A Internal Service came in and reported, "The Central Palace requires Zhao Gao to seek an audience." Ying Zheng raised his head and said, "Let him in." After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and continued to read the mountain of tables.

A handsome, middle-aged man with a fair complexion walked in and kowtowed: "This subject, Zhao Gao, greets Your Majesty. Long live the Emperor!"

Ying Zheng laughed bitterly, "Long live? "I'm afraid that it's just flattery to make us happy." His voice paused as he looked at Zhao Gao with his sharp hawk eyes: "My Close Zhao, it's already so late, what do you want to start?"

This Zhao Gao who started it late at night had been rumoured throughout the world.

Zhao Gao had a natural talent since he was a child. When he was twenty, he had memorized all five thousand words of the book, word for word. It was also written in eight different fonts, including and calligraphy. "Three years later, Zhao Gao was promoted to the position of the imperial scholar for the Unification Exam.

If one were to say that Qin Shi was a scholar, then Zhao Gao's talent could be considered as a top scholar. However, there were no examinations at that time, only simple exams designed to study history.

Because Zhao Gao was proficient in calligraphy, he entered the Qin Palace with beautiful and practiced writing and became the close servant of the Qin Wang. Due to's high regard for him, he became Young Master Huhai's master.

As for Zhao Gao who was widely known for being a eunuch, he was in fact a person of the later generation, the literary business. History: Meng Tian was known as the Inheritor, while the others were also known as the Inheritor. A few of Zhao Gao's Kundi's people had been born with hidden palaces, their mother had been wronged, and they were all despicable people. Zhao Gao was originally after Zhao State as a proton. Chang'an Monarchs had no care in the Zhao State, were helpless in the Qin State, stayed in the Qin State for life, and gathered wives and children in the Qin State. As for the word "hidden palace", it was actually written incorrectly. What was correct was the word "hidden officials". The Concealer was an identity between a bastard and a slave, equivalent to the release of today's sentence.

Historically speaking, Zhao Gao had a daughter, Yan Le, who married her Xianyang. Think about it, if Zhao Gao was an eunuch, how could there be a woman? A single word difference, even the slightest mistake, was far too ridiculous.

Returning to the main topic, the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, asked Zhao Gao what he wanted to say as he arrived late at night. Zhao Gao said: "I've heard recently that a few strange things have happened in the Central Plains." The Emperor replied with a "Oh" and asked, "What's so strange about that?"

Zhao Gao said worriedly: "In the eastern area of the Qi continent, there is a meteorite falling from the sky with the prophecy of 'the First Emperor dying and the world being divided' engraved on it. And at the foot of Mount Hua on the road, there is also a jade wall with the words' this year's Ancestor Dragon is about to die 'carved on it.

Ying Zheng was startled at first when he heard this, but then he laughed out loud: "Those villains from a country that have lost their sense of justice, they purposefully made up these things to tempt the masses, fooling the ignorant Lu Li, it's just a small matter, there's no need to bother about it."

Zhao Gao then continued: "Recently, I have heard from the Scout that the remnants of Three Jin Alliance and the Huns have colluded with each other internally and externally, and they are ready to break out and return to their homeland."

Ying Zheng smiled lightly, "We had already known this would happen. With General Meng Tian guarding the Great Wall, my Great Qin is as stable as a boulder, My Close does not need to worry. "What I am worried about now is the group of Anti-scoundrel from the Mo family."

Zhao Gao said: "I recently heard that Upper General Meng Yi's Longwupo was defeated by Anti-scoundrel. Ying Zheng frowned: "Meng Yi has gone through hundreds of battles, and no one in my Great Qin has ever surpassed him. I never thought that he would actually lose to a nameless junior, with a master that is several times stronger."

Zhao Gao continued: "I heard that the person who defeated the Upper General was a disciple of the Zang Heng Family, and his name was Han Xin. Then why didn't His Majesty use a lightning-fast method to punish the members of the Zang family when they were in cahoots with descendants of the six countries and the Anti-scoundrel of the Mo family? "

Ying Zheng nodded, "My Close is right. At first, I respected Guigu Xuance as a cultivator of the immortal realms, but since his disciples did not rebel at all, I allowed them to roam around freely. But now that he has received Mo Zhuang that fellow who spread his news, sending all of his disciples down the mountain to counter my Great Qin, we cannot tolerate him any longer. This matter has already been handed over to National Officer, so there is no need for My Close to worry. "

Zhao Gao said: "But I do not know how Your Majesty will deal with those Anti-scoundrel s." Ying Zheng said: "The descendant of the Marquis of Wucheng General's house, both wise and brave, join forces with Meng Yi, and we can protect ourselves."

Zhao Gao was about to leave, then with a wave of his hand, he said: "My Close, please wait!" Zhao Gao asked: "Does Your Majesty still have any other instructions for me?"

Ying Zheng said: "My son Huhai, has a mischievous nature and is not like brother Fu Su. My Close needs to use more thought to teach this lowly one.

Zhao Gao's lips twitched as he replied, "Yes." He stepped back in embarrassment.

Zhao Gao left the palace and followed the main road to return to his place in the Inn.

He had been thinking about what the First Emperor had told him, and it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his heart.

Zhao Gao was the master of the young master Huhai. Since he was the teacher of a prince, his entire mind was filled with ideas and plans for his student, and not just simply describing a few scriptures.

The eldest son of the Emperor, Fu Su, was the Crown Prince appointed by the First Emperor. Only by removing this obstacle could his disciple step over the threshold and sit on the throne of the Dragon Throne.

The ministers in the imperial court, with Prime Minister Li Si as their head, were mostly the legal family, they advocated for the centralization of power, for the severe punishment of the country. This would inevitably affect the interests of the local sects, led by Meng Tian.

During the reign of Qin Xiao Gong, the protector Shang Martingale came to the Qin State alone to introduce changes in order to establish the rule of law in the country. Although he received the full support of the Duke of Qin, allowing his Qin State to soar into the sky, he had become a powerful country that looked disdained to the east. He had also subdued the land of the river and the west. He had done a great service. However, after the death of the Duke of Qin, King Huiwen succeeded the throne. Such a meritorious general of the Qin State was sentenced to death by the car-breaking punishment of a local sect who hated him. And now, the power of law seemed to have increased even further.

The Doctor Group, after the First Emperor of Qin unified the world, advocated for the restoration of the feudal system and the distribution of the noble sons and daughters to various places for the administration of power. The First Emperor then passed this suggestion to the court for discussion. Prime Minister Li Si immediately retorted sternly, "It has been decided today, there will be one decree, the people will be in charge, the laborers will be in charge, and the scholars will be in charge. "Today is the first time in my life to learn from the ancients, to be different from the current world and to be disorderly." The First Emperor thought so and refused to accept Chunyu Yue's suggestion.

Not long after, the First Emperor occasionally saw Li Si riding on a carriage, and was extremely dissatisfied, as he complained. When these words reached Li Si's ears, he immediately reduced the number of followers. When the First Emperor heard this, he was enraged, and executed all of the servants that sent the message to Li Si. Therefore, all the ministers and officials felt uneasy and did not dare to approach the First Emperor too closely.

The power of the court was divided into two. In order to protect their own privileges, the native sect led by Meng Tian openly supported the Prince Fu Su, who advocated righteousness and righteousness. As for the other faction, they mostly came from outsiders, so they secretly coordinated with Zhao Gao, hoping that after the First Emperor died, they wouldn't follow in the footsteps of Shang Ma.

Seeing that the Emperor had sent the Crown Prince Fu Su to the Great Wall's garrison, these people looked like they had seen the dawn. And Zhao Gao's secret instigation had a huge impact.

The last words the Demon Emperor said to Zhao Gao today, was like knocking down a mountain and shaking a tiger, causing Zhao Gao's restless heart to feel cold to the extreme.

The First Emperor was patrolling the east side. There was a curfew in this city. Other than officials like Zhao Gao, no one else dared to walk on the streets. Occasionally, the patrolling soldiers could be seen walking by in groups with lanterns in their hands.

Zhao Gao's carriage travelled through the streets. Zhao An, who was driving the carriage, was a clumsy, muscular man. He was bare-armed as he spurred his horse forward in the cold wind.

A cold wind blew from the side of the road, startling the horse. It raised its front hooves, let out a long hiss, and came to a sudden stop.

A black shadow flashed out from behind the tree and stood in front of the carriage. Zhao An lashed out with his whip. "Who are you?" "How dare you block my master's car!" The man reached out his hand and gently coiled it around his chest. Zhao An's horsewhip had already landed in his hand. When he raised his head, he couldn't help but be startled. A wave of cold air seeped into his body from head to toe.

Zhao Gao stuck his head out from the carriage and asked: "Zhao An, why aren't the carriages leaving?" Zhao An pointed at the man and said, "He —" He was so scared that he could no longer utter a word.

That person's entire face seemed as if it was sliced off by a knife, and only a triangle was left, and his muscles withered and distorted savagely. Under the moonlight, he was like a dried corpse walking out of a grave.

When Zhao Gao saw it, he was extremely terrified. He was an official after all, unlike Zhao An who had never seen the world. He came back to his senses after a short while. He gathered up his courage and asked respectfully, "May I know who your esteemed lord is? Why are you blocking my way?"

The man laughed sinisterly: Master Zhao, you are now a popular man by Ying Zheng's side, why don't you recognize my old friend?

"Who is so bold? "He dares to call His Majesty by his name and call him a brat?" Zhao Gao could not help but be shocked. However, hearing him say that he was an old friend, he couldn't help but take a few glances at him. For a while, he couldn't remember. So he asked, "How come I don't know you?"

The man sneered: "When Master Zhao entered and left the Residence, did you recognize me, Guan Zhongxie?"

When Zhao Gao heard the two words "Guan Zhongxie," he was shocked.

At that time, Zhao Gao was just a mere chronicler. He had been invited by Lu Buwei to write his < < Lu Family's Spring and Autumn > >. Guan Zhongxie, on the other hand, was a charming guest of Lu Buwei. Zhao Gao had met Guan Zhongxie before, and in front of him, he could only nod his head and bow.

Zhao Gao heard that the First Emperor had ordered Wei Liao to send his Shadow Martial Army to capture Guan Zhongxie, but after the mission had failed, Guan Zhongxie had disappeared. Unexpectedly, the person who looked like he walked out of hell today, was actually the graceful Guan Zhongxie of the past.

Guan Zhongxie was an evil being of the First Emperor, but tonight, he found him and stopped his carriage. Zhao Gao forced himself to calm down, and said: "So it's Master Guan. I wonder why sire is looking for me today? " Guan Zhongxie laughed coldly, "Of course I do!" With that, he got into Zhao Gao's carriage and entered the curtain.

Zhao Gao thought that this Guan Zhongxie definitely did not have good intentions in finding him, and immediately wanted to push him down. Unexpectedly, Guan Zhongxie flipped his vine like hand and placed it on Zhao Gao's forehead. A wave of Genuine Qi entered Zhao Gao's aura sea.
