Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 78: Intercepting Nian Duan and his disciple?

That night.

Zhao Gao led the assassins of Luowang to arrest all the officials from Nanjun and other places who were still in Xianyang.

"Did Lu Buwei ask you to approach Lady Mi and the eldest son?"

Zhao Gao put his hands behind his back, looked at the officials whose hands were tied, and asked with a smile.

"What is Lü Buwei?"

"I don't understand what you are saying!"

"I came to Xianyang to visit my relatives, I don't..."

The white-haired old man in the lead said.

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zhao Gao.

"You're still stubborn now?"

"Drag him away and give him fifty strokes of the cane!"

Zhao Gao said sternly.

"promise!"

Upon hearing this, Luowang Killer immediately dragged the white-haired old man away.

Soon, the old man's heart-wrenching wail could be heard outside the window.

Upon hearing this, most of the remaining officials lowered their heads.

This Zhao Gao looks very feminine and he doesn't look like a good person at first glance!
It’s usually not a big deal to offend a good person, but if you offend a villain, the consequences will definitely be terrible!
"Who are you?"

"Do you know who we are?"

"Xianyang is the capital of the Great Qin. How dare you commit a crime in Xianyang? Aren't you afraid..."

After more than ten breaths, a man in his twenties with a face full of flesh spoke loudly.

He doesn't look like an official at all, he looks like a butcher, and an unreasonable butcher at that.

He was interrupted by Zhao Gao before he could finish his words.

"Are you afraid?"

"I am following orders."

"What are your intentions in having an affair with Madam Mi?"

"rebel?"

Zhao Gao's voice and expression were both stern.

His voice was so sharp, as if it came from hell!
The officials whose hands and feet were tied were all shocked when they heard the word "rebellion".

What they have been doing recently can only be regarded as forming a clique for personal gain, how can it be considered "rebellion"?

"To me, whether one dies or all die, they are just numbers."

"But the king said that there may be good officials among you, but they are forced to do this because they are afraid of that guy Lu Buwei."

"Therefore, I will give you a chance."

"If anyone comes forward and reveals the mastermind behind this, I will spare their life and not implicate their family."

Zhao Gao placed his hand on the three-foot-long sword and said with a forced smile.

"Life or death, it's your choice!"

"I'll only give you half an incense stick of time."

Zhao Gao put down his sword and said coldly.

After saying this, he turned and went to the next room.

……

After a cup of tea.

Still no one stood up.

Zhao Gao frowned slightly when he saw this, then ordered them to be imprisoned separately and personally killed the two officials who had been clamoring.

He just said that these people were just numbers, which couldn't really be considered a threat. If no one came forward, he would have no choice but to torture them into confessing and then kill all these officials.

Whether you admit it or not, Lu Buwei must die!
……

After half a cup of tea.

Seeing that no one stood up, Zhao Gao gradually lost his patience.

Just when he was about to start a massacre, an official named Wang Zhan stood up.

"grown ups!"

"I said, I said everything!"

Wang Zhan swallowed his saliva and knelt down to beg for mercy.

"very good."

"He who knows the current affairs is a hero."

"Write down everything you know."

Zhao Gao smiled.

Then someone gave Wang Zhan paper and pen.

After seeing this scene, officials not far away raised their hands to indicate that they also said it.

Zhao Gao was delighted to see this and agreed to their request, asking them to write it down as well.

……

After half a stick of incense.

Zhao Gao received more than a dozen pieces of straw paper.

What they wrote was basically the same, saying that they came to Xianyang on the advice of Lu Buwei to get close to Mi Yu and Fusu.

After reading it, Zhao Gao looked satisfied.

Then these officials were taken to prison.

"Sir." "Didn't you just say that if we come forward and reveal the mastermind behind this, you'll spare our lives?"

Wang Zhan, the first one to stand up, asked boldly when he saw this.

"Yes."

"I just asked them to take you to the jail. I didn't say I was going to kill you."

Zhao Gao replied with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhan and others sighed helplessly.

They thought Zhao Gao would release them directly, or at most demote them to commoners!
Who knew he would be thrown into jail!

Looking at Zhao Gao walking further and further away, Wang Zhan and others were hesitant to speak.

Zhao Gao kills without blinking an eye. If they dare to say anything, they may not survive tonight!
……

Less than half an hour later.

When Zhao Gao met Ying Zheng, he handed the confessions of Wang Zhan and others to Ying Zheng with both hands.

"The mastermind behind this is indeed Lu Buwei!"

After reading it, Ying Zheng said coldly.

After saying this, he took out a bottle of poison from under the table.

"Take this bottle of poison and go to Luoyang."

"If he's willing to commit suicide, that's great. If not, please help him save his dignity!"

Ying Zheng ordered sternly.

"promise!"

Zhao Gao immediately accepted the order.

Then he took the poison with both hands, put it in his arms, and walked away.

……

the other side.

Xianyang, Xu Mansion.

Xu Lin had just finished dinner and was playing chess with Li Ji and Li Wu in the study.

Jingwei was watching the fight from the side. Xu Lin was fighting one against two and was not at all at a disadvantage.

"gentlemen."

"According to the timeline, Sister Jingwei will give birth next month at the latest. Should I go and find a doctor, just in case?"

After nearly losing to Xu Lin, Li Wu asked while stroking the black cat in her arms.

Although Jingwei's cultivation is very high, when it comes to giving birth to a child, one should be prepared for the worst!

Li Wu, Jing Niu and Li Ji have no experience in this!
"Need not."

"I've been reading medical books about childbirth lately, so I don't need a doctor."

Jingwei refused immediately.

She didn't want a man to deliver her baby.

"I think it's better to find a doctor."

"It's best to have a female doctor."

Lizzie suggested.

Upon hearing this, Xu Lin gently stroked Jingwei's legs and fell into deep thought.

After pondering for a moment, he turned his head and looked towards the State of Chu.

Jinghu Medical Village seems to be in the State of Chu?

Children are prone to illness, and there will be more and more women in the mansion in the future. If there is a doctor, it will be of great benefit and no harm!
With this in mind, Xu Lin gave the task of inviting Jinghu Medical Immortal Nian Duan to Li Wu.

Ms. Nian Duan is not only an excellent doctor, but also a woman, which makes her very suitable to deliver Jingwei!
"I don't care about the process, but remember it's an invitation, not a kidnapping!"

Xu Lin looked at Li Wu and reminded her seriously.

He doesn't want to force himself to do something difficult!
The first impression is very important. Forcing someone to do something will most likely leave a bad impression on them!
"I understand!"

Li Wu smiled charmingly and agreed happily.

Then she patted her increasingly heavy chest and said that she would never let Xu Lin down!
After Li Wu disappeared from sight, Xu Lin asked Jingwei to go back and rest.

"Husband."

"I heard that the Mirror Lake Medical Immortal Nian Duan has a strange personality and rarely comes down the mountain to treat people."

"Will she come to Xianyang?"

Li Ji asked with her bright eyes blinking.

Although she had never been to the State of Chu, she had heard of the medical master Nian Duan.

"It's man-made."

"I believe Li Wu is not just a pretty face."

Xu Lin replied with a smile.

"vase?"

Li Ji frowned slightly, confused.

"A vase means it's just pretty but lacks real skills."

Xu Lin explained.
