Overlord of the late Qin Dynasty

Chapter 283 Hu Hai's Death, Entering Guanzhong ([-])
"Yes!" Yan Le agreed with cupped hands.

Seeing this, Zhao Gao said to Zhao Ji who was outside the carriage: "Ji'er, you will lead the troops to patrol the city. The two generals of Hu Qiying Yang Qiu and Ma Xiu will follow the real prime minister into the palace!"

"Yes! Uncle!" Zhao Ji agreed with his hands clasped, and then got off his horse and stood with Yan Le.

Ma Xiu and Yang Qiu are from the Qiang tribe in the west of Tianshui County, and they came to serve when Zhao Gao recruited Hu Qi.The two men had extraordinary martial arts skills, and Zhao Gao appreciated them and was promoted to be Huqiying generals, each commanding [-] Huqiying battalions.They became the only two foreign generals in the Huqi battalion, so they were also loyal to Zhao Gao.

The remaining three generals of Hu Qiying are Zhao Xi, Zhao Xi, the former personal soldier of Zhao Ji, and Dou Yun and Teng Jin, Zhao Gao's subordinates when he was the commander of CRRC.It can be said that although Zhao Gao let his nephew Zhao Ji take charge of the Huqiying camp, the entire Huqiying camp is still under his control secretly.

Yan Le and Zhao Ji watched the carriage enter the palace under the guard of thousands of Hu Qi, and then each said goodbye and went to busy with their own affairs.

"Maxiu, you led two thousand horsemen to surround the Taiji Palace. Without a warrant from the real prime minister, no one is allowed to enter or leave! Violators will be punished!" Zhao Gao got off the carriage, looked at the Taiji Palace in front of him and said softly.

"Here!" Matthew took over the command and led two thousand of his subordinates to take over the defense of Tai Chi Palace.

Seeing that Ma Xiu was taking orders, Zhao Gao took Yang Qiu into the Tai Chi Palace.

Hu Hai was drinking wine in the Tai Chi Hall, watching the newly rehearsed dance by the dancer.He didn't know anything about what happened in the palace, because all the people promoted by Gai were controlled by Zhao Gao with a thunderous force.Now he is still sitting, and his confidantes unite with the big clans in Xianyang City who are loyal to Qin to kill Zhao Gao, dreaming of regaining power.

Hundreds of armored soldiers broke into the hall suddenly, which surprised Hu Hai, and then asked angrily, "You brought armor into the hall without my edict, do you want to seek rebellion?"

The soldiers stood still, and Zhao Gao walked slowly into the Tai Chi Hall under the guard of Yang Qiu.

When Hu Hai saw Zhao Gao, he thumped in his heart and said to himself, "Could it be that this old thief knows that I want to kill him?"

Seeing Zhao Gao's expressionless face, Hu Hai asked with a smile: "The Taifu came with soldiers, but there are rebels in the palace?"

"The old minister has seen His Majesty!" Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai who was pretending to be stupid, sneered in his heart, and then cupped his hands.

"Teacher, please get up quickly!" Hu Hai felt ashamed of Zhao Gao, so he waved away the maids on the left and right, stood up and helped Zhao Gao up.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhao Gao was helped up by Hu Hai, and then thanked him.

"As the prime minister of a country, the Taifu is also my teacher. From now on, there is no need to salute to me!" Hu Hai said with great reassurance when he saw that he had supported Zhao Gao and received his thanks.

"The old minister dare not!" Zhao Gao sneered in his heart when he saw what Hu Hai was doing, but he pretended to be panicked. "The old minister was handling the state affairs in the mansion, but he got the news that someone wanted to kill the old minister. If not, he entered the palace and asked His Majesty to send an army into the city to protect the old minister!"

"Oh?" Hu Hai was terrified in his heart, but pretended to be very surprised on the surface. "Who dares to be so bold? Want to murder me, Great Qin Zhushi?"

"Don't you know, Your Majesty?" Seeing that Hu Hai was still struggling, Zhao Gao raised his head and looked at Hu Hai coldly.

"This! How would I know?" Hu Hai didn't see Zhao Gao's eyes, and was still quibbling. "If the Taifu didn't come to report, I'm afraid I still don't know about it!"

"Really?" Zhao Gao no longer teased Hu Hai, instead of saying coldly: "But the old minister heard that His Majesty is very dissatisfied with the old minister recently, and secretly recruited the dead to assassinate the old minister!"

"Teacher! This must be a slander against me!" Hu Hai was very anxious when he heard this, and immediately said. "I am deeply favored by the Taifu, how can I kill the Taifu!"

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! The old minister is so disappointed in you!" Zhao Gao immediately said when he heard that Hu Hai was still arguing. "Your Majesty is able to secretly recruit people, but he dare not tell the veterans after they know about it. How could this be done by a wise king!"

"It seems! The old minister can't say that he has to be replaced by another emperor!" After finishing speaking, Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai with cold eyes and told him a frightening news.

"No! Grand Tutor!" Hu Hai was very anxious. He didn't want to give up his current life, let alone die. "I beg you, from now on, Hu Hai will definitely obey the Taifu's words!"

Seeing that Zhao Gao was not moved by his words, Hu Hai began to break the jar. "Even if you want to abolish Zhen, no one can replace Zhen as emperor. Those brothers of Zhen were all killed under your order, and their descendants will definitely not obey you!"

Looking at Hu Hai's current performance, Zhao Gao felt for the first time that it was a wrong decision to support Hu Hai.

"Really?" Zhao Gao asked with a smile on his lips. "Your Majesty, do you still remember that the old minister persuaded His Majesty to keep the son Ying?"

As soon as he heard Gongziying, Hu Hai fell to the ground in an instant.

Ignoring Hu Hai, Zhao Gao continued: "As long as Gong Ziying knows that the old minister persuaded His Majesty to spare his life, he must be willing to take over the position of Emperor. Moreover, Gong Ziying has lived like walking on ice all these years, and is better than His Majesty. Take control!"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Hu Hai who fell to the ground.Zhao Gao said to Yang Qiu behind him: "General Yang, send Your Majesty on the road!"

"Here!" Yang Qiu bowed his hands to accept the order, and then signaled the sergeant beside him to bring up the prepared poisoned wine.

Looking at the Great Qin Emperor on the ground, Yang Qiu bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please drink this glass of wine. Don't make things difficult for the young general!"

"Hahaha!" Hu Hai looked at the foreign sergeant beside him, and suddenly burst out laughing.Taking the wine glass, Hu Hai looked at Zhao Gao and cursed: "Old thief Zhao Gao, you must die!"

Seeing Hu Hai cursing Zhao Gao before he died, Yang Qiu drew his sword and wanted to step forward.Seeing this, Zhao Gao said: "Don't pay attention to him!"

After Hu Hai finished speaking, he drank a glass of poisoned wine.

After a while, Hu Hai bled to death from his seven orifices.

Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai, who was bleeding from all seven orifices on the ground, knelt down and touched Hu Hai's face, and said, "Your Majesty! The old minister watched you grow up, how can you not know your nature? If you don't kill you today, you will be killed in the future." There will be no peace for the old minister! You can blame it, you shouldn't be tempted by the old minister!"

"General Yang! Order someone to order the ministers of the court to enter the palace, and declare that His Majesty will die suddenly during the intercourse!" Zhao Gao got up and wiped his hands with the cloth in his sleeve, and then threw it on the ground.

"Here!" Yang Qiu led the way out.

Camp outside Luoyang city.

In the handsome tent, Xiang Yu was looking at the information that had just been delivered.The intelligence said that Hu Hai had murderous intentions towards Zhao Gao, and was planning to secretly connect courtiers to kill Zhao Gao.The sons of Fusu, Ziying, Han Yu, and Yan Le have been in frequent contact recently, and they seem to be plotting something.

"It seems that Ziying is going to kill Hu Hai and Zhao Gao to avenge his father!" After reading the information, Xiang Yu secretly thought.
