and having fun!

Everything proceeded as if nothing had happened!

Not long after, he made the excuse of having drunk too much and left the place directly!

Since he had already left, this welcome banquet naturally could not last much longer.

Not long after, everyone dispersed!

However, Li Si, Zhuge Liang, as well as Zuo Zuo Zongtang, Kill Xiao He, and Yuan Chonghuan—these confidants of Facing Ying Su—did not leave a single one!

They all exchanged glances, and finally, they all headed toward Li Si's Prime Minister's residence!

To hold a council!

As for what they discussed, no one knew!

Because it was too secret!

It was truly too secret!

Even the people of the Net could not monitor them, let alone overhear their conversation!

Because... the place where they discussed matters was underground!

And the only entrance leading underground was strictly guarded by hundreds of soldiers led by Fu Hao!

And naturally, Ying Zheng also held a similar discussion!

Not long after the banquet dispersed, inside Ying Zheng's sleeping quarters!

The moment he arrived there, he ordered Zhao Gao to be informed and sent away!

Then, he personally opened a secret compartment!

Finally, he climbed inside!

Not long after, two figures completely shrouded in black robes entered Ying Zheng's sleeping quarters!

They actually knew about this secret compartment too!

Once opened, they immediately went inside!

And after they entered the secret compartment, they traveled through various passages until they reached an underground secret chamber!

"Li Xin, Wei Wei Liaozi, we kneel and pay homage to the Emperor!"

As they knelt and bowed, they also looked at Seeing Ying Zheng with hearts pounding in terror!

Because... at this very moment, Seeing Ying Zheng's expression was simply too terrifying!

Gloomy, cold, with killing intent reaching the heavens!

Such an aura made Li Xin and Wei Wei Liaozi tremble and shiver all over!

And only after a long while did Seeing Ying Zheng manage to withdraw the killing intent he had projected!

Finally, he gazed at the two of them for a long time!

These must be the two people he trusted the most, right?

One held control over his military power!

He was the Grand Commandant personally appointed by him!

In charge of mobilizing troops throughout the realm!

Any army wishing to be mobilized required his permission!

The other had even saved the throne in the most critical moment, facing danger!

Giving him the capital to confront Facing Ying Su!

Anyone in this world could betray; surely they would not betray, right?

Seeing Ying Zheng thought this in his heart and pondered for a long while!

Finally, he spoke, addressing the two of them:

"The good news from Tell Meng Wu is true!"

"What?"

The moment those words were spoken, Wei Wei Liaozi and Li Xin were simply stunned!

Especially Wei Wei Liaozi; at this very moment, he felt the sky was about to collapse!

At that moment, his head buzzed; for a time, he swallowed hard, staring blankly at Seeing Ying Zheng!

At this very moment, he felt only terror!

Utterly terrifying!

Even Li Xin was likewise trembling all over!

Seeing Ying Zheng continued:

"If this report is true!"

"Then... without a doubt, our Great Qin will face an unprecedented turmoil!"

"This turmoil could even destroy our Qin state; at the very least, the feudal system will begin to be implemented!"

"Now, our Great Qin is about to face an unprecedented calamity!"

160. Kill Ying Su! Exploit the common people! Return grain to the nobles! The First Emperor faces a difficult choice!

Inside Xianyanggong!

At this very moment, Ying Zheng spoke!

And once these words were spoken, Li Xin was shocked, Wei Liaozi was shocked, and even Zhao Gao flinched!

However, after the shock!

Zhao Gao felt that Ying Zheng was exaggerating!

Even... making things sound more dire than they were!

Indeed!

Before Ying Su rebelled, when Great Qin had neither Li Yuanba nor Li Cunxiao, nor Han Xin's hundred thousand troops, there was no danger of the nation falling; how can it fall now?

Let alone that time, even during the most difficult period of destroying the six states, no one spoke of the nation falling!

But now... Li Yuanba and Li Cunxiao are merely dead, and Ying Su's hundred thousand men have dwindled to just twenty thousand; how can the nation fall?

However... since these words came from Ying Zheng, Zhao Gao dared not say much!

But... regardless of Zhao Gao's thoughts, Wei Liaozi fully believed Ying Zheng was right!

The nation falling is truly quite possible!

Why?

Can the current situation be the same as the situation during the destruction of the six states?

During the war of destroying the six states, everyone in Qin was united, with one heart and one will!

Everyone's goal was completely identical!

That was to destroy the six states and unify the world!

Because unifying the world was an act of making the cake bigger!

All Qin people could gain enormous benefits from it!

But after destroying the six states and unifying the world, everything changed!

Driven by interests, various factions began to stir!

Many people, for their own private gain, began various open and covert struggles!

Moreover, in terms of distributing interests, Ying Zheng was indeed unfair; far too much wealth flowed into the Qin royal family! And instead of distributing this wealth to them, it was used to build the Great Wall!

This caused great dissatisfaction in the hearts of many!

And in order to gain greater and larger interests!

Thus, restoring the feudal system naturally arose!

This is something many people desire!
