Beast Taming: Starting from Contracting the Mysterious Beast

Chapter 150: The Highest and Most Honorable King

(Chapter 149 is posted at the end of Chapter 148. Please remember to read Chapter 149, which is the end of the previous chapter)

Especially when Bai Shu, the great minister who was living in Xianyang and reported illness in Lao Ai's secret report, appeared in front of him, how could Lao Ai not understand something?

This time.

My conspiracy has just begun, but it is probably over.

At this moment.

Lao Ai lowered his head dejectedly.

But his heart was already full of mixed feelings.

Before the rebellion, Zhao Ji had advised him.

And, in these few years.

She had repeatedly told him how powerful his eldest son, the King of Qin, was.

However, Lao Ai finally failed to listen to all these advices.

Before entering the palace, Lao Ai was just an ordinary commoner.

However.

After entering the palace for only a few years.

He was in his current high position.

That's how people are.

Desires are something that can never be satisfied.

When Lao Ai was still a commoner, his so-called desire was nothing more than to have no worries about food and clothing and to live well in this chaotic world.

So.

When Lu Buwei found him and asked him to enter the palace as a eunuch, Lao Ai agreed without hesitation.

And now.

When Lao Ai is in a high position.

In terms of power and status, he is only a few people below him in the entire Qin State.

All this has changed.

What Lao Ai desires is no longer the so-called worry-free food and clothing.

What he wants to do is to be in the highest and most honorable position!

So.

When desire defeats reason.

The so-called advice can no longer be listened to.

And all of this.

was seen by Ying Zheng and Bai Shu.

Ying Zheng slowly walked out of the hall and came to Bai Shu's side.

"Lao Ai, will you surrender?"

A gentle cry.

On this side.

Lao Ai sneered and slowly raised his head: "It's just a matter of success or failure, you, Ying Zheng, just kill him."

Facing Lao Ai's words.

Ying Zheng's expression was still very calm.

The look he gave Lao Ai did not seem to be looking at a great enemy.

It was just a trivial matter.

At this moment.

In front of Bai Shu's live broadcast room.

Looking at this Lao Ai who was like a jumping clown.

The audience naturally had no sympathy.

Some just kept teasing.

"This Lao Ai, it seems he is still unconvinced?"

"Haha, maybe he is still regretting? Regret that his plan was not more thorough, and the timing was not more appropriate. But how could he know? From beginning to end, everything he has is under the control of Ying Zheng."

"He is just a poor chess piece..."

"Dealing with him is just a by-product, just a fuse. Ying Zheng's goal has never been just him."

"It's just that the little Ying Zheng now, I don't know why, suddenly makes me feel a little strange..."

"What strange? Decisive killing, this is a real king. You think the Ying Zheng you knew before is actually just what he wants us to see."

As the saying goes.

The person in charge is confused, the bystander is clear.

At this moment, Lao Ai.

When he was about to die.

But he still didn't understand.

He thought he had the opportunity to rise to the top and reach the ladder to heaven, jump out of the chessboard, and become the person holding the chess piece.

However, from the beginning, his chess piece was already firmly held in the hands of Ying Zheng.

The once majestic and arrogant scene.

In the end, it was nothing but a mirage.

"I, Lao Ai, will not surrender!"

A roar.

It was just like the last struggle of cattle and sheep before death.

Ying Zheng did not say anything.

And beside him.

Bai Shu had slowly raised the weapon in his hand: "Changxin Hou Lao Ai! Treason, plotting to assassinate the king! The king has ordered that those who capture Lao Ai alive will be rewarded with one million yuan; those who kill him and offer his head will be rewarded with 500,000 yuan; those who capture the head of the rebels will be rewarded with one level of nobility, and the rewards are the same!"

The arrogant Changxin Hou finally brought about his own end.

Power comes and goes quickly.

Just like the soldiers and retainers under Lao Ai.

After a round of sword rain and a charge by the Qin elite.

Hundreds of people under Lao Ai's command died in the battle.

Lao Ai wanted to run away.

However.

There is no way to heaven, no door to the earth.

How could he escape from his life and ending that had been manipulated by others?

It was the ninth year of Qin Wang Zheng, September.

By the order of Qin Wang Ying Zheng.

Lao Ai, the former Marquis of Changxin of the Great Qin, assassinated and treasoned.

According to Qin law.

He was sentenced to death by chariot.

His paternal clan, maternal clan, and wife clan, totaling more than a thousand people, were all killed.

Anyone who had connections with Lao Ai, whose crimes were more serious, was sentenced to death by chariot, and his clan was exterminated, totaling more than ten thousand people.

Those with lighter crimes were dismissed from their posts and their families were exiled to Shu, totaling more than four thousand families.

The Lao Ai lineage used to be rampant in the court.

However, with the death of Lao Ai, it was like a tree falling and monkeys scattering.

However.

Everyone understood.

This was far from over.

The young King of Qin, who had already taken power, wanted far more than this.

Yongdi.

In the palace.

Following Ying Zheng's order.

Two young lives ended here.

They were thrown to death in front of their mothers.

And their mother is none other than the current Queen Mother of the Qin Dynasty, Zhao Ji.

The blood of the two children flowed all over the floor.

The shrill cry before his death seemed to still be lingering in this huge palace - this was the palace that was once filled with their laughter.

Zhao Ji collapsed on the ground dejectedly.

His hair is disheveled and his clothes are stained with dirt.

Not quite like a queen mother.

And like a crazy woman.

His eyes were blood red.

"They, they are all your brothers!"

"Ying Zheng! Ying Zheng! Ying Zheng!!"

One roar after another.

exchanged.

But he still had Ying Zheng's frighteningly plain expression.

Facing those eyes with hatred.

King Qin just shook his head slowly: "They are not my brothers."

Zhao Ji fell to the ground.

Suddenly he shouted like crazy: "You are not my Zheng'er! You are not my Zheng'er!"

"My Zheng'er is not like this! It's not like this!"

Crying with laughter, laughter with tears.

However, Ying Zheng still just shook his head: "I have not changed, only my mother has changed."

Zhao Ji gritted her teeth and still roared: "The Ai family just wants a family, just a family! What's wrong with the Ai family!? What's the crime of those two children!?"

"Whether you are Ying Zheng or you are Ying Zichu! The Ai family just wants to have a family, and the Ai family does not want to be the Queen Mother of Qin! Is there anything wrong with this!?"

"Is it wrong too!?"

His eyes were red, he was crying and shouting loudly.

Zhao Ji roared and cried bitterly.

However, no matter how Zhao Ji cried in front of her.

Ying Zheng's expression and tone were still the same cold: "The mother's mistake is that you are the Queen Mother of Qin."

"And those two children? Their birth is a sin."

"Mother, you have crossed the line."

A light word.

It seemed that Zhao Ji was brought back ten years ago.

It seemed like I suddenly remembered a lot.

Ganquan Palace that year.

Ying Zichu and Xia Ji that year, and her...
