Chapter 017: Your Majesty Still Misses You(2/2)
"His Majesty!"
Gai Nie emphasized these two words expressionlessly and said softly: "Nie's duty is to protect His Majesty's safety. Nie is not a member of Lord Chang'an."
"I know, I want you to be my official seal!"
Oh, how ridiculous! Cheng Xiu rebelled? No one can rebel against Cheng Xiu!
Gai Nie had only been a guest of Cheng Xi for a few days, but he also became lazy. Even if I gave the emperor to Cheng Xi, he would not even bother to sit down.
"only."
Gai Nie felt helpless and agreed expressionlessly.
He can't go against the emperor.
The three of them walked together, with Ying Zheng in front, Zhao Gao and Ge Nie trailing half a step behind.
When he arrived at Zhangtai Palace, Zhao Gao lost his post as the official seal official and stood outside consciously.
Ying Zheng and Gai Nie enter.
Unfolding a blank bamboo slip, Ying Zheng wrote an imperial edict with the pen of "Dragon God" and handed it to Gai Nie.
"Give the imperial edict to Meng Ao, and Meng Ao will have the right not to worship."
On that day, Meng Ao received a bamboo slip addressed only to him.
The bamboo slips didn't have many characters, and they didn't have the imperial seal, but Meng Ao recognized the handwriting, which clearly belonged to the First Emperor Ying Zheng!
After receiving the bamboo slip, Meng Ao started drinking alcohol in his room for the first time. He had been abstaining from alcohol for more than 20 years.
"Mr. Chang'an, Your Majesty is still thinking about you. Your Majesty is a wise king! The one who trusts Mr. Chang'an the most is Your Majesty!"
On the bamboo slip he was holding tightly, there were only fifteen words: Mr. Meng, have a good life and rest. Don't worry about my two brothers. If you succeed, I will give up my throne.
On that day, people from all walks of life walked out of Xianyang Palace one by one and were escorted by the palace officials to various mansions.
The city defense army also lifted the previous order to arrest suspicious persons immediately and shoot them on the spot if they resisted.
Patrolling and guarding the city, it returned to what it was like a day ago.
It seemed that that tense day was just a fleeting moment, a passing cloud, all an illusion.
