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

Chapter 70 Yingzheng returns to Qin
A month flies by.

Ying Zheng finished learning the knowledge about cultivating immortals, said goodbye to Lin Wuya, and prepared to return to Xianyang City.

At this time, the court of Qin State was in chaos.

"Xiangbang, it's been a month since you issued your credentials, why hasn't Tiandao Academy responded yet?"

"Immortal isn't busy teaching every day. It's normal not to come back for a year and a half."

"Why are you urging Xiangbang? If you have the ability, you can urge the immortal."

"Don't you look at what's happening with the Qin State now? There are rumors outside that the king is going to cultivate immortality and doesn't care about the Qin State anymore."

"There are even rumors that the prime minister has exclusive power and the queen mother is in charge, and the general will not be able to rule the country."

"Everyone be quiet, be quiet."

"It's so urgent, Jing, you little turtle grandson."

"What do you say, you say it again."

The courtiers on both sides pointed at each other's noses and began to curse, and the situation became more and more intense. Some generals even started fighting.

Lu Buwei and Mi Ling's expressions did not change. This scene had been happening for several days and they were used to it.

Mi Ling glanced at Lu Buwei with a smile and remained silent.

"The Queen Mother has arrived!" A loud slogan sounded outside the door.

The noisy courtiers immediately stopped making noise and stood on both sides.

Queen Mother Huayang walked into the main hall, followed by Cheng Yu.

"See the King and Queen Mother." All the courtiers saluted.

As soon as Mrs. Huayang arrived, Zhao Ji's eyes rolled up and she got up from her seat knowingly.

According to seniority, the older person takes the seat.

The Queen Mother Huayang sat on the seat and said: "A country cannot live without a king for a day. The king has gone to cultivate immortality and seek immortality. He has left the throne empty for more than a month."

"People within the country are now in panic and the country is shaken."

"I propose to re-elect the king!"

Queen Mother Huayang spoke quickly and calmly, and Lu Buwei's eyes suddenly widened.

Mi Ling quickly stood up and bowed: "The king has no heirs. Only his younger brother will be the prince. I propose to choose the prince as the king!"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately echoed: "Young Master Cheng is eighteen years old, he is in his youth, and he is very brave. He has the legacy of King Zhao. I feel that Master Cheng can take on a great responsibility."

"I second my opinion, Mr. Cheng is the best choice."

"I object. The king has lost his cultivation and is still alive. How can there be any idea of ​​establishing a new king?"

"I am also opposed to it. Before the immortal from Tiandao Academy returns the message, I do not agree with the establishment of a new king."

"How long should we wait for the king? One year, two years? Or ten years?"

"The king has obtained the method of immortality. For him, a few years pass in the blink of an eye, but for Qin, every day is a torment."

"Learn from the past and learn from others. Are there many examples of a country being destroyed without a king?"

"It's only been a month, and you already say that Qin is going to die."

"We, the Qin Dynasty, have hundreds of years of foundation and a strong army of tigers and wolves. Who dares to destroy us?"

The ministers quarreled again, and Queen Mother Huayang signaled to Cheng Xi who was on the side.

Cheng Xi was pleasantly surprised and immediately stepped out of the queue. He was neither humble nor arrogant, and said with a very serious face:

"My grandson is willing to take charge of the Kingdom of Qin for my brother Wang!"

"Brother Wang feels that Brother Wang is always worried about Qin and thinks about Qin. Now is the best time to cultivate immortality, so he has delayed his return. However, Qin cannot be without a king for a day."

"The boy is not talented. I am willing to take the throne of Brother Wang and assume the responsibilities of Brother Wang. When Brother Wang returns, he will be handed over to Brother Wang."

After hearing what Cheng Xi said, the ministers thought it made sense, so they asked Cheng Xi to stand up for a while, and then return the throne to Ying Zheng when he returned.

Lu Buwei's eyelids twitched. What he said was better than what he sang. Cheng Xi couldn't say such words.

He glanced at Mi Ling and Queen Mother Huayang out of the corner of his eye. It was obviously them who awarded it.

The situation is increasingly leaning toward the Queen Mother of Huayang. It is estimated that many people will not be able to accept the decision to let the courtiers choose a new monarch, but they can accept it as an escrow.

Everyone takes a step back and feels at ease.

However, Lu Buwei knew that power could not be put down once it was picked up.

Zhao Ji opened her mouth slightly and sneered: "The Queen Mother, you are quite good at planning?"

Queen Mother Huayang glanced at Zhao Ji: "Huh, the king is obsessed with cultivating immortals, and the country is in danger. This is a helpless move."

Cheng Xi took a step forward, saluted the ministers and said, "Everyone, please join me in protecting the country of Qin!"

"Oh, Mr. Cheng has the air of a gentleman." "Yes, he is polite, neither arrogant nor impetuous, and has the air of a king."

"I think this is a good idea. Let Mr. Cheng Yu take charge of Qin first."

"I also think it's feasible. We can't keep the throne empty forever."

The courtiers said something to each other, but their voices were not loud, but they reached Cheng Xi's ears.

He almost laughed out of his mouth, and said in his heart: Brother Wang, Brother Wang, you can just cultivate your immortality with peace of mind, and leave the Kingdom of Qin to me.

Zhao Ji and Lu Buwei strongly opposed and wanted to delay time.

"Okay, I think we can let Cheng Xi give it a try." An old voice sounded.

An old man with white hair walked in from the door.

Seeing the old man, Queen Mother Huayang smiled.

Zhao Ji and Lu Buwei's pupils shrank.

Shang Gong!

The leader of the Ying clan.

His words represented the clan's support for Cheng Xi.

Lu Buwei looked at the Queen Mother Huayang. Huayang was so scheming that she actually persuaded Duke Shang.

"Mr. Shang, why is this?" Lu Buwei asked in disbelief.

"A country cannot be without a king." Duke Shang replied calmly.

Lu Buwei looked sad and angry. A country cannot be without a king. You want to win for your son.

"Since Mr. Shang expressed his position, you should have no objections, right?" Queen Mother Huayang asked with a smile.

All the courtiers bowed their heads and remained silent. Silence meant giving in and compromising.

"Okay, I will tell the world tomorrow that Cheng Yu will replace the king and take over the throne!" Queen Mother Huayang stood up and settled the matter to avoid any trouble.

When Zhao Ji heard this, her legs became weak and she almost fell to the ground. As the king of dragons, he, the Queen Mother, would be cold sooner or later.

Lu Buwei clenched his fists, suppressed the anger in his heart, and prayed in his heart: Your Majesty, come back quickly. If you don't come back, the fate of Qin will change.

Queen Mother Huayang and Mi Ling looked at each other and smiled even more. The power of Qin State finally returned to the hands of the Chu family.

Cheng Yu stood there, trying his best to restrain his urge to laugh.

Finally, he could finally be king.

"Do you think I'm dead?"

A strong and angry voice sounded from outside.

The smiling faces of Queen Mother Huayang and Mi Ling suddenly froze, and Cheng Yu's eyes widened.

Zhao Ji suddenly stood up from the ground, and Lu Buwei's body was shaken.

A figure in white clothes, a majestic young man with lightning eyes, walked slowly from outside the hall.

After a month in Tiandao Academy, although Ying Zheng's level has not improved, he has been practicing the 'Emperor's Heart Sutra', and his aura has become more majestic, and his imperial aura has begun to show.

Lu Buwei rubbed his eyes, unable to believe that Ying Zheng had undergone a huge change in temperament. When he saw it was a real person, he immediately ran in front of Ying Zheng.

"Hahaha, hahaha." Lu Buwei patted Ying Zheng on the shoulder and laughed loudly, then knelt down and shouted: "Lü Buwei kowtows to the king, the king will never see you for thousands of years, never for thousands of years!"

"My son is back, my son is back, hahaha." Zhao Ji's mood was ups and downs, and Zhao Ji shouted happily in excitement.

The courtiers reacted and immediately knelt down and shouted: "Kowtow to the king, the king will live forever."

Ying Zheng looked forward, walking steadily towards the throne step by step.

Suddenly, he stopped in front of Duke Shang and helped the elderly Duke up: "As the head of the Ying clan, Duke Shang does not need to perform this great ceremony."

Duke Shang had no expression on his face, and he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty is serious, and the etiquette must not be abolished."

When Ying Zheng saw Duke Shang's expression of displeasure, he was already confused. Why did Duke Shang come to the court meeting today?Glancing at the Ying clan members and Cheng Xi who was kneeling on the ground, he knew the reason in his heart.

Without the support of Duke Shang, it would be impossible for Cheng Yu to ascend the throne. The Queen Mother of Huayang must have promised to invite Duke Shang. The position of the Ying family in the court was getting lower and lower, and because there was no outstanding person, they were almost eliminated. The Chu clan and Lu Buwei were squeezed out.

Duke Shang came here to gain the Ying family's position in the court.

"Mr. Shang, I want to make Ying Ying a general!" Ying Zheng said firmly. To win over the Ying family, it would be better to directly win over the patriarch. Yingcheng is his eldest son, and Gong Shang values ​​​​them extremely.

Lu Buwei, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly turned his head, his face showing surprise.

Duke Shang's eyes trembled. The general was the head of the military generals. He had a very high position and was in charge of Qin's military power.

Compared with Queen Mother Huayang's promise, her conditions were just like a petty bargain and too petty.
