After a night of turmoil in Xianyang City, the people were uneasy and did not dare to open their doors early in the morning.
At the entrance of Xianyang Palace, a large group of armored soldiers was holding countless prisoners and waiting for orders.
At the same time, a grand court meeting was being held in Zhangtai Palace.
Ying Zheng sat on the throne, his crown was sacred and majestic.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
The civil and military officials split into two groups and bowed respectfully. Because the court where Lu Buwei's henchmen had disappeared was rather empty.
The young king on the throne had displayed his iron-blooded skills last night. He had killed Chang 'an's Jun Chengjiao and forced the rebel army to land, settling a dangerous rebellion.
At this moment, no one dared to look down on Ying Zheng anymore. All of them were in awe of him, and were sincerely convinced.
"Everyone, please rise!"
Ying Zheng raised his hand and spoke in a dignified manner.
"Zhangsun Wuji, announce my final punishment for Lu Buwei and Lord Chang 'an's rebellion!”
Zhangsun Wuji immediately stepped forward. He cupped his hands and bowed, then unfolded a sacred royal decree.
" Your Majesty's decree: Lu Buwei is proud of his achievements and has power in the court. He is rebellious and has colluded with the Lord of Chang 'an to rebel.”
"Considering his past contributions and that he has no intention of killing the emperor, he will be stripped of all his official positions and titles and demoted to Shu!”
" Lu Buwei's henchmen, Wei Wei Jie, Secretary of State Gongsun Zhouye, and the others are unpardonable. They will be beheaded at the Meridian Gate and stripped of all their titles!”
"Order Nangong Yan and the others to rein in at the brink of the precipice. Their crimes do not warrant death.”
"Lord Chang 'an's henchmen have all been executed in the rebellion.”
……
After Zhangsun Wuji finished reading out a series of punishments, the armored soldiers immediately rushed out and dealt with all the rebels.
"Great King, please spare my life!"
"This subject has made contributions to the previous king and shed blood for Great Qin…"
"Great King! Your Majesty…"
Screams and wails came from the palace gate, but they quickly disappeared.
Outside the Meridian Gate, the executioner held a large knife and suddenly chopped down. Blood splattered everywhere and heads rolled down.
……
A group of soldiers carried a tray, on which were still warm and bloody human heads, and entered Zhangtai Palace to report to Ying Zheng.
"Your Majesty, Wei Wei Jie and the other sinners have all been killed!”
Ying Zheng swept a glance at them, then waved his hand to dismiss the soldiers.
When the ministers saw that the heads of the officials who had been chatting and laughing with them yesterday were placed on trays today, they were filled with endless fear and their faces were extremely pale.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"Such a traitor deserves to be killed!"
"Only by killing this traitor can the Great Qin Dynasty Hall be clearer!”
Regardless of whether the officials were sincere or not, they all echoed loudly and praised endlessly.
Ying Zheng reached out his hand to stop the crowd, then took out another imperial decree and gave it to them.
"I am young and only know one thing: Rewards and punishments are fair!"
"Those who are guilty will be punished, and those who have made contributions will be rewarded!"
Ying Zheng sat up straight and spoke solemnly. The ministers were immediately roused and listened attentively.
Everyone couldn't help but feel excited. With the important officials killed, there were many empty seats. Many people could take advantage of this opportunity to advance!
"Zhangsun Wuji, Bao Zheng, Li Si, and Guan Yu made the greatest contributions in quelling the chaos.”
"At this moment, I will bestow you with the title of Great Virtue, sixteen out of the twenty titles!”
"In addition, give me a pair of jade, ten bushels of pearls, and a thousand gold coins!”
Great Qin was established based on military merits and titles, and titles were extremely important and could not be easily messed with.
Suppressing the rebellion was also a military merit, and it could be conferred a title for Zhangsun Wuji and the others.
The four of them immediately stepped forward in pleasant surprise and bowed respectfully.
"Thank you for your reward, Your Majesty!"
After saying the four great meritorious officials, it was the turn of the old ministers of Great Qin.
Ying Zheng's eyes flashed as he unfolded the decree and spoke slowly.
"Meng Tian has done well in dealing with the rebel army. Meng Tian's younger brother, Meng Yi, had entered the palace as the commander of the guards!”
"Wei Liaozi is loyal and upright.”
"Wang Wan, Feng Jie, and the others will be promoted one by one to fill the positions of the three dukes and nine ministers…"
Ying Zheng's series of rewards had taken care of many of the old ministers of Great Qin, which made everyone very satisfied.
Everyone was in awe of Ying Zheng, this young king.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!"
"We will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty. We will do our best to assist Your Majesty and strengthen the Qin Country!”
Ying Zheng nodded in satisfaction, looking down at the newly repaired imperial court, his heart filled with excitement.
Naturally, these important ministers whom he had personally promoted were extremely loyal to Ying Zheng, and they all submitted to him respectfully.
With Zhangsun Wuji and the others, as well as a group of courtiers who had outstanding character and were promoted by Ying Zheng, the entire Great Qin Imperial Court was finally in the hands of Ying Zheng.
The people of the court were convinced. Internal communication and external communication, government orders smooth. The entire Qin Country was under the control of King Ying Zheng!
"Very good!"
"All of you are rare talents. With your help, why worry about our Great Qin not becoming powerful?”
"All of you, come with me and create a glorious Great Qin that will shine for all eternity!”
Ying Zheng opened his mouth in a solemn and sacred manner, revealing his lofty ambition, which made all the ministers admire him even more.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"Great Qin has such a wise ruler, and it is the fortune of countless people!”
"We are willing to follow Your Majesty and let Great Qin shine for eternity!”
……
Outside Xianyang City, Wei River.
Mo Xuan had been paying attention to everything in Xianyang City.
When he saw Ying Zheng's outstanding means, expelling Lu Buwei cleanly and killing Lord Chang 'an, his eyes were filled with excitement.
" As expected of Ying Zheng, the first emperor in history!"
"At such a young age, his methods are already so outstanding. He controls Eunuch Wang's court and everyone is convinced!”
"With such a ruler, Great Qin should be able to sweep through the six countries and unify the world!”
Mo Xuan's eyes shone with excitement.
At this moment, a crisp system notification sounded in Mo Xuan's mind.
"Ding! The Emperor Ying Zheng bound to the Host expelled Lu Buwei and his henchmen, killed the Lord of Chang 'an, and took complete control of the Imperial Court! Congratulations to Ying Zheng for obtaining the reward: Supreme Black Dragon Robe!”
"Ding! Ying Zheng, who is bound to the host, has completed the achievement of 'wielding great power'. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the reward: Green Lotus Seed of Fate!"
