"Your majesty, the dark cauldrons in the north are still lacking a general. Who do you think is qualified?"
In the dark secret chamber, Zhong Kui, who was like a giant, lowered his head tightly and bowed in front of Ying Zheng.
"How is Bai Qi's illness?"
"He has returned to Xianyang yesterday. It seems like he has fully recovered. "
"En, then let him go. " Ying Zheng waved his hand and said.
"This. . . " Zhong Kui hesitated.
"What, not good?" Ying Zheng walked up the stairs in front of him, then turned around. This height allowed him to continue looking down on everything.
"I naturally won't dare to disobey His Majesty's words. It's just that Bai Qi has never participated in our matters. Will he. . . "
"Bai Qi is a man of good character. He will definitely not do anything bad. Don't worry. " A cold light flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes, and then he asked, "Where did they fight?"
"I heard from the Ghost Messenger that Han Xin did not push forward with his defense. Hsiang Yu and the other forces have stopped a thousand miles away from Xianyang. The only place we have now is a thousand miles wide area. " Zhong Kui sighed.
Ying Zheng's eyes were a little cold. He held his snow-white hand that was devoid of blood. His knuckles were a bit pale. After that, he humphed and said, "They are really good. They actually attacked and swallowed my territory. "
He suddenly flicked his sleeve and walked out. When he arrived in the hall, he gave the order to the eunuch.
"Send a message to the officials, immediately convene a meeting in the Imperial Court!"
"Yes!"
Although the eunuch was confused, he immediately crouched on the ground in fear and slowly retreated with his face pressed against the ground.
Now, this emperor's temper was getting more and more violent. He had killed countless of servants in the past few days. In order to survive, he knew what he should do.
Not long after, the bell in the imperial palace rang. A melodious sound rang out, as if it was a funeral for the empire.
Immediately following that, the sparse crowd walked up to the main hall and stood up straight. However, everyone's face was full of fear and panic as they looked around.
As the prime minister walked in, everyone knelt down and shouted in unison, "Paying respects to Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty. "
Above, Ying Zheng's eyes were especially cold. Less than half of the ministers were left!
The silence of the emperor made everyone feel a pressure. The sky seemed to be shorter, making it hard for them to breathe.
"Long live?" Ying Zheng laughed, then shook his head and said, "Long live how? The officials were all gone, and the enemies were coming. It would be a problem to see if they could live past the end of the month. There was no need to talk about being ten thousand years old! "
Hearing this, the officials lowered their heads even more and hurriedly said, "His Majesty is serious! His Majesty is blessed by the heavens. The crisis will definitely be resolved. "
"According to what you said, we don't have to do anything. With my blessing, the enemy will retreat? " Ying Zheng smiled again. There was a moment of silence below, and his face was covered in cold sweat.
"Prime Minister, why are you late?" Ying Zheng asked.
Li Si answered in a hurry, "Your Majesty, I am checking the number of people. I want to see how many officials have fled. I have captured their families. "
"At least I have done some useful things. " Ying Zheng nodded and smiled. He said, "That's right. Tell me, how many officials have escaped?"
"About. . . Sixty to seventy percent. " Li Si's forehead was full of sweat as he replied in a trembling voice.
"Good, very good!"
Ying Zheng nodded. Then, he stared at Li Si and asked, "Are their family members still alive?"
"They have been captured. "
. . . "What are you keeping them for? Kill them!" Ying Zheng's words were quite straightforward and casual. In his eyes, human lives were nothing more than ants.
"Yes!" Li Si's body trembled and he hurriedly nodded his head.
"Sigh!"
Ying Zheng stood up and shook his head, saying, "Within a thousand miles, how many more residences do we have?"
"The civilians are moving out, but due to the obstruction of the army, not many have left. " Li Si answered once again.
"Pass on my order. If any more civilians escape, kill them!"
Everyone below trembled.
"Hold on, this is not enough!"
Ying Zheng smiled coldly. He waved his hand and threw down a token. "But one of them ran away. Kill everyone in the village. Leave no one alive! As long as he escaped from the planned land, he would kill without warning. Do you hear me? "
"Yes. . . Yes. " The sweat on Li Si's head had already soaked the ground.
"You guys, don't let me down. "
"We will do our best to assist His Majesty. "
"These are just words. "
Ying Zheng shook his head and walked into the room. He said, "It's boring. It's boring. I only watch you clowns perform because I'm bored. Those who are not afraid of death can leave. I won't stop you, hahaha! "
The loud noises left, and the faces of all the ministers below were filled with a dense and miserable expression. Their sighs filled the entire hall, and they looked at each other and couldn't help but wipe away their tears.
"Lord Wu An. "
A dark shadow suddenly appeared in Bai Qi's room.
"Ghost Guard!"
Bai Qi suddenly stood up and walked towards the shadow.
Not many people knew about Gui Wei, but Bai Qi knew that this was the personal guard of the Emperor, and he usually wouldn't show his face.
"His Majesty asked me to send you a letter. After reading it, you will leave immediately. "
Gui Wei waved his hand and threw out a letter.
Bai Qi was a little confused. He opened the letter and glanced at it. Shock flashed across his eyes. He took the letter and walked to the light. He burned it and said, "Please tell His Majesty to be at ease. Bai Qi will definitely do it. "
"In that case, I will go first. His Majesty was right about the person. " Gui Wei laughed and disappeared in a flash.
"Sigh. "
The light went out and the sickle was lifted up. The figure wearing the blood-red cloak walked out.
It had been a few days since the war started. It was rumored that the Great Qin was going to be extinguished in the entire King Continent.
However, judging from the current situation, the possibility of this happening was quite high.
The Great Qin only had a thousand miles of land left after the eight attacks. It was difficult for them to hold on any longer. However, the strange thing was that the eight attacks had stopped at this moment, which surprised everyone in the world.
Liu Bahn and the other families were also watching the battle. In the end, they chose to remain silent.2
The dark forces had been defeated, and Chiang Kang had used propaganda to label the Great Qin as a dark force. If they stood out to help the Great Qin at this time, it would be like throwing dung on themselves.
Fortunately, Ying Zheng seemed to be very open-minded and didn't pull his allies along, which was a little surprising.
"It has already come to this point, but Ying Zheng is still indifferent. Does this guy belong to the Eighth Prince? "
In the big tent, Chiang Kang furrowed his brows tightly.
Zhuge Liang was silent. After a long time, he said, "All troops will be sent out and pushed out of Xianyang City!"
