With her own temperament alone, Daji had already firmly suppressed Nie Yinniang and Jing Ke.
They felt a deep sense of oppression from her and were quite nervous.
Is this the weight of the current queen mother?
Jing Ke was secretly shocked.
However, a woman like this was willing to serve Ying Yuan.
It's incredible.
How could a tyrant ruler control such a woman?
Just as Jing Ke and Nie Yinniang were quite surprised, Daji's indifferent voice rang out in their ears:
"Who ordered you to kill His Majesty? I don't believe that two jianghu people would dare to kill the emperor."
What does it mean to kill the emperor?
To put it bluntly, in this era.
The act of killing the emperor is like digging up one's own ancestral grave.
“No one is instructing me.”
Jing Ke responded indifferently.
Since the assassination attempt on the emperor has failed.
Then, if there are any sins, he and Nie Yinniang will bear them together.
If that person is affected, I'm afraid that the Qin Dynasty will be truly beyond salvation.
Daji nodded and continued to ask: "Why did you want to assassinate His Majesty?"
Nie Yinniang was about to speak when she remembered what had just happened and hesitated for a moment.
Jing Ke said in a deep voice, “Since he ascended the throne, he has been obsessed with women and pleasure, which has led to treacherous ministers in power and instability in the country.
Half of the country fell into the hands of the enemy, and the people were suffering terribly. An emperor like this could only plunge the Qin Dynasty into the abyss."
Hearing this, Daji didn't get angry. She just said calmly, "Is that really the case? Isn't there any personal grudge or conspiracy behind this?"
"I don't understand what you are saying." Jing Ke frowned slightly.
Daji knew that she could not get the answer she wanted from the other party, so she decided to get up and leave.
Before leaving, she suddenly stopped and said indifferently:
"You are alive not because you are worthy of living in this world, but because His Majesty does not want to kill you.
Your Majesty is the only one in the world who can save the Qin State."
Then she left without looking back.
Only Jing Ke and Nie Yinniang were left standing there in a daze.
Only that tyrant can save the Qin State?
Is he serious?
......
Morning next day.
Daji personally helped Ying Yuan undress.
As he was about to go to the imperial court, he thought of Jing Ke and Nie Yinniang and instructed Zhao Gao, "Bring them to the imperial court and have them stand beside me."
Hearing this, the latter was greatly surprised. Although he had doubts, he did not dare to disobey the imperial order.
They had no choice but to bring the two of them to Ying Yuan and go to the court together with His Majesty the Emperor.
They were both extremely confused about this.
I don't understand what this tyrant wants to do.
At this time, Ying Yuan said to them, "If you get the chance during the morning court later, you can kill me. Go ahead.
Killing me in front of all the civil and military officials would also give me a greater sense of accomplishment, don't you think?"
Hear the sound.
Jing Ke and Nie Yinniang looked at each other.
Ying Yuan's various outrageous actions really confused them completely.
Could it be that he just felt that the two of them couldn't kill him?
Is that why you think you are so confident?
So infuriating.
......
In the palace.
Ying Yuan sat high on the throne.
Enjoying the kneeling worship of civil and military officials.
Then someone started a conversation and asked him if he had encountered any danger when he was assassinated yesterday.
Jing Ke and Nie Yinniang immediately lowered their heads.
Ying Yuan smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, my dear ministers. I am fine."
At this time, Cai Jing, Qin Hui and others noticed Jing Ke and the other man standing beside the emperor.
They all frowned.
When the two men assassinated the emperor, they were seen by many subordinates sent by ministers to Zuixianju.
And also drew a portrait.
Therefore, they were able to recognize at the first moment that the two people were the ones who assassinated the emperor.
However, at this moment, the two of them were standing beside the emperor openly.
Moreover, it seems that he has not received any punishment yet.
This is a bit confusing.
Is it really as Prime Minister Qin Hui guessed?
Is everything directed and acted by Your Majesty himself?
Thinking of this, all the ministers were silent.
Your Majesty's imperial scheming has reached perfection.
Before this, I thought that this emperor was such a capable, resourceful and broad-minded one, but he was a tyrant.
It's really ridiculous.
"If you have something to report, report it early. If you don't, leave the court!"
Following Zhao Gao's loud shout.
In the entire hall, all the civil and military officials fell into silence.
Seeing this, Ying Yuan smiled and said, "It seems that you are all fine. Since you are all fine, I have something to talk about."
As soon as the words fell.
Cai Jing took a half step forward, bowed deeply, and said, "Your Majesty, I am all ears."
Then he knelt on the ground.
The ministers followed suit one after another.
Ying Yuan nodded, ordered Zhao Gao to bring a memorial, and placed a brazier in front of him. He said, "Do you know what is written on this memorial?"
The ministers looked at each other, not knowing what the emperor meant.
Ying Yuan continued, "I'm sure you're all well aware of the East Factory's arrest yesterday. And this memorial is densely packed with names, implicating any of you.
Wei Zhongxian, the governor of the East Factory, wrote this memorial after an overnight investigation. The memorial involved countless cases of corruption, bribery, and abuse of personal power.
