How was Lao Ai killed?
In fact, Lao Ai had the confidence to suppress the mutiny, and that was to return to the court himself. But, he never expected that Lao Ai would die before he could even make a move.
Who else in Great Qin had the ability to destroy Lao Ai?
The Golden Fire Cavalry were currently fighting with the State of Wei, so it was impossible for them to return.
The Hundred-Battle Armor-Piercing Army had gone to patrol the border to guard against the Xiongnu. It couldn't have been them.
Then, Ying Zheng thought of Fan Yuqi!
He was a general of the Great Qin Empire, but his talent could not be compared to Meng Tian's. He was only average. However, he was loyal to Cheng Jiao, so most of Cheng Jiao's troops were led by Fan Yuqi. However, they would not send troops! Because they did not like Ying Zheng to have everything going smoothly after he became king.
If that was the case, Ying Zheng really had no idea who had killed Lao Ai.
Could this news be fake?
"This is the bamboo slip that Lord Feng Quji gave to the king.”
Under Ying Zheng's gaze, the soldiers who came from Xianyang to report to him finally remembered this matter.
The bamboo slip was in Ying Zheng's hands. He opened it and saw that it was indeed Feng Quji's handwriting!
It was true!
Did he really kill Lao Ai?
Ying Zheng closed his eyes, but the smile on his face could not be hidden. But he still tried his best to maintain his dignity in front of his subjects.
This was Ying Zheng!
He would never express his inner thoughts. This was also what made Zhao Ji, this mother, afraid!
" Lao Ai is dead," Ying Zheng said blandly." Now, we can return to Xianyang directly."”
After finishing the last word, Ying Zheng immediately felt his entire body relax, and his hanging heart was finally relieved. The officials in the palace were overjoyed, and they congratulated Ying Zheng one after another.
"Your Majesty is blessed."
"Great Qin will last for thousands of generations."
If he didn't suck up to her, when would he?
In the eyes of many ministers, this was a common problem of the king!
Hearing the flattery, Ying Zheng's expression was cold, but he was also delighted in his heart.
Suddenly, the soldier took out a bamboo slip from his pocket.""Reporting to the king, the empress dowager asked me to personally hand this to the king.”
Ying Zheng frowned slightly. He did not know how to deal with his mother, and his heart was in a mess. However, his face was still cold and emotionless, not letting anyone guess his thoughts.
He took the bamboo slip and found that it was not a plea for mercy, but a message from Lady Zhao telling Ying Zheng that there was a very dangerous person in Xianyang City.
After reading it, Ying Zheng's expression changed. After a long time, he put down the bamboo slips and remained silent for a long time, as if he was considering something.
The other officials were at a loss for what to do. Only Lu Buwei walked up and said,""Let me take a look at this bamboo scroll."
Lu Buwei said,
The ministers all looked up, wondering what their king would do at this time.
Generally speaking, it was disrespectful for an official to say such a thing.
But it was Lu Buwei who said this!
He had gone from a merchant to the true ruler of the State of Qin. This person was not simple, and the ministers did not dare to offend him easily.
Ying Zheng's hawk-like cold gaze turned to Lu Buwei. Lu Buwei's eyes were serious as he confronted Ying Zheng, not showing any weakness.
When Ying Zheng was young, Lu Buwei had been teaching him.
To Ying Zheng, he was a king, but in Lu Buwei's heart, Ying Zheng was nothing but his king.
Or is it Lu Buwei's?
Ying Zheng was furious. He was already in charge of the government, but he was still like a puppet. Ying Zheng did not want to give it to him, he wanted to protect his dignity as a king. However, Ying Zheng was wary of Lu Buwei's power.
When Chang Wenjun saw this, he immediately walked up and said," Your Majesty, the Jun Family is selfless!"
He had given Ying Zheng a way to step down!
You showed Lu Buwei the bamboo slips not because you were afraid, but because the emperor had no private affairs!
What would Ying Zheng do then?
Right now, Lu Buwei was staring at Ying Zheng with a stern gaze.
