Qin Renhuang just became an immortal, and you told me this is the prehistoric time

Chapter 65: Li Si’s crime, the confrontation in the hall, the Grand Commandant of the Qin Dynasty, Confucianism and Confucianism!

After seeing Yang Rui jump out, the civil and military officials had different expressions, but none of them were surprised.

This was because Tingzheng was an official under Tingwei, second only to Tingwei, and was responsible for investigating cases and trials. In addition, Yang Rui was recognized as Ying Xuan's trusted subordinate, so it was not surprising that he came forward to attack Li Si at this time.

The only thing that concerned all the officials was that Yang Rui's breathing was a little fluctuating and his face was pale. It was obvious that he had just recovered from his injuries and had suffered a serious blow before.

A few people knew the inside story and glanced covertly at Fusu who was standing next to Li Si.

If Fusu had not rushed back to Xianyang City in time last night, even if Yang Rui had survived, he would not have been able to appear in the palace today.

Sitting on the dragon throne, Ying Xuan held up his chin, cast a glance, and said lightly: "Approved."

Yang Rui bowed to express his gratitude, and after a few seconds of silence, he seemed to be thinking.

Then, he took a deep breath and said loudly: "I report that Prime Minister Li Si and the Minister of the Imperial Chariots Zhao Gao have secretly conspired to betray our Great Qin and collude with the traitors of other countries!"

"During last night's riot in Xianyang, nearly 10,000 imperial guards were killed, two great generals, Wang Jian and Meng Wu, were seriously injured, Zhao Gao defected, and took Prince Hu Hai hostage, and his whereabouts are unknown!"

"At the same time, I request that you thoroughly investigate whether there is any hidden cause behind the deaths of Prime Minister Li Si and Lord Bao Yun, the Minister of Justice!"

boom!
It's like a stone that causes a thousand ripples!

Inside the hall, the pupils of all the officials constricted as they looked at Yang Rui with serious expressions, and then at Li Si.

They all knew that there would be a reckoning at today's court meeting, which would affect countless people and involve a wide range of people.

However, what the ministers did not expect was that he would be so powerful right from the start!

The first person to be impeached was Li Si, the Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty!
In addition, everyone was somewhat surprised that Hu Hai was abducted by Zhao Gao.

They knew that a lot of things had happened last night, but because Zhang Han led the Buddhist army to patrol and guard the city and clean up a lot of traces, people were not very clear about what had happened.

If Yang Rui had not mentioned it, they would not have known that Hu Hai had already left Shanglin Garden and was abducted by Zhao Gao.

Of course, whether it was really a hostage or not... everyone knew it, but due to Hu Hai's identity as a prince of the Qin Dynasty, they tacitly chose a nicer explanation.

After all, even if we ignore Ying Zheng's face, we have to think about it. Hu Hai is still Ying Xuan's half-brother in terms of blood and name.

It is better to be abducted by Zhao Gao, a traitor who betrayed the Qin Dynasty, than to have the Qin emperor's brother rebel against the Qin Dynasty.

"Prime Minister Li, do you have anything to refute?"

Ying Xuan took in the reactions of all the civil and military officials, his expression unchanged, and cast his gaze on Li Si who was standing next to Fusu.

At this moment, the Prime Minister of the Great Qin had been put on the stove.

"Return to Your Majesty."

Li Si stepped forward, bowed, and said softly: "Your Majesty, I have nothing to say!"

As soon as the words fell, it was as if another meteorite had fallen, and the ministers looked on in shock.

Is this... directly admitting all the charges against him by Yang Rui?
Even Fusu, Feng Quji and others looked over with some surprise, their eyes flickering in confusion and surprise.

"So, Prime Minister Li has acknowledged it?" Ying Xuan sat on the dragon throne, narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Li Si from a distance.

Although he was somewhat surprised that Li Si was so frank, he had a feeling in his heart that this might be Li Si.

Never deny your ambitions and never cover up your crimes.

"Your Majesty...Yes!" Li Si said slowly.

The words fell!

There was deathly silence in the hall.

But in the dark, there was a bolt of lightning from the sky, striking everyone’s forehead.

Only Li Si and Ying Xuan remained calm.

The former knew that all the facts were as solid as iron, and there was no possibility for him to quibble. Most importantly, Zhang Han was standing in this hall, and the Buddhist army was still stationed outside the palace. Even if Li Si wanted to resist, there was no possibility.

And... Li Si lowered his eyes, glanced at Fusu beside him, and sighed secretly in his heart.

He is the only great Legalist in the world, and he is also a disciple of the Confucian sage Xunzi. His cultivation is unfathomable. Even if they are in the same Golden Immortal Realm, few people can match him.

The only exception is Fusu.

This eldest prince had been the Grand Marshal since the time when Ying Zheng was still alive, in charge of hundreds of thousands of Qin troops and sitting on an equal footing with him in the court. He had been practicing with great Confucian scholars since he was young, and was extremely talented. He had completely inherited Ying Zheng's style, and his cultivation progress was smooth.

Even Li Si was not sure he could suppress Fusu.

This was also one of the reasons why he simply accepted Yang Rui's accusations and took all the blame.

However, although Li Si was so straightforward, Ying Xuan did not expect to let him go so easily.

Ying Xuan sat on the dragon chair, looked at Li Si, who had a calm face, and said coldly: "Since Prime Minister Li has not made any rebuttal and admitted to treason, then we will follow the law!"

"But considering that Li Xiang is an old minister of the late emperor, who once helped our Great Qin unify the world and made great contributions, he assisted the late emperor wholeheartedly!"

"A light punishment for a heavy crime!"

"From now on, you are under house arrest and are not allowed to leave Xianyang City without an imperial decree!"

"In addition, all official positions will be revoked, official seals will be taken back, official hats will be removed, and you are not allowed to enter the palace without my permission!"

Upon hearing this, the faces of the civil and military officials changed slightly.

Is this a light punishment?

If the punishment is severe... wouldn't the entire family be implicated according to the law?

Thinking of this, everyone felt heavy in their hearts.

Even Feng Quji, the left prime minister, couldn't help but frown and subconsciously looked at the eldest prince Fusu, expecting him to say something.

However, when he looked over there, Feng Quji was stunned.

Fusu came to Li Si, lowered his eyes, and said calmly: "I'm sorry, Prime Minister Li!"

The words fell!

Fusu took direct action and took off Li Si's official hat!

In an instant, Li Si subconsciously mobilized his magic power!
hum!
A boundless and vast aura surged up and ran rampant throughout the hall, like a surging wave!
In the dark, the strict laws are like an abyss and a prison!
But the next moment, Fusu waved his hand and directly dispelled this power.

Then, he raised his hand, and the official seal on Li Si's body immediately flew out and fell into his palm.

Having lost the official seal, Li suddenly felt his shoulders sink, and a loud dragon roar faintly rang in his mind!

The destiny of the Qin Empire!

Li Si's eyes darkened slightly, and he immediately reacted and sighed secretly.

Without his official position, he would no longer be blessed by the destiny of the Qin Empire and might even be suppressed by it!

After all, he has many charges!
Even Ying Xuan didn't need to target him specifically, he was already feeling uncomfortable!
"excuse me."

Fusu nodded, raised his hand and handed the official seal and official hat to Zhao Cheng and passed them over.

Then, he returned to his original position, as if nothing had happened.

But everyone in the hall looked at Fusu with solemn or unexpected expressions, with turbulent waves in their hearts!

Li Si... a great cultivator in the Golden Immortal Realm, was actually so miserable in front of Fusu! ?
What level of cultivation has Fusu reached now?
Li Si came back to his senses and looked at Fusu deeply.

Then, he raised his hand and bowed to Ying Xuan who was sitting on the dragon throne, saying, "Li Si, I thank your majesty for his grace!"

Just like before, he left Sanghai, entered Xianyang City, and was appointed as a noble and prime minister by Emperor Zulong!
