Whoosh--
The entire court was in an uproar.
Their eyes widened as they stared blankly at Ying Zheng, then turned to look at Zhang Ye, who had been conferred the title of Imperial Advisor by Ying Zheng.
F * ck!
Did he just become the Great Qin Empire's Imperial Advisor?!
It could be said that he had reached the heavens in one step!
The first time he entered the palace to meet the First Emperor, he was immediately conferred the title of Great Qin's Imperial Advisor. From then on, he enjoyed an illustrious status that was second only to one person and above tens of thousands of people.
How enviable was this?
"I admire you!"
"When I think about how I spent decades to climb to my current status, I realize that I've been in this position for a long time. Decades of toiling like a cow or a horse was not as good as Venerable Zhang Ye's meteoric rise in a day!”
"Damn it! Jealousy has torn me apart."
"However, if the person who was conferred the title of Great Qin's Imperial Advisor was Mage Zhang Ye, it would make sense. After all, Venerable Zhang Ye was an immortal master personally acknowledged by the First Emperor! A terrifying existence that could chop off his own head and still not die!”
“……”
Although all the civil and military officials present were shocked by the fact that the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, had personally appointed Zhang Ye as the Imperial Advisor of the Great Qin Empire, they could still accept this result.
Previously, they had witnessed the shocking scene of Zhang Ye not dying even after chopping off his own head, which made them have extremely high respect and fear for Zhang Ye.
This god-like and terrifying technique had deeply impressed all the officials present.
Therefore, he had no choice.
They did not question Zhang Ye's appointment as Great Qin's Imperial Advisor. Instead, they felt that it was reasonable.
If one were to say who was the most unhappy in this matter, the one who bore the brunt of it was naturally Zhao Gao!
Zhao Gao, who was standing beside Zhang Ye, clenched his fists tightly. The flames of jealousy were about to materialize and shoot out from his eyes.
He stared at Zhang Ye, burning with jealousy.
Why?
He had been working for Ying Zheng for more than ten years, and that was how he managed to get to his current position as the Commander of the Zhongche Mansion, becoming the most popular person in the eyes of the other party and being respected by all the officials in the imperial court.
However, this young boy in front of him had directly ascended to the heavens in one step. From a small commoner, he had become the Imperial Advisor of the Great Qin Empire, who was second only to one person and above all others, and was highly regarded by the First Emperor, Ying Zheng.
Thinking of this, Zhao Gao looked at Zhang Ye with an even colder gaze.
However, no matter how unhappy he was, he did not dare to openly defy the First Emperor's judgment. He could only suppress his displeasure and hope to find an opportunity to teach this damned kid a lesson in the future.
In short.
This feud had been formed.
It couldn't be resolved easily.
Zhao Gao, who was shrewd and ruthless, naturally regarded Zhang Ye as a thorn in his side. Once he found an opportunity, he would definitely kill Zhang Ye without hesitation.
"Great Qin's Imperial Advisor…"
Zhao Gao snorted. He was not happy, but at the same time, he was wary of Zhang Ye.
In the surroundings.
Many pairs of eyes filled with envy, respect, and flattery gathered on Zhang Ye. In an instant, Zhang Ye became the most popular person in the entire court.
Even the eldest son of the Great Qin Empire, Fu Su, and the Prime Minister, Li Si, these two powerful figures, could not help but take the initiative to congratulate Zhang Ye."Congratulations, Mage Zhang Ye."
The two of them had obviously realized it.
The First Emperor, Ying Zheng, valued Zhang Ye very much.
Otherwise, he would not have been so decisive as to personally make Zhang Ye the Great Qin Imperial Advisor.
It was obvious.
Just based on the spell that allowed him to live without being beheaded, Zhang Ye had already deeply convinced the First Emperor, who was a ruler with extremely high standards.
From now on, Zhang Ye would definitely be the most popular person in Ying Zheng's eyes, and he would be valued even more than Zhao Gao.
There was no doubt about it.
It was because of this that even Prime Minister Li Si, who was above everyone else, had to be polite to Zhang Ye. After all, having one more friend was better than having one more enemy.
Fu Su had the same thought.
Although his identity as the eldest son was very stable, and almost no prince could threaten his status, he was still a prince. However, due to the fact that Zhang Ye's spell was too terrifying and unpredictable, even Fu Su had the idea of befriending him.
Facing the friendly gazes of Fu Su, Li Si, and most of the officials present, Zhang Ye smiled and nodded in response. Other than a certain gloomy man with a feminine appearance, Zhang Ye would not offend any other officials.
As for who this gloomy man was? Who else could it be other than Zhao Gao?
"Alright. Since Mage Zhang Ye had already become the Great Qin Empire's Imperial Advisor, his treatment could not be too bad.”
Ying Zheng solemnly ordered again," Internal historian, you will be responsible for finding a mansion for Master Zhang Ye, as a permanent residence for him.”
"In addition…"
"Choose ten maids from the palace and send them to Master Zhang Ye's residence as servants. You will also be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold.”
Other than making Zhang Ye the Imperial Advisor of the Great Qin Empire, Ying Zheng had generously rewarded him in all aspects, including his mansion, servants, and money.
From this, it could be seen how much importance Ying Zheng attached to Zhang Ye.
Such treatment was comparable to Prime Minister Li Si!
Therefore, he had no choice.
After hearing the reward that Ying Zheng had given Zhang Ye, all the officials in the court were immediately envious, and their eyes turned red. The envy in their hearts made them lose their will.
This mage called Zhang Ye…
Was he the son of the First Emperor?!
This treatment was too good!
"Thank you for your reward, Your Majesty."
Of course, Zhang Ye gladly accepted Ying Zheng's reward.
Compared to the miserable experience of being chased out of the Daoist sect by the sect leader Xiaoyao Zi, he had only just arrived at Xianyang Palace and met the First Emperor for the first time. The other party had immediately thrown away an incomparably generous reward. This could not help but make Zhang Ye sigh with emotion.
As expected.
It was the right choice to join First Emperor Ying Zheng.
Zhang Ye felt enough respect here.
The respect from the ruler of a country!
After the reward, Ying Zheng's face turned especially serious. He looked at Zhang Ye with a solemn expression and said bluntly,""Master Zhang Ye, you should stay in Xianyang for a few days to recuperate and adjust your condition to your best.”
"Three days later, you will lead me and all of my officials to the stage to offer sacrifices to the heavens and represent Great Qin in praying to the heavens. I hope you can make the appropriate preparations.”
"This time, I have already solemnly announced to the world that I will be worshipping the heavens. Therefore, no matter what happened three days later, this worship ceremony could not be declined.”
"If anything goes wrong during the worship ceremony three days later, I won't be the only one who will lose face, but the entire Great Qin Empire! This matter would definitely become the laughing stock of the people of the world!”
"Thus, I hope that Venerable Zhang Ye can be prepared. He had to make sure that nothing went wrong during the sacrifice.”
Hearing this,
"Of course." Zhang Ye nodded.
Then,
Ying Zheng looked at Li Si and ordered,""Li Si, you'll be in charge of the Shadow Secret Guards for the next few days. He could not allow the anti-Qin elements to infiltrate Xianyang City and run amok.”
"I have a premonition that these restless anti-Qin elements will most likely cause trouble during the Heaven Worship Ceremony three days later.”
"So…"
"Your task is arduous. You must ensure that within these three days, the anti-Qin elements lurking in Xianyang City are found. This was to prevent the remnants of the Six Nations from sabotaging the process of the Heaven Worship Ceremony.”
Li Si quickly cupped his fists and replied,""As per Your Majesty's orders, I will definitely find the anti-Qin elements hidden in Xianyang to prevent them from disrupting the Heaven Worship in three days.”
"Zhao Gao, your task is equally difficult. I want you to lead the net and infiltrate the inner circle of the anti-Qin elements to spy on whether these restless anti-Qin elements are plotting to destroy the Heaven Sacrifice Journey. If this group of anti-Qin people makes any strange movements, you must report the news to me immediately.”
Zhao Gao lowered his head.
"In short, you must remember this. There must not be any mistakes during the worship three days later. I will not allow any accidents to happen when I am on the stage to worship the heavens!”
It could be seen from this.
How much importance did Ying Zheng attach to this trip to worship the heavens?
In the end…
Ying Zheng gave another order,"In order to make the worship ceremony three days later even grander. I have decided that I will personally announce to the world that I have appointed Master Zhang Ye as the Imperial Advisor of the Great Qin Empire! I want everyone to know that Great Qin has an incredible Great Mage!”
As Ying Zheng's voice fell.
The officials were shocked.
They all looked at Zhang Ye with envy.
Zhao Gao was jealous.
"Retreat."
Moments later.
After Ying Zheng announced his retreat, all the officials began to retreat, leaving the court one after another.
Zhang Ye followed the crowd and left Xianyang Palace.
Immediately after.
Zhang Ye, who had just left Xianyang Palace, was led by the white-haired internal history to the mansion that the First Emperor had personally bestowed upon him.
This time, Zhang Ye had a firm foothold in Xianyang.
