Zhao Gao thought that Li Shui would take revenge, but he didn't expect that the revenge would come so quickly or be so straightforward.

In battles above the court, shouldn't there be strategizing, insinuations, and killing people invisible? How can anyone frame someone for treason right away? And if the frame-up is so clumsy, doesn't it follow the rules?

Ying Zheng also didn't believe it. He looked at Li Shui and said, "Did you really catch the assassin?"

Li Shui said: "I really caught Zhao Gao's accomplice."

Zhao Teng thought to himself: "Huai Guzi is very focused in what he says."

Ying Zheng said a little tiredly: "I am a little tired today."

Li Shui said: "If Your Majesty is too lazy to go to Shang Jun's palace, I can bring the assassin into the palace."

The courtiers were all a bit speechless. Everyone could see that the emperor didn't really believe what Li Shui said, so he was too lazy to follow him around. How could this man go even further?

Li Shui saw that Ying Zheng was silent, obviously thinking of a reason to refuse, and couldn't help but feel a little helpless, thinking: "What happened to the emperor of Qin? He caught the assassin, and he is indifferent?"

If Ying Zheng knew what Li Shui was thinking, he would probably sigh and say, "You talk about rebellion all day long, I'm used to it."

Fortunately, Li Xin said from the side: "Your Majesty, if you don't go there, how can you clear Lord Zhao Gao's innocence?"

Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Gao and said, "That's all, let's go and have a look."

Zhao Gao couldn't laugh or cry, he felt complicated, and he didn't know whether he should be grateful or not.

Li Shui was in high spirits and immediately sent flying horses to Shangjun's courtyard to prepare.

An hour later, Ying Zheng led thousands of troops to the Shangjun Courtyard in a mighty manner.

All the people from Shangjun's courtyard came out to welcome the emperor and respectfully invited the emperor in.

After Ying Zheng entered, the craftsman posted a large piece of paper outside. The price list was written on the paper with a brush.

The courtiers' faces turned green, and they all looked at Li Shui: "Exiled Immortal, are you bringing us to see the rebels, or are you here to make money?"

Li Shui said: "I didn't force you to go in. But it would be bad if this traitor confessed indiscriminately and recruited you adults."

After a slight threat, Li Shui and Li Xin slipped into Shang Jun's courtyard.

The craftsmen blocked the gate and shouted at the top of their lungs: "My lords, decide your own levels and pay voluntarily."

Courtiers, you look at me and I look at you. I feel that I really have to go in today. Who knows who the so-called rebel will bite? If he bites him and he is not there, he will inevitably be in trouble.

Although he would not die unjustly, it would be bad if the emperor had a grudge in his heart.

So the courtiers donated generously.

Wu Yue and others entered at a 10% discount according to the standard of banishing immortal friends.

Chunyu Yue and others entered at a 99% discount according to the standards of banished immortal friends.

Others bought full-price tickets with a sad face. As for those who bought monthly or annual passes, none of them bought them.

While collecting the money, the craftsman advised the courtiers: "My lords, I advise you to buy monthly tickets. My Lord Banished Immortal has great magical powers, and you will definitely have to frequent Shang Jun's Villa in the future..."

The courtiers all had itchy palms. If they didn't think they were gentlemen, they would have slapped the craftsman long ago.

After everyone arrived, Li Shui led the way and led everyone into a small courtyard.

The courtyard was very quiet and clean. Li Shui led everyone to the main room and opened the two doors.

Inside there was a neatly washed and neatly dressed man, kneeling on a mat and reading a book.

When the man saw Li Shui and others coming, he immediately stood up and said loudly: "The sinner Hei Tan has met all of you sirs."

Ying Zheng looked at Li Shui strangely: "Is this person the rebel you mentioned?"

Li Shui replied: "Exactly."

Ying Zheng shook his head helplessly. The man in front of him was fair-skinned, energetic, well-mannered, and polite. How could he look like a prisoner? Moreover, he had no scars on his body, and it seemed that he had not been tortured.

Such rebels are really unheard of.

Ying Zheng felt that Li Shui was simply lying. Fortunately, the person who lied was Li Shui. If it had been anyone else, Ying Zheng would have punished him long ago.

Zhao Gao also smiled and said: "Master Huai, how much did you spend to hire this person?"

Before Li Shui spoke, Hei Tan said sincerely: "I was not hired by the Banished Immortal. I was captured after failing to assassinate the Banished Immortal."

Zhao Gao asked calmly: "You didn't see any scars on your body, why did you confess?"

Heitan said: "Master Banished Immortal is very elegant. When I met him next time, I deeply admired him and confessed voluntarily. He told me everything he knew and told me everything I wanted to say."

Zhao Gao couldn't help but grin. This man told lies with open eyes, and he said it with all his heart. How could he do it?

Zhao Gao added: "You must know that if you call yourself an assassin, it is a capital crime."

Heitan was fearless: "The next moment I was confused, I actually tried to assassinate the banished immortal, which is a capital crime. Even if the banished immortal is magnanimous and spares my life, I have no shame in living in this world. And I am still alive today just to correct one person,

To prevent this person from hurting others in the dark again and framed the immortal."

Zhao Gao sneered and asked, "Who do you want to correct?"

Heitan said: "Zhongche Mansion Order, Zhao Gao."

In fact, everyone had already guessed this answer, so it was not surprising. However, after Zhao Gao heard it, his heart moved.

He asked: "Do you know who among us is Zhao Gao?"

Through the exchange just now, Zhao Gao felt that the assassin did not know him, so he deliberately asked questions. As long as the assassin answered incorrectly, all false accusations would be destroyed.

However, Heitan bowed his hand to Zhao Gao and said with a smile: "Master Zhao, why do you pretend that you don't know me?"

Zhao Gao shouted angrily: "Huaiguzi must have drawn my portrait and asked you to remember it in advance."

Li Shui said nothing, thinking: "Is there still a need to draw portraits? Is it difficult to distinguish eunuchs from normal people?"

Ying Zheng stopped the irritable Zhao Gao and looked at Li Shui: "Why did this person repent? How did you do it?"

Li Shui said respectfully: "I ordered people to tell him repeatedly about Your Majesty's kindness. After a long time, he recognized it, so he believed it deeply and regretted it endlessly."

Ying Zheng was a little happy when he heard this, and thought to himself: "Can my kindness still influence the assassin?"

In Ying Zheng's view, this kind of thing is a bit absurd. But since it was written by a banished immortal, everything is different.

Ying Zheng looked at Heitan and asked, "Why did you want to assassinate Huaiguzi? Tell me about it?"

Heitan's words are memorized by heart, and after being brainwashed for so long, he has become convinced of these words.

He immediately said: "When I was a child, my family was poor. I was begging on the street and was picked up by a group of Mohists. When I grew up, I became a Qi Mohist."

"Later, the Mohists from Qi and Chu cooperated with Xiang Liang, so we followed the order of the leader of the Mohists and came to Xianyang to look for opportunities to assassinate His Majesty."

"It's just that His Majesty lives deep in the palace and it is difficult for us to get close to him, so the assassination was not successful for a long time. During this period, Zhao Gao has been assisting us. We rely on him for food, clothing, housing and transportation."

"Later we heard that Huaiguzi from Shang Jun's Courtyard was a banished immortal in this world. With this person here, the country of Qin is as solid as gold. So we discussed it. It was too difficult to assassinate His Majesty. I'm afraid it would be easier to assassinate a banished immortal. So we decided

He assassinated the banished immortal several times."

"During this process, Zhao Gao also helped us find out the whereabouts of the banished immortal, and made bows and crossbows for us, which helped us a lot."

Zhao Gao almost fainted from anger: "You are slandering others with blood. Why should I help you assassinate Huaiguzi?"

Heitan said: "Because Mr. Zhao is dissatisfied with the banishment of immortals, there are always open and secret fights in the court. Why not send someone to assassinate him?"

Li Shui and Li Xin nodded vigorously beside them, looking like they suddenly understood.

The courtiers were a little helpless, thinking: "This is obviously what you taught him to say, why are you still pretending to do it now?"

Speaking of this, Heitan suddenly paused, and then said mysteriously: "Once, I sent more than 300 people to raid Shang Jun's courtyard. That time, His Majesty was also here. Lord Zhao Gao said, this time

This is a God-given opportunity, not only to kill Huaiguzi, but also to kill the emperor."

"However, His Majesty's soldiers were too brave. The three hundred highly skilled Mohists were helpless and ultimately failed. From then on, we stopped thinking about assassinating Your Majesty and concentrated on assassinating the banished immortal."

"I didn't expect that the Exalted Immortal had long wanted to catch us all. He set up a trap and only used fifty people to kill us all. I was the only one left in the Qi Mo lineage."

After Heitan finished speaking, he bowed respectfully and said: "I have finished speaking. This life is of no use anymore. Your Majesty wants to kill me, so kill me now. I will never resist."

Zhao Gao sighed: "I admire you, Master Huai can actually find such a dead soldier to frame me."

Heitan said calmly: "The right and wrong are all open to public opinion. When I was arrested that day, many people saw it. Whether I am an assassin or a dead soldier, you will know when you ask."

Ying Zheng looked at Li Shui and asked, "Who was responsible for capturing the assassin that day?"

Li Shui said, "I don't recognize him. He is a soldier brought by Li Xin."

Li Xin understood and immediately sent someone to call for him.

A quarter of an hour later, fifty soldiers arrived.

Ying Zheng made some inquiries, and all fifty people unanimously identified Hei Tan as the ink artist of that day.

Heitan even opened his mouth and said vaguely: "Please see, after I was captured that day, the banished immortal had already knocked out my teeth to prevent me from committing suicide."

Zhao Gao suddenly panicked. Why did this matter become more and more true the more he said it?

He said loudly: "Heitan, you said that I want to rebel, why should I rebel? Yes, there is some unpleasantness between me and Huaiguzi, but there is no need to send someone to assassinate him. Let alone assassinate Your Majesty."

Heitan said quietly: "Then who knows? Maybe after you were tortured, you always held a grudge and couldn't bear it."

As soon as Zhao Gao heard him talking about his torture, he became angry and rushed to hit Hei Tan, but was stopped by someone.

Zhao Gao suddenly cried, knelt on the ground, hugged Ying Zheng's legs, and cried loudly: "Your Majesty, I have been loyal throughout my life, but I was framed by an adulterer. This Huaiguzi got a person of unknown origin, and started

You are lying and falsely accusing your servant."

Ying Zheng asked Li Shui: "Do you still have evidence?"

Li Shui said: "Zhao Gao acted cautiously, and I have no evidence. Besides, I did not frame Master Zhao. All of this was caused by Heitan and has nothing to do with me."

Heitan also said firmly: "Yes, it has nothing to do with banishing immortals."

Wang Wan, who had been silent until now, suddenly suggested: "Your Majesty, I heard that there are still a few mushrooms in the palace..."
