Chapter 77 Ying Zichu arranges his final affairs! As Zhao Ji arrived. Cheng Jiao's mother, who had been imprisoned in the palace before, and Cheng Jiao also came to Zhangtai Palace to pay a visit to Ying Zichu. After a moment of comfort. "All right." "I am tired." "You all should go back and rest first." "I still have some things to deal with." Looking at the two pairs of mother and son in front of him, Ying Zichu smiled slightly and waved his hand. "Yes." The four of them responded respectfully and then retreated.
Outside Zhangtai Palace! "It's a blessing that my sister is fine this time." Mi said to Zhao Ji with a smile on her face. "Yes." "It is indeed a blessing. Fortunately, my Zheng'er bravely led all the officials into the palace to rescue. Fortunately, Zheng'er was taken care of by the ancestral temple, otherwise Zheng'er would have been completely destroyed this time." There was anger in Zhao Ji's voice. Obviously. Zhao Ji did not have a good attitude towards Mi in front of her. After all, this time it was the Queen Dowager Huayang and the Mi clan who initiated the rebellion. If Ying Zichu was really imprisoned in the deep palace, if Ying Zheng's bloodline was really polluted and could not be proven, then Ying Zheng would lose his position as the crown prince, and his entire family would die. The ultimate beneficiaries are naturally Cheng Jiao and his mother. "elder sister." "I can only say that all this was their calculation, and I knew nothing about it." Mi said with a bitter look on her face. Naturally, she also felt Zhao Ji's anger towards her. "mother." "Cheng Jiao came here specifically to report the changes in the palace. This matter has nothing to do with them." Ying Zheng on the side spoke slowly. After hearing her son say this, Zhao Ji suppressed some of her anger, but only temporarily. She ignored Mi's mother and son, and directly took Ying Zheng's hand and walked towards her palace. "Zheng'er." "Go back to my palace. You've suffered a lot this time. I want to have a good talk with you."
Looking at the backs of Zhao Ji and Ying Zheng, mother and son. A hint of worry appeared in Mi's eyes. "Become a dragon." Mi said slowly. "Mother concubine." Cheng Jiao raised his head and looked. "You must be good friends with your elder brother in the future. You must not offend your elder brother, and you must not think about things that you shouldn't think about." "Although my mother and I were unaware of this incident, your grandmother, the Queen Mother, has pushed it to the forefront. If we are not careful in the future, we will be doomed." "The only hope for our survival lies in your eldest brother." Mi said slowly. "Mother, don't worry." "Brother is very good to me, and I respect him." Cheng Jiao nodded immediately. "That's good." Mi smiled slightly and stroked Cheng Jiao's head gently. As the second wife of the King of Qin, and having been taught and raised by the Queen Mother Huayang since childhood, how could Mi not know the situation they were facing this time? A little careless. Invincible. And Zhao Ji seemed to hold a grudge against them. In the Queen's palace. "Zheng'er." "You must be careful about what happens these days." "That old woman is determined to deal with you, and she even thought of such a despicable method as polluting the bloodline. If it weren't for your bravery, if it weren't for the ancestral temple, you wouldn't be able to explain yourself in this bloodline matter, and your mother's reputation would be ruined." Mention it. Zhao Ji also had a look of fear on her face. "mother." "It's passed." "The Queen Mother has been imprisoned, and all the officials who participated in the rebellion have been punished." "This kind of thing will never happen again." Ying Zheng comforted with a smile. "It won't go away so easily." "Zheng'er." "You must be careful of Cheng Jiao. This time the old woman's goal is to abolish your position as crown prince and support Cheng Jiao to take the throne."
"It's impossible that the mother and son really didn't know about it." Zhao Ji warned again with a serious face. She was really afraid of Cheng Jiao and his mother, especially Cheng Jiao. This young man, who had the support of a powerful family, seemed to have the potential to compete with his son for the position of crown prince or even the throne while he was still alive. "mother." "Don't think too much." "Cheng Jiao is a good person. He won't do anything wrong." Ying Zheng smiled and didn't take Zhao Ji's words to heart. Inside Zhangtai Palace! Ying Zichu sat on the bed, his face still looking sick. "Your Majesty." Seeing Ying Zichu like this, Lu Buwei's eyes also had some tears in them. these years. Since Ying Zichu was held hostage in Zhao, he waited for him to return to Qin. The two have been together for many years and have a deep relationship. Not real brothers, but better than real brothers. "Brother." "In my impression, you have never shed tears." Looking at Lu Buwei's appearance, Ying Zichu still forced a smile and joked. "Your Majesty." "Your Majesty, I was just blinded." Lu Buwei wiped the tears from his eyes with his hands, and then forced a smile. "This time it was thrilling." "But at least it had a perfect ending." "Zheng'er did not disappoint me. Although he is young, he has extraordinary courage." "He really is worthy of being the man of destiny predicted by the ancestor." Ying Zichu said with a look of relief. "Yes." "The prince's courage is unmatched. He will definitely become a wise and capable King of Qin in the future." Lu Buwei nodded affirmatively. "Zheng'er is not even thirteen yet, and there are still nine years before he can be crowned." "I originally wanted to crown Zheng'er myself and hand over the throne to him personally." “But now it seems that I can’t wait for that day.” Ying Zichu said with a wry smile. "Your Majesty." "Don't say that."
"You will definitely live a long life, you definitely will." Lu Buwei's voice was choked with sobs. This time. Lu Buwei understood it completely. This was Ying Zichu explaining to him his future affairs. "I can't hold out much longer." "Although Zheng'er is smart, he is still too young. It is too complicated to handle state affairs and court affairs." "He can't hold on." "Brother, I will have to trouble you more in the future." "I know your heart. Strengthening the Qin Dynasty and helping it unify the world is what you want, brother." "Zheng'er...you will definitely complete it." Ying Zichu looked at Lu Buwei earnestly. Lu Buwei didn't say much. He knelt directly in front of Ying Zichu. "Lü Buwei." "I am willing to swear allegiance to the Qin Dynasty until death." "Even if I die, I will have no regrets." Lu Buwei bowed his head. "I have already thought about it." "After I die." "My elder brother and Zong Zheng will serve as regents." "The royal seal will be held by Zheng'er's mother for the time being." "Although the queen is not a smart woman, Zheng'er is her only son. She will focus on Zheng'er and will never be partial." "According to our ancestral system, when De Zheng'er reaches adulthood, he will be crowned and take over the government." Ying Zichu said slowly. He had already thought about how to help Ying Zheng after his death. "Your Majesty, I will obey your orders in everything," Lu Buwei said respectfully. "I naturally believe in my brother." "With your brother's help, Zheng'er will definitely grow up to be a qualified King of Qin." "And this, please keep it for the time being, brother." Saying...
