Chapter 798: Is This Also Part of His Royal Highness’s Plan?

Zhao Lang quickly stood up and walked over there, and saw the butcher who had been pushed to the ground by Hu Hai, lying on the ground in a daze.

A small section of the knife tip was exposed from the chest, surrounded by blood slowly spreading out.

It seemed that when he fell to the ground, he knocked over the chopping board for cutting meat, and then stabbed the knife into it without dying.

The Hu Hai people on the side were also dumbfounded.

He is actually not afraid of killing people. From following Brother Lang to now, he has killed dozens of enemy soldiers on various battlefields.

But now they are killing people on the streets of Xianyang. The nature of this is completely different.

He also saw Zhao Lang and others approaching. He was about to come over, but Zhao Lang stopped them with his eyes.

Now that we have reached this point, we can only make mistakes and not expose their plans, otherwise this person's death will be in vain.

To put it cruelly, Hu Hai can better execute the plan by killing people.

Hu Hai could only stand there dumbly, and he understood what the other party meant.

At this time someone shouted loudly,

"The government is here! The government is here!"

Following a burst of scolding, a group of city guards arrived, looked at the butcher's body, and started to arrest Hu Hai one by one.

How could Hu Hai be captured without hesitation? Besides, according to the original script, he wanted to make a fuss as big as possible, so he took out his identity token and shouted:

"I am the blessed king of Great Qin! Who dares to arrest me!"

There was an uproar all around. They still knew the name of King Fu of Great Qin.

In the early days, when reporting victory in Northern Xinjiang, the opponent's name was mentioned. Later, when he returned from victory, he was granted the title of the first king of Qin under the city walls.

Extremely majestic.

"It's King Fu! It's really King Fu!"

"Is he the blessed king who has the support of my Great Qin God of War?!"

"What about King Fu? Can King Fu kill people on the street?"

"How can this be called murder? King Fu kicked this beast in order to protect this poor woman. He accidentally hit it."

"But no matter what, he committed murder! According to the law, he must be beheaded!"

"Are you confused? That's King Fu!"

"But when the prince breaks the law, he is as guilty as the common people!"

While the people on the street were noisy, several city guards around were also dumbfounded.

They all looked at their superiors, and the leading city guard was also confused. He actually couldn't tell whether Hu Hai's token was real or fake.

How does he usually have the opportunity to come into contact with these?

But what to do now?

To arrest or not to arrest?

Just when they were in a daze, a deep and majestic voice sounded,

"Arrest them!"

Everyone couldn't help but look over and saw Wang Ben with a serious look on his face leading a group of Qin troops, who didn't know when they arrived here.

Hearing Wang Ben's words, the sergeants around him hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward and arrested Hu Hai.

Then Wang Ben turned around and took the person away, but before leaving, he glanced in the direction of Zhao Lang.

Soon, others dispersed the gathered people. Zhao Mier, who was already dumbfounded, finally came back to her senses and said with a bit of anxiety,

"Prince... Hu Hai has been captured, what should we do?"

Zhao Lang exhaled slowly and said calmly,

"Don't be anxious. Nothing will happen to Hu Hai in the hands of Marquis Tongwu. I will take care of other matters."

"Sister Huang, please take Miss Mi'er back."

Now that a human life has been lost, it would be bad to treat it as a joke.

Ying Yinman nodded, without saying anything else, and left directly with Zhao Mier.

She believed that Zhao Lang would handle these matters well.

After the others left, Zhao Lang looked at the butcher's wife who was slumped on the ground and sighed slightly.

In fact, this woman is still extremely pitiful. When she had a husband, judging from her previous state, he always beat and scolded her.

She could only endure it. Gu Qi

There is no protection law in Da Qin. This is all a family matter. The important thing is that the people will not complain and the officials will not investigate.

And now, the butcher is dead, which is no relief for the woman.

How can a person survive when she is a woman, does not know if she has children, and does not have a field?

Thinking of this, Zhao Lang said to the slave beside him,

"Go and prepare some money so that she can have enough food and clothing for the rest of her life."

"But don't give it now."

"Let people look at this woman again to see who will come over. No matter what, we must ensure her safety."

The situation of women nowadays is actually very delicate. As long as someone is thoughtful, he can use this woman for many purposes.

"Yes, Master."

The slave quickly accepted the order.

Zhao Lang nodded and left without any further hesitation.

This matter will spread quickly, and there may not be peace in the court tomorrow.

Sure enough, it happened in the morning, and by the afternoon, almost all the people in Xianyang City knew about it, and the news was still spreading around!

Hu Hai, the blessed king of Great Qin, killed people in the street!

This kind of news is too exciting!

The mansion of Zuo Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty.

Li Si was sorting documents in his study. His Highness the Crown Prince gave him two legislative tasks at once. Even with the help of other Legalist disciples, he was still extremely busy.

"Well, His Royal Highness, the leader of the Legal family, is quite free."

Li Si couldn't help but silently cursed.

Of course, he also knew that Zhao Lang's acceptance of the position of head of hundreds of families, except for the farm family, had mostly symbolic meanings.

At this moment, the door was pushed open suddenly. Li Si looked up and frowned slightly.

"You'er, what are you doing in such a hurry? Didn't I let you see the progress of the textile machine? Why is this magnanimity not even as good as your sister's?"

Ling'er has been studying at Heming Academy recently, and his knowledge and demeanor have improved a lot.

Li You gasped and said at this time,

"Father, I heard the news that Prince Fu Hu Hai killed someone in the street and has been locked up!"

Hearing this, Li Steng stood up with a cry.

"What? Tell me in detail!"

Soon, Li You told the news one by one, and then asked,

"Father, what should we do?"

After listening to this, Li Si frowned even more tightly.

He was not surprised when Hu Hai caused trouble.

He knew Qin Shihuang's plan, and he had said at the beginning that Hu Hai would be used to attack.

But I didn’t expect it to be so big!

If we really follow the rule that 'princes who break the law are guilty of the same crime as the common people', killing people to pay for their lives is no joke.

Is His Royal Highness actually so cruel?

Soon, Li Si said,

"Go and send someone to fetch the butcher's wife! I can be of use."

Now, this wife is the key!

Li You left quickly and didn't come back until the evening, but he brought some bad news.

"Father, when the child passed by, the butcher's wife was gone. Some people said that she was taken away by a noble family."

"Are we going to get it back?"

Hearing this, Li Si was startled and said,

"Taken away by the nobles?"

After pondering for a while, Li Si had a strange look on his face and said to himself,

"Is this also part of His Royal Highness's plan?"
