Chapter 130: Castrating him before execution
Yaoxing drew a handkerchief and slashed it in half, and handed it over to the palace maid who had just spoken.
Needless to say, Zhao Ji must understand the meaning of "send it to the Empress Dowager".
Yaoxing sometimes really hopes that Zhao Ji is not the queen mother, but just the ordinary woman who adopted her then, so there would be no such thing as this.
I will be together with Zhao Zheng in this era for a lifetime, and will grow up with Zhao Zheng, get married naturally, realize my ambitions together, have children, and grow old together.
After all Lao Ai's confessions were sorted out, Li Si submitted them to Zhao Zheng separately after some modification. He originally planned to make Zhao Zheng Lu Buwei guilty of rebellion, but Zhao Zheng refused to mention it after he was silent.
Yaoxing went to give Zhao Zheng a snack, but happened to meet him and eavesdropped in the back hall for a while.
Just as Yao Xing expected, Zhao Zheng did not believe that Lu Buwei would rebel, nor did he want to kill Lu Buwei.
For the king, the authenticity of the evidence is not important, what is important is the king's ideas and decisions.
But he didn't expect that Zhao Ji cared so much about Lao Ai and those two children, and even forced him to die in the bedroom, leaving a letter saying that he would exchange his life for the lives of the two children.
A white silk was hung on the beam. If the guards outside hadn't heard the sound of the stool falling down and went in to check, Zhao Ji might have been really hung.
Zhao Zheng was not worried about Zhao Ji's injuries. He knew his mother. This should be just Zhao Ji's bitter trick to make him soft-hearted and make him worry about his reputation and have to compromise.
If he allowed his mother to commit suicide in the palace, he would have lost his reputation and be caught by people from the six kingdoms and scolded him at will.
It can only be said that Zhao Ji underestimated his son's cruelty. From the time when Zhao Ji planted the person who poisoned Yaoxing with the intention of Zhao Zheng to escape his succession, he had only resentment towards this mother.
"The person involved in Lao Ai's rebellion will be exiled for three years for the least, and the person severely exiled to Shu. The punishments of Lao Ai and his two sons will be decided by the queen. If you come to supervise the punishment, please ask the queen mother to observe the punishment." Zhao Zhengjiang, everyone except Lu Buwei, was the only one who was in charge of Zhao.
He set a punishment, and even fulfilled his promise to Yaoxing to Zhao Ji.
Yaoxing knew that he was worth it and would not force Zhao Zheng to offend his mother, but his heart felt like a knife was shattered, so Zhao Ji had to taste it.
Yaoxing pushed the door and walked in: "King, political affairs are heavy, and we can't finish it in a short while. Use some refreshments and take a break!"
The status of a woman in Qin State is not low, and Zhao Zheng trusts Yaoxing, so his study and bedroom are not guarded against Yaoxing. Yaoxing comes and goes freely, and he does not even need to avoid suspicion from court officials.
"The queen is coming, I'm talking about you." Zhao Zheng stretched out his hand and even Yao Xing went over.
Yaoxing walked up slowly, and immediately took the tea and sat with him.
"The queen thinks, how should Lao Ai and her son be punished?" Zhao Zheng asked.
Yaoxing had already thought of Lao Ai's death dozens of ways when he was most hatred. Now he didn't need to consider it at all: "If you commit a serious crime of treason, you should punish the nine clans. However, since the empress dowager favors Lao Ai so much, we are not here as sons and daughters-in-law.
Let's pursue his family!"
"Lao Ai was given a punishment, his two sons..."
Yaoxing hesitated, Lao Ai was extremely guilty, and Yaoxing was not soft-hearted at all. But even though he knew that they would die, he could not easily say the punishment he had given to them.
After all, killing and killing are two different things.
"The two sons are punished together." Zhao Zheng said what Yao Xing wanted to say but couldn't bear to say.
