In the dim room, Ying Zheng's eyes fell on the rabbit in the cage.
Wang Jian, an old general with a gray beard, was reporting on the progress of the interrogation. "All three of them have been recruited. It is said that Concubine Li threatened the lives of their family members and had no choice but to murder the emperor's heir."
Ying Zheng's eyes were light, "Is there any physical evidence?"
In order to convict a person according to Da Qin's laws, witness evidence is not enough; complete physical evidence is also required.
Wang Jian frowned slightly, "I sent people to search Concubine Li's mansion and the residences of the criminals, but no evidence was found."
Ying Zheng turned his head and his eyes fell on Wang Jian, "Is this the result you want to tell me?"
With a slightly tense look on his face, Wang Jian cupped his hands and said, "Although they confessed, if no physical evidence can be found, there is a possibility that Concubine Li was framed."
"I will do my best to investigate and make sure this matter comes to light!"
Ying Zheng looked at the rabbits in the cage and asked, "How are these rabbits doing?"
Zhao Gao on the side handed over his hand and said, "Your Majesty, the rabbit has been in good condition. After taking the elixir, it has been jumping around looking for food. It is in good spirits. Sometimes it has to fight twice before it calms down."
Ying Zheng came closer and looked at the excited rabbits, "Do you think that if the elixir is poisonous, it is possible that these rabbits will behave like this?"
Zhao Gao and Wang Jian were all shocked.
Are elixirs poisonous?
This is huge news!
Ying Zheng has been taking elixirs for more than a year and has eaten countless elixirs. If the elixirs are found to be poisonous, it will definitely cause a bloody storm in Daqin.
Zhao Gao also understood Ying Zheng's intention at this moment, "Your Majesty, do you think the elixir is poisonous?"
Ying Zheng looked at the rabbit with slight confusion, "But this rabbit is getting better and better. Is this reasonable?"
Wang Jian's eyes darkened slightly, "Maybe this poison is only useful for humans, but is beneficial to animals."
"Why don't you let Mr. Zhao eat some to see if it's poisonous?"
Zhao Gao's expression froze, "General Wang, why don't you eat?"
Wang Jian: "I'm afraid of poison."
Zhao Gao:. . . . . .
Is it hard to be a human being?
Ying Zheng sighed and looked lonely, "I just want to do more for Great Qin, is it so difficult?"
Wang Jian became serious, "Old minister, you can try it with a death row prisoner. You will definitely be able to find out whether this pill is poisonous."
Ying Zheng was silent for a moment and then said: "Let's do it."
After speaking, Ying Zheng turned and left.
As soon as he reached the door, Zhao Gao's panicked voice came, "Your Majesty!"
Ying Zheng turned around and saw Zhao Gao looking at the cage with a horrified look on his face.
He quickly approached and saw that all the rabbits in the cage that were jumping around just now had fallen down.
His seven orifices were bleeding, his body was like a dead tree, as if his spiritual energy had been sucked out, and his death was very miserable.
Ying Zheng was shocked.
What Yu'er said is indeed right!
If I continue to take this pill, this may be my fate!
Ying Zheng's eyes were extremely cold and he shouted sternly: "Kill all the alchemists!"
······
When Ying Zheng stepped into the hall, the little guy's voice came.
【Daddy is wise! Daddy is mighty! 】
The news that the alchemist was beheaded had spread, and Ying Ziyu also knew about it.
But no one knew why the alchemist was killed.
Most of them felt that something was not done well, which angered Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng looked at the little guy lying down with a proud expression on his face.
Now you know how awesome it is to be a father, right?
But it’s basically all your fault.
[Why are the corners of daddy's mouth twitching? Are you sick? 】
Ying Zheng:. . . . .
He held the little guy in his arms and looked at the maid next to him, "Has Yu'er fed?"
The maid hurriedly said: "Go back to your majesty, I have just eaten."
Ying Zheng waved his hand, "Then eat it again."
"No!" The maid quickly brought another jug of milk. Ying Zheng waved it in front of Ying Ziyu, and the little guy shook his head repeatedly.
[I don’t want to be the first person to be choked to death by my breasts. 】
Ying Zheng put the pot into his arms, "Father, let me warm you up first. Tell me when you are hungry."
This scene made Zhao Gao and others stunned.
Is this still the cold Majesty?
At this moment, Wang Jian walked into the palace, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, almost all the alchemists have been killed, except Xu Fu."
【Kill, kill, kill! Xu Fu must be killed! 】
[That guy later took away three thousand boys and girls of the Qin Dynasty in the name of searching for the elixir of immortality, seriously damaging the national destiny of the Qin Dynasty! 】
[Otherwise, Great Qin would not have died so quickly! 】
Ying Zheng's heart trembled.
Will Da Qin die?
Normally this should be the case, but fortunately the red sandalwood star shines.
But this time, after hearing Ying Ziyu's voice, he no longer took poison, which had obviously changed the direction of Da Qin.
Not only that, Xu Fu's destruction of the national destiny of Qin will not happen.
Ying Zheng is now very sure.
Yu'er is definitely the red sandalwood star who saves Da Qin!
"kill!"
Ying Zheng's tone was cold.
Wang Jian frowned, "Xu Fu, he's gone."
Ying Zheng's eyes darkened, "What do you mean you're gone?"
Wang Jian looked ugly, "The old minister sent people to search the alchemy room. There was no blind spot within a five-mile radius, but he couldn't be found. The way out of the palace has been blocked for a long time. No one left the palace today."
Wang Jian was also confused about this strange situation.
A good person is like disappearing from the world. No matter how hard you look for him, you can't find him.
Ying Zheng also looked quite confused.
How come it can't be found?
【It's in the alchemy room. 】
Ying Zheng's expression changed slightly.
Alchemy room?
Not likely.
Wang Jian has always been rigorous in his work. How could he not find it in the alchemy room?
[Hidden with a blindfold, just split open the red wall on the left. 】
[It’s a pity that I can’t speak, otherwise I would have told you. 】
The corners of Ying Zheng's lips curled up.
Just because you can't speak doesn't mean your father can't hear you, Yu'er.
[Why did my father's mouth start to twitch again? Are you really not sick? 】
Ying Zheng ignored this guy and looked at Wang Jian, "Follow me to the alchemy room!"
Although Wang Jian looked confused, he could only hand over his hand and said, "No!"
Just as he was about to leave, he felt something tugged at the corner of his clothes.
Ying Zheng looked down and saw the little guy struggling to hold the corner of his clothes with his little hands, blinking at him with his big eyes.
【Gift. 】
Ying Zheng:. . . .
Haven't you given it before?
Seeing that Ying Zheng didn't respond, the little guy's eyes moved slightly.
[No way, no way, no emperor would come to see his son for the second time and be reluctant to give him a gift, right? 】
Ying Zheng:. . . .
Is there such a rule?
【No gift? 】
[Alas, I am indeed a child that no one cares about. 】
【When I grow up in the future...】
Ying Zheng:. . . .
"Zhao Gao!" He shouted, and Zhao Gao quickly stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Wei Chen is here!"
"Bring me the jade pendant I prepared for Yu'er! It's the one I particularly liked before!"
With the experience last time, Zhao Gao was familiar with the road this time, "Promise!"
Soon, Zhao Gao presented a jade pendant with crystal clear color, and he could tell at a glance that it was of high quality.
Ying Zheng placed the jade pendant next to the little guy, "This is Yu'er for you."
The little guy glanced at it and wasn't too happy.
[Not gold? 】
[Forget it, let’s make do with it. 】
【Who made you my father? 】
Ying Zheng:. . . .
Did you choose it yet?
This is much more valuable than gold, right?
"Okay, dad is leaving."
Ying Zheng turned around and was about to leave, but found that the little guy grabbed him again.
Turning around, the little guy kept pointing to the longevity lock next to him with his little hand.
[Bring it with you. 】
Ying Zheng's eyes were quite puzzled, "Give it to me?"
The little guy tried his best to nod, but his neck hadn't opened yet, so he could only see his little head shaking hard.
"Thank you so much Yu'er."
Presumably Ying Ziyu had his own reasons for doing this, so Ying Zheng still put away the golden lock.
The little guy watched helplessly as the golden lock was taken away, almost crying.
[I only have this piece of gold, remember to give it back to me! 】
