In the Great Qin Empire, everyone knew that the First Emperor's eldest son was the eldest son, Fusu.
However, in reality, Fu Su was only the eldest son of Great Qin in the eyes of the world, not the real eldest son of the First Emperor.
More than twenty years ago, in order to seek peace, the State of Zhao had offered up Ying Zheng's childhood sweetheart, Afang, a woman from the State of Zhao.
Along with it was the national treasure of the Zhao country, the Heshi jade.
At that time, Ying Zheng had yet to take charge of the government, and the power of Qin was in the hands of Empress Dowager Huayang, Empress Dowager Zhao Ji, her male pet Lao Ai, and Prime Minister Lu Buwei.
Ying Zheng, who had no real power, was depressed. It was only because of the companionship of the fangnu that he could be relieved.
Later, the mistress became pregnant and gave birth to a baby boy, the eldest son of the King of Qin, Ying Zheng. This news reached the ears of Empress Dowager Huayang and caused her displeasure.
Empress Dowager Huayang was born in the State of Chu. She was the niece of Mi Yue, Empress Dowager Xuan of the Great Qin Dynasty, and also the queen of King Xiaowen of the Qin Dynasty. She was Ying Zheng's grandmother in name, and held the power of the Chu family in the royal court of the State of Qin. She had great power and was the true Empress Dowager of the State of Qin.
She had arranged for a princess of the Chu State to be in Ying Zheng's harem. Her original intention was to let her Chu family give birth to the eldest son of the King of Qin, the future Crown Prince of the Qin State.
Seeing that Ying Zheng doted on Afang, a woman from the State of Zhao, and even gave birth to the first son of the King of Qin, he was very dissatisfied. He secretly sent people to harm Afang and the Eldest Young Master several times, but failed.
Ying Zheng was furious, but he had no power to resist. In order to protect Afang and his eldest son, he had no choice but to secretly send them out of the palace, and sent his trusted general Fan Yuqi to lead a team of secret guards to protect them.
Unexpectedly, Fan Yuqi was bribed by Empress Dowager Huayang with a large sum of money. He suddenly turned against her and brought the assassins of Empress Dowager Huayang to harm Afang and the eldest son.
The Shadow Secret Guards fought to the death, but they were outnumbered. At the critical moment, Afang placed the Eldest Young Master and his keepsake in a wooden basin and sent them away along the Wei River behind the house.
By the time the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, arrived after hearing the news, all of the Shadow Secret Guards had died in battle, Afang was seriously injured and on the verge of death, and the Eldest Young Master was nowhere to be found.
Before Ah Fang died, he told everything to Ying Zheng, and begged Ying Zheng to find their child and raise him no matter what.
Ying Zheng was filled with grief. While he was enduring hardships and trying his best to plan his revenge, he ordered the Shadow Secret Guards to search for the Eldest Young Master with all their might.
As time went by, Ying Zheng overthrew Empress Dowager Huayang, Zhao Ji, Lao Ai, and the others, and even got the head of Fan Yuqi, who had fled to the Yan Kingdom. But, there was still no news of his eldest son.
After Ying Zheng had unified the world, he had given the Shadow Secret Guards strict orders to search for that child in the entire world.
He had even brought Wang Jian and Wang Ben to visit him in disguise, hoping to find his eldest son.
However, it was all in vain.
Although he did not dare to think about it, Ying Zheng knew very well that the child might have been drowned by the Wei River, or eaten by wild beasts, and most likely, he was no longer alive.
After all, the chances of a baby surviving in such a situation were minuscule!
However, Ying Zheng refused to believe it.
The love of his life, Afang, was no longer around. He had failed to protect her well. If he could not even find their child, how could he face the woman who had sacrificed her life for him?
Thinking of this, the supreme First Emperor rubbed the Xuan Bird Jade Pendant in his palm, his eyes filled with tears!
This jade pendant was made from He Shi Bi.
Back then, the State of Zhao presented the Heshi Jade and the Fangnu to Ying Zheng. Ying Zheng immediately ordered his men to polish the Heshi Jade into the shape of the Imperial Jade Seal, and then used the leftover bits and pieces to make a pair of Black Bird Jade Pendants.
One was worn by Ying Zheng, and the other was given to his beloved Ah Fang.
According to Fang's last words, she had put the jade pendant in the child's bag when she sent him to Weishui River.
Therefore, if his child was still alive, then whoever had that Mystic Bird Jade Pendant was very likely to be his child.
Of course, the jade pendant could not completely prove anything, and it might have fallen into the hands of others. But as long as the child was still alive, Ying Zheng would have a more accurate way to verify his identity.
No one could deceive the First Emperor!
On the side, Wang Jian felt the change in the First Emperor's mood and didn't even dare to breathe loudly. He knew that the Eldest Young Master was the pain in the Emperor's heart and also the reverse scale in the Emperor's heart. He couldn't be easily touched.
A moment later, the First Emperor took a deep breath. The sorrow in his eyes disappeared and he regained the determination and solemnity of a ruler.
He looked at the young pavilion chief, Ying Zhan, who was standing on the Xianyang Pavilion, and his eyes were still deep.
This time, although he still did not find his eldest son, he found that there was such a young talent at the feet of the emperor. It could not be said that he had gained nothing.
Thinking up to this point, Ying Zheng opened his mouth and pointed at the few small houses, saying to Wang Jian,""Tell Wang Ben to come back, and you can spend the night with me outside Xianyang Pavilion.”
Wang Jian immediately nodded when he heard this.
His Majesty's words carried weight, so Wang Jian naturally had to obey.
Moreover, Wang Jian also understood that the main reason why Ying Zheng was willing to stay here was because of that young pavilion chief.
In Xianyang Pavilion, Ying Zhan watched as the group of people stopped knocking at the door and obediently walked toward the small houses. Only then did his tightly knitted brows relax."Men, take a pen and paper and follow me to register them.”
After saying that, Ying Zhan leaped into the air and landed outside the door from the sentry box that was dozens of feet high. His feet touched the ground, and his clothes and hair didn't touch a single hair.
If the world's two great Qinggong experts, Thief Zhi and Bai Feng, saw this, they would be shocked, because Ying Zhan's Qinggong was even better than theirs!
Who would have thought that there would be such an expert in the small Xianyang Pavilion!
In the small house, before the First Emperor and Wang Jian could light the lamp and sit down, Ying Zhan arrived like the wind."Please cooperate and register your identities. This is the law of Qin.”
At this moment, the First Emperor, Wang Jian, and Wang Ben didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
This young pavilion chief was really blind. They had already taken out their marquis token and emperor token, and had also cooperated with this pavilion chief to stay outside Xianyang Pavilion for a night. However, they did not expect this pavilion chief to still be unwilling to give up and actually chase after them to register their identities!
However, in the next moment, the First Emperor Ying Zheng's expression, which was one of not knowing whether to laugh or cry, suddenly froze, and the corner of his eye twitched!
Because he was shocked to see that under the moonlight, there was a black bird jade pendant that was exactly the same as the one in his hand hanging on the waist of this young pavilion leader!
