Chapter 314

If Brother Zheng kicked the bucket after ten minutes.

He didn't know if he would be affected too.

When he ran to the main entrance.

There was a new reminder in his mind: Brother Zheng's lifespan increased by 90 days!

This was also the reason he didn't continue to Brother Zheng's place.

He couldn't just run to Brother Zheng and say:

Brother Zheng, what are you doing? Why was your lifespan reduced to nothing all of a sudden?

If he said that, the matter would be unexplainable.

Anyway, Brother Zheng now had three months of lifespan.

Just pretend the lifespan thing never happened.

This was truly inexplicable.

But as long as Brother Zheng was fine, it was good.

It was already dark.

Whatever it was, talk about it tomorrow.

Thinking this, Ying Ying Zi Ye went straight to sleep.

The next day.

Qilin Hall.

The civil and military officials gathered here early in the morning.

Recent morning meetings were held every five days.

They saved a lot of trouble.

No need to get up before dawn every day.

The people who came today were very complete, even the Princes who hadn't attended court for a long time came.

The civil and military officials were whispering about some things that had happened recently.

The Great Qin Daily and the Great Qin Academy were the hottest topics in recent days!

And this Great Qin Academy had already started being built in the counties around Xianyang City.

I believe it won't be long before more academies can be opened.

As time goes on, it will definitely make the entire Great Qin's counties full of Great Qin Academies.

It was almost time for the morning court.

The ministers stood for a while.

But His Majesty had no intention of coming out at all.

Not even the Regent, the Ninth Prince, had come.

This left more people confused.

"It's already time; why hasn't the morning meeting started?"

"Exactly, it's really strange today; there's not a sound."

"Could it be that His Majesty forgot that there was a morning meeting today?"

"That can't be; even if His Majesty forgot, the Regent, the Ninth Prince, should have come, right?"

"Could it be that we remembered the date of the morning meeting wrong?"

"This... did so many of us remember it wrong?"

General Zhang Han stood at the front of the crowd.

He was also a bit anxious in his heart.

It was already this time; why hadn't the Ninth Prince come yet?

Anyway, His Majesty wouldn't be coming.

If the Ninth Prince didn't come either, then should he read this edict or not?

But if the auspicious time passed without reading the edict, who would bear the blame?

Anyway, he didn't want to be the scapegoat.

"The Ninth Prince might be on his way; I can only read the edict first."

General Zhang Han thought to himself.

"Ahem..."

"Everyone, be quiet; it is time for the morning court."

"This general has an edict from His Majesty; I can only read it first."

Feng Quji heard there was an edict and stepped out of the ranks.

"General Zhang Han, the Ninth Prince hasn't arrived yet; is it appropriate to read the edict?"

Feng Quji wasn't speaking for Ying Ying Zi Ye; this was just the rule of Great Qin.

And the Ninth Prince's recent actions had already won him over.

Great Qin having the Ninth Prince was a great honor.

And recently, I heard that the Ninth Prince had invented many strange things.

General Zhang Han glanced at Feng Quji; in the court, the relationship between civil and military officials was not very harmonious.

This was also intentional by His Majesty—the Emperor's art of mind, maintaining balance.

"Prime Minister Feng, this general is also in a difficult position; the Ninth Prince hasn't arrived, so logically, the edict cannot be read."

"But the time has come; if I don't read the edict, the person His Majesty will punish is this general."

"I cannot bear this blame."

"Can you bear this blame?"

"I can only wait for the Ninth Prince to come later and show him the edict."

"Seems... that makes some sense." Feng Quji retreated and stopped interfering.

He wasn't stupid; such a major matter had nothing to do with him in the first place.

Why should he bear this responsibility?

This scapegoat was too big; he indicated he couldn't bear it.

Originally, the civil and military officials also wanted to obstruct it.

But the conversation between Prime Minister Feng and General Zhang Han made them shrink back.

This responsibility was so big that even the Prime Minister didn't want to bear it, so they wanted to bear it even less.

Therefore, everyone watched quietly and stopped talking.

General Zhang Han looked at the civil and military officials in front of him and took out the edict.

"Edict from His Majesty, the Qin Qin Shi Huang."

The civil and military officials all knelt down to listen to His Majesty's edict.

The Qin Qin Shi Huang's edict says:

Ying Ying Zi Ye is learned and talented; in literature, he can settle the world with a pen, and in martial arts, he can stabilize the universe on horseback.

He has great achievements for Great Qin, whether it is auspicious signs, tax reform, suppressing rebellions, etc...

His actions have already exceeded the sum of all the Princes.

Therefore: Appoint Ying Ying Zi Ye as Crown Prince!

Let the immortals, demons, ghosts, and gods all hear this!

Boom~~!

The entire Qilin Hall exploded.

When General Zhang Han just read the first sentence of the edict.

Some people vaguely guessed something.

Until General Zhang Han finished reading the edict, the civil and military officials were completely boiling!

Great Qin has appointed a Crown Prince!

This position of Crown Prince had been unsettled for a long time, and many ministers were always a bit uneasy in their hearts.

After all, His Majesty's health had not yet fully recovered, and they were truly afraid of any accidents.

Now, this position of Crown Prince finally had a destination.

But this position of Crown Prince belonged to Ying Ying Zi Ye. ===== CHAPTER 316 =====
