Therefore, the emperor's favor is at its peak.
Ying Zheng said loudly, "Xu Fu's crimes are unforgivable, but to kill him with a flurry of punches would be too lenient."
This swindler had completely fooled him and tricked him into consuming many poisonous elixirs. Whenever Ying Zheng thought about it, he would grit his teeth and wish he could tear Xu Fu to pieces.
In fact, if it weren't for the immortal's reminder, Ying Zheng would still trust him completely and plan to send three thousand boys and girls with him to sea to find the immortal islands and immortals.
Looking back now, it's really laughable!
If Xu Fu had really escaped, Ying Zheng would have truly lost all face.
Moreover, according to the immortal, in later generations, this guy not only went to sea to become a king and dominate the world, but also created a wolfish and ambitious country that posed a great threat to the Chinese nation in the future.
From both a public and private perspective, and from both a moral and rational standpoint.
Xu Fu had to be killed.
Killing him would not be enough to quell this deep hatred.
Killing them is not enough to appease public anger.
Just then, Prime Minister Li Si stepped forward, bowed deeply with both hands, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, Xu Fu is a heinous criminal. Killing him would be too lenient."
"Your humble servant suggests that he be torn apart by five horses, and that his entire family be executed, along with his three clans, as a warning to others."
"The rest of the sorcerers should also be buried alive."

The Jique Palace, the power center of the Qin Empire.
At this moment, Li Si's face was terribly gloomy, and he wished he could tear Xu Fu to pieces!
If the occasion weren't so inappropriate, he would have suggested boiling Xu Fu in oil, throwing him directly into a pot of boiling oil and frying him to ashes on the spot.
Upon hearing Li Si's speech, Ying Zheng frowned slightly, as if he were pondering something.
Finally, as if he had thought of something, Ying Zheng's brows relaxed temporarily, and he temporarily removed Li Si from the blacklist.
At the same time, he thought to himself, "This kid has really broadened his horizons!"
He nodded and said, "Okay."
Xu Fu was so frightened that tears streamed down his face, and he collapsed to the ground, pleading, "Your Majesty! Please have mercy!"
The fear of impending death terrified him so much that he trembled and even soiled himself.
Moreover, he wasn't the only one to be torn apart by five horses.
The entire family, from the eighty-year-old grandmother to the infant in swaddling clothes, would not survive; they would all be executed on the spot.
Not only his entire family, but also nearly a thousand people from his father's, mother's, and son's families were implicated.
Along with the more than two hundred sorcerers in Xianyang, not one of them was spared.
The First Emperor was furious!
Corpses floated for miles!
With a single word, countless heads rolled.
Ying Zheng waved his hand and said, "Take him away!"
"promise!"
Ignoring Xu Fu's shouts, the two Black Ice Guards, who only obeyed the First Emperor's orders, dragged him away.
His tragic end was almost inevitable.
This progenitor of Japan, who was destined to revitalize the country in the future, passed away before even setting sail.
History has changed!
The number one traitor on the blacklist, execute him!
Next, there was the second traitor.
Ying Zheng pondered for a moment, then shouted, "Guards!"
"promise!"
"Seize Zhao Gao, the Chief of the Imperial Carriage Office!"
"promise!"
The armored guards outside the palace responded with a roar and rushed towards Zhao Gao. Although Zhao Gao was a eunuch and could ride a horse, he was just an ordinary person. How could he possibly be a match for two fierce warriors?
Besides, he wouldn't dare to resist.
With a single capture, Zhao Gao was taken down on the spot by two armored soldiers and forced to kneel in the hall.
As a loyal lackey of the First Emperor, Zhao Gao originally thought that the emperor's execution of traitors had nothing to do with him, so he stood respectfully aside and watched the show.
Who knew that disaster would strike from the sky?
