A young man was sitting in a gorgeous mansion, drinking wine boredly. He didn't even look at the singer and dancer in the center of the banquet. He just lowered his head and drank the wine. His long and messy hair covered his lack of energy.
His eyes looked so decadent.
"Master, are you not satisfied with these concubines?" The young man on the side watched the dancer's dance with great interest.
"Uncle, do you know why Brother Wang doesn't care about me?" the decadent young man Cheng Xi asked, looking at the young man beside him.
Since he was brought back from Qiliting, he has not been imprisoned, nor has he been convicted and imprisoned. No one from the Tingwei and Guowei Mansion even came to him, as if he did not exist.
He was waiting for the edict from the palace, or the trial from Tingwei Mansion and Guowei Mansion, but there was none of these, and his brother Wang didn't even ask.
This made Cheng Yu feel even more powerless. Even if Brother Wang summoned him, reprimanded him, and killed him, he would admit it, but just ignoring him made him suffer even more.
"Isn't this better?" Qi Liting shook his head and smiled.
Originally, he was also going to be taken away by Fang Cheng, but the people in Fang Cheng seemed to be more concerned about his ancestor Chuili Ji, so they forgot about him. At that time, he happened to be eating and drinking at Jun Chenglong's place in Chang'an.
He was discovered by Fang Cheng and thus escaped disaster.
"I want to know what Brother Wang thinks, and what those people in the court think!" Cheng Xi really wanted to know what Xianyang planned to do with him, instead of being ignored like this.
"Think about it from another angle. Your brother is the king of Qin. If he interferes, you will definitely die. Therefore, he can only choose to pretend that he doesn't know and hand you over to me to be dealt with by the patriarchal clan.
In this way, no one in Tingwei Mansion and Guowei Mansion will bother you anymore. After all, the patriarchal clan has already dealt with you, so it is not their turn to take care of you.
The other big shots are not fools, and they all understand that your brother Wang does not want to kill you, so naturally they will not talk too much to create trouble!" Qili Ting saw it clearly.
Ying Zheng made it clear that he did not want to kill Cheng Xi, so he pretended not to know that Cheng Xi was back and ignored him, which was the best way.
When other ministers saw Ying Zheng's attitude, they would naturally not risk offending Ying Zheng by saying such a thing again.
The final result is that big things are reduced to small things, small things are reduced to nothing, and adults are treated as if they don’t exist.
"Live a good life, there is nothing wrong with being a rich man!" Qili Ting drank the last bottle of wine and stood up to salute.
"Uncle Clan is also going to leave me?" Cheng Xi asked, looking at Qili Ting who was getting up.
"If you don't leave, you will really have to pick up Long Yangjun's leftovers!" Qi Liting said with a smile.
After confirming Cheng Xi's safety, he could leave with peace of mind.
The reason why he hesitated to leave was because he knew very well that if Cheng Yu died, then Ying Zheng would be truly alone. There would be no emotion left in the eyes of such an emperor, which may not be a good thing for the empire.
.
As long as Cheng Yu is still alive, even if the brothers don't meet, the family and brotherhood will still remain, and it will give Ying Zheng a little more humanity.
"Can't you take me away with you?" Cheng Xi also wanted to leave with Qili Ting.
"You must stay!" Qili Ting said seriously.
"The most important reason why our Great Qin can occupy Guanzhong and dominate the world is that we, the Ying clan's descendants, will not fight among themselves. Your Majesty needs you!" Qi Liting explained.
"After going through so much, it's time for you to grow up and know what you want to do and what you should do!" Qi Liting stared at Cheng Xi, then turned around and left without looking back.
"Qili Ting has left!" However, as soon as Qili Ting left, news was uploaded from Chengyu Mansion to Yongcheng.
"Queen Mother, it's time to take action!" In the Palace of the Queen Mother Zhao in Yongcheng, a handsome and strong middle-aged man said while looking at the still charming Zhao Ji, holding two children in his arms.
"Chang'an Jun is Zheng'er's brother after all!" Zhao Ji still couldn't make up her mind.
"This is what threatens the king's position. The Chu clan could support his rebellion back then, so why not do it again?" Laodu looked at the hesitant Zhao Ji and encouraged him again.
"Kill!" Zhao Ji thought of Ying Zheng, and finally issued the Queen Mother's decree, ordering Zuo Gejie to lead 300 dead men to Cheng Yu's mansion in Chang'an County and order Cheng Yu to commit suicide.
"Chang'an Lord, please!" Zuo Gejie led people to surround Chang'an Lord's Mansion, personally carrying a pot of poisonous wine, three feet of white silk, and a dagger, and asked Cheng Xi to choose a way to die.
"He's here after all!" Cheng Xi looked at Zuo Gejie and smiled indifferently.
In Xianyang Wangji, the only one who can mobilize Zuo Gewei is his brother Wang. Sure enough, he still wants to die!
"Brother Wang really doesn't want to see me until he dies?" Cheng Xi looked at Zuo Gejie and asked.
Zuo Gejie's eyes flickered. He came here with the Queen Mother's will, not the King's. Even he knew very well that this was the intention of Marquis Changxin, not the Queen Mother and the King.
"Please Chang'an Jun commit suicide!" Zuo Gejie didn't say much else, he just placed the tray in front of Cheng Yu.
"Young master, no, even if the king wants the young master to commit suicide, there must be a clan decree and court officials to review it, instead of letting the young master commit suicide secretly like this!" After all, Cheng Yu still has some useful retainers, so he doesn't believe that Zuo Gejie is under the orders of Ying Zheng.
came.
It has been so many days, and if the king wanted to attack Cheng Xi, he would not wait until now, but would do it right after Qili Ting left.
Therefore, the disciples did not believe that this was what Ying Zheng meant, and there must be someone else up to something evil.
Cheng Xi looked at his guest, frowned, and looked at Zuo Gejie.
"Since you don't want to commit suicide, let's do it!" Zuo Gejie also knew that the matter could not be delayed. Behind Cheng Yu were Queen Mother Huayang, Changwen Jun, and Changping Jun. Once they reacted, his affairs would be ruined.
.
The three hundred dead soldiers rushed directly towards Cheng Xi, and the guards of Chang'an Jun's Mansion also immediately sensed something was wrong and started fighting with the dead soldiers.
"It's not the order from Brother Wang!" Cheng Xi, who had already picked up the poisoned wine, also knew that something was fishy, so he decisively threw the wine bottle out, drew his sword and fought with Zuo Ge.
Zuo Gejie waved the halberd in his hand. With his leader-level strength, it was too easy to kill Cheng Xi. In just three moves, the halberd was pressed against Cheng Xi's neck.
"Who ordered you!" Chengyu's long sword was knocked away, and the cold halberd was pressed against his throat, but he did not give in and asked Zuo Gejie.
"Why do you need to know!" Zuo Gejie shook his head and slashed with his halberd, slicing Chenglong's throat and drawing blood.
Cheng Yu felt the blood flowing out of his body, and his eyelids became heavier and heavier, eventually losing all light and falling into darkness.
】
"Clear the scene quickly!" Zuo Gejie leaned down, confirmed that Cheng Xi was dead, and immediately ordered the soldiers to clean up the scene, pretending that Cheng Xi committed suicide, and then took the people away.
