Chapter 369: Still Haven't Defeat Me
Zhang Liang looked at the black-clad killer in front of him and seemed to see himself in a trance. He could empathize with the loneliness and desolation in those eyes.
"Want to know?" The black-clad killer said in a hoarse voice, "Defeat me and I'll tell you."
"Okay, come on." This was exactly what Zhang Liang wanted.
The man in black brandished his sword and rushed towards Zhang Liang, and Zhang Liang also swung the Xuanyuan Sword to fight back. The weapons clashed, clanging, and the two fought hard.
Fei Yu wanted to step forward to help Zhang Liang, but was stopped by Zhang Liang's eyes. Zhang Liang didn't want him to intervene, and the long-lost fierce battle made his blood boil.
Ever since returning from that experience, his moves have been restricted and he can't use them anymore. He can only rely on his true energy and physical strength to fight head-on. Only this kind of battle is the most challenging.
The black-clad killer's strength was equal to Zhang Liang's, and Zhang Liang was unable to use special skills, so the two ended up in a draw.
The assassin in black put away his knife, looked at Zhang Liang, and said slowly: "You are very strong, stronger than I expected. If I am not mistaken, you still have a trump card to play, and you have been hiding your true strength."
Zhang Liang smiled bitterly. He was not hiding, but he was unable to release it.
"You know what? If you want to go further, you need greater opportunities and a wider world." The man in black left this sentence before leaving. "The world outside is much bigger than you think."
The outside world? Zhang Liang watched the black-clad assassin leave without chasing him.
"You haven't told me who hired you..."
The black-clad killer glanced back at Zhang Liang and said, "You haven't defeated me yet."
The black-clad killer encountered on the road did not affect Zhang Liang's meeting with Scarface. Zhang Liang kept this matter in mind and it would not be too late to solve it when he had the chance in the future. The current task was to go to the dilapidated temple in the north of the city to meet Scarface first.
Zhang Liang and Fei Yu arrived at the dilapidated temple and found that Scarface and his group had been waiting there.
……
As for Zhao Gao, he began to suspect Li Si ever since he saw the box in The Beauty of the Country. He knew Li Si's background best, after all, his intelligence network was not in vain.
At this time, Zhao Gao had forgotten how Li Si found the underground palace and how he stole a large amount of treasures overnight without leaving any traces. After all, not everyone has a magical tool like Zhang Liang, which can take away mountains of treasures.
That was the hard work Zhao Gao had plundered for many years, and it was gone overnight. He felt heartbroken and wished he could capture Li Si, eat his flesh and drink his blood to vent his hatred.
But he couldn't do that. After all, Li Si was the prime minister of the dynasty and had great power. Zhao Gao couldn't overthrow him easily. He had to nibble him away slowly and make Li Si spit out what he had swallowed, which belonged to him, Zhao Gao, with interest!
Now the First Emperor is busy building his mausoleum, which is built against Mount Li and is majestic. It seems that he has a premonition about his body. He thinks about cultivating immortality every day and stuffs his stomach with all kinds of messy things. Ying Zheng's luck has run out.
Once the First Emperor Ying Zheng passed away, Prince Fusu would definitely succeed him, but Zhao Gao had been planning for many years. How could he allow Fusu, who had always been hostile to him, to ascend the throne? He had long planned to support the second son Hu Hai to take the throne, and this plan had been laid out many years ago.
The key lies in Li Si, who is a well-known calligrapher. As long as he cooperates, everything will go smoothly. Li Si participated in forging the will, establishing Hu Hai, and ordering Fusu to be executed. Hu Hai followed his lead. The future Qin Dynasty will be Zhao Gao's world.
At that time, the people of the world were named Zhao, not Ying.
By then, in his eyes, Li Si was nothing more than a piece of fish on his chopping board. Killing and chopping him up was Zhao Gao's wish. Li Si, I will let you live a few more days.
The lights reflected in Zhao Gao's eyes, but no matter how bright the lights were, they could not illuminate his heart. Zhao Gao looked in the direction of Li Si and sneered.
It was late at night, and Li Si was still reviewing official documents at his desk. Back then, he chose the powerful Qin State, while Han Fei chose his own motherland, Han. Many years later, Qin State had unified the six kingdoms, and Han, even the original Han people dared not mention the word Han anymore.
Facts have proved that he was right in that choice, but a year later, Li Si made a mistake in that decision...
In the duel with Han Fei, he won, but the joy of victory was like an illusion to him. He had obviously won the game, and the country he supported unified the country, but why did he feel that he had lost more than he had gained?
Li Si thought that his life was complete enough. He started as a minor official in a county, and later mastered the art of being an emperor. He joined the Qin Dynasty and assisted Qin Shi Huangdi.
He helped Qin Shi Huang destroy the six kingdoms and seize the empire. Now he is the prime minister. If he is still dissatisfied with something, he should be content.
In the usual peaceful days, Li Si recalled his life alone. Although he had regrets, he was generally satisfied.
On this day, for some reason, he felt particularly heavy-hearted, and he kept thinking about these past events. Prime Minister Li Si leaned over his desk, shook his head gently, tried to wake himself up, and continued to handle official business.
However, Li Si did not realize that the crisis was approaching silently in the darkness.
The position of prime minister brings endless glory and wealth, but it is also accompanied by endless suspicion and calculation, which makes it difficult to guard against.
