Chapter 271

Hearing these two names, Hu Hai completely gave up hope.

If it were only the Shadow Secret Guards, he could still quibble and let Ying Zheng punish Ying Ziyu for killing someone.

But it was also investigated by the Black Ice Terrace.

With the Black Ice Terrace involved, let alone Hu Hai, an Eighteenth Prince,

even the Crown Prince of Great Qin had no qualifications to deny it.

Only because the Black Ice Terrace had never made a mistake since its establishment!

Things investigated clearly by the Black Ice Terrace were authoritative in Great Qin, and no one could find the slightest problem.

Because they absolutely would not make the slightest mistake.

One hundred percent real!

"Someone, bring Hu Hai back to his manor."

"Without my permission, he cannot leave the manor."

"Take away all these officials who stood out and deal with them for treason."

"Arrest Zhao Gao's nine generations and behead them in public!"

Ying Zheng coldly issued one order after another.

A few simple sentences meant that blood and wind were mixed behind them.

"Your Majesty, spare my life!"

The officials who stood out knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Treason, according to Great Qin laws, not only required exterminating three generations but also being torn apart by five oxen.

Prince Fusu, seeing this, also stood out and said: "Your Majesty, is this too cruel?"

"Only Zhao Gao committed treason; these officials didn't know about it."

"Your subordinate thinks they shouldn't be punished with such a heavy crime."

He had always been objective.

As long as he felt that the matter didn't conform to Confucian thought, he would stand out and speak.

Regardless of whether the other party was a friend or an enemy.

The officials standing on Prince Fusu's side shook their heads and sighed.

They supported Prince Fusu mainly because he wasn't as cruel as Ying Zheng.

But now, he was a bit too kind.

Helping opponents out time and again wasn't a very good thing.

Everyone decided to persuade Prince Fusu well after the court session.

"Lock the eldest Prince in his manor as well."

"Let him familiarize himself well with our Great Qin laws."

Ying Zheng said with a cold face, showing no mercy.

If it were before, when Ying Ziyu hadn't been discovered to be so excellent,

Ying Zheng would have considered Prince Fusu's face and wouldn't have let him lose too much face in front of the officials, after all, that wasn't conducive to Prince Fusu managing them.

Now, with Ying Ziyu as a pearl before him, Ying Zheng naturally wouldn't indulge Prince Fusu anymore.

It was time to let Prince Fusu understand well what Great Qin laws were.

"Obey!"

The soldiers said in unison.

Then they walked into the palace and took everyone away.

"In addition, pass my order: command the Ninth Prince, Ying Ziyu, to act as the supervising official for the execution."

"Execute it at noon tomorrow!"

Ying Zheng continued.

With this order, he wanted to help Ying Ziyu establish prestige.

"Your subordinate obeys the decree!"

Ying Ziyu bowed and accepted the order.

Prince Fusu, seeing this, didn't resist either, and was obediently taken back to his manor by the soldiers.

He started thinking about how he could save more people from Ying Ziyu's hands.

The officials supporting Prince Fusu felt their hearts skip a beat.

This signal from His Majesty was not good news.

Li Si, who had been silent, narrowed his eyes slightly.

He knew it was time for him to place his bet.

"Court dismissed!"

Ying Zheng finished speaking and stood up to leave directly.

Ying Ziyu and the civil and military officials also left the court one after another.

Meng Yi led the soldiers to start arresting criminals in Xianyang City.

Watching this scene, there was not the slightest pity in Ying Ziyu's heart.

It was like this at any time: the law of the jungle!

When you are not strong enough, but have ambitions that don't match, you often bring huge disasters to yourself and those around you.

Not long after Ying Ziyu returned to his manor, Jiang Yuyan and the Yue Maiden returned in a hurry.

"What happened?"

Ying Ziyu saw that Jiang Yuyan's situation seemed a bit wrong.

He rushed over immediately, grabbed Jiang Yuyan's arm, and started to investigate.

Ying Ziyu discovered that the internal energy in Jiang Yuyan's body was very quiet, but it contained a very violent energy that was silently destroying Jiang Yuyan's body.

"Master, I am fine!"

Jiang Yuyan shook her head and said.

After coming out of the ruins, she didn't stop for a moment and rushed back directly.

On the way back, she felt an extra strand of internal energy appear in her body for no reason.

Soon, the two strands of internal energy in her body started fighting.

This made Jiang Yuyan, who had gained insights from the Emperor's Ascension Map and felt very comfortable, feel very uncomfortable.

She desperately suppressed all of this.

She persisted until now, only then returning to Ying Ziyu's manor.

"Ninth Prince, the Saintess she…"

Before the Yue Maiden could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Jiang Yuyan.

"Master, I have no major problems. Look, am I not very well?"

Jiang Yuyan forced herself to smile and said.

She was in great pain at this moment, and her body was about to reach its limit.

"Still forcing it!"

"If you keep forcing it,"

"your cultivation will be ruined."

"Then I'll see if you can still be this Saintess."

"Whether you can still take your revenge."

As he spoke, Ying Ziyu mobilized the internal energy in his body and slowly input it into Jiang Yuyan's body.

Helping Jiang Yuyan calm down the violent power hidden under her internal energy.

"Sit in meditation and regulate your breathing!"

"Let the two strands of internal energy fuse together."

Ying Ziyu said immediately.

Jiang Yuyan didn't hesitate at all after hearing this, sitting in meditation directly.

Ying Ziyu stretched out his finger and pointed straight at the center of Jiang Yuyan's eyebrows.

Boom!

The internal energy in Jiang Yuyan's body started to boil.
