All the officials watched the fight between Lu Buwei and Ying Zheng, but the neutral party remained silent.
Lao Ai's people had long since stopped thinking about the imperial court, and were all thinking about how to cut ties with Lao Ai.
However, the people Lu Buwei had promoted couldn't hold it in any longer.
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has good intentions.”
"The Prime Minister has been handling government affairs for many years and has his own experience. After the King has adapted, it won't be too late to let the Prime Minister retire and return home.”
These people had relied on Lu Buwei to rise to the top. Once Lu Buwei fell, they would have nothing to rely on.
"Since that's the case, Zhongfu will remove his position as an auxiliary minister and retain the position of Left Prime Minister.”
A smile hung on Ying Zheng's lips. He did not force Lu Buwei to retire and return to his hometown, as this was only the first step.
In addition, he had also noted down the officials who had stepped forward to plead for mercy. If Lu Buwei fell, it would be their turn!
Down below, Lu Buwei heaved a sigh of relief. He was not ready to fall out with Ying Zheng.
He could accept this result.
Although Ying Zheng was in power now, he did not lose his power.
"I want to establish the West Bureau of Investigation. Yu Huatian will be the supervisor of the West Bureau. He will be in charge of the punishment of all officials and will directly listen to me."
"I will establish another Embroidered Uniform Guards as my personal army. Azure Dragon will be the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards. His position is the same as the nine ministers and he will be in charge of patrolling the palace.？”
Since he was already in charge of the government, Ying Zheng naturally had to rectify the name of the West Chamber and the Royal Guards.
It was very inconvenient for the two departments to take his imperial edict every time they took action.
None of the officials objected, and Lu Buwei didn't say anything.
"West Hall, Embroidered Uniform Guards…Where did these people come from?”Lu Buwei looked deeply at the guards on both sides of Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng did not care about other people's guesses. He was the King of Qin, so why should he explain himself to his subjects?
As for Huo Qubing and Li Siye's positions, Ying Zheng had not made any arrangements for the time being.
In the Qin army, they spoke according to their achievements!
A rank-20 military duke. Every general had fought their way out of the battlefield.
Anyone who took up the position of general would have countless enemy lives in their hands and would have meritorious deeds.
Ying Zheng did not want to break this rule.
Therefore, he planned to reward Huo Qubing and his wife after they joined the army and earned some military merits when they went to war against the Six Nations.
The court fell silent. A eunuch beside Ying Zheng took a step forward.
"If there's anything, report. If there's nothing, withdraw!"
"Long live my king." The officials bowed.
Ying Zheng stood up and left the court.
At this moment, all the officials in the court heaved a sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty's might is increasing day by day. This is the blessing of our Qin country!”Unlike Lu Buwei's faction, the old nobles of the State of Qin smiled.
Lu Buwei glanced at them, then waved his sleeve and left the court.
A dozen ministers hurriedly followed after him. Today, Ying Zheng seized power, which was a dangerous signal.
"How carefree! Next time, I'll strip him of his title as Zhongfu!”Ying Zheng returned to his bedroom with a smile on his face.
This was the first time Lu Buwei had suffered a loss at his hands.
"Your Majesty, Yu Huatian requests an audience." A Brocade Guard reported.
"Xuan!"
Yu Huatian walked into the palace with a hint of exhaustion on his face. He had not slept the entire night, and had been running around outside the palace to investigate Lao Ai's external forces.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Have you found out the truth about Lao Ai?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Your Majesty, Lao Ai was originally a despicable man who was sent to the palace by Prime Minister Lu Buwei!”Yu Huatian replied.
"What about the others?" Ying Zheng's expression did not change. He knew a little about this matter.
"Lao Ai has three merchant associations in Xianyang, and they have been taken over by West Chamber. At the same time, it seems that there are quite a few people in the army who have a close relationship with Lao Ai!”
"I don't know about it in the martial world for now, but I heard that Wu Zhong, the Soul Severing Sword, had met Lao Ai before.”Yu Huatian emphasized Wu Zhong.
Thirty-three Swords of Spring and Autumn, ranked twenty-seventh in Wuzhong, a grandmaster expert!
" How dare a swordsman of the pugilistic world interfere with the power of the court…" Ying Zheng sneered. He would crush the pugilistic world sooner or later.
"This subordinate has already sent people to look for traces of Wu Zhong!”Yu Huatian said.
"Yes, those three merchant associations will belong to your West Hall.”Ying Zheng waved his hand and said.
"Thank you for your reward, Your Majesty!" Yu Huatian nodded. With the three Chamber of Commerce, the West Branch would be more convenient in the future.
"You may leave!" Ying Zheng waved his hand and pushed Yu Huatian back.
"System, as one of the 33 Swords of the Spring and Autumn Period and a top swordsman in the world, does this Soul Severing Sword Wu Zhong have great luck?”Ying Zheng called out to Li Changsheng in his heart.
He had gathered 100,000 energy points, but he still had no clue about the luck value.
A man like Lao Ai could be considered to be in power, but he did not have a single trace of fate on him.
"Ding, before the host sees Wu Zhong, the system cannot give an answer.”Li Changsheng shook his head. He did not know who Wu Zhong was.
Only when Ying Zheng came into contact with Wu Zhong would he be able to scan Wu Zhong's body to see if there was any luck on him.
"Ding! System Notification: The young prodigies of the pugilistic world are very likely to be people with great luck!”Li Changsheng thought about it and reminded him.
According to Li Changsheng's experience, most of the young geniuses were blessed with luck.
"In addition, if user destroys a country, he can also plunder the country's luck!”Li Changsheng suddenly remembered that every country in the Seven Kingdoms had their own fate.
If Ying Zheng killed one, he could plunder another.
"Six Nations!" Ying Zheng fell into deep thought.
He also wanted to annex the six dynasties and unify the Central Plains.
However, there were always some people in the State of Qin who obstructed his steps!
"After I get rid of Lu Buwei, I will send my army to conquer the world. I will destroy Han in one month and Zhao in three months!”Ying Zheng's eyes reflected the shadow of the world.
Li Changsheng watched as Brother Zheng's anger soared into the sky and thought to himself, Destroying Han in one month and Zhao in three months. By then, I'll be able to advance by at least three levels?”
