Zhao Gao felt cold all over after hearing this. He had thought that Emperor Qin would investigate, issue instructions, and even ask Shang Jun to go to Chang'an to defend himself.
However, there was none of this that he expected, only Emperor Qin's extremely tough attitude, asking Shang Jun if he wanted to rebel.
If someone with a status like the "Twin Jewels of the Empire" was treated like "kill without teaching", he didn't dare to think about what kind of turmoil it would cause, and was stunned for a moment.
Emperor Qin saw Zhao Gao standing there blankly and making no move, so he said coldly: "What, do you have any objections?"
Zhao Gao quickly bowed and replied: "I don't dare, your majesty is wise. Lord Shang is an important minister of the country. Do you need to investigate clearly before drawing a conclusion?"
Emperor Qin looked at Zhao Gao coldly and said in a cold voice: "I need you to teach me how to do things?"
After speaking, he walked in front of Zhao Gao. His aura was as strong as a mountain, and Zhao Gao couldn't breathe.
Zhao Gao immediately knelt down and prostrated: "I don't dare, I am just thinking about my great Qin and your majesty. If you offend me, please punish me."
Zhao Gao knew the Qin Emperor's temper very well. If you were too tough, he would definitely be tougher than you. The only way was to give in first and maybe give him some advice.
Sure enough, Emperor Qin snorted coldly and said, "Get up, I'm not that stingy."
"I know you have doubts in your hearts. Why am I so mean to Mr. Shang? I don't bother to argue. If you are interested, just watch and tell Mr. Shang my will."
Zhao Gao stopped talking, sighed slightly in his heart, bowed and said: "I obey the decree."
As soon as Zhao Gao walked out of the palace, a sacred and majestic aura suddenly burst out from the distant direction. He couldn't help but look horrified and turned his head to look inside the palace.
I only heard Emperor Qin's voice coming from afar: "The secret guard has already found out that the Yuzhou Ding is at the Wei family in Shangqiu. Did you see it? That aura can only be found in Sheji artifacts. Now, do you still think I am being mean?
"
Zhao Gao bowed to the chief of the hall, and then slowly retreated, but there was one more doubt in his mind that he did not dare to think deeply about: Mr. Shang, would he really rebel? Or would he really dare to rebel?
…
At the Wei family in Shangqiu, Wei Yang felt restless. He started writing several times but felt unable to start. He sighed, threw the pen aside, and thought about going out for a walk.
As soon as he went out, a sacred and majestic aura suddenly rose into the sky in the backyard. Wei Yang's face changed, and his whole body flashed with the power of a master, and he rushed to the scene almost instantly.
In the backyard, a girl was holding a hairpin in her hand, staring blankly, somewhat at a loss.
Then I felt a burst of ecstasy. I didn't expect that a hairpin I found in the market turned out to be a legendary treasure.
When Wei Yang appeared in front of the girl, the girl hurriedly saluted and said, "Yan'er has met your grandfather."
Wei Yang felt the breath carefully and found that it came from the hairpin on the girl's hand, and it was still dissipating little by little. He couldn't help but said to the girl: "Yan'er, where did this hairpin on your hand come from?"
Wei Yan'er shook the hairpin in her hand and said mischievously: "Is this what my grandfather was talking about? Yan'er bought it at the market the day before yesterday. It only cost Yan'er three gold. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a rare treasure.
My grandfather has been alarmed. It seems that Yaner has made a lot of money."
After Wei Yan'er finished speaking, she handed the hairpin to Wei Yang and said, "It's just that Yan'er really doesn't know what's so wonderful about this rare treasure, so I'd like to ask my grandfather to help me take a look."
Wei Yang took the hairpin and input the power of the master, and then a trace of sacred majesty burst out from it.
Then in front of the two of them, the originally shiny hairpin seemed to suddenly lose its light, dimming little by little, and finally turned into ashes.
Wei Yan'er looked very anxious and tried to take the hairpin back, but in the end she only got a wisp of smoke. She couldn't help but sigh and shouted as if she was about to cry: "Grandpa, you..."
Wei Yang said calmly: "What's so sad? This is not a rare treasure at all, it's just a forgery, just something used to deceive people."
Wei Yaner said in confusion: "Grandpa, it really looks like a rare treasure."
Wei Yang smiled and said: "Fake ones are fake. Real exotic treasures can't be so easy to break. Okay, don't look aggrieved. Go back and pick out a treasure from my warehouse."
Wei Yaner was overjoyed: "Thank you, Grandpa."
Wei Yang smiled and left, but for some reason, he felt more and more restless.
Wei Yang took a walk by the South Lake and walked around slowly for an hour, but he still couldn't feel relieved.
Suddenly, a familiar aura appeared in his perception. He looked up and saw Zhao Gao floating in the air in front of the Wei Mansion. His voice spread far and wide: "Zhao Gao wants to see Mr. Shang. Please come up and talk to Mr. Shang."
Although Wei Yang had doubts, he still rose into the air, came to Zhao Gao, and said with a smile: "Zhongshu Ling, we meet again so soon. What do you want to see me for?"
Zhao Gao sighed slightly: "Shang Jun, please hand over the Yuzhou Ding. Your Majesty will be angry and it may be detrimental to Shang Jun."
Wei Yang put away his smile and said calmly: "Why did Zhongshu Ling say this? Didn't you also see it? It was just a lie. Besides, didn't you take the fake one with you?"
Zhao Gao said seriously: "You are really still in the Wei Mansion, aren't you?"
Wei Yang asked back: "How can it be true? How did Zhongshu Ling know that the Yuzhou Ding is in the Wei Mansion?"
"Is Mr. Shang pretending to be stupid? Didn't Mr. Shang feel the aura just now? If my prediction is correct, it must be in Shangqiu Weifu."
Wei Yang smiled brightly: "That's just a hairpin that my granddaughter bought at the market. It was mistaken for a rare treasure. I don't know who made it. It can emit such a breath."
"What about the hairpin? Can you let me take a look at it next?"
Wei Yang paused when he heard the words, and said truthfully: "After the strange aura erupted, it turned into ashes. I really can't take it out."
Zhao Gao...
After a long time, Zhao Gao sighed deeply and said: "Shang Jun, you know your Majesty's character. You will never give up until you achieve your goal. You can only have one tripod on either side, and it is only one of the nine tripods. Why should you hate Your Majesty for this?
?”
Wei Yang said with an unchanging expression: "What's the use of that Jiuding I want? If there is one, it wouldn't hurt to present it to Your Majesty, but if it doesn't exist, I can't change it."
Zhao Gao couldn't bear it anymore: "Shang Jun, do you know what message His Majesty asked me to bring to you?"
"Oh," Wei Yang said in surprise, "Did His Majesty have any oral instructions? Why didn't Zhongshu Ling say it earlier?" Then he smiled and said, "It's okay to say it now."
Just listen to Zhao Gao say word by word: "Your Majesty asked me to ask you: Do you want to rebel?"
If Wei Yang was struck by lightning, he finally understood where his uneasiness came from. Was it a warning from God?
Zhao Gao saw that he was silent and persuaded: "Shang Jun, do you really want to use Jiuding as a sacred weapon to establish a country and become king? Why don't you want to let go."
Wei Yang said coldly: "I said no, it means no. Your Majesty is wise and can make his own decision."
Zhao Gao glanced at Wei Yang with a complicated expression: "In that case, please pay more attention. I will say goodbye now."
After saying that, he turned around and left, heading straight to Chang'an.
…
In the Yangxin Hall, Zhao Gao completely reported his experience in Shangqiu to Emperor Qin.
Emperor Qin had no expression on his face and said calmly: "It seems that he is determined to have his own way and is determined to rebel."
Zhao Gao looked complicated and hesitated to speak. In the end, he just sighed in his heart and did not dare to persuade him again.
"Come here to convey my message. Wei Yang is plotting a rebellion. I have ordered the Lord of Wu'an, Gongsun Qi, to lead troops to attack him. We must capture Wei Yang alive and take him back to Chang'an for trial."
"I want everyone in the world to see that those who disobey me will not end well."
