In short, as long as they can get back to Xianyang before Tang Xi and his men send Lao Ai and Zhao Ji to Ying Zheng, they must do so.

Lu Buwei knew that there was a small road, which was quite bumpy, but could shorten the time by one third.

He immediately took his men and rushed back to Xianyang.

At this time. On the road that Tang Xi and his men took.

Lao Ai's face was gloomy, and he didn't know where his thoughts flew to while sitting in the prison car. He was absent-minded anyway.

And Zhao Ji kept crying, with pear blossoms in the rain, and sometimes even burst into tears when she saw people passing by.

But she didn't think about it, who would dare to save her along the way?

People were sitting in the prison car openly, and they might have committed a serious crime.

If she saved her at this time, wouldn't it be troublesome?

And the four people guarding the prison car, although there were few people, they were murderous and not easy to mess with.

She saw that no matter how much she cried, it didn't work, and she became more desperate.

In this way, the four people pulled two prison cars and returned to Xianyang safely.

The next thing is Gai Nie's matter.

He sent Lao Ai and Zhao Ji to Ying Zheng by himself.

Tang Xi, on the other hand, took Tian Yan back to Yue Shen's mansion.

As long as Ying Zheng pacified the six countries, he could give him the copper box of the other five countries.

The copper box belonging to Qin had been sent to Yue Shen's mansion long ago.

The next day.

In the morning, Yue Shen dressed up and went to court in her carriage.

Tang Xi and Tian Yan were still practicing sword in the backyard.

He didn't know that when he went to court this morning, the court was shocked.

Such a big thing happened in Qin, and even the Queen Mother was involved in it, which shocked all the officials of Qin.

Then, Ying Zheng used thundering means to pull out all those who had cooperated with Lao Ai or even became Lao Ai's party members.

In the court, there are more than 20 people standing in front of Ying Zheng who are involved in the Lao Ai case, and their official positions are high and low.

And there are not only these people, some people are not in Xianyang because of their official positions.

Of course, Lu Buwei got rid of his relationship with Lao Ai in order to avoid trouble.

Later, more than 20 officials were pulled out by Ying Zheng and executed one by one.

As the mastermind, Lao Ai was ordered to be executed by Ying Zheng.

……

……

It was noon.

It was time to rest, and Feiyan appeared as usual.

But this time she did not take Tian Yan away, but came to Tang Xi.

She said,"The Moon God is back, and she brought two people with her."

"Who? Someone from the Yin-Yang family?"Tang Xi asked curiously.

Fei Yan shook her head.

"They should be Qin Wangzheng's men, and one of them is Zhao Gao, the Minister of the Imperial Chariots." Feiyan explained to Tang Xi.

"It should be Ying Zheng who asked him to come, but what is he doing here?"

Tang Xi frowned at first, then took Tian Yan and said,"Let's go and take a look first."

Fei Yan took the two of them to the main hall of the mansion and found Zhao Gao standing there with a little eunuch.

"Master...Mr. Tang." Zhao Gao was about to call him Master when he saw Tang Xi, but when he saw Tang Xi glaring at him, he immediately changed his words.

""What does Ying Zheng want you to do?"

Tang Xi walked in alone and asked calmly.

The eunuch beside him looked surprised when he heard this. In the Qin State, there are people who dare to call the King of Qin by his name!

"How dare you! How dare you address the king by his name? The eunuch shouted directly.

Zhao Gao's face suddenly turned cold.

He suddenly turned around and swung his hand.

With a crisp sound, the eunuch's eyes were full of stars.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Tang, this eunuch is ignorant, please don't be offended."Zhao Gao said with a bow.

"I won't take it personally."

Tang Xi laughed and continued to walk over.

When he walked in front of the eunuch, the eunuch's pupils suddenly contracted, and an arm fell off his left shoulder, drew an arc in the air, and fell to the ground.

"When I see Ying Zheng after I go back, I will tell him that I built this place." Tang Xi snorted coldly, sat on the main seat in the main hall, and then looked at Zhao Gao:"Zhao Gao, tell me, what happened?"

""Yes."

Zhao Gao shuddered and lowered his head quickly, glaring at the eunuch fiercely.

He told Tang Xi what happened in the court today and how Lao Ai and others were dealt with.

Then it was time to confer rewards.

Ying Zheng conferred a title on Tang Xi.

The name was the Marquis of Cixue.

This matter was immediately opposed by Lu Buwei. After all, the matter of conferring a title also depends on merit.

Lu Buwei used Tang Xi's poor merits to oppose Ying Zheng.

Most of the people in the court were Lu Buwei's people, so of course they supported Lu Buwei.

Ying Zheng frowned. Many people strongly opposed Ying Zheng conferring a title on someone they didn't know. Ying Zheng overcame all objections and gave Tang Xi a title.

But it was just a title, without any real power or fiefdom.

In addition, he gave five thousand gold, a mansion, and more than twenty maids and followers.

"This Ying Zheng, this tactic of killing first and reporting later is really beautiful."Tang Xi took over the order from Ying Zheng with a helpless smile on his face.

He had told Ying Zheng a long time ago that he didn't like to be promoted to an official position.

As a result, Ying Zheng suddenly conferred a title on him. Although it had no real power, this spread to Xianyang and even the ears of the other six countries.

That meant that Tang Xi was his Ying Zheng's man.
