Chapter 201: The Minister of the Brachialis
The guards carried Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang's bodies out. The ministers came to their senses when they saw Ying Zheng safe and sound. The chaotic hall gradually became quiet.
Ying Zheng seemed to have recovered, and got up and took my hand and said to me, "National Master! This time I am not a national master. The Lone King is so inauspicious!"
"King! This is my duty, but it's a hasty matter that scares the king!"
"What magic weapon did the national master just used to save my life? Can I make my view?"
I had no choice but to take out the flying knife from my sleeve and hand it to Ying Zheng.
"Can this knife really fly up by itself?"
"King, this is the magic weapon that we have practiced for many years! Although this knife is small, it is reassuring and is in line with my heart!"
"Will you be able to take the head of a person thousands of miles away?"
I can only tell you based on the truth: "Master! My magic power is limited, and this knife can only fly within a radius of ten meters. I can't control it any further. Moreover, I must concentrate and not be distracted when using this knife. So I didn't dare to use this knife for a while just now because I was afraid of hurting the king by accident!"
"Hahaha! The national master has this magic weapon! In the future, as long as the national master is by my side, I will not be afraid of anyone assassinating me." Ying Zheng laughed and handed back the flying knife in his hand to me.
Seeing Ying Zheng like this, I felt relieved and put the flying knife in my sleeve.
At this time, I heard someone shouting behind me: "King! The national master should be punished for his crime!"
I turned my head and saw that the person who spoke was Prime Minister Li Si.
Alas! What I worry most is that I am coming!
Only then did Li Si say, "King, according to my Qin law, all the ministers who serve in the hall shall not hold a ruler; all the doctors shall hold troops, all the soldiers shall be held by His Highness, and they shall not go to the hall unless there is an imperial edict."
That means that when the ministers go to the palace to see Ying Zheng, they are not allowed to bring any weapons. The guards can only stay outside the hall. Without the imperial edict of the King of Qin, they are not allowed to enter the hall. This is indeed clearly stipulated in the Qin law, and this is also to prevent assassins from assassinating. However, in this way, it is not convenient for the people in the hall to protect the King of Qin.
"The national master has used such a magical weapon in desperation. It can be seen that the national master has this flying knife hidden in his sleeves every day. His heart is unpredictable! King," Li Sili continued with confidence.
"What's unpredictable? Didn't you see the national master saving me just now? If the national master hadn't used the flying knife, I would have been murdered! What did you do just now?" Ying Zheng seemed a little angry.
"King! My assistants only know how to act according to the law, so the king should do the same! Otherwise, how can we convince the public? The national master just saved the king and made great contributions, but he went to court with a flying knife every day and never reported to the king. This is a serious crime of beheading, and the merit cannot be offset!" Li Si chased him reluctantly. Everyone in the palace also discussed it.
"The original intention of the law is to prevent assassins. Now the national guru has blocked the assassin for me. I think the national guru should not only not be punished, but also deserves a heavy reward!" Ying Zheng's stubborn temper also came up, as if he was going to embarrass Li Si!
I was very moved when I saw Ying Zheng protecting me like this! What's more, I was indeed wrong with this matter! I was about to speak when I heard Li Si say, "If the king wants to act alone and reward the national teacher, I will naturally not dare to go against the king's intentions. But once this example is made, in the future, the ministers will carry weapons on the grounds of protecting the king's safety. What should I do? Besides, the king has two disciples of the national teacher who are in charge of the emperor. They should also have flying knives. The national teacher is loyal, but can the national teacher guarantee that other disciples are loyal to the king?"
Li Si's words were reasonable, and Ying Zheng was speechless.
At this time, many ministers in the palace stood up to support Li Si.
Ying Zheng stared at Li Si with an unhappy expression and said, "What should the Prime Minister say in his opinion!"
"The national master saved the king, but he would not die, but he would have to hand over the flying knife and drive out of Qin! All the disciples of the national master should also deal with this." I don't know where to offend Li Si, so he bit me tightly.
"Bold! The national teacher is a cultivator, how can you impose the law on him? You have seen the national teacher Taoism, magic and immortal arts with your own eyes. Kunpeng, who is as big as a hill, will come immediately. If the national teacher is not good for me, how can I still talk to you here? His two disciples have not been wrong since they were appointed as the minister! Li Si, you are too worried..."
"King..." Li Si still wanted to speak.
"Okay! I know you are strict in law, so let's do it! The national master and his two disciples who served as the flying knives, I will temporarily take them over. Today, the national master saved my life, and I will not give me another reward!"
"King..."
"Enough...this matter is all right, don't mention it anymore!" Ying Zheng suddenly became furious, and no one in the hall dared to speak.
He turned his head and whispered to me: "National Master, don't worry, just hand over the flying knife for the time being and block everyone's mouths. I'll find a way slowly!"
I was very moved when I heard Ying Zheng say this, and quickly took out the flying knife from my sleeve and handed it on my hands and said, "Prime Minister Li Si's words are reasonable, and this is indeed wrong! My two apprentices often accompany the king on their side. How dare I bring the flying knife? Their flying knife is placed in their living place, and I immediately ordered someone to take it and hand it over to the king."
"Prime Minister Li! You are satisfied now." Ying Zheng glanced at Li Si and left...
The ministers dispersed, and Li Si glanced at me with his triangular eyes and walked out.
Since the last court meeting, Yan State has completely angered King Ying Zheng of Qin. After several months of preparation, Ying Zheng sent Wang Jian to defeat Prince Dan of Yan, occupying most of Yan State's territory, and seized Jicheng, the capital of Yan State. King Xi of Yan fled far away to Liaodong. In order to save his life, he actually killed his son Prince Dan and presented his head to Ying Zheng. The selfishness and ugliness of human nature are really revealed to the old man King Xi of Yan! However, Prince Dan should not anger Ying Zheng. Don't he understand that the eternal rule of this world is the prey of the jungle. Will the wolf talk about friendship with the sheep and have a side relationship? Take a step back and say that since he decides to assassin Ying Zheng, he must be fully prepared and every detail must be taken into consideration. However, the assassin he chose Qin Wuyang was a big failure!
Ying Zheng temporarily stopped his thunderous anger after seeing Prince Dan's head and stopped his attack on Yan State.
I did not participate in the attack on Yan State. After the last incident, I became cautious in dealing with things. Every day I just closed the door and studied how to repair the spacecraft with Manticusma, Yifazhe and the crew of the spacecraft. In addition, I also organized my tribe members to teach each other the knowledge and technology about the spacecraft that I knew, and formulated a complete restoration plan. As long as there is sufficient materials, I can start repairing it immediately.
King Ying Zheng of Qin seemed to be very sad about confiscating my flying knife. He often came to my mansion in person to discuss plans to conquer the six countries with me. I was happy to offer suggestions, because my ultimate goal was to destroy the six countries. Ying Zheng could not draw any troops to mine for me even if the six countries were destroyed.
Most of the minerals I need are in Chu State. So I strongly advocated the attack on Chu as soon as possible.
