"Reporting to Your Majesty, it is still under review."
Zhao Gan's body trembled slightly, then he bowed and answered respectfully.
"How many days have passed?"
Qin Huang asked in a calm voice with an expressionless face.
"It's been two days since I... returned to Your Majesty."
Cold sweat broke out on Zhao Gan's forehead.
A trace of displeasure flashed in Emperor Qin's eyes, and he was about to speak, but was suddenly interrupted by the sound of footsteps outside the palace.
He looked up and saw a guard in front of the palace walking in cautiously.
"Your Majesty, Yongxiang ordered Zhang Rang to ask for an audience."
"Let him in."
Qin Huang ordered softly.
"promise."
The guards in front of the palace turned and left.
Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged eunuch walked in with a hurried expression.
"My servant pays homage to the Emperor."
"Get up, why do you want to see me?"
Emperor Qin asked aloud.
Zhang Rang stood up, bent down and said, "Your Majesty, the eunuch who assassinated the eighth prince has been found, but... but..."
As he spoke, there was a hint of panic on his face, and he added: "This man has hit a pillar and died."
"Haha, he hit a pillar and died. The people under Yong Xiang's command are really capable."
When Emperor Qin heard this, there was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
"I...I deserve to be punished, Your Majesty."
Zhang Rang's face changed drastically, his eyes showed fear, he immediately knelt on the ground and trembled in a low voice.
A cold light flashed in Emperor Qin's eyes: "Hmph, what is the position of this eunuch?"
"It was the eunuch of Naodenji Temple. He was killed on the spot when he found out what happened."
"You mean, you didn't ask anything?"
Qin Huang's voice became colder and colder.
"Yes Yes……"
Zhang Rang lowered his head and replied with a trembling voice.
"How many years has this person been in the palace? Does he have any relatives?"
"This person has been in the palace for seven years and has no relatives."
When Emperor Qin heard this, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, and he said nothing for a long time.
The hall suddenly fell into silence.
You can hear the needle drop!
After a long time, Emperor Qin spoke again: "Execute all the eunuchs who were friends with him in the past."
Zhang Rang's body trembled and he quickly responded: "Yes, Your Majesty."
"Everyone, go down."
"promise."
Zhao Gan and Zhang Rang quickly bowed and retreated.
Emperor Qin was the only one left in the main hall.
From his condensed face, it could be seen that he was in a very bad mood at this time.
Those who could carry out such a vicious attack in the palace were just those few people.
No matter which one it was, it made his heart feel like a knife.
Will that tragedy happen again?
Time passed. In the past few days, Qin Heng lay on the bed and read a lot of books.
Mainly, it is about the situation of some countries in the world, as well as some records of the Qin Dynasty.
In the Poison Hall, Qin Heng was sitting on the main seat, talking with Chen Ping and others.
“At present, apart from the Xiongnu in the north and the countries in the Western Regions, the Three Kingdoms are standing together.
"Great Qin is located in the east, with thirty-eight counties and half a million soldiers."
"To the west is the Great Jin, with thirty counties and four hundred thousand soldiers."
"The south is Daqian, with a total of forty-six counties and 600,000 soldiers."
Qin Heng looked at them and slowly introduced them.
"So, this place is much bigger than the previous life?"
Jia Xu said with a thoughtful look on his face.
"What Wen He said is true. According to the records, it is much bigger than the previous life."
Qin Heng nodded.
"Haha, this is a bit like the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu in the previous life."
Cheng Yu said with a hint of nostalgia.
"Well, among the three countries, Da Qin has the strongest soldiers, Da Jin is rich in grain, and Da Qian is the richest." Qin Heng added.
"Looking at it this way, Da Qin used the system of three ministers and nine ministers."
"Mancang is right. The Qin Dynasty has been using the three-gong-nine-qing system for two hundred years since its founding."
Qin Heng nodded slightly.
"Haha, there are advantages and disadvantages to the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers. The imperial power is weakened and the Prime Minister's weight is lost. I am afraid that your Majesty is helpless now." Chen Ping looked gloating.
"The current prince is the grandson of the prime minister. If His Majesty wants to change the status quo, he will definitely have Yi Chu's thoughts." Jia Xu added.
"How do you say this?" Qin Heng's heart moved and he asked curiously.
"The Prime Minister is already a highly respected minister. If the next emperor is his grandson, do you think His Majesty can feel at ease?" Jia Xu said meaningfully.
When Qin Heng heard this, a light suddenly flashed in his eyes.
If this is the case, the imperial power will be even weaker.
As an emperor, he naturally does not want to see such a situation.
"This may be the reason why so many princes have not yet had their heirs taken away, so this is also an opportunity for the lord."
Cheng Yu analyzed with a sly smile.
"Oh, seizing a legitimate son is not something that can be accomplished in a day. Now, wait for the lord to recover from his injuries and move out of the palace first before making any plans."
"Yes, what Wen You said makes sense. My lord, it's better to leave this prison in the palace first."
"Well, it should be so."
Qin Heng could clearly hear what they said to each other.
The most urgent task is to move out of the palace.
It seems that I need to think carefully about how to speak to my mother and concubine.
In the room, Qin Heng opened his eyes and rubbed his tired brows.
"Oh, when will these days of lying flat end!"
He now felt that his upper body was about to lose consciousness.
My whole body is weak and my head is dizzy!
"The Emperor has arrived."
"Mrs. Liu is here."
Suddenly, there was an announcement outside the door.
Qin Heng was stunned, hurriedly made the bed, lay down on the bed obediently, and then stared at the ceiling blankly.
With a creak, the door opened.
"Heng'er, have you been feeling better these days?" The voice came before the person arrived.
Qin Heng turned his head with dull eyes.
Emperor Qin strode over with Liu Yu.
"My son, I pay homage to my father, and I pay homage to my mother and concubine."
"Heng'er, why are you looking so pale? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Liu Yu quickly stepped forward and asked with concern.
"What's wrong with you, Heng'er?"
"Send it to the imperial doctor quickly."
Emperor Qin also looked worried and shouted quickly.
"No need, Father, I'm fine."
Qin Heng smiled sadly and shook his head slowly.
"this……"
Seeing him like this, Qin Huang and the other two men were immediately heartbroken.
"Heng'er, look what your father has brought to you."
Qin Huang quickly changed the topic and turned away.
Qin Heng tilted his head and looked at it.
For a moment, he froze.
An exquisite wheelchair covered with flower carvings comes into view.
Overall porcelain white, full of texture.
It looks like a work of art.
He dared to say that if this wheelchair were to be passed down to future generations, it would definitely be a small goal.
"Like it?"
Emperor Qin turned his head and asked.
Qin Heng looked away and nodded: "I like it."
"My son, I would like to thank my father."
To be honest, regarding this wheelchair and the broken leg thing, it seems...
Not so uncomfortable anymore.
"Haha, just like it." Emperor Qin felt relieved when he saw that he liked it.
"Heng'er, sit on it and give it a try." Liu Yu suggested, standing nearby.
She could tell that her son was already unable to bear the pain of lying in bed all day.
She desperately hoped to take Qin Heng out for a walk.
"Okay, concubine." Qin Heng nodded, looking forward to it.
"Father, I will carry you down." Emperor Qin smiled and walked forward and picked you up gently.
As he left the bed, Qin Heng felt slightly embarrassed and couldn't help but glance away.
