==============================================

"You Zhao people? Chu people? Korean people? Wei people? Qi people? Yan people?" Ying Zheng asked.Although Emperor Yingzheng felt that the person who sneaked in would not be harmful to him, he still did not lose his due vigilance.

"Return to Your Majesty, I am from Qin, not a descendant of the nobles of the old six countries."

"Oh? Are you from the old Qin? Why did you pretend to be Qin Jun and sneak into my camp? Do you want to assassinate me?" Ying Zheng became very wary when he heard that Qin Yang was from Qin, and he was very respectful to him. So he asked kindly.

Ying Zheng's heart was not only full of curiosity and doubts about this man, but he also couldn't help feeling deep admiration for this man's ability to sneak into his "bedroom" without anyone noticing under the strict defense of thousands of people.He has always loved and respected talents, and what he wants to do the most is to make all the heroes in the world available to him, so that these people can push the empire that has devoted all his efforts to a higher peak.The death of the Legalist master Han Fei (Note) was an eternal pain in his heart, so Ying Zheng really wanted to keep this extraordinary figure in front of him for the empire in his lifetime.

Qin Yang felt the change in Emperor Yingzheng's state of mind, and knew that Emperor Shi Huang had no doubts or fears about him, so he cupped his hands and replied, "Your Majesty, my surname is Qin Mingyang. Where is this, this..., let's put it this way, I am from Xianyang. I am here today to punish Zhao Gaolai, not to harm His Majesty."

Qin Yang was a little speechless, because he didn't know how to answer where he was from, after all, there were too many differences between the two time and space.

"Why do you want to kill Zhao Gao? He is just a servant, so it is worth your risk? Could it be that I can't get into your eyes? Haha..."

Ying Zheng didn't care about Qin Yang's lack of words, but he was very surprised by Qin Yang's intentions. After all, the restoration forces of the Six Kingdoms are trying to kill him before he can.In Yingzheng's heart, there is even more reason to believe that Qin Yang is the killer sent by the nobles of the old six countries, and the target should be himself, so Yingzheng really wants to find out.

"Your Majesty, how do you know something. This Zhao Gao, Zhao Gao..." Facing Emperor Yingzheng's surprise and confusion, Qin Yang didn't know how to answer for a while, because he didn't think clearly whether he should tell Emperor Shihuang Regarding Zhao Gao's affairs in the future, he was not sure that Emperor Shihuang would believe his own words.

"Oh? I don't know? What happened to Zhao Gao? Come on, tell me!" Ying Zheng became more and more interested, and even asked Qin Yang.

After a pause, Ying Zheng saw that Qin Yang was still kneeling on the ground, and hurriedly greeted Qin Yang and said, "Quick, get up, and find a place to sit by yourself. I'm sorry Ying Zheng can't fully salute." Ying Zheng struggled to remember, but He was so weak that his efforts failed in the end.

At this time, the caring tone of Emperor Yingzheng seemed to be talking with a person closest to him, rather than facing a mysterious infiltrator who could take his life at any time.

Seeing Emperor Yingzheng like this, Qin Yang felt sad again, so he stood up as he said.Then he took out his thumb-sized medicine bottle from his underwear pocket, poured out a pill, and silently handed it to Ying Zheng.Although Qin Yang knew that Ying Zheng was overworked and sick, and that no matter how good this medicine was, it could only help Emperor Ying Zheng suppress his illness and improve his energy, but Qin Yang still wanted to do his best.

"Medicine? Give it to me? Okay, I'll give it a try!" Ying Zheng took it without the slightest hesitation and put it in his mouth without even thinking about it.At this time, the first emperor didn't have any doubts about the young sergeant in front of him, and he was not afraid that it was poison. This situation was unique in the first few decades of the first emperor's life since he could remember. Everything seemed to be so As it should be.

The medicine melted in the mouth, and Ying Zheng immediately felt the bottom of his tongue produce fluid, and his mouth was full of fragrance.After just a cup of tea, Ying Zheng felt a warm current rising from his abdomen, slowly swimming all over his body like a warm sun.Fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, his pale face began to turn red, and the strength that had disappeared for a long time seemed to return to his body again.Ying Zheng squinted his eyes and felt the changes in his body quietly. He seemed to have returned to the era when the Communist regime was wiped out more than ten years ago...

After a long time, Ying Zheng opened his eyes, looked at Qin Yang with a strange look, and said, "You are not from the old Qin, you are an alchemist from the old Qi State, your medicine is better than Xu Fu's. "

How could alchemists' pills be compared with high-tech medicines more than 2000 years later, but Qin Yang couldn't explain it in this era. Qin Yang was a little bit dumbfounded. It’s not the alchemist’s pill, there are only these six pills in the whole world, please don’t be surprised, Your Majesty.”

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Well, let's continue to talk about your reason for coming, that is, why did you kill Zhao Gao?" After all, Ying Zheng is an open-minded person. Seeing Qin Yang's words, he no longer struggled with medicine. from.Now that he was at ease physically and mentally, he remembered the original topic again.

"Your Majesty, I really can't explain this matter for a while. If Your Majesty doesn't mind, I would like to tell Your Majesty a story first." Qin Yang, who was in extreme danger, had already put life and death aside, and now he only had one thought in his mind, that is, Trying to persuade the first emperor to kill Zhao Gao, but directly talking about the aftermath of the first emperor, Qin Yang was afraid that the emperor would not accept it, so he wanted to use another way to admonish him.

"Story? Alright, let's listen to it. Haha..." Ying Zheng's health improved slightly, his spirits were high, and the last trace of wariness towards Qin Yang disappeared, and what followed was a kind of unreasonable Trusting and gracious.

"Okay, then I'll start talking. If there is something that doesn't please you, please don't get angry. You must know that if the emperor is angry, he will lay dead for thousands of miles, and I can't bear it." Qin Yang said with a smile.He began to plan his way out, he didn't want to die in the hands of Emperor Shihuang for no reason, because he still had more things to do.

"Forgive your innocence, let's talk." A long-lost smile appeared on Ying Zheng's face.

"Follow orders." Qin Yang cleared his mind, slightly modified the history of another time and space, and began to tell the story that made people cry.

"A long time ago, a great king was born in this land. He was born in an enemy country, and he returned to the country after going through hardships. He took the throne at the age of 13, took charge at the age of 20, and then spent 19 years to wipe out He overthrew many enemy countries, achieved the great cause of unification, and built the first multi-ethnic centralized state. Afterwards, he pursued perfection in everything, such as setting up public ministers, abolishing enfeoffments, replacing prefectures and counties, revising criminal laws, implementing legal systems, and writing with the same text , Cars on the same track, one measure, break the defense of the river, build canals, connect the water system; attack strong enemies from the outside, calm the barbarians, relocate the common people, promote integration, build the Great Wall, and prevent foreign attacks; because of this, he is also hailed by later generations. One emperor. However, he devoted himself to the whole day but ignored the livelihood of the common people in the world. In the last ten years of his life, he swayed the power of the people to his heart's content. Avoiding the decline. The king also passed away at the most critical time due to overwork, and the worst thing he did in his life was that he did not clarify the successor of the imperial power in time, so that a person he thought was the most worthy Utilized by a trusted servant, it led to the subsequent evil government and chaos. After the king died, the servant colluded with a very powerful minister, tampered with the king's edict, forced to death the eldest son of the king, who was well-respected in the ruling and opposition parties, and supported An idiot prince ascended the throne. Then the three of them began massacring heroes and members of the royal family. Those heroes and members of the royal family were almost slaughtered; It was on the brink of collapse. Finally, in the second year after the king passed away, the people of the Li people began to riot. The empire created by the king suddenly collapsed..."

After Qin Yang finished telling this "story" full of sorrow, his eyes were already filled with tears. He took a deep breath and looked at the First Emperor quietly.

After listening to Qin Yang's "story", Emperor Yingzheng's face was very solemn, and his eyes were even more complicated.Anger, shock, shame, confusion and various emotions were intertwined and entangled in his heart instantly.Ying Zheng knew that although Qin Yang didn't nominate him, Qin Yang was talking about himself, and Qin Yang just changed his method.Because in his memory, no one in this land has ever done anything similar to himself.King Wen of Zhou did not, Jiang Xiaobai (King Qi Heng) did not, Zhao Yong (King Zhao Wuling) did not, and even further ahead, Yao, Shun and Yu did not!Why is this Qin Yang so familiar?And why did he know what happened "behind him"?Who is he, and what is he?Is it a killer?no!He can come and go freely in the camp with thousands of guards. If this person wants to take his own life, it is a piece of cake, why should he give himself a magic pill?

After the serious illness, Yingzheng no longer taboos about life and death, and now he is most concerned about the empire, but in this Qin Yang's story, his empire will die just three years after his death, and the culprit is still Zhao Gao, how did Qin Yang learn about it?Ying Zheng had too many doubts in his heart. For the first time in his life, he felt deeply confused.

Silence, deep silence!

Emperor Yingzheng and Qin Yang just looked at each other silently...

When the first ray of dawn quietly leaked in through the gap in the big tent, finally, Ying Zheng seemed to understand something, he insisted on getting up from the bed and stood in front of Qin Yang, and asked softly: Can I see how you take off your helmet?"

===============================

Note: Han Fei was a descendant of the Korean royal family at the end of the Warring States period, and he was the most representative figure of ancient Chinese Legalism. Legalism reached a new peak in the hands of Han Fei.Both he and Li Si were disciples of Xunzi.At that time, South Korea was very weak and was often bullied by neighboring countries. He proposed to the king of Han many times to make him rich and strong, but he was not adopted by the king of Han.Han Fei wrote a series of articles such as "Lonely Wrath" and "Five Worms", which were later collected into the book "Han Feizi".Qin Wang Yingzheng read Han Fei's article and appreciated it very much.In 234 BC, Han Fei came to Qin State as an envoy of South Korea, and wrote to the king of Qin, urging him to attack Zhao first and delay the attack on Han.Li Si was jealous of Han Fei's talent, and together with Yao Jia, he slandered and framed Han Fei. Han Fei was forced to commit suicide by taking poison, and Emperor Shi Huang blamed himself very much for it.
