More than ten princes were framed, and the winning general Lu also committed suicide in Tingwei Mansion. However, this did not stop Hu Hai and Zhao Gao from persecuting the emperor's relatives. In the back hall of Kangle Palace, ten princesses were brought in by the chambermaids.

Everyone walked into the apse, and three hundred palace guards held halberds and blocked all exits of Kangle Palace.

The princesses have lived in the palace since childhood and have never seen such a battle. Even some of the princesses who got married were arrested and imprisoned along with all three members of their husband's family at this time.

Among the princesses, the youngest was only five years old and was still an ignorant child, and the oldest was only in her thirties. Facing Hu Hai, they looked so confused and didn't know what crime they had committed.

At this time, everyone bowed their heads and said nothing, but Hu Hai, who was aloof, looked at these sisters with an angry face. They were all the daughters of the First Emperor, but they were not the same siblings as him. From this point of view, Hu Hai could not

Have mercy on anyone.

In the hourglass, fine sand leaked downward, and time passed minute by minute. Finally, Zhao Gao saluted Hu Hai to show respect, then took a step forward and shouted: "You are so brave, how dare you do it before the emperor."

When His Majesty was on tour eastward, he plotted a rebellion!"

"We are wronged!" Several princesses were trembling with fear. They always stayed at home and never went out. How could they rebel? The youngest princess Ying Xiuman was even more frightened and cried. She didn't know why her brother

If she wanted to catch herself and her sisters, she only knew that these people were very vicious.

Ying Xiuman originally lived in the palace. She was still very young and unmarried. However, the First Emperor passed away and the palace was occupied by Hu Hai. She lost her father's love and family affection, and no one would pamper her or support her anymore.

She, Ying Xiuman was even more at a loss what to do at this moment. After crying for a while, she ran towards the door, she wanted to leave here.

But the waiter guarding the door grabbed Ying Xiuman mercilessly//and threw her back. With the huge impact, Ying Xiuman was thrown hard. She vomited blood, her eyes were confused, and her hands kept moving.

She waved around, trying to catch something, but she was too young after all. After struggling for a while, she fainted.

The eldest sister Ying Yuanman was so angry that she shivered. She stood up angrily, pointed at the unconscious Ying Xiuman, and scolded: "Hu Hai, she is your sister. How can she rebel at such a young age? Do you really want to

To kill them all?"

Hu Hai was scolded by the eldest sister, and his face darkened. At this time, he was already the emperor above ten thousand people. How could she call him by his name? He snorted coldly. He pointed at Ying Yuanman and said angrily: "How dare you contradict me?"

!”

Ying Yuanman lost her mind in anger. She pointed at Zhao Gao and cursed angrily: "Traitor! You killed your eldest brother Fusu, do you want to kill our ten sisters?"

After Ying Yuanman cursed Zhao Gao, he pointed at Hu Hai and said bitterly: "Hu Hai, do you really want to wipe out family ties and kill the Ying family members quickly?"

Ying Yuanman pointed at Ying Xiuman on the ground and roared: "She...she is your sister!"

The room became extremely quiet, and all the servants looked at Hu Hai unconsciously. They thought in their hearts that Ying Yuanman's words would definitely persuade Hu Hai to turn the pot, and maybe he would let these princesses go, but Hu Hai did not do that.

He got up angrily, walked to Ying Yuanman, and glared at her for a moment. Hu Hai picked up the whip in the servant's hand and whipped it away with all his strength. Soon, Ying Yuanman's painful screams echoed in the hall.

Hu Hai vented his anger. At this time, he no longer had the intention to interrogate everyone. He walked out of the hall with heavy steps. When he was approaching the entrance of the hall, Hu Hai's hoarse voice sounded: "All of you must die!"

"

In the main hall, Ying Yinman, Ying Shiman, Huating Princess Ying Chanman, Ying Huiman, Ying Liman and others begged for mercy in pain, but Hu Hai's figure did not stay. Soon, he disappeared at the entrance of the main hall, and the main hall door opened again

It closed with a bang, Zhao Gao's cold eyes wandered over the several princesses, and he gave an odd order: "Prepare Bai Ling to strangle them all!"

...

Many people have heard that princesses were sentenced to death in the palace, but this kind of thing is a royal scandal, and everyone can only sigh and regret it, but there is nothing they can do.

But in the early morning of that day, drums were beating loudly in the city. Twenty government officials carried gongs and beat them in the street. Behind them, five hundred Qin soldiers escorted more than a thousand prisoners to the Shicao execution ground. These,

They were all high-ranking officials, ministers of civil and military affairs, and more than ten princes who were charged with treason.

The voices of grievances were heard endlessly, and the people's heated discussions were heard all around. The street was extremely noisy. On both sides of the street, Qin soldiers blocked the people with spears to maintain order. Behind the team escorting the prisoners, a very gorgeous car

The carriage headed towards the execution ground. This was Zhao Gao's carriage.

"It's three o'clock in the morning and noon has arrived." A civil servant shouted loudly. At this time, nearly a hundred executioners carrying swords walked onto the execution ground. There was silence all around. More and more people gathered, and the order began to become disordered. However,

This did not delay the execution. The executioners sprayed their swords with wine. Zhao Gao stood up, recognized the token, and rushed towards the execution ground. Amidst the screams, the executioners began to wave their swords, and the bloody heads were dropped one after another.

Rolling to the ground, the scene was horrific...

...

"The cold wind is compassionate to the heavens, but my heart is unfair. The sword drinks the blood of the world, how can I eat myself!..." In a tall government office, a young man brandished a sword in his hand and danced by the pond. He was tall and tall.

, with good features, he is Yingzi Gao, the fourth son of the First Emperor.

Ying Zigao was able to avoid this disaster because he went to Qidi to deal with some trivial matters not long ago and was not in the capital. However, time passed by. In the blink of an eye, today, on the execution ground, his brother was executed by Hu Hai's order, and the blood dyed the city Cao red.

, Moreover, Ying Zigao also heard that his sisters were also executed in the palace. This tragedy shocked the world and made the whole country mourn.

In anger, Ying Zigao, who rarely danced with a sword, waved his sword and wrote the poem just now. This poem expresses Ying Zigao's dissatisfaction and his worries about the future of the Qin State. Brotherhood can kill each other, and Hu Hai is so cruel.

.

But Zi Gao Geng knew that this matter would not end here. All the princes had been executed one after another, and the only one left alive was himself. Hu Hai would definitely try his best to frame himself and achieve his ulterior motives.

Although he can abscond and go to Qi, Wei, or Chu. In short, the world is so big that there is always a place for him to hide. But he has three wives, two children, and two sons. What will they do if he escapes?

How can it be so easy to escape with a family and a family? Ying Zigao decisively gave up his plan to leave Xianyang. When a man walks in the world, he must dare to act bravely. Thinking of this, Ying Zigao's mind flashed with the thought of Ying Jiang Lu committing suicide.

And fearless, perhaps, this is the real man.

But no matter what, Ying Zigao still hopes that he can continue to live. He is reluctant to let go of his wife and children, and he is reluctant to let go of his two sons. However, he must protect himself. Ying Zigao cannot drag down his family because of himself. The only way is that he has to take the initiative to ask for help.

Hu Hai asked for his life and died to save the family. But Ying Ziying knew that if Hu Hai was soft-hearted, maybe he would pardon her. As long as he was pardoned, Ying Ziying was ready to give up his huge fortune, hide in the mountains and fields, and live his whole life without caring about the world.

Making up his mind, Ying Zigao walked quickly to the study.

In Ganquan Palace, Hu Hai had just finished taking a bath in the hot springs. He felt a lot more relaxed. The unprecedented fatigue made Hu Hai feel sleepy. Accompanied by two concubines, he walked to Yongle Palace. At this time, a

A servant came quickly and whispered beside Hu Hai: "Your Majesty, Young Master Zigao has sent a memorial."

When Hu Hai heard Zi Gao's name, he couldn't help but stopped and took the memorial. It was written on a brocade handkerchief. Hu Hai probably read it once. Zi Gao was very sincere in the letter. The emperor had shown great care for him and admitted that he had been

He had made mistakes in certain things, had an affair in his position, etc. These were all insignificant confessions. Only the last sentence aroused Hu Hai's interest. In the letter, Zigao begged Hu Hai to kill him, hoping that he would die.

He was buried next to the Mausoleum of the First Emperor and will protect the Mausoleum of the First Emperor forever.

After reading the letter, Hu Hai was hesitant. He didn't know what trick Zi Gao was playing. After pondering for a while, Hu Hai handed the memorial to the chamberlain and asked the chamberlain to invite Zhao Gao. Then he walked slowly to Yongle Hall.

In the afternoon, light rain fell in patter, and there was crackling outside the main hall. It was the sound of raindrops hitting the eaves. Just when Hu Hai was nestling in Concubine Ji's arms, Zhao Gao, led by the chamberlain, walked slowly into the main hall, approaching Hu Hai.

When he was in front of him, Zhao Gao bowed and saluted: "I have seen your Majesty."

Hu Hai smiled and waved his hand: "Qing Zhao, please sit down."

A chamberlain brought a soft mat and placed it not far from Hu Hai's head. Zhao Gao bowed and sat on the soft mat. Looking at Hu Hai and his concubine, Zhao Gao felt a little unhappy, but at this time, Hu Hai had already been promoted to the ninth rank.

Self-respect is no longer the young master he once was, so at this time, Zhao Gao did not dare to act like a teacher in front of Hu Hai, so he could only ask softly: "Your Majesty has come to see me, what is the important matter?"

Hu Hai raised his head and looked at the chamberlain beside him. The chamberlain came over and handed Zigao's memorial to Zhao Gao. Zhao Gao looked at it and couldn't help but laugh: "Master Zigao can't sit still anymore?"

After the laughter, Hu Hai said doubtfully: "He took the initiative to ask for help. I don't know what to do."

Seeing Hu Hai's hesitation, Zhao Gao couldn't help but laugh and said: "Zi Gao is a wise policy to protect himself. Many young masters and important officials in the court have committed crimes and implicated their families. Some even killed the Yi tribe and their families were destroyed. That's why Zi Gao came here."

Make a decision and ask your Majesty to die."

Speaking of this, Zhao Gao glanced at Hu Hai and continued: "However, why don't Your Majesty take this opportunity to promise Zi Gao to commit suicide to avoid future troubles?"

"I'm worried, will it cause trouble?" Hu Hai was still a little worried, but Zhao Gao said with a smile: "Your Majesty, if you don't take it, you will be blamed. I feel that I can agree to this matter."

Hu Hai lowered his head in thought again. I don’t know how long it took before he nodded in agreement. At this time, Zhao Gao smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I suggest that we increase efforts in the construction of Afang Palace and strive to complete it within five years, so that Your Majesty can live there."

How does Your Majesty feel about entering this huge palace?"

When Zhao Gao mentioned Afang Palace, Hu Hai couldn't help laughing happily: "I also have this intention. In addition, I will recruit 50,000 elite soldiers from all over the country to Xianyang to ensure that Afang Palace can be completed smoothly."

Zhao Gao bowed his hands and sang the promise, stood up and left. Looking at Zhao Gao's leaving back, Hu Hai narrowed his eyes slightly and fell into deep thought.

...

In the early morning, more than a hundred Qin soldiers escorted a eunuch and marched down the street. Half an hour later, the team arrived at Zigao's Yamen. After entering, the eunuch opened the imperial edict and Zigao knelt down anxiously.

On the ground, he lowered his head and waited. Soon, the eunuch's sharp voice sounded: "By God's blessing, the emperor called, Ying Zigao has confessed his serious sins and repented to me. Although I have the intention to forgive, the king's law is ruthless and cannot be tolerated. I will give you a special reward."

The young master has won a fortune of 100,000 yuan, which will be used as funeral expenses, and he will be buried in the east corner of the imperial mausoleum to show the emperor's great kindness. I admire this."

After listening to the imperial edict, Ying Zigao sat down on the ground. Hu Hai had indeed planned it for a long time and deliberately killed himself. Today, the edict was issued, and he might not be able to live anymore. Feeling anxious, Ying Zigao took the edict and walked backwards.

Go to the office.
