Build Zhutian Taoist Academy, Ying Zheng begged me to let him enroll

Chapter 39 Ying Zheng Test
"what!"

Lu Buwei was shocked.

Ying Zheng was stunned.

Zhao Ji was happy.

The courtiers were in an uproar.

"How can a common man be worthy of cultivating immortality?" Lu Buwei cursed in his heart and regretted it endlessly at the same time.

When he first gave Lao Ai to Zhao Ji for fun, he was still able to suppress him. Later, after Zhao Ji made him a marquis, his power gradually expanded, and he adopted thousands of followers. His power in the court continued to grow, and he became his biggest enemy in government.

Ying Zheng gritted his teeth. He was strongly opposed to Lao Ai being granted the title of Marquis, but he couldn't stand Zhao Ji's pressure every step of the way. After being granted the title of Marquis, the entire harem became Lao Ai's monologue. He was dissolute and arrogant, and the look in his eyes was wrong.

"He can pass the test, and so can others!" Ying Zheng suppressed the anger in his heart and secretly vowed to cultivate immortality.

"Wang Er, I just said that Lao Ai is a capable person." Zhao Jixi smiled and looked askance at Lu Buwei; "How someone scolded Lao Ai at the beginning, now I know that I was wrong."

Lu Buwei was targeted, as if he had swallowed a coal briquette, and his face was extremely gloomy. Zhao Ji's words made him forget even his old feelings.

"Your Majesty, Marquis Changxin has brought face to the Qin State, so it is time to reward Marquis Changxin." Zhao Ji urged Ying Zheng.

As soon as Zhao Ji said this, several ministers took advantage of the situation and immediately stepped forward and said:
"Your Majesty, this move by Marquis Changxin has brought luck to the State of Qin, and he should be rewarded."

"I second my opinion. Marquis Changxin has set an example for us. His courage is commendable and he should be rewarded."

"I second my opinion. Marquis Changxin has outstanding abilities. He has risen from humble beginnings, and his understanding and perseverance are beyond ordinary people. He should be rewarded."

Lu Buwei's face turned dark, and he certainly had outstanding abilities. Otherwise, how could he serve the wolf-like Zhao Ji with such a glow on his face.

How can you understand skills without understanding? How can you persist for so long without perseverance?
"Your Majesty, Marquis Changxin values ​​​​trust and righteousness, and helps poor and talented people. The talented people are full of praise for him. This time as the king, he is the first test for the Queen Mother. He is loyal and in compliance with the times, so he should be rewarded." A minister said.

"Your Majesty, Lao Ai has been granted the title of Marquis, how about granting him the title of Yongcheng?" Zhao Ji said.

Lu Buwei's eyes widened, Zhao Ji, you really dare to say that.

"Yong City!"

Ying Zheng was shocked. His mother had a strange idea. Yongcheng was the old capital of the Qin State, and the ranking of the ancestors of the Qin State was still there.

"Queen Mother, this is absolutely not possible!" Lu Buwei immediately stood up and said, Yongcheng is larger than Xianyang City, how can the old capital be granted to someone with a foreign surname?

"Hey, I'm just saying, if you can't seal Yongcheng, then let's grant a county to Lao'ai." Zhao Ji took retreat as an advance and told her true purpose.

"A county!" Ying Zheng's eyes twitched. The Qin State had only sixteen counties, and he was going to be granted a county. Never in history had a person with little merit been granted a county.

"Your Majesty, I think what the Queen Mother said is absolutely true." Although a minister felt it was unreasonable, he still said it bravely.

"That's right, Marquis Changxin should be granted the title of a county. Without him taking care of the Queen Mother, the country of Qin would not be stable."

Zhao Ji looked at the two ministers who spoke with admiration, and said to Ying Zheng: "Prince, hurry up and issue an edict."

Ying Zheng looked at Lu Buwei, his eyes were slightly closed at this time, and he seemed indifferent to this.

"Old fox." Ying Zheng cursed secretly.

"enough!"

He immediately scolded the courtiers, knowing in his heart that these people were on the same side as Lao Ai.

Several courtiers bowed their heads and said nothing, and wisely returned to the queue.

Ying Zheng turned to stare at Zhao Ji and said loudly: "Why don't Queen Mother just tell him to make him the king and make him the king directly?"

"What ability does Lao Ai rely on to be granted the title of a county?"

"Recognize who you are? The mother of the king, the Queen Mother of Qin!"

Zhao Ji was yelled at by Ying Zheng and froze on the spot, her chest heaving up and down, and she said angrily: "Okay, you are getting older, you dare to disobey your mother, right?"

"Hmph!" Ying Zheng said with a firm tone that did not allow for objection: "Don't mention this matter again."

"Let's go to the square for testing."

Zhao Ji was so angry when she was contradicted in public that she stood still and said: "Whoever wants to go will go, I won't go to the Aijia!"

"Just Queen Mother Yi. If the Queen Mother doesn't go, we will go." Ying Zheng's voice came from the distance.

"You are a traitor, you are a traitor." Zhao Ji didn't catch her breath and rolled her eyes in anger.

The attendant supported her and carried her onto the chariot.

Whether she was really dizzy or fake, only she knew.

Lu Buwei smiled slightly and followed Ying Zheng's team without saying a word.

A group of people came to the square. Even though it was getting late, people's enthusiasm was not extinguished.

There was a long queue with no end in sight.

"miracle!"

When the courtiers saw the golden shadow standing outside the door of space, its momentum was overwhelming, and they were shocked and shocked.Such great power can only be achieved by immortals. If Qin got one, it would be enough to sweep the world and frighten the princes.

"See you, Your Majesty!" Meng Tian trotted over, knelt down and kowtowed.

As he arrived, the people who were queuing also knelt down, bowed their heads and shouted: "Kowtow to the king."

"My dear, please get up." Ying Zheng helped Meng Tian up and then turned to look at the people and said, "Everyone, please get up."

After the people got up, he couldn't wait to take Meng Tian's hand and go straight to test the spiritual pillar.

"Your Majesty, please line up."

Meng Tian stood there like a sculpture, refusing to budge no matter how hard Ying Zheng pulled.

"Meng Tian, ​​what are you doing, mustn't you be rude?" Meng Wu was also in the queue. Seeing Meng Tian being so disrespectful to the king, he immediately scolded him.

"It doesn't matter." Ying Zheng waved his hand, Meng Tian must have a reason for doing this.

Meng Tian knew that he had offended the king, so he explained; "Your Majesty, the immortal shadow is monitoring the test square. Anyone who dares to jump in line or disrupt the order will be killed immediately!"

"Regardless of status, regardless of gender."

"Thirty people have died for disrupting the square!"

Ying Zheng broke into a cold sweat behind his back. If he continued to be a king and forced himself to jump in line, wouldn't he be killed on the spot?

"My dear, you saved my life, reward me!" Ying Zheng said gratefully.

Then he looked at the ministers and said in a loud voice: "All the ministers, please line up with me!"

Ying Zheng was the first to go to the end of the queue and stand in front of him. He was a commoner who was covered in black and was a farmer.

At this time, his whole body was tense, sweating, and trembling violently.

How dare he stand in front of King Qin!
How dare he?
I never dreamed it would be so exciting.

"Your Majesty, why don't you stand in front of the common people?" He twisted his stiff neck, sweat soaked his head, and tried to force out a smile.

Ying Zheng frowned and said bluntly: "You want to kill me?"

puff.

The farmer made a pop and knelt down directly. Several bone-chilling swords were pressed against his neck. Anyone who dared to move would be killed immediately.

"Your Majesty, the common people don't dare. The common people don't dare."

"If you don't dare, just keep queuing," Ying Zheng said.

"Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty." The peasants thanked him profusely and once again stood in a long queue in fear.

The queue was long and the faces of those who had passed the test were full of disappointment.

Step by step, as he gradually approached the test spiritual pillar, Ying Zheng became anxious.

There was no qualified candidate from several teams, and his heart was hanging.

"qualified!"

The sound of qualification came from the spiritual pillar.

Attracting everyone for a moment, Ying Zheng stood on his toes and looked up, wondering who it was.

But before he could see clearly, the man entered the space door.

After a while, the standing golden shadow spoke.

"Third-grade qualification, unqualified!"

Everyone sighed for a while. They thought that a qualified candidate could successfully pass the first level, but they did not expect that they had third-level qualifications and did not meet the requirements.

It's just one level away, just like the Heavenly Zhe, it's full of difficulties.

"Is it so difficult?" Ying Zheng frowned and clenched his fists unconsciously.

Thinking of the woman named 'Meng', he had thought that the sixth-grade qualification was average, but he didn't expect that it would be so difficult to pass the qualification.

You can imagine how powerful the sixth-grade qualifications and talents are.

"Unqualified."

The mechanical sound brought Ying Zheng's thoughts back to reality.

The farmer left disappointed.

Ying Zheng waited in line for an hour and finally came under the test pillar.

He raised his head and stared at the intricate and exquisite spiritual pillars. The spiritual pillars emitted blue light, like a mysterious dark cave, arousing people's curiosity to explore.

He mustered up the courage, took a step forward, and slowly stretched out his hand.
