Chapter 155

Ying Zheng had asked Prince Fusu the same question.

Prince Fusu’s answer was that an organization like the Net should be abolished, as it was useless.

Just from the answers of Ying Ying Ziyu and Prince Fusu, it could be seen that Prince Fusu was indeed not as good as Ying Ying Ziyu.

"The Net only knows its leader and only obeys the leader’s orders."

Ying Ying Ziyu’s words stopped abruptly here.

There was no need to continue with the rest; he had already expressed what he wanted to express.

Ying Zheng’s gaze turned cold, and his eyes became sharp.

He had noticed this problem long ago.

The reason he had not taken action to manage it was because he had enough confidence.

Even if the Net truly became Zhao Gao’s word alone, Ying Zheng had the confidence to make the Net become Great Qin’s Net again.

Ying Zheng never expected that Ying Ying Ziyu would actually notice this problem.

"Ying Ziyu, you are very good."

"Your answers have never disappointed me."

Ying Zheng’s tone was very flat.

It made people unable to tell what his mood was at this moment.

It could be said that Ying Zheng’s performance at this moment was completely consistent with an Emperor.

As an Emperor, one should not show joy or anger in one’s expression.

One must absolutely not let anyone see what one’s mood is at this moment.

"What do you think of Zhao Gao?"

Ying Zheng asked another question.

He wanted to ask all the questions he had in his heart today.

For a period of time, he had been examining whether Ying Ying Ziyu had the qualifications to become the heir.

Today was officially letting Ying Ying Ziyu participate in deeper-level matters.

"Just a fool with ambition."

"Thinking he is Hu Hai’s teacher, he thinks of supporting Hu Hai to ascend the throne."

"To let his power reach a new peak."

Ying Ying Ziyu did not avoid anything when he said these words.

He was just answering Ying Zheng’s question.

Ying Zheng nodded; don't look at him usually saying nothing.

In fact, he knew the situation of Zhao Gao and the others clearly.

He also knew everything they had done.

He had always kept these things in his heart; the reason he didn't say them was because he was waiting for the right opportunity to bring them out.

The same thing, brought out at different times, has different effects.

As an Emperor, Ying Zheng knew how to handle these things well.

"You see things very clearly."

"Prince Fusu is not as good as you!"

Ying Zheng gave the conclusion calmly.

Subsequently, Ying Ying Ziyu and Ying Zheng chatted for a while, and then Ying Ying Ziyu walked out of the study.

"Greetings, Ninth Prince!"

Ying Ying Ziyu had not walked a few steps when he saw Zhao Gao coming toward him.

He did not expect that they had just been talking about Zhao Gao, and he would run into him as soon as he came out.

"How did Minister Zhao lose his arm?"

Ying Ying Ziyu looked at Zhao Gao’s empty arm and asked with a smile, knowing the answer.

Upon hearing this, a flash of displeasure and ruthlessness flashed in Zhao Gao’s eyes.

However, he covered it up well and quickly returned to normal.

Now he simply did not have the qualifications to confront Ying Ying Ziyu, so he could only endure it.

"Thank you, Ninth Prince, for your concern."

"This arm of mine was sacrificed for Great Qin."

Zhao Gao said, pulling a big tiger skin for himself.

Ying Ying Ziyu sneered and said: "Minister Zhao, you misunderstood; I am not concerned about you, I just feel that since you have already lost one arm."

"A single arm looks a bit of an eyesore, it would be better to cut it off too, it would look better."

As he spoke, Ying Ying Ziyu’s massive internal energy as a Land Immortal enveloped Zhao Gao.

Ying Ying Ziyu did not use his full strength.

He only called upon the internal energy of the Land Immortal · Mortal Realm.

Such strength was completely enough to deal with Zhao Gao.

Zhao Gao immediately felt several ten-thousand-ton mountains pressing on his body, and he felt the pressure increase sharply, and sweat covered his forehead in an instant.

"What does the Ninth Prince mean by this? I have been working wholeheartedly for my Great Qin."

"This arm was also lost for Great Qin; does the Ninth Prince want to kill me in public?"

Zhao Gao gritted his teeth, supporting his body to keep from collapsing directly to the ground.

He never expected that Ying Ying Ziyu would actually take action.

This was in front of the Imperial Study.

This was the Xianyang Palace.

How did he dare?

Even if he was the Ninth Prince of Great Qin, he was a Land Immortal.

He was deeply favored by His Majesty the Emperor.

Was he not afraid of being blamed by His Majesty for this matter?

What made Zhao Gao most helpless was the gap in strength and realm between the two.

Ying Ying Ziyu’s strength made Zhao Gao feel incomparably desperate.

He was only half a step away from being a Land Immortal, but it was this half step that was like a chasm; facing the pressure of Ying Ying Ziyu, a Land Immortal, Zhao Gao simply had no way to resist at all.

"Minister Zhao is truly loyal to the monarch and loves the country, thinking wholeheartedly for my Great Qin."

"But how did I hear that this arm of yours was broken by the leader of the Yin-Yang School, Eastern Sovereign, seemingly to find a concubine for my foolish younger brother, Hu Hai."

"Previously, you also proposed to find a concubine for Hu Hai from the Flower-Moving Palace."

"Minister Zhao, such behavior of yours truly loses all the face of my Great Qin."

"His Majesty does not teach you a lesson, but as the Ninth Prince of Great Qin, I will not let you ruin the reputation of Great Qin like this."

Ying Ying Ziyu said coldly and took a step forward.

The aura on his body erupted in an instant, and terrifying internal energy aura surrounded him.

In an instant, a wild wind blew with the two of them as the center.

The guards guarding the Imperial Study saw this and hurriedly reported the situation to Ying Zheng, who was handling the memorials.

"I know, go down!"

Ying Zheng did not even raise his head, and his tone was very flat.

Ying Zheng did not care at all about Ying Ying Ziyu wanting to deal with Zhao Gao.

In Ying Zheng’s eyes, Zhao Gao was just a servant.

He was once a bit useful, but now Zhao Gao was becoming less and less honest.

Naturally, someone needed to knock him down a peg.

Ying Zheng did not take action to knock him down personally because in his heart, Zhao Gao was no longer as heavily used as before.

This was Ying Zheng, a ruthless Emperor.

He could tolerate Zhao Gao having ambition, and he could also tolerate Zhao Gao doing some things in private.

However, as an Emperor, what Ying Zheng hated most was disobedience.

Zhao Gao’s various recent actions had all touched this red line of Ying Zheng’s.

If it weren't for the fact that he hadn't found a suitable candidate, Ying Zheng would have long replaced Zhao Gao from the position of leader of the Net.
