The sun rose and the moon set.
In the palace of Zhangtai, the ministers went to court early in the morning.
However, Great Qin's important officials remained silent during the morning assembly, and a solemn atmosphere filled the Imperial Court.
"The king has arrived!"
Soon, Ying Zheng arrived and ascended the throne amidst the shrill voice of the eunuch.
"Greetings, my king!"
"Greetings, my king!"
In the Zhangtai Palace, the ministers were paying their respects. Ying Zheng sat on the throne, looking down at the world like a god.
"If there's anything, report. If there's nothing, withdraw!"
The eunuch beside Ying Zheng stepped forward and spoke.
The ministers were silent, and the entire Zhangtai Palace was dead silent.
After an unknown amount of time, an official with a black face and a moon birthmark on his forehead stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, Lao Ai rebelled yesterday and was executed. The rest of the party members, including Shi Si, Wei Wei Jie, and the rest, were captured and torn apart at Caishikou at noon today!”
"However, the positions of Wei Wei and Internal History are still vacant. I and Di Renjie will take over.”
Bao Zheng was full of vigor, advising Ying Zheng with a solemn expression.
The positions of Wei Wei and Internal History were important officials of the royal court and needed to be conferred by the royal court before they could take effect!
Although Ying Zheng had seized these two offices with his own strength, and appointed his trusted aides to temporarily take over the positions of Wei Wei and Internal History, he still had to make another trip to the imperial court!
"Correct!"
Ying Zheng sat on the throne, his tone cold.
Appointing Wei and internal history was within the scope of Lu Buwei's power. But now, Ying Zheng had bypassed Lu Buwei and made him king on the spot!
In that instant, an invisible storm seemed to rise within Zhangtai Palace!
Ying Zheng was fighting for power over Lu Buwei with the imperial court, and all the people in the imperial court were smart. At this moment, they all felt a sense of impending storm, and the timid ones were even trembling with fear!
"Great King!"
As expected, Lu Buwei stepped out of the court.
Ying Zheng was trying to seize his authority, and if Lu Buwei dared to show any slight neglect, those followers who were attached to him would probably disperse in a hubbub in a few days!
Therefore, whether Lu Buwei was willing or not, he could only brace himself and take the blow!
On the throne, Ying Zheng looked at him coldly.
In the past, Ying Zheng had addressed Lu Buwei as the father of the prime minister, and he could go to court on his sword. He did not bow to the king, and his status was revered. But now, under Ying Zheng's cold gaze, Lu Buwei suddenly panicked!
"Your Majesty, the appointment of Wei Wei and Neishi has always been the Prime Minister's authority. How can Your Majesty bypass the Prime Minister and directly appoint Wei Wei and Neishi?”
Lu Buwei raised his head and looked at Ying Zheng. Looking at the young emperor who was sitting on the throne, looking as majestic as a Heavenly Emperor, Lu Buwei was filled with astonishment.
Was this still the same Ying Zheng who had always been submissive when talking to him, who had always addressed him as Prime Minister's father?
At this moment, Lu Buwei realized that the young man whom he had underestimated and thought he could easily control was about to transform into a giant dragon…
"What's wrong? Does Minister Lyu have any objections?"
Ying Zheng sat on his throne, looking down at Lu Buwei from above, like a supreme emperor!
Sensing Ying Zheng's unyielding attitude, a bone-piercing cold wind seemed to have stirred up in the entire imperial court. All the courtiers were trembling with fear. As the saying goes, when immortals fight, they were afraid that they would be implicated!
Looking at Ying Zheng, who was now a complete stranger to him, Lu Buwei felt a surge of anger in his heart.
If it weren't for Lu Buwei, how could Ying Zheng ascend to the throne? He had just ascended the throne, and he actually wanted to burn the bridge after crossing the river?
"There is still a long way to go to become a wise ruler! Your Majesty, you can't be too hasty!"
"In the past, Your Majesty knew the law and followed etiquette. Although you were young, you already had the appearance of a wise ruler. The reason why you are so reckless now must have been deceived by a villain!”
"Men, bring the king back to the ancestral temple to reflect on himself for a day!”
Lu Buwei shouted, his tone filled with cold anger.
However, the officials didn't move and there was no movement outside Zhangtai Palace!
"Men!"
Lu Buwei finally sensed that something was wrong, and he subconsciously turned to look outside Zhangtai Palace.
One had to know that before the morning court session, he had already arranged for the Imperial Army Commander, Wang Yi, to make preparations in advance for a military remonstrance today!
But now, what about Wang Yi?
"Is Minister Lyu waiting for him?"
Suddenly, Zhao Yun stepped into Zhangtai Palace, covered in blood. She tossed a bloody head at Lu Buwei's feet.
Lu Buwei was so frightened that he took a step back. When he took a closer look, he realized that the owner of the head was Wang Yi!
Thud!
In Zhangtai Palace, Lu Buwei's trusted aides were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground!
"You! You…"
Lu Buwei was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
"Ha!"
"The imperial guards of the palace are responsible for protecting the king. Wang Yi was a traitor and attempted to incite the soldiers to rebel.”
Zhao Yun bowed respectfully to Ying Zheng.
"Ying Zheng!"
"I supported you to ascend to the throne, but today, you have done such a thing. Are you really not afraid of chaos in the world?”
Lu Buwei was filled with rage and exasperation, and he even called Ying Zheng by his name!
Sitting on the throne, Ying Zheng was like a high and mighty god, cold and emotionless, not paying any attention to Lu Buwei at all. On the other hand, Zhao Yun, who was standing at the side, could not help but reveal a mocking smile upon hearing his words.
"The world is in chaos?"
"Ha! Was Minister Lyu counting on Wang Cheng, who was stationed in Shu?”
"Your Majesty, Chang 'an Jun Chengjiao has already led his troops to guard the various roads leading to Xianyang in Shu. I believe that Chang' an Jun's army should be able to suppress Wang Cheng!”
……
Clang!
Hearing this, Lu Buwei dropped the jade board in his hand to the ground.
Lu Buwei's face turned ashen.
The situation was already over!
The situation was already over…
"Men, take Minister Lu away!"
Zhao Yun gave the order, and immediately, several palace guards rushed out from outside Zhangtai Palace like wolves and tigers, picking Lu Buwei up and dragging him away.
"Ding! The Emperor Ying Zheng bound to the host has completed the task of expelling Lu Buwei. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the reward…"
……
P.S. A little late. * Cough cough * Alright, I slept last night, so I stayed up even later. But this was from yesterday. Today was the fourth day.
He also asked for fresh flowers. People complained that there were too few flowers, and all the other data was fake! helpless
