"Continue…"
Ying Ji almost laughed out loud when he heard those ridiculous words, but he managed to hold it in in the end.
Such words were too superficial and did not hit the point at all. They were just bootlicking for the sake of bootlicking.
"Moreover, we can also use this opportunity to weaken the strength of the Chu faction. This is something that Zi Meng learned from his grandfather's strategy.”
"As such, killing Bai Qi will bring many benefits and stabilize Great Qin's foundation.”
Thinking that his grandfather was intentionally listening to him, as if he was speaking to his heart, Ying Zihua spoke even more enthusiastically.
"What you said just now is very reasonable. Zi Meng, you are getting better and better.”
Hearing this, Ying Ji completely lost his patience to continue the conversation.
"Grandfather, you flatter me. I only said everything that grandfather wanted to say.”
His tone was exactly the same as the truth. Ying Zihua didn't suspect him at all and said humbly.
"Grandfather is tired. Zi Meng, you can leave first.”
Ying Ji didn't seem to be angry on the spot or show any other emotions, but in fact, it was the prelude to the storm.
"Yes, grandfather. Zi Huan will take his leave."
Seeing that he had achieved half of his plan, Ying Zihua didn't refuse and left the palace happily.
Once he became the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace, he would become the respected ruler of Great Qin, wielding supreme authority.
"With such knowledge and talent, so what if he ascends the throne? He's just a puppet controlled by someone.”
After experiencing two consecutive bursts of anger today, Ying Ji couldn't help but shake his head. He was disappointed.
"It's not important to have an ordinary background; what's important is that you have the bearing of a ruler and lead Great Qin to conquer the east, destroy the six countries, and unify the world.”
Thinking of the outstanding performance of the royal grandson Ying Rui, Ying Ji's bad mood was instantly swept away, and he no longer had that bitter look on his face.
This was the obsession of four generations of people, including himself. In other words, this was the eternal obsession of Great Qin.
His grandson Ying Rui might be the hope of fulfilling the wishes of his ancestors!
"Sister, how is it? What did you find out?”
Seeing that her sister had returned, Mi Chen, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately went up to her and asked.
"The matter of adoption has been postponed and I have been told to wait for the imperial order. In other words, father has no suitable candidate.”
After returning to her residence from the palace, Madam Hua Yang took a breath and her voice sank.
"Fortunately, sister persuaded us in time. Otherwise, the king would have taken the lead to deal with us.”
It was not a good thing to step into the muddy waters of the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace. When Mi Chen thought about it, he secretly admired his sister's calmness.
The position of the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace had been vacant for too long. Without a good opportunity, whoever dared to openly fight for it would be the first to suffer.
"There is another possibility. Father already has a candidate in mind, but he just hasn't found the right time.”
She glanced at her younger brother, Jun Mi Chen of Yangquan, and then looked out of the window. Then, she revealed the second possibility.
Of course, without Empress Dowager Xuan's advice, she would not have thought so much.
"Sister, who do you think is the most likely candidate?”
" A candidate recognized by a great ruler is definitely not a simple character," Mi Chen said subconsciously.
"In the entire Ying Royal Clan, my husband and his peers don't have any outstanding disciples.
"As for the royal descendants, regardless of their ordinary background, only Eldest Young Master Ying Rui is the most outstanding.”
As soon as she said it, Madam Hua Yang confirmed her guess and felt a sense of regret in her heart.
He shouldn't have hesitated too much. If he had adopted Ying Rui earlier, not only would the Chu Family's power be boosted, but the Mi Family would also be rich.
"Sister, you're saying that the King will pass the throne to Eldest Young Master Ying Rui?!”
In Mi Chen's previous understanding, people with ordinary backgrounds had no chance. He did not expect it to be Eldest Young Master Ying Rui.
However, he had to admit that the other party had a set of methods. From a soldier accumulating military merits to Zuo Shu Chang, ordinary people could not do it.
"There is a very high possibility. Other than him, the others probably won't enter my father's eyes.”
Madam Hua Yang knew a little about her father's means and vision, so she gave him a great affirmation.
"If that's the case, Third Young Master Yiren and Lu Buwei almost killed us.”
It was fine if the other party had lied to her, but it would also bring irreversible losses. Mi Chen's anger rose.
"It's not too late to make a change now. Since Father has clearly said that we can't participate in the matter of adoption or the competition for the position of Crown Prince.”
After thinking about it, Madam Hua Yang decided not to take the risk.
Even if she did not adopt Eldest Young Master Ying Rui, as long as she did not make a fatal mistake, she would become Great Qin's second Empress Dowager.
Most importantly, there was no record of hostility between the two sides. At most, they did not interact much.
"How should I deal with Young Master Yiren and Lu Buwei?”
Mi Chen, who had begun to feel that it was reasonable, no longer complained.
"Let's delay them for a day or two. If Father really appoints Eldest Young Master Ying Rui, it will be revealed in the next few days.”
Thanks to the conversation with her father, Empress Dowager Hua Yang's thoughts became much clearer. She came to a conclusion with her rich political experience.
"Yes, sister."
Everyone knew that the king was about to die. If there really was a candidate to succeed the throne, the earlier the better.
Speaking of which, it was all thanks to her sister's meticulous mind that she managed to get some information from the King.
"Mr. Lu, how is the matter of the adopted young master going?”
The Third Young Master Ying Yiren, who was particularly interested in the position of Crown Prince in the Eastern Palace, addressed Lu Buwei, who was originally a businessman, as 'mister.'
"I've already persuaded Yangquan Jun and Mi Chen. He just sent someone to say that he needs to operate for the next two days.”
Lu Buwei, who was a businessman, was pleased to be addressed as Mr. Lu.
As long as he helped Young Master Yiren ascend to the throne, he could only rely on himself in the end. He believed that his status would also rise along with him, and he would be able to get rid of his ordinary status at the bottom.
"With Mister Lu's help, the matter of adoption is not a problem. In the future, I will definitely thank Mister Lu heavily to repay your kindness today.”
With just a few words to convince Yangquan Jun Mi Chen and then change his fate through the upcoming adoption, Ying Yiren said in high spirits.
He had thought that he would not be able to become the King, but he had been fortunate enough to meet Lu Buwei, who had solved all his problems. Now, he only needed to become the supreme ruler of Great Qin.
"Third Young Master, of course. If you don't have full confidence, how can you help Young Master?”
Lu Buwei said with a smile," I want to make it a rare commodity that can be hoarded. I've planned this from the beginning."
