Chapter 678

~4 min read 793 words

Afterward, General Zhang Han used various means, both overt and covert, to probe the Luo Wang, and finally, he reached a definite conclusion.

Luo Wang people only obey the orders of their own superiors.

Except for orders from superiors, no one can command the Luo Wang; if an outsider wants to command a Luo Wang person to do something, they must first obtain prior authorization from the Luo Wang's upper echelons.

Although the Shadow Secret Guards seem to be the same.

But the Shadow Secret Guards are only responsible to His Majesty the Emperor alone; although General Zhang Han is the leader of the Shadow Secret Guards, he is only acting on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor, temporarily in charge of the Shadow Secret Guards.

If His Majesty the Emperor and he were to issue orders to a Shadow Secret Guard person at the same time, the Shadow Secret Guard would only obey the orders of the former and ignore the orders of him, the leader of the Shadow Secret Guards.

The Luo Wang is not so.

The internal hierarchy of the Luo Wang is more rigorous than that of the Shadow Secret Guards—Heaven, Earth, Ghost, and Spirit; those who can command subordinates are only superiors; they execute tasks without asking about right or wrong, and even if this task requires them to attack their own people, they will execute it without hesitation.

To put it nicely, Luo Wang people can use any means to execute tasks; to put it harshly, they are all lawless fanatics who have extinguished their humanity!

Also, after all, most of the members of the Luo Wang have origins that are not very legitimate.

Before they joined the Luo Wang, many were wanted fugitives and criminals from various states, just like Xuan Jian back then, who was a world-famous bandit before joining the Luo Wang.

Today, General Zhang Han came here to report to Seeing Ying Zheng about the matters he investigated regarding the Luo Wang.

Logically speaking, the Shadow Secret Guards and the Luo Wang both serve Qin and can barely be considered colleagues; he should not have arranged the Luo Wang like this, but he couldn't help it as these were all facts, and it was Seeing Ying Zheng's order, so he could only choose to report truthfully.

As for why Seeing Ying Zheng suddenly asked him to investigate the Luo Wang.

Although General Zhang Han also had some conjectures, he did not think about it in detail.

Some things, if one shouldn't know, it's best not to know.

Knowing too much is not a good thing.

"As the State Preceptor said, the Luo Wang indeed has problems!"

Seeing Ying Zheng said to Su Xuan; since conferring the title of State Preceptor on Su Xuan, his way of addressing Su Xuan had also gradually changed; although he could also call him Mr. Su, calling him State Preceptor seemed to show more respect for Su Xuan.

Immediately, he told Su Xuan the things General Zhang Han had reported to him earlier.

Su Xuan's eyes flickered; actually, when he saw General Zhang Han, he guessed that today's matter might be related to the Luo Wang, because that day, after he pointed out the problems with the Luo Wang, he also proposed a method to clear up the problems, which was to let the Shadow Secret Guards take action.

However, there was also a certain probability that it could be something else, so even though he had conjectures, he chose to keep them in his heart; now that Seeing Ying Zheng had spoken, it confirmed his conjectures.

He looked at Seeing Ying Zheng and said: "In Your Majesty's view, how should the Luo Wang be dealt with?"

Seeing Ying Zheng said in a deep voice: "With Qin destroying the six states and the world unified, in order to govern this brand-new nation, the system of our Qin is changing; in order to adapt to this new nation, the Luo Wang indeed needs to be changed!"

The hidden dangers of the Luo Wang pointed out by General Zhang Han made Seeing Ying Zheng think of some past events.

Back then, Lu Buwei had ordered the Luo Wang to assassinate him.

Xuan Jian and Duan Shui, knowing that he was the Qin Wang, still resolutely drew their swords against him with fierce murderous intent, just because, although the Qin Wang was the master of Qin, the Luo Wang at that time was in the hands of Lu Buwei, and they only obeyed Lu Buwei's orders.

Also because of this reason, after regaining the dominance of the Luo Wang, Seeing Ying Zheng purged the Luo Wang, clearing out those who belonged to Lu Buwei and those who belonged to Lao Ai.
