Tian Cheng held the token in his hand and made a prostrate posture.
At this time, Chen Ke on the side was already dumbfounded.
Ying Zheng seemed a little calmer. He took the token from Tian Cheng's hand casually, with a somewhat complicated look in his eyes.
"I never thought that you would have such thoughts."
Ying Zheng smiled and shook his head, then looked at Tian Cheng and said, "Since you said so, I believe you."
"Just don't betray my trust."
Tian Cheng waited until Ying Zheng took the token away before he raised his head, his expression full of emotion.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
He said righteously: "Your Majesty, I would like to report to Qi County officials who have passed by Qi State."
"These people gathered together and discussed how to rebel against His Majesty and Qin all day long."
Tian Cheng had a heartbroken look on his face.
"For the sake of this token, I have made false sacrifices with them, and I am in panic all day long."
"Today, since the token has been handed over to His Majesty, I can impeach them with confidence and boldness."
Tian Cheng paid homage again: "I sincerely request your Majesty to issue an order to arrest those traitors!"
"Listen with a straight face!"
Ying Zheng looked at Tian Cheng with a sincere face and chuckled.
He did not answer Tian Cheng's words, but glanced at Chen Ke who was sitting there: "Chen Ke, what do you think?"
Chen Ke touched his chin and came back to his senses.
There is no record of this incident in history, but it did not happen beyond Chen Ke's expectation.
This is normal.
After all the previous plans of Confucianism were ruined, it is normal for Qi Hou here in Qijun not to want to continue on a bad ship.
"Your Majesty, I think His Highness Qihou is right."
Chen Ke looked at Qi Hou, a pair of dark eyes flashing with starlight.
His eyes were as calm as well water.
"Now that His Highness Qihou has obtained what he wanted, he has also reported on the traitors."
"The imperial court will naturally arrest those traitors in order to set the record straight."
Chen Ke had a smile on his face, but his voice became colder and colder.
"Otherwise, wouldn't it mean that Da Qin can be bullied?"
Ying Zheng nodded slightly, looked at Qi Hou and said, "In that case, Qi Hou will obey the order."
Tian Cheng saluted and waited for Ying Zheng's order.
"I order Meng Tian to assist you and take your lead in capturing the traitors."
"Anyone who blocks it during this period will be killed without mercy!"
Words full of murderous intent echoed in the hall, and Tian Chengqing accepted the order.
"I obey the decree."
After Tian Cheng left, Ying Zheng looked at Chen Ke and said, "Chen Ke, why do you think he suddenly defected to me?"
A look that looked like a smile but not a smile flashed across Ying Zheng's face, and he didn't seem to believe Tian Cheng's sincerity at all.
In his hand, he was playing with the token that represented Qi's final power.
There is a very conspicuous word engraved on it.
"field"
Compared to Ying Zheng's suspicion, Chen Ke was relatively calm.
"Your Majesty, I feel that there are traces for him to seek refuge with Your Majesty."
"Now the Confucian affairs in Kuaiji County have been exposed, and Xiang Liu has even been arrested."
"He is escorting him and chasing us."
"The plans of Zhao Gao and others were also resolved one by one, and there was even the existence of "paper" and "printing". "
"This Marquis Qi is also smart."
"I'm afraid I know that the boat is about to capsize, so I'll try another boat."
Ying Zheng looked at the token in his hand, smiled and nodded.
He didn't care much about this thing.
"This thing will be handed over to Dunruo later to check to see if it is true."
Ying Zheng yawned and pressed his forehead.
"By the way, Chen Ke, when will your senior brother come?"
"I really want to see what your cunning senior brother will look like."
Chen Ke smiled and looked at Ying Zheng and said, "Your Majesty, didn't you send an order to ask Senior Brother to see him tomorrow?"
Chen Ke had a headache when talking about this matter.
"Your Majesty, have the few people we brought with us discussed the specific etiquette of the Zen ceremony?"
Ying Zheng shook his head slightly: "Not yet."
"Li Si said that these etiquettes are difficult to find out for a long time, and all that can be found now are just fragments of words."
"He is discussing with those old guys to see if they can come up with a set of proper etiquette."
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
Having said this, Ying Zheng still felt a little unhappy.
"According to what I said, there is nothing etiquette or impoliteness."
"I am the first person to be granted Zen status at Mount Tai, and I am also the first emperor."
"What I say and what I do is etiquette."
"The etiquette of my conferring Zen on Mount Tai must be observed by everyone in the world and the kings of future generations."
"In that case, why bother reading allusions all the time?"
Chen Ke chuckled and said nothing, just listening to Ying Zheng's complaints.

in a courtyard
Wang Kan had a confused look on his face. He just heard the voice of the boy next to Qi Hou and opened the door.
Who would have thought that not only Qi Qi but also a line of soldiers would come in!
At first glance, he looks like an elite soldier!
After the soldiers lined up, Tian Cheng and Meng Tian walked in from the door with calm expressions on their faces.
It's hard to see and look closely...
What's happening here?
Before Wang Kan could ask questions, Tian Cheng in front of him shouted coldly: "Bold Wang Kan!"
"You are so rude when you see General Meng?"
Wang Kan looked confused. Before he could even greet him, the person who had just entered the yard to search had already walked out.
"General Qi, Your Highness."
"This object was found in the thief's house, which can prove that the thief has a rebellious intention!"
The soldier respectfully held the object in his hand over his head with a respectful look on his face.
Tian Cheng took those things from his hands, sighed, and handed them directly to Meng Tian.
"General Meng, it seems that what I said is correct."
"This thief really has a rebellious intention."
Meng Tian looked at the evidence and found that there was no problem. He waved his hand and said, "Arrest him."
"take away!"
Before Wang Kan could say a word, he was already detained by soldiers and walked out.
At this time, he seemed to have finally come to his senses, and turned his head to look at Tian Cheng standing there with a look of disbelief.
"Your Highness? Your Highness?!"
Wang Kan's voice was harsh and a little sharp.
"Why is your Highness like this?"
"Has Your Highness forgotten the hatred of the country and the family? Has His Highness forgotten our country, Qi?"
Wang Kan was crying blood, and his whole body was in a state of collapse.
He asked in an extremely incredible tone: "I wholeheartedly seek the country for Your Highness, why does Your Highness commit treason against the country?!"
“Why is this happening??!
"
Wang Kan's voice was extremely shrill, but it was getting farther and farther away, and he was already being escorted out.
Tian Cheng seemed to have not heard anything and just stood there, looking at Wang Kan's back calmly.
After a moment, he turned his head, looked at Meng Tian and smiled slightly.
"General Meng, there is another family."
"Let's go."
"Lest they run away."
Meng Tian also looked at Tian Cheng with a strange look, but his expression did not change at all.
He just said calmly: "Okay."
...........
in jail
Wang Kan still can't believe what happened to him in the past half day.
Just now, the token representing the last strength of the Qi State was handed over to the Marquis of Qi. Did the Marquis of Qi lead Qin's soldiers to arrest him?
Are you still accusing yourself of treason?
At this time, figures walked in one by one.
Wang Kan looked over and saw that they were all old ministers who had gone to Qi State. They were all ministers who cherished their homeland and had contacted him about returning to the country!
Behind these people was Qihou Tian Cheng.
Tian Cheng stood in the prison gate, looking at this group of people and listening to their abuse, his expression unchanged.
He chuckled.
"Everyone, don't blame me for being cruel. Who makes you still have your motherland in your heart?"
Tian Cheng's expression changed from calm to vicious.
He looked around at the crowd.
Everyone looked at Tian Cheng's expression and felt a chill in their hearts, as if they had seen a scorpion lurking in the dark.
Wang Kan stood up tremblingly. He stood there and looked at Tian Cheng and said.
"Your Highness Qihou, do you really have no intention of restoring the country?"
Tian Cheng did not hesitate and did not dare to have any hesitation.
"of course not!"
Wang Kan looked at Tian Cheng and continued to ask: "Then, have you been making excuses with me for so many years?"
Tian Cheng nodded: "Not bad."
"You are discussing rebellion and revenge. I have long wanted to execute you on the spot!"
"It's just a pity that you have a group of Qi traitors hiding in your hands."
"So I'm going to deceive you out of your hands. After I deceive you, I'll capture you and bring you back to prison!"
Wang Kan stood there, looking tired, as if his faith had collapsed.
Tian Cheng sneered: "I am the Marquis of Qi in the Qin Dynasty. Just wait and wait for His Majesty to deal with it!"
Saying that, he turned around and left.
Wang Kan stood in the shadows, frustrated.
"Qihou? Qihou!"
Wang Kan shouted sternly, and then slammed his head against the wall!
Blood spattered on the wall, and the red blood stained the dark wall.
Outside the prison
Tian Cheng felt the sunshine outside the prison, with a calm look on his face.
If they don't die, they themselves will die.
From the beginning to the end, he never thought about revenge. He just wanted to live, peacefully and safely.
There is nothing important except life and death.
........
In the palace
Meng Tian's voice was calm: "Your Majesty, I have captured all the traitors and brought them to prison."
"Qi Hou said that apart from these people, the Tian family in Qi County does not seem to be very peaceful."
"It seems that I want to attack His Majesty when His Majesty is enshrined in Mount Tai."
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows, and a cold smile flashed across his face.
"Do something against me?"
"In all these years, I have never met anyone who directly wanted to attack me."
He looked at Li Si and Chen Ke beside him and said: "Arrange for Mount Tai to be enshrined as soon as possible. I would like to see how Tian wants to attack me."
Li Si looked a little embarrassed: "Your Majesty, I have made arrangements as soon as possible."
"But those etiquette are too cumbersome."
He thought for a moment and then said: "Otherwise, let Mr. Chen come to help the minister?"
Um?
Ying Zheng became somewhat interested.
He turned his head and looked at Chen Ke, with a flash of amusement on his face.
"Chen Ke, what did you say?"
