Chapter 1203

~5 min read 856 words

By the time Han Fei recognized reality and chose to enter officialdom, he could only hold the position of Grand Tutor.

However, even Han Fei had to admit that his fellow disciple Li Si, after holding the position of Commandant of Justice, could be called diligent and conscientious, doing an impeccable job; even if he were to hold the position of Commandant of Justice, it would be no better than this.

In the Commandant of Justice's office.

During this period, Li Si's mood was very heavy; the matter of His Majesty the Emperor summoning him to the palace that day kept lingering in his heart, although he eventually realized that the person His Majesty the Emperor truly wanted to target was the Eighteenth Young Master Hu Hai.

The fact that Hu Hai was demoted to a commoner confirmed this.

But before His Majesty the Emperor summoned Hu Hai, why did he summon him first?

And that question.

Was it that His Majesty the Emperor thought he was a two-faced person who might have defected to the Eighteenth Young Master?

Although he managed to save his life because he answered the question correctly.

But as a person with great ambition, that incident still made Li Si feel vigilant.

In the past, for the sake of his future, he could first defect to Lu Buwei and then secretly defect to the King of Qin, Ying Zheng.

It can be said that his current power and status all relied on Ying Zheng's trust.

If Ying Zheng no longer trusted him, this would not be a good thing.

One must know that although he had sat firmly in the position of Commandant of Justice, he was not irreplaceable.

Whether it was his fellow disciple Han Fei or Zhang Liang, who was currently serving in the Commandant of Justice's office, both were people who could replace him, especially Zhang Liang; in recent years, his ability had become increasingly outstanding, and even Li Si had to admit that there were truly many talents who followed his senior brother Han Fei in the past.

If it weren't for the foundation of the State of Han being there and already completely hopeless, relying on these people, his senior brother Han Fei's Quicksand might have truly achieved something great.

Just as Li Si was thinking this.

Yanfei found Li Si.

After knowing the State Preceptor's intention, Li Si felt as if he had suddenly encountered sweet dew during a severe drought.

Actually, there was no need to continue to curry favor with His Majesty; if he could get closer to the State Preceptor, that was also a way.

Li Si immediately took on the task Yanfei had entrusted to him.

A few days later, when the rumors about the Daoist School were still fermenting in Xianyang.

In an inn in Xianyang City.

The Sect Master of the School of Names, Gongsun Linglong, was letting out a smug laugh: "You Daoists pride yourselves on being aloof and look down on me; I would like to see how you will deal with this this time?"

What she wanted to see most was probably the rumors fermenting and the Daoist School directly tearing off the mask with the Yin-Yang School.

Preaching?

What kind of preaching is it without her participation?

If one cannot get what one wants, then destroy it.

This was one of Gongsun Linglong's life creeds.

Chi Chi Songzi looked down on her, so she chose to let Chi Chi Songzi see the power of words.

Just as Gongsun Linglong was feeling smug about her scheme.

Boom!!

With a loud noise, the door of the room where Gongsun Linglong was located was suddenly blasted open.

Gongsun Linglong heard this sound and was immediately furious; she turned her head abruptly, wanting to see who was so ignorant of what was good for them that they dared to trespass into her room.

She saw a gentle and handsome young man.

The young man's appearance was extremely handsome; Gongsun Linglong was stunned after seeing him, and the anger in her heart also dissipated abruptly.

"Who are you?"

The other party was so handsome, and Gongsun Linglong considered herself to be the Sect Master of the School of Names, so the other party could barely be considered worthy of her; therefore, she prepared to get to know this young man.

It is a pity that Gongsun Linglong's good intentions were destined to be wasted on a blind man.

After she spoke, the handsome young man opposite her also revealed a playful smile at the corner of his mouth: "Master Gongsun, your matter has been exposed."

"Someone reported your rumor-mongering to our Commandant of Justice's office, so please come with us!"

Gongsun Linglong's expression suddenly froze.

She never expected that this group of people would actually come from the Commandant of Justice's office.

Gongsun Linglong subconsciously wanted to defend herself, but unfortunately, this group of yamen runners ignored Gongsun Linglong and took her away regardless.

And so, after personally experiencing the oppressive feeling brought by Chi Chi Songzi's power, Gongsun Linglong felt the oppressive feeling brought by absolute power once again.
