Chapter 796: Pretending to be Dead



"Hey, stop pretending. Do you really think we can't see? Hurry up and get up. What are you doing lying here?"

Those death row prisoners were very cunning. They still closed their eyes and pretended to be dead, as if they would not get up even if the world came to an end.

Seeing that the death row prisoners were still pretending to be dead, those people took out a dagger in their hand and cut off one of their thumbs with a swish.

The man could only scream in pain, but when he opened his eyes and looked at the scene, he swallowed the rest of the pain into his stomach.

Why.

If this incident disturbs His Majesty, I am afraid the death will be even more miserable than this.

"Why do you care about me now?"

"Big...Big Brother, I have had no grudges against you for the past few days. Why are you trying to harm me?"

"Now I'm offering you a job that could earn you a thousand taels of gold. Do it or not. If you do well, I'll naturally give you the money and protect you while you leave the city secretly. If you don't do well, you'll probably die a more miserable death."

That group of people were all death row prisoners. When they heard that they would not have to die and would get paid for the job, they were even more willing to do it. So he took out a few daggers and distributed them to several death row prisoners lying on the ground.

"Our master has given us an order. If you can tamper with the man fighting the tigers and let the tigers eat him, the money will naturally be given to you in full."

Although these people are good brothers in prison.

But in this kind of situation, there is no distinction between brothers or not. Their eyes are red with anger and they are secretly calculating in their hearts.

We are good brothers. When you get to the underworld, don’t mention my name. By the way, I’ll send you there safely!

Taking advantage of the situation, these people pretended to cough twice, stood up and walked over.

The man fighting with the tiger thought they had woken up and wanted to help him fight the tiger, but when he turned around, he saw that their eyes were red and there was something hidden in their hands.

"you!"

When he turned around, he found a knife stuck in his shoulder, and the man who was fighting with the tiger felt only pain.

Then he loosened his grip on the tiger's hair. He was in so much pain that he couldn't lift his entire hand. He never expected that this man was secretly harming him.

"What's the meaning."

He only asked in a low voice.

"What do you mean? If we kill you now, we will get a large sum of money and a chance to leave the city. I'm sorry, brother!"

Naturally, these people are all on death row.

It is not surprising that someone dies along the way.

However, when the dagger was about to pierce the man's heart, it was deflected by a long sword.

"It's my fate to die!"

Naturally, everyone didn't believe it and started to chase the man desperately.

They have been blinded by the thousand taels of gold. As long as they can kill him, they can not only leave the city, but also have no worries about how they spend the rest of their lives!

It would be a pity if such a talent was killed.

Zhao Xin sat in front of the audience, hesitating whether to save the emperor or not. The man next to him saw the emperor's dilemma and directly drew his sword from his bosom and put it in Zhao Xin's hand.

"Your Majesty, you can try. Besides, even if something unusual happens, we can still..."

Then he made a clicking gesture with his hand next to his neck.

Naturally, none of this escaped the eyes of the emperor standing beside him. Seeing Zhao Xin being so ruthless, he wondered who he might have murdered again.

Of course, no one is stupid, and no one asks about this matter, so they just take it easy.

The people below started fighting directly.

The people above have always been suspicious, so Qi Peng came over to ask.

"How did this go from a man-tiger fight to a man-man fight?"

They had seen that this was just a quarrel between people and wanted to see a different outcome, but they disrupted the situation halfway.

"What's the matter? Human hearts are no scarier than this tiger. You're the only one who talks too much. Sit back and watch carefully, or I'll snap you to pieces, believe it or not."

Naturally, the relationship between the two is unusual, and they can both accept an occasional joke.

But after hearing this...can the emperor, who doesn't know the truth, accept it?

The emperor sitting next to Zhao Xin was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat, while the guard next to him tightly grasped his sword.

If the Emperor of Qin hurt his master, he would have no choice but to draw his sword and fight him.

"how?"

"I can't do it, otherwise it will easily hurt the harmony."

"In that case, Your Majesty, if you won't take action, then I will."

"go."

This conversation alone scared the person next to him so much that he frowned deeply. He suddenly felt that he should not have come to the Qin Dynasty to watch the annual battle between humans and beasts. He wondered what the emperor wanted to do this year.

"Eat, why not eat?"

Zhao Xin just raised his eyes and felt the burning gaze on him, but when he looked at the opposite side, he found that the person's gaze was almost evasive and even accompanied by a few coughs.

"Um, Your Majesty..."

"Eat whatever you want. We are all allies and I won't poison you."

After hearing this, the emperor of the small country beside him swallowed his saliva twice. There was no way he could continue to live under Zhao Xin's protection. Although he sent Zhao Xin gifts every year.

But to be honest, there is nothing valuable in my small place.

Could it be that the emperor was planning to secretly kill him because he didn't have much money and couldn't afford to offer him good sacrifices?

This time he chose the most remote place to sit, but he didn't expect the emperor to follow him directly. Could it be that he was targeting him?

"What are you looking at? If you don't like the food, I'll send someone to get you another one. We're allies, so just enjoy your meal. If you find it a bit bloody... you can have some dessert after dinner."

Gudong——

Looking at this scene, I wonder how the emperors managed to swallow their food.

Anyway, I can't eat this meal every year. I finally chose a remote place this year. I didn't expect that this time would be different from previous years. The emperor even followed me.

My wish to put the leftovers in the bag I had originally prepared was dashed.

The man opened his mouth but didn't speak.

Zhao Xin thought he was not satisfied with the meal, so he asked the eunuch to replace it with some fruit.

The man's expression became even uglier.

I don’t know what this person was thinking. I just wanted some light fruit, so at least give me some.

Unexpectedly, he was given two dragon fruits directly.

“…”

"Change."

Before the eunuch could speak, Zhao Xin took over.

He finally came out. This guy was mainly disgusted by this thing, so he wanted to take it slow.

"Then your majesty will change?"

"Ginseng fruit."

"good."

The Qin territory has everything. To be honest, you can get whatever you want to eat. Moreover, the territory is vast and rich in resources. Most of the places either surrender or cooperate with it.

Of course, there are also many who refuse to cooperate.

Most of them keep to themselves.

Or to say, to fight for disaster during internal strife.
