Chapter 12: Today Zhao Gao Dares to Borrow Your Majesty's Head for a Moment

~8 min read 1,456 words

"Your Majesty, I do not understand your meaning; I have always been loyal and devoted to Great Qin."

Zhao Gao did not hesitate and kowtowed several times on the ground.

"Your Majesty, my loyalty to Great Qin is as clear as the sun and the moon."

At this moment, Zhao Gao only suspected that others had been sowing discord in front of Ying Zheng, saying something.

He still did not believe that he had already been exposed.

Because during his time as Chief of the Carriage Office, he had indeed always worked for Great Qin and had never made any mistakes.

Ying Zheng grew increasingly disappointed; he would not execute someone casually because of that so-called future history.

Yet, the scene before his eyes left him no choice but to believe it.

He was the Emperor, the empire of Great Qin.

Behind him, he carried the nation and the myriad people, so he could not afford to make any mistakes.

Ying Zheng said coldly, "Zhao Gao, I never do things without certainty."

Hearing these words from Ying Zheng, Zhao Gao's heart sank completely.

Yes, the First Emperor never did things without a target.

Since he asked like this now, it meant he had grasped definitive evidence.

Zhao Gao did not know how Ying Zheng had discovered everything he had hidden, but he knew that continuing to deny it at this moment was useless.

Zhao Gao stood up from the ground; this attendant, who had always been humble, looked directly at Ying Zheng for the first time in the true sense.

For all these years, he had wanted to overthrow Great Qin.

"Zhao clan member Gao pays respects to the King of Qin."

Zhao Gao bowed to Ying Zheng, in the capacity of a Zhao clan member, not as the Chief of the Carriage Office.

"Your Majesty, why are you not a man of my Zhao State?"

A long sword appeared in Zhao Gao's hand, and he stared at Ying Zheng, saying, "Your Majesty, you have been as kind to me as a mountain, but I am sorry, there is a national feud and family hatred between us."

"Therefore, today Zhao Gao dares to borrow Your Majesty's head for a moment."

Ying Zheng sneered and said, "No need to speak of your deep-seated hatred; I am too lazy to listen."

Zhao State?

What does the Zhao State count for?

Great Qin exerted the remaining strength of six generations, swept across the Six Directions, and unified the Nine Provinces.

This is the great trend.

This world has long since had no distinction between Qin and Zhao; today's world is the world of Great Qin.

"Hahaha, worthy of the Majesty that Gao is familiar with."

Zhao Gao held the long sword and swung it toward Ying Zheng, laughing as he said, "But Your Majesty, you are too confident. Today, I will send you to meet the former kings of the Qin State."

Countless days and nights, countless years of suppressed hatred, how could it be resolved?

Ying Zheng was a qualified Emperor and a qualified leader.

Even as an enemy, it was very easy to be infected by his personal charisma.

But there was no way; from the moment Great Qin destroyed the Zhao State, they became eternal enemies.

Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Gao coldly, then slapped him.

He did not know how Zhao Gao had brought a weapon inside, but it did not matter; he was going to die anyway.

With one slap, he sent Zhao Gao crashing to the ground.

After eating the Flat Peach, Ying Zheng was the strongest person in the Great Qin World, bar none.

Zhao Gao had no power to resist this slap at all.

Zhao Gao had only one breath left.

Zhao Gao said in disbelief, "Your Majesty, you hid it so deeply."

At this final moment of his life, Zhao Gao could not help but recall his short life.

In his youth, he was a member of the Zhao State royalty, living in luxury and indulgence.

In one night, the Zhao State was destroyed, his family was ruined, and he was left wandering.

Later, carrying the national feud and family hatred, he entered the Xianyang Palace.

From a humble eunuch to a close minister of the Emperor.

He had put in too, too much effort.

Thinking back carefully, it seemed that the time spent by the Majesty's side was the happiest time.

Zhao Gao said with a final trace of unwillingness, "Your Majesty... if there is a next life, you be the ruler... I will be the subject... let there be no national feud or family hatred between us, and we will be the purest of ruler and subject..."

Before Zhao Gao could finish speaking, Ying Zheng slapped him again, killing him instantly.

"I am the Emperor of Great Qin, possessing the four seas; there are countless subjects who wish to serve me. What do you count for?"

Ying Zheng snorted coldly and said, "If there really is a next life, I will kill you again."

Ying Zheng ordered people to carry Zhao Gao's corpse away.

The next day, Ying Zheng began to lead the Great Qin officials to start the sacrificial rites.

Ying Zheng looked at the Great Qin officials present, as well as the Great Qin soldiers, and said, "I, Ying Zheng, have virtue exceeding the Three Sovereigns and merit surpassing the Five Emperors; I am the First Emperor."

"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long long live."

The ministers present, as well as the Great Qin soldiers, all looked with fanatical eyes at the figure dressed in the black imperial robe.

Virtue exceeding the Three Sovereigns, merit surpassing the Five Emperors—this was their King.

"Wind! Wind! Wind! Great Wind!"

The Great Qin Iron Cavalry shouted in unison, their fighting spirit soaring to the heavens.

This is a magnificent and heroic scene.

【Ding-dong! Group livestream started.】

At this moment, the group livestream started, and the members in the group immediately began to enter the livestream room.

"What is this? Is this the First Emperor?"

Su Xiaoxiao said in shock, "Virtue surpassing the Three Sovereigns, achievements exceeding the Five Emperors, sweeping across the Six Directions, unifying the world, the First Emperor of the Ages."

Without witnessing this scene with one's own eyes, it is impossible to describe this kind of shock.

One might ask, which person of Huaxia does not admire this Old Ancestor?

When later generations evaluate this period of history, the greatest regret has always been.

My charming Old Ancestor, why did he not achieve immortality?

My charming Old Ancestor only wanted to live forever, only wanted to eat a bite of Tang Monk Meat, what wrong did he commit?

Yue Buqun saw this scene and was also extremely shocked.

But very quickly, Yue Buqun began to feel that something was wrong.

"With such a grand display, is the First Emperor going to sacrifice to Heaven and Earth and join the Heavenly Court?"

Yue Buqun said with annoyance, "The First Emperor has ruined me."

Yue Buqun had originally wanted to be the first existence in the group to join the Heavenly Court.

He guessed that if he were the first to join the Heavenly Court, it would surely be very special.

Not to mention any other rewards, just being able to leave a good impression on the Heavenly Emperor would be enough.

Originally, Yue Buqun thought he would definitely be able to be the first existence to join the Heavenly Court.

But who would have thought that the First Emperor would backstab him now.

Now that this First Emperor is sacrificing to Heaven and Earth, isn't he just about to join the Heavenly Court?

Ying Zheng continued to say in a loud voice, "My Great Qin has exerted the remaining might of six generations, wielded the long whip to drive the world, swallowed the two Zhou and destroyed the Marquis, ascended to the supreme position to control the Six Directions, taken the land of the Hundred Yue in the south, and struck the Xiongnu in the north. Combining the Nine Provinces to rule the world."

As Ying Zheng's words fell, everyone present erupted into an unprecedented cheer.

"Qin!"

"Qin!"

From then on, on this piece of land, everyone had a common name, and that was Qin.

Merits of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, fame of the Xia, the later dynasties, and the Spring and Autumn period.

They are Qin People.

Ying Zheng looked at all his ministers and soldiers, and a sense of unprecedented confidence arose in him.

With the Great Qin Iron Cavalry, he will surely sweep away all enemies.

The Great Qin Empire will create eternal peace in his hands.
