Chapter 325 Zhao Gao was demoted and went to hang himself
Zhao Gao, who was crawling on the ground, knew that his mouth must be harder than a dead duck. Since Feng Quji had already told him that this matter was taken over, Zhao Gao could not reveal a trace of it. Any trace of whine leaked from his mouth, then what was waiting for him would definitely be the word "death".
"Come on, take Zhao Gao down for me." The First Emperor shouted angrily at the guards on both sides. The First Emperor was a person who could not tolerate sand in his eyes, and he could not tolerate betrayal, especially Zhao Gao, who served him all day long.
"Your Majesty, please spare your life."
"Your Majesty, I'm confused for a moment because of my face." Zhao Gao was pulled by the guards beside the First Emperor and shouted loudly.
Zhao Gao's voice was getting farther and farther away, and all the civil and military officials were all bowing their heads and pretending to be ostrich. Everyone knows that it is better to stop talking when His Majesty is angry. Now, speaking is to cause trouble for yourself.
"Li Chen, what do you think about Zhao Gao's words?" Shihuang asked Li Chen.
"Since Lord Zhao doesn't admit it, it's better to ask Feng Quji about this matter. Let these two parties confront each other and make it clear about this matter." Li Chen said slowly.
The Xu Jing caught was Feng Quji's disciple. Now it is a foregone conclusion that Feng Quji was punished. What Li Chen did not expect was that Zhao Gao sold Feng Quji so decisively, which was even more decisive than Li Chen sold Adcs in the Summoner's Canyon in his previous life. Since copper ingots were found in the warehouse of the Ministry of Justice, Zhao Gao was naturally inevitable. What specific crimes could be convicted of Zhao Gao depends on whether Feng Quji was willing to bear them all.
In Li Chen's opinion, Feng Quji was mostly unwilling to do so. You should know that these clans held family interests first in this era. Now Feng Quji is the pillar of Feng's family. Even if he is not in the court, there are many disciples of Feng Quji in this court. If Feng Quji does not die for a day, he will have a place in the court of the Qin Dynasty. But if Feng Quji is gone, it will be cold and the Feng family will not be far away from decline by then.
"Xuan Feng goes to the hall." The First Emperor gave the order with a gloomy face.
The eunuch hurriedly left, and the atmosphere in the court fell into an awkward situation. It was heard that some ministers who had a deep relationship with Zhao Gaofeng Quji were already sweating profusely at this time, for fear of being involved in the case.
After about half an hour, the little eunuch who went to Feng's mansion to send the imperial edict had already returned. But he was alone when he went there, and he was still alone when he came back. This made the civil and military officials in the court mutter, why is Feng Quji still brave enough to resist the imperial edict and disrespect it?
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."
"Feng Quji, he committed suicide by hanging himself." As soon as the little eunuch entered the hall, he immediately knelt on the ground and said with trembling all over.
"This Feng Quji is really bold and arrogant. Did I let him die? Or did he really think that if he dies, he will die." The First Emperor said with a gloomy face.
Feng Quji died, and suicide seemed to be his best choice. If Feng Quji fell into the hands of the Black Ice Platform, he might not be more tough than Xu Jing. He was not sure that he could resist the punishment of the Black Ice Platform, so suicide was the only way to take all the responsibility. Feng Quji's death may involve Zhao Gao, but he could definitely clear Hu Hai from this matter.
"The Feng Mansion was seized, and all the Feng family members were used as labor service within three generations. Zhao Gao was demoted to a commoner and would never be hired." The First Emperor issued an order with a dark face. Feng Quji's death made the First Emperor angry, and his death also took away the truth of the entire case.
After the First Emperor's order, the civil and military ministers in the court knew that Zhao Gao was really cold this time, and Feng Quji was even colder. It was estimated that the grave grass would have to be more than two meters high in a few months. Without the support of these two people, Hu Hai would be a waste. In this court, the Fusu Party would be the dominant family in the future.
"You can actually develop your power into the Ministry of Justice and the City Guards. Will you put the knife on my neck next time? Li Chen, go check it, I must find out the truth about this matter." The First Emperor said angrily.
"I obey the order." Li Chen said respectfully to the angry First Emperor.
Seeing this scene, the civil and military ministers in the court knew that this time, I was afraid that the city guards and the Ministry of Justice would have a major reshuffle. As the saying goes, the money fell and the money was scattered. Some officials who were not entangled with Feng Quji and Zhao Gao were already thinking about how to show their loyalty to Li Chen. As for those who were labeled as Feng Dang and Zhao Dang, they could only ask for more blessings at this time.
Xianyang City, Lijiazhuang.
Li Chen, who had gone to court, was so happy. Now Feng Quji committed suicide and Zhao Gao was demoted to the people. The words of the First Emperor's words of not being hired were the imperial edicts. This means that Zhao Gao had graduated from an official position in his life, and the best result in the future was nothing more than being a rich man. As for Hu Hai, Li Chen actually didn't want to touch him at the beginning. First, Hu Hai, who lost Feng Quji and Zhao Gao, was just a waste. Second, the tiger poison did not eat his son. According to Li Chen's understanding of the First Emperor, the First Emperor was a person who paid great attention to old love. The murder of my son would never happen to the First Emperor. What Li Chen could do was to keep pressing Hu Hai steadily to ensure that Fusu could sit in that position. After Fusu sat in that position, there would inevitably be a chance to take Hu Hai's life.
"Mr. Marquis, what medicine did you feed Xu Jing? Why did he become obedient as soon as he drinks it?" Zhao Que asked.
"It's just a cup of ordinary white water. At that time, Xu Jing's mental pressure had reached the critical point. His spirit could no longer support it, but his will was resisting. And that glass of water was the last straw that overwhelmed his will. His subconscious would tell him that it was the cup of medicine that he asked him to say, so that he would have a reason to not persist." Li Chen answered Zhao Que's questions and answered.
"Mr. Marquis, but I clearly saw you dripping a few drops of pink liquid into that glass of water." Although what Li Chen said seemed to make sense, Zhao Que still asked the question in his heart.
"What are you talking about? How could I have something like Guaiguaishui?" Li Chen retorted.
"Mr. Marquis, what a good water? I didn't say anything a good water?" Zhao Que seemed to understand. It turned out that what Xu Jing said was a thing called a good water...
"Don't ask so much, please bring Zhao Gao over to see if you can ask anything." Li Chen quickly changed the topic. He couldn't let people know what Guaiguai Water was. After this guy was spread, he, the marquis, was still a flower-picking thief.
Zhao Que was anxious to ask someone, so he didn't ask any more questions. Li Chen pinched half a bottle of pink liquid left in his hand, and didn't know if this thing was useful to someone with a physically incomplete body like Zhao Gao.
