Chapter 3: Phone Battery Level Drops Rapidly!
"Execute Zhao Gao, the Chief of the Imperial Carriage Office!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the air in the hall instantly dropped to freezing point.
Zhang Fan shrank his neck, feeling a cold wind blowing into his collar.
Zhao Gao, who was famous in history, is now a favorite of Qin Shi Huang!
Ying Zheng held his phone, his eyes flickering slightly. He neither immediately became angry nor agreed.
He raised his head and his gaze swept across the main hall.
The black-armored guards stood ramrod straight, while the eunuchs and palace maids bowed their heads.
"Everyone, step back!"
Ying Zheng's voice wasn't loud, but it was full of irresistible commands.
The guards immediately put away their weapons and prepared to retreat.
"Wait!"
Ying Zheng's gaze fell on Li Si.
"Li Si stays."
After saying that, Ying Zheng glanced at Zhang Fan on the ground and said, "You, stay here too."
"The rest of you, retreat three hundred paces outside the hall! Without my order, anyone who dares to approach the hall will be executed! Their entire family will be exterminated!"
"yes!"
The guards and eunuchs were startled, wondering what serious matter had occurred.
But no one dared to ask, and they quickly retreated.
"Boom!"
The heavy palace doors slowly closed.
Only three people remained in the empty hall.
Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng; Li Si, the Minister of Justice; and Zhang Fan, who was trembling with fear.
And that glowing Huawei phone.
Ying Zheng only held the phone up to his face again after confirming that he could no longer hear any sound outside.
His face was expressionless in the lamplight, but his voice was frighteningly deep.
"Alright, now only my trusted ministers and you, the messenger, are in this hall!"
Ying Zheng glanced at Li Si, who was hunched over and covered in sweat, then asked into his phone:
"Zhao Gao is my Chief of the Imperial Carriage Office. He is knowledgeable in law, diligent in his work, and has excellent handwriting. He is a capable minister."
"You say you'll help me, so why is your first act to kill those around me?"
Give me a reason.
"If the reasons aren't sufficient..."
A cold glint flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes. "I'll take this as you've come to sow discord!"
Beijing, conference room.
Zhu Feng breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Ying Zheng's words.
By dismissing everyone except Li Si, Ying Zheng had already believed him to a great extent.
And they knew that what was about to be said was a top secret.
"reason?"
Zhu Feng looked at the documents in his hand and said in a deep voice:
"Emperor Qin Shi Huang, you were right to keep Li Si. Now, let's talk about the first reason."
"This reason is related to your long-cherished desire for 'immortality'."
Ying Zheng's pupils contracted slightly.
Zhu Feng's voice came clearly from the phone:
"We can tell you definitively that the so-called 'elixir of immortality' offered by those alchemists is all fake!"
"They won't make you live forever; instead, they're a slow-acting poison that erodes your body!"
"And Zhao Gao is precisely the person who has been most zealous in recommending alchemists and promoting elixirs to you over the years!"
Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng's expression darkened, but he didn't completely believe it, merely letting out a cold snort:
"Nonsense! I can distinguish between truth and falsehood in the words of this sorcerer!"
"You think you can kill my most important minister based on just these words?"
"We don't need you to believe us!" Zhu Feng said calmly.
We only provide the verification method!
"You only need to find a rabbit, feed it the 'elixir of immortality,' and in three days you will know whether it is a 'miracle pill' or a 'poison.'"
Ying Zheng fell silent.
This method was simple and easy to implement, which made his doubts begin to sprout.
But he still felt that even if the elixir was fake, it didn't warrant death.
"Deceiving the emperor and committing treason certainly deserves death. But that's not enough!"
Ying Zheng's voice carried a hint of impatience, "What I want is a reason sufficient to kill him immediately, and one that no one dares to discuss!"
Zhu Feng seemed to have anticipated his response, and his voice suddenly turned serious.
"Very well! First Emperor, listen carefully!"
"Because in the original history, five years later, you passed away at Sand Dune Platform during your fifth eastern tour!"
Ying Zheng's pupils suddenly contracted!
"Right after your passing!"
"Zhao Gao, in league with Li Si, who is now kneeling at your feet, forged and altered your imperial edict!"
These words were spoken.
Li Si was completely stunned. He looked up abruptly, his face as white as paper.
I rely on!
Is this something I, the fuck, did?
Without a second thought, he frantically kowtowed, crying, "Your Majesty! I'm innocent! I've always been loyal to you, I would never dare!"
Ying Zheng didn't even look at him; he just stared intently at his phone, forcing out a single word through gritted teeth:
"Go on!"
Zhu Feng spoke rapidly, his voice filled with anger:
"They forged an imperial edict and forced your eldest son, Fusu, to his death!"
"They caused the death of General Meng Tian!"
"Then you will install your youngest son, Huhai, on the throne; he will become Qin Er Shi!"
"After that, Zhao Gao seized power alone, and in front of the entire court, he pointed at a deer and called it a horse, eliminating his political opponents!"
"Your other children were all killed by him through torture! Your entire bloodline was almost wiped out!"
"Your great Qin dynasty was ruined by this eunuch!"
"The First Emperor!"
"Is this reason enough to kill him?"
Dead silence.
The main hall was deathly silent.
Zhang Fan could hear his own heartbeat.
The commander is too fierce!
He glanced at Ying Zheng discreetly.
Ying Zheng's face was expressionless, but that silence was more terrifying than anger.
A long time passed.
Ying Zheng slowly turned his head and looked at Li Si, who was already terrified.
"Li Si!" Ying Zheng's voice was very soft.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty deserves to die! Your Majesty... Your Majesty would never dare!"
Li Si kowtowed incoherently, until his forehead was bleeding.
Although he is ambitious, he doesn't have the guts to do it now. He was terrified when he heard that he would do such a thing in the future.
Ying-Zheng ignored him and returned to his phone, his voice cold and devoid of any warmth.
This is the calm that comes from extreme anger.
Fusu is dead?
Did Zhao Gao call a deer a horse?
Was the Qin Dynasty's foundation destroyed by this eunuch?
Ying Zheng took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
A few seconds later, he suddenly opened his eyes, and the murderous intent in them almost became tangible!
"Well done! What a brilliant Zhao Gao!"
"What a magnificent... Dune Coup!"
Ying Zheng turned around abruptly, flicked his sleeves, and shouted:
"Li Si!"
"Your subject... Your subject is here!" Li Si replied, trembling.
"I will not concern myself with the future! If you want to live, serve me!"
"I'll give you half an hour!"
Ying Zheng picked up the Tai'a sword from the table, his murderous aura soaring to the heavens:
"Take the men from the Black Ice Guard and immediately surround the Zhongche Mansion!"
"Bring that eunuch Zhao Gao here!"
"I want to... interrogate him personally!!"
……
The call was temporarily paused.
Ying Zheng sent Li Si to arrest Zhao Gao, leaving only him and Zhang Fan in the main hall.
Taking advantage of this moment, Zhu Feng asked into the microphone:
"Zhang Fan, how are you doing now? Has the First Emperor given you any trouble?"
Zhang Fan looked at Ying Zheng, who was resting with his eyes closed on the throne, and replied softly, "Reporting to the commander, I am still alive. His Majesty is waiting for news."
"Okay!" Zhu Feng breathed a sigh of relief and immediately asked, "What other functions does the phone have? Take a closer look!"
"yes!"
Zhang Fan looked down at his phone.
"Reporting, sir! Cell phone signal is full, battery is at 100%, and it doesn't seem to be losing power!"
"I called the police as soon as I got here, I didn't look at anything else... Wait!"
Zhang Fan discovered several apps he had never seen before.
However, only one app can be clicked on; the others are grayed out!
The app that you can click on has the word "newbie" written on it.
I rely on?
I didn't download Cainiao either!
After entering the APP!
The interface is very simple, with only two large buttons.
【send】
【take over】
"Sir, I found a 'newbie' app with 'send' and 'receive' buttons. What is it?"
In the conference room, Zhu Feng and the experts were all stunned.
Send? Receive?
Zhu Feng immediately had an idea. He excitedly said, "Zhang Fan, why don't you try to send something over?"
"Find something small that can represent the Qin Dynasty!"
Zhang Fan looked up and his gaze fell on the bronze wine vessel on Ying Zheng's desk.
He swallowed hard, pointed to the wine cup, and asked Ying Zheng, "Your Majesty...may you be able to use that cup?"
Ying Zheng opened his eyes, glanced at him, and gave a faint "hmm".
Zhang Fan quickly stepped forward and picked up the bronze wine cup.
He went back to where he was, put the wine glass on the ground, pointed his phone at it, and tapped "send"!
hum!
A white light shone from the phone screen, enveloping the wine vessel.
The next second, the wine jug disappeared!
Ying Zheng's pupils suddenly contracted!
He only saw the white light flash and disappear, and the bronze wine vessel that had been placed on the ground was gone.
They just vanished into thin air!
It's as if it never existed!
miracle!
It's truly a miracle!
Even though Ying Zheng had seen many storms, he was still incredibly shocked at this moment!
Retrieve items remotely!
No, this is teleportation out of thin air!
This method is beyond his comprehension!
His gaze toward the phone in Zhang Fan's hand grew increasingly intense and filled with awe!
At that moment, Zhang Fan was anxiously shouting into his phone:
"Reporting, sir! The cup is gone! It's been teleported there!"
"But my phone battery... it dropped by 20% in a flash! Now it's only at 80%!"
