Daqin: Your Majesty, quickly abdicate, or your son will turn back

Chapter 266 Zhang Liang's Choice

But with Zhang Liang present, although Li Si was shocked, he didn't dare to say anything, just listened.

"The assassin has already been executed, why did His Majesty say that?"

After a moment of shock, Zhang Liang calmed down, his eyes returned to the calmness before, and then he asked lightly.

"This kind of complicated assassination trick, even if Chen He has been studying it for ten years, he may not be able to figure it out."

Ying Zheng said calmly, his eyes were also looking at Zhang Liang.

"This is just His Majesty's one-sided statement. To make His Majesty plead guilty, you should at least produce corresponding evidence."

Faced with Ying Zheng's fierce gaze, Zhang Liang was not afraid at all, his eyes directly met Ying Zheng's, and then he continued to reply.

"All the evidence has been handled perfectly. If you don't let go, there will indeed be no other evidence."

Hearing this, Ying Zheng replied calmly.

When this incident happened, he also saw the investigation process.

The Assassin was very clever and handled all the evidence perfectly, leaving nothing behind.

"Your Majesty was joking. That matter has nothing to do with me. How can I deal with the evidence?"

Hearing this, Zhang Liang replied indifferently.

He looked like he was planning a strategy.

"But the scapegoat who is willing to die for you, don't you think that is evidence in itself?"

Immediately, Ying Zheng's gaze sharpened slightly, and he sized up Zhang Liang again and replied.

Hearing this, Zhang Liang was taken aback for a moment, then as if realizing something, his brows were furrowed suddenly, and his expression became serious.

"Since it's a scapegoat, there must be some big interests involved in it?"

"If you investigate carefully, you will be able to find out some clues. If you continue the investigation, it will only be a matter of time before you find out the purpose of the scapegoat. In this way, you think the person who saved you can still hide ?"

Sensing Zhang Liang's strangeness, Ying Zheng also knew that he had guessed right, so he continued talking.

Hearing this, Zhang Liang continued to remain silent, but his complexion became more and more ugly, and his brows were also knit into a ball.

"It seems that you, a tyrant, have been able to come to this day because you really have many experts to help you."

After a moment of silence, Zhang Liang raised his head and stared at Ying Zhengdao, but his eyes were not as soft as before, but with a hint of sharpness.

On the other side, when Li Si heard this, he felt his heart tremble.

Not only did this guy plead guilty in front of Ying Zheng, but he also dared to taunt directly. He was the type who was tired of work.

At the same time, he was also a little worried. He was completely wrong about this case, and he didn't know if Ying Zheng would blame him.

"Now I'm giving you a chance to live, do you want it?"

In response to Zhang Liang's ridicule, Ying Zheng's expression did not change much.

He looked at Zhang Liang lightly with his eyes and said.

Hearing this, Zhang Liang was slightly taken aback.

Originally thought that if he admitted to the assassination, Ying Zheng would definitely kill himself in a cruel way.

But unexpectedly, Ying Zheng didn't seem so angry, and even wanted to give himself a chance to survive.

It's just that Zhang Liang disdained that opportunity, snorted coldly, and ignored Ying Zheng at all.

"As long as you are willing to submit to Daqin and be my Daqin's adviser, then I will spare you!"

"Not only that, as long as you are sincere, I will let the past go. It is up to you to choose whether to become an official or rank. As long as you want, I can even treat you as a guest of honor!"

Seeing Zhang Liang's refusal, Ying Zheng was not in a hurry, but just spoke lightly.

At this point, Zhang Liang's expression moved slightly, but he was not moved by Ying Zheng's conditions, but rather shocked.

Unexpectedly, Ying Zheng would make such a request.

As for why he let himself be the counselor, Zhang Liang was also very puzzled.

"Your Majesty, he is an assassin who wants to kill you, isn't that inappropriate!"

Before Zhang Liang could respond, Li Si who was on the side couldn't listen anymore, and hurriedly cupped his hands.

"I have my own plan!"

However, Ying Zheng ignored Li Si's advice and directly vetoed it.

Seeing Ying Zheng's resolute appearance, Li Si frowned slightly, but he didn't dare to say any more.

"Let me stay by your side to be your adviser, aren't you afraid that I'm plotting to assassinate you?"

Zhang Liang was also slightly surprised by Ying Zheng's decision.

After taking a deep breath and calming down, Zhang Liang looked up at Ying Zheng again and said, his eyes were extremely cold, and he did not hide his killing intent at all.

"If you dare to try, I will accompany you!"

However, Ying Zheng didn't seem to care about that threat at all, and just replied lightly.

"Bah! Even if I die, I will never be with you!"

However, Zhang Liang snorted directly, and angrily reprimanded Ying Zheng.

As soon as these words came out, the brows on the side could not help but twist slightly, and his complexion became even more ugly.

For a prisoner who dares to speak to Ying Zheng like that, he is courting death!
Li Si silently sentenced Zhang Liang to death.

"Then go to die!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng's eyes turned cold, and when he turned around, he pulled out the long sword next to him and put it on Zhang Liang's neck with a sound of "Sang--", the murderous aura around him was undoubtedly revealed.

"If you just die, what are you afraid of?!"

However, facing Ying Zheng's murderous intent and that cold blade, Zhang Liang was not afraid at all, his eyes met Ying Zheng's oppressive eyes, and he replied sharply.

This boldness made Li Si at the side look at Zhang Liang with admiration.

It is really surprising that at such an age, when faced with the coercion of Ying Zheng, he can do so well.

You must know that many important ministers will choose to avoid Ying Zheng's gaze.

"I will give you one last chance. If you surrender now, then the conditions I put forward before are still acceptable. If not, you can come to assassinate me again in your next life!"

Ying Zheng stared at Zhang Liang sharply and reprimanded. When he spoke, the long sword in his hand moved closer to Zhang Liang's neck.

At such a close distance, Zhang Liang could clearly feel the coolness on the sword.

"dream!"

However, for Ying Zheng's threat, Zhang Liang directly reprimanded him coldly, and then closed his eyes.

Hearing this, Li Si turned his head slightly, only thinking that Zhang Liang must die.

"mulberry--"

However, in the next moment, the long sword was directly inserted back into the scabbard.

Only then did Zhang Liang open his eyes, looking at Ying Zheng with a slightly puzzled expression.

"let's go."

Ying Zheng gave an order, and then walked out of the cell.

Seeing this, Li Si, who was also in a daze, hurriedly followed.

······
"Why didn't His Majesty kill him just now?"

When he came outside, Li Sicai asked cautiously.

After all, the situation just now, no matter how you look at it, is a situation where Ying Zheng will directly kill Zhang Liang.

"Because he didn't agree to my request."

Ying Zheng replied calmly.

Hearing this, Li Si's pupils shrank, and he was even more shocked.

He now understood that if Zhang Liang had agreed to Ying Zheng just now, he might be a dead body by now.

The emperor's mind is really hard to figure out!
