Through Time Chapter 358

At this point, the water’s surface is above the only giant boat, here originally the one that Lee Stern had.

The other two have sunk to the bottom of the water.

Zhao Gao and Li Si, both with extremely ugly faces, were standing by the side of the boat, looking at the surface of the water covered with corpses.

At this moment all the canoes were filled with Qin troops, who were looking for the First Emperor of Qin!

Soon, a small boat slowly approached the huge boat, and Zhao Gao at this time took a few anxious steps forward and asked

“Have you found His Majesty?”

The man in the canoe shook his head.

Zhao Gao’s eyes instantly turned red and he spoke with extreme irritability, saying

“If you haven’t found His Majesty, what are you doing back here!”

“Search! Keep looking!”

“His Majesty must be found!”

The canoe retreated again at once.

When the canoe had left, Zhao Gao sat down directly on the ground, without the slightest hint of the aura of an order of the Central Chariot.

Of course, no one blamed him at this point.

Li Si’s eyes flickered at this point; he was a man of the law and had always been cold.

After the initial panic, he was already planning in his mind what would happen afterwards!

With a slow exhale, Li Si walked over to Zhao Gao’s side and

“If we can’t find Your Majesty…”

Hearing these words, Zhao Gao was startled and said in a loud voice that

“Prime Minister! What are you talking about!”

“His Majesty must be safe and sound!”

Li Si said coldly, the

“Naturally I want His Majesty to be safe and sound, but if His Majesty cannot be found.”

“Have you ever thought about whether the various ministers in the court will spare us!”

Hearing these words, Zhao Gao’s face turned pale.

In fact, he already had a guess in his mind.

The giant boat where His Majesty was had already sunk, and now that His Majesty could not be found, there was basically no reason for him to survive.

It was just that he couldn’t believe it.

For without His Majesty, he would be nothing but a masterless dog!

Over the years, he had offended many ministers in the court.

If there is no one to protect him in the future, he will not survive long!

Far from it, there was a feud between the two of them, even Meng Yi!

Zhao Gao sucked in a breath of cold air, he didn’t want to die yet!

Li Si continued coldly to

“Your Majesty cannot die yet! At least not until we have a new emperor!”

When Zhao Gao heard this, he froze, of course he wanted His Majesty not to die, but was this something he could f*cking decide now?

“Prime Minister! What are you talking about!?”

Zhao Gao said with his mind in turmoil.

Li Si had by this time cleared his mind and returned, extremely dryly

“Only the merit of championing the new emperor will keep us alive!”

Now the court had the right minister Feng Zhaoge, the military had Wang Jian and Wang Ben.

On the borderlands, there was also Meng Tian and Zhao Tuo.

They accompanied His Majesty on his southern tour, and when His Majesty was assassinated, as Li Si said, the ministers in the court would not spare them!

“What do you want to do?”

Zhao Gao spoke in a low voice at this time.

Li Si took a deep breath and said that

“No matter what, we must not let it be known that we have not found His Majesty!”

Zhao Gao’s heart stirred and he said that

“The Prime Minister is saying…”

Li Si nodded his head and

“We falsely claimed to have found His Majesty, but he was too cold to see anyone!”

“We’ll be the ones to deliver all the orders! That’s what happens on weekdays anyway!”

“Then we return to Xianyang in a hurry, and when we have deliberated about the new emperor, we will announce to the world about His Majesty’s assassination! ”

Zhao Gao swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, with a few shivers

“This is a great crime of deceiving the king!”

A cold glint flashed in Li Si’s eyes and he said.

“Where else would you get a king now!”

Hearing these words, Zhao Gao was violently stunned, yes, where else would a king come from now?

He and Li Si were now the two most powerful people in this empire!

Having figured this out, Zhao Gao only felt that his whole world, seemed to be a little different!

He couldn’t help but tremble a little bit all over!

Li Si asked at this time that

“Also, the box His Majesty gave you the other day!”

Zhao Gao’s heart was slightly startled as he touched his chest; the box was still there.

Zhao Gao gave Li Si a wink and the two of them headed straight inside.

When they reached a room, they closed the door.

Only then did he take the wooden box out and open it, taking out the silk with the words written inside.

The two men read it in a hurry.

Sure enough, as they had expected, it was a notice to heaven, a sacrificial note from the Prince of Great Qin!

The two men quickly found the most crucial line!

“Your Majesty’s son, Ying Lang, is a master of arts and martial arts, a natural talent! He may become the Crown Prince of Qin!”

“Called: Crown Prince Ying Long!”

At the sight of these two lines, both men’s eyes widened for a moment!

Their prediction was correct, His Majesty had chosen Zhao Lang as the Crown Prince!

“As long as we return to Xianyang, we will embrace Duke Long as Emperor of Qin!”

“With the merit of embracing him! Then we can be saved!”

Li Si spoke slowly at this time.

He still did not have much resistance to Zhao Lang becoming the Emperor of Qin.

His opponent’s understanding of legalism was far beyond that of ordinary people.

Moreover, he himself had given his daughter away, a wave that he had sort of prepared for a long time ago.

But at this time Zhao Gao’s hesitated, not knowing what had occurred to him, and gritted his teeth and said

“Prime Minister, do you still remember what Gongzi Lang said to His Majesty when we first met him?”

Li Si froze for a moment; of course he remembered, he had even fallen down because of it, and

“Gongzi Lang said that you and I were nothing more than vicious dogs, and that he did not appreciate us.”

Zhao Gao nodded and went on to say that

“Prime Minister, how do you think Gong Zi Lang is acting?”

Li Si thought for a moment and said that

“Killing and decisive, cool like his father!”

Zhao Gao said at this point with a touch of desperation, and ruthlessness that

“Chancellor! Do you think that if Duke Long succeeds to the throne, he will spare you and me who are protecting His Majesty against him?”

Hearing these words, Li Si was stunned for a moment before he said, with some difficulty.

“What do you mean?”

Zhao Gao gritted his teeth, tried to say something, looked at the sacrificial text left by Qin Shi Huang, and said that

“There is no need for this matter to be so urgent.”

“We’ll think about it on the way, think about it! ”

“At the very least, probe the gentry wave again. ”

Lis nodded with a complex expression.

On the other side, the killing on the shore were nearing the end, the opponent’s land-based attack, though fierce in the early stages.

But when the Qin army reacted, it was inevitably at a disadvantage.

If the man at the head of the group had not been so fierce and so brave, they would have been annihilated.

The other side even retreated of their own accord after hearing the cry ‘The tyrant is dead’.

The battle was, of course, a great victory for the Qin army in terms of battle damage.

But there was not a single smile on anyone’s face at this point.

On the pier, Meng Yi looked at the only giant boat on the water with an expressionless face, not knowing what he was thinking.

None of the canoes he had sent out to ask questions had returned.

He also stopped waiting and walked towards an inconspicuous military tent in his middle army.

Upon entering the tent, a middle-aged man dressed in black regular clothes was sitting blandly.

After saluting, Meng Yi whispered to

“Your Majesty, there is no news from Zhao Gao and Li Si yet. ”

The middle-aged man, who was naturally Qin Shi Huang, spoke blandly to

“No matter, wait a little longer.”

“Also, don’t call me Your Majesty anymore, I’m just Long’s father now, a salt merchant. ”

“Just call me Old Zhao.”

Meng Yi winked and returned.

“Yes, Your Majesty.”
