Chapter 175 The tacit understanding of the spring festival day assassination
Luna, who had already gained the trust of Lao Ai's gang during the day, was now looking at an older woman with a displeased expression on her face.
"The aftermath of mind reading."
Mind-reading, spying on memories; mind-controlling spells, creating illusions, manipulating people's hearts; soul-changing, soul-moving...
One by one, the mental spells flashed before Moon Goddess' eyes, and she sighed: "I haven't used them in seven years. I hope they won't feel unfamiliar."
Luna also used her mind-reading skills, and her spiritual power flowed, tentatively entering the woman's mind, following the traces of Da Siming's mind-reading skills, and smoothing out the scars one by one.
"Luo'er..."
Apparently, Luna's mental treatment had an effect, and the previously unconscious woman slowly regained consciousness.
Gan Mu sat up and looked around cautiously, "Who are you?"
Faced with her warning, the Moon God tried his best to look kind, "Your son, Gan Luo, is the destined protector of the Yin-Yang family, Xinghun. I am the protector of the Yin-Yang family, the Moon God, and I am here to take you out of the Qin court.
The whirlpool, from now on live in seclusion within the protection of my Yin Yang family."
Gan's mother was a bit fierce, "What nonsense are you talking about? Gan Luo wants to make a name for himself and repay Lu Xiang's kindness to my Gan family. How can he hide from the world and live in seclusion? Please let me go quickly, I want to see him."
"I know Gan Luo was well educated by you, but he was on the wrong team from the beginning. If I let you go back, it will only make things worse."
"What is your plan?"
Moon God still explained in a good voice: "Prime Minister Lu and the King of Qin are almost incompatible with each other. The King of Qin is about to take over the throne, and if your son continues to stay in this storm, it will only destroy the Gan family together.
"
"Prime Minister Lu worked hard for Qin and achieved great results. The current King of Qin is also wise and extraordinary. How could he be as dark as you said? Please let me go quickly -" Gan Mu was stuck in her words and fell down.
Luna retracted the snap of her fingers and vented her displeasure softly, "If it had been before, you would have died long ago."
Threats can be eliminated directly, and innocent people should not be implicated if possible~
She gave some instructions to her men and left here.
On the other hand, Gan Luo has returned to his mansion and is serving his mother to rest.
Gan's mother held Gan Luo's hand and explained: "Mr. Lu treats you as a parent and is kind to the entire Gan family. Today he reunited my mother and son. Mother, you don't have to worry here, your family will take care of you."
.You will participate in the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow, make suggestions for Prime Minister Lu, repay Prime Minister Lu, and serve the country. Don't let being a mother disturb your mind."
This is my mother who understands justice.
How could those villains from the Yin Yang family be able to pretend!
Gan Luo nodded in agreement one after another and wiped away his tears, "Mom, then you should rest early."
Gan's mother said "hmm" and closed her eyes. When she heard Gan Luo walking out, the corner of her mouth raised, "My child, you are still too naive."
But she soon lost her complacency. The three killers of Luo Wang were so easy to defeat with their combined swords?
Da Siming sat up carefully and began to perform exercises to heal his injuries.
Lu Yan seemed to have a good night, but he put together the Yin Yang family's plan in his mind.
The Moon God wanted to use Gan Luo to assassinate Ying Zheng on the Spring Festival Day and put the blame on Lu Buwei. If Lao Ai planned it well, she could reap too many benefits.
But then Gan Luo would be dead. How to become a star soul? How could she let Gan Luo live?
Lu Yan had not thought about this yet. However, this matter was very beneficial to him and Ying Zheng.
"I'm going to the palace tomorrow to make plans with Ying Zheng. This matter is very promising. It's just——"
Suddenly looking back, he realized: The Moon God was sending assists to me and Ying Zheng.
Lao Ai, Lu Buwei, Xiong Qi, none of you can escape. Moon God, well done!
…
Four days later, Spring Festival
On the banks of the Weishui River, the Qin flag flutters in the wind.
The high platforms used for sacrificial rituals are built layer by layer, and everything is ready.
All civil and military officials were present, and the royal guards, dragon and tiger cavalry, protected the King of Qin's chariot. Amidst the greetings, Ying Zheng, dressed in imperial robes, walked slowly out of the car to drive.
Lu Buwei, Xiong Qi, Lao Ai, and all the clan members were all absent. Lu Yan, the national preceptor, had a special position. Like Feng Chang, who read out the sacrificial ceremony, he was all alone.
Ying Zheng stepped onto the high platform alone, and all the officials stood in rows. A waiter brought each of them a bowl of water from the Wei River.
As the sacrificial music played, Feng Chang read the ceremony loudly, and his old and solemn voice floated over the Wei River.
"Your Majesty, Haotian, set me up to protect the people. When I came to bring food to you, I was ordered to lead the education. Cherish the time and cherish the shade, and sow hundreds of grains. I also obeyed your plowing, and the ten thousand-dimensional couple. The square bracts are square, and the leaves are mud. Zai.
Burning and burning will bring success to the next generation."
Lao Fengchang gathered the silk book with his hands and burned it in a bronze cauldron. The ashes were blown up by the strong wind and flew thousands of miles into the sky. The sky will receive the prayers of mortals.
The drums sounded, and Ying Zheng held the jade in his hands, facing the Wei River that witnessed the years of the Qin Dynasty, and said solemnly: "The emperor, the emperor, the queen of the country, bless me, the Qin Dynasty."
Yujue fell from the high platform and gradually disappeared into the Wei River.
Lao Fengchang immediately announced: "Drink~"
Lu Yan used the inner power of ice to condense the water into a ball and secretly hid it in his hand.
Everyone present drank the river water and soon became unsteady on their feet.
As mentioned before, the official position of Shangqing can be big or small. Today, I don't know who ranked Gan Luo higher. Just when everyone was faltering, Gan Luo drew his arrow from his sleeve and aimed it at the heart of Ying Zheng on the high platform.
"Assassin! Escort!"
Nei Shisi shouted loudly and blocked Gan Luo with his body. The powerful crossbow bolt penetrated his body and continued to shoot towards Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng on the high platform ignored the farce below. A white light flashed and the crossbow arrow broke into two pieces in the air.
Gai Nie was guarding the side of the high platform with a sword, and his sword eyes could see the reactions of all the officials.
When this happened, Lu Buwei felt dizzy and had a cramping pain.
The people of the Yin and Yang family have been... This time, the entire Ganluo clan cannot be saved. Although he will not die, his vitality will be severely damaged.
Ying Zheng stood tall and performed the sacrificial ceremony until the end, then turned around and faced the panicked officials.
"The incompetence of my guardian has frightened the king."
Nei Shisi covered the penetrating wound and tried his best to report it. His voice was torn and painful, which made people feel heartbroken.
Nei Shi, the military and political leader of Xianyang City, his position could indeed block Gan Luo in time.
Lu Yan saw this man's acting skills in his eyes and sneered in his heart: You were clearly prepared before Gan Luo took action, otherwise with your poisoned skills, you wouldn't have been able to hit the arrow. You really worked hard for acting.
"The internal history guard has done a good job, and I have a heavy reward. Let's recover from our injuries first."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ying Zheng first ordered people to carry Nei Shisi down for treatment, and then he began to investigate the matter.
"Lao Ai, you are responsible for organizing the Spring Festival. What's your explanation?"
Lao Ai immediately knelt down and said, "I ask the king to punish you."
"On the Spring Festival, the water of the Weihe River was poisoned by thieves. Assassins could even enter with bows and crossbows. As the principal, you failed to supervise the supervision well and are guilty of dereliction of duty. You will be punished with half a year's salary and the land of a county in Shanyang will be cut off. You will also be guarded today.
, all the internal prison guards responsible for body searches were jailed.”
"I accept the crime."
Ying Zheng looked at the captured Gan Luo again, "This crossbow is more powerful than Qin's current military crossbow. Where did it come from?"
Lu Yan stood up and answered: "Your Majesty, Gongshu Qiu's newly designed machine-operated crossbow is being produced by the Arsenal Office. This crossbow should be simplified and modified from it."
"I will order the arsenal to be imprisoned, and all officers in the lieutenant's office will be demoted to one rank."
After Ying Zheng finished talking about the disposition of the Lieutenant's Mansion, he walked slowly to Lu Buwei and looked at the Prime Minister who was kneeling on the ground. His voice was a little hoarse: "Father Zhong, Gan Luo assassinated him. As his adoptive father, you have the right to recommend him."
Well, is there anything you want to say to me?"
Lu Buwei maintained his posture of grabbing the ground with his head, "I have no eyesight, I am feeding a tiger, and I have nothing to say."
"I will punish Father Zhong with a salary of half a year, and three months of shutting up to think about his mistakes. He will not be allowed to leave the government, and all political matters will be handed over to the censor. Father Zhong, is it okay for me to do this?"
"Old minister, thank you so much, Your Majesty."
Three months!
All the officials were horrified.
There are only two months until Ying Zheng's coronation ceremony. Are you not even qualified to attend the ceremony?!
Chapter completed!
