The Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 71 Cover the sun, kneel down! (Please read)

Ying Zheng glanced at them and said, "Everyone, get up."

This was the first time that Yanri met Ying Zheng. This Crown Prince was now famous throughout the world and was a man favored by heaven known to everyone.

He only dared to look up when he stood up, then lowered his head, admiring in his heart that he was indeed extraordinary in appearance, with the bearing of a dragon and a phoenix.

Yanri stood aside with his head down, waiting for Ying Zheng to speak.

Ying Zheng looked at Yanri, who was dressed in the armored uniform of the Qin Dynasty with a mask covering his face.

Ying Zheng frowned and said in a cold voice: "Why, Mr. Yanri came to see me wearing a mask? What do you want to do?"

Yanri hurriedly explained: "I am rude. My status is special and the matter is of great importance. It is inconvenient to reveal my identity. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

“Take off the mask.”

"No one is allowed to hide in front of me."

Yanri secretly glanced at Ying Zheng's face. He had no expression on his face, but he was intimidating without being angry. After hesitating for a moment, he took off his mask.

He had an ordinary face and looked to be around thirty years old.

Ying Zheng knew very well that Yanri was proficient in illusion and disguise, and this face might not be real, but it was enough. He was not called here for this today, and Ying Zheng was not interested in knowing what Yanri looked like.

Ying Zheng nodded in satisfaction and said with a smile, "That's right. It's not proper to be sneaky in front of me."

"Mr. Yanri invited Gongshujia to Qin last time, which was a great achievement. I have already presented this achievement to my father for his commendation."

Yanri hurriedly replied: "Thank you, Your Highness. I have already received the reward."

Ying Zheng nodded: "The most urgent task now is to find the doctor Jinghu Medical Manor. This matter must be completed as soon as possible."

Yanri replied: "I obey your command. Luowang has done its best."

"Okay, I am still very satisfied with Mr. Yanri's ability."

"There is one more thing I need to tell Mr. Yanri."

"I have submitted a petition to my father, asking him to appoint Yan Jin as the commander of my crown prince's guards and confer the title of Duke and Doctor. Now that Yan Jin is receiving a salary from the court, it is naturally unsuitable for him to remain in Luowang. My father has also agreed. Effective immediately, Yan Jin will withdraw from Luowang and concentrate on working for me."

Yanri was stunned, with a thousand thoughts in his mind. Okay, okay, so this is how you play it, Yanjin, my dear. No wonder you are so different today. I thought you had the support of the prince. Now it seems that it is more than just the support of the prince, you have become the prince's pendant.

But this matter is of great importance. No one can resist Luowang, no one has ever been able to escape from Luowang, and no one will be allowed to escape. Luowang relies on high-pressure rule to maintain its existence. As long as a precedent is set, people's hearts will inevitably be moved. This is the foundation of Luowang's control over everyone, and it must not be shaken.

But Ying Zheng's words were very clear. This was a notice, and there was obviously no room for Yanri to refuse.

Yanri secretly hated him, mustered up his courage, looked up at Ying Zheng, gritted his teeth and advised in a deep voice:
"Your Highness, since ancient times, no one has ever been able to escape from Luowang. Luowang is so strictly managed that it can scare the six nations. If this precedent is set, then people within Luowang will be tempted, which will be detrimental to the great cause of Qin."

A smile appeared on Ying Zheng's expressionless face, and he asked in a gentle voice, "Then Mr. Yanri's intention is to ask the king to break his promise and withdraw his order?"

Ying Zheng then smiled and said:
"Or should we follow the rules of your Luowang and kill Yan Jin?"

"How about this, I ask my father to withdraw his order now, and then kill Yan Jin with one sword, isn't this better?"

Yanri hurriedly replied: "I dare not."

Ying Zheng's smile disappeared instantly, and he shouted:
"Your Majesty!"

Yanri quickly knelt down on the ground and dared not speak. Ying Zheng scolded him, "You bastard, Luowang is the Luowang of the Qin Dynasty, and you are a minister of the Qin Dynasty. Can the king's will not be more important than the rules of your Luowang?"

"Who do you think you are! Is the net yours or the Qin's?"

"You don't dare, I think you dare very much!"

Yanri kowtowed repeatedly and said, "The trap is of course the Great Qin's. The king's will is of course the most important. I deserve to die. Please forgive me, Your Highness. I deserve to die!"

"You deserve to die. If it happens again, you really deserve to die."

"Remember this, remember it firmly in your heart. Not to mention a small trap, everything in the world belongs to Daqin, and in Daqin, the king's will is everything!"

Yanri prostrated himself on the ground and replied hastily, "I understand. I will obey the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Ying Zheng then smiled and said gently, "Just remember it. Get up."

Yanri stood up tremblingly, hunching his body and not daring to stand up straight.

"Mr. Yanri has made great contributions to the Qin Empire. My father and I are aware of this. I originally wanted to reward Mr. Yanri as well, but I just heard that Mr. Yanri said that he has a special identity and is still very useful. It is not convenient for him to step forward now. So let's wait a little longer. When the great cause is accomplished in the future, we will reward him together."

"Take Yan Jin as an example, it is not a bad thing. Mr. Yan Ri's contribution is greater than Yan Jin, so his title in the future will naturally be higher than Yan Jin. My father and I have both considered these. If you work hard, even being a marquis is not a bad idea."

Yanri knelt down again hurriedly: "I thank the king for his kindness, and thank your highness for his kindness. I will be loyal to my country and die for it."

Ying Zheng used both kindness and force in a moody way, especially the killing intent just now, which frightened Yan Ri. Now he heard about the title of nobility, and he was very happy. He comforted himself that the Crown Prince was right, and Yan Jin's example was also a good thing. If he could be granted a title and inherit it, it would be much better than being a shameful killer forever. As for the unrest within Luowang, it would be fine if they were more strict, and it would not be a big deal.

Ying Zheng nodded in satisfaction and warned: "I have no doubt about Mr. Yanri's loyalty to the Qin Dynasty, but you must not disobey the king's orders a second time, otherwise the Qin law will show no mercy."

Yanri quickly replied: "I understand. I deserve to die. There will never be a next time."

"Okay, step back."

Yanri stepped back and left slowly. Ying Zheng suddenly spoke again, which frightened Yanri so much that he trembled and knelt down again in a hurry.

"You can escape the death penalty, but you can't escape the punishment of life. Go down and receive fifty strokes of the cane."

"Also, I am a person who believes in destiny. From now on, no matter how Yan Jin dies or becomes disabled, even if he chokes to death while drinking water, you will die with him."

Yanri replied loudly: "I obey your command! I will go and accept the punishment in a moment."

"I will definitely send someone to protect Commander Yan Jin and ensure that nothing goes wrong."

"Go."

After Yanri left, Yan Jin immediately knelt in front of Ying Zheng and cried, "My lord, your kindness is something I could never repay even if I die!" Then he kowtowed heavily to the ground.

Ying Zheng said gently, "Get up. I don't want you to die, not even once. You must live well and help me do things while you are alive, so that the world will become better and better, and you will also become better and better."

"When the world is at peace, you can enjoy the happiness of family life, surrounded by your children and grandchildren. You can tell them about the happy times we had as kings and ministers. You are not young anymore. Those two beauties are very pretty and pure. Treat them well and have more children quickly, or else your title will be passed on to someone else."

Yan Jin kowtowed heavily: "I obey your command!"
