Qilin Hall.
A man in a black black bird robe sat in front of the desk, the bead curtain dropped to cover his eyes, and his bony hands turned over the memorial.
He is the master of this empire, Ying Zheng.
He has to review one hundred and twenty kilograms of memorials every day and deal with countless national affairs. He has been doing this for many years.
Zhao Gao, the commander of the CRRC Mansion, was waiting respectfully at the side.
The hall was very quiet, only the sound of memorials being turned was heard.
A eunuch walked to the door, but did not dare to disturb him. He glanced at Zhao Gao, and Zhao Gao quietly retreated.
Soon, Zhao Gao returned to the palace with a nervous look, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu wishes to see you."
Ying Zheng's eyes were still on the memorial, and his voice was extremely majestic, "You forgot the rules I set down so quickly?"
Zhao Gao's body trembled slightly. Ying Zheng set a rule that no one was allowed to disturb him during the review of the memorial. This rule has never been broken in ten years.
Not to mention disturbing, even Zhao Gao, who was always by Ying Zheng's side, did not dare to make any noise and kept the hall absolutely quiet.
But now the matter was so important that Zhao Gao did not dare not to report it, so he had to hand over his hand and said: "I don't dare, it's just about the emperor's heir, I don't dare to delay."
Ying Zheng's eyes moved slightly, "Emperor's heir?"
The imperial heir involves the entire Great Qin Royal Family, and even small matters need to be handled with caution, otherwise if word spreads, it will have a great impact on the Great Qin Royal Family.
After pondering for a moment, Ying Zheng ordered: "Accurate!"
Concubine Shu slowly walked into the palace, her steps a little frivolous.
She was wearing a long white dress, with soft black hair hanging down around her waist. Her cheeks were slightly pale, and her spring-like eyes were a little red and swollen, just like a tortured flower.
Concubine Shu was weak and her voice was weak, "I, I have seen your Majesty!"
Concubine Shu was a well-educated noblewoman before she entered the palace. She followed Ying Zheng before he unified the six kingdoms and stayed with him until the end. She never wavered even when Ying Zheng was in danger several times.
Not only that, Ying Zheng was able to unify the six countries, and Concubine Shu and her mother's family also helped a lot.
Although Ying Zheng did not summon her many times, she had an excellent impression of this concubine.
This is one of the reasons why Zhao Gao didn't dare to neglect just now.
Ying Zheng looked up and was a little surprised to see Shu Shuang's appearance, "Why do you look like this?"
Concubine Shu's eyes were cold and she said: "Your Majesty, please make the decision for me. Someone in the palace wants to replace my son with a civet cat!"
Ying Zheng's eyes darkened.
A civet cat for a prince?
Is there such a ridiculous thing happening in the palace?
If this spreads out, it will definitely be a huge joke, enough to disgrace the entire Da Qin royal family.
Zhao Gao's expression also changed suddenly.
What kind of big melon did you eat?
You won't be silenced for this, right?
Ying Zheng's voice suddenly turned cold, "What's going on?"
Concubine Shu's eyes turned cold, "Bring her up!"
Two eunuchs and Chunxia were brought up, and a dead civet cat was also placed nearby.
Seeing Ying Zheng, the three of them lost their legs and knelt on the ground begging for mercy, "Your Majesty, have mercy on me!"
"Your Majesty, spare your life!"
"Your Majesty, please spare my life!"
Concubine Shu stared at the few people with cold eyes, "These slaves are actually trying to exchange this dead civet cat for Yu'er. If I hadn't found out, I'm afraid..."
As she spoke, the chill around Concubine Shu grew stronger.
Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng's cold eyes fell on a few people, "Who are you instructing?"
Chun Xia's face froze, and her head hit the ground hard, "This slave only did such a wrong thing because she was dizzy for a moment. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
The words of the two eunuchs were also very different. They both said that there was no one to instruct them and they wanted to bear the responsibility of the crime alone.
Ying Zheng snorted coldly, "No one ordered you? Do you want to say that you don't want to live anymore, so you did such a ridiculous thing?"
His eyes fell on a few people, and the emperor's pressure was like a boulder pressing on the three of them.
ridiculous!
The slave dared to murder the prince, but he said no one ordered him?
Are you taking me for a fool?
The three slaves were lying on the ground, not daring to look up at Ying Zheng, their bodies trembling with fear.
Ying Zheng looked at the three of them and said, "I would rather die than fight. It seems someone has the handle."
The pupils of the three people trembled suddenly, and the fear in their hearts became stronger.
This emperor's insight is truly terrifying!
Although they have no spouse, they do have brothers, sisters and parents.
If it weren't for the threat to the lives of their loved ones, how could they do such a life-threatening thing?
But they also know that if they do it, they and their loved ones will die!
If no one is recruited, if the person keeps his promise, his loved ones will still have a chance to survive.
So all three of them chose to remain silent.
Seeing this, Concubine Shu said, "I thought so too, so I arrested all three of their clans!"
The three of them were shocked, and their faces turned pale.
A trace of surprise also flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes.
At this moment, a voice sounded outside the palace, "Your Majesty! You have to make the decision for me, Your Majesty!"
Ying Zheng turned his head slightly, and Zhao Gao hurried out to investigate the situation.
Soon Zhao Gao returned to the palace, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Li is here!"
Ying Zheng's eyes moved slightly, and he waved his hand: "Let her in!"
Concubine Li held up the hem of her white skirt and walked into the hall with her swaying body, her face flustered like a frightened bird.
Seeing Ying Zheng, Concubine Li knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty wants to make the decision for me. This morning while I was having dinner, Concubine Shu's people broke into the palace and took away the people in my house. !”
As she said this, she glared at Concubine Shu fiercely, "This is a serious crime, your Majesty, please punish her severely!"
Ying Zheng looked at Concubine Shu, "Is this happening?"
Concubine Shu's expression was calm, "I am arresting the criminal."
Li Fei's eyes were cold and stern, "That's nonsense! What crime did they commit?"
Concubine Shu's eyes met Concubine Li's, and a cold light suddenly appeared, "According to the laws of the Qin Dynasty, the three clans should be punished for murdering the emperor's heir. They are the three culprit clans, aren't they the sinners?"
The expressions of the three people kneeling on the ground froze.
Concubine Li stood up, not afraid of Concubine Shu at all, "The so-called imperial heirs refer to His Majesty's children who are listed in the genealogy. Your son was just born. Has he been listed in the genealogy?"
After Yingzheng unified the six kingdoms, the laws were strict and everything had to be in accordance with the laws.
Although Ying Ziyu is the son of Ying Zheng, as long as he is not listed in the family tree, he cannot be regarded as an heir of the emperor.
In this way, Concubine Shu will not be able to touch the three tribes, and those few people will not confess.
Concubine Shu's eyes were light, "As early as three days ago, I had someone create a family tree for Yu'er. Your Majesty can see clearly!"
Li Fei's expression suddenly changed, "How can he enter the family tree when he is not yet one month old?"
According to normal customs, no matter whether it is a prince or a princess, the genealogy will be compiled in person under the witness of Ying Zheng during the full moon.
Ying Zheng's eyes moved slightly as he looked at Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu's face was still calm and calm, "There is no rule in the laws of the Qin Dynasty that prohibits entering the genealogy before the full moon."
Li Fei's face froze and she was immediately speechless.
Hearing this, Chunxia suddenly felt bad, and quickly stepped forward and grabbed Li Fei's clothes, "Empress Li Fei! Please save my father!"
He originally took the risk to save his father, but now it has directly affected the three clans.
It's not enough to kill one father, two brothers must also be killed.
If my mother knew this, she would be so angry that she would crawl out of the coffin.
Concubine Li looked panicked and kicked Chunxia away, "Shut up! You are trying to kill the emperor's heir! You actually have the nerve to beg me!"
Then she looked at Ying Zheng, cupped her hands and said, "Your Majesty, I request that these three slaves be executed immediately to prevent them from doing harm to others again."
Ying Zheng's eyes were light and he said, "There's no rush, they will deal with it after everything has been thoroughly reviewed."
"After all, it involves the emperor's heir, so bold, no one involved can be spared, right?"
Feeling Ying Zheng's gaze falling on her intentionally or unintentionally, Li Fei couldn't help but tremble in her heart.
Concubine Shu cupped her hands and said, "Your Majesty is wise!"
After saying this, she walked up to Chun Xia and said, "Although the murder of the emperor's heir is the result of the execution of the Lian clan, as long as you are forgiven by me, you can be given a lighter punishment. In this way, your family may have a chance to survive."
"You should think carefully about whether you want to recruit me or not."
The three figures moved slightly.
Li Fei's expression was extremely ugly.
······
Perhaps because she was still a baby, Ying Ziyu was very sleepy.
After drinking the milk, he fell asleep under Xiangqin's caress.
Touch the chest.
When he opened his eyes again, he saw a big face right in front of him.
【Who? Scared me! 】
A sudden voice sounded in his mind, and Ying Zheng's expression changed slightly.
Who? I was shocked!
Looking around, there was no one else around, and Ying Zheng was a little confused.
Auditory hallucinations?
Looking at the green black bird robe of the man in front of him, Ying Zi's jade eyes moved slightly.
【Huh? This seems to be my emperor father? 】
[Sure enough, he is my ancestor, no wonder he is so handsome! 】
This time the sound was very real.
It's probably not an auditory hallucination.
After all, what he said was the truth.
Emperor father?
Could it be Yu'er's voice?
Seeing that the little guy didn't open his mouth, Ying Zheng quickly reacted.
Can I actually hear Yu'er's heart?
Could this be the legendary connection between father and son?
