Chapter 798 This Old Man Is Very Bad! The Qin Dynasty Is in Danger and Is About to Fall!
Inside the Longtai Palace, the court officials looked at each other in bewilderment.
Sun Ning whispered in disbelief: "Just, just summoned like that?"
"Is Marquis Wenxin waiting outside the palace gate?"
Ying Po shook his head and sighed: "Your Majesty, you are too lazy to pretend!"
Li Si murmured with sharp eyes: "Sure enough."
"This time, Marquis Wenxin returned to the court because of Your Majesty's intention."
"In the past, Marquis Wenxin almost controlled the government without the support of Your Majesty. Today, Marquis Wenxin is trusted by Your Majesty. I don't know what this court will become!"
When Ying Zheng directly summoned Marquis Wenxin, even generals like Li Xin and Yang Hu who were not familiar with government affairs suddenly realized it.
Wang Wan's so-called abdication was just a cover.
Ying Zheng had already made his decision!
The officials had different thoughts, but they had to accept this inevitable fact, and turned their eyes to the palace gate at the same time.
There, a figure wearing the court dress of a marquis walked up the stairs.
He seemed to have no joy of being a prime minister, but took every step steadily, forcefully and carefully until he crossed the threshold and officially stepped into the palace.
His silver-white beard fluttered in the wind, and his silver-white and slightly sparse hair was carrying the crown with some difficulty. His face was full of wrinkles and had several age spots, which made it hard to believe that this person was the famous Wenxinhou.
Lü Buwei didn't care about the eyes of others, but just looked at Ying Zheng with his eyes, then bowed and said in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty, I am Wenxinhou Lü Buwei, and I pay my respects to the king!"
Ying Zheng straightened his back unconsciously, and his eyes could not help but become more solemn.
Time has taken special care of Lü Buwei.
Five years ago, Lü Buwei looked like a middle-aged man in his forties.
But today, Lü Buwei has become old, like an old man in his seventies or eighties.
But his back was still straight, even though his eyes were a little cloudy, he was still firm, persistent and even paranoid!
Seeing that Lü Buwei, who was both his teacher and father, enemy and friend, was standing in front of him again, Ying Zheng was silent for more than ten breaths before he spoke in a cold voice: "No need to be polite, please take a seat."
The eunuch immediately brought a soft couch.
However, this soft couch was no longer placed on the high platform like five years ago, but under the high platform.
Even if this soft couch was placed in the first place under the high platform, it was still under the high platform!
All the court officials showed some thoughts in their eyes, and Lü Buwei also looked at the soft couch steadily.
Under the worried gaze of Ying Chengjiao, Lü Buwei finally did not say much, but just bowed his hands and saluted: "Minister, thank you, King!"
When Lü Buwei sat down, Ying Zheng asked in a deep voice: "What does Wenxinhou think of the current Qin?"
Ying Zheng's voice was still cold, but there was some expectation in Ying Zheng's eyes.
I admit that my strategy has some problems, and I need Zhongfu to come out again to achieve greater goals.
But what I have done in these years is enough to make me proud, and it is enough to prove that I can still achieve great achievements even without Zhongfu!
Ying Zheng waited for Lu Buwei's praise. Ying Zheng thought that even if Lu Buwei wanted to point out the current shortcomings of the Qin Dynasty, he should at least praise him first.
But Lu Buwei said solemnly: "I see that the current Qin Dynasty is in danger, and there are signs of national destruction!"
"Every time I think about the shame of the previous king's entrustment, I worry and sigh day and night!"
All the court officials such as Wei Zhuang and Wei Liao were dissatisfied.
Lu Buwei's words can be said to be a complete denial of the efforts and contributions of the Qin monarchs and ministers over the years, and even accused them of bringing the Qin Dynasty to the brink of national destruction!
The expectation in Ying Zheng's eyes was instantly replaced by anger, and his voice became colder and harder: "What Marquis Wenxin said is alarmist!"
"My Great Qin has the help of the earth dragon and the blessing of the thick soil. It has occupied Handan and conquered Zhao under the watch of the ancestors of my Great Qin. It has fulfilled the will of the previous kings."
"Even if the heaven and earth congratulate my Great Qin, how dare Marquis Wenxin say that my Great Qin will perish!"
Lü Buwei refuted mercilessly: "I think that the king and the ministers in the court have misunderstood a fact."
"The thick soil has indeed brought down the blessing, and the earth dragon has indeed Helping our Qin army to defeat the enemy. "
"However, the one that the thick soil loves is not Qin, but Chang'an Jun!"
"The one that the earth dragon helps is not Qin, but Chang'an Jun!"
"The reason why the Great Qin can be blessed by the thick soil and helped by the earth dragon is because Chang'an Jun is used by Qin, not because our Great Qin has received the favor of heaven and earth!"
"Otherwise, why is it that only Chang'an Jun in our Great Qin has the ability to communicate with heaven and earth and drive the earth dragon, while all the priests and witches in Fengchang Yashu have no such ability!"
Faced with Lu Buwei's words, Ying Zheng and all the court officials were speechless.
And Ying Chengjiao was a little panicked.
But Lu Buwei looked at Ying Le and asked: "Feng Changle, have the people in Fengchang Yashu been able to get the heaven and earth's show in recent years?"
Ying Le glanced at Ying Zheng and had to bow and said: "No."
If there was no Ying Chengjiao, Ying Le might have made up a few nonsense.
But Ying Chengjiao was in the court, so how could Ying Le dare to speak nonsense in the name of heaven and earth?
Lu Buwei looked at Ying Zheng again and asked: "May I ask the king, have you ever received any advice from the previous kings of the Qin Dynasty?"
Ying Zheng said nothing with a gloomy face.
Lu Buwei didn't get a response and didn't care, but bowed again and said: "It can be seen that this blessing of fertile land has nothing to do with the Qin Dynasty, the king, and the ministers in the court."
"The blessing of the fertile soil is not enough to prove that the Great Qin is prosperous, and it is even less enough to prove that the Great Qin is favored by heaven and earth!"
Ying Zheng was speechless!
Ying Chengjiao was on pins and needles!
Ying Le could only step forward and said in a deep voice: "Yes, the heaven and earth say: Chi Tian is dead, Xuan Tian should be established, the year is Wu Chen, and the world is auspicious!"
"This is enough to prove that the Great Qin is favored by heaven and earth!"
Lü Buwei said in a calm voice: "As I just said, the one favored by heaven and earth is Chang'an Jun, not Qin."
"The Great Qin has Chang'an Jun, and only then has it been favored by heaven!"
"The Great Qin has Chang'an Jun, and only then can it establish the Xuantian Dynasty!"
Lü Buwei directly separated the blessing of heaven and earth from the efforts of the Great Qin monarch and ministers, and attributed all the strange phenomena of heaven and earth to Ying Chengjiao alone.
Ying Chengjiao couldn't hold it anymore: "Marquis Wenxin, you can't say that!"
"The one favored by heaven and earth is the king, not me!"
"Let's take a step back. Even if I really got a few minutes of love from heaven and earth, it was just because of the king's great fortune. I am just a worker!"
"I treated Marquis Wenxin well. The clothes he is wearing now were woven by the women in my house!"
"How can Marquis Wenxin slander my innocence like this!"
"I am innocent!"
Ying Chengjiao couldn't help but panic.
The one favored by heaven and earth is the one destined by heaven.
The one destined by heaven is the emperor!
Ying Zheng is still alive and well, but Lu Buwei suddenly jumped out and said that the one favored by heaven and earth is Ying Chengjiao, not Ying Zheng.
Isn't this instigating discord!
After saying that, Ying Chengjiao glared at Lu Buwei fiercely, and then looked at Ying Zheng eagerly.
Brother, this old man is very bad, you must not believe him!
Ying Le hurriedly bowed and said: "I think what Wen Xinhou said is reasonable!"
"Chang'an Jun must be favored by heaven and earth, but the king is even more favored by heaven and earth!"
"If not, how can you get help from Chang'an Jun?"
"The king governs all the people, and the witch communicates with heaven and earth. This is the ritual of Shang!"
Ying Chengjiao finally breathed a sigh of relief and cast a grateful look at Ying Le.
You, the brain-filled freak, finally said a fair word for me!
Ying Zheng laughed loudly and said, "What Fengchang said is very true!"
"My brother is indeed favored by heaven and earth and favored by the previous king."
"Of course, I have the help of my brother, which is not enough to show that I am also favored by heaven and earth!"
Then Ying Zheng looked at Ying Chengjiao and laughed and scolded: "Why is my brother acting like that?"
"Could it be that my brother wants me to handle the sacrificial affairs after handling government affairs all day?"
Ying Chengjiao shuddered and hurriedly bowed: "I don't mean that at all!"
Brother, please stay away from these superstitious things!
Ying Zheng laughed heartily: "I am so lucky to have a brother given by heaven!"
Listening to Ying Zheng's laughter from the heart, Lu Buwei finally smiled.
Lu Buwei has been away from the court for five years.
And these five years are the first five years of Ying Zheng's personal rule, the five years when Ying Zheng transformed from a teenager to a king, and the five years of Qin's crazy expansion.
During these five years, Lü Buwei had only met Ying Zheng a few times, and more often than not, he could only judge Ying Zheng's temperament through information and government orders.
So when Lü Buwei entered the court again, he took the lead in throwing a test to Ying Zheng.
Now that the Qin Dynasty has gained 70% of the world's territory, Ying Chengjiao is no longer a necessity for Ying Zheng. Wang Jian, Meng Wu and others can replace Ying Chengjiao to complete the next war. Even if their abilities are not as good as Ying Chengjiao, they can use the strong national strength to help the Qin Dynasty take down the last enemy.
And Ying Chengjiao, who helped the Qin Dynasty seize most of the territory, is no longer a person who can be described as having great merits. His reputation as a great witch spread all over the world will make almost all kings unable to sit on the throne.
Lü Buwei urgently wants to know, in this case, will Ying Zheng, who was willing to break up with Lü Buwei in order to protect Ying Chengjiao, have the intention to kill him because of Ying Chengjiao's threat?
Will the once-favorable Ying Zheng become ruthless under the influence of power?
If Ying Zheng changes, Lü Buwei will arrange his family affairs before risking his life to join the game!
If Ying Zheng does not change, Lü Buwei's move will help Ying Chengjiao eliminate a hidden danger and let Ying Chengjiao live more safely!
Fortunately, Ying Zheng gave an answer that was enough to make Lü Buwei feel at ease.
The majestic figure on the high platform gradually overlapped with the figure who argued with Ying Chengjiao six years ago.
Lü Buwei couldn't help but stand up and bowed: "Minister, congratulations for the king!"
Looking at Lü Buwei's licking eyes, Ying Zheng understood Lü Buwei's intentions.
This congratulation is not for the country, but only for Ying Zheng!
Ying Zheng couldn't help but feel a warm current and joy in his heart, and his voice became a little gentler: "Wen Xin Hou, are you willing to return to the court to help me accomplish my great cause?"
Lü Buwei bowed his hands and said: "Of course I want to, but I dare not ask!"
The smile on Ying Zheng's face became brighter.
Then Ying Zheng heard Lü Buwei continue to say: "After all, the current Qin is in danger, and there are signs of national destruction!"
Ying Zheng: ( ̄ー ̄)
You are not done yet, right? !
