Nightfall.

Surabaya Pavilion.

The breeze blows by, bringing a little coolness.

Hu Wancang stood in the pavilion, looking around and waiting silently. At this moment, he was extremely uneasy, fearing that Li Si would just kill him. Li Si was quite famous in Xianyang. Although he was a disciple of Xunzi, he was a Legalist.

Representative figure, single-handedly formulated many laws.

Qin's ability to destroy the six kingdoms was inseparable from Li Si's advice and suggestions. After the destruction of Qi, the former prime minister Wang Wan wrote a letter hoping that the emperor could establish princes to control remote places such as Yan, Qi, and Chu. Li Si was still the minister on the spot.

Screaming angrily, the emperor finally approved the implementation of the county system.

How could he not be afraid in the face of such a ruthless person?

Hu Wancang had a clear understanding of himself. He knew that he was not a good minister. Managing a county was basically his limit. Therefore, he never thought about being promoted to a high official position. He only thought about being able to serve in the government.

Make some money before retiring and returning home.

The result...

He is in a panic now!

I'm afraid Cao Xiu will tell everything.

Of course, he probably guessed something. Li Si disguised himself as a grain merchant and hid his identity, clearly coming to Surabaya County to find an assassin. He was afraid that the assassin was related to Cao Xiu, and that he and he would be implicated.<

/p>

After waiting for a long time, I finally saw someone coming.

Qin Shihuang walked in front.

Wang Jian and Li Si followed behind, walking separately. Originally, they planned to go out early, but Cao Xiu didn't sleep at all and didn't give them a chance. In the end, Wang Jian was the better one and led them out of the tunnel.

Li Si exclaimed to Xiu'er, this was a trick he had never imagined. Cao Xiu was afraid that he would be discovered one day, so he spent a lot of money to dig this tunnel. Even if he was surrounded outside, he could slip away through the tunnel.

"Um?"

Seeing the person coming, Hu Wancang was stunned for a moment. Although he had doubts in his heart, he did not dare to say anything. Then he raised his hands and bowed with great respect, "Cang, meet the Prime Minister!"

"You are so brave!"

"I am guilty!"

Hu Wancang knelt down and kowtowed.

Li Si showed a cold look on his face and continued: "As a county magistrate, you are supposed to govern Peixian County wholeheartedly. However, you colluded with local powerful people, used public weapons for private purposes, and used power for personal gain. For what you have done, I will sentence you to be demoted and transferred to another county."

Shu!"

"Prime Minister, calm down, Prime Minister, calm down..."

Hu Wancang kept kowtowing and was terrified.

Qin's laws are strict, especially for Qin officials. Qin officials must be proficient in Qin's laws. Knowing the law and breaking it will naturally result in an additional one-level crime. If someone breaks the law and makes a mistake and is dismissed from office, it is equivalent to deposing an official. A deposed official can never be elected as a new official.

Officer!

The next moment, Li Si's tone softened a little. He was just trying to gain a head start and give Hu Wancang power, but he was not really going to investigate.

"Get up."

"Thank you, Prime Minister!"

"Do you know why I came to Pei County this time?"

"Is it to capture the assassin?"

"The so-called assassins are fake." Li Si said with a calm expression: "From the beginning to the end, no one assassinated the emperor. It was just that when His Majesty was patrolling the East China Sea, he encountered a storm and accidentally fell into the sea. In order to find His Majesty, this was done As an excuse."

"This...this..."

Hu Wancang listened blankly, and then he realized something. Without thinking, he knelt on the ground again and said, "Prime Minister, please forgive me, please forgive me! Although Cang has made mistakes, he has also worked hard over the years, so he will not be in trouble." Are you going to die?"

"Why did you say this?"

This operation directly destroyed Qin Shihuang.

So good, what is this guy doing?

Hu Wancang burst into tears and choked up: "Cang knows that the more he knows, the more miserable his death will be. The prime minister told Cang this secret, obviously he wanted to silence him! Cang swore to God that what happened today will never happen. Don’t reveal even a cent.”

"..."

"..."

There were some black lines on Li Si's forehead.

"Don't worry, I have no intention of silencing you."

"Really?"

"If you dare to say more, then it will be as you wish!"

"..."

Li Si calmed down a little and continued: "In less than two days, we will not search Sishui County again. You must handle these corns well."

"It's over?"

"Yes."

"Have you found His Majesty?"

"Right in front of you."

Li Si said and glanced to the side.

"Ah?!"

Hu Wancang looked at the child in front of him and was stunned.

Is this the emperor?

Are you kidding?!

Then Hu Wancang seemed to understand something, and suddenly realized: "Cang understands, is this the second emperor? I don't know, which young master is he?"

"Presumptuous!" Lisheng was furious and quickly raised his hands and bowed: "Your Majesty is alive and well, how dare you speak nonsense about the second emperor?"

"Um?"

Hu Wancang was stunned.

Wait a minute... Let him take care of it first!

If he remembered correctly, the boy's name was Azheng, an orphan picked up by Cao Xiu. According to Li Si, the boy in front of him was the First Emperor, and he was only eight years old this year?

It’s simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!

Finally, Qin Shihuang walked out with his hands behind his back.

"What, you don't believe it?"

"This...this...this..."

"Don't say you don't believe it, I didn't believe it at first either." Li Si said, dumbfounded: "But, this is God's will. Your Majesty's virtues are as great as those of the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors. After being enshrined in Mount Tai, he was recognized by Haotian. Even if you fall into the sea, you can still escape intact.

And he will be rejuvenated and have another thirty years of life."

Look, Lisdo can talk?

This is half true and half false, but it is very reasonable.

Hu Wancang stared blankly at the child.

Then, he knelt on the ground again with a pop.

"Cang, the guilty minister, pays homage to Your Majesty! Cang is blind and blind. He failed to recognize Your Majesty for so long. He really deserves death!"

"Your sins don't stop there." Qin Shihuang sneered and said, "I don't blame you for not recognizing me. After all, he who doesn't know is not guilty. Even if I haven't returned to my old age, you have never seen me and you can't recognize me."

Normal."

Hu Wancang knelt on the ground, shaking like chaff.

"If not, how could I know about the dirty things you did in Peixian County?"

"The guilty minister...the guilty minister knows his mistake!"

Hu Wancang almost cried.

Li Si just finished spraying earlier, why do you do it again?

"I'll give you a chance to make up for your mistakes."

"The guilty minister is willing!"

"Aren't you afraid?"

"Even if I go up mountains of swords and go down into seas of fire, I am willing to do it."
