The prime minister of the Great Qin, Li Si, was in collusion with the Guowei Zhao Gao. Although he did not participate in the imprisonment of Yingzheng, he allowed Zhao Gao and Hu Hai to disrupt the Great Qin.

Not only that, but he also probably knew that something might have happened to Ying Zheng, but he was unmoved.

This crime belongs to the Yi tribe, and he will also be sentenced to be cut in half.

It was Li Jue who thought that there was still some kindness between him and Li You, so he changed the beheading to beheading, and continued the barbarian tribe.

Although beheading was changed to beheading, it seemed that they were still going to die, but in this era, beheading and car splitting are the most serious tortures, but beheading is still a very gracious death penalty.

because.

After being cut in half, he may not die immediately. The prisoner will suffer for a period of time. This torture is unbearable for ordinary people.

And many people think that if you go to hell after being cut in half, you will never be reincarnated.

If you beheaded, you can still go to hell, and you will still be a good man in your next life.

And, die fast.

As for the car cracking, needless to say, each of the five carriages was tied with a rope, which was wrapped around the neck, hands and feet of the person, and then began to pull in five directions.

This process is more painful than being cut in half. People don't die so quickly and are finally pulled into five pieces.

Li Si's sentence was changed to beheading. To Li Si, this was indeed something to be thankful and grateful for.

Because he knew that for his crimes, he would be sentenced by himself, at least the car would be broken, and Ying Zheng sentenced him to be cut in half because of his previous affection.

Later, the sentence was changed to beheading, and he was naturally grateful.

It's day.

In Xianyang City, on the Supervisory Platform.

Crown Prince Fusu, Prime Minister Meng Yi, and the new royal censor Wang Ben sat upright on the supervisory stage.

Originally, Wang Ben was General Tongwuhou, who dealt with Chen Sheng and Wu Guang outside, but Yingzheng recalled him out of the emperor's consideration and promoted him to be a royal doctor.

This is one of the three civil servants, responsible for supervising all officials, and Meng Yi used to hold this position.

Now that Meng Yi is the prime minister, in order to restrict the Meng family, it is natural to ask someone who is also on the stage to act as the supervisor of the royal doctor.

After all, Meng Yi is the prime minister in the court, Meng Tian is the military god outside, and the military and government are already headed by the Meng family.

Someone has to hold them down.

Not only was Wang Ben promoted among the civil servants, but Zhao Teng, the highest official in Xianyang who had been imprisoned, was also employed as a Ting Wei, that is, the boss of the former prison.

The position of internal history was handed over to a newly promoted civil servant. Under Zhao Gao's chaos, he was still upright and loyal to the Great Qin. Naturally, Yingzheng was relieved to entrust the security of the capital to him.

As for the troops outside, Ying Zheng also added officials to Zhang Han, Zhao Tuo who was far away in Baiyue, Li Xin, the general, and Wang Li, Marquis of Wucheng, the Wang family.

It's all for balance, and it's all the art of the emperor.

At this time, both Meng Yi and Wang Ben were here, sitting on both sides of Prince Fusu, so it was also a kind of balancing technique.

As for Tingwei Zhao Teng, he did not appear because he was still interrogating and torturing Zhao Gao at this time.

On the execution platform, Li Jue took off his black dragon robe, held a golden knife, and acted as the executioner again.

Originally, the emperor and ministers of the Great Qin Dynasty opposed it, and let Li Jue, the side-by-side king, be executed in person, because it was not good-looking.

However, Li Jue insisted on this.

In the end, everyone could only agree, and at the same time they praised Li Jue in every possible way, saying that he was a man of integrity, thought of Da Qin, and devoted himself to death.

after all.

Li Si's status was extraordinary, and the executioner who killed him had to be tough enough, otherwise something would happen and Daqin would lose face.

On the other hand, there are few hard-fated people left among the executioners in the prison. Li Jue's executioners in the prison in Dongcheng District were all tortured to death and injured because of being implicated.

At present, no one can hold a knife, let alone kill Li Si.

That is to say, Li Jue had stepped forward and condescended to behead Li Si. Otherwise, Da Qin would not be able to come up with an executioner who could behead Li Si, which would make people laugh at him instead.

There were quite a few onlookers, and Prince Fusu personally read Li Si's crimes, which aroused public outrage.

Many people pointed at Li Si, and some spit. Fortunately, there were soldiers around, otherwise Li Si would be torn to pieces by these people.

Li Si smiled bitterly, his eyes filled with horror.

Li Sidao: "Unexpectedly, the old man worked hard for Daqin, but at this moment, he ended up with his head on the ground."

Li Jue said indifferently: "You can have fun secretly, if it weren't for me, you would probably be cut in half."

After a moment of silence, Li Si really thanked him.

Then he said: "Whether you can save my son, he has some friendship with you."

Li Jue said with a chuckle, "I said before, the friendship between him and me is insignificant in the face of big right and wrong."

With a long sigh, Li Si said again: "To be honest, this old man really didn't expect Zhao Gao to be so mad. He lied to this old man that the emperor had already passed away. He asked me to hide this matter, and let me be the prime minister, and he wanted my son to be the emperor." Dr. Steve..."

Li Jue said: "Li Xiang, after living for so long, can't you tell whether Zhao Gao is a man or a ghost?"

He mocked: "And even if the emperor really dies, you can follow Zhao Gao to do evil, right and wrong?"

Li Si also wanted to defend himself with a few words, saying: "I don't, the old man acts frankly, but I just think that Daqin will be better if the old man continues to be the prime minister."

Li Jue said hehe: "Come on, you already have countless eyes, you can't distinguish between black and white, if you continue to be the prime minister, you will only harm Daqin."

"Besides, if I'm not wrong, you were the one who wrote the imperial decree for Fusu to commit suicide. Hehe, you are so courageous that you have not been tried for this crime, otherwise your fate will not be much better than Zhao Gao's. Can you sit here comfortably and wait for the slaughter?"

hiss.

Li Si was startled, he was really scared.

because.

He knew that what Li Jue said was the truth, and Zhao Gao paid attention to the false transmission of the imperial edict, but it was his handwriting to write the false imperial edict.

Strictly speaking, there is no master-slave distinction between him and Zhao Gao, they are all chaotic parties.

Being able to be beheaded is really an extrajudicial favor.

Above, the crown prince Fusu had read out the crime, and finally threw down the execution order and said beheaded.

Li Jue raised the golden knife, raised the knife with his hand and dropped it, and the head fell to the ground immediately.

Before Li Si died, he was still struggling. He was afraid at that moment.

after all.

There is no one who is not afraid of death, especially Li Si, who is already mature. Although he was calm before, he is still afraid when facing death.

He was terrified, he was afraid, and when the head fell to the ground at the last moment, he was not completely dead.

Sobbing unwillingly, "I, I, I have something to say, I will confess honestly, in exchange for leniency..."

However.

His head has fallen, and he will never have any chance to explain.

After beheading Li Si, Li Jue also obtained his life.

The yin and yang scroll of life and death was unrolled, and Li Si's life on it was like a revolving lantern, with scenes emerging one after another.

Li Si was a native of Shangcai in the state of Chu. He had been familiar with the art of war since he was a child. He entered Jixia Academy and studied with Xunzi. His fellow apprentice was Han Feizi.

And he has been gifted since he was a child, and his learning ability and memory ability are super strong, which belongs to the sequence of genius. At the same time, he is also a calligrapher and writer, which is why before Li Jue appeared, he was always one of the objects sought after by scholars from all walks of life in Xianyang, Great Qin Dynasty.

When he was young, Li Si, who was unwilling to be lonely, went to Daqin to seek a way out after completing his studies. He joined Lu Buwei's family as a diner, advised Lu Buwei, and got a lot of attention.

Later, he followed Lu Buwei to the palace for a banquet. In order to make himself stand out, he passed Lu Buwei and uttered nonsense at the banquet, which aroused dissatisfaction from Lu Buwei and the officials. However, he recited the book of remonstrance and expelling guests that he had prepared long ago, which attracted Ying Zheng's attention and took him by his side to act as a counselor.

After that, Li Si's spring came. But later he found out that his senior brother Han Feizi was famous all over the world, and even became a legalist giant, and Ying Zheng wanted Han Feizi to be the Great Qin Tingwei. This made Li Si very jealous, so he found an excuse to slander him and asked Ying Zheng to kill him.

It was later proved that Li Si had made a false accusation, but the matter had come to this point, and it was impossible for Ying Zheng to admit his mistake, so he made the mistake and let Li Si take over. The general public's opinion of Li Si has always been bad. In fact, Li Si is jealous and has a great desire for power, but he is indeed capable.

After Yingzheng unified the six countries, it was his idea that Che Tonggui Shu Tongwen unify weights and measures. It can be said that Daqin became more and more powerful, and Li Si contributed the most to it.

But success also won the government, and failure also won the government. Li Si was greedy for power, worried that Fusu would reuse Confucianism after he came to power, so he tried to kill Fusu. With today's results.

And during the period when Zhao Gao and Hu Hai were wreaking havoc on Daqin, Li Si also felt that most of the power had been divided up by Zhao Gao, which made him flustered.

He also secretly contacted the Eighteenth Road Anti-King, using this as a backing, and the first person he contacted was Fan Zeng, intending to use the strength of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, as an internal response at that time. If Zhao Gao was in power, he would help Xiang Yu seize Daqin. He will continue to be prime minister.

Fan Zeng naturally agreed, and was very happy to have correspondence with him, and Xiang Yu was able to capture many territories so quickly because of Li Si's tip-off.

Not only that, Li Si also secretly contacted Liu Bang, strictly speaking, Xiao He. Li Si was afraid of Xiao He's ability, and even cut off contact in the middle, because he was afraid that Liu Bang would take power, and he couldn't suppress Xiao He, so he couldn't continue to be prime minister.

Two days before the court coup, Li Si had the last correspondence with Xiao He. This was because he felt that Zhao Gao had completely controlled Xianyang. territory.

Then, Hu Hai and Zhao Gao were desperate, so they asked him for help and let him command the overall situation, so he could take this opportunity to regain power.

It can be said that Li Si's schemes and calculations are already perfect, and there are no calculations left, but no one is as good as God.

Who knew, the letter was delivered, and his head fell to the ground.
