This was because a person who had been dead for more than two years had suddenly appeared in front of them. More importantly, this person was the First Emperor who had once ruled the world.
"Moon, Moon God greets His Majesty the First Emperor. Long live His Majesty!”Soon, the Moon Goddess recovered from her shock and knelt on the ground. She placed her hands on the ground and pressed her forehead against the ground as she spoke very respectfully.
However, Yueshen's voice was trembling. Even her body was trembling. Her face was pale, and her heart was filled with fear and unease. The domineering First Emperor was still alive and had returned. This was the beginning of many people's nightmares, including the Yinyang School. Whether they could escape this disaster would depend on the First Emperor's mood. This was the reason why she was truly afraid and uneasy.
Apart from Zhao Gao and Qin II, the nobles of the Six Nations and the Hundred Schools of Philosophy were also secretly adding fuel to the fire. If they did not completely mess up the Qin Country, how could they take advantage of the situation?
Only in troubled times could heroes and villains emerge!
This included the Yin-Yang School that she belonged to.
As the protector of the Yin-Yang School, Yueshen naturally knew many secrets and even participated in them. Who could stay out of the world of war?
She didn't have time to think about why the First Emperor was still alive. All she could think about was the consequences of the First Emperor being alive.
She was faced with a choice. On one side was the First Emperor, and on the other side was the Yin-Yang School and Donghuang Taiyi of the Yin-Yang School. She had to choose a person to be loyal to.
Especially the First Emperor. She had served him for many years, so she naturally understood his domineering personality. She knew that the First Emperor would never allow those who were loyal to him to be two-timing. This was also why she had been loyal to the First Emperor wholeheartedly when he was still alive. She even dared to disobey the orders of Donghuang Taiyi for the First Emperor, and Donghuang Taiyi didn't dare to say anything. This was the power of the First Emperor.
However, not long after the First Emperor's death, all kinds of evil spirits and monsters appeared, and the Yin-Yang School was no exception.
Yueshen had been ordered by Donghuang Taiyi to kill the person related to the Emperor Star. Without the First Emperor's support, Yueshen naturally didn't dare to disobey Donghuang Taiyi's orders.
Now, she seemed to have guessed that the person related to the Emperor Star was the First Emperor. Only the First Emperor had this ability, and only the First Emperor could make her unable to deduce anything.
However, when she saw the First Emperor, the first thing she thought of was not to carry out the Eastern Emperor Taiyi's mission. Instead, she chose to kneel in front of the First Emperor with a very respectful attitude.
This might have been the Moon Goddess 'subconscious, but it also showed how much power the First Emperor held in her heart. A person who could make the arrogant Moon Goddess bow down to him the moment they met, a person who would make her unable to resist.
Perhaps the Moon Goddess didn't need to worry about what to do. Her actions had already expressed her thoughts.
Shao Si Ming, who was behind Yueshen, also kneeled on the ground obediently like Yueshen. His forehead was pressed against the ground, not moving at all.
"I want to know, is the Moon Goddess the protector of the Yin-Yang School or the protector of the Great Qin Empire?”Ying Zheng looked at the Moon Goddess, who was trembling on the ground, and said in a flat voice. His body was exuding the majesty and imposing manner of an emperor, which made the Moon Goddess and Shaosi Ming, who were kneeling on the ground, feel suffocated.
Ying Zheng's meaning was very obvious: Are you loyal to the Yin-Yang School or the Great Qin Empire? This was forcing the Moon Goddess to make a choice.
"The Moon Goddess will always be loyal to His Majesty!" Yueshen said respectfully, her tone extremely firm.
She did not directly answer the First Emperor's question, nor did she say whether she was on the Yin-Yang School's side or the Great Qin Empire's side. She only said," I will always be loyal to His Majesty." Her meaning was very straightforward, and there was even a hint of flattery in it. She would only be loyal to the First Emperor. If the First Emperor made her the Guardian of the Yin-Yang School, then she would be the Guardian of the Yin-Yang School. If he made her the Great Qin Empire's Guardian Mage, then she would be the Great Qin Empire's Guardian Mage.
Moreover, she had always been doing this back then. However, after the death of the First Emperor, she had no choice but to stand on the side of the Yin-Yang School.
"Hahahaha…What a good way to be loyal to me forever!”After hearing the Moon Goddess's answer, Ying Zheng was slightly stunned at first, but he could not help but burst out laughing. Obviously, he was very satisfied with the Moon Goddess's answer.
"I heard that the Yin-Yang School is supporting Liu Bang?”Then, Ying Zheng wiped away the smile on his face and said lightly.
"Yes, sir!" The Moon Goddess blurted out without thinking. Perhaps she didn't dare to hide it at all.
"How many people from the Yin-Yang School are still loyal to me?”Ying Zheng asked.
"As long as Your Majesty gives the order, I think most of the Yin-Yang School will be willing to continue to serve Your Majesty.”Yueshen continued to kneel on the ground.
"What about the Hundred Schools of Philosophy?" Ying Zheng continued asking.
"There should be less than half." Yueshen said softly after some thought.
She knew that as long as the First Emperor appeared, be it the Yinyang School or the other Hundred Schools of Philosophy, other than those who had already boarded the pirate ship and had no other way out, many people would choose to wait and see even if they did not defect. After all, the First Emperor had subdued the Hundred Schools of Philosophy back then.
"How is the situation in Xianyang City?”Ying Zheng asked again.
"His Majesty Qin II only knows how to eat, drink, and play, and the power has basically fallen into the hands of the Zhao experts. Now, the rebels from all over Great Qin have sent out their troops, especially Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's hundreds of thousands of soldiers who are about to reach Xianyang City.”Yueshen had always been in Xianyang Palace, so she knew the situation in Xianyang City like the back of her hand.
"Right now, there are only tens of thousands of Qin soldiers in Xianyang City, and I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on for long. His Majesty the Second has already sent an edict to transfer General Wang Li, who is guarding the Great Wall in the north to defend the Xiongnu, to Xianyang City with his 300,000 troops.”Yueshen continued.
After hearing this, Ying Zheng frowned deeply. He knew that the army in the north was the Meng Army, but it was taken over by Wang Li after Meng Tian's death. And that army only had three hundred thousand soldiers. If they were all brought back, wouldn't the Xiongnu in the north be able to march straight into the Central Plains? This was something he did not want to see.
Most importantly, Wang Li's army of 300,000 met Xiang Yu's army and was completely wiped out. That was the famous Battle of Julu. They did not even return to Xianyang before this army was wiped out.
"Which general is in charge of the Xianyang army now?”Ying Zheng asked.
"It's General Zhang Han from the Shadow Secret Guards!”Yueshen replied.
Ying Zheng let out a sigh of relief after hearing this. Zhang Han was also his trusted aide, and with him around, Xianyang City was safe for the time being.
Ying Zheng then stood up and went to his desk, writing two documents in succession.
"Get up. Immediately send a few trusted subordinates to send these two documents out. This one is for Wang Li, and the other is for Zhao Tuo, who is guarding the Bai Yue.”Ying Zheng came before the Moon Goddess and handed over two documents to her.
