Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 266 Not For The King But For The Common People
"The medicine of immortality does not exist at all. Even if three thousand virgins and virgins went out to sea, even if they didn't die in the belly of the fish, they were just satisfying the selfishness of Xu Shi, a villain! Ziying's actions are not for the king, but for the common people. "

Faced with the first emperor's questioning, Ziying responded timidly.

"Okay...ok...a good one who is not for the king but for the common people!" After hearing this, Emperor Shi Huang smiled instead of anger:
"I heard that you are known as a 'virtuous monarch' among the people. It seems unnecessary for me to confer you as the king of the town before."

"Decree to depose Ying Ziying, the king of the town, and restore him to Chang'an Lord. From now on, the constant companion will not be ordered by the king and will not have private contacts."

If others dared to assassinate Xu Shi, a few heads would not be enough to chop off.

The first emperor's treatment of Ziying can be regarded as extremely tolerant.

It's just re-doing the original Chang'an Jun.

The one that had the greatest impact on Ziying was the rule of always accompanying the king. Ziying knew that after the unification of the world, the first emperor basically spent the second half of his life on tour across the country, which also meant that Ziying had to accompany the first emperor to wander around.

Gone are the days of unfettered freedom like before.

After seeing that it was the king of Tangtang Town who assassinated him, Xu Shi already knew that there was not much hope for killing this assassin.

Since he dared to fool the first emperor, Xu Shi had done a lot of homework on the top and bottom of the Qin State. He knew the town king's illustrious military achievements and great power in the military.

If the first emperor had no intention of killing him, this alone would not be enough to put him to death. After all, Ziying assassinated him, Xu Shi, not Yingzheng.

Ziying's loyalty to Daqin is clear to everyone.

... The three daughters Sima Jingjing, who saw Ziying's letter early the next morning, hurried back with Xiao He and Cao Shen.

Sima Jingjing and the three daughters have deep feelings for Ziying, so it is not surprising that they can make such a decision. As for Xiao He and Cao Shen, they can come back together when Ziying's life and death are unknown, regardless of their own life and death, which makes Ziying look a little different.

It can also be seen from this aspect that although rituals and music were broken during the Qin and Han Dynasties, people at this time still attached great importance to oaths.

In fact, Xiao He and Cao Shen did not hesitate. The most important reason why they made up their minds to come back was because they knew that Ziying's move was not for themselves, but for the three thousand virgins in the thatched hut.

For [-] households of ordinary people like them.

As a prince, he can do this dangerous thing for the common people without fear of life and death. With such a master, why would the two of them spare their lives.

After understanding Ziying's deeds, if the two of them followed Ziying more for future development and whether they could make a fortune, now it is only because of Ziying's deeds and Ziying's mind.

But fortunately, things did not develop in the most pessimistic direction. Although Ziying was cut off by one rank of title, and it can be said that he lost his personal freedom, at least he saved his life.

Therefore, as soon as they came back, they didn't receive too much questioning, and they returned to the residence that had been surrounded by the army at this moment.

Before Xu Shi went to sea, Ying Zheng, who had seen Ziying's powerful martial arts, naturally had to ensure that Ziying would not have the chance to assassinate Xu Shi a second time.

At the same time, Xu Shi's residence was protected no less than the first emperor himself, and even two of the four personal guards were assigned to protect Xu Shi.

From this we can also see the first emperor's desire for longevity.

In the Shihuang's bedroom, Zhao Gao, who had been reinstated as an official for a long time, was helping the Shihuang put on his formal clothes while showing hesitant expressions frequently.

Zhao Gao's thoughts naturally completely fell into Ying Zheng's eyes.

"If you want to say something, just say it, why hide it." Shi Huang said casually.

"Is Your Majesty's punishment for Lord Chang'an a bit heavy? After all, Lord Chang'an is in the military, but he can say what he says. Will this disposition cause dissatisfaction among the generals?" Although Zhao Gao was speaking, the movements of his hands were true did not stop.

After Zhao Gao finished speaking, Ying Zheng fell into deep thought for a moment. Earlier, Ziying had shown no interest in power at all, and out of a sense of indebtedness to their father and son, Ying Zheng didn't think too much.

But now that Ziying is being dealt with, Zhao Gao's reminder Yingzheng also understands that although Ziying has a title and no position, most of the main generals of the Great Qin Army have served under Ziying's command.

Moreover, more than half of the Daqin Jiangshan was actually laid down with the participation of Ziying.

"With me here, the sky won't fall." Ying Zheng reprimanded Zhao Gaodao angrily.

Although Ying Zheng's tone was somewhat reproachful, Zhao Gao, who had a very detailed understanding of Shi Huang's temper, knew that the effect of his words had already been achieved.

I am afraid that in the future, the first emperor will not trust Chang'an as much as before.

……

Without Ziying's restraint, the collection of three thousand virgins went very smoothly, and it didn't take long for the number of three thousand to be gathered.

Xu Shi pretended to be decent and chose an auspicious day, and was escorted by the first emperor to board three giant sea ships, and took three thousand virgins and virgins to the sea.

Under the order of the first emperor, Ziying was also forcibly brought to the scene. Looking at the three giant warships going away, the corners of Ziying's eyes couldn't help getting wet.

"If the world is stable one day, I will definitely go to the sea to seek the princes." Ziying thought to himself.

Although Ziying understands that according to today's navigation technology, these three thousand boys and girls are very likely to get lost in the vast sea and eventually die in the belly of a fish.

However, Ziying remembered a legend in his previous life, or a rumor.

Xu Shi took three thousand boys and girls into the sea to seek the elixir. Although he failed to find the three legendary fairy islands, he finally brought the fleet to Japan today and thrived there.

When Liu Bang, Xiang Yu, Zhao Gao and other monsters and monsters are resolved, and the Great Qin Empire is passed on smoothly to the second generation, Ziying doesn't mind going on a boat at that time to go to the legendary Fusang country to see if Xushi, the big fool, has really come to Japan.

Xu Shi had said before that if things went well, he would be able to come back in just one or two months. In order to wait for Xu Shi's return, the First Emperor ordered to temporarily stop the pace of the tour and stay in the Langya garrison.

This wait is three months. From Ying Zheng's point of view, I am afraid that this trip to find the immortal medicine will not be so smooth, and Xu Shi will not be back in a short time.

However, Ying Zheng, who did not give up, still led all the civil and military officials to board a huge ship three months later, and sailed to the sea to see if he could see the traces of Xu Shi.

It's a pity that the shadow of the previous fleet can still be seen in the vast sea.

On the sea, Emperor Shihuang ordered people to use the giant crossbow on the ship to shoot and kill the big fish (whales and sharks) found along the way, hoping to clear some obstacles for Xushi's journey to seek immortality.

No trace of Xu Shi was found, so Emperor Shi Huang ordered to return angrily.
