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

Chapter 67 All officials pleaded for mercy, everyone pushed the wall when it fell, and Fusu struck back with a knife!

"You mean, the mastermind behind the turmoil in Xianyang City last night was Li Xiang... Li Si, right?"

Ying Xuan sat upright on the dragon throne, squinted his eyes, and looked at Fusu, not knowing what he was thinking.

Before this, he had never told Fusu how to deal with Li Si.

Therefore, what Fusu did now was not within his expectations.

No, that's not right. He had thought that Fusu might plead for Li Xin, but he didn't expect that Fusu would actually stab Li Si with a knife.

This is just adding insult to injury.

He has grown up after all... Ying Xuan thought to himself, with interest. If Fusu was on the original trajectory, he would not be so "sinister".

At this time, Li Si also frowned, a solemn look flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Fusu and said in a deep voice: "Young Master, you are making such groundless accusations, but do you have any evidence?"

"no!"

Fusu turned around and looked at Li Si, saying calmly: "If there is evidence, the one who should stand up now should be Lord Yang!"

Hearing this, Yang Rui bowed slightly, saying that he dared not, and then stepped out of the line and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, there are indeed many suspicious points about Lord Bao Yun's death. With the ability of the court, we have only found out the origin of the person who made the move, but who exactly made the move remains to be investigated!"

"You dare to make groundless accusations without any evidence. Your Highness the Eldest Prince has just returned to Xianyang City, but he is already so powerful. He is worthy of being the Grand Marshal!" Li Si narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice.

The Grand Commandant, one of the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers, was of the same rank as the Prime Minister, and was on equal footing with Li Si before him.

And the person currently sitting in this position is Fusu.

This was the court position that had been determined when Ying Zheng was still alive, and it was not adjusted after Ying Xuan ascended the throne.

Because Fusu supported him, there was no need for him to adjust Fusu's position.

What's more, the position of Grand Marshal is of vital importance, and Ying Xuan cannot find a more suitable candidate than Fusu for the time being.

However, in such a situation, Li Si's words seemed a bit like sowing discord.

"Li Si, stop talking nonsense. Your Highness the eldest prince has been devoted to the Qin Empire and has been guarding the northern border for many years. He just returned to Xianyang City last night and encountered such a chaotic scene. Of course, he is angry!"

Among the officials, someone stepped out angrily, threw a few words at Li Si, and then bowed to Ying Xuan: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, I am worried that such a treatment of General Li Xin may chill the hearts of the soldiers!"

"Your Majesty, please think twice!"

The words just fell!

Another person stood up, and the doctor ordered him to step out: "Your Majesty, there is indeed something strange about Bao Yun's death. Since His Highness the Eldest Prince mentioned it, I would like to advise Your Majesty to investigate this matter first!"

Feng Chang, one of the Nine Ministers, stepped forward and said, "Last night's chaos, the turmoil in Xianyang City, and the unrest among the people are truly appalling. And the source of all this is the death of Lord Bao Yun. I second the motion to investigate this matter!"

The Minister of State Affairs among the Nine Ministers also stepped out and said, "I second the motion!"

Seeing this, the Imperial Eunuch, one of the Nine Ministers, hesitated for a moment and stepped out as well: "I second the motion!"

……

At one time, more than half of the officials stood up and agreed to investigate the truth behind Bao Yun's death.

But in fact, they knew in their hearts that Li Si must be involved in this matter.

The reason they are coming forward now is simply to take sides in advance, or to clear themselves of suspicion, before the matter is investigated thoroughly.

At the same time, it also buys some time.

Although this is a world with a prehistoric background, with gods and Buddhas, immortals, demons, and various magical arts, there are still many restrictions and it is difficult to understand the secrets of heaven.

After all, the secret cannot be revealed.

Under the order of heaven, the only ones who dare to speak of the secrets of heaven are supreme beings who have long transcended the Three Realms and Five Elements.

Therefore, if one wants to get to the bottom of Bao Yun’s death, they have to rely on the most primitive method - investigating the case.

Since it is the most primitive method, it will take a long time to investigate it thoroughly.

"Your Majesty, if we want to investigate this matter, the court can only trace back to three forces, but who they are specifically... I'm afraid only with His Royal Highness the Eldest Prince in charge can we move forward!" Yang Rui became a little restless when he saw all the officials coming out one after another.

But he didn't dare to guarantee it. After all, it was obvious how important this matter was.

He almost died at the hands of Zhao Gao last night, which left him with a psychological trauma. Now he was unwilling to take on such a big task alone no matter what.

Yang Rui’s meaning was very clear. With the ability of the court alone, they could only find out that the people who killed Bao Yun came from three forces.

Confucianism, Taoism and Military Science.

The latter has been basically confirmed to have come from the right supervisor Li Quan. After all, he was the most suspicious and had the most chance to take action.

As for the first two... the entire Peng family has been imprisoned, and Peng Yu even died last night at the hands of the Buddhist army led by Zhang Han, with no trace of his body left.

Only the Confucian magic power that was used to attack Bao Yun remained, and it has not yet been determined who left it.

The dean of Haoran Academy was originally the biggest suspect, but Zhang Han and Ying Xuan acted as guarantors and he was not a scholar in a green robe.

The reason is very simple. The cultivation level of the green-robed scholar is too strong, far exceeding that of ordinary Golden Immortal Realm practitioners. Even Li Si is inferior to him.

If the scholar in green robe had taken action, the body of Bao Yun's corpse might not just be left with Confucian magic power, but rather with remnants of the power of Confucian laws.

And in Xianyang City, apart from the green-robed scholar, the only great Golden Immortal cultivator with Confucian cultivation was Li Si.

The results are self-evident.

But it is one thing for everyone to know it, and it is another thing now that it has been made clear.

"Then check it out. Once you find out, report it directly!" Ying Xuan said calmly.

He just didn't want to push Li Si too hard, force him into a desperate situation, and force Li Si to do something that would result in his own death.

What Ying Xuan wanted more was to boil the frog in warm water, slowly sidelining Li Si and cutting off all his wings.

However, now that Fusu has stepped forward, and with the support of hundreds of officials...for a moment, Ying Xuan recalled that more than a month ago, it was also in this hall that Li Si coerced hundreds of officials and forced him to agree to allow the Lingshan monks to enter Xianyang City.

How similar is this incident and this scene at other times and on other days?

The only difference was that Li Si was full of vigor and vitality at that time. After the death of Ying Zheng, he had become the pillar of the court.

And today, that Optimus Prime was pushed down by Ying Xuan himself.

"This is just the beginning... Li Si, go back and wait for death."

Ying Xuan sat upright on the dragon throne, his eyes met Li Si's, and they stared at each other from afar!
In an instant, both of them had an epiphany!
Li Si seemed to be aware of something, his eyes flickered, with a hint of coldness and gloom.

But what else can he do now?
It's just a grasshopper in autumn!

"There is no one left in Xianyang City who can be used, so I can only think of a way to attract reinforcements from outside the city!" Li Si made a decision secretly in his heart without even looking at the group of fence-sitters behind him who were changing their minds according to the situation!
