Unparalleled Evildoer

Chapter 170 Who will listen to the unpleasant words?
Ying Zheng said "Oh", quite surprised, looked at Fusu, and said: "You can ask!"

Fusu stood with his hands behind his back, a look of surprise flashing across his face, and then he smiled calmly and said, "I wonder what you want to ask, sir?"

Wuzhan bowed and said, "I would like to ask the eldest prince, how did you determine that night that the ship was carrying a treasure chest?"

Fusu's eyes turned and he replied, "The box is very heavy. It takes four people to move it. If it's not jewels, what else could it contain? Moreover, I heard their conversation and it is definitely a treasure brought from Mount Li."

Wuzhan smiled slightly and said, "That is to say, the eldest prince did not see what was in the box, and he inferred it based on the weight and the conversation with the disciples of the Immortal Dao Academy?"

Yang Ruihe shouted, "How dare you doubt the eldest prince's statement!"

Wuzhan said coldly: "This humble minister has obtained the permission of His Majesty. The eldest prince's oral statement is inaccurate. This humble minister needs to ask for clarification. This has nothing to do with courage."

Ying Zheng said unhappily: "Why can't the prince be suspicious? Everyone present should be suspected. Wei Wei, this is your fault!"

Fusu said: "If they were not afraid that I would leak the information, why would they imprison me and want to kill me?"

Wuzhan said calmly, "I am also puzzled. The prince is really a man of high taste. Seven days ago, he and I just parted at Qingya Pavilion, and then he braved the rain to swim in the Wei River in the middle of the night. The eyesight and hearing of the disciples from the Immortal Dao Academy are really amazing. They captured the eldest prince before he even got close to them and imprisoned him!"

Fusu often met Wuzhan and they had a close relationship. The ministers knew about this and Wuzhan asked if Fusu's behavior was indeed suspicious.

Fusu's thoughts raced, and hesitantly said, "It was because it was raining that night that I felt depressed and tired. I thought that I had always cruised on the Wei River on moonlit nights before, but I had never seen the scenery on a rainy night. So I took a boat in the middle of the night to relax. Although it was a rainy night, when I found the building ship, the lights on it were very bright. I was shocked and suspected that there must be something wrong with moving things overnight. If I had expected that they would dare to imprison me, I should have ordered the guards to report it, so that they would not escape and I would not have nearly lost my life."

Wuzhe looked at Fusu with clear eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he sighed softly: "I remembered it wrong, it was a sunny night, and it didn't rain. The eldest prince spoke very fluently, and he said so much before I finished asking."

Upon hearing this, Fusu trembled all over and suddenly shouted loudly: "You are so insidious, today I will kill you, the traitor!" He flew up and slapped Wuzhan with one palm.

Although he was very close, Miaoxin was well prepared. A blue light flashed, and with a 'bang', Fusu vomited blood and was instantly knocked several feet away, falling heavily in front of the Royal Guards. Before the dumbfounded people could come to their senses, he clenched his teeth, covered his chest, and flew into the crowd in the direction of the closing door.

It was too sudden and the action was too fast. Before Wuzhan's words were still in everyone's ears, Fusu was about to escape. Daoxuan was the first to react. He shouted, "Where are you escaping!... Scatter!" He flew up and chased after Fusu.

Before the soldiers dispersed, Fusu entered the crowd. Daoxuan followed closely behind him with a sharp gaze. Wherever he went, people fell to the ground and screamed in pain. But in the blink of an eye, Fusu disappeared. Daoxuan continued to chase him for more than ten feet, but still couldn't find him. At this moment, he heard a soldier shouting in the distance: "He's here!"

Daoxuan and others went in the direction of the sound. The soldiers hurriedly made way to both sides, revealing an open space of more than ten feet wide. Fusu fell on his back with a long sword stuck in his chest. He was staring with blood oozing from his mouth. He was already dead.

Daoxuan walked up to him and asked angrily, "Who killed him?" Seeing that the soldiers around him were scared and retreated, not daring to answer, he knew that he must have been killed by a master hidden in the crowd. No matter how he asked, he could not get any information. He possessed his body and tore off the dead man's mask, then walked back. When the ministers saw him, they cried out in shock, it turned out that this 'Fusu' was a fake, and was indistinguishable from the real person.

Daoxuan came to Wuzhan with a face full of shame and raised his voice, "Your Majesty, the impostor came with such a face to pretend to be the eldest prince and framed Xiandaoyuan. If it weren't for Lord Wuzhan's keen observation, none of us would have thought that I wanted to capture him and ask him about the whereabouts of the eldest prince, but I was killed by the assassin hidden in the crowd. To ensure your majesty's safety, please return to the palace to rest. Allow me to take the disciples of Xiandaoyuan to check everyone here one by one and find out the culprit!" As he said that, he swept a murderous look at Yao Jia and others.

Ying Zheng's surprise had been replaced by joy. Since he was impersonating to deceive, Xu Shi's escape was not credible. As long as Xu Shi could come back, his great cause could still be realized. He said loudly, "With the protection of the Imperial Guards, nothing will happen. I'm here, watching you investigate. You must find out the culprit and find out the whereabouts of Fusu!" At this moment, a shout came from a distance, "Father, your son is late to protect you!"

Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw Fusu and a few others running towards them on horseback. A moment later, they were in front of them and hurriedly dismounted. Everyone thought to themselves, "I wonder if this Fusu is real or fake." Then they looked to his side and exclaimed in surprise again, how come another 'Fusu' has appeared?

Fusu ran to Ying Zheng, knelt on the ground with a thump, and said hurriedly: "Father, this is a conspiracy designed by them to rebel here. If it weren't for Wuzhan's plan to save me, I would have been secretly killed by them today!" Suddenly pointing at Yao Jia, who looked as pale as death, "It was this traitor who colluded with the remnants of the restoration, framed Xiandaoyuan, and imprisoned me!"

After hearing this, everyone was in an uproar. The first "Fusu" came back to frame Xiandaoyuan, and this Fusu came back to report Yao Jia. Although the two people reported different objects, the process was extremely similar. I wonder if this is another false accusation. Moreover, the two Fusu stood side by side, making it difficult to tell the difference. It is very confusing and quite funny.

Ying Zheng did not question Yao Jia immediately, but pointed at the two Wuzhan and asked, "Who among you is Wuzhan?"

Wuzhan said, "Jin Xingzi, why don't you take off your mask quickly and dispel His Majesty's doubts."

Jin Xingzi chuckled and said, "I just want to 'expose it in person' so that everyone will be convinced. This will let Your Majesty see my true face!" After saying that, he took off his mask to reveal his smiling green face, and everyone was amazed again.

Ying Zheng asked: "Why did he pretend to be you? Who is this Fusu? Explain the whole story."

Wuzhan coughed lightly and said slowly: "Your Majesty, don't worry. He is sure that it is the eldest prince. The whole thing happened like this. After I parted with the eldest prince that night, I didn't see him for several days. Due to the urgency of the case recently, I didn't pay attention to him. Until the night before last, a woman in green broke into my mansion at night and said that the eldest prince was in their hands and I could only see him if I went alone. I had guessed her purpose at that time. Because I discovered their clues, she wanted to get rid of me. In order to save the eldest prince, I took advantage of her trick and was blindfolded by her and taken to a hidden cell outside the city. As expected, I saw the eldest prince and was imprisoned at the same time. The group wanted to use Hua Qingyue's disguise technique to replace me, so they can act according to their plan today. I reminded them at that time that if Without the tiger talisman and the official seal, Lord Meng would definitely find out. They believed it and ordered Zhu Baichuan, who was pretending to be me, to go back and get them. Before I left, I had instructed that someone would come back to pretend to be me to get the tiger talisman and the official seal. Therefore, when Zhu Baichuan arrived at my residence, he was quickly eliminated. Jin Xingzi took off the mask made by Hua Qingyue and put it on his face. He followed the green-clothed woman waiting outside the door back to the prison cell in Du County. Jin Xingzi stayed in the prison cell for a while on the pretext of imitating me. We took advantage of this time to make a switch. After that, I walked out of the prison cell and saw the group of rebels. I was afraid of alerting them and harming the eldest prince, so I did not report it directly to His Majesty, but only told Lord Meng that when the group of rebels gathered here today, we would work together with Jin Xingzi to rescue the eldest prince, and I would..."

"No need to continue. I am deeply impressed by your wisdom and composure. After all my calculations, I still underestimated you!" Yao Jia interrupted Wuzhan and said grimly.

Ying Zheng was furious and said, "Yao Jia, I have treated you well, how could you imprison the eldest prince and frame the Xiandao Academy!"

Yao Jiachen laughed bitterly and said, "Haha, it is because your majesty has been so kind to me that I have put my life and death aside!" He continued, "Your majesty, in order to unify China and get rid of the suffering of war as soon as possible, discussed with us old ministers overnight and humbly sought advice. Although I was exhausted at that time, my heart was filled with warmth. I racked my brains to share your worries. No matter what kind of difficult difficulties we encountered, we could overcome them. Now the six states in Shandong have all returned to Qin. Your majesty should have guarded this land, blessed the world, let the people live and work in peace, built the Great Wall to resist foreign enemies, repaired canals, A straight road facilitates transportation, although it is laborious, it is a long-term plan. However, Your Majesty listened to Xu Shi and built the Immortal Palace, which cost a lot of money and wasted the people's efforts. Your Majesty, have you ever thought that since ancient times, no one has ever been able to live forever? Those who have become gods and immortals are just legends. Who has ever seen it with their own eyes? Your Majesty, look at these terracotta warriors again. They are just fired porcelain. Can they move even a little bit, let alone put them on the battlefield to kill the enemy? Xu Shi must know that he can no longer deceive you today, and he escaped with a huge fortune. Can't Your Majesty wake up now?"

After hearing this, everyone was saddened, some even shed tears. The golden crow set in the west, a cool breeze swept across, and the entire valley was silent. Even the people from the Immortal Dao Academy were not in a position to shout angrily at this time.

Ying Zheng was silent for a long while, then said in a deep voice: "I don't need you to teach me, you don't understand my intentions. Xia, Shang, Zhou, which dynasty didn't have great order and people's happiness in the beginning, but eventually fell apart and fell to pieces. Why is that? All the holy monarchs and good ministers have returned to the earth, the people are lazy and the officials are mediocre, and the rule can't last more than three generations. Without a long-lived body, how can we talk about the great cause of thousands of years? Everything will be in vain. The morning fungus does not know the new moon and full moon, and the cicada does not know the spring and autumn. You have not seen it, so how can you say it doesn't exist? How can I be satisfied with pacifying the six countries? This world is more than just the territory of China. The Huns almost annexed half of my Great Qin, and the borders were constantly invaded. 300,000 soldiers were restrained by them. The remnants of the restoration were not dead, but if we are complacent and don't make progress, how long can this territory be defended? I don't want to become Tang and King Wu, who will be passed down through the ages. I want to be the only emperor under the sky who will reign for thousands of years!" His voice was clear and echoed in the valley for a long time.

"Your Majesty has far-sightedness and great talent. Li Si is willing to follow you until death!" After saying this, he knelt on the ground. Seeing this, all the ministers knelt down and echoed him.

Yao Jia laughed wildly and said, "When you saw us fighting, you didn't even dare to fart. Now that you see that I am doomed, you flatter Your Majesty without knowing right from wrong. Li Si, Li Si, how did you become like this?"

Li Si was embarrassed when he heard this. He turned around and shouted, "You disobeyed His Majesty, imprisoned the prince, colluded with the remnants of the restoration, and plotted to frame the Xiandao Academy. What qualifications do you have to comment on me!"

Yao Jia said sternly: "Even if I die and live in infamy for eternity, I will not watch Your Majesty go astray!" Suddenly he shouted loudly: "What are you waiting for? Why don't you do it!"
