Daily Life In Qin Dynasty

"what happened?"

The rich smell of blood made Li Si's breath hitch.

And when he followed the crack in the door to see clearly what was going on inside, Li Si's pupils suddenly shrank.

corpse.

There were corpses everywhere.

The bright red blood soaked the white snow, and in the courtyard behind the door, including the concierge, servants, and servants... there was not a single living person in the entire Jin family's house.

"Has Shengping-kun already arrived?"

Looking at the chilling scene in front of him, Li Si had an absurd idea in his mind.

But this can't be blamed on Li Si, because judging from the current situation, the miserable situation of the Jin family is too much like the handiwork of Lord Mo.

Li Si stepped into Jin Mansion.

Li Si, who studied the art of Legalism, would naturally not be afraid of dozens of corpses.

After a simple investigation, Li Siji was able to confirm that the Jin family was really wiped out.

The current head of the Jin family died in the main hall. The bright red blood flowing from the slender wound on his neck stained his formal clothes. Li Si stretched out a finger to touch the corpse's cheek, and the sound came from his fingertips. The warm touch instantly changed Li Si's eyes.

However, before he could make the next move, suddenly, a sigh came from behind.

"Isn't it good to pretend to be stupid once in a while?"

The sudden voice caused Li Si's movements to lag slightly, but he soon regained his composure, turned around slowly, and said, "Why bother pretending like this? With your skills, even if the head of the Jin family has just died, you will still be dead." It’s enough to escape easily without Li Si noticing.”

"Since you took the initiative to show up, you must have been waiting here for a long time!"

What appeared in front of Li Si was a mysterious figure holding a strange-shaped pink sheathed sword, wearing a strange mask, and wearing long linen clothes.

When he saw the mysterious figure himself, Li Si didn't react much.

But when Li Si saw the long sword in the opponent's hand, his eyes shrank.

"Hahaha... It's amazing. This kind of insight and ability to see every detail is worthy of being the one specially ordered to win over by the superiors."

"Coaxing?"

Li Si narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, the reason why I specially waited here this time is to invite Lord Li Si to join us." The masked man said.

"to join you guys?"

Li Si looked around and said slowly: "The Jin clan has always had no grudges with you in the past and in the recent past, but now you have specially sent you, the 'Tianzi No. 1', to massacre the entire Jin clan. You must be your target." It shouldn’t just be the Jin family, right?”

The masked man's eyes showed a hint of dangerous light, and he said quietly: "Master Li, being smart is a good thing, but sometimes being too smart can be very dangerous."

Li Si snorted coldly and said, "What can joining you bring me?"

The masked man raised his voice: "As long as you are willing, we can bring you everything you want. And in order to express our sincerity, now we can give you a big meeting gift."

"Oh? What kind of greeting gift?"

"The position of 'Tingwei' you have always wanted. Maybe you don't know that not long ago, the King of Qin has decided to hand over the 'Shi Nie theft case' in Hedong County to you. As long as you are willing to join We, then we can help you solve the 'grain tax' and 'stone nirvana' issues in Hedong County. By then, the position of Tingwei will be within your reach."

Li Si's eyes flashed.

I have to admit that the bait given by the masked man is indeed very attractive to Li Si.

However, after a brief thought, Li Si finally shook his head and said: "This is indeed a big meeting gift, but it is a pity that Li Si is in Qin now and cannot join another force."

Hearing this, the masked man's eyes instantly burst with murderous intent, saying: "Aren't you afraid of death? You should know the price of rejecting us."

Li Si sneered and said: "Ha~~Although I can't guess your real goal yet, if Dianke, one of the nine dignitaries of the Qin Kingdom, dies here, no matter what other plans you have in the future, I'm afraid you will be alerted! "

As soon as this statement came out.

The murderous intent in the masked man's eyes also quickly dissipated, and he chuckled: "As expected of Li Si. Since you are unwilling to join us, let's put it another way. We can help you solve the problem in Hedong County, but you also need to help us with a little Busy, how about it?"

"no!"

As soon as the masked man finished speaking, he heard Li Si say: "I will never cooperate with you, but... I can pretend that I didn't see what happened today."

After saying that, Li Si turned around and left Jin Mansion.

The masked man behind him looked at Li Si's leaving figure, his eyes flickered a few times, but he didn't stop him.

After Li Si's figure completely disappeared, another figure wearing black armor slowly appeared in the main hall.

Saw this figure appear.

The masked man immediately walked over and said, "The wooing plan failed."

The man in black armor waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter. When Li Si followed the previous leader, he was an old fox who was proficient in protecting himself wisely. He would not easily fall into line. At the moment, we just need to ensure his next plan. As long as you don’t talk nonsense.”

Li Si's sudden arrival in Hedong County was a helpless accident.

Li Si, who was born in the Legalist family, and Han Fei, both have uncanny investigative skills. Although they are confident that their arrangements will not be easily seen through, there is no guarantee that accidents will not occur.

In order to prevent accidents, they finally decided to reveal part of the information in advance so that Li Si could shut up and not disrupt their subsequent plans.

The man in black armor said to the masked man: "We can start setting up. The snare has not appeared in the world for several years. Now that it has returned to the world, we need a sacrifice of sufficient weight to indicate our return."

······

······

Everything is as the masked man said.

Not long after Li Si left the Jin Mansion, he received an order from Ying Zheng at the Hedong County Sheriff's Mansion, asking him to investigate the "Shi Nie theft case" in Hedong County. With the demise of the Jin family, Li Si All the resistance on the east side of the river seemed to disappear at once.

Just two days.

The "Shi Nie theft case" and the "grain tax case" in Hedong County were solved one after another.

The stolen Shi Nie was returned to Zhang Zongzhao, the governor of Hedong County. After Zhang Zongzhao received the Shi Nie, he first expressed his gratitude to Li Si and then immediately began to organize disaster relief work.

Li Si did not stay in Hedong County for long, and quickly returned to Xianyang to report his results to Ying Zheng.

"Li Qing is lucky."

In Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng was sitting on the throne, looking at the memorial presented by Li Si, and nodded with satisfaction.

Li Si said respectfully: "This is what a minister should do."

Ying Zheng said: "This time Li Qing solves two major cases in a row, I will be rewarded heavily."

Li Si quickly saluted and said, "Thank you so much, Your Majesty."

Li Si is not Mr. Mo. He has not yet reached the point where he has no place to put his merits and wants to throw them away.

Precisely.

Mr. Mo's jump-like promotion path is not replicable.

Ordinary people's promotion usually relies on hard work, moving upward bit by bit. If there are no good opportunities, it is considered good to be promoted to one or two levels in a few years.

Just like this time.

If Ying Zheng hadn't deliberately trained Li Si and given him this opportunity, Li Si would have had to wait for many years if he wanted to be promoted from Dianke to Tingwei.

Li Si thanked Ying Zheng, just as the two were planning to continue to communicate about the details of the Hedong County case.

suddenly.

Only a shrill wailing was heard coming from outside Xianyang Palace.

Such noises were heard in the palace, and Ying Zheng couldn't help but frown slightly. Just when he was about to ask the guards outside the palace what happened.

At the gate of Zhangtai Palace, a figure with disheveled hair and bloodshot eyes, looking like a madman, actually rushed away from the guards at the door and staggered into Zhangtai Palace.

Then he suddenly knelt down in front of Ying Zheng and let out a shrill wail: "Your Majesty, I have been wronged, I have been wronged!"

Ying Zheng sat on the throne and looked at the figure who broke into Zhangtai Palace below for several times before he recognized that this 'madman' was none other than Jin Youjun, the great Qin Tingwei.

Even Ying Zheng couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Jin Youjun, one of the Nine Great Qin Qings, suddenly look like this.

Then, before Ying Zheng could ask what was going on?

Then I heard Jin Youjun shouting to himself: "I want to sue Lord Mo, I want to sue Lord Mo for robbing human life, my whole family, my whole family will be killed by him...poof!"

The words are not finished yet.

Jin Youjun suddenly became furious, raised his head and spat out a large mouthful of blood, then suddenly fell to the ground and fell unconscious in Zhangtai Palace.

"Come here, tell the doctor, tell the doctor!"

Although it is not yet clear what happened, the dignified ‘Ting Wei’, one of the Nine Qin Qings, suddenly fainted in front of him, which also made Ying Zheng’s expression change.

It didn't take long.

Several imperial doctors, led by the guards, hurried to Zhangtai Palace.

After preliminary examinations by several imperial doctors, the final diagnosis was: "Reporting to the King, Master Jin should be suffering from a sudden attack of anger. Once we apply acupuncture, he should be able to wake up soon."

After hearing what several imperial doctors said, Ying Zheng was temporarily relieved.

Although Ying Zheng really hopes to let Jin Youjun die, he must not die in this way.

After receiving Jin Youjun's answer that he was not in danger for the time being, Ying Zheng turned his attention back to what he had just said.

Jin Youjun wants to sue Mr. Mo?

to be honest.

When he first heard these words, Ying Zheng almost instinctively felt that this group of people had come up with some new conspiracy.

But for a while, I had no idea.

After a while.

Only then did Ying Zheng speak: "Xuan Sheng Pingjun and his ministers have entered the palace to pay their respects."
