"He should be killed!"
In the imperial court, Lu Buwei angrily rebuked with a murderous aura.
A wave of pressure rushed towards Ying Zheng's face!
Ying Zheng ascended into the sky on his purple cloud during his coronation ceremony. This event had already raised Ying Zheng's reputation in the imperial court to the peak, and many important ministers who were loyal to the Great Qin Dynasty were looking forward to seeing Ying Zheng grow up and take charge of the government!
If it weren't for the matter of Yellow Gate Magistrate Li Cui, Lu Buwei might not have had a good way to deal with Ying Zheng!
But now, Ying Zheng himself had made a mistake, so how could Lu Buwei not seize this opportunity!
The word " exterminate " came out of Lu Buwei's mouth like a thunderclap in spring. All the officials in the court were frightened, feeling the domineering and mighty might of the Prime Minister!
If he dared to reprimand even the king, one could imagine how terrifyingly deep Lu Buwei's foundation was!
Many ministers had their own thoughts…
However, in the face of Lu Buwei's furious rebuke, Ying Zheng remained kneeling on his throne, looking down at him from above, as cold as a god.
However, Lu Buwei seemed to have not noticed Ying Zheng's gaze. He muttered to himself for a moment, then continued speaking.
"Your Majesty is young and must have been deceived by a traitor, causing this old thief to act so fiercely!”
"Killing an official of Great Qin in front of the king is a crime that cannot be punished!”
"Someone come! Kill this person…"
……
"Zhongfu!"
Just as Lu Buwei was about to give the order to arrest Eunuch Sunflower, Ying Zheng, who was sitting on the throne, suddenly spoke!
"Hmm?"
"This subject has been ordered by the late king to assist the king in dealing with this old eunuch who killed an official of my Qin country. Does the king have any objections?”
Lu Buwei knew that Ying Zheng would not allow him to kill Eunuch Sunflower directly. Therefore, when Ying Zheng opened his mouth, he immediately used the righteous will of the late king to suppress him!
"Yellow Gate Magistrate Li Cui disobeyed the king's orders and disobeyed me. He is regarded as a traitor and everyone has the right to kill him. How can Zhongfu punish Eunuch Kuihua for this?”
Sitting on the throne, Ying Zheng spoke slowly.
"Your Majesty, the Yellow Gate ordered Li Cui to protect Your Majesty's bedroom and prevent others from entering. This was a special order from this subject for Your Majesty's safety.”
"This person is a loyal subject of Great Qin and has made many contributions. All the officials in the court know this, so how could he be a traitor? Haha, don't you think so, Your Majesty…"
Lu Buwei chuckled. Ying Zheng's political skills were still too immature, and Lu Buwei had completely disintegrated them with just a few words!
At this moment, Lu Buwei seemed to have seen Ying Zheng speechless, and finally, Eunuch Sunflower was suppressed by someone else, and he was going to beat Ying Zheng up and regain complete control of the imperial court!
However, things didn't go the way Lu Buwei wanted them to!
"Loyalty?"
"Does Zhongfu believe that Li Cui is loyal and not my words?”
"I am the ruler of the Qin country, and I inherit the destiny. The destiny is in my hands. Whether you are loyal or treacherous, is it up to me to decide, or is it up to Zhongfu?”
In the imperial court, Ying Zheng's cold voice was like a cold wind blowing in the middle of winter, causing the temperature of the entire imperial court to drop to the freezing point!
Lu Buwei thought that Ying Zheng would argue with him and protect Eunuch Sunflower with the laws of Qin. If that was the case, how could Ying Zheng be a match for Lu Buwei, who was familiar with the laws of Qin!
However, what Lu Buwei did not expect was that Ying Zheng had actually surpassed the laws of Qin and was above them!
He inherited the mandate of heaven and was the ruler of a country. Although the laws of Qin were dignified, how could they be as dignified as the ruler who made them?
In Ying Zheng's heart, the Son of Heaven was naturally above the laws of Qin!
His words caused an uproar among the officials. Even Lu Buwei, who had been calm and composed, was moved.
Lu Buwei could tell that this time, Ying Zheng was not only trying to protect Eunuch Sunflower, but also trying to use the power of the strange phenomenon that had descended from the sky during the Heaven Worshipping Ceremony yesterday to re-establish the supreme prestige of the King of Qin!
It was still the end of the Warring States Period, and most of the people were in awe of ghosts and gods. Previously, Ying Zheng ascended to immortality by riding on the purple gas, and this incident had already made many ministers in the court regard Ying Zheng as a sage king comparable to Yao and Shun, and his prestige was unparalleled. It was also because of this that Ying Zheng could take this opportunity to surpass the laws of Qin in the imperial court...
"I have spoken the laws of heaven. If I say he is a loyal minister, then he is a loyal minister! If I say he is a traitor, then he is a traitor!”
In Xianyang Palace, on the highest throne, Ying Zheng's voice, which seemed to be indifferent to all living beings, echoed between heaven and earth.
At this moment, the officials in the court seemed to see a supreme Heavenly Emperor rising slowly…
Good move!
Lu Buwei's eyes flashed with amazement.
Although Lu Buwei had an endless desire for power, Ying Zheng was still his disciple, and his power came from Ying Zheng. Their interests were fundamentally bound together!
Now that he saw his disciple's brilliance, Lu Buwei couldn't help but admire him.
However, he could not let Ying Zheng succeed in his plan. Otherwise, Lu Buwei could almost foresee that his control over the Imperial Court would drop to the freezing point...
However, just as the ministers were still in shock and Lu Buwei was about to retort…
Whoosh!
Rip...
……
Suddenly, the sound of tearing through the void came from the nine heavens.
A ray of light descended from the sky and entered Xianyang Palace, where the officials were having their morning assembly!
Bang!
Boom...
With a loud bang, the roof of Xianyang Palace was smashed into pieces. A divine sword, entirely black in color and emanating boundless divine might, descended from the sky and smashed into the palace, right in front of Ying Zheng's throne!
On the body of the divine sword, there were drawings of mountains, rivers, plants, birds, beasts, insects, and fish. An ancient and wild aura spread from the sword...
