In the Palace of Xi Zheng, the movie king is performing.
Li Chen's face was expressionless, showing no emotion or anger.
Zhou Ping'an frowned, looking worried.
As for Li Yinhu's acting, it was a bit exaggerated. His face was full of resentment and heartache, and he tried to use exaggerated expressions to express his inner shock and anger.
"Lawless! Absolutely lawless!"
"The capital city is at the feet of the emperor. Not to mention the assassinations that have occurred one after another. Tonight, some gangsters actually robbed the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. In the more than three hundred years since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, such a bad thing has never happened. Your Highness, my brother, I beg you to please
, let my brother investigate this case thoroughly, and the mastermind behind the scenes will be caught and brought to justice!"
Sitting on a large chair with his elbows propped on soft cushions, Li Chen glanced at Li Yinhu and shook his head regretfully for his exaggerated acting skills.
This kind of poor acting lowered the standard of the entire drama.
He raised his hand, and Wan Jiaojiao beside him understood and immediately brought the water glass over.
Not cold or hot, just the temperature that Li Chen is most accustomed to.
Li Chen said calmly: "This incident has indeed slapped the criminal law and justice of the Qin Empire in the face."
Looking at Zhou Pingan, Li Chen said calmly: "Zhou Pingan, as the Minister of Punishment, you are the first responsible person. What do you have to say?"
Zhou Ping'an appropriately showed his grievances and fears, as well as some sophistry. He bowed deeply and said: "Your Highness, as the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, I have committed an unforgivable crime now that the prison of the Ministry of Punishment has been robbed."
fault."
"I'm just curious, why was everything fine before, but something happened when it was reported that King Zhao was going to kill this group of White Lotus cult members?"
As soon as these words came out, Li Yinhu next to him became furious. He pointed at Zhou Ping'an and yelled: "What do you mean, you bitch!? Do you mean that I sent people to rob the prison!?"
"The White Lotus is a cult. Their crimes are too numerous to mention, and cutting them into pieces with a thousand cuts is not an exaggeration. I am beheading the prisoner. This is the love of His Highness and the imperial court. How can I go to rob a prison!?"
"Zhou Pingan, if you don't make it clear today, I will never be done with you!"
Li Yinhu's roar echoed throughout the Xi Zheng Palace. Zhou Ping listened quietly, and then spoke softly: "King Zhao, I don't mean this, I am just curious. There is no need for King Zhao to make such a fuss."
"You dog..."
"alright."
Before Li Yinhu could continue his roar, Li Chen frowned and said, "After all, you are also a serious county king, ranked as a top grader. How can you behave like this when you roar like this?"
Li Yinhu gasped for air, looking like he was out of breath. He raised his hands to Li Chen and said: "Your Highness, the heart of my brother can be seen in the sun and the moon. I beg Your Highness to see clearly!"
"I will naturally find out."
Li Chen said calmly and suddenly asked a very nonsensical question, "How long has it been since the crime happened?"
"It has been an hour since I reported back to Your Highness."
Li Chen nodded and said, "Then it's almost time."
Li Yinhu's heart skipped a beat.
Out of his understanding of Li Chen, he knew that Li Chen would never say anything nonsense.
He suddenly had a very bad premonition in his heart, which was like a haze that immediately enveloped his entire mind.
Before Li Yinhu could think of a countermeasure, he saw Li Chen standing up and saying, "Let's go with me to see the prisoners of the White Lotus Sect."
