Through the Qin Dynasty, I am the first emperor

Chapter 41 Into the Heavenly Prison

"The young general doesn't dare, please ask the prime minister to investigate clearly. If the prime minister has doubts, he can send someone to the son's mansion to verify what the young general said." Zhu Da saw that Li Si was angry, and his heart was a little hairy, and he said anxiously.

"Hmph, there's no need to send anyone. The truth will go with you to find out. If you lie at all, the truth will tear you apart." Li Si thought about it and decided that it would be better to go there in person.There is no single list for a small partial general who dares to deceive him, the current prime minister.It's just that he really couldn't understand how His Majesty would go to his grandson's mansion.

"The young general made half a false statement, and he should apologize with death, and the old prime minister will not do anything." Zhu Dachang was questioned again and again, and he was also a little angry in his heart, and his tone was very decisive.

"Lead the way ahead!" Seeing Zhu Dachang's statement, Li Si couldn't help but nodded in appreciation.His voice was also a little soft, but he was calculating all kinds of possibilities in his heart.

"Yes." Without saying a word, Zhu Dachang walked out first, left the prime minister's mansion, and went straight to Li Xu's mansion.

Li Si followed closely behind him, followed by hundreds of officials, and two rows of city guards maintained the order of the riots, guarding both sides of the street.

A group of people came to Li Xu's garden mighty and mightily. When they saw Ying Zheng in the pavilion, many officials in the court showed horror on their faces.

Li Si was also very terrified. When he saw his grandson Li Xu kneeling outside the pavilion, bound by five flowers, Li Si cried out inwardly, and roughly guessed the reason why His Majesty was here.

"Your Majesty, may your majesty rule the world and dominate the universe. The Great Qin will be immortal forever, and the sun and the moon will shine together." Under the leadership of Li Si and Sangong Jiuqing, the officials bowed respectfully.

"Li Si." There was no expression on Ying Zheng's face, making it impossible to see his thoughts and emotions.

"The minister is here." Li Si's face was very ugly, he gave his grandson who was kneeling not far away, and looked at his grandson with a look of pleading for help. Although he felt sorry for him, but His Majesty, he dared not do anything wrong.

"Who is this person?" Ying Zheng looked at Li Si calmly and asked scoldingly.

"Report to Your Majesty, this is Li Si's young grandson, Li Xu." Li Si lowered his head, not daring to look Ying Zheng directly in the eyes, ashamed as a child who did something wrong.

"Oh? Is it really your grandson?" Ying Zheng seemed to be in disbelief.

"Report to Your Majesty, if it's true, I dare not lie to Your Majesty." Li Si sighed. He who had just regained his youth seemed to have aged many years.

"Then do you know what your precious grandson is doing outside?" Ying Zheng tapped his fingers lightly on the table, making crisp tapping sounds.

"I...I don't know." Li Si answered boldly.

"Oh? Really don't know?" Ying Zheng asked again with a hint of anger finally showing on his face.

"I really don't know what outrageous things this evil animal has done outside to make His Majesty furious." Li Si said with a look of ignorance, and was extremely sad.

"Since that's the case, Prime Minister Li, you wrote the laws of the Great Qin Dynasty with your own hands. How should murder be dealt with according to the law?" Ying Zheng laughed angrily, does this Li Si really think he is a fool?As the current prime minister, would you not know what your grandson has done?Without his protection, ten lives would not be enough for Li Xu's crimes.

"According to the laws of Great Qin, whoever kills shall pay with his life." Seeing that Ying Zheng was really angry, Li Si's heart began to fluctuate.

"What about covering up?" Ying Zheng asked again.

"Protect the prisoner and treat him as the same crime." Hearing these words, Li Si immediately felt that a catastrophe was imminent, but he didn't dare not answer His Majesty's question.

"Okay! If that's the case, Li Si, are you convicted?" Ying Zheng stood up abruptly, patted the case, and shouted loudly.

"Your Majesty is guilty, please punish me." Li Si was so frightened by Ying Zheng that he knelt down and confessed his mistake.

"Hmph, your precious grandson, who disregards human life, bullies the market, and is notorious in Xianyang City. You actually said to me that you don't know anything? How do you do this as a prime minister? How can you help me when you can't even control your own grandson? Govern the world?" Although Ying Zheng disdains to embarrass a kid, the law is ruthless, if he is left alone, it will cause chaos in the world.

"My grandson is young and ignorant, please give me a lighter punishment. All mistakes are Li Si's fault alone, and Li Si is willing to obey the law." Li Si continued to excuse his grandson, trying to save his life, regardless of his own Comfort, begged bitterly.

"You can't protect yourself, and you still want to intercede for your grandson?" Ying Zheng frowned and said indifferently.

"Your Majesty, I follow His Majesty on the saddle and horse. There is no merit but hard work. I am willing to die, and I beg Your Majesty to let your grandson go!" Li Si climbed up to Ying Zheng with a look of grief on his face, begging.

"Come here, send Li Si and Li Xu to the prison to await trial." Ying Zheng turned around and said indifferently.

Four soldiers came over, supported Li Si and Li Xu respectively, and dragged them outside.

"Your Majesty, I beg you, let your young grandson go! Your Majesty's kindness is due to the death of my minister Li Siwan." Although Li Si was being held up, he still begged loudly.

Ying Zheng didn't turn around, but said very flatly; "Your grandson is a grandson, isn't someone else's grandson a grandson?"

Knowing that Li Si’s voice had completely disappeared, Ying Zheng turned around. He looked at the officials below and said meaningfully; , will never be tolerated. It does not matter whether you are the royal family or nobles, or the three princes and nine ministers, you will be killed without mercy."

"Your Majesty is wise." Baiguan said coldly when they heard Yingzheng's murderous words.

After Ying Zheng finished speaking, he disappeared into the garden, leaving only a group of officials looking at each other, at a loss.

Xiang Liang also stood there dumbfounded, not recovering for a long time.Is this really the tyrant?Xiang Liang shook his head and smiled wryly.

All the officials left one after another, Xiang Liang opened the trap and rescued Xiang Yu.The two uncles and nephews had a long talk by candlelight late at night, and left Xianyang at dawn the next day, went straight to Huiji County, and returned to their hometown.

At this time, Ying Zheng returned to Qinhuang Palace and Chaotian Palace very distressed. He really couldn't decide how to deal with Li Si and Li Xu for a while.

Ying Zheng's love for protecting the calf is understandable, but at Li Si's level, Ying Zheng is really annoyed.He only wanted to punish Li Si slightly, but didn't want to kill him.After all, Li Si is a rare talent.

But for Li Xu, if he was killed, Li Si might be jealous.Although Li Si didn't dare to criticize himself, there would inevitably be a shadow in his heart, which cut off the relationship between the monarch and his ministers.

If you don't kill, how can you serve the world?Ying Zheng is now caught in a dilemma. He has been thinking hard all night, but he has not found a solution that is the best of both worlds, which makes him a headache.

[I didn’t go to bed until [-] o’clock this morning, and got up at [-] o’clock. After a busy day, I went to bed, and I just changed it.Starting from next week, there will be five shifts every day, and I will fulfill my promise. Now that I have said it, I will do my best to do it! 〕
