Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield

Chapter 626: Chapter 255: Ying Zheng: Do You Prefer the Enfeoffment System or the Commandery-County System? Zhao Feng: Great King, Why Not Have Another Child?

”This... your subject naturally believes in the Great King.”

”After all, the Great King has so many concubines in his harem, perhaps one day a few more might be born. The Great King is still young now, and if he teaches them hand by hand, there might truly be an opportunity.” Zhao Feng thought for a while, and indeed came up with a method.

Upon hearing this.

Even Ying Zheng couldn’t help but laugh in anger: ”You really deserve a beating, young man.”

”Great King.”

”This is the best method.” Zhao Feng felt somewhat innocent.

He had come up with such a good method, perhaps it was indeed the best one.

Besides this.

Zhao Feng couldn’t think of any other method.

Unless Ying Zheng truly continued the feudal system.

But it seemed impossible.

”You...”

Ying Zheng’s initially serious demeanor was instantly turned into laughter by Zhao Feng.

At this moment!

”Reporting to the Great King.”

”Court Minister Li Si.”

”Imperial Censor Feng Jie.”

”Request an audience outside the hall.”

Zhao Gao’s voice echoed within the grand hall.

”So soon?”

Ying Zheng was quite surprised.

How long has it been since court was dismissed?

Barely over an hour, and they’ve come to report the case conclusion so swiftly.

”The evidence your subject found is enough to convict Wang Wan and the others. Wang Wan had no way to argue and naturally confessed, perhaps his attitude could also lead the Great King to deal lightly with him.” Zhao Feng chuckled lightly, directly exposing Wang Wan’s intentions.

Ying Zheng said nothing, instead looking toward the hall’s entrance, commanding: ”Summon!”

Outside the hall.

Zhao Gao immediately turned his head and said: ”Your Excellencies, please enter the hall for an audience.”

Having said that.

Zhao Gao pushed open the tightly shut hall door.

Li Si and Feng Jie tidied up their attire and stepped boldly into Zhangtai Palace.

Seeing Ying Zheng inside the palace, dining and drinking with Zhao Feng, both of their expressions simultaneously showed surprise.

It seemed they hadn’t expected Ying Zheng to directly host Zhao Feng at Zhangtai Palace.

To them, this was an unparalleled honor.

Their eyes also flashed with envy.

”Greetings, Great King.”

Both bowed deeply to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng raised his hand, asking in a deep voice: ”Already concluded the case so quickly?”

”Reporting to the Great King.”

”Wang Wan confessed to the crimes without denial, directly admitted guilt.”

”This is Wang Wan’s confession manuscript.” Li Si quickly spoke, holding out a silk manuscript with Wang Wan’s fingerprint.

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, looking at Feng Jie.

”What the Court Minister said is true.”

”Only before Wang Wan confessed, he asked your subject to relay a message to the Great King.”

”Requesting the Great King, considering his years of service, to spare his bloodline.” Feng Jie replied respectfully.

But his gaze secretly observed Ying Zheng to see if there would be any turn of events.

Ying Zheng nodded calmly: ”Since the case is concluded, find a time to deal with it according to the law.”

”Reporting to the Great King.”

”According to the Daqin Law, those who seize land, their clan is exterminated.”

”Those who collude with foreign states for profit, their clan is exterminated.”

”Other charges of Wang Wan are grounds for execution.” Li Si immediately began.

”The law is set, how can it be changed?”

”Can personal feelings surpass the law?” Ying Zheng frowned.

Upon hearing this.

Li Si rejoiced inwardly, promptly saying: ”Your subject understands.”

”Your subject will post announcements according to Tingwei’s orders.”

”To deal with Wang Wan’s whole clan within ten days.”

”However, this time taking down Wang Wan’s clan does not mean taking down the entire clan.”

”Wang Wan has five sons and three daughters.”

”Of which only the eldest son Wang Wen is in Xianyang, the other four sons are not here.”

”Two of Wang Wan’s three daughters are already married, one married into the Wei Family, the other into a clan.”

Clearly.

These still required Ying Zheng’s judgment.

”Those already married, having no connection with the Wang Family, can be spared.”

”As for the rest, all executed.” Ying Zheng’s voice was cold.

”Your subject obeys the order.” Li Si immediately replied.

”Great King.”

”Your subject believes.”

”The Prime Minister’s crimes are indeed grave.”
