247 B.C., the third year of King Zhuang Xiang of Qin.
Great Qin, Xianyang City, Xianyang Palace.
"Cough cough!"
An ear-piercing and weak cough suddenly sounded from within this solemn and dignified hall.
Inside the hall, the lamps were lit up, and it was silent inside and outside. A heavy and oppressive atmosphere surrounded the surroundings.
Apart from the sounds of the maids and servants walking around, it was terrifyingly quiet in this pitch-black hall.
Even if a needle fell to the ground, it could be heard clearly.
In the middle of the hall, there was a luxurious and majestic wooden bed. Four black curtains were slowly falling.
A thin, pale, and old figure was lying on it, panting slightly. His chest was still rising and falling slightly.
Only the faint and slightly labored breathing showed that this person was still alive.
"Ha, huff huff!"
Suddenly, an intense and rapid breathing sound was heard. In an instant, the figure who was lying on the bed suddenly opened his eyes.
His slightly turbid eyes were glowing again at this moment, and his originally dark and gloomy face also turned red.
It was as if he had regained his senses at this moment. He suddenly became like a normal person and sat up abruptly.
Suddenly, a slightly weak but dignified voice filled with the aura of a king echoed in the palace.
"Quickly order Lord Yongyang, Empress Dowager Huayang, Prime Minister and Zong Zheng to come to Xianyang Palace for a meeting. This king wants to entrust the funeral affairs to them.”
At some point in time, the figure who was originally lying on the bed had already sat up. He leaned against the bed behind him and decisively gave his orders.
At this moment, the man was dressed in black. Although his face was not handsome, he was firm and mighty.
Just as the man sat up and gave the order, he suddenly realized that the maids and servants who had been coming and going in the hall were all kneeling on the ground in fear. Their heads were on the ground, and they did not dare to speak. Their bodies were trembling.
"Great King! Your Majesty, you're finally awake! Someone, quickly summon the medical officer to treat the king!”
The only one present who could stand and bow was an old eunuch. When he saw that the man had woken up, he immediately went forward in joy and immediately ordered his subordinates to gather the medical officer.
"Enough, there's no need to do this. I know my body very well. Immediately send someone to inform the few lords and the empress dowager to come over!
I'm afraid that destiny has arrived! It's a pity that Great Qin has yet to succeed!"
"Great King! Your Majesty!" Hearing this, the old chamberlain couldn't help but shout in fear.
Hearing this, the man's expression became gloomy and powerless. He was the supreme king of Great Qin, King Zhuang Xiang of Qin, Ying Zichu, or perhaps Ying Yiren!
Prince Zhuang Xiang raised his hand reluctantly, his eyes full of unwillingness!
No matter what status or identity one had, once one faced death, one would inevitably feel fear and unwillingness!
Especially since he had just ascended the throne less than three years ago, his ambition had yet to be fulfilled. However, even so, he could not avoid the end of his life.
It was also because of this that for Great Qin's stability and for Great Qin's throne to be smoothly handed over, he had to make arrangements for the next generation before he died.
"You have to find Lord Yongyang first. You can summon the rest later!
Lord Yongyang must arrive first. I have a secret matter to discuss with him.”
At this moment, Prince Zhuangxiang of Qin seemed to have thought of something. He actually opened his mouth to stop the old chamberlain's actions and added,
It sounded as if Lord Yongyang was more trusted by the other party. He actually wanted to meet the other party in advance before his death. It could be seen that Lord Yongyang had a special status to Prince Zhuang Xiang!
Everyone knew that the most important person to King Zhuang Xiang was the current Prime Minister of the Great Qin Empire, Lu Buwei!
After all, it was Lu Buwei who had single-handedly helped King Zhuang Xiang of Qin to ascend to the throne. It was also the other party who had plotted to bring the current Crown Prince of Qin, Ying Zheng, and his mother, Zhao Ji, back to Qin!
However, the truth was the opposite. This Lord Yongyang was far less famous than Lu Buwei. It could be said that other than the officials and nobles in the Qin State, no one in the other six states knew his name, and no one had heard of his past!
Yet, such a person had received a treatment that far exceeded Lu Buwei's. How could this not make people curious?
Qin Capital Xianyang, northeast side, Lord Yongyang's residence.
Two teams of elite soldiers stood outside the mansion. The soldiers were brave, cold, and emotionless. One look and one could tell that they were elites who had been through hundreds of battles.
In particular, there were two rows of black and sharp halberds standing in front of the mansion, emitting a cold and murderous aura. This indicated that the owner of this place was a noble with military achievements.
In the mansion, there were gardens everywhere. The paths merged with heaven and earth and were closely integrated with the surrounding environment. Heaven and man were one, and all things were born together. It was quiet and simple, but it was also mysterious and unusual.
At this moment, an unknown scene was playing out in this quiet mansion.
"The bad guys under the command of the Wei Kingdom have come to pay their respects to the marshal!”
Suddenly, in this quiet garden pavilion filled with exotic flowers and herbs, with a faint fragrance assaulting the nose, all kinds of rare herbs grew at will, and the vitality was abundant.
Suddenly, a slightly low but extremely respectful voice was heard.
Suddenly, he saw a man wearing a black robe and a bronze mask. He was kneeling on one knee facing the person in front of him.
"Get up! How was the situation at the front line of Wei? What is the result of the reaction of Lord Xinling and the other countries that I asked you to monitor?”
Suddenly, a clear and calm voice that was devoid of any emotion spread out. Suddenly, the figure of the black-robed man standing with his hands behind his back slowly turned around.
The moment the other party turned around, a breeze suddenly appeared on the ground. The Yuan Qi seemed to be excited and churned. The breeze was gentle, and the ripples on the surface of the lake rippled. Everything seemed to have become alive at this moment!
The person in front of him was handsome and had a majestic aura. His eyes were especially wise and deep, as if there were thousands of military strategies and endless wisdom hidden within. The mysteries of the stars were all within, showing how extraordinary he was!
And this person was the owner of this place, the current Lord Yongyang!
