Chapter 213 Crack [First update, please subscribe]

Hearing Chen Zheng's sneer, Meng Yi's mind came to his senses. He subconsciously glanced at Han Fei, who was following Chen Zheng, with frequent glances.

Han Fei lowered his head and looked helpless.

Seeing Han Fei's appearance, Meng Yi understood immediately.

Han Fei still told Chen Zheng everything, and Chen Zheng came here precisely for this matter.

He also lowered his head.

Seeing the two people's reactions, Chen Zheng's expression softened a lot. He patted their shoulders and said with a smile: "Okay, no need to look like this, it's just a small matter."

He laughed self-deprecatingly: "Since your Majesty has unified the world, your disputes with me are not just about these two things."

"Let's go."

Chen Zheng tidied his clothes and walked towards Xianyang Palace with a calm expression.

Ying Zheng nodded slightly: "Oh?"

Is there anything worthy of Chen Zheng's special trip?

No matter how much he didn't like Chen Zheng's temperament, he would still listen if it was about business. After all, Chen Zheng was still the left prime minister.

He squinted his eyes, thinking about the purpose of Chen Zheng's visit this time.

Chen Zheng, who was sitting next to them, saw Zhao Gao at the first sight when he came in. He was immediately filled with anger, but he also knew that if he directly spoke to Ying Zheng in a questioning tone, then he The desired results are absolutely unattainable.

The boy outside the main hall came in a hurry and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Chen, the internal officials, and the minister are here."

Is there something poking at Prime Minister Chen's lungs again?

Thinking like this, Ying Zheng subconsciously looked at the expressions of "Meng Yi" and "Han Fei" who were sitting next to them. He saw that both of them looked a little "guilty". He raised his eyebrows and looked out of the corner of his eyes. He looked at Zhao Gao, who was standing beside him.

So when Ying Zheng heard the news that Chen Zheng had entered the palace, he paused slightly, and then seemed to react to something.

Could it be that Chen came here just because of Zhao Gao's affairs?

Because of this, he was forcibly controlling the anger in his heart.

His expression changed slightly, with a hint of suspicion on his face, Chen Zheng, Meng Yi, Han Fei?

Why did these three people come together?

Dang even nodded and said, "Invite them in."

Meng Yi and Han Fei didn't know what to say or how to say it. After all, they were not the "protagonists" this time.

What does Chen Zheng want to do?

Entering the palace in a hurry at this time even broke his own consistent principles, so there must be something important.

He didn't understand, but he sat there waiting for Chen Zheng's arrival.

However, no one from the Chen family has ever used this "privilege", and neither has Chen Zheng. In the past, no matter how anxious he was, he would only report it first and get permission before entering the palace.

When Chen Zheng and others walked in, they saw this scene. After seeing the ceremony, the four of them sat there without anyone saying anything.

At this time, Ying Zheng also noticed the difference in the atmosphere, and he began to think about the events of these days.

He has a badge given by Ying Zheng and can enter and leave the palace at will.

Otherwise it would absolutely not be the case.

Ying Zheng was a little confused.

This is Chen Zheng's own restriction on himself.

He was just a eunuch who committed some minor crimes. After Meng Yi impeached him, he had already forgiven Zhao Gao's crimes. Could it be that Chen Zheng still had a hand in it?

Thinking of this, he felt a little unhappy subconsciously.

As a result, the atmosphere present became more dignified and tense.

After a while, Chen Zheng spoke first. He still followed "Chen Zan's" advice, so when talking to Ying Zheng, he used a more "tactful" tone.

"Your Majesty, do you still remember King Huiwen?"

He let out a long sigh, with some emotion and nostalgia in his eyes: "A few days ago, in January, I sent my great-uncle's body back to Guandu, where he was buried in the ancestral grave. Later, he worshiped in the ancestral hall and met his ancestors. King An’s spiritual status was filled with emotions for a moment.”

Ying Zheng felt relieved after listening to what Chen Zheng said. He was wondering, could he have guessed wrong?

Didn't Chen Zheng come here because of Zhao Gao's affairs?

He nodded slightly, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyebrows: "How can I not remember?"

"If it were not for the ancestors of the Qin Kingdom, it would still be difficult for me to rule the world."

Chen Zheng smiled and just continued: "Yes, it is not easy to get the world of Qin. It is the efforts of the ancestors of the past kings, your majesty, and the sages of the past generations that finally led to the "unified Qin State" today." , is the supreme glory.”

He smiled and continued: "When I came back, I went to Xianyang Academy again. At this time, the teaching materials in the academy were different from before."

Chen Zheng's words aroused Ying Zheng's memories. He also studied in the Academy when he was young, and he was a little curious: "Oh? The things learned in the Academy are different?"

"What have you changed?"

Chen Zheng pointed at Han Fei teasingly and said: "The rest are not different, they are just patchwork, but there is an extra "course", which is "Qin Law", the purpose is to cultivate enough "officials" "To stabilize the current world situation."

He said with emotion: "Although the world is unified now, the Qin Law is the foundation of the country. If you want to go to a local place to serve as an official or a county guard, and gradually replace those original people, you must learn the Qin Law."

"It has been hundreds of years since Lord Shang innovated laws in the past and ancestor Chen Lord reformed the laws of Qin!" Ying Zheng heard the meaning of Chen Zheng's words, and his expression that had softened a lot became serious again, and Chen Zheng seemed to have not seen it and just said to himself: "For hundreds of years, Qin Law has been the standard of the Qin State."

"I mentioned King Huiwen just now. I wonder if Your Majesty still remembers something that happened when King Huiwen was still the crown prince?"

"It's quite interesting."

When he looked at Ying Zheng, he felt like he was trying to figure something out.

Ying Zheng smiled softly. There was not much "warmth" in the laughter, but it made people feel bitingly cold.

"of course I remember."

He looked at Chen Zheng and said directly: "Did Prime Minister Chen come here today just to tell me these stories?"

Chen Zheng looked at Ying Zheng with a calm expression: "Maybe."

He said softly: "In the past, King Huiwen, who was the prince, violated the laws of Qin. At that time, Duke Xiao did not care about the majesty of the prince. He just asked my ancestors, Sikou at that time, and later An Guojun Chen Ye and Shang Jun to review the matter."

"Many ministers in the court said that the prince has a noble status, so how can he be dealt with according to the laws of Qin?"

Chen Zheng looked at Ying Zheng with a dark light in his eyes: "Your Majesty, do you know what Duke Xiao said back then?"

"Do you know what King Huiwen, who was the crown prince at that time, said?"

At this point, the purpose of this trip has been completely exposed. Ying Zheng and Chen Zheng sat there tit for tat, with very cold expressions on their faces.

Meng Yi and Han Fei on the side tried their best to make themselves appear more inconspicuous.

"Zhao Gao", who was standing next to Ying Zheng, had a look of fear on his face. He understood and knew what Chen Zheng wanted to do this time.

He is coming to kill himself!

In the name of Qin Lu!

"Gulu——"

Zhao Gao swallowed subconsciously, and immediately wanted to step forward to say something, when he saw Chen Zheng suddenly turning his head to look at him. His eyes were like thunder and lightning, burning a huge hole in his dirty heart!

The murderous look in Chen Zheng's eyes was too obvious!

It’s so obvious that people can feel it without even using their brains!

"Humph--"

Ying Zheng snorted coldly and looked at Chen Zheng majestically: "Does Prime Minister Chen want to come and admonish me?"

"Advise me to punish Zhao Gao?"

Chen Zheng shook his head slightly. He sat there with a very calm expression on his face, making it difficult to tell what he wanted to do.

When Ying Zheng saw Chen Zheng shaking his head, he felt a little confused. Could it be that he had misunderstood?

Isn't Chen Zheng here to punish Zhao Gao?

Zhao Gao stood there, feeling relieved. As long as the people were not here to punish him, they were not here to kill him!

But he didn't know why, he still had a bad feeling in his heart.

Meng Yi and Han Fei were sitting there. Although they were a little disappointed, they were also relieved. They didn't want Chen Zheng and Ying Zheng to have any more disputes!

The two people who are with him know Ying Zheng's character very well. He is very domineering and will never change the things he decides.

But the same is true for Chen Zheng’s character!

stubborn! Strong! And if the two of them fight, it will definitely not be a good thing for Qin!

Before they could say anything to lighten the atmosphere, Chen Zheng's words fell lightly.

Everyone present had a look of confusion on their faces when they heard this sentence, thinking that they heard it wrong. Even Meng Yi and Han Fei swallowed subconsciously, their hearts beating crazily.

crazy.

They all felt this way after hearing what Chen Zheng said.

Chen Zheng was heard saying words that made people think he was crazy in a very fair and calm tone.

"I am not here to advise His Majesty to punish Zhao Gao."

This sentence was nothing, but the next sentence was like a bomb.

"I'm here to capture the guilty minister Zhao Gao, and he will be tried according to the laws of Qin!"

Yes!

arrest!

Chen Zheng said these extremely crazy words very calmly. He wanted to arrest his favorite in front of Ying Zheng, in front of the First Emperor, in front of the emperor who had just unified the world! In the name of Qin Lu!

Ying Zheng's expression was as gloomy as ink. His face had an extremely angry look, but he looked even calmer.

His tiger eyes stared at Chen Zheng tightly, as if he wanted to kill Chen Zheng with his eyes!

Ying Zheng is not a puppet emperor! He is the emperor of the ages! He is the one emperor who has unified the world for all eternity! Chen is not a powerful minister who has all the power and is lawless for a while!

But Chen Zheng still said such words.

In the name of Qin Lu.

When Chen Zheng said those words, there seemed to be a faint "shattering" sound coming from the hall.

For the first time, cracks appeared between Qin State and the Chen family, and between Ying Zheng and Chen Zheng, which could never be repaired.
