This was an extraordinary day for Great Qin.
Great Qin's new King had officially inherited the throne, and in the eyes of the people, this was the start of a glorious life.
However, only the people in the imperial court could understand that the current Qin State was not controlled by the King of Qin, Ying Zheng. The real power was controlled by the Prime Minister, Lu Buwei.
When Qin Feng left, King Zhuang of Qin had given the throne to Ying Zheng and passed away a few years later.
The vast Qin State could not be left alone for a single day, but after Qin Feng's departure, the young Ying Zheng and Prince Zhuang of Qin could only entrust Lu Buwei with the task of assisting Ying Zheng and taking over the government.
But who would have thought that Lu Buwei's power was expanding day by day, to the point where his power was overwhelming. If not for Ying Zheng's forbearance all these years, calling Lu Buwei 'Zhongfu'(similar to his godfather), Ying Zheng himself did not know whether he would have been able to live until today.
It could be said that Ying Zheng's current situation was extremely worrying.
However, Ying Zheng had been waiting all this while. He had always believed that his brother would come back.
Because Ying Zheng always remembered the words Qin Feng had said to him with a gentle smile the day before he left,'Wait for me to come back!'!
......
Great Qin, Xianyang Palace.
"The coronation of the new king is complete!"
The Minister of Rites solemnly put on the crown for Ying Zheng, then put his palms together and slowly stepped back.
Ying Zheng slowly raised his head, a faint smile appearing on his face. Then, he waved his hand.
Instantly, everyone except Lu Buwei knelt down and saluted.
In ancient times, the coronation represented adulthood. It was similar to the coming-of-age ceremony today, but it was much grander. It was especially so for the royal family. It was an extremely solemn and sacred event.
In the entire Great Qin Empire, perhaps only Lu Buwei, the current Prime Minister, had the privilege of not bowing to Ying Zheng and not kneeling to him when he went to court.
This was also Ying Zheng's resourcefulness. If he had not tried to please Lu Buwei in every way, how could he, the King of Qin who had no real power, have survived until today?
Lu Buwei was in charge of the military and political affairs of the Great Qin Empire, and most of the civil and military officials in the court were Lu Buwei's disciples.
It could be seen how much power Lu Buwei had in Great Qin.
Although there were people in the Imperial Court who did not like Lu Buwei, they only dared to be angry but did not dare to speak up.
"Your Majesty, this old minister should have paid his respects to celebrate your crowning ceremony today, but yesterday, this old minister accidentally sprained his waist and it was really inconvenient. I hope Your Majesty will not blame me.”
Lu Buwei put his palms together and bowed slightly, saying apologetically.
Seeing Lu Buwei's reaction, all the officials knew what was going on.
Although it was just a small detail of not paying homage, there was a hidden mystery behind it. It seemed to be a signal, as if it was saying,'Don't think that I, Lu Buwei, am no longer the same Lu Buwei as before just because Ying Zheng is crowned king. I, Lu Buwei, still have the final say in Great Qin.'
All the civil and military officials present could see this kind of signal, so how could Ying Zheng not?
"There is no need for this, Zhongfu. Zhongfu has done his best for the country. Without Zhongfu's help, how could Great Qin be as prosperous as it is today? Zhongfu, you must take care of yourself.”
Although he was displeased, Ying Zheng understood his current situation even better, so he said with a natural smile on his face.
At the same time, outside Xianyang Palace, Qin Feng slowly walked into the palace.
When the guards in front of him saw Qin Feng approaching, they immediately became vigilant. After all, the current situation was different from the past. It was a more sensitive time for the new king to be crowned king.
"Who are you!"
The two armored soldiers immediately raised their spears and glared at Qin Feng.
The current Qin Country was already considered a relatively powerful country among the seven countries, and it was even more impossible for them to cut corners on their military strength and armaments.
A cold light glinted on the spear. The murderous aura of the soldiers who had been fighting on the battlefield for a long time was extremely majestic. If it was an ordinary family, just two shouts would make their feet go limp.
In response, Qin Feng's face did not have any expression at all. He still had a cold and indifferent appearance.
During these fifteen years, no one could imagine what Qin Feng had done. The fiendish faces of the soldiers at this moment simply couldn't cause any waves in Qin Feng's heart.
Qin Feng did not make any unnecessary movements and casually took out a bronze token from his waist. The word 'Maple' was extremely eye-catching, and it was surrounded by an emblem that only the Great Qin royal family could have.
"This is... This was…Kaede, Young Master Feng's waist token…”
The two soldiers could be considered to be senior generals. Although Qin Feng's appearance had changed in the past fifteen years, how could they not recognize Qin Feng's waist token?
The two of them looked at each other and looked at Qin Feng in disbelief.
Qin Feng naturally knew that the two of them had wanted to call him Crown Prince, but now that Ying Zheng was already a king, if they called him by the wrong name, they would most likely be killed.
However, Qin Feng didn't care about the way he addressed him now.
That was because there were simply too many ways to address Qin Feng now…
"Young Master Feng, you want to see the King?”
One of the guards swallowed his saliva and suppressed the fear in his heart as he spoke with a trembling voice.
Qin Feng nodded slightly, and before the two soldiers could reply, he started walking towards Xianyang Palace.
The two of them originally wanted to stop him, but before they could extend their hands to stop him, they saw Qin Feng suddenly turn his head and look at them. Instantly, the two of them were stunned on the spot, and their bodies went cold. A wave of fear spread in their hearts.
His gaze was filled with killing intent, as if he had experienced death, without a trace of emotion.
It was just a simple glance, but the two of them seemed to be in a battlefield where thousands of troops were fighting. Endless killing intent surrounded them, and life and death were only a thought away from each other.
The two of them stood stiffly on the spot, but one of them blocked in front of Qin Feng.
This person was the general in charge of this place, and more importantly, he was under Lu Buwei's command.
He had to inform Lu Buwei about the return of Crown Prince Qin Feng. Otherwise, he would not be able to bear the responsibility if Lu Buwei blamed him.
"Welcome back, Young Master Feng, but I hope that Young Master Feng can wait for a moment more. I will go and report to the Prime Minister…Your Majesty."
The general realized that he had almost said something wrong and immediately changed his words.
However, it was too late. How could Qin Feng not know Lu Buwei's current status?
And since he was now Ying Zheng's brother, he would never let go of everything in front of him.
Before the general could turn around, his eyes lost their color. A bloody mark appeared on his neck, but no blood flowed out.
The other armored guards only heard the sound of the long sword being sheathed, but none of them saw when Qin Feng pulled out his sword, let alone how Qin Feng cut his throat.
The two rows of hundreds of guards looked at the scene in disbelief.
No one had expected that such a situation would suddenly occur, and even more so, they had not expected that Qin Feng, who had returned fifteen years later, would actually be so powerful.
But even if Qin Feng was like this, what could they do to him? No matter what, Qin Feng was also the current King's blood brother. Who dared to make a move against him?
From the beginning to the end, Qin Feng's expression did not change at all. His face was still cold and indifferent. Everything was so natural, as if everything was supposed to be like this.
In the next moment, Qin Feng took a step forward. Like a ghost, he instantly appeared in front of Xianyang Palace, where Ying Zheng was crowned. Along the way, he only left behind a series of afterimages and two rows of soldiers holding long spears, who were glinting with cold light but looked as dumb as chickens.
At this moment, Ying Zheng had just given the order to give Lu Buwei a seat.
"Is he worthy?"
As soon as he finished speaking, another extremely cold voice suddenly appeared and reverberated in Xianyang Palace.
Qin Feng gently waved his hand. His fingers did not even touch the door, but the door of Xianyang Palace, which usually required two people to push, automatically opened.
Qin Feng stepped over the threshold and slowly walked into Xianyang Palace. He held a sword in his hand and was dressed in white. A domineering aura spread out, shocking everyone.
