Chapter 46: Storms in Xianyang, Ancient and Modern
“The news is back, Your Majesty.”
“The two kingdoms of Zhao and Chu, Lu Buwei and the others, still did not fight after all.”
>The breeze is gentle.
The warm sea breeze blows in the tall attic pavilion, and the chessboard is black and white.
In front of the jade-carved chess board, a tall middle-aged man was talking to a Confucian scholar wearing a black and white robe.
The middle-aged man has a calm posture. He is wearing a gilded dragon robe that covers the sea. The sleeves of the thick robe are densely embroidered with the map of Clouds and Seas. On his white wrist, there is a gold Silk white jade bracelet.
His eyes were calm, and he glanced at the chessboard. His attitude was obviously indifferent, but in his movements, he carried a kind of majesty without anger.
Zi Hei Luo Zi, Qi Wang Jian chopped down the unformed dragon of the Confucian scholar in the air, and spoke: "This is what was expected. Although King Qin Zhuangxiang died, the national power of Qin lies in Lu Buwei and Empress Dowager Hua Under the control of Mrs. Yang, although it is weak, it is not fatal."
"More than 400,000 soldiers and horses were mobilized to arrive at the border, and there were even gas refiners and alchemists accompanying them. Oh, King Chu Kaolie and Zhao Xiaocheng. The king is not a fool, how could he leak out the rear and attack Qin instead? This time Zhao and Chu took advantage of the prince's accession to the throne, but it was just a demonstration."
Facing Qi Wangjian's words, the black and white Confucian scholar opposite, Tian Sheng, the Jimo doctor who is the highest military and political officer in the Jimo region of Daqi, also nodded slightly.
They are also very aware of the current situation in Qin.
The power of the Empress Dowager, Mrs. Huayang, is deeply rooted. Since the beginning of the Empress Dowager Era, the Mi family has become more powerful. Even King Zhuangxiang of Qin recognized the Empress Dowager, Mrs. Huayang, as his mother. Only then did he become the king of Qin.
Coupled with the powerful group composed of Lu Buwei and the current Queen Mother Zhao Ji of the Qin Dynasty, after the death of King Qin Zhuangxiang, although the current Qin State has weakened due to the conflict between the two, the foundation is still there. It's not a good time to attack.
"Your Majesty, in five days it will be the day when Ying Zheng, the eldest son of the Qin State, will ascend the throne. The Qin State has already sent an invitation. Do we want to send envoys there?" Jimo doctor Tian Sheng dropped a son. , ask respectfully.
"This so-called Ying Zheng is just a puppet at the age of thirteen. Now the Qin State is under the control of Lu Buwei and Mrs. Huayang," Qi Wangjian said calmly: "Go and see, even if it is Let's go through the motions and take a look at what kind of jokes this so-called Ying Zheng can make at the enthronement ceremony."
"This time, with the help of Zhao and Chu's attacks, the enthronement time has been shortened for two months. At this ceremony, I wanted to see how Lu Buwei would continue to suppress him."
Jimo doctor Tian Sheng nodded lightly: "I will obey the king's instructions."
Qi Wangjian smiled. Nodding, a black stone fell, the chessboard situation suddenly changed, and several white stones were swallowed by it.
"I have pity on this Ying Zheng. He was the son of a proton when he was a child. When King Qin Zhuangxiang fled back to Qin, he didn't have time to take him away. In just two or three years after returning to Qin, he was treated as a puppet. Under control”
The calm voice echoed on the shores of the East China Sea.
Qi Wangjian accepted Qin's invitation and sent envoys to Qin, intending to attend casually purely from the perspective of etiquette.
Not only King Jian of Qi, but the other five countries, Zhao, Chu, Yan, Han, and Wei, were also invited to send envoys.
Their purpose is basically the same as that of King Jian of Qi. They plan to send envoys to Xianyang to watch jokes and see what interesting things Ying Zheng can cause during the so-called enthronement ceremony.
By the way, let’s take a look at how this generation of Xiao Qin kings was suppressed by Lu Buwei and Queen Mother Huayang.
The storm is raging. The tide is rolling.
As time goes by, the entire Qin Dynasty is filled with joyous cheers. The city has begun to be decorated with lanterns and colorful lights, and the wide and thick city walls tens of meters high have also been washed with clean water. Read it again.
Throughout the Qin Dynasty, countless people were celebrating with their alchemists and praying for the eldest son Zizheng who was about to ascend the throne.
Under this seemingly calm and peaceful lake, there is an unimaginable huge undercurrent hidden.
In fact, facing the upcoming enthronement ceremony in five days, Ying Zheng also has a bit of a headache.
Although the second wonder ruins of the Alchemy Ceremony have now been buried in the earth, future generations do not know what the situation will be. There seems to be a slight fluctuation in the ruins tower.
But this wave of fluctuation is too small, even smaller than the wave that Ding Qin Jian just made.
Looking at the few small elixirs that seemed to be nothing in the emerald green light in his mind, Ying Zheng felt a little helpless.
“It seems that someone has indeed discovered the ruins, but not many people seem to know about it.”
Feeling the obviously tense atmosphere around him, Ying Zheng gently rubbed his eyebrows.
Although the enthronement ceremony has not yet started, since the incident between Quanyang Jun and Mi Qing, both Lu Buwei and Empress Dowager Huayang have obviously monitored him more. Even the spies around him All doubled.
Obviously the level of vigilance towards him is much higher.
However, although Ying Zheng was a little helpless about this kind of thing, he did not regret it.
Under the circumstances at that time, he had to fight back. Although he wanted to hide his clumsiness and develop secretly, he was not completely pretending to be a dead pig. He had to fight back against the opponent's successive provocations, but he just had to grasp it well. That’s enough
Reading the bamboo slips in his hand gently, Ying Zheng gently rubbed his eyebrows and sighed.
“It is a good thing to take the throne. If you take the throne, you will be able to control more national destiny and protect larger monuments.”
“But it is estimated that the enthronement ceremony this time should not be I'm too good at getting through it safely."
"I don't know what Lu Buwei and Empress Huayang are planning secretly."
"It's just a matter of relying on one hand to stabilize Qin. The sword is probably not enough, we still need to speed up the reflection elixir.”
While rubbing his eyebrows, Ying Zheng was thinking.
While Ying Zheng was thinking about finding a way to speed up the illumination of the second ruins, there was suddenly a burst of footsteps outside the door, and then a pretty maid spoke respectfully. .
"Your Highness the Young Master."
"The Prime Minister of the State asks for an audience."
