Da Qin: Confucianism, Dharma and Taoism

"Can you let me, can you let me think about it again?"

Mi Lian stood in front of Ying Yan with a pale face, and said tremblingly.

"Before, I have given you time to think about it, sister Lian, I can't give you more time. If you delay it any longer, it will delay my work."

Ying Yan shook his head and said regretfully.

"Give me three days... No, just give me two more days, please, Yan'er, just give me two days."

Mi Lian cried, she wanted to kneel down again, but Ying Yan grabbed her body and prevented her from kneeling down.

Ying Yan was silent for a moment and said: "Okay, then I will give you two more days, sister, I hope you can give me an answer after two days."

In fact, Ying Yan knew that Mi Lian had broken her defense and she had already made a decision.

It was just that the decision conflicted with her heart, so she couldn't agree to it directly for a while.

That's why she wanted two days of buffer time, so that she could give herself enough reasons and excuses.

Ying Yan gave her this opportunity.

"Thank you... Thank you..."

Mi Lian left the room in a daze, and Ying Yan followed her to see her off.

But after walking a few steps, Ying Yan stopped.

Just then, Mi Lian, who was facing Ying Yan, heard a voice from behind: "Sister Yan, who is that sister?"

It was the timid voice of a little girl.

Ying Yan said softly: "That's Mi Lian, you can call her Sister Lian."

The little girl said again: "I, I think I saw her crying."

"That's because Sister Lian thought of something sad, so she cried. Think about it, when you were a child, you were crying all the time."

Ying Yan said jokingly.

The little girl felt embarrassed when she heard it.

Mi Lian's body stiffened as she was about to leave. She knew that this was Ying Yan's intention, so that she could hear her sister's voice and see her sister's innocence before leaving.

She resisted the urge to turn around, gritted her teeth, and left here quickly.

Ying Yan sighed softly.

If possible, she didn't want to force Mi Lian like this.

Ying Yan knew that all this had nothing to do with Mi Lian. She was innocent. No matter what Changping Jun chose, Mi Lian had no power to refuse.

But now the two sides are in hostile forces. Ying Yan knows that being kind to the enemy is being cruel to herself. Even if it hurts Mi Lian, she will do it.

‘I just hope that after this, Sister Lian, you can live a stable life and no longer be so frightened. ’

Ying Yan touched Mi Xin's little head and blessed silently.

……

Xianyang, Zhangtai Palace——

“What happened to my brother? Why are you so angry?”

In Zhangtai Palace, Ying Yan did not seeHe asked Ying Zheng, who had a stern face and clenched fists with veins faintly visible, in front of him.

In fact, Ying Wei already knew what happened, but he couldn't take the initiative to say it.

Ying Zheng took a few breaths and gritted his teeth and said, "Before Gai Nie betrayed me, I gave him a chance to leave Xianyang, and I didn't issue a wanted order immediately, hoping that he could run away."

"Not long ago, I thought the time was almost right, so I issued a wanted order. A lieutenant led 300 soldiers to hunt down Gai Nie."

"Gai Nie, he dared to slaughter all 300 elite soldiers of my Great Qin!"

"I... I treated you well, and even let you take Jing Tianming away and give you a way out. Why do you treat me like this!"

"If it weren't for my kindness, how could you leave Xianyang Palace."

Ying Zheng's expression at this time was like a resentful woman who was dumped. I treated you with my heart, but you treated me like a scumbag!

The more Ying Zheng thought about it, the angrier he became. He slapped the table in front of him hard, letting the teacup on it shatter all over the floor.

The eunuchs and maids in the palace were so scared that they immediately knelt down and trembled.

When the emperor is angry, millions of corpses will be buried and blood will flow for thousands of miles. Although Ying Zheng would not do such a thing, if he was angry and killed all the eunuchs and maids in the palace, no one would say anything.

"Ahem... ahem... one by one, why do you all betray me? Am I really too soft-hearted?"

Ying Zheng was furious and coughed hard.

Ying Wei hurriedly said: "Brother Wang, calm down. Brother Wang is worth a lot of money. Why should you be angry for that vulgar man Gai Nie?"

However, Ying Wei also complained in his heart. The reason why Gai Nie killed those people was that he had no choice but to run away.

But no matter what Gai Nie had hidden, he did kill 300 Qin soldiers. Just this point, Gai Nie had committed a serious crime.

If only 300 people died, Ying Zheng would not be so angry. In wartime, let alone 300 people, 30,000 or 300,000 casualties would not be a problem.

What really made Ying Zheng angry was that he trusted Gai Nie so much, but Gai Nie repaid him like this.

As an emperor, what he hated most was that his kindness was rewarded with others’ flattery.

At this time, what Ying Wei did not do was to express his position: "Although Gai Nie is a high-level martial artist, he will certainly be seriously injured when facing 300 Qin soldiers."

"Brother Wang, there is no need to show mercy to him. Just issue a wanted order and bring him to justice, regardless of life or death."

Ying Zheng covered his chest and drank the medicine soup handed by the eunuch. He coughed twice and said, "I have asked Zhang Han to handle this matter."

"Third brother, I remember that you have a killer organization called Luowang under your command. In the past, Lu Buwei used Luowang to assassinate many nobles of the six countries."

"This time, you send enough people to hunt down Gai Nie!"

Ying Wei bowed and said, "Yes!"

This time, Ying Wei saw that Ying Zheng was really angry.

You should know that Ying Zheng despised assassins the most, so even though Ying Wei was in charge of Luowang, he never asked about 470.

This time, Ying Zheng actually thought of Luowang, which shows how much he hated it.

Gai Nie was cruel enough. Ying Zheng was already in poor health. After being mad at him, he probably lost a few months of his life.

"I have something else to do. Third brother, go first."

Ying Zheng didn't want Ying Wei to see his weak appearance, so he ordered him to leave.

Ying Wei said at this time: "Brother Wang, I came here this time to ask you for someone."

Ying Zheng asked in confusion: "Oh? Who?"

"I want Gao Jianli for a while."

Ying Zheng frowned: "Gao Jianli? Oh, third brother, you are talking about the musician who used to be in Yan State. He is dead."

"Dead?"

Ying Wei was stunned for a moment.

"Gao Jianli once tried to attack me with a jar. I spared him once because of his good performance."

"But it can't be three times. I gave him a chance, but he still wanted to kill me. How can I keep him? I'll just have him chopped off and fed to wild dogs."

Ying Zheng said calmly.

Hearing that Gao Jianli was dead, he died. Ying Wei naturally wouldn't feel sad.

"In that case, I'll take my leave first."

Ying Wei bowed and left.

When Ying Wei just left the gate of Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng couldn't help coughing again.

He covered his mouth with a white cloth, and it took a long time for him to stop.

When he took the white cloth away from his mouth, there was a bright red blood stain on it.
