Zhangtai Palace
The words Ran Fang and Zhang Liang said were naturally sent to Ying Zheng.
Although their conversation was very simple and did not say that the person Bolangsha ambushed was Zhang Liang in front of him, it was enough to shock Ying Zheng.
In Xianyang City, someone actually wants to take his own life!
So what if you are talented?
If he cannot be used for his own purposes, no matter who he is, he will not stay.
After all, how can anyone be allowed to snore on the side of the bed?
"Zhao Gao, declare Meng Yi into the palace immediately!"
Although Ying Zheng is wary of Zhao Gao now, he still lets Zhao Gao serve as the person serving around him for the time being.
However, Zhao Gao cannot intervene in many things.
Just like now, he was standing under the high platform and couldn't see what was written on Ying Zheng's desk. Naturally, he didn't know what he was calling Meng Yi now.
But he could feel Ying Zheng's anger, so he didn't dare to say anything. He lowered his head and said "Here" and went out immediately.
Walking to the entrance of the palace, Zhao Gao whispered to a eunuch: "Xuan Mengyi enters the palace."
"Here."
After saying that, the eunuch ran out immediately.
Zhao Gao waved to another eunuch and whispered: "Tell Li Si, His Majesty summoned Meng Yi, and he doesn't seem to be in a good mood!"
"Here."
After doing these things, he stood back in the middle of the hall as if nothing had happened.
After a while, Meng Yi strode towards Zhangtai Palace wearing a court uniform.
Standing in the main hall, he respectfully saluted Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, Meng Yi, is here to see you."
The anger on Ying Zheng's face had not subsided. He waved his hand to Zhao Gao: "Everyone, stand down."
Hearing this, a flash of hesitation suddenly flashed across Zhao Gao's face, but he still respectfully saluted Ying Zheng before slowly exiting Zhangtai Palace.
After coming out, he also had doubts in his heart. He didn't expect that His Majesty would have to be wary of him now.
Even when discussing matters with the minister, he has to go behind his back. What should he do?
If he really didn't have His Majesty's trust, how could he be as comfortable in this court as he was before?
Thinking about it, he stood a little closer to the door, trying to hear what was said inside, but unfortunately he heard nothing.
At this time, in the Zhangtai Palace, after watching Zhao Gao and others retreat, Meng Yi felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart. His Majesty definitely had something important to tell him.
He immediately stood up straight and looked at Ying Zheng firmly.
Seeing how determined he was, it made the anger in Ying Zheng's heart go away a lot.
"Are there any clues about Bolangsha's assassination?"
These sudden words made Meng Yi a little stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.
He was by Ying Zheng's side when Bolangsha assassinated him, and he actually caused His Majesty to suffer such a disturbance. He almost died to apologize.
Regarding those assassins, he wanted to catch them all and cut them into pieces!
Therefore, after returning from Bolangsha, he has been pursuing this matter, but there is no clue at all.
Later, he studied paper and movable type printing, and he focused all his energy on this.
Now that both of these things had been successful, their production was left to the Shaofu, who was ready to do other things.
Before he could continue to track down the assassin, he was suddenly asked by His Majesty. His face turned red and he did not dare to raise his head.
"Your Majesty, I am reporting to you that I am not doing my job well."
"I have been investigating day and night, but there are no clues. The assassins seem to have suddenly appeared."
"I am guilty, please punish me!"
With that said, he knelt on the ground, waiting for Ying Zheng's punishment.
But he didn't wait for Ying Zheng's rebuke. He also heard Ying Zheng ask patiently: "Have you ever investigated this city in Xianyang?"
Xianyang City?
Meng Yi looked at Ying Zheng on the high platform in confusion. He had never thought about this problem.
Xianyang City is completely under the Qin Dynasty. These ministers and the people in the city are basically people from the old Qin Dynasty. How could there be assassins?
Moreover, Da Qin has a household registration system. If an assassin really wanted to sneak in, it would be absolutely impossible.
But since His Majesty asked, he would still answer truthfully.
"Your Majesty, there is a lieutenant army in Xianyang City, and there will definitely be no assassins sneaking in."
"Everyone in the city has been registered, and nothing suspicious has been found."
Ying Zheng frowned slightly. He didn't expect Meng Yi to answer so firmly. He heard what he meant and had never personally investigated the matter.
Just based on years of experience, it was determined that no assassin would sneak into Xianyang City.
How to explain that ovary? !
He was so disappointed.
"Today in Xianyang Prison, a man named Zhang Zifang went to see Ran Fang. When he saw him, he recognized him as a person from the old Han Dynasty!"
"This time I sneaked into Xianyang, just for me!"
As soon as these words came out, Meng Yi's eyes flashed with panic and a little fear.
He didn't expect the assassin to be so rampant, dare to break into Xianyang directly, and even visit Ran Fang in prison. Is this just a moth flying into the flame?
This thought only flashed through my mind for a moment. The most important thing now is that the assassin has entered Xianyang City, and he is so stupid that he doesn't know anything!
You were so arrogant just now!
He lowered his head and knelt on the ground, his whole body lying down.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me."
"My neglect of duty actually allowed assassins to sneak into Xianyang City!"
Ying Zheng frowned and looked at Meng Yi kneeling on the ground, feeling uncontrollably disappointed in his heart.
This disappointment is not for Meng Yi, but for the entire ministers and guards of Xianyang City.
Because of the household registration system, some people are much more lax in terms of management. They think that these laws and regulations are foolproof, so they don't think of personally supervising and investigating.
This is the thought of all officials in Da Qin. They do not think that their actions are wrong, and they are even complacent about their political achievements.
If things continue like this, the ministers in the court will definitely be lazy and miss the mark, which is not a good thing for Great Qin.
"Go and investigate that ovary and see who he is?"
"And his hiding place in Xianyang City must be found out clearly! And is the Bolangsha incident related to him?"
"After finding out, arrest this person immediately. If there is resistance, we will not care about life or death!"
Hearing this, Meng Yi felt happy. His Majesty did not punish him and gave him a chance to redeem his merits.
In this case, he must catch Zhang Zifang!
"Here!"
"I accept the decree and will definitely live up to His Majesty's expectations!"
He already had clues. If he couldn't catch anyone, he would really have to die to apologize.
Ying Zheng glanced at Meng Yi, but felt a little worried about this matter.
Ran Fang also said that this person has the talent of a general. If Ran Fang found out his identity in Xianyang Prison today, he would definitely not wait there to be arrested.
I'm afraid it's no longer where it was, and it will take a lot of effort to catch it.
Thinking of this, he told Meng Yi: "Ran Fang is quite familiar with this person. If you have any questions, you can go to Xianyang Prison and ask Ran Fang about how to catch this person."
Meng Yi was very disdainful in his heart. Now that he had a name and had been to Xianyang Prison, he could find out where he was hiding through a casual investigation.
If this is the case, we still need to ask Ran Fang, how could he be able to become a minister?
But since His Majesty said so, he still respectfully said to Ying Zheng: "Here!"
After saying that, after making sure that Ying Zheng had no more orders, he stood up and left Zhangtai Palace.
Looking at his leaving figure, Zhao Gao had some guesses in his mind. Meng Yi left so quickly, so it must be something important.
I just don’t know what the important thing is?
