A swordsman in brocade clothes appeared in front of Long Qi.

The attack on Ligong was in full swing, and the shouts of killing soared into the sky could be heard faintly even in the remote forest in the distance.

Long Qi was very excited, and as long as Ying Zheng died, the revenge of destroying the country would be wiped out.

Until the appearance of the person in front of him made Long Qi feel a little uneasy.

"Who?" The soldiers beside Long Qi guarded the left and right with long swords, preventing the swordsman from continuing to move forward.

Long Qi waved his hand, signaling his subordinates not to be so nervous, and said, "You guys retreat first!"

"yes!"

In the remote forest, the soldiers quickly retreated.

The shadow of the forest is silent, and the cold wind whizzes.

"Why did you come here? My brother!"

The closest relatives met again after a long time, and there was no warmth as they imagined. Long Qi looked at Long Xiu in brocade clothes with a full of alertness and asked.

It is hard not to doubt the purpose of Long Xiu appearing here at this location and at this time.

As a military strategist, Long Qi is ruthless in the battlefield. All factors that appear unplanned are objects that need to be vigilant, even if this is his brother.

Excited in his heart, reason prevailed. Long Xiu took a step forward, but Long Qi waved the spear in his hand, "Brother, you should know the military path that my father passed on to us. The military is ruthless!"

Long Xiu smiled and said, "You have indeed grown a lot over the years. You are no longer the naive brother of the past!"

"Yes. People who are destroyed are just dogs who are lost. I have learned how to survive in disarray, and I have to thank my father for his military power when he was a child. Otherwise, now, I have become a tool for those traitors to ask for rewards from the tyrants." Long Qi said, his body was filled with cold air, making people feel indescribable indifference.

"What about you? My brother!"

"I have defected to the CRRC Mansion of the Empire and become a family-guarding dog." Long Xiu smiled self-deprecatingly.

"You actually surrendered to the tyrant Qin and helped the evildoer!" Long Qi was furious, as if the spear in his hand was about to penetrate his brother in the next moment.

However, Long Qi didn't do anything after all, and asked, "Why?"

"Why?" Long Xiu said with a cold face, "In the battle of Nanyang, Zhao Gao's elite nets were destroyed by Prince Qin. There were many desperate people around him who were lacking in his side. I took this opportunity to do some important things for him and won Zhao Gao's trust. Over the years, I had been involved in the empire. I originally wanted to find an opportunity to assassinate Ying Zheng like you to hold my father's grudge. But in the end, I gave up!"

"Is that right?" Long Qi sneered: "Have you lost the heart of a warrior in life with glory and wealth? Have you forgotten the hatred of destroying the country and the love of brotherhood?"

"No, you don't understand!" Long Xiu's face looked very painful.

"I don't understand!" Long Qi was excited and said sarcastically: "Look at your outfit, it's enough for hundreds of brothers around me to eat for half a month! So, you are greedy for glory and forget your original promise!"

"Brother!" Long Xiu roared, calming Long Qi. "You don't understand the power of Qin Emperor, because you have never approached him. But I have. Recently, I was only a dozen steps away from Qin Emperor. At that time, I was going to fight for my life, assassinate Qin Emperor like Jing Ke. But I finally gave up, do you know why?"

"Why?"

A look of pain began to appear on Long Xiu's face. Long Qi calmed down and asked when he looked at his brother like this.

"Because just before that, Emperor Qin glanced at me. It is probably hard for you to imagine that the unintentional gaze made me not even have the courage to get up. I crawled at his feet and didn't dare to move until Ying Zheng left." Long Xiu didn't feel a trace of tears flowing out of his face, showing his weakness.

Long Qi put his elder brother's shoulder and said, "Brother, this time it's different. We will definitely succeed!"

Long Xiu shook his head and said, "I came this time just to ask you to leave with your men and horses quickly. Don't follow Zhao Xie anymore!"

"What! Why?" Long Qie asked in confusion.

"If I'm not mistaken, this mutiny was all expected by Ying Zheng. Zhao Gao is afraid that he has captured Zhao Xie at this moment. It will be too late if you don't leave!"

"But" Long Qi's thoughts were confused. He couldn't figure it out. Finally, he grabbed Long Xiu's hand and said, "Brother, let's go together."

"No, I stay by Zhao Gao's side, and I have my own purpose. You can leave quickly, take your hundreds of brothers and leave immediately and return to the south of Chu. There are dangerous mountains and rivers, which can help you survive smoothly."

Long Xiu looked at Long Qie, and after saying that, he turned around and left.

………

In the palace, the rebellious army and horses were in great momentum.

Chen Rong was originally a general of Zhao State, and most of the soldiers around him were surrendered by Zhao State. At this moment, for a goal, they quickly inserted into the Li Palace where Ying Zheng was like an arrow.

Regardless of casualties and costs, this fierce military use like an assassin made even the elite Qin army around the First Emperor not gain any advantage, but instead retreated step by step.

Wang Li stood on the corridor outside the front hall of Li Palace, anxiously looking at the situation ahead, but was helpless.

Wang Li led his troops to fight, but he was responsible for defending the emperor, so he could only stand here and do something anxious.

"How is the arrangement?" Wang Li asked the captain beside him and said.

"Which wooden boards and stones were brought from the palace, and a temporary layer of outer trenches were built. If the rebels rushed over, they could delay their offensive."

"It's not enough!" Wang Li murmured: "Go to find materials and build a layer of trenches. The safety of His Majesty the Emperor is of great importance, and there is no need to be misunderstood!"

"Yes, sir!"

Just as the captain turned around and left, Wang Li saw the attack formation of several sharp cones of the rebels on the periphery suddenly stagnated.

"What's going on?"

Wang Li was a little confused, but then the rebels were in an extremely fierce attack, but gradually retreated and retreated.

Not long after, Meng Tian walked quickly towards Ligong.

At this time, Meng Tian suffered some minor injuries and her hair was scattered.

"General, what's going on?" Wang Li asked.

"It's General Wang Ben! General Wang led three thousand cavalry troops and attacked Chen Rong's camp outside the city a moment ago. After that, he followed the situation and chased the rebels from behind and killed the rebels into chaos. At this moment, the rebels had retreated to the city wall. I came to ask His Majesty the Emperor for his orders. How should we deal with this rebels?"

"Father!" Wang Li's joy was beyond words, and he immediately said, "General, come with me!"

The palace was empty and there were only candlelights reflected from a distance. On the imperial desk, the bamboo slips around Ying Zheng were already piled up very high.

"Your Majesty, the rebels are besieged. The last general comes to ask for his order, should he kill or stay?"

On the distant throne, Ying Zheng was flipping through the bamboo slips in his hand. He heard Meng Tian’s words, but he did not look up, but said a word lightly, "Kill!"

The voice was very light, but it was very far away. Meng Tian reported to leave, and he understood that after tonight, this Zhao land would probably cause a bloody storm!

...

The sun rose, and in the palace, the burning smell mixed with blood and energy, the Qin army was transporting the corpses on the battlefield and cleaning up the ruins of the battlefield last night. Li Si held his hands behind him and looked indifferently at the scene in front of him.

"Prime Minister, please ask Your Majesty for your love for me. We are really not rebellious spies!"

A team of soldiers escorted several ministers and passed by Li Si.

These people were the ministers who came to the rebels that day and suggested mobilizing county soldiers to drive away the thieves. At this moment, they all became the subject of investigation and were taken away by the sergeant for interrogation.

When they saw Li Si, they seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and begged for mercy.

Li Si didn't even have time to pay attention to them. A chill rose in his heart. If he agreed to mobilize county soldiers that day, I wonder what would happen at this moment?

The reason why Li Si was stammering that day was because he saw the unusualness, so he never spoke.

But now, Li Si, who has a sensitive sense of touch, has already noticed where the emperor pointed his sword! But it is precisely because of this that Li Si does not feel like he is a different life.

After all, he and Prince Fusu have been very close to each other over the years! If he accidentally chooses in this storm, he, the Prime Minister of the Great Qin, may not be able to hold on for long!

"Master Prime Minister!"

Zhao Gao's sinister voice came, interrupting Li Si's contemplation.

"It's the CRRC Mansion Order!" Li Si replied calmly. For Zhao Gao, Li Si has always kept a distance of not far or near. "How is the rebel leader?"

"The leader of the rebel army was not as good as me, and he actually led his sword to commit suicide. I just apologized to Your Majesty. Your Majesty is kind and never blamed me."

"Is that true!" Li Si murmured. In fact, he was not interested in paying attention to Zhao Gao's destruction at this moment.

"Prime Minister, Your Majesty is in a bad mood at this moment. Prime Minister, please be careful when he meets the saint." Zhao Gao smiled on his face, showing his kindness.

"I'm in a bad mood?" Li Si said suspiciously. What can make His Majesty feel bad?

"Your Highness the Crown Prince just submitted a memorial, maybe it's because of this!"

Zhao Gao didn't know the content of the memorial, but he just guessed it with his instinctive intuition. However, he didn't know what it was. After all, after Qin Huang read the memorial, his face was really bad!

Li Si nodded and left the wrong way, but his heart was overturned!

What happened to the prince?

"Prime Minister, take a look!"

In the hall, Li Si picked up the bamboo slips thrown by Emperor Qin. But just after he took a look, sweat oozed out of his forehead!

The prince actually destroyed the Yin-Yang family!

But Li Si could not bear to think about it carefully, and Emperor Qin asked, "Prime Minister, what do you think about this?"

Li Si bowed his head and was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

Judging from the contents of the memorial, the prince has uprooted the Yin-Yang family. However, the essence of this matter does not lie in the Yin-Yang family, but in the attitude of the Qin Emperor.

The Yin and Yang family were looking for the elixir of immortal medicine for Qin Emperor. Li Si had a deep understanding of Qin Emperor's persistence in immortal medicine. Whether this matter is big or small depends entirely on Qin Emperor's intention at this time.

Thinking of what Qin Emperor did recently, he had already paved the way for the prince to ascend the throne in the future. But now such a thing happened, and the future situation suddenly became confusing, which really made Li Si feel confused.

Li Si understood that Qin Huang's seemingly random questioning was actually testing his attitude towards the prince.

But the problem is that Li Si cannot keep the emperor's pulse.
