Xianyang City.
Three large characters were displayed on the city gate tower.
Han Xin, seated on his warhorse, saw these three words and his spirits immediately lifted.
"Long San, Long Er, help Master Zifang up. Let's go see the Prime Minister now!"
"promise!"
Han Xin didn't care what opinions these people had about him leaving the team. Anyway, his teacher was Li Lin, so if there was a problem, his teacher could take the blame.
What are teachers for?
They're just there to take the blame.
"Halt! You cannot leave! Han Xin, how dare you desert the group? You are now a criminal and should go to the imperial prison with your accomplices!"
"On what grounds? Han refuses to admit those crimes. If you want to find fault, you can always find a pretext. Don't force Han!"
With a "whoosh," Han Xin drew his sword, cut the iron chains, and severed the bindings around the waists of everyone around him.
"Damn it! I am Le Cheng, the Commandant sent by His Majesty to send you to the Imperial Prison. You criminals, how dare you talk back to me? Han Xin, how dare you draw your sword and cut your chains? Do you intend to openly rebel?"
Just as Han Xin broke away from the group.
The eunuch then completed the formalities with Captain Le Cheng, who had come to pick him up.
Le Cheng's current responsibility is to send these people to prison.
He was tall and strong, with hundreds of Qin soldiers behind him, carrying long spears, looking fiercely at Han Xin and his men, each one ready to face battle.
Everyone's nerves were on edge at that moment.
The people who were about to enter or leave the city were now blocked by this group of people and could only watch the excitement from the sidelines.
The crowd quickly surrounded the north gate of Xianyang City.
"Commander Yue, I, Han Xin, am innocent. Why should I be sent to the imperial prison?"
"Han Xin, you are guilty, that's all! His Majesty's edict has angered the officials. I, the Commandant, am acting in accordance with the imperial decree. Since you are not satisfied, then please produce His Majesty's edict. Otherwise, I, the Commandant, have no time to exonerate you!"
Le Cheng had a fierce look on his face and a very tough attitude.
It was as if only the law could shake him, and no power other than His Majesty could make him abandon his principles.
"Le Cheng, I want to see the Prime Minister. After I see the Prime Minister, I will go to the Imperial Prison with you!"
"Hmph, how dare you! You say you want to see the Prime Minister, but do you think you can? Although the Prime Minister has recovered from his injuries, he is still recuperating in his residence. How could a traitor like you dare to disturb him!"
Le Cheng drew his bronze sword from his waist and pointed it at Han Xin. "Put down your weapons and come with me to the imperial prison. I will let bygones be bygones. Otherwise, your crimes will be punished more severely!"
"Lord Han, Lord Han, don't argue with this brute!"
"He's just a brute. Arguing with him will only put you at a disadvantage."
"Long Er, Long San, stop talking! I, Han Xin, refuse to believe it! Today I'll see who can stop me from seeing the Prime Minister!"
Han Xin raised his head.
His eyes were filled with boundless rage.
He gripped the sword even tighter. In his eyes, he hadn't committed so many crimes, so why should he be treated like this?
At this moment, he...
His politically naive nature was on full display.
"Hmph, naive. Do you think I, the Commandant, would really dare not? Do you think that just because you are the Prime Minister's top student, I, the Commandant, would dare not kill you? Do you think that the principles you uphold are necessarily legal? What you think is nothing more than a reason to make your crime even more serious—disrespecting your superior and resisting arrest!"
Le Cheng sneered and shouted to his men, "Charge! Capture Han Xin! If he dares to resist, kill him on the spot!"
"promise!"
"hateful!"
Han Xin gripped his sword tightly.
"Who among you dares to lay a hand on me? Aren't you afraid that I'll retaliate against you after I get out of prison?"
"Well, well, Han Xin, you've got guts! You actually dare to threaten us! How dare you! Guards, arrest Han Xin! I refuse to believe it! Daring to threaten me in front of so many people, you really have guts! Even if you haven't committed any crime, at this moment, you've already committed a heinous crime!"
The crowd rushed forward and bound Han Xin into the shape of a giant rice dumpling.
He wanted to rebel.
pity.
Although his martial prowess was high, it wasn't as outrageously high as Xiang Yu's.
It's only good for self-defense when traveling the martial arts world; it might even be useful against martial arts masters.
However, they were utterly helpless against these well-trained Qin troops.
"Young man, hurry to the Prime Minister's residence and ask to see the Prime Minister. Tell him that Han Xin has been imprisoned in the Imperial Prison!"
"ah?"
"Please, Zhang Liang will surely repay you handsomely in the future!"
"good!"
At this moment, Zhang Liang knew in his heart that Han Xin would definitely be arrested, as would all of them.
So, while Han Xin was arguing with him, he entrusted a simply dressed young man next to him to go to the Prime Minister's residence to inform the Prime Minister.
The Prime Minister's Residence.
Li Lin was sitting in the study reading a book.
Man Yin tidied the tea set, added tea and poured water.
His physical functions had almost fully recovered by this time. However, during his last battle with Manyin in the palace, the fight was so intense that he accidentally reopened his wound.
This almost led to all our efforts being wasted.
Fortunately, Xia Wuju's medical skills were superb, allowing him to sit and stand normally again within a month, and he even regained his ability to walk.
